Bruce, Nat and Fury stood in a row, looking into the lab's isolation room through a large window. The man inside paced back and forth, punching and kicking things every now and again. He was still only wearing his hospital gown, so his bare ass was literally out in full view. He didn't seem to care.

It had taken the joint effort of Nat, Fury and two guards to get him into the room and to lock the door, sealing him in. Bruce clutched his bruised wrist, proof enough that the man's strength was superhuman.

"Did he tell you his name?" Fury asked, not turning away from the viewing window. John Doe kicked the wall and a tile fell off.

"No, Sir," Bruce addressed him, "He was too busy screaming about something called Asgard. He said he's the king of wherever that is, but I didn't get a name."

Fury responded with silence. Nat sighed as John punched the bed.

"I'm going in." she said, not waiting for permission and typing in the passcode for the door. Neither Bruce nor Fury made any move to stop her, or follow her in.

The man turned in surprise at Nat's entrance and made to charge at her. She whipped her standard issue pistol from its holster and held it steady in his direction. He stopped, cocking his head. Bruce thought he saw Fury smile slightly.

"Tell me who you are." Nat's voice was flat and calm, which in itself held a certain level of dominance.

John Doe didn't reply, still staring at the gun in her hand. She saw where his gaze was and turned the safety off. The man flinched. This time Nat was the one cocking her head, but in challenge.

"My name is Thor, son of the late Odin, King of Asgard." He spoke loudly and proudly, as if accepting an award.

"Thank you. Can I lower my gun now?" Thor nodded, gingerly and she returned the gun to its holster. "We don't know where or what Asgard is. Is it somewhere not on Earth?"

Thor furrowed his brow. "Earth?" He spoke as if the idea of it was outlandish. "You mean to tell me I'm on Midgard?"

"Midgard?" Nat asked.

"Yes. Midgard is Earth's original name, given to it by my people. Your people named it Earth as the developed. I haven't been here in centuries."

"So you're an alien?" Nat looked him up and down, clearly reciprocating Bruce's own thoughts; he looked entirely human. He wasn't blue like a Kree, but perhaps he was a Skrull in disguise.

"Well, I suppose your people may call me that, but I prefer the word god." Bruce looked at Fury in both panic and awe, but Fury remained nonreactive. Bruce had never seen an alien in person before, only analysing tiny samples of their DNA. Thor was underwhelming, if he was being honest.

Wait... He thought to himself, realisation sparking in his mind. He punched the passcode into the door, bursting into the isolation room, ignoring Fury calling after him. Nat turned around, obviously expecting Fury, but when she saw Bruce she gave him a 'what the fuck?' look.

"Ah," Thor smiled, "It's the small man again." He looked to Nat and pointed at Bruce. "Look at him. Look how tiny he is!" He laughed heartily. Bruce tried not to be offended.

"Did you say Thor? And that you were a god?" Bruce asked hastily, before he was interrupted again.

"Why, yes." Thor pushed back his shoulders, proud. "My family and I came to Midgard a long time ago and your people heralded us as gods. I think they even made a religion out of us."
