As I was training the woods, punching away at the oak tree with splinters flying everywhere a hooded figure approaches.
The women then make her self known to me, I step back and clench my fists because not many people can walk up on me without noticing.
The women then says” be at ease im not here to start fights thor.” She then walks to the oak tree and touches the places I punched only to say.
“not too bad I guess your power is assimilating nicely in a few years you will be a full fledged…..” she then looks at me with pity.
“if you make it a few years from now that is you will be a god.” Then then smirks and pulls her hand off the oak tree just a few inches and punches as if she is knocking over something and to my surprise she did knock over thing, she shattered the tree in half which was a few meters in diameter.
I look at her with wide eyes and say” I’m not the only one huh?”
“on Midgard no, and that’s the wrong question.” She then walks closer to me and pulls back the hoodie.
Simply put I was mesmerised, pale white skin so pristine, round glossy eyes, brown hair and eyes a perfect mix between muscle and beauty.
I stutter” your so beautiful….” I as I keep on staring at her features the word perfect was an understatement.
She smiles at my reaction” pffftt haha that made my day, im average at best where I come from.”
“I’m skada pleased to meet you thor.” As she extends her hand for a handshake.
I impulsively give her my hand, and a I feel a tight grip that snaps me back to reality.
I try to pull away but to no avail, she won’t even budge and I say” what the hell are you?!”
Skada then says” wrong question, the answer is what the hell are you?”
I the remember everything she said ’Midgard, gods and unrivalled beauty’.
I then calm down” so you’re a god huh? That ridiculous.”
“Is it though? After everything that you have seen? You stop knives with your skin, we can stop missiles and some even nukes.” And then she let’s go of my hand.
“then that would mean I’m a..” she then interferes and says, “demigod for now.”
“your power is not your own, a very important person gave you this gift because the power found you worthy but you see the first thing you did was murder your father in cold blood so I’m very sceptical and unfortunately not one can take it away from you so they will try to kill you before you become a throne at their sides.” Then puts her hands in her hips and sighs while shaking her head in deep thought.
“my power is given? Wait a sec you saw me kill my father?”
“that’s not important I don’t like to interfere with the mortals too much, but some do and they live among you now, and you already met one that goes by the name William.”
“pretty boy William? He a god too?” I say while looking shocked it’s just too much to take in, gods are real and I’m one of them what would I do and where will I go?
“yes, listen I know this a bit too much but remember there are people out for your head and I’m here to stop it, you are to ditch all loved ones as they are only in danger the more you stay with them, avoid them if you care for them, you can stay with me for the mean time a friend of ours lent me house to stay.” Skada says
“wait my mother can’t handle me leaving like this it would break her.” I say looking very serious.
Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.
Skada nods her head and says, “I understand were you’re coming from but listen to me, they will target her, and they are faster stronger and tougher than you, simply put she will die a very gruesome death.”
She then adds” if you want to protect them, you need strength and that’s the way your life will be from now, gaining strength to protect things you care about, that’s how Asgard has done it and all other worlds included.”
“go get your affairs in order, break their hearts, disappoint and cut ties that is the only way for them to survive.”
“I understand.” I run back towards my house, as I reach there I go to my room and pack my most important stuff.
And then go downstairs “mother I’m gonna go sleep over with nick. “I walk up to her and hug her and kiss her head.
“okay honey be carful and when are you going to be back? “she smiles at me.
My heart tightens at the sight of someone daring to hurt my mother I then say” soon mother very soon, now you don’t worry about me okay?”
“Why would I ever worry about you sleeping with nick?”
I smile and say” exactly……bye mom.” I leave and head towards nicks house.
Once I get there and ring the bell, he opens the door, “look who decided to show up, took you long enough fool, where’ve you been man?”
I come in quick and grab him by the shoulders and say” listen nick amma keep this short the less you know the better.”
Nick then says” wait did you kill someone and want me to help you bury the body?” he says like he expected it.
“what?! No listen I have to leave town, some heat is coming my way and I want you to take care of my mother any more than that and you are in danger!”
I let go of his shoulders and storm out the front door.
Nick still dumbfounded thinking what the fuck just happened.
As I ran through the street I saw skada lean against a wall she says “ you weren’t supposed to do that, you are really making things difficult, that tip you left is gonna cause problems in the long run.”
“aren’t you a god?, you are supposed to deal with problems so deal with this one.” I say not in the mood for some goddess wisdom.
“there are things beyond your understanding thor, you perhaps don’t understand the gravity of the situation, but you will soon very soon.”
“for now let us leave and head to our house it’s in secluded spot not far from the woods you train in.” she as we get ready to run.
A few hour later of running we reach our destination.
A 2 level house that’s on the small side that is a mix of wood and red bricks with a chimney on top.
“huh I hope no wolf can blow this house down.” I then look at her and she just pretends she never heard me.
We get inside and the place in clean there is a living room, but no kitchen and stair to the side that leads to one room almost as big as the small living room.
“you will sleep in the couch so get settled I will get us something to eat. “she then leaves quickly.
I get up and look for a bathroom as I as I was caught during training and a shower will do wonder now to rinse the stress off and cool my head.
I leave the cabin and go outside inly to see a small wooden hut thing, I walk and open it to see that it is a bathroom.
I start to shower and think.
People after me, a goddess is protecting me, how strong is she, why did I get this divine power and it can’t be taken back so why hunt me.
I then hear the door open.
“what in the world are you doing wasting my hot water. “she then looks at me naked but doesn’t have noticeable reaction, she then glances at thor jr but still no reaction.
Irritated by the look I then comment” I’m above average.”
Then doesn’t even comment and face was as still as stone, she then says”I got food so finish up quick and you might want to trim that stubble while you’re at it.”
She closes the door as I finish my business and clean shave my face.
I head to the cabin walk up to the table only to see burgers on it.
“a god that loves burgers?” I say.
“there are things that asgard lacks besides a king and it’s burgers.” She replies while chowing down hard.
After we are done eating, she was the first to start talking.
“you are weak to weak to even protect yourself let alone others.”
“there is nothing I could but wait for my power to assimilate fully.”I say while shrugging.
“you are wrong there are weak but skilful beings in the universe and you would bring shame to us if you lost against them, even the owner of your powers didn’t fully achieve assimilation until a few centuries ago, your power grows the more you push your self through battle and the harder the fight the stronger you will become.”
“and who should I fight if humans and too weak while gods are too strong.” I say contradicting her words.
“even a mortal is dangerous with the right weapon and the know on how to use it masterfully, that is why I will train you for years to come I have seen you when emotional you manifest clouds and control the weather and that’s good, because it means with a bit honing you control you power to some extent.”
“I know I haven’t said this but what is my power exactly?” is say curious as I have never really manifested it to see.
“your power is thunder.” She says with grin
“that means……”I stare at her wide eyed
“you are the inheritor of thor power and the fact that your name is also thor is mere coincidence.”
She then adds ”the bar has been set up high fake thor so will either live to it or die trying, you are like dull rusty blade but I will shape you and sharpen you now get up we got work to do.”
