Chapter 8: The God of Thunder Returns
Hey everyone I'm back. Things are getting exciting. I have a lot planned but I decided to put it into two chapters so I could nail everything. I hope you like what I have planned. Please Review and Enjoy.
It was morning as Jane had come over to examine Neo and Thor after Will called her.
"You know, one of these days I'm going to have to start charging you guys." Jane said.
"We appreciate the help Jane." Thor said causing Jane to smile.
Little did they know on the outskirts of Heatherfield, the Bifrost dropped off Sif, the Warrior's 3, Johan, Astrid, Heather and Rayla who make their way into town.
Back in Asgard, Loki makes his way to Odin's vault and calls upon the Destroyer.
"Ensure my brother does not return. Destroy everything." Loki orders.
At the Silver Dragon, everyone was setting up plates for breakfast still thinking about what Neo and Thor said last night.
"I can't believe it. All those Norse myths are true." Taranee said blown away.
"Well hold on Neo said his dad was a god. I find that a little hard to believe." Cornelia said.
"It would explain why he's so skilled in the art of combat." Caleb said.
"But if that hammer outside is really his why can't he lift it?" Irma asks.
"Still I'm gonna need some proof before I believe any of this." Cornelia said when they heard a pounding on the door and see the Asgardians leaning against the door.
"Found you!" Volstagg said shocking everyone but Neo and Thor who were happy to see everyone.
"My friends! It's so good to see you." Thor said.
"Heather, Astrid, Rayla!" Neo said as the three girls hugged him until Astrid punches him on the shoulder.
"That's for ditching us." Astrid said before hitting him on the head. "And that's for everything else."
"Great to see you too Astrid." Neo groans rubbing his head.
"I don't believe it." Yan Lin said blown away.
"Oh excuse me. Lady Sif and the Warrior's Three as well as Johan, trainer of warriors and his students." Volstagg introduced.
"My friends, I have never been happier to see anyone, but you should not have come." Thor said.
"We're here to take you two home." Fandrall said.
"You know I can't go home. Father is dead because of me and I must remain in exile." Thor explains.
"Thor, your father still lives." Sif said causing both Thor and Neo to realize they had been tricked.
In Asgard, Loki walks up to Heimdall who was guarding the Bifrost.
"Tell me Loki, how did you get the Johtuns into Asgard?" Heimdall asks.
"You think the Bifrost is the only way in and out of this realm? There are secret paths to these realms that even you with all your gifts are blind. But I have need of them no longer now that I am king and I say for your act of treason you are relieved of your duties as Gatekeeper and no longer a citizen of Asgard." Loki declares.
"Then I need no longer obey you." Heimdall said drawing his sword to attack but at the last second Loki reveals the casket which freezes Heimdall just as his sword is inches from Loki.
Back on Earth, everyone saw a cloud of smoke as the Destroyer was heading towards them.
"Jane, girls you need to leave." Thor said.
"And what about you?" Jane asks when Neo ran out in his Asgardian armor and sword.
"Are you two gonna fight with us?" Johan asks.
"My friends I am only a man. I will only get in the way or get one of you killed, but how are we going to keep this hidden from the people?" Thor asks.
"Leave that to me. Girls come with me." Yan Lin said leading the girls inside.
"Grandma shouldn't we go Guardian and help them?" Hay Lin asks.
"No, the identity of you girls must remain secret. We'll leave this fight to Asgardians, but we need to protect the people. Will if you mind." Yan Lin said as Will took out her amulet.
"Guardians Unite!" Will said as they transformed.
"So wait if we're not gonna fight the Destroyer then what are we going to do?" Irma asks.
"You all are going to combine your powers and create an illusion so the civilians can't see what's going on." Yan Lin said surprising them. "Now lock arms and do as I say."
Looking to each other all of them nodded and linked arms.
"Now focus your magic into your hands and send it flowing around each other." Yan Lin said.
Back outside, the Destroyer was making its way towards them when suddenly a bright light emitted from the Silver Dragon causing the civilians to act like everything was normal.
"Wait, what's going on?" Jane asks confused. "Don't they see the big walking suit of armor heading towards us?"
"I guess the girls must've done something to help us so we could concentrate on the fight." Neo said.
"Who exactly are your new friends?" Heather asks curiously.
"We live through this we'll tell you everything." Neo said.
"You four stay back, you are not trained to handle an enemy this powerful." Johan orders.
"What? But we can help." Rayla said.
"Help by making sure nobody dies." Thor said.
"Keep it distracted." Sif said as she ran to the side.
Running ahead Fandrall and Hodge ready themselves as Volstagg draws his axe.
"For Asgard!" He yells as they slingshot him towards the Destroyer, but it merely swats him away sending him crashing into a parked car.
It was about to blast him when Sif jumps down and stabs it through the neck with her spear causing it to power down.
"Whoa." Neo, Heather, Astrid and Rayla said in awe.
