Storm and Thunder- Thor Odinson

4. How about stay alive?

''Before you start a war better know what you are fighting for.''

The Grandmaster introduced Thor ''Watch out for his fingers, they make sparks!''

Thor looked around searching the arena for anything useful when he saw Raya laying on a wall near him. If anyone saw her from far away they would think she was halfawake, the wall carrying her weight, from afar she looked defendless, like she was resting with her guard down. But Thor saw her eyes and her stormy eyes were awake, alive and ready.

The crowd cheered loudly as the Grandmaster said ''Here he comes. He is a creature. He's unique, none like him. He's undefeated. He's the reigning, the defending. Ladies and gentlemen. I give you your beloved, savage, incredible...''

The doors across the arena brust open as a big green creature in battle armor entered the field.

Thor's face lit up as he yelled ''YES!'' with a big smile on his face

Raya chocked with the air as she looked at the norse god like he was insane.

''HEY! HEY! We know each other! He's a friend from work! Where have you been? Everybody thought you were dead! So much has happened since I saw you last time. I lost my hammer, oh, and Loki is still alive! Hey Loki! Look who it is!'' Thor said pointing at the window where Loki was ''Banner, I never thought I'd say this but I am so happy to see you!''

Hulk looked at him with anger ''NO BANNER! ONLY HULK!''

Thor's smile vanished and he stepped backwards ''What are you doing? It's me, Thor.''

Hulk jumped in the air and punched the ground the norse god was on, luckly he was able to dodge the hit just in time. The green guy then smacked Thor with the hammer in his hand, sending him flying back. The god dragged a knife into the ground to stop himself from going any further.

''Banner, we're friends. This is crazy, I don't wanna hurt you!'' Thor yelled still trying to reach his friend

Raya stood from the wall after Thor only dogged the next hits and not attacked the Hulk. The Grandmaster pointed his hand at her, telling her to stay where she was and not get into the fight. She obeyed and leaned back on the wall, watching with wide eyes how the idiot of a god was trying to calm the beast.

''Hey, big guy. Sun's getting real low...'' he was reaching for Hulk's hand ''That's it, sun is going down. I won't hurt you anymore, no one will.''

But the green guy was not having it because he grabbed Thor by the ankles and started smacking him to the ground.
   Raya watched the fight between the two opponents and as expected Hulk was winning. The young goddess looked at the man who was being beaten up, but still managed to have hope in his eyes. All he wanted was to save his kingdom, innocent people from a cruel fate, the exact thing she tried to do a long time ago. Memories of pain, war, blood and hope cam to her.

I lighting bolt threw Hulk back, catching the girl's attention.
  Thor's eyes were blue and lighting bolts went out of his hands.

''Thunder, Thunder, Thunder!'' the crowd started yelling as the god of thunder hit Hulk again

Raya's eyes widened as she looked at the Grandmaster, she knew he would never let Thor win. He pushed the remote in his hands, the Asgardian being electrocuted.
 The young goddess saw the look on Hulk's face, she had trained with him, she knew what he was about to do, he was going to kill Thor. She told herself to just sit and watch, why would she care? Then she remembered it wasn't just his life at stake, but also millions of people who were waiting for him to save them. Raya looked at his electrocuted boy laying on the ground. In that moment she didn't see the powerful God of Thunder, no, she saw a broken man who was trying to stay alive, not for himself but for all the people depending on him, he was trying not to break for them, so he could save them. But what not everyone knows is that heroes need saving too, they are broken too, they just fight so no one would feel the pain they felt. In that moment Raya saw herself all those years ago.
 So, when Hulk jumped in the air she launched herself forward, kneeling near Thor, her arms making and x above their head which turned into a grey shield like a tornado, made of wind and storm.

 Thor looked at her from where he was staying, her face and shield being the last thing he saw before blacking out.
