A/N: Thanks as always to my friend and partner DaltWisney for the script and several reactions.


Thor flipped over a long table in a dining room out of anger. Thor sat on the steps nearby, as Loki stepped out from behind a pillar and approached Thor. "It's unwise to be in my company right now, brother." Thor told Loki as he sat next to him. "This was to be my day of triumph." Thor grumbled.

"It'll come in time." Loki assured his brother.

"So, what, just because the celebration is ruined, Dad doesn't get to be king? Stupid frost giants!" Nora pouted.

"I believe it likely had more to do with his response to the threat, Nora." Pyrrha explained, not even bothering to correct Nora about Thor being her father anymore.

"He certainly wasn't acting like any leader I'd follow." Ren agreed.

Lady Sif in the Warriors Three walked in seeing the toppled table. "What is this?" Volstagg questioned.

"If it's any consolation. I think you're right. About the frost giants, about Laufey, about everything. If they found a way to penetrate Asgard's defenses once, who's to say they won't try again. Next time with an army." Loki whispered to Thor.

"Exactly. If NOTHING else, double your security around your borders. But the best option would be going to Jotunheim and demanding answers." James said.

"Oh, yeah. Great idea, Jimmy. Go to a realm that tolerates you AT BEST, go up in their faces and start demanding answers. That's gonna get you places... Like a grave." Qrow told him.

"And who's to say their borders where this breach is? As I recall, Asgard was shown as an island floating in space. Their borders seem quite solidly defended." Glynda stated.

"Exactly." Thor agreed.

"There's nothing you could do without defying father." Loki told him. Thor looked at him and Loki got one too. "No, no, no, no. I know that look." Loki tried to talk Thor out of what he was planning.

"Oh, no! It's like the look Ruby gets when she's about to do something crazy! Weiss said worriedly.

"Hey! I'm not like that! That's Yang!" Ruby pouted.

Yang gasped and put a hand to her chest in mock offense. "Ruby, how could you!? I'm so offended." She said in a fake offended tone.

"You're just mad because you know its true." Neo teased. She got enough of an idea from Yang in their handful of encounters to know she was impulsive and probably jumped into things pretty often.

"It's the only way to ensure the safety of our borders." Thor declared.

"It's madness." Loki told his brother.

"Madness? What sort of madness?" Volstagg asked.

"Oh, nothing. Just a suicide mission!" Winter snapped.

"To some people, that's a welcome challenge, rather than an aversion." Cinder told the elder Schnee, knowing Tyrian would dive head-first into a suicide mission.

"No one should ever want to go to their death." Velvet said sadly.

"We're going to Jotunnheim." Thor explained.

"What?" Volstagg asked with a slight laugh.

"This isn't like a journey to Earth where you summon a little lightning and thunder and the mortals worship you as a God. This is Jotunnheim." Frandral warned his friend.

"Hey! We're not THAT easy to impress!" Jaune said, offended.

"Maybe once upon a time, but generally not nowadays." Ozpin agreed.

"Wait, he can summon thunder and lightning?!" Nora asked excitedly.

"Yeah. I was debating exactly when to tell you, but since they're saying it here, Thor is the God of Thunder in Norse mythology. With Mjolnir in hand, he can create storms and shoot bolts of lightning." Katana explained, leaving them in awe.

"Okay, I might worship that." Blake admitted.

"My father fought his way into Jotunnheim. Defeated their armies and took their Casket." Thor explained as Loki closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead out of annoyance. "We would just be looking for answers." He told his friends.

"It is forbidden." Sif retaliated.

Thor chuckled. "My friends, have you forgotten all that we have done together? Fandral, Hogun, who led you into the most glorious of battles?" He asked.

"You did." Hogun told him.

"Yeah! Glorious battle!" Nora cheered.

"It's always nice to get the blood flowing with a good fight." Coco agreed.

"Indeed. I'm always prepped for action!" Penny declared.

"Aww, Penny! You found a new catchphrase!" Ruby said happily.

"I merely looked up synonyms for Combat Ready." Penny explained.

"And Volstagg, who brought you the delicacies so succulent you thought you'd died and gone to Valhalla?" Thor questioned again.

Volstagg laughed "You did." He said.

"Yes! And who proved wrong all who scoffed at the idea that a young maiden could be one of the fiercest warriors this realm has ever known?" Thor asked one final time.

"I did." Sif declared.

"Jeez, as if seeing all the girls being better than us wasn't enough." Jaune said to Ren, who tilted his head back and forth in an "I suppose" gesture.

"Aww, yeah! Girl power!" Ruby cheered, bouncing excitedly and shooting her fists into the air, almost punching Cinder in the face.

"Hey, watch it! And knock off the bouncing!" The elder girl snapped.

"S-sorry..." Ruby said, looking down with sad puppy eyes.

Cinder tried to maintain her glare, but simply couldn't and looked away. "W-whatever. It's fine. Just tone it down a bit." She said.

"True, but I supported you, Sif. My friends, we're going to Jotunnheim." Thor told them.


Thor, Loki, Sif and the Warriors Three rode along the Bifrost Bridge on horses, towards the keeper of the Bifrost, Heimdall. He stood there, holding a sword and looking like a rather serious fella.

