Greek myths are real? Alien or Monster? Chapter 15
Sam walked towards the building when she was nearly there she was greeted by the Avengers, some she could tell were trying hard not to look relieved while others did a better job at it.
"You came back?" Steve asked
"Are you ready to listen?" Sam asked back
"Come on in." Steve said leading the way back to the lounge where they all turned to look at her, they were waiting for her to start talking. "I just have one question for you." Sam stated
"What is that?" Steve asked
"Do you believe me now?" Sam asked looking around the room her gaze landed on Natasha.
"Yes." She replied somewhat surprising Sam she had a whole speech which turns out she will not have to use.
"Tell us what is going on and we will help in any way we can." Steve added
"In the morning." Natasha stated making Sam turn to look at her from Steve. "You look exhausted, we still have your things take a shower and get some sleep you look like you need it. Are you hurt?" Natasha asked
"Physically? Fine just tired."
"Mentally?" Sam Wilson asked
"No shrink in the world could handle what I have to say. I am mentally exhausted, you need not worry about me, but there is people out there that need you to unite. So that is my job…yay me." Sam replied but it was dripping with sarcasm. She was drained from the fight, from everything she had learnt she looked down at the bracelet on her arm then back up at the Avengers.
"Gets some rest, we will talk in the morning." Steve stated and Sam nodded, she had a feeling she would need a shower and a nap, part of her wanted to go straight to be but she would prefer to be clean first.
Sam woke up checking the clock it was just before noon, they had let her sleep which she was surprised at before she got up and mentally preparing herself for what was to come. The many questions she knew they had. She made her way to the lounge surprised that they were all their waiting for her, Natasha came over with some food and a drink which she took gratefully. Happy that they let her eat first once she was finished she looked back up at Mr Stark, Steve and Natasha who were the leaders.
"Something is coming, before you ask I have no idea what it is, I just know that the gods have seen the need for us to unite. Which can only highlight how important this need to unite is if they are reaching out for mortals for help. I don't know why I was given the short straw in this to tell you, but here I am. Over the last couple of years a war was taking place, small battle that grew up to one big fight the titans tried over throwing the gods we managed to stop them. You had your own war fighting the chitarre the six of you managed to hold back an army. You fought Ultron with aide from some new friends you managed to stop a global catastrophe. This trouble a giant purple monster is coming here…it is looking for something and it has something to do with the earth." Sam stated
"What do you mean with the earth? Do you mean here on earth?" Steve asked but he had a feeling it was not that simple.
"I asked you what do you know of Greek myths?…well let's just say I think she is stirring."
"Who is she?"
"That sounded uneventful." Tony stated
"Do you mean…"
"Don't say her name." Sam interrupted them "Names hold power, hers is one name you do not want to get the attention of."
"What makes you think…she is rising?"
"Six stones in a giant earth hand not that hard to decipher."
"What?" Everyone asked
"Demigods dreams are not like normal dreams."
"You saying this is from a dream?" Tony asked she could hear his disbelief in his voice.
"Easiest way for the gods to communicate with their kids…warn them. This warning has been haunting my dreams ever since I came across you. You don't have to trust me, but you need to believe me a war is coming, like no war either of has fought. We need to unite or countless life will be lost. You can write me off but I will be going back and preparing with the others…we will fight to save our world…I don't think you would let a group of teenagers take your job...you were the ones that said this is your job."
"Infinity stones." Wanda stated
"What?" Steve asked turning to her
"Thor said something about infinity stones."
"Thanos is coming." Pietro stated moving over to her sister who gave him a nod.
"What?" Tony asked looking at him to Wanda.
"That is what Ultron said, Thanos is coming. He said he was being merciful compared to what Thanos had in store for this planet. He said it was a mercy killing." Pietro stated
"And you believed him?"
"No, he was crazy wanting to destroy the world, but on this Thanos business he was…telling the truth. He seemed afraid of him." Pietro stated slowly and clearly.
"Who is this Thanos?" Tony asked
"Thanos is a titan lord that has conquered many planets…he thinks he is a prophet and is protecting the universe by wiping half the population out." A voice stated behind them making them turn to see Thor standing with several Asgardian warriors behind him all dressed in armour. "The girl speaks the truth." Thor stated moving into the room looking at Sam who seemed to be tense, "My friends we must once again unite to save this planet from Peril. War is coming." Thor stated and the others seemed to tense before they all started talking preparations.