"Someday you kids might get to that level." Johan smirks when suddenly the Destroyer reactivated turning its entire body around shocking everyone.
As it was about to blast her Johan drew his greatsword and whacked it causing the beam to miss and allowing Sif to fall off.
"Fall back!" Johan said as they all made a run for it.
Firing multiple beams the Destroyer sends Sif, Johan and the Warrior's three flying across the street.
"Go, now run!" Thor yells as Neo, his friends and Jane made a run for it.
Looking to see Sif hiding behind a car Thor runs to her.
"Sif you've done all you can." Thor said.
"No, I will die a warrior's death. They will tell stories of this day." Sif said.
"Live and tell those stories yourself. Now run." Thor orders as Sif ran back to Johan and the Warrior's Three. "I want all of you to take Neo back to Asgard and stop Loki."
"What? No what about you?" Neo asks.
"Don't worry son. I have a plan." Thor smiles.
As all of them ran for cover they see Thor walking to the Destroyer.
"Wait!" Caleb said stopping them.
"What's he doing?" Jane asks as they look to him.
"Brother whatever I have done to wrong you, whatever I have done to lead you to this I am truly sorry, but these people are innocent. Taking their lives will gain you nothing, so take mine and end this." Thor said.
The Destroyer looks to Thor and at first turns away. Smiling Thor thought he did the right thing but a second later it turns around and whacks Thor sending him flying.
"No!" Neo and Jane yell running to him.
"Hang in there, alright I'll fix you up and you'll be as good as new." Jane said.
"Don't worry, it's fine. You're safe now." Thor said weakly.
"Yeah I'm safe." Jane said.
Suddenly from inside the Silver Dragon the girls heard a rumbling noise breaking their concentration.
"Uh did you guys hear that?" Taranee asks when Blunk opens the back door.
"Girls, funny hammer moving." Blunk said when suddenly Mjolnir launched itself out of the rock and flew towards Thor.
"Look it's muwh muwh." Hay Lin said as it flew into Thor's hand causing a giant lighting strike to appear and with it everyone looked to see Thor regain his armor.
"Oh my god." Jane said in shock while Neo grinned widely.
The Destroyer charged up to fire a blast at them, but Mjolnir flew out and smacked it in the face.
When it flew back into Thor's arms he looked to his son and smiles.
"Mind if I handle this one?" Thor asks.
"Go get'em." Neo said as he led Jane back to the others.
"Neo, is that really your dad?" Jane asks.
"Sure is." Neo smiles.
Spinning his hammer Thor created a giant storm lifting both him and the Destroyer into the air. The Destroyer fires a bright beam at him but Thor flew in deflecting the blast and slamming his hammer into the Destroyer's face causing a giant explosion and causing the Destroyer to shut down as it plummets to the ground.
"He…he took it down with one hit." Will said.
Grinning to see it was over the girls turned back into their civilian clothes and ran out to see Thor walking towards them all.
"So, is that how you normally dress?" Jane asks.
"More or less." Thor said.
"It's a good look for you." Jane admits.
"We must go to the Bifrost sight. I think it's time we had a word with my brother." Thor said.
"Want to see the bridge we talked about?" Neo asks.
"Uh yes." Irma said excited as Thor grabbed Jane and spun his hammer launching them both into the sky.
"Show off." Neo chuckles.
Little did they know back in Asgard, Loki had opened the Bifrost and allowed Laufey and his frost giants inside.
"Welcome to Asgard." Loki grins as Laufey had two frost giants stayed to guard the Bifrost.
At the sight, Thor had called on Heimdall, but he was frozen so he couldn't open it.
"Heimdall if you can hear me we need you now! Heimdall!" Thor's voice echoes causing Heimdall to fight through the ice causing it to crack allowing him to break free.
The two frost giants tried to stop him but they were no match for him as he slayed them with ease before weakly making his way to the Bifrost and activating it.
Back on Earth, all of them looked to see the Bifrost being activated.
Grinning Neo turns to Will, Irma, Taranee, Hay Lin, Cornelia and Caleb.
"Do you really have to go?" Will asks.
"My home needs me, but you have my word I will return to help you with Phobos." Neo said.
"We both will." Thor said walking next to him.
Almost immediately Will threw her arms around Neo hugging him which was soon joined by the rest of the Guardians and Caleb.
"Good luck guys." Will said as they let go.
Thor turns to Jane who walks up to him.
"You may my word I will—" Before Thor could finish Jane kisses him on the lips wishing him good luck.
As the light from the Bifrost shot down one by one the Asgardians entered before it was just Neo and Thor.
"You ready Neo?" Thor asks as Neo drew his sword.
"Let's stop Uncle Loki before he does anything crazy." Neo said.
Nodding both of them ran through the Bifrost and disappeared into the sky.
"Good luck." Will said hoping that Neo wasn't lying when he said he would come back.
