"We can't win this one," muttered Meg beside Thor. "We need to get out of here. Now."
Thor nodded somberly. "Let's go get Apollo and the other one."
"HELP ME!" screamed Apollo, barely shielding Reyna as Outriders swarmed at them.
"Oh no. Oh no," muttered Meg.
"RETREAT!" she yelled at the karpoi as Thor blasted the Outriders with pure lightning, blinding them completely. At the same moment, he grabbed Meg and flew out of the sea of Outriders towards Apollo and Reyna, followed by the karpoi.
Suddenly, Apollo had an idea. A very stupid idea, but one that might work.
"I AM A GOD, YOU STUPID WORTHLESS CREATURES!" he yelled at the top of his lungs, mustering all the power he could in his meager human form. "YOU WILL NOT SUBDUE ME! NOW SCRAM!"
The Outriders stopped for a second and stared at him, confused as to why this puny mortal was screaming at them. Even Reyna stirred, mumbling something about nightmares. In that moment of hesitation, Thor grabbed them and flew high up in the sky.
As soon as they were far enough in the air, he summoned the Bifrost. But before they could enter, a cold presence stopped them in their tracks.
"But where do you think you're going?" snarled Ebony Maw behind them. "Surely you didn't think you could escape this easily, could you?"
"Of course not," growled Thor. "But that's exactly what we're doing." And he unleashed the full force of a thunderstorm at Maw, and leapt into the Bifrost with Apollo, Meg and Reyna in tow, with Camp Jupiter burning to the ground underneath them.
"Where are we going?" stuttered Apollo, clearly still in shock. Around them was a mirage of shimmering colours and brilliant light. It was almost too much for him to take in, but after all, he was--or at least, used to be--used to such things, as a god.
"The only remotely safe place there still is. Wakanda, here we come."
