A tremendous feeling of bliss was overwhelming Xander like his whole life he was under someone's control and only now was he free, he began to understand things like he could see a great pattern the very weave of fate, he could see divergences at specific points at Halloween he could see himself possessed by different characters giving him different abilities, he could see himself getting possessed by different animals from the zoo trip sometimes things were better sometimes much worse. For the first time he understood, he understood the plan that was laid out by the creator, a plan bastardised by the powers that be into their own plan.

He could see them even now changing fate and destiny slightly; people that should have lived were killed, people who should have died aloud to live, moving the weave in small instances than impacted the world heavily. Hitler was supposed to have died in the Great War; Rasputin was to never have met the Czar, the changes were numerous and not all for the good.

He looked to Odin the man was glowing with energy; he could feel the warmth radiating from him. Xander felt more and more power entering him memories from the Egyptian, Greek and Roman gods was being downloaded into his being.

His body was a storm with power as he felt the gods of China and Japan becoming part of him more and more power began to pour into him until he couldn't take it. Like a piece of elastic stretching beyond its capacity something gave and it was Xanders body. First his flesh burned away then his muscle then his nerves and finally his bones.

An eternity past for Xander he was one with all things in all worlds, he saw the beginning and the end of everything he watched empires rise and fall. Lives begin and end; slowly his body began to reform starting with the bones then the nerves the organs the muscle, skin and hair. He looked exactly like he did before the only difference was in his clothes.

He now wore a black t-shirt tucked into a pair of black combat trousers which were tucked into a pair of black combat boots that reached up to his knee, he had dark brown forearm guards with a copper like material armouring them, he also wore a deep brown trench coat that had sleeves rolled up, on his head he had a leather crown that had cheek guards and a nose guard, each were plated in that copper like material, his hair was spiked but still a dark brown almost black, his skin had a healthy tan his arms that were once wiry now had athletic muscle.

He found Odin weighting for him with a knowing look on his face

"That was..." Xander couldn't find the words for what had happened to him then something sparked in his mind "I know how to get out of here" he looked to the wise old god "will you come with me? I know you believe your time has passed but if we get out of here I'm going to need an adviser someone to help me with my powers and how to deal with the knowledge"

Odin looked to the younger god with a grandfatherly smile

"I think that..."
