Chương 43: Axes

A/N: Pat-reon: HelloDarkness07.

~~~

Three days later, mother calls me back to her island, by creating a portal right in front of me. Excited to see my weapons, I immediately summon everything that I had removed from my Pocket Dimension, and store it back in.

It wasn't much, as I was not doing anything important. But there was a tent, which also included my bed, a chair, and a few other necessities.

Jogging through the portal, I look around, and excitedly ask, "Where are they? Where are they?"

Chuckling, mother says, "Not here. Let's go to Donna first."

Nodding, I keep my excitement in check, and create a portal to Donna. Walking through, I look at mother expectantly. I guessed that what mother wants to show me, is bound to be destructive to some degree, so I brought us to a desert. No living beings here for hundreds of miles. Save us, of course.

Chuckling, mother says, "260 years old, and still a child."

"Mother!" I whine, and say, "Gimme my axes!"

"Fine, fine!" Mother says, and summons the axes out of wherever she kept them.

They don't look any different than before, but what do I know? They feel the same too, but they feel more.. magical. It can't be explained more than that.

Taking the axes from her, I spin them around for a while, seeing if the Enchantments changed anything when it comes to balance. Hey! It happens, okay? Magic has weight, sometimes.

Mother says, "For starters, try and throw the axes away from yourself."

Nodding at her, I lean back, and throw the axe in my right hand with my full force. Once that axe leaves my hand, I do the same with my left hand. I see them flying through the air with nary a sound.

They land after a few miles, but still visible to me, because the planet is just that big, and blow dust away from their landing site.

Mother then says, "Now, point both your palms to them, and think about how they feel. Don't summon them with a spell, just focus on calling them to you. Again, don't cast a spell."

I nod, understanding this enchantment, and obey her. Pointing my right palm to the general direction of the dust cloud, I focus on the axe, and clench my hand muscles a bit.

Immediately, I see the Axe speeding towards me, spinning around it's centre of mass, like I'd thrown it, and I mumble, "Oh, fuck!" and close my eyes.

Thankfully, the Axe stops spinning as soon as it reaches me, or it spins just right to land handle first in my hand, and I feel the handle hitting my palm. Closing my hands around the handle reflexively, I open my eyes, and confirm that I still have all 5 fingers.

Releasing a breath, I mumble, "I'm going to have to get used to that."

"Don't be an idiot. No matter how the axe starts, it'll always land handle first in your hands." Mother says, chastising me. I can tell that she's feeling insulted that I would be afraid of a spinning axe speeding towards me. Can you believe that?

Anyway, I point my other palm towards the other crater, and again will the second axe to come, and it does, once again landing right in my hands, handle first, and it's blades pointing up.

Sighing, as I was still nervous about it, mother says, "You can practice it later. For now, let me explain." I nod at her, keeping the axes pointing downwards. She says, "As you can see, the axes will always find you. Doesn't matter where you are. No matter how far, what is in between, and which Realm you're in. The only way someone can stop the axes from coming to you, is if they overpower my Enchantment, which.. is not an easy task, or if there's a physical barrier strong enough to block the axes, which also isn't an easy task."

I nod at her, and ask, "Did you take inspiration from Thor's hammer?"

"A little bit." Mother says, bowing her head in acceptance. "The first Mjolnir, from almost 1 Billion years ago, was the one that inspired this. That hammer was smaller than this current Mjolnir, but denser. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING could stop it in it's track. Not even Celestials."

Shaking her head, leaving me once again wondering about the fate of the previous Asgardian Weapons, mother continues, "Now, the next Enchantment I did, was bind it to our bloodline. Only you, me, and your Descendants will be able to even lift the Axe. Again, inspired by Mjolnir."

"Huh." I mumble, and then ask, "So, theoretically, any of my Mortal descendants, if I do have Demigod children, can use my Axes?"

I'm possessive, okay. I don't like the fact that any of my descendants can travel to the past, and just steal the axes into the future.

Can I time travel? Probably. Have I tried it? Nope.

And even if I do somehow master traveling through time, I won't know when to go to. So, yeah. I'm a bit miffed.

"Don't be like that, Theos. I said they will be able to lift the axe. They could probably use it as an Axe, to cut things. But, they won't be able to access the Divine gifts the Axes have. Plus, you can still call them to you even from the future." Mother says, chastising me.

"Okay, sorry, I'm an idiot. Continue." I say, and motion her to proceed.

Rolling her eyes, mother says, "Without your express permission, no one can lift the axes, nor use them as weapons. And even with your permission, the axes won't work against you. So, if some descendant of yours gets the idea to usurp you, he won't be able to cut you with the axes."

"Now, Divine Gifts. The Axes, when bound to you, were made an instrument of nature. They can help you Manipulate the Nature, but you don't actually need the axes to do that. There's a caveat though."

"What?" I ask, looking at the axes, trying to find any fault.

Mother says, "The Axes have a specific elemental alignment. One of these axes, I've noticed, is better aligned to Lightning, Fire, and Earth elements, while the other is better aligned to Water and Wind."

Fire. A grimace immediately crosses my face remembering my tries at manipulating fire like I do Lightning. It was.. destructive, to say the least. I'm just not suited for fire. Mother is, but I'm not.

"Next," Mother says, bringing me out of my painful memories. "I enchanted it to change it's size according to your own size, but since I couldn't change the axes myself, without your permission, I have not tested it yet."

"Anything else?" I ask, wanting to test the axes immediately, but holding myself back until mother leaves me alone for training.

Snorting amusedly, mother says, "Last one now. You can will the handle of the axes to grow, turning the Axes, into Poleaxes."

"Awesome!" I mumble, looking bright eyed at my axes.

Mother shakes her head, and creates a portal back to her island on Earth. She says, "Well, I'll leave you here to get a handle on your weapons. You might find something else in those axes, I think. But, I'll leave you to discover that. Don't forget to visit in between, Theos!"

And with that, mother disappears through the portal, leaving me alone with my axes. "My precious!" I whisper, caressing the flat blade of one axe.

