I might just be repeating myself but I wanted to make this a little more clear 

Let’s look as Zeus and Metis not as a God and Titan but as kingdoms,  Metis was the older kingdom and Zeus was younger.   
Apparently these two kingdoms at one time must have been warring with one another but at some point struck a truce.  Now from somewhere there came a prophecy that said that from this truce there would arise a new kingdom that would defeat the kingdom of Zeus. (It is this prophecy that interest me also!)   
Zeus of course couldn’t risk losing it’s power and so it conquered the older kingdom of Metis in hopes of quashing any uprising.   It was too late however, the new kingdom was already in the works and was quickly gaining power.   When it had gained enough support and was well armed, it revealed itself and took over it’s parent kingdoms, thus Athens became a world power.
