Thor's POV

"Now I know what you're thinking, 'Oh no, Thor's in a cage, how did this happen?' Well sometimes you have to get captured just to get a straight answer out of somebody. It's a long story.., but basically I'm a bit of a hero. See, I spent some time on Earth..fought some robots, saved the planet a couple of times. Then I went searching through the cosmos, for some magic colorful infinity stone things..didn't find any. That's when I came across a path of death and destruction, which ended me all the way into this cage..where I met you." I vent to the skeleton across from me

Its jaw falls from it, sliding down its rib cage onto the bottom of the previously mentioned cage. Sounds grumble around us, cluing me into my curiosity more and more.

"Hmm." I hum

I look around, trying to look for any sign of life or maybe even a sign of death due to where I am.

"How much longer do you think we'll be here?" I add

A chain rattles and soon the bottom of the cage is empties for me to twist and turn, trying to look about to check my surroundings.

"Thor..Son of Odin." Surtur smirks

"Surtur, Son of a..B*tch. You're still alive. I thought my father killed you like..half a million years ago?" I chuckle

"I cannot die, not until I fulfill my destiny and lay waste to your home."

"You know it's funny you should mention that because I've been having these terrible dreams of late: Asgard up in flames, falling to ruins and you..Surtur are at the center of all of them."

"Then you have seen Ragnarok, the fall of Asgard, the great prophecy-" he stands up and leans towards me

"Hang on, hang on." I cut him off as my chains turn me to look away from him

I wriggle as I can

"I'll be back shortly. You know I really felt like we were connecting there." I joke

I twist as I can, soon coming back to face his charred face.

"Okay, so..Ragnarok. Tell me about it, walk me through it." I start

"My time has come, when my crown is reunited with the Eternal Flame I shall be restored to my full might. I will tower over the mountains, and bury my sword deep in Asgard's-"

"Oh, hang on. Give it a second. I swear I'm not even moving, it's just doing this on its own. I'm really sorry." my chains continue to slowly turn me

Surtur sighs in his throne

"Okay, so lemme get this straight. You're going to put your crown into the Eternal Flame, and then you'll suddenly grow as big as a house?" I repeat

"A mountain!" he defends

"The Eternal Flame that Odin keeps locked away on Asgard?"

"Odin, is not on Asgard. And your absence has left the throne defenseless." he corrects

My father's not on Asgard?

"Okay, so where is it? This crown?"

"This is my crown, the source of my power." he states as he points to his forehead

I've gotten such good lessons from Nat and Small Lady Rogers that Surtur's telling me everything I need to know without even realizing it.

"Oh, that's a crown. I thought it was a big eyebrow." I kirk my head

"It's a crown." he grumbles

"Anyway, it sounds like this all I have to do to stop Ragnarok is..rip that thing off your head." I snark
