Myth: Oddyseus and Cerberus and the Mino-bat-iren

Oddyseus and Cerberus: And The Mino-bat-iren

From the depth of the horizon, Odysseus and his crew were sailing through the crystal clear ocean. Just as they were going to rest Odysseus spotted the island of Crete and it made him recall about his time in Greece his homeland. Besides seeing a Greek island he saw something else: a beautiful island, a paradise with lush green fields towering mountains nearly as tall as mount Olympus or mount Othrys. Despite the beauty of the island there was something wrong with the island, it was abandoned. But the island looked like it could support human life with no exceptions. But after all the psychopathic and bloodthirsty monsters he had faced Odysseus could not miss the chance rest on land with no monsters attacking him and his few crew-members. Because of this decision he made a speech to his crew members.

"Land on island to the right of the sun! After months and almost years of battling disturbing monsters who have ate our beloved brothers, we are finally going to rest on a humble and monster-free island!" mouthed with pride. As he finished his speech Odysseus's crew member cheered and got to work incept for one of them Cerberus. Cerberus was a Greek eighteen a and half old boy who lived in Troy all his life. He lived there for ten years until the, Trojan war came along and he had to join the Greek or he would dishonor his father: Ares the God of war. Who had given him the blessing of being the one of the greatest sword fighter in history, ultimate strength that was compared to Heracles and other great fighters. He was a master of disguise and stealth. But he also knew that there might be a monster so deadly he would of made her parents: the Minotaur and Siren and grandmother Echidna proud.

As they approached the beautiful island, a cold shiver went down Oddyseus's vertebra. He saw in terror a school of massive waves bashing the ship and making massive holes and flooding massive areas in the ship. It was as if the the actual embodiment of the sea was trying to attack the ship but Oddyseus knew exactly what the reason was. Pholyphemus the Cyclopes said that Poseidon his father will curse them in their journey back home through the sea of monsters. Finally the curse has knocked down one of its biggest dominoes in its continuous dominoes effect until Oddyseus and his beloved crew make it to their beloved home or die trying. But despite the fear in Oddyseus's heart and eyes he fought on through the the wave as he knew that if he carried on in his current state he and his crew will die with fear as their final emotion, this was Oddyseus's golden moment to act like a true leader and with desperation but courage he mouthed:

"This will not slow us down we will not die from the curse we will conquer the wave!" And as Oddyseus finished he lit up a fire in each and single crew member especially Cerberus. Cerberus had a plan: since his father Ares was very close to Poseidon, the God of sea granted Cerberus the power of controlling water and waves if he wanted to. And if he combined his ultimate strength and controlling any form of water and waves he could decrease the danger and strength of the waves. Cerberus told Oddyseus his plan and Oddyseus approved the plan and so everybody went to work.

After hours of battling through the waves Oddyseus and his crew made it to the island. Everyone was worn out especially Cerberus as he used all his energy to stop the waves from destroying the ship and everyone on it but consequently the ship was torn apart and so they needed to find resources but for the moment Oddyseus and his crew rested and relaxed.

2 days later

After the two days of rest that Oddyseus had, he planned to go with a search party went of to find resources to rebuild the ship. After a while, Oddyseus set of to explore the land which left the camp to Cerberus, after a couple of hours Oddyseus had not come back which made Cerberus have a sneaky suspicion but he still remained patient and calm. After another two days Oddyseus had still not come back and so Cerberus decided to send him and a second search party to collect resources and find Oddyseus and his crew.

As Cerberus searched for Oddyseus and collected resources they stumbled across one of the mountains. As soon as Cerberus was near it he felt a presence of suspicion and evil. On the mountain he saw blood stains on the mountain and smelled a stench of rotten meat and blood that swarmed the mountain and his crew. And Cerberus knew that this was the home of the beast he feared of and because of that fact, he knew exactly where the location of Oddyseus and his party was.

"Boys we go up this mountain and fight the beast that might stand!" Cerberus blurted out.

"What beast!?" one the crew members replied almost immediately.

"A beast that is the son of the Minotaur and the siren!" He said with his expression darkenening. As soon as Cerberus finished his description Cerberus's search party gulped but a short while later Cerberus and his crew journeyed to the top of the mountain.

