Thor: The Dark World part two
I own only my original character, nothing else. I don't own White Wolf.
Sometime later, Thor believed that he should introduce Richard and Brian to the Warriors Three, or at least two of them, as one was away in his own realm.
He led them to the training arena, where Fandral and Volgstagg were sparring.
"Fandral, Volgstagg!!," Thor yelled and got their attention. "Come over here!! I have someone I want you to meet!"
They immediately opened the prince's command and walked over to them.
"Boys, this is Richard Potts. Formerly known as the Sword. Now the White Wolf."
"Ah! You're the one Sif and Thor are always talking about," Volgstagg said giving him a firm handshake.
"Nice suit," Fandral said, shaking his hand as well.
"Should see the country it was made in," he said. "I remember hearing stories about the Warriors Three in school."
"What's school?"
"It's what Midgard's educational system is called," he explained and they seemed to understand.
"So the one you came with, this Union Jack," Fandral said. "Is he an Avenger or one of these Justicers?"
"Justicer."
"Well I like him. He reminds me of me, a lady's man."
"I just like watching him get himself hurt!!," Volgstagg joked, and they all got a laugh out of it.
"Yes, he seems to be getting into more trouble than usual," Potts said.
"Well it was a pleasure to meet you after everything we've heard, but I'm afraid we must get back to figuring out who's better."
Thor and Richard rolled their eyes and the two warriors left to spar again.
"They're always like that," Thor said. "I must go and find Jane now, be seeing you."
"See ya."
After he left, White Wolf decided to go for a walk and soon he encountered Sif again.
"Hello again," she said walking by him.
"Hello to you too," he said. "Asgard is as beautiful as you and Thor said it was."
"Yes, it was an honor to be able to call it home. Tell me, where is Brian?"
"Last I saw him, I think he went to his room to 'writhe in pain in private,' as he said. He got thrown through another window, flirted with the wrong woman."
"Of course he did," she said, and Richard saw what looked slightly like jealousy. He wasn't going to ask about it, as he valued his life. "I shall go and see if he is alright."
"Or you just want to go see him," he muttered but she heard him as she left.
"What was that?"
"Nothing."
"You got lucky, I think," a voice said in front of him. He looked ahead and saw Jane with Queen Frigga.
"I think so too," Richard said. "How have you been so far Jane?"
"Good, actually. All things considered," she answered, then Frigga urged her onwards and they said their goodbyes, then Richard got a good idea.
He got into a horse and rode back down the rainbow bridge, and found Heimdall right where he left him.
Nice to see you again," he greeted.
"You as well," Richard said, walking over to gaze at the stars. "You know, you're everything the stories on Midgard say you are."
"Yes, they seem to be quite accurate. But I think you came here for something else."
"You're good. I was wondering if you could look at Midgard and see my wife."
"Of course," he said and set his gaze upon Midgard and soon found Natasha. "Hmm...it would seem your SHIELD friends are searching for you. She has quite the worried look on her face."
"Well, she'll understand when I tell her where I was," he said. "She's beautiful isn't she?"
"She is indeed," Heimdall said. "I've been watching you ever since Sif and Thor met you, and I must say you are quite an interesting man."
"I aim to impress," he joked and the watchman chuckled, then they heard something. "What is that?"
"Trouble," he said and they ran out just in time to see a massive dark ship come out of nowhere. Richard got out his vibranium gun out and Heimdall his daggers. As Richard fired at it, not doing much damage considering it was vibranium he was shooting. Heimdall climbed up a support of the bridge and was able to latch onto the ship and he got out his sword and stabbed into the ship and it went downward and it crashed and blew up and he landed back on the bridge.

"Nice," he said. Then they heard more rumbling and turned to see the mothership behind them, heading Asgard. "The Dark Elves."
"Yes," he said. "Now go!!! Go!!! Aid them in the fight!!"
Richard nodded and his mask appeared and he got on the horse and ride out back to the palace where the Asgardian soldiers were now in combat with the elves.
They threw grenades that acted like black holes and sucked in everything around them. Then there was one who wore no mask and he grabbed a grenade from another and threw it at the throne of Asgard, destroying it.
