A Tale of Mischief and Mutants

Worthy

—-Sam—-

I reach my only free arm out in desperation. I need to do something, anything to distract these officers from those kids. If I could just throw something at them they might be distracted long enough for a few of the kids to get away. I feel something seem to fly into my hand, I don't question it. I hope this distracts them. I throw whatever the object is.

I look up in surprise as the men on top of me release their grip and start to back away. Then I see what it is that I threw. Mjölnir is set on the chest of one of the officers that had been making their way to the kids a moment before, he's pinned to the ground. Everyone is stunned including myself.

The kids stand there, their mouths agape. I uncertainly try to call the hammer to me not fully believing that's what had happened. It comes flying to my hand without any hesitation.

I look at the stunned officers who look unsure of how to handle this situation. I can't help but smile a little realizing the advantage I now have. I begin to battle them using the legendary weapon. I push back and soon the officers have retreated all the way back up to the ground floor.

I send Mjölnir to take them all down. Soon they're all unconscious on the floor. I don't want to make me leaving any harder than it already is. I go up to Laura and help her off the ground where she'd landed after an officer had gotten a lucky shot to her head. I hear the cars pull away outside they're retreating, for now my family is safe. She looks around the room at all the officers.

"What the fuck was that?!"

She's clearly beyond confused. I give her a small smile and call the hammer to me from where it sits on the floor. She looks at the hammer in shock.

"That's not what I think it is."

"It is but I came over to you to explain. I can't stay here."

"Why the fuck not?!"

"There's too much to explain exactly why but I want you to make sure the others know I'm safe, but I have to leave."

I take off.

"Sam! What the fuck?! Sam come back!"

I hear her grow both more quiet and more desperate as I run off. I know she'll be on my tail soon along with the rest of them. I don't want to see them all only to have to leave, so I pick up the pace my legs scream for me to stop but I just keep running. I'm about to dial Thor when I see him standing leaning on a tree with his arms crossed. He stands up straight when I approach him and looks at me proudly smiling.

"I knew it."

He opens up the bifrost and we're transported back to Tønsberg.
