What welcomed her was the unpleasant sight of two dead bodies, a man and a woman. "What are you doing in a place like this?" She said to a boy that stood atop the bodies. "You shouldn't be holding something like that, boy."She pointed at the knife he was holding. Seeing that it was covered with blood, it didn't take much for her to realize that the boy standing in front of her had just killed those two people. "Are they your parents?" The boy shakes his head. He was hesitant to speak up at first until he saw the radiant smile on the woman's face. There was no malice on sight, he felt like he could trust her."Th-they kidnapped me." "I see.

Clank!Boom! Crackle! Mjolnir, the weapon of the Norse god of thunder. Thunderbolt, the weapon of the Greek god of thunder. These two weapons from different mythologies clashed. "Thunder Mash!"

"Are you sure he's not dead?" "Let's hope he's not dead..." Ace walked over to face Reed.
