————————————————————-
We were following Thor towards the Golden City of Asgard. While, Jane and Darcy looked around in amazement. The view from the Bifrost, the people, the marketplace.
I was also secretly impressed, since I didn’t have enough time to check everything out, last time I was here.
It’s a shame, it was all going to get destroyed in a few years.
I continued walking beside Thor, Darcy trailing slightly behind us, just looking around.
She was gawking at everything, and while she was starting to get on my nerves. I did find her antics amusing.
Thor insisted on taking Jane to get examined, since he was still worried about her.
We soon reach the medical bay of the palace,and as the Asgardian physicians studied Jane, Thor hovered above her clearly worried.
I stood to the side, with Darcy, while Thor got the healers to check on Jane. They had her lay on a bed, which was a higher form of a medical scanner, and started scanning her.
A holographic image popped up above Jane, showing her body and moving along with her.
I was impressed by their level of technology, and even had Sophie take several scans of everything in the med bay.
I asked for permission first, since It would have been too obvious, if I hadn’t.
Thor merely shrugged and told me to do as I pleased.
“What’s that?” She said, while trying to touch the equipment.
The healer, Eir, slapped her hand away and said ,”Be still.”
“That’s a quantum field generator, isn’t it?” Jane said.
” It’s a Soul Forge.” Eir said.
” Does a Soul Forge transfer molecular energy from one place to another?” Jane asked.
Eir looked impressed. ” Yes.”
Jane looked at Thor and whispersed.” It’s a quantum field generator. ”
” You are certain, she is fine.” Thor asked, in concern.
” She’s healthy, and nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. For a mortal that is. ” The healer said.
Odin takes that moment to enter the room, looks around in disapproval and says” My words are mere noises to you that you ignore them completely?”
” I was worried, she could be ill.” Thor said.
“She is mortal. Illness is their defining trait.” Odin said.
“Fa…” Thor tried to say.
“They do not belong here in Asgard anymore than a goat belongs at a banquet table.” Odin interrupted.
Jane sat up and looked at Thor, and then to Odin. “Did he just…? Who do you think you are?” She yelled.
” I’m Odin. King of Asgard. Protector of the Nine Realms.” He said.
” Oh. Well, I’m…” Jane said.
“I know very well who you are, Jane Foster.” He said, as he was turning around to leave.
” I find it strange, Colossus and Wolverine didn’t get the same treatment.” I said, before he was out the door.
He turned to me and said. ” We needed warriors, the seven realms were drowned in chaos, so we simply made an agreement. ”
I nodded. ” Nonetheless, I thank you for your hospitality. ”
” Sif, vouched for them when she found out they were your friends. I don’t need your gratitude sorcerer, take the mortals with you and return to midgard. ” He said.
‘ Hmm… interesting, so he doesn’t consider me a mortal.’ I thought to myself.
” Then I shall do so, but you should probably know that the dark elves are coming. ” I said.
He stopped dead in his tracks, and without turning around he said.” That’s impossible.”
In response I took out the Aether, and held it out for all to see.
“That thing tried to get within her, father, something I have not seen before.” Thor said.
Odin inspected the energy force coming from the container, and quickly realized it was the real thing.
Odin looked at all of us and said, “Come with me. The mortals stay.”
Jane and Darcy were clearly displeased with his attitude towards them, but they ended up staying back, while Thor and I followed Odin.
“There are relics that predate the Universe itself. What lies within your hands appears to be one of them. The Nine Realms are not eternal. They had a dawn as they will have a dusk.” Odin shows us an ancient book, and continued, “But before that dawn the dark forces, the Dark Elves, reigned absolute and unchallenged.”
Thor opened the book and read an excerpt from it, ” ‘Born of eternal night, the Dark Elves come to steal away your light.’ They were the stories mother used to tell us about.”
Odin nodded and said, “Their leader, Malekith made a weapon out of that darkness, it was called the Aether. While the other relics often appeared as stones, the Aether is fluid and ever changing. It changes matter into dark matter and seeks out to host bodies, drawing strength from their life force. Malekith sought to use the Aether’s power to return the universe to one of darkness. But after eternities of blood shed, my father Bor, finally triumphed, ushering in the peace that lasted thousands of years.”
Thor though on that bit of news for a bit. Then asked, “What happened to them?”
“He killed them all.” Odin said.
“Are you certain, Father? The Aether was said to have been destroyed, yet here it is.” Thor said.
“The Dark elves are all dead.” Odin insisted.
“Then does it say, how to destroy the Aether?” Thor asked.
Odin snapped the book shut. ” It can’t be destroyed.”
