A/N: Pat-reon: HelloDarkness07- Chapter 36!
Second Chapter, but a short one!
~~~
"And then, the mortal called himself Gorr, and vowed to kill all the Gods, indiscriminately." I say, explaining to my mother about Gorr.
I'd just returned to our island after I got the vision, and spent the last half an hour telling her every detail I remember, which is a lot.
"Is he actually dangerous, though? You did say he is a mortal." Mother asks, pointing it out unnecessarily.
Dropping my head in my hands, I groan out, "Mother, if he wasn't a danger, I wouldn't have told you about him. He took a piece of the All Black and adapted to it. No one, not even Celestials were able to that. Not even the Golden Gods managed to do it."
Mother nods, accepting the reasoning, and says, "Very well. I will take care of myself. If as you say, he has the All Black, a bigger part of it now, then he is an even bigger danger than the usual God Killers. More than me, you should be careful, Theos. You're still young."
I nod, not feeling insulted. At all. Nope.
Glaring at me, and narrowing her eyes, mother freezes me in my place, and threateningly adds, "I hope I don't have to tell you not to seek him out?"
I sweat at the pressure she's putting on me, and rapidly shake my head. I like living too much to try and find this Gorr. For now, he's going on the back burner. It's not like he's coming here today. He's probably like a million galaxies away from me right now.
With the topic of Gorr on the back of my mind, but still not forgotten, I resumed my travels, only this time, I added training too. The weights Scathach had given me were reactivated, giving me a good workout by just walking.
And my stalking- I mean, research, was giving me a good stealth training anyway. As for weapons, I'm just using them, and playing with them as much as possible.
While fighting with Satannish, my moves were not fast enough to permanently deal with him. Scathach would be disappointed in me, if she had seen my performance. So, I'm practicing my speed as much as possible.
Can't exactly improve the weapon, as I have no Divine material to make Weapons out of. Vibranium, while good for a single use Magic Enhancement, is not good enough for continuous Magical use. It just.. blows up.
So, until I find a Divine Material, like the Adamantine of the Olympians, or Uru of the Aesir, I'm playing with Vibranium itself.
It was while I was training with my Talwar, curved sword used mostly by the Hindu Gods right now, that I heard it. A big boom sounded from somewhere far away.
As soon as I snap my head in that direction, I see a Lightning bolt slam into the ground a few miles away from me, and hear a thunder sound 15 seconds later.
'Approximately 3 miles then.' I think, and start packing my stuff. Within a few seconds, I spell everything back within a pocket Dimension, and becoming invisible, start flying towards the direction the sound came from.
Call me stupid, but I'm curious. The first boom had to have occurred 3 seconds before I even noticed anything, and it was not Lightning slamming into the ground. Which means, something, or someone, fell into the ground, causing the boom, and then the Lightning occurred.
While flying, I see a few more flashes of light, but hear no sound of thunder. That's definitely a fight going on.
Within half a minute, I reach the place the fight is taking place in, and just stare, open mouthed.
"Stop this nonsense, Loki! I don't care if you're my brother, I will kill you if I have to!" a big burly blonde man, that looks nothing like Chris Hemsworth, shouts, throwing a big war hammer towards his enemy.
The enemy in question, a black haired tall man, wearing a lot of green, simply lets the hammer pass, and says, "Adopted. Or have you forgotten that part, Odinson?"
Thor, and I now know he's Thor, catches the approaching hammer, and runs towards Loki to engage in physical combat. All the while, I just watch in curiosity.
I don't know much about the Aesir. I don't know if Loki is actually a bad guy, or just hates Odin because of his children's treatment. So, yeah, I'm letting them duke it out.
Loki blocks the kick thrown with his own knee, and pulls out a dagger to fight Thor with. As they punch, kick, and use their respective weapons, I can tell that Physically, Thor is superior to Loki, and way superior to me.
Like, this Thor is definitely at Class 100 or above, while Loki is above Class 85, for sure. Still, Loki is holding his own pretty well. He's faster than Thor, which makes up for his lesser strength.
Suddenly, I see Loki stumble a bit, which Thor capitalizes on, and hits Mjolnir towards Loki's face. Loki widens his eyes at the approaching hammer, and even I stare in shock as the weapon of a Worthy Thor moves towards Loki's face.
Just as it is about to hit Loki's face though, it passes right through him, and Loki's illusion disappears.
'Damn, he even got me!' I think to myself, keeping my senses open this time.
So silently, that I can't even hear him, I see Loki, thanks to my connection to the planet, walk behind Thor and stab him on the right side of his stomach.