"Sure now the Asgardian says it you believe him. Where were you five days ago?" Sam mumbled "Right now that your Asgardian friends are here I can go?" Sam asked and looked out the window as Thunder rumbled the others in the room all looked at Thor but he shook his head it was not him. Sam sighed loudly. "They have Asgardians do they really need us?" Sam asked and again thunder rumbled "Fine…I am curious to know their fighting styles." Sam said turning back around to see them all staring at her. "What?"
"Who were you talking to?" Natasha asked
"What you never seen a one way conversation with a god before?" Sam asked laughing slightly she was still somewhat freaking out about that herself but these mortals did not need to know that. She knew that if she went to leave the likely hood of being hit by lightning was rather high. It was interesting to know that the gods were listening in at least Zeus was for him to react like that.
"Wait you're being serious?" Sam Wilson asked
"I want to see how you fight. We should go to the gym." Sam stated
"We have a war to plan for." Tony pointed out.
"Yes and for us to be allies we need to know how you fight." Sam stated
"Allies…but you said you are teenagers."
"Demigods…never underestimate them. If I win I will let you take lead, but if I win you have to listen to what I have to say." Sam stated
"Win against who?" Tony asked
"None of you, I know how you all fight. You Asgardian prince? He is a demigod right?"
"You cannot be serious." Steve stated
"If I fight you or your friends they will hold back, he knows not to." Sam stated looking at Thor he looked rather uncomfortable.
"Me? You wish to challenge me?" He asked
"Unless you think you can't handle it…then by all mean submit." Sam stated and he nodded his head slowly
"Very well? What weapons do you chose?"
"No magical object, you leave your hammer, I will leave my bow. Other than that you chose."
"You are an archer?" he asked
"Don't let that fool you." Sam stated as they made their way to the gym, she had no idea why she challenged Thor but knew not to question herself or doubt it, that could lead to downfall. Thor ended up taking an axe from one of the soldiers with him Sam nodded looking it over, it was the size of her body. Sam looked around the room moving over she grabbed a bow staff.
"You choose that?"
"This way I won't hurt you too badly." Sam smirked "Oh gods I sound like my father." She muttered hopping onto the mats. "Are you ready?" she asked seeming that Thor was talking to the lady warrior he turned around and walked past Tony and Steve.
"Thor." Steve did not feel comfortable on this fight, but Thor gave him a small nod before getting on the mats.
"You sure on this?" he asked
"Are you?" Sam asked as she twirled the bowstaff she had her head tilted to the side as she looked him over, she had to admit he had a very nice physique she ended up clenching the bow staff as Artemis's symbol burned. Thor gave her a small nod and the Lady warrior started the match.
Thor had to admit the girl was fast she attacked first dodging his lose swing of the axe, stepping behind him she kicked his leg as the staff landed between his shoulder blade making him move forward only to stumble to the ground after losing balance. He got back to his feet to find her standing there at the ready stance watching him with a calculating look. Thor seemed to hesitate…she moved again seeing his hesitation he jumped out of the way of her attack but this time she swung out with her bowstaff heading for his head he ducked under it using this momentum to get his own attack in only for him to realise that was what she wanted. She seemed to glide around him, she was very light on her feet and he was getting beaten with a jab every other second she was finding his weak points he noticed. He managed to get distance from her, now taking her serious the real fight began…only for him to realise she was teasing him before. As the fight became more serious the faster their movements were made until there was a cracking sound. She had caught the axe with her bow staff it ended up splitting in half, he had good control so managed to stop before he could hurt her, but he saw her smirk she made an x with the two sticks grabbing a hold of his axe below the blade and yanked it taking the axe out of his hands she twirled on her foot so that she spun around him placing a blow on his back. They were now both unarmed, Thor felt himself warming up to her a small smile pulled at his lips it also seemed that she was enjoying herself.
"I thought you would be faster." Sam stated landing a blow to his side he went to punch her but she was already out of his reach.
"It seems you have that covered." Thor responded just as she made another attack surprising him considering her attacks were fast then retreat but this time she moved into his space jumped onto his leg kicking him in the stomach with one foot he went to defend his stomach leaving his face open for her other foot as she spun and kicked him in the face landing on the ground in a crouch his head whipped to the side and his hand went up to his mouth bringing it back down he saw red. "I'm bleeding?" he stated surprised
"Sorry about that?" She stated standing up looking at him she now seemed to be on edge she held out her hand and her bow formed.
"Sam what are you doing?" Steve asked just as Thor summoned his hammer he was watching her with a weary look. She ran at Thor who held up his hammer ready to defend himself but she dived under his legs surprising him she got back up to her feet an arrow formed in her hand, she didn't even care now that it was silver. She turned around and fired…
