------------------------------------------------------
Thor and Akane stared at the handprint in shocked silence.
'Fuck, I forgot to control my strength again. I thought I was better than this!' Thor cursed himself with his thoughts.
While Thor was sleeping he was having a nightmare about the time the scientists decided that they'd see just how good Thor's regeneration was, so they cut open his skin, cut out his flesh, filled his wounds with salt, poisoned him, pounded his bones into mush, cut up his eyes, cut off his ears and forcefully smashed out his teeth. And as if to add even more salt to his wounds, they bet money on how long he'd stay conscious for. Which was the whole thing.
When he woke up he thought he was back on that operation table, chained down. Waiting for the pain to begin, totally helpless.
But when he realised that he was in school he looked down at the desk that he just crushed with his bare hands. He quickly looked up and saw non-other than Akane of the famous 5 staring at him from across his desk.
"Uhh, hehe, don't make these desks like they used to, eh?"
Thor desperately tried to form up some sort of excuse in his mind, but he had nothing.
"Uh, ye-yeah..."
As the atmosphere started to get even more awkward, Harry White came to his rescue.
"Hey Akane, come over here! I'm getting to the good part!"
Akane looked at Thor, trying to figure out the enigma that he was. Then shaking her head she decided that it would be physically impossible for someone to crush metal, she walked off and over to where her friends were.
Seeing her walk away, Thor heaved a sigh of relief.
'Guess she didn't see, thank god.' Thor didn't want to move away, and killing her would be troublesome.
He turned back to his desk and was about to continue cursing himself when their teacher walked back into the classroom.
"Okay students, put away your lunch, it's time for class."
""Yes Ms Silver""
Thor looked up from his desk and at his teacher. She was a young woman, only 20 years old with blonde hair that reached her waist, a pretty face and a nicely matured body. She was loved by almost every male in the school, apart from Thor. He wasn't really interested in love at the moment.

"Okay, take out your math note books and prepare to write until your hands feel like lead!"
The class groaned in protest, knowing that their complaints would change nothing.
"Thor, read out the steps to solving the formula we wrote before lunch."
"Yes mam." Thor responded in his usual gruff, deep voice.
"Call me Ms Silver like everyone else Thor."
"Yes mam."
The teacher just sighed and continued with her lesson.
The day from that point progressed normally, until the end of the day.
Thor grabbed his bag and walked out of his school gates, then remembering that he forgot his books in the class room he rushed back.
He had to run really slowly compared to his real ability, so he wasn't too suspicious.
As he reached his class room he wondered if there would be a pretty girl waiting for him in the class room, but dismissed the idea. I mean, his life isn't a light novel.
He couldn't help but suppress a small flame of excitement in his mind as he opened the door though.
And what greeted him was...
An empty class room.
'Figures.' Thor thought, as he grabbed his books and stuffed them into his bag. Feeling his little flame of excitement extinguish.
He walked out the school gates and headed home.
On his way back to his apartment, he started getting exited about the new martial art he was going to practice. It was a Chinese martial art that was often called the 'Drunken fist', it involved using the balls of your feet and roll around and soften the blows of enemies and then using their outstretched limbs to execute throwing moves on them. Thor planned to integrate his judo into it.
However as he reached a large street crossing he saw the famous five all waiting to cross the street too, from what he could hear they were chatting about what to do on the weekend.
He saw Harry say something which caused Amelia to blush, and Mia to get cross.
'It's like he walked straight out of a cliche manga.' Thor thought to himself.
The light turned green, then following the lane lights the crossings light also turned green.
The famous five walked out onto the street with Thor, who they still hadn't noticed was near them.
Then the six of them heard screaming and the screeching of tires, Thor turned his head to see a mini-van speeding towards them at high speeds.

It had been hiding behind a truck so they didn't see it until it was too late, with only two or three seconds until the vehicle hit them, Harry and Akane stepped out in-front of the others and waited for their end.
Thor, after seeing this felt his legs move on their own. And before he knew it he was standing a few metres in-front of the five, feeling himself moving Thor wondered what had happened to him.
A few years ago, he would've watched them get hit without so much as a grimace on his face. But now here he was, protecting people that he's only known for about a year,
'Shit, I'm getting soft aren't I?'
'Well, I wonder if I'll get reincarnated as a goblin or something if I die..'
Thor then shut off all unnecessary thoughts and thought about how he was going to deal with the van that was only a few metres away from himself.
He could just use brute force, but not even a super soldier could ignore the laws of physics. If he met the car head on he would just be pushed back, then he and van would squash the famous five behind him.
Eventually he would stop the van but that would defeat his original purpose.
Thor thought about it and then chose one method.
He took a stance he knew from judo, lowering his centre of gravity and spreading out his feet until he was sidelong with the van. Then as it reached him he spun around backwards on his back leg, then bringing out his leg he executed the brutal spin kick he learnt from teakwondo.
But instead of just kicking the vehicle he landed his leg somewhat softly on the side of the van, and then using the rotation of his body, he pushed the van to the side until it swerved to the left and out of the way of him and the five. Then it screeched down the street until it came it an eventual stop.
Landing back into his stance he took a deep breath.
People may wonder why he didn't just use his hands, well the answer is that a persons legs are still three times stronger than their arms. And while he could have used his arms, his legs had a much better chance of success.
Then Thor remembered the famous five and turned around to look at them.
Everyone apart from two of the five had their eyes shut tight, awaiting their end that wasn't coming.
Akane and Lucas were staring at Thor in a shocked silence. Their eyes wide and their jaws looked like they might even hit the floor.
Thor stood up straight, brought his left foot snapping up against his right and saluted. Traditional military style.
Thor felt a little stupid doing this, but he couldn't help it. One of the things that the research facility taught him extremely harshly was military etiquette. Every time he didn't show proper etiquette they would throw him in a tank filled with electric eels and blue-boxed jelly fish.
Then Thor brought his finger up to his mouth and made a 'Shush' motion.
After this, Thor sprinted away at an impossible speed. He needed to get away before the other three saw him.
He sprinted across the street and into an alleyway, then he used the alleyways like a tunnel system, constantly turning and changing direction until he was sure that they'd never be able to follow him.
Once he confirmed this he started to walked back back to his apartment, when he started feeling uncomforted in his left foot he looked down.
"Aww, fuck!"
One of his brand new sneakers were in tatters.
'Well, I doubt this day could get any worse.' Thor thought in a kind of positive way.
Eventually he reached his apartment, which was apart of a large apartment complex. Taking the elevator up to his room, once he reached his room he swiped it with his key-card and walked in.
His apartment consisted of a bathroom, a bedroom, a dining room and a large empty room that could have once been a lounge-room, but was now being used as Thor's training room.
It had various weapons decorating the walls and had a few pictures of famous martial artists, Thor walked past these and picked up the new book he ordered from an antique martial arts store.
He walked into his training room and started practicing 'drunken fist' to try and take his troubled mind off some matters.
With every execution of a stance or strike, he felt himself enter a new world.
His world.

Yes, I introduced the teacher to be a sexy babe.

Imma turn him into such a mega badass that even the original super soldier (master chief) will shine his shoes!