~~~

Three years, that's how long I trained with my new axes. I didn't just train alone, obviously, and went back to Earth to spar with mother a few times, with her using her own Divine swords.

I have to say, I'm happy with my axes. They feed magic off of me, but since I have no shortage of Magic, I can handle it easily enough.

As mother explained, my axes are pretty similar to Thor's hammer, Mjolnir. Except, I have a blade, and he has a blunt hammer. Mine is a killer's weapon, and his is the one that gives blunt force trauma.

But, I know that Mjolnir is not to be underestimated. Ever.

Anyway, back to my Axes. I haven't found what they're called yet, but I'm remaining hopeful.

As for their abilities, my Axes can be thrown, and I can manipulate their flight paths, so that they don't just fly in a straight curve. And they always return to my hands, whenever I want them to, destroying everything in between.

Of course, stronger enemies might be able to delay it, or hit it away, like that Kursed did in Thor 2.

Next, my axes are sharp, and they're damn sharp. Except for Adamantine, and the Celestial Armour, both of the toughest materials I have access to don't get harmed by my axes, but other than that, everything gets cut.

Probably not other Divine Materials, or enchanted stuff, but the rest at least.

The rest was as mother said. Elemental Manipulation, size change, and the fact that no one else can lift the axes. I tried it on mortals, obviously. Thankfully, there was no negative side effects for trying to lift them, so there's that.

One thing I noticed, which mother didn't mention, was that the axes can shield too. The flat sides of the axes can block Magical spells, physical objects, and even punches. And the spells don't just pass through the gaps, as you might expect. They get completely blocked.

Alas, they don't completely block Cosmic Energy, as the metal is not attuned to it yet. In the future, they will most definitely be able to block Cosmic Energy, but that's too far away for now.

What's more impressive, that when I cross the Axes in front of my chest, it creates a shield all around me, which is capable enough to stop a few of the dangerous spells of mother, as well as a pure natural lightning bolt coming down from the sky. The limits, and there are bound to be, I haven't found yet.

