"Do you plan to travel somewhere, My King?" Heimdall asks Thor, ready to open the Bifrost for the new King.

"Yes, Jotunheim." Thor answers, receiving a raised brow from Heimdall. "And I forbade you to tell anyone about our departure."

"You are King and I will follow your orders, but be warned. I will honor my sworn oath to protect this Realm as its Gatekeeper. If your return threatens the safety of Asgard, the Bifrost will remain closed to you. You'll be left to die in the cold wastes of Jotunheim. King or not." Heimdall says resolutely.

"I have no plan to die today." Thor reply's in confidence.

"None do..." Heimdall replies as he inserts his golden sword into the control panel, and the Bifrost fires up.

...

After hours of trekking through the frozen hellscape of Jotunheim, Thor and his party made it to Laufey, the King of all Jotuns. Thor demanded answers while all Jotuns, including Laufey, merely laughed and jeered at their every word.

Asgard may see the Nine Realms as theirs, but most of these realms were abandoned after the war it took to win them. When your new self-proclaimed King leaves and never comes back after decimating your home, it's hard to really see them as your King.

This is especially true for Jotunheim, where Odin's war brought nothing but destruction to the realm.

After being made fun of by the Jotuns, Loki managed to convince Thor to retreat back to Asgard, but that was ruined by one simple comment from the crowd of Jotuns surrounding Laufey.

"Run back home, little Princess!"

How could the hotheaded Thor allow these words to go unpunished? Especially since he was a King now. Not a prince or even a princess for that matter...

This started a huge battle, which was certainly un-winnable. Thor and his compatriots may be strong, almost god-like in power, but this was a fight against an old rival of Odin, Laufey, and every Jotun in the area.

The Asgardians started off strong but they soon found themselves losing to the numbers advantage and Laufey hadn't even joined the fight. Simply choosing to sit back and watch with an amused smile on his blue face.

As the thought of their own deaths appeared in the minds of the Asgardian invaders, the bright light of the Bifrost shot down from the sky.

As the light dimmed, Odin Allfather appeared in his war armor with Gungnir grasped tightly in hand. He rode an eight-legged horse which was also in its own set of golden armor.

Odin may be old but his imposing figure caused all Jotuns to back away and cower behind Laufey, who glared in Odin's direction.

"Laufey, end this." Odin says resolutely.

"We aren't the ones that started it..." Laufey replies, which causes Thor and the rest to duck their heads in shame. "The new King of Asgard comes to Jotunheim seeking war, should we not give it to him?"

The Jotuns at Laufey's back gained some confidence from the words of their king as they jeered and prepared to fight.

"I understand, but these are the actions of an overzealous boy. Treat them as such. We can stop this before it spirals out of control." Odin replies diplomatically.

Sadly, Laufey wasn't going to listen. After all, Thor gave him exactly what he wanted. A reason to go to war with Asgard and Odin, his most hated enemy.

"We are beyond diplomacy..."

After dropping those fighting words, Laufey and his people stormed forward, but their advance didn't last long.

Not wanting to cause more bloodshed, Odin slams his spear to the ground, creating a shock wave that knocks the Jotuns back.

Raising his spear, he signals Heimdall and the Bifrost shoots down once again, taking every Asgardian out of Jotunheim.

Laufey and his men, who stood in the cold wastes that they called home, looked down at the imprint left by the Bifrost with sneers on their blue faces.

As they all return safely to the Bifrost at the end of the rainbow bridge, a huge argument begins between an angry father and son.

Thor wanted to stay and fight, while Odin was fuming at his son's actions and the fact that he didn't seem to understand what he had done wrong.

"You're a vain, greedy, cruel boy!" Odin says as the argument rises to its peak.

"And you are an old man and a fool!" Thor replies in kind though he would later wish he had kept his mouth shut.

The whole world seemed to stop at Thor's words. Odin falls quiet as if he realized something. When he spoke again, there was something terrifying beneath the calmness of his words.

"A fool, yes... I was a fool to think you were ready." Odin states as he looks at his son in disappointment. "Thor Odinson... You have ignored the sound advice of your Father. Through your arrogance and stupidity, you have opened these peaceful Realms and innocent lives to the horrors of war once again." The Allfather says as he plunges Gungnir into the Bifrosts control panel.