'I should follow him,' he thought to himself and he fought many of the elves along the way, thankfully the suit made the shots they got off him bounce off. He eventually followed him to the king and queen's chambers. Frigga saw him and smirked as the elf drew closer.
"Surrender, monster," she said losing a sword. "And you might survive this."
"I have survived worse, woman," he said arrogantly.
"Who are you?," White Wolf asked.
"I am Malekith, and I have come for what is mine."
Frigga then swung her sword skillfully while Richard came at him with his blades out, which he blocked and he threw a barrage of punches at him, but he was then subdued for a time when Frigga got him by the arm and White Wolf pinned him to the wall.
Then all of a sudden, a giant demon-like creature appeared and he pulled Richard's mask off and threw him against another wall and he was stunned by the force for a time. As he came to his senses, he saw Jane disappear. It was an illusion.
"Witch!!!," Malekith yelled angrily. "Where is she?"
"I'll never tell you," she answered.
"I believe you."
Then the creature known as Kursed stuck a blade through her and she was killed instantly.
"NOOO!!!!!!," a voice yelled and lightning struck Malekith right in the face and Richard ran at Kursed who simply grabbed his king and they jumped off the nearby balcony, and fled Asgard.
Richard turned to see Thor hugging Jane and Odin cradling his wife.
Later on, Richard was told by Brian that the palace shield had been destroyed by the giant, and that they were defenseless.
Now all of Asgard stood before the river that flowed through the city. Many lives had been lost in the battle, friends, family, loved ones. Frigga now laid in a boat and began to float down the river. Then an arrow flew and hit it and it was set on fire just as it was about to fall down the falls, then Odin stomped the bottom of his spear and she continued to float as the boat fell. Then the people of Asgard released many little lights into the sky as they mourned.
Richard then walked down to the dungeons and walked to Loki's cell.
"What do you want?," he asked.
"I thought you should know," he said. "Queen Frigga was amongst those killed during the attack."
Loki gave no immediate expression of sadness, and gestures him to leave. As he left, he heard Loki destroy his room.
As he walked through the palace, he found something unexpected. He found Sif and Union Jack, kissing.
"Well, that was fast," he said and they turned and went red. Then Sif recovered and stormed over to him. "I won't speak of it to anyone, Sif. I don't want to die."
"Good boy," she said, and she walked out as she was still a little embarrassed.
"Have you ever heard of knocking?," Jack asked.
"Have you ever heard of closing the door?"
"What are you two talking about?," Fandral said behind them.
"Trust me," Richard said. "You don't want to know."
"Well, Thor has a plan to end all this. So follow me."
They followed him to a small and dark room where the others except for Jane were.
"Now that we're all here," Thor said. "We must get Jane out of Asgard. My father is blinded by grief and pain, and is not thinking clearly. When the Dark Elves return, they destroy everything and all will be lost. Now I have a plan to get her out, but I will need all of your help."
"What if Odin tries to stop us himself?," Brian asked.
"I am sworn by honor to report and treachery I see to the king himself," Heimdall said. "I will distract him while you all get the human girl out of here."
"Will you help?," Thor asked and everyone seemed to agree quickly. "Very well, Richard, come with me."
As they walked, Thor began explaining his plan quietly, but the last part shocked Richard.
"You must be joking," he said and he shook his head.
"He has knowledge of many other ways to get in and out of Asgard."
Soon they reached the dungeons and Loki didn't look happy to see them.
"What? Have you two come to gloat again? Or are just going to rub in that I'm in here and you're not?," he asked.
"Drop the magic so that I may speak to you face to face," Thor said and Loki did so. His hair was a mess, as was his cell and looked to have wept a little even.
"See me now, brother."
They came closer and they looked at him with some pity.
"Did she suffer?," he asked but it was ignored.
"I'm not here to speak about mother, but to speak to you about avenging her, but we'll need your help."
"...You must be truly desperate to come to me for aid."
"If you betray us, we will kill you," Richard threatened, and he smirked.
"When do we start?"
I will stop here and pick up when they are escaping Asgard and reach the Dark World. After that chapter will be the rest of Thor 2.
