Chapter 12 - Genesis, chapter 12

"I'm sorry, what!?" Did he just say Thor's hammer? I don't know much about Norse mythology, but I've seen Thors hammer, before. There's no way he's talking about the same thing.

Before I could could get an answer, all of our attention was directed towards the forest. Trees fell to the ground, as lightning crashed, in sync with the strike of someone marching through, treating the tall thick, forestry, like toothpicks.

"Fuck. Here he comes." David muttered as he stood up, and began to March forward, before yelling out. "Get ready, MK's! He brought his fighting force! I don't know what the fuck he wants, but I don't fucking care, either! He isn't leaving this place alive!" They all cheered at David's quick speech, and readied themselves for combat.

But then, silence ensued. The forest was calm. Bjorn, or Thor, whatever his name is, stopped pushing forward. Everyone on this side was waiting anxiously for what would happen next.

"FIRE!" A deep voice bellowed out from within the forest, followed by a barrage of bullets, hitting the barriers, set up in front of the gate.

The MK's began returning fire, which was easier said than done. They were blending in well, making it hard to figure out where to shoot at. David ducked down behind a barrier, pulling me with him. "Not bad, Bjorn. Not good enough, though. You think you can just waltz into my house and fuck with my people? I'm gonna shove that Hammer up your ass, Bjorn!" David jumped up and ran back through the gate.

I was confused and when I was about to follow after him, Toro came and took cover next to me. With his back up against the wall, and rifle in hand, he said "Hey! Pretty exciting, huh?"

"Yeah, I guess so. Where did david just go?" Toro peaked over his cover and shot back before dipping down and replying "Don't worry, he'll be right back. In the meantime, let's focus on trying to hit these bastards."

Toro was right. I needed to return fire, too. I peaked over and a bullet went right past me, whizzing by my ear. The air was filled with the sounds of gunfire, and I couldn't even think straight. To the best of my ability, I shot back, trying to find the flash of the barrels, and pinpoint their location. I picked a few off, but it still seemed never-ending.

All of a sudden, from behind us, five thunderous shots rang off. I turned around to see David standing on top of the gate, with his sniper in hand. From there he yelled out "Enough, Bjorn! What do you want!? Come out and fight me! We can handle this, right now!"

Fire was still being exchanged from both sides for a moment before someone yelled out from the other side "Cease fire!" Everyone on both sides halted their fire, and awaited the next action. David stared intently at the forest, just waiting to see what would happen next

"Fine! Let's do this!" A voice rang out from the forest, and out came a shirtless man covered in Nordic tattoos, showing off the lean, yet muscular build he had. He had light blue eyes, that shined, even from so far away. With dirty blonde hair, braided down his back. In his hands he held his hammer, Mjollnir. The imposing figure was surely the person David spoke of this entire time. Bjorn Or Thor, whatever you wanna call him. "He finally shows his pretty face. Thanks for joining the party, Bjorn."

"My name is Thor, and I'm not here for your mediocre jokes!"

"Ow. That one hurt. I'll have you know that my wife thinks I'm the funniest guy this side of the Mississippi."

"ENOUGH! Give me the bag, and then I'll kill you, and be on my way."

"Wait a minute, shouldn't you be saying 'or kill you?' That's usually how it goes"

Bjorn let out an laugh, bellowing from the pits of his stomach before saying "No. You die here, today. Get ready."

David scoffed at his statement before replying "Alright. If this is what you wanna do, then let's do it. But just a heads-up, I'm not alone."

All of a sudden five people emerged next to David, all of them with a certain Aura about them, like they somehow stood above the rest. As I looked at them all, I noticed that I recognized one of them. It was Lilith! What's she doing up there?

"Meet my Elites. We're gonna tear you down, and put you on your knees, Bjorn."

"MY NAME IS THOR!"

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Elites, let's go!" David yelled out before they all jumped down in unison, rushing towards Bjorn. They ran by us all and I tried to get a good look at them, but it was hard at the moment. I could see their weapons, though.

