As Thor landed on the ground the warrior three and Sif immediately ran to him, surrounded him and grinned.
"THOR!" they all cheered. "My Prince!"
Though as Thor didn't smile back at them, but stayed stern did they all halt. They all looked confused as he didn't seem to move.
"The deed is done is it not?" Sif asked. "It is time to return to Asgard! To go home."
"Aye. It is indeed time." Thor replied. "For the four of you to go home."
All of them halted stunned.
"But… You're coming with us right?" Sif asked. "We've been waiting for you! The all father and all mother are missing their son. You're the Prince of Asgard! Everyone are waiting."
Wide-eyed they all looked up at Thor.
"They can wait some more." Thor replied, then he turned his head and saw a woman wide-eyed looking at them, hiding behind one of the buildings. "Hello Jane." he spoke quietly.
The womans eyes widened. "You… You know my name." she gasped. "Do I know you?"
Thor swallowed as he stood. Then Jane stepped forward, shaking slightly until she was standing in front of Thor. She looked so tiny in front of him. Fragile.
Then Thor exhaled and as he did, it was like his appearance just melted away. He became shorter, skinnier. His armour turned to normal clothes and the hammer in his hand turned into a cane.
Jane gasped shocked.
"I… I remember now. Where I came from. Who I am." Donald swallowed. "Or at least who I used to be."
"You… You're." Jane tried to wrap her head around it.
"I came from up there." Donald pointed upwards. "Another world, a world so very unlike this one."
Jane swallowed, her eyes going misty. "So.. I suppose you have to go home now huh?" she asked.
"Actually." Donald commented. "I had hoped to go to South Carolina. I heard the beaches are amazing this time of year."
And Jane gasped.
"That is… If it's all right by you." Donald then said. "Listen I… It's not all I remember. And I have a lot to sort through. As it turns out, I'm not actually human. I am not who I were, yet neither am I what I thought I was. So… I don't really know who I am. And I know I still have much to learn… I want to be a good person. And I think if you helped me with that. It'll be all right. So erhm. South Carolina?" he asked.
Jane smiled then reached forward a hand and took Donalds, grabbing it firmly. "South Carolina." she agreed. And they both turned around, plainly turning their backs to the gaping warrior three and Sif. And they simply walked away.
Of course, this was far from over.
Loki was out there, and he was plotting a new scheme.
Thor had made himself a lot of enemies in the millennia before he became Donald Blake.
He had promised to make up for the destruction that had happened to earth. Tony Stark already was on the look out of this new superhero.
He was a potential candidate to an idea Tony had… Just sort of a side project really. A group of specialist to help protect earth.
Perhaps one day.
A few days prior, far away from the city Donald Blake had lived in. In the middle of the desert of Nevada was a huge testing facility. Testing gammar radiation.
People were running around ready for great day. Their big experiment.
The head scientist, skinny and nerdy looking with large glasses on his nose were running with his nose deep into a big stack of papers. Only for him to run directly into a wall and fall down with papers all around him.
"Owww…" The head scientist groaned holding his head.
"Are you all right?" A woman asked amused as she stepped forward.
"Yeah. I'm fine Betty." The scientist smiled awkwardly and the woman, Betty. Laughed amused.
"Hey get up!" The director of the facility shouted as he got running. "This is a big day, we need to be absolutely professional and serious. Especially you! Doctor Bruce Banner!"
