Purple Lightning's Transformation

"Gwen, I've to go somewhere. This is key to my house. You can do your research here. Well, you can always come if you miss me," Noah gave her his spare keys to Gwen.

"Go away! Who needs you here anyway," Gwen slightly blushed and quickly ignored him before focusing back on the interfaces in front of her. She went into her work mode.

Noah quickly disappeared from the room before opening a portal towards New Mexico.

Then, he summoned out his lightning wings on his back. Since his fire outclassed his lightning, he couldn't use his combination of fire and lightning anymore. He flew towards the sky and observed the crater from far away. He had acted a moment too late.

'It seems SHIELD is faster than me,' Around the crater, the spy organization, The SHIELD, who was responsible for any possible threat to earth, had already covered the incident. White tents surrounded the craters. It seemed that Noah would have to break in to have contact with the Mjolnir, hammer of Thor, god of thunder.

Since Mjolnir was the main weapon of Thor, it was supposed to contain a trace of his divinity and Noah wanted to use the opportunity to advance his purple lightning.

It seemed like there would be an unavoidable fight for Noah. SHIELD wouldn't just allow him to use the hammer as he preferred to. Noah summoned the venom suit as his identity was still too precious to be disclosed there. He wanted to wait until the Chitauri invasion to reveal his superpowers.

Tonight, he would only be focusing on his lightning, hence, he hid his divine fire deep in his soul as he hoped to avoid any unnecessary conflict between the two elements when his purple lightning transformed.

He flew towards the sky and the moon before dropping back towards the center of the crater. Taking the advantage of gravity, his speed kept accelerating until he dropped right next to the Mjolnir on one knee. The impact blew away SHIELD's equipment and tents.

Lightning Barrier.

He created a field of lightning surrounding him. Anything that entered the area would be electrocuted. Noh couldn't protect himself while connecting to Mjolnir, hence ensuring his safety first was a priority.

Before he could touch Mjolnir's handle. Two arrows flew towards his head. However, as soon as they touched the barrier, they exploded into ashes. Hawkeye was the least of his concern at the moment.

On Mjolnir, Noah could perceive and read the runes inscribed on it.

'Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.'

Noah carefully touched the Mjolnir's handle. He closed his eyes and tried to send his sense into the lightning hammer. Deep in the hammer held a world of lightning. In the center of it, a pure glob of energy was being held there. Noah knew that was the divinity he had been searching for all along this time. However, with only his sense, the connection between him and the divinity was too weak. He needed a bridge to create a connection between them. Only then would he be worthy.

"Then let my lightning be the bridge."

He mustered his control and manipulation of lightning to summon it to the best that he could. Sparks of lightning appeared around his body. The sparks looked harmless but if a normal person touched one of them, they would immediately die. At the same time, he gathered all his strength and tried to lift the hammer.

He sent his lightning into the hammer's world, building a bridge between him and the lightning divinity. At that moment, he felt the power of thunder coursing through his veins. He was filled with the power of Thor, blessed by Odin Borson, King of Asgard and the protector of the nine realms. He held the majestic hammer in his left hand. The lightning bolt tattoo on his left arm and his left purple eye was shining brilliantly as he felt no one could match his power now. Noah felt unstoppable.

However, he quickly bit his tongue to prevent that thought from progressing further. He knew that the power he was feeling was only an illusion. It was not entirely his. If Odin could grant him that power. He would surely be able to take it back from him too. He didn't want that kind of power. It was unreliable.

Nonetheless, his main reason for coming here had been fulfilled. He already built a connection between him and the lightning divinity. Thus, he just needed to find somewhere safe to start the transformation of his purple lightning into a divine lightning on the same level as his divine fire right now.

He left the hammer at its previous place. He left it for Thor. He didn't need the hammer for his main weapon.

He lifted up his lightning barrier. As soon as that happened, countless men in black suit were aiming at him with their weapons, mostly guns and a bow. Only Hawkeye was using a bow and arrow in this era of time.

Agent Phil Coulson, "State your identity or we'll open fire!"

Noah didn't respond to Phil. Instead he summoned his wings, but this time a pair of fire wings appeared instead of lightning. His lightning element was in a process of transformation, which he put it on hold for a moment.

As soon as he made his move, Phil ordered a command to his subordinates, "Fire!"

Noah was not worried as they fired at him. His venom suit was highly capable in dealing with bullets from small-arms weapons firing conventional ammunition. He ignored their attacks entirely. In fact, he considered himself as kind as he didn't fight back against them. Or else, SHIELD would have a lot of casualties that night. He jumped and flapped his wings. He flew vertically and opened a portal back to California when the men in suits lost visual of him.

When he arrived home, he put the incident on the back of his mind. He didn't mind the small aggression towards him. He needed to go back to New Mexico for Destroyer's arrival anyways. His focus was on his lightning at that moment.

The transformation this time was a little different than the transformation of his crimson fire. Clouds of storm were beginning to gather right above him as he started his lightning transformation. Lightning poured down from the skies. The thunder sounds were too deafening and resounding.

Then, lightning began to strike down onto Noah. Noah had a bad memory with lightning bolt, as he died from it in his previous life. However, this time around he was different. With his manipulation of lightning, he possessed a certain immunity and resistance towards lightning. Coupled with his physical strength and venom's protection, it would be hard for it to kill Noah for the second time.

The strike didn't end there. Lightning continued to strike Noah again and again. The intensity and power of the lightning was increasing each time it struck Noah. It was like he was facing a lightning tribulation that he had read in a wuxia novel.

However, he could feel each lightning bolt was refining his body, tempering his soul, making himself even stronger.

Hence, he didn't avoid the incoming strike. He also could discern that the transformation of his purple lightning was progressing further each time the lightning bolt struck him. By the time the ninth lightning bolt hit him, the transformation would be finished.

He endured until the eight lightning bolt. He just needed to withstand one more. His cloth underneath his venom's suit was already tattered and his body was battered. The last lightning bolt was going to be the strongest attack he had ever receive. The last lightning bolt bombarded his body again, blasting his flesh scorched black and into several pieces. But his regeneration ability kicked in and began to heal his body. He had survived.

The purple lightning's transformation was also complete. Now he felt the two elements in his soul had reached a stable point as if they were in some sort of agreement with each other.

He received great benefits in his lightning's transformation process this time. His flesh was continuously attacked, it broke apart, and then was continuously pieced together with his regeneration, refined many times over. Every inch of Noah's flesh was shining, the light within his body swirling, tattoos erupting, making him appear more and more powerful and unordinary.

The night was eventful for many people. SHIELD had its hand full with handling unidentified subject(Noah) and Thor was experiencing the life of an ordinary human. Noah himself experienced an out-of-the-world phenomenon which he would always remember.