He then leaves, and we both watch him going away. After standing in the library, for a minute, we go back to the healing chambers, where Jane and Darcy sat.
“Guys! You’re back!” Darcy yelled.
” What happened, what did he tell you?” Jane asked.
” He just gave us a little history lesson.” I said dismissevly.
Thor gave her a reassuring look and said” I’ll explain on the way. Come, there’s someone I’d like you to meet.”
We started walking outside of the chamber, with Thor and Jane leading, me and Darcy following behind, giving them some privacy.
“So.. How’d you like Asgard so far?” Darcy suddenly asked .
I raised an eyebrow, at her attempt to make small talk and said, “Too much Gold.”
“Yeah.. they really do like their Gold. Golden armour, golden walls, buildings. Golden toilets.” She said.
“Huh?” I said.
” What! You guys were gone for a while, I had to use the bathroom.” She said.
Noticing Thor and Jane had stopped, we looked forward and saw Thor and Jane talking to a woman. Who if I were to guess, was the queen of Asgard.
The Queen looks at us, which makes Thor and Jane look at us too. She smiles at us, as Thor begins introducing us.
“Mother. This is my friend Enigma. He fought alongside me, both against the Destroyer and against Loki’s army on Midgard. He’s a strong warrior. And this is Darcy. She’s Jane’s friend.”
I bow politely to the Queen, Darcy follows, but then looks at Friga and blurts, ” Are you really Thor’s mom?”
Friga gives a small chuckle and says.” Is it that hard to believe?”
Darcy flustered” No! It’s just Odin looks so old, while you look.. I..I mean. ”
Friga chuckles again and says” It’s alright, but just between you and me, I think he looks old too. ”
As we all chuckle at Darcy’s expense, the alarms suddenly go off.
“The prisons.” Frigga whispers..
Frigga looks at Thor and says, “Go, I’ll look after her.”
Thor hesitates a little, so I say, “I’ll protect them. Don’t worry.” Saying that my form considerbly bulks up, as I grow a couple of feet taller.
My symbiote gave me the ability to augement my bio-mass, which was useful when fighting physically stronger opponents.
Thor nods and uses his hammer to fly off towards the Prisons, while Frigga leads us towards her rooms.
She looks at me, studying me, for a minute and then says, ” I didn’t notice it before, but your life force is enormous even when compared to an Asgardian .”
I nod and say, ” I may have had a few upgrades .”
Frigga raised here eyebrows, and says, ” It seems Midgard has more surprises than I previously thought.”
Odin comes our way, giving orders to the guards behind him. He looks at me, Jane and Darcy, in disapproval.
He pauses at me for a bit but then turns to Frigga.
“Odin.” Frigga greets him.
“Frigga,” Odin returns. He says, “It’s a skirmish, nothing to fear.” He glances at us, and turns to the guards and shouts, “Go!”
Frigga smiles softly at her husband and says, “You’ve never been a good liar.”
Sif takes that moment to walk past us and I wave at her. In my combat form, she recognises me and smiles a little.
Odin looks at us, turns to Frigga and says, “Take them to your chambers, I’ll come for you when it’s safe.” He then turns to me and says, “Thor trusts you with his life. Prove to me that he isn’t wrong.”
I nod resolutely at him.
“You take care.” Frigga tells Odin, softly caressing his cheek.
Odin smiles at her and muses, “Despite all I have survived, my Queen still worries over me.”
Frigga shakes her head and says, “It is because I have worried that you’ve survived.”
Odin smiles and starts walking towards where the noise was coming from.
Frigga smiles at his back and takes a sword from one of the guards. She has an alarmed look on her face, with a tear flowing from her eye.
She looks at us and orders, “Listen to me now, I need you to do everything I ask, no questions. Enigma take Jane and Darcy through that door. Stay hidden until Heimdall or Odin comes for you. I’ll keep an illusion of the Aether with me to throw them off.”
Jane and Darcy nod immediately, but understanding what she’s planning I shake my head and say, “No. Thor and Odin both trust me to guard all of you. The girls must go through the door while I’ll stay here with you.”
Frigga tries to argue, but seeing my determined face, she nods.
We send Jane and Darcy to the next room,
I then go back to Frigga’s room and ask, “Is he really that strong? The one you saw?”
“Yes. How did you know?” Frigga asks, smiling and crying a little.
I shrug and say, “You’re not the only one who has seen the future.”
Frigga nods and doesn’t say anything. I think for a bit.
If he’s even stronger than Thor, It will be a bit tricky to protect Friga, jane, and Darcy, while fighting off multiple fighters on the level of Thor or higher.
“It’s time.” I whisper, as soon as I sensed the enemies’ approach.
