Despite the dampening weather it was not the clouds Zeus was sitting on that dampened him mood.

‘I should have known.’ Zeus said knowingly

‘every time, every single time…

You would have thought that after the apple incident, you would have taken it back.’ exclaimed Moses

‘I know, I know, but I thought they would have learnt by now.’ Zeus tried to pardon himself

‘you said the same thing the first time round! You’re loosing your touch mate, really letting yourself go!’ Moses shook his head in despair

‘he’s right you know G, what we need is a serious revamp-okay so I’ve got some ideas, I mean the whole lightning bolt, bring on the flood thing really isn’t going too well…we need something new, startling, something that’s gona draw attention to you…’ Atlas exclaimed coming out of the shadows

‘I thought I banished you?’ questioned Zeus to Atlas

‘yeah you did- but you see the thing is, I think they find it funny to keep firing rockets into the back of my head and to be frank I’ve had enough… I mean if I were you I would just get my great godlike finger and smush all those atheist scientist snobs…’ Atlas carried away with his deep seated dreams of getting his own back

‘oh and don’t forget those damn social workers… going down as animals hasn’t been the same since child welfare was introduced…’ Moses piped up

‘oh don’t you worry your pretty little head about that Moses, I’ve got a plan…’ exclaimed Zeus with superiority

‘you’ve always got a plan G… but this time I think I might like the sound of it!’ complemented Atlas

‘ever heard of Tom Cruise?’ asked G

‘no…’ the other two said in unison

‘well they will… and then… muhuharhar- *cough, cough* – then they’ll pay for Vietnam, with the use of fox entertainment their lives will be sufficiently ruined!’

Atlas and Moses exclaimed glances as though Zeus had really lost it this time, but then again knowing he always had an overall plan gave them hope that creating someone named Tom Cruise might just be the most evil plan he had come up with yet. Although something told them in the back of their minds that he had spent too much of his winter holidays with Lucifer.
