It had been a few days since anything major had happened, almost a week, during which, Joe, Kara and Wanda spent their time together, occasionally jumping between dimensions.
The look on superman's face was hilarious when he found out about their unorthodox relationship.
However, It wasn't long before they got pulled into another adventure.
Raven and Tim had invited their friends to Asgard and spent quite a bit of time with Loki who was helping Frigga turn Asgard into a more civilized place.
Loki especially wanted to minimise warrior culture to improve diplomatic relations with some of the other realms and in fact this was a great boon to Asgard since it had allowed them to better interact with the Norns and generally raised their political standing.
Even there military forces have been greatly improved.
They had begun incorporating tactics and more weapons than simply their melee swords and axes, and their armour developed expensively.
Joe had given them some of his less powerful directed energy weapons as a sort of peace gift.
Well actually he just set up a branch of black ink to trade with the Asgardians.
it would not take long, only about one Asgardian lifetime to complete Frigga's plans, especially with Black ink helping out.
Joe and his girlfriends had been asked to inform Jane of her boyfriend's downsides, the current situation and in the end have he stop her relationship with Thor.
It took quite a while and an in depth explanation of how the longevity imbalance would effect their relationship, But they managed to stop her from hating Loki and break up with Thor.
However Joe decided to stick around for a while and while at their latest testing ground managed to wander into a Spatial Anomaly. and ended up somewhere. the portal itself had closed up behind him and he was lost for a good while.
however what ever spatial anomaly had put him there had screwed up his death magic so he was limited to this using the jumping through the portals which were warped by his death magic, through space and surprisingly time.
He found himself among a society of aliens seeding the creation of Mutants as well as several asgardian wars, where his skills in weapon use grew and he learned how to use several new weapons as well as improve his ability at boosting his physical prowess with magic.
He meandered through space and time, passing though several eras and learning quite a lot of lost magic, he even managed to increase the level of poison in his blood by being subjected to a not inconsiderable amount of poisons and toxins.
After a very enlightening trip he finally had enough and used the Universal Remote to get back.
Some how managing to get back he placed the remote in the warded box before teleporting to Asgard where he saw his family and his kids' friends fighting off the incoming invaders.
Raven was firing spells at the incoming arial attackers, he was so fast that her spell fire looked like a continuous stream of rainbow light.
Tim was wielding a new weapon. ever since he had returned Caldefwitch to his dad, he had been given a new weapon, a staff that could change size and shape, as well as become any weapon.
he was using it to summon and control several golems as well as transfigure anyone he toughed into stone.
Cyborg and robin were working together, taking down villain after villain, though they were not nearly as effective as the Blacks. Starfire was simply hovering raining down plasma on the incoming hordes.
he jumped into battle and began cutting down the hordes of enemies.
"73!" Kara yelled at him
Pulling out his pair of Kusari Gama, he jumped into the air before cutting down twenty and switching to caledfwlch he unleashed an arc of flame at his opponents cutting down a quick twenty more. when he touched the ground, he ran forward before using the scythe to reap about 30 of them.
"82." he countered playfully.
Kara was quick to retort by freezing a large group of invaders before shattering them like glass.
Joe grabbed his old trident, the one he had picked up the last time he was pin balled around space and time, pulling back his arm he let the let the three pointed spear fly.
The spear impacted on the leader, however, several other in it's path were cut through.
Suddenly Joe saw a man that looked oddly like two-face quickly noting how he was apparently draining life-force from Jane, he teleported, his scythe swung slicing into the enemy, and draining of his power.
Joe was surprised at the lack of energy, crouching over the corpse before straightening up and sending Jane to Friggas side with a flick of his wrist.
He did leave behind the strange glowing rock.
several of the newer Asgardian war-machines had been helping the warrios combat the incoming forces and were easily repelling them.
Deciding to finish the battle, he flung himself into the air, before unsheathing Cadefwitch and letting loose a massive arc of flame, incinerating the incoming re-enforcements.