There was a tall slim guy, with two revolvers in hand. I couldn't see Lilith carrying anything, but then I noticed a gleam on her fist. She's got brass knuckles on. Another guy had a lever action rifle, in his hands. On another's back I could see a sword shining bright as he pulled it from the sheath. The last guy had a chain wrapped around his arm with plenty of slack, and what appeared to be a giant ball attached to the end. These guys aren't normal.

Before I could even really digest that, they started fighting. David started it off, punching Bjorn right in his face. Before he could react, Lilith punched him twice in his liver, the guy with the Mace and chain swung it at Bjorn, wrapping it around his neck, and pulling him to the ground. Then the guy with the sword jumped down on Bjorn, piercing him right through his back. The one with the rifle aimed at Bjorn while he was on the ground, but waited to fire. David called out to Bjorn

"This is rather disappointing, you know. Big man, big talk, but little action. I thought you were better than this.... Bjorn." He said his name with a sly grin on his face, and Bjorn screamed out in rage

"David, you know just as I do, that these feeble creatures can no longer reach the like of you and I. Don't waste my time!" Bjorn raised his hand, still clutching his hammer, and smacked the ground, creating a sound reminiscent of a bell being hit, as he screamed "Ragnarok!"

Everyone jumped back just in time before a bolt of lightning came down, striking Bjorn. A cloud of smoke covered him, as sparks of electricity jumped from the cloud. It cleared to reveal Bjorn, even bigger than before, with blue streaks of electricity running all throughout his body, and covered in armor that looked like something an ancient Nordic God would wear. Everyone reeled back either in amazement or terror.

David spoke up, saying "Yeah. Now that's more like it... Bjo-" before he could finish his sentence, Bjorn dashed toward him, blindingly fast, and gripped his mouth, lifting him off the ground. Bjorn spoke out, his voice echoing within itself "My name. Is Thor." And then with no hesitation, he smacked David into the air with his hammer, and jumped up, intercepting him, and smacking him back down to the ground, creating a small crater where he landed. The Elites all surrounded David, as he sat up and wiped himself off

"Alright. This just got interesting. Whatever you do, don't get hit by that Hammer. You will die." Bjorn slowly and gracefully hovered back to the ground, staring at David the whole time before saying "Give me the bag and make it easy on yourself."

David spit blood from his mouth on the ground and stood up, replying to him "I don't know why you want my bag, it's not even designer, but you're not getting it. Now let's go." He said with a sly grin

Bjorn laughed and said "Fine. Have it your way." Before spinning his hammer and launching it at David, sending him flying back into the side of Ricket City, hitting the metal walls.

The rest of the Elites tried again to apprehend Bjorn, but their struggle went much different than last time. When the guy with the Mace tried to wrap it around Bjorn again, he caught it with his hand, and flung him away. The one with the revolvers and the one with the rifle came at Bjorn from both sides, firing all they could, but the bullets just bounced right off. The one with the sword went after him from the front, jumping in the air and swinging his sword down. Bjorn smacked his sword away with Mjollnir, and grabbed him by the leg, spinning him in a circle, knocking into the other two, tossing them away. Last was Lilith. While Bjorn had his back turned she jumped up and kicked him in his head before landing and delivering five swift hits right to his midsection.

Bjorn slowly turned around and looked down at her "Ahh. I almost felt that." He said, before grabbing her by her hair, pulling her up to his face and just staring at her with a wicked smiled on his face.

Lilith struggled, wriggling around and grabbing at his hand. Before I even realised what I was doing, I was running towards them, firing at Bjorn, one bullet at a time, making sure not to hit Lilith. He put her to the side, and stared right at me. His eyes were filled with Lifeless, bloodthirsty look. It sent chills down my spine.

He dropped Lilith and raised his hand, calling Mjollnir to him, and cocking his arm back. Before I could even think to dodge it, he had thrown it at me. I closed my eyes and fell to my knees at the thought of death.

But nothing. I didn't feel my skull being crushed,or face caving in. I looked up to see David in front of me, palming Bjorn Hammer.

"I thought I told you guys don't get hit? Be more careful." He said before tossing Mjollnir back to Bjorn "I'm over this. Let's end it. Now."

"I couldn't agree more." Bjorn said before dashing towards David. Before he got to him, David pulled out his bag and yelled out "Absorb!" And the bag opened up, sucking them both into it, before falling to the ground.
