[b]Kano Thorson - New York City[/b] Traveling to Midgard had been a choice he wanted to make. Growing up to stories of his brave courageous father Thor he had much to live up too. While it had been many decades since the spell was cast that banished the denizens of Asgard from earth he was still able to view the realm with aid from Heimdall. His viewings of the developments in the mortal world had disgusted him. The sheer amount of oppression & discrimination against the mutant populace was disheartening to him. As the future king of Asgard he sought to be a kind & understanding being. He wanted to implement freedom in all 9 realms & ensure all the residents would be allowed a life of fairness & freedom. In his eyes the United Empire was a freedom deterrent & therefore just as much a threat to the liberty of the realms as an army of frost giants or murderous rock trolls. Of course since being on earth he was upset that he’d been rendered mortal. Still at the very least he was grateful he wasn’t powerless having still retained his mutant superhuman powers. He’d never bothered to master his superhuman abilities, but in the past few weeks he’d grown more adept with the use of those powers. “I need to find mighty mjolnir sooner or later. It’s been almost 2 months since I’ve wielded the hammer & the power of the gods.” Kano muttered to himself as he took a few sips of his cold ice tea. He was positioned in a jamaican restaurant feasting on a combination of jerk chicken, plantains & pilaf rice. [I]You have to listen to me. There’s a bigger threat, you do need your hammer. KIVA is the biggest evil, the mortals shall meet their end by the hand of this murderous machine. This madness will not stop at the ravaging of Midgard, all the realms will face peril under the threat of KIVA once it sweeps mutant kind off the table.[/I] Future Kano communicated to the Kano of the present as he gulped down more of the home made sweet tea. “This again…who are you? Where are you?” Kano inquired slamming his fist against the table, drawing some judgmental looks & aggravated glares from a few other customers as well as the two employees working who were the entirety of the wait staff currently. It was lunch rush so there wasn’t much activity. He didn’t even bother to look around to check the visual cues he was getting from others present as it appeared like he was just siting & talking to himself. His future self determined to showcase more of the future continued to push to show him further messages. The god turned man felt a hinge of pain as his vision became blurry. Suddenly he was pulled into an entirely different location, his mind that is. Leaving his body a physical shell at the table who didn’t even respond when either the waitress or waiter came by o ask if he needed a refill of his ice tea. Flashes of visions filled his mind. He saw nuclear missiles soaring through the sky, then saw a view of the earth from outer space. From his perspective he wad an astral projection floating on the outskirts of space near the earth. The view changed to multiple locations around the globe watching nukes rain down. Entire cities were decimated, nuclear explosions engulfed the planet. Civilization was torn apart, people screaming in horror as they were irradiated, burned & disintegrated from the global nuclear holocaust. This was followed by visions of armies of machines marching through the decimated remains of earth. Alpha Sentinels, Omega Sentinels, oscorp drones, android sentinels, iron drones, iron man suits piloted by AI, drones etc & more. They spread throughout the earth taking orders from an android cyborg name KIVA with red hair, and a blue white robotic power suit around it’s/her synthetic skin floating in the air issuing commands to the army. He saw visions of humans & mutant survivors of the nuclear holocaust hiding & living in bunkers underground. Stock piling weapons, superhuman training their powers at dirty underground safe-houses, and said underground warehouses getting raided by KIVA’s machine armies. [I]All of this is the work of KIVA, even the dreaded United Empire is but a pawn to this civilization erasing threat. You must find the others, and place them together in a unified front. Get them operational to battle against KIVA!! Also the hammer has been taken by the DAA, it is[/I] Before Future Kano could speak anymore the vision ended. Screaming and yelling was heard, followed by the sound of robotic voices, and lasers going off. The vision from his future self fizzled out the last sounds he heard where yelling that “KIVA’s here” & explosions. Coming back to his senses Kano could only shake his hand, taking out his phone he glanced down a the time. He’d been spaced out traveling through visions of the future for almost fifteen minutes. For the past few days he’d been getting audio messages from his future incarnation, but today he’d been pulled deeper into the future than ever before. This time he’d truly seen the devastation & destruction this KIVA would bring about the world. Going to google he typed in the word KIVA, and took a sip of his drink as information came up from different search results. “KIVA the world’s leader, the god of the new age, the leader the citizens of the empire need.” Kano continued to read as he found a wikapedia entry about KIVA, it was worshipped as some sort of deity to the united empire’s global populace. He decided he’d need to a lot time for more research into this KIVA, as well as figure out the identities of the other people he saw with his future self in the underground bunker. He felt that those individuals would be the most likely to aid him in his quest of liberating the world from the threat of both the United Empire & this dastardly KIVA.