As Cerberus and his crew journeyed to the top of the mountain they came across a cave that was a perfect fit for a true blood-thirsty monster. The wall, the ceiling and the ground was blood stained with crushed bones scattered everywhere. As Cerberus was searching desperately for any other detail in this bloodstained hell, in Cerberus's relief but also horror he saw Oddyseus and his party fainted hanging on the on the ceiling. Just as Cerberus was going to sprint to Oddyseus to help him a terrifying beast came out of the depth of darkest part of the cave. The beast was as bulky as a bull and it had the legs and feet of a bull, a torso of a very bulky and fit human and had the arms and biceps of a very cumbersome human too but his hands were bat hands with claws as deadly as knifes. But the most horrific part of him was his head: it was a bull face with vampiric red eyes and massive and ghastly bat ears, and he had blood dripping down his grim and hideous jaws. His horrific fangs had flesh stuck between his teeth and they were blood stained by eating to many flesh and blood. He was at least fourty meters tall.

"Welcome my guests I am the Mino-bat-iren!" The Mino-bat-iren exclaimed in joy. The beast's voice sounded like a earthquake."Do you want to join my feast!" The Mino-bat-iren asked as if it was trying to tease Cerberus. There was a long but awkward silence until the Mino-bat-iren broke the silence "No? Fine! Your loss!" Just as the Mino-bat-iren finished his last speech of hospitality he did something that shocked and brought horror to everyone (especially Cerberus) eyes and hearts. The Mino-bat-iren lashed at one of the fainted crew members and as he woke up he screamed in horror as the horrible beast ate him alive with a biting action so disturbing it made everyone feel sick except for Cerberus.

As soon as the Mino-bat-iren finished his meal with a "un-manly" manner Cerberus struck with all his rage with his most beloved weapon called "head slicer" that was given by his father Ares which could damage humans and beasts. As he battered at the head of the Mino-bat-iren the monstrous beast blocked with his claws and the Mino-bat-iren struck back but Cerberus dodged the attack and struck once more but the Mino-bat-iren clearly had the advantage. He struck faster than Cerberus and did not just cut Cerberus badly but made him fly out of his cave and tumble of the mountain."Die grotesque, loathsome scum! Dare defy me you die!!!!!!!" The Mino-bat-iren screamed and snapped.

While the Mino-bat-iren cursed and cursed continuously Cerberus lay injured with cracked bones. He was gazing at the cave that he was standing inside then Cerberus had a superlative idea! Since he was the master of stealth and disguise he could disguise himself as the Mino-bat-iren's mother, the Siren and he could pretend to massage his neck but actually use his strength to snap the foul beast’s neck.

"Genius!" Cerberus whispered to himself with a little hint of hope and happiness. As he found and made his costume Cerberus went up the mountain and started his plan. As soon as he/she got into the cave Cerberus/Siren heard:

"Mother!" The Mino-bat-iren screamed with joy.

"Hello, dear!" Cerberus/Siren said frantically.

"Mama, I have captured a lot of men!" The Mino-bat-iren said like a kid.

"Well done dear! I am very proud of you." Cerberus/Siren said with sarcasm.

"Do you want one man?!" Asked the Mino-bat-iren.

"I am fine dear. After all that work do you want a neck massage?" Asked Cerberus/Siren.

"Yes please!" Mino-bat-iren answered with joy. While Cerberus was massaging Mino-bat-iren he grabbed his neck and pulled it."Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!" Screeched the Mino-bat-iren with pain and agony. 

"To bad beef head!" Cerberus said. As Cerberus finished his sentence he heard a snap and the Mino-bat-iren fell, his lifeless body did not move at all. The Mino-bat-iren was dead.

Everyone cheered for Cerberus as they collected Oddyseus and his party, then they disassembled the camp and they rebuilded the ship and they were on their way back to Greece again. While they were sailing Cerberus told Oddyseus the whole story.

"Well done Young man." Said Oddyseus.

"Thank you Sir." Replied Cerberus with pride.

"You will be remembered Cerberus but right now we must concentrate on getting back to Greece alive..." Odysseus said with happiness.

"Yes sir!" Cerberus said. And Oddyseus, Cerberus and their crew sail again to find another island where another beast may be waiting to lash out.........