The Bifrost energy begins building as it activates. With Odin's rage, it fires and the Bifrost opens at the end of the platform, creating a portal behind Thor.

Odin turns to his son as he stalks over like an angry lion.

"You are unworthy of this Realm..." Odin says as he rips away the insignias on Thor's armor, which showed that he is, in fact, King of Asgard. "Unworthy of your title... Unworthy of the loved ones you have betrayed and disappointed..."

"Y-You can't do that!" Thor replies with a horrified look on his face, which soon morphs into anger. "I am King!"

"Yes, and I am the Allfather..." Odin says as he ignores his son's pleas and continues on. "I hereby strip you of your powers..."

Extending his hand toward his son, Mjølnir goes flying from Thor's grip and into Odin's waiting hand.

"In the name of my father and of his father before him..." Odin uses what was once Thor's lightning to strike his son and completely strip him of his Asgardian armor. "I cast you out!"

As he proclaims this, Odin thrusts Mjolnir forward and with a crack of thunder, Thor is hurled back into the open Bifrost and disappears into the vortex.

Odin holds Mjolnir in his hand, staring at it bitterly. He closes his eyes, lost in contemplation as he brings it to his lips.

"Whoever holds this hammer, if they be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor." He whispers and runes appear on the side of the hammer, as if carved into its smooth surface.

Suddenly, Odin turns and hurls the hammer into the Bifrost.

As he walks over to take his spear back, deactivating the Bifrost, Odin collapses to the floor and falls unconscious from the overuse of his powers.

"So you're saying this Hammer fell from the sky and nothing can lift it?" Peter asked as he looked through the file that Fury gave him. 'I didn't think Thor would come so soon...'

The pictures in the folder showed the huge crater in New Mexico with a pristine Mjølnir sitting in the center with its handle pointing to the sky.

"Yes, we don't know for sure if it fell from the sky or not, but that's what it looks like. There's nothing under the hammer holding it in place either." Fury explains what they know at this point. "We tested the metal as well, but couldn't find a match for anything on the planet. There also seems to be some sort of runic writing on the hammer's surface."

"It looks like Ancient Norse..." Peter replies as he observes an up-close picture of the hammer.

"Can you read it?" Fury asks.

"Yeah..." Peter confirms as the long hours in the library of Kamar Taj weren't spent in vain.

"Well, what does it say?" Fury asks curiously.

"It says things are just about to get interesting..." Peter says, getting an annoyed grunt from Fury. "Let's go to New Mexico. I want to see the Mjølnir."

"Mjølnir?"

—2 days ago—

"Do you think he's dead?" A woman asks as a group of three crowds around the downed form of Thor Odinson. "I think it was legally your fault."

The three were driving in the desert at night, as they were following the storm, trying to understand the odd readings they were picking up from the activation of the Bifrost. Though they didn't know that was the cause.

During that drive, a man appeared out of nowhere and was swiftly hit by their car.

"Darcy, shut up and get the first aid kit from the glove box." Another woman, who seemed to be in charge says in exasperation.

"Jane, we need to get him to a hospital." A man says as he looks down worriedly at Thor.

"Hammer..." Thor mutters as his eyes groggily open.

"Yes, we know you're hammered." Darcy jokes as she returns with a first aid kit in hand.

Climbing to his feet, Thor stares up at the sky and starts yelling.

"Father! Heimdall! I know you can hear me! Open the Bifrost!" Thor calls but receives nothing in return.

As the two scientists and assistant try to calm the obviously drunk and brain-damaged man, Thor gets a bit heated, which makes Darcy pull a taser from her purse.

"You dare to threaten Thor, King of Asgard with such a puny..." Thor says as he looms over Darcy, causing her to act in order to defend herself.

*Tzzzzzzzz*

Darcy touches the handheld taser to Thor's exposed stomach, making him convulse and fall to the floor unconscious.

Her two friends and employers looked at her with shocked gazes.

"What? He was freaking me out..."

A/N 1636 words. Okay that was the last of the Thor build up chapters. Now we can follow Peter's POV fully in the coming chapters.
