When Hercules asks to know what he can do, Zeus refuses to explain further. However, upon visiting the Temple of Zeus again, Zeus explains to Hercules that fame does not equal heroism. Statues and merchandise are soon rampant with Hercules' face, and Hercules thinks that his fame will allow him to return to Mt Olympus. Hades continues to send beasts and creature against Hercules, but each and everyone is defeated, further making Hercules a hero in the eyes of the citizens. The defeat of the Hydra causes the citizens of Thebes to acknowledge Hercules as a hero, and further anger Hades. After finding out that cutting off one head produces 3 more, Hercules ends up crushing the beast with a rock slide. Hercules saves the little boys (actually Pain and Panic in disguise), but then has to contend with the 3-headed beast called the Hydra. Suddenly, Meg appears, and tells of two small boys trapped under a rock in a nearby canyon. In Thebes, Hercules tries to convince the citizens that he is a hero, but no one is willing to believe him. Pain and Panic manage to convince Hades that since Hercules is mortal, they can still kill him. Upon hearing this, Hades angrily grabs his assistants, realizing they have lied to him. Meg was actually trying to get the centaur to side with Hades, but claims Hercules spoiled her plans. After they leave, Meg meets with Hades, and his assistants, Pain and Panic. Hercules grows somewhat enchanted with her, before Phil gets them back on track to Thebes. On the way there, they are sidetracked by Meg, who appears to be menaced by a centaur. At Hercules' insistence to try what he has learned, Phil, Hercules and Pegasus head for the city of Thebes, which is plagued by a number of disasters and problems. After an intense period of training, Hercules grows from a scrawny teenager to a buff young man. Having become a grouchy, old satyr, Phil is at first reluctant, but finally relents. Hercules and Pegasus find Philoctetes (who is nicknamed 'Phil') on a deserted island. Zeus then provides Hercules with a winged horse named Pegasus, and sends them off to find Philoctetes. Zeus then explains that if Hercules can become a True Hero, he'll be able to return to Mt Olympus and rejoin them. Once inside the temple, the enormous statue of Zeus comes to life, first scaring Hercules, but then explaining how he is the young boy's father. Hercules sets off for the Temple of Zeus to find answers. As he approaches his teenage years, his father tells of how they found him, with a medallion bearing the symbol of the gods. However, not being completely mortal, Hercules is ostracized from the rest of society by his immense strength. However, the childless couple have taken him in, and raise him as their own. As Hercules is almost completely mortal, he cannot return to Mt Olympus. The two decide to tell Hades that they killed Hercules, but figure leaving him on Earth as a mortal will keep him from interfering in Hades' eventual plot. Hercules drinks almost every drop except one, when a childless couple disturbs the two minions' plan. Armed with a potion, the two kidnap Hercules, and take him to Earth. Hades assigns his minions, Pain and Panic, to turn Hercules mortal, and kill him. However, there is a possibility that Hercules could stop him. Returning to the Underworld, Hades meets up with the 3 Fates, who tell Hades that in 18 years, when the planets align, if he unleashes the Titans (who were imprisoned by Zeus), he will defeat Zeus and rule over all. The Lord of the Underworld, Hades, is also invited, though is not at all pleased with the birth of Hercules. On Mt Olympus, Zeus and his wife are celebrating the birth of their son, Hercules.
