Chapter 26 by laverinthe

Na. . .

Party time

You crush the egg in your hand. All at once the flame within flows through you and envelopes you in cool blue fire. Your hair and clothes billow in the wind created by this outflow (you wish you had a trench coat just for the effect) and you feel good. Too good, you lose yourself in it and know that it shouldn’t be this good. But you don’t care. You push it to the limits and beyond, overcharged with the initial rush of this newfound capability, and you let out a triumphant roar of defiance against the creature that had the gall to stand against you. You feel the chorus within you cry out victoriously and feel one in particular steps forward and takes form.

I AM ODIN, KING OF KINGS.  MY STRENGTH SHALL BE YOURS.

Kneeling to your right now is one of the many that will serve you.  Even though he (you) is down on one knee he (you) is still a full head taller than you and when he stands, he is easily 12 feet tall.  He is a great behemoth of a man, wearing nothing but a loincloth made from bear hides and a massive cloak made with the fur hide of god only knows.  He wears a Viking helmet with massive horns sharpened to fine points and his whole body is covered in scars.  In his right hand he held a broadsword almost as big as you, with a jewel encrusted handle and runes written all along the blade.  He assumes a battle stance, waiting only for your command to unleash his fury.

You give him what he wants as you sweep a hand towards the ‘boss’ monster and Odin immediately charges towards it.  The beast stand on its front legs and its tail opens up into a mouth, revealing row after row of jagged teeth.

Psh, whatever.

The creature takes a bite at Odin but he (you) see it coming from a mile away and deftly sidestep it and with a blinding speed slices off the top half of the jaw.  The monster shrieks in rage and lashes out with the tendrils on its back.  They lash around his sword arm and try to throw you off your feet.  It manages to slide Odin a few inches forward before he holds his ground.  Then with a single tug throws the demon over his head, smashing it into the ground right next to you.  Apparently, he didn’t want you to feel left out in this engagement.  How thoughtful of him.  You walk over and take out your katana.  With one swoop, you hack away all the tendrils that were latched onto Odin and they fall to the ground in a useless heap.  You’re practically giddy from the power and decide to play around a little and see what else this guy can do.  You have Odin throw aside his sword and have him use his other skills.  You yell out “Garudyne!” and Odin holds out a hand, palm facing the monster.

A ball of pure force gathers in it and with a loud WHOOMPH goes jetting into the monster, smashing it into the ground.  The resulting crater sends up a thick cloud of dust and blocks your vision.  The monster takes advantage of this by leaping towards you, the bottom half of its jaw flailing madly.  Odin intercepted it easily and grabs it in both of its hands, literally squeezing the life out of it.  The monster whimpers in pain, writhing in Odin’s invincible grip.  He neatly tears the beast in two and throws each half aside like they were nothing.  With that out of the way you both turn your attention to the lesser creatures that were standing nearby and watching, now stumbling over each other trying to get away after witnessing this reversal of fortune.

You see Hinako too.  She’s white as a ghost and staring at you wide eyed.  You’ll worry about her later, for now you’ve got some monster to slay.  You walk past her, giving her ass a squeeze as you do and giving her a wink when she turns to look.  You turn your attention back to the weaklings fleeing from you now.  Fools, they had their chance and you make sure that each and every one of these bastards will pay for trying to hurt your Hinako.  You point to them and utter “Megidolan.”  You don’t say it with quite so much enthusiasm, you’re starting to burn out from the exertion but you’ve still got plenty left.  Odin raises his hand to the sky and brings it down like a hammer.  The monsters are immediately flattened by the invisible weight of sheer will alone.  Odin drops to a knee as he feels your exhaustion and begins to dissolve.  Before he completely vanishes, he turns to look at you with two black, empty pits.  You know what he is saying without him having to speak: “don’t call on me again until you’re stronger.”  Then he’s gone and the flame encompassing you finally dissipates.  You’re still a little giddy from the afterglow and you turn to Hinako and ask, “what do you wanna do tomorrow?” then you collapse completely spent physically, mentally, and even spiritually.  Before you black out, you can feel the sun shining on your face and you hear the squeal of tires and some guy yelling at you to get out of the middle of the fuckin’ road.

How do you wake up?
