Anabelle smiled, but it instantly disappeared as Cory fell. "Cory?!" She knelt by his side, Nicki right beside. "Cory, what's wrong?" Alarm filled her voice.

Cory glowed silver now and his eyes shot open and he stood shakily, "W-what happened..."

"You just collapsed." Anabelle replied, putting an arm around his shoulder to steady him. Nicki watched him, questions flying through her mind, but she said nothing. "Cory...is there anything you're willing to tell me? You've been acting so strange lately." She glanced at Nicki. "I'm going to go check on Max. Call me if you need me." She walked over to the other side of the room, out of ear-shot. Anabelle noticed him glowing, but she bit her lip to keep from asking.

Cory managed to get his strength back, much slower then last time though. He looked at Anabelle, "I-I...I've begun to transform...I figured out how Ivy got so strong when I was in Greece...and I experimented."

"Tell me this...experiment, isn't going wrong. And how did Ivy get her power?" She replied.

"Its not going wrong, but not being a major god's child makes the process slower, and more painful...especially since I am a Son of Nyx, not a daughter of Nyx. Ivy got her power by absorbing a goddess...a minor goddess."

Anabelle eyes widened a little. "I guess I can't say I'm surprised. It sounds like something she would do."

"But...my part in this is I have done the same...but my transformation is different...because I absorbed...The Sky...as the Greek gods moved to each new civilization, Uranus did not...his body parts remained in the Agean Sea...my father he...you might say he gave me the power to...well absorb him." He bit his lip, "It was very risky...absorbing the first Ruler of the Universe, the grandfather of the gods, the father of the Titans..."

Her eyes really widened this time. "Your father....is a titan? Doesn't that make you a god, or half god, hafl titain?" She hadn't expected this. She knew something was up with him, but she hadn't thought it would be something like this. "Just how powerful are you?"

"My father was Uranus...he used Nyx to create me." He said with disgust, "So he could have me absorb him without being killed. I am half god-half lord of the univers, and that's why I've never belonged here. Now...now I have Uranus' power as well as my mother's."

"Woah. Guess we don't have to worry about Ivy now. She has no idea what she's up against."

He muttered, "I was never part of his plan...Seth was...Seth was always better than me at everything, he was stronger. His powers were better, his experience, he belonged at camp, for the time he was alive...but I was just Uranus' mistake." He turned away, "Next time Ivy comes, I'll show her what I really can do. I may be fighting for the gods, but Zeus considers me a threat...and I large one at that."

She grabbed his shoulder, and spun him around to face her. "You're not a mistake Cory. Maybe you are in your father's eyes, heck, maybe you even are in Zues' eyes, but you're not to me. And you never will be, no matter what happens. Ivy is a threat to the gods, maybe they don't recognize it yet, but they will. And if you defeat her, Zeus could change his mind. Even if he doesn't, well, too bad for him. He may be the king of the gods, but he's sure not the smartest." The sky rumbled, and Anabelle glanced up. "Yeah, yeah, no offense intended Zeus."

Cory looked at her and said, "I..." He smiled, "Thanks Anabelle, I needed that." He hugged her and didn't let go for a while.

"I knew you did." She hugged him back, a soft smile on her face.
