Thor was thrown back once more. Wiping a stream of blood from his nose, Thor's eyes narrowed; regrettable or not, this girl's power was a great danger to all who surrounded her. It was capable even of harming the son of Odin himself. Thor had met few spellcasters since his exile but he remembered his lessons back on Asgard. [i]When facing a being capable of reordering the world...[/i] Thor had been no older than a dozen summers but his father had already begun teaching him and his brother everything they would need to know when Odin ruled no longer. The lessons were numerous and had been both physical and metaphysical; warriors, wise men and warlocks from the Nine Realms and beyond had come to Asgard to teach the young princes. Thor had been younger back then and had scoffed at the idea of magic being any true danger, his experience had been of court magicians and parlour tricks; the visiting warlocks had called upon the elements, revealed colourful magic rings with the power to make manifest what lingered in their minds and, more impressively to the young godling, had vanquished any warrior who challenged them. One of the visitors had then taught Thor how to access his natural abilities of summoning lightning and controlling the elements. Thor had the pride of youth back then and had boasted of his abilities to all who would listen. His teacher had then challenged him to back up his boasts and call upon lightning. Upon accepting the challenge, the young boy had promptly been knocked unconscious by his fleet-footed teacher. Upon waking up, the young Thor had been given his final lesson: [i]'when facing a being capable of reordering the world,'[/i] his teacher had said, [i]'give them not the chance to act. Simply smite them where they stand.'[/i] It was a lesson the young Thor had taken to heart. Shaking himself out of his reverie Thor focused upon the Scarlet Witch, she had been shaken from their impact and was only now beginning to mutter a spell to herself. Thor threw himself into the air, hammer outstretched in a mighty blow. His swing never reached its target for, in a moment of panic the witch gestured and, from its berth in the parking lot, a behemoth of a vehicle slammed into the Thunder God, knocking him to the floor. With a roar of anger, Thor used his strength to smash through the vehicle that was pressed against him. The witch was still recovering from her efforts with the vehicle. Thor's eyes narrowed, [color=FFA500][b]'Now we end this,'[/b][/color] he promised, [color=FFA500][b]'your foul presence will no longer endanger any citizen of this realm, I smite thee with the full power of Thor!'[/b][/color] With that battle-cry still echoing in his chest Thor channelled his power through Mjolnir and launched himself bodily through the air at his foe with a strike that would cleave her head from her shoulders.
