Strength and Weakness

"TORUNN YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS !"

"JAMES I WARNED YOU IF YOU WEREN'T READY YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE CAME IT'S NOT MY FAULT YOU DIDN'T LISTEN !"

"BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WASN'T GONNA BE THIS BIG I MEAN A FIGHT TO THE DEATH ! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING !"

James and Torunn had been arguing inside the room Amora had set them up in for the past 30 minutes leaving Francis Pym and Azari only to awkwardly watched but nonetheless they were no doubt on Torunn's side

"I agree with James Torunn" Pym spoke "this is crazy, I mean a gladiator fight, to the death ?"

"Well technically since Torunn is from Norse mythology it wouldn't be called a Gladiator fight as Gladiators rose from Greek descent and not Norse so this would actually be-"

"SHUT IT PYM !" everyone yelled

"Right, sorry...."

Getting up from his seat Francis spoke

"Look, everyone, let's just take a breather for a second, ok"

The tension needed to be cut and the glares James and Tournn gave to each other proved it as with a final huff they broke apart on either side of the room

"Now that that's clear let's motion that yes While Torunn challenged the pretty boy to a fight to the death. We have to take in the consideration that we all agreed to come here on her behalf. I mean WE ARE ON FREAKING ASGARD HERE !"

"But at the end of the day this is Torunn's call no ours. It's her homeland and her heritage"

"I'm sorry, are you agreeing with her ?" James said

"Not fully, I'm just....looking at the plays here. With the plan already set and the fight going to happen whether we like it or not the best we can do is help Torunn prepare for the day"

"Your agreeing with her" James breathed as he threw his hands in the air before groaning

While biting his lip Pym stood up and sighed

"Francis is right" he said furthermore making James sigh

"It's Torunn's call not ours, the best we can do is be there to make sure she wins. I mean it is her birth right after all. She's technically just defending her honor"

Silence casted upon the team's argument as Francis just turned his head and smiled at Torunn with a head nod showing he was in full support of her decision. Something that too made Torunn smile back in appreciation

"James....their right. As much as we don't like it, it's Torunn's play. Were just the spectators here"

With his arms crossed as he bit his lip James hated how right they were

Honestly he was being a hypocrite and this was truly Torunn's play he had no right invading it due to his own thoughts so with a final sigh and a groan as he held the brink of his nose with his fingers James groaned before looking up at the group and then Torunn

"Just please......don't die"

Torunn had just smiled brightly

"I promise I won't die"

A knock happened at the door before it shortly opened revealing a servant who just smiled

"Hi yes, Ms Thorsdóttir you've been summoned by the great one. Please meet him at his hut. You can bring your friends if you'd like"

That's all the women said before closing back the door leaving everyone in confusion

"The great one ?"