Thor grunts in pain, and swings his hammer behind him. Loki walks away from there, letting another illusion fool Thor. Thor's swing, hitting only air, makes him lose his balance and he drops down on his knees.
He puts his hand on the dagger still in the side of his stomach, and slowly pulls it out. A third Illusion of Loki appears, and tauntingly says, "What happened, Odinson? Can't fight?"
"You're a coward, Loki! Fighting with illusions, and stabbing in the back! Fight like a man, if you dare!" Thor grits out, holding his wound with his left hand, and Mjolnir in his right.
Illusion-Loki simply chuckles, turns into a woman version of himself, now herself, and says, "Oh, but Thor, I don't want to fight like a man."
Thor snarls at Loki, and stands up, his wound now a bit healed. Glaring at Thor, and hefting his hammer, he asks, "What is your purpose for doing this, Loki? Why? What will you get in this plot of killing our Father?"
While the illusion stays the same, I see a change occur in the real Loki, as he clenches his fists, and reigns his anger in. The illusion, meanwhile, just smiles and widens his eyes, and says, "How about joy? Isn't that enough? And I think you're missing the point where he's not actually my father."
Closing his eyes for a second, Thor whispers, "So be it." And Points his hammer above into the sky.
Almost immediately, I feel a thunder storm gather above us, and a giant Lightning bolt slams down from above, and goes into the hammer.
Getting into a fighting stance, as the thunder storm rumbles above, Thor yells, "You want to kill Father, I understand. He punished your children for a crime they did not commit yet. But you want to kill every Asgardian by causing Ragnarok! I cannot allow you to do that!"
"Try and stop me, Odinson!" Loki yells, as he starts walking away from Thor, leaving the illusion in front of Thor.
What to do? What to do? Should I stop Loki from leaving, and allow him to get revenge for what happened to his children? Or should I stop him and stop Ragnarok from happening? Decisions, decisions.
Thor jumps from his place, and flies towards the illusion of Loki. As soon as he reaches there, he slams the lightning charged hammer into Loki, or what he thinks is Loki, and discharges all of it. Unfortunately for him, it only hits the ground, and destroys everything about 100 meters around Thor.
Sighing, I make up my mind, and snap my hand towards the now chuckling, but still invisible Loki. Loki feels something coming though, and jumps up into the air, just as trees bind an illusion of his.
Damn, his senses are good. Loki snaps his head towards my invisible form, as soon as he lands, and looks curiously. Knowing my invisibility is redundant, I become invisible, and look at Loki in return.
"Who are you, child? Who are you that dared to try and stop me!" Loki asks, his hands glowing an ominous green.
As Thor, hearing our exchange flies towards us, I chuckle, and say, "I'm Theos, huge fan of yours, by the way. But, I can't let you cause a Genocide against an entire Race of Gods."
"LOKI!!" Thor yells, jumping at Loki, and passing through his illusion again. He drops down on the ground, and gets stabbed again, this time on the left side, from a dagger thrown by Loki.
"Will you never learn, Odinson?" another Loki says, as he and 13 other illusions appear all around Thor. I was still floating in the air, and look towards where the real Loki is, also looking at me. Keeping his eyes on me, the real Loki starts walking towards Thor, and stops a foot away from him, his green hands pointed at Thor's head.
Instead of him, the illusion closest to me speaks up, "Leave now, child, and I will allow you. You know nothing of me, and this is no business of yours."
Looking at the glowing hands of Loki, I ask, "How could it not be a business of mine, if you're trying to kill my own half brother."
"What?!" Thor and Loki both yell, looking at me.
Seeing them both distracted, I immediately summon the wood and bind Loki up. As my trees start sucking the Magic out of him, I land in front of the gaping Thor.
Ignoring the struggling Loki, as all his illusions disappear, I look to the kneeling Thor, and say, "Allow me to reintroduce myself. My name is Theos, the son of Gaea. Or as you might say, Theos Jordson. It's nice to meet you.. brother."

A/N: Sorry for not uploading yesterday. I was really, really depressed. Couldn't even write one paragraph.
I just want to say this now, to warn you not to get your hopes too up. I write for fun, and to keep myself busy. It's a sort of coping mechanism for me.
So, there might come a time in the future when I just might stop writing, although not without informing you, or I might quit just this story. I know, you will hate me for it. But, I just don't want you to get too disappointed.
On a positive note, if I do stop writing, you guys will get at least 10 chapters more, after the notice of me quitting! Hurray!
But, I'm not stopping writing yet. It's too far away. I have about 10-20 chapters more planned, and more plot might just come to me. Good luck to me!
So, until next time, Tata!
