《Spartan》Chapter 4: Spartan spirited away
Advertisement
Akane Violet had never been uneasy about anything in her life before. She had always been given the best gifts, lived in the conditions and her family was wealthy and stable.
So when she first met Thor Spartan she didn't know what this feeling was.
It was going to be the start of her fist day in being a second year at her high-school when he transferred into her school. She was sitting in the front row next to Harry White, so she was the closest to him when he stood out the front.
He looked wild, untamed. Like he'd just crawled out of a Rambo film.
He's hair was all over the place and reached his shoulders, hiding his eyes from everyone's gazes, except for Akane's.
Akane was always told that she had a good sense for people, so when she looked into his deep green eyes she saw sadness and despair, so much sadness. But within the expanse of negative emotions, she felt a small bit of hope was hiding amongst it.
She didn't even notice the amount of time that she'd been staring at him, so when he turned his head and looked back at her, she almost fell off her seat from embarrassment.
After that she discreetly observed him, only to find that even after 3 months had passed. He still didn't have any friends. Feeling sorry for him, and feeling an unexplainable urge to stomp out all the negative emotions surrounding him. She asked her friends if they'd let him join their little group.
Akane: "Hey guys, I feel a little sorry for the new guy. You think we could let him into our group?"
Amelia: "I agree, I've been feeling sorry for him too, i think that it'd be really nice of us to invite him into our group! What do you think Harry?"
Harry: "agreed, let's do it."
Mia: "okay, Harry and Lucas you go ask him."
Lucas looked up from the portable game he was playing and looked at Harry, nodding to confirm that he was fine with it.
The two of them proceeded to walk over to Thor's table, Thor was reading one of their science text books. Probably studying for the up coming test, Lucas thought.

Harry: "hey friend! You've been looking a little lonely over here for a while now, if you want you can join our little group if you want."
Lucas: "yes, it's fine with everyone, in case you were wondering."
Harry and Lucas said this with a vibrant smile on their faces, looking at Thor who looked back up at them.
Thor: "I'm sorry, but I'll have to decline. I'm not quite ready to be around people that much yet."
'Wow, his voice is so deep! It's like the very sound of his voice weighs a thousand ton!' Lucas and Harry both thought.
After hearing Thor's reply, they both slumped over and walked away to inform the rest of the group.
Amelia: "Oh, well it's okay! I'm sure that when he's ready, he'll talk to us! We just have to be sure that well welcome him with open arms!"
Akane: "How rude of him. I'll make him apologise!"
Akane started to stomp over to Thor's table to teach him a lesson or two when Mia stepped out in-front of her.
Mia: "It's okay Akane, it was his decision. Not ours."
Akane stopped, then muttering under her breath she walked back to their table.
Since that incident Akane didn't like Thor. She couldn't really place what was wrong with him, but she got a feeling.
When he crushed a desk with his bare hands that feeling got stronger.
Harry: "are you okay Akane? You've been looking like you've been troubled for a while now."
Akane stopped after hearing this. She felt that it wasn't fair that she made her friends worry about such a silly feeling. So she decided that she would just ignore the feeling, she had more important things to worry about, like her upcoming kendo tournament.
Akane: "don't worry, I've just been thinking about my kendo tournament."
Harry: "well okay then, I'm looking forward to watching it with Amelia!"
Hearing this, Amelia blushed scarlet. And Mia frowned at Harry.
Akane smiled, she loved her friends, they were like family to her. She treasured them greatly.
Then the road crossing sign turned green, she and her friends walked onto the road.
But a horrible screeching sound pierced the peaceful atmosphere. She looked to her right in horror, only to stare death in the face.

A mini-van had gone out of control and was screaming towards them, Akane leaped in-front of her friends, joined by Harry. In a last desperate attempt to protect them. But she didn't need to.
A large shadow stood before her.
She watched him take some sort of fighting stance, and then do the impossible.
With a single, powerful kick. He sent the van off course, missing her and her friends by only a metre. Then landing back into his stance and looking behind him.
'No way, I-it's.... Thor.'
Staring at him in utter silence until Thor snapped into a military style salute, and then made a shushing motion with his finger.
Then she watched him as he seemed to disappear from thin air.
The silence continued, no one daring to make a move, incase they might shatter the dream like moment.
In an expensive apartment complex, Thor was sleeping. But not soundly.
In the dream Thor was having, he was alone.
Alone in complete and utter darkness, he couldn't hear anything nor touch anything. Thor was remembering one of the cruel experiments done on him by the scientists. In this experiment they gave him a prototype drug, and his enhanced cells responded negatively to this drug.
This negative reaction caused him to lose all five of his senses. Sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. However his regenerative abilities caused him to stay conscious until the drug wore out.
He couldn't hear the scientists so he didn't know that the drug would wear off, as far as he knew he would spend the rest of his life in that pitiful state.
It felt like he was suspended in total and utter darkness, no one was going to come to his rescue and he couldn't do anything to help himself. He spent 3 weeks in this state, when he finally broke free of the drugs holds he had gone completely insane.
He spent a further 4 weeks in rehab to stove away his insanity.
Form this incident Thor found out something, he really hated being helpless. He hated knowing that he couldn't do anything. He hated feeling weak.
So from that day, Thor only stayed sane because one thing was going through his mind.
'I will break free from this helplessness.'
And he did, eventually.
Thor's bedside clock's alarm suddenly pierced through his dream, Thor desperately reached for the sound, the only thing that showed he existed. As he did he woke up and launched himself off his bed, smashing his face into the opposite wall to him.
"Ow, ow ow. Not doing that ever again."
Thor picked himself up off the floor and started preparing himself for school.
*RIIIIIIINNNGG*
A loud bell sounded, signifying that it was the start of a new school day. Thor walked into his classroom and seated himself down at his usual seat, then feeling people staring at him he turned around.
He saw Akane and Lucas staring at him, as if they were trying to bore holes through the back of his head with a glare. Thor looked straight back at Akane, which caused her to turn slightly red and look down.
Thor then met Lucas's gaze, but Lucas didn't look away. He stared straight back at Thor, like he was challenging him. Then he got up from his desk and walked towards Thor, weaving around people and desk alike.
When he reached Thor's desk, the two calmly stared at each other. They now had the attention of the entire class, who was silently looking at them, wondering what was going to happen.
Lucas opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by something no-one expected.
"What are yo-"
Thor's instincts went wild and he stood up, sending his desk flying. He felt like something big was about to happen.
Without warning a huge light blue floating symbol spanned across the class room. Then, it flashed a deep red and everyone vanished. No one had any time to make a move, not even Thor.
This incident would become known as the Carocen High school spirited away incident.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yep, they've finally been summoned!
Please comment below what you would want Thor's class or special ability (there might not be classes at all, maybe) to be called, and what would his class/special ability do?
I myself have a few good ideas but it never hurts to ask for a bit of advice!