Right now, I was back on Earth, in my ship's cave. I would have loved to keep this Ship here, hidden on Earth, but I couldn't risk it. And Mother agreed, so I was moving it to Donna.

There were many ways someone can find this ship if it stayed here, the most dangerous being by using the other ship. Yup, there's another Celestial ship on Earth, left by Eson the Searcher, for his Champion.

There wasn't anyone yet, but there will be, soon.

Or… not.

I knew where the ship was, I knew how I can move it. And I don't want Apocalypse to try and either worship me, or Usurp me in the future. What's stopping me then?

Huh. Nothing. Am I that impulsive though?

Well.. fuck it.

Creating a portal, I wave my hand and move the portal around the ship, sending mum's ship through. Teleporting back to mother's house, I yell, "Mother! I'm going out! I have to take care of another Celestial ship!"

"Okay.. What?!" Mother yells, but I teleport out of there, not answering her. She would definitely not allow me to do that.

Celestials might be all gone, but that doesn't mean that the fear of the race isn't still there.

Already knowing exactly where the ship is, thanks to my Echolocation, I teleport there.

Appearing in Egypt, but far below the surface, I casually walk towards the ship, and once again, create a portal, sending the ship through it, to Donna. Right beside my Mother's ship.

Walking through the same portal, I close it, and then place my palm on Eson's ship. Letting my Cosmic Energy loose, after so many years of holding it tightly, I hide my Earth God part, and command, "Project Apocalypse! Access Code X Æ A 12." I don't know why, but the password sounds really familiar.

"Access Code accepted. Welcome unknown Celestial. Please give a designation upon entry." I hear the voice of the on board AI, distinctly male, as the giant door opens.

My mother's ship does not have an AI, as she wasn't planning on manipulating a champion into existence, but since Eson wanted Apocalypse to learn as much as He allowed it, he had kept an AI, which wasn't Sentient.

It was just an AI. Nothing more.

In my visions, I'd seen Eson keep this ship on Earth, and had seen him set the password. Obviously, the AI was only smart enough to teach a mortal until he becomes a certified genius in every subject, or at least that's what was supposed to happen with En Sabah Nur before I derailed it.

Walking inside, I follow my senses towards the control room of this ship, and connect to it. One thing that I love about being a Celestial, is the fact that I can connect to, and use, any technology. Doesn't matter what it is, if it's tech, I can connect.

Once connected, I speak to the AI, "Assign Designation: Theos, no title. And then, scan for Celestial ships."

"Designation: Theos confirmed. Scanning.. One ship found.. Designation: Madonna." The AI replies. "Permission to synchronise data?"

"Denied." I immediately answer. Eson probably still has access to this ship, and I don't want him to have any knowledge that my mother collected. Instead, I order, "Transfer all collected Data to the ship of Madonna."

"Transfer complete." The AI answers, barely a minute later.

"Are you sure?" I ask, hesitating a bit. Either the data is very low, or the speed is very high, but still, better be safe.

"Positive. Data transfer of 70 Million units per year, for the last 3,279,021 years is complete." The AI answers, so I just raise my eyebrow. That's a lot of years to be transferred within a minute.

Sighing, I accept it, and close my eyes. I say, "Show me your Source code, Ship."

Time to make this ship mine, and not Eson's. This is the ship of a Searcher, and contains knowledge ranging from Kindergarten to PhD, well, or whatever degree that makes PhD look like a Middle School education.

It turned En Sabah Nur, a normal, but immortal man from the year 3000 BC, into a genius in genetics, way before genetics was even a term on Earth.

But.. this ship was under the control of Eson the Searcher. And now, it will be mine.

~~~

A/N: Please inform me if I start becoming boring in my writing, I have a tendency to do that.

The Units is just a replacement for Gigabytes. I don't think Celestials use our measurements, but meh. Fanfic logic.

Anyway. Tata!
