Hi everybody, this story just popped into my head one day and I started writing it. I wanted to change up the Thor story because I never liked Natalie Portman's character (although, I am a general Portman fan.) I don't have a lot written and I don't know where exactly know where the story's going, though I have a few general ideas. I think that, at least for the first part of it, I'm going to stick to the general Thor plot (just without Natalie, or Dennings, or Skaarsgard.) So, please Read and Review. And please, if you have criticisms, ideas, or anything, feel free to tell me.

I don't own Thor.

Intoduction: Commencement

"It is time," the Seer croaked, her voice void of any emotion as she spoke. "It must be done now or the Abyss will prevail and all the Earth will be consumed. Send the lightning, Odin All-father."

"She is where you have specified?" Odin replied, cautiously. He was a mountain of emotions compared to the eerily empty Seer.

"Yes," came her reply.

Odin had a look of hesitance on his face before he quickly (and needlessly,) schooled his expression and decisively slammed his staff down upon the rocky ground of the Seer's dwelling. The Endre lightning was sent, he could feel its heat firing through to the Earth's atmosphere and beyond, to finally strike an unsuspecting girl. "It is done, Seer," he said, a small trace of relief in his voice that, no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't hide.

"The poor girl," the Seer uttered with no sympathy in her tired voice. "She holds such power in her body. She has a long, hard road to walk."

"How will she survive down there, Seer, with the Hellhounds already snapping at her heels and no hint of what is happening to her?" Odin asked, perplexed, his voice quavering. This girl was the one thing standing in between all the worlds and their total destruction. Understandably, he worried for her survival. The Seer chuckled mirthlessly.

"Oh, she will have her protector."

"Who?" He asked.

The Seer looked him over with her sightless eyes and gestured for him to sit.