"He seems quite interesting." Ozpin noted.

"Heimdall. Guardian of the Bifrost and a being able to see anyone in the universe." Katana explained.

"At any time?" Blake asked, a devious thought forming in her head.

"What are you thinking, Blake-y?" Yang asked teasingly.

"Nothing!" Blake answered quickly.

"Leave this to me." Loki told his friends, before turning to Heimdall. "Good Heimdall." He began.

"You're not dressed warmly enough." Heimdall told him.

"So, this place is basically Atlas they're going to, right?" Qrow asked, earning a glare from the Atlesians. Katana simply nodded then.

"In that case, it would certainly be beneficial for them to bring warmer gear." Penny stated.

"If Atlas' heat can kill in mere hours, I fear for what this place holds." Winter said warily.

"I'm sorry?" Loki asked.

"Do you think you can deceive me?" Heimdall demanded.

"You must be mistaken." Loki started again.

"Enough. Heimdall, may we pass?" Thor asked.

"Never has an enemy slipped my watch until this day. I wish to know how that happened." Heimdall explained.

"So, he didn't see the enemy come in, even though he can see everything? How's that work?" Jaune asked.

"Everyone must have some form of blind spot." Ren declared.

"If only Atlas had such a dedicated guard. With only one incident to his name. And he immediately seeks to correct it." Ironwood said.

"Then tell no one where we've gone until we've returned. Understand?" Thor questioned. Thor then walked by Heimdall into the golden sphere behind him, Sif and the Warriors three following behind.

"What happened? Silver tongue turned to lead?" Volstagg taunted Loki.

"Silver tongue?! Gimme!" Neo cried, trying to lunge forward as if she could actually tackle Loki and pull his tongue out.

Cinder sighed at this. "Neo, it's an expression. It means you're good at twisting your words to get other people to listen to you and do as you command. I like to think I'm quite gifted in it." She said proudly, getting Neo to roll her eyes and point a finger at her open mouth in a gagging gesture, to which Yang actually smirk at.

"Yes, Loki is known as the god of Mischief and lies. He's well-known for pulling pranks, causing chaos and lying. And having children that are giant animals." Katana explained.

"WHAT?!" Everyone cried out, shocked by this last fact.

Loki followed after and then everyone stood before the other side of the sphere. Heimdall stood in the middle and placed the sword he was holding into the floor like a key. Lightning flew about the room. The outside layer of the sphere began spinning while the point at the top pointed out away from the kingdom.

"Be warned. I will honor my sworn oath to protect this realm as it's gatekeeper. If your return threatens the safety of Asgard, Bifrost will remain closed. And you'll be left to die in the cold waste of Jotunheim." Heimdall warned them.

"Couldn't you just leave the bridge open for us?" Volstagg asked.

"To leave the bridge open would unleash the full power of the Bifrost and destroy Jotunheim with you upon it." Heimdall explained.

"No thank you!" Nora cried out.

"Why would a bridge every need that much power?!" Velvet asked, horrified.

"Well, they are travelling to different planets. That's something we can't do even with our best Dust, so it probably takes a lot of power." Coco told her teammate.

"Even test launches were unimaginably expensive." Winter groaned.

"I have no plans to die today." Thor declared.

"None do." Heimdall told him.

"Remember that students, even when you think you have a perfect plan, you must be ready for anything." Glynda reminded her students.

"Thank you, Ms. Goodwitch. I will make sure our team takes this lesson to heart." Weiss said, obviously sucking up to the teacher, but there was some seriousness behind it.

"We'll do our best, ma'am." Pyrrha agreed.

Heimdall drove the sword the rest of the way down and just like that, Thor and his allies were on their way, moving at incredible fast speed towards a planet covered in ice.

"That place is kind of creepy." Ruby said, forgetting who she was sitting with and leaning into Cinder a bit. This caught the older girl off-guard, but she didn't stop Ruby. She didn't embrace her, either, though.

"I do have to admit, Atlas and Mantle are far nicer than these places." Weiss said.


They landed and Thor started to look at their surroundings which was mountains, a dark sky filled with no stars and snow as far as the eye could see. "We shouldn't be here." Hogun stated.

"Let's move." Thor said as they began moving forward, a piece of one of the towering structures falling to the ground with a crash.

"Oh, yes. You're already trespassing in a hazardous environment, so you might as well make your presence known." Winter said sarcastically.

"They came for answers, Winter. They might as well get them." Ironwood told her.

There was a very long silence as they all took in the area around them, looking for any sign of a frost giant.

"Where are they?" Sif questioned.

"Hiding, as cowards always do." Thor stated.

They all came to a place, with a seat housing Laufey. "You've come a long way to die, Asgardians." Laufey said.

"Oh... Maybe a bad time for that cowards comment." Velvet said, rubbing her ears nervously.

"Agreed. You'd really think he'd be more respectful, being raised as a prince and all." Pyrrha said.

"Uh, you met Weiss the first few days you guys were here, right?" Coco asked.

"Hey!" Weiss whined.

"I am Thor Odinson." Thor introduced himself.

"We know who you are." Laufey told him.

"How did your people get into Asgard?" Thor demanded.

Laufey finally turned his head to look their way and stared daggers at them. "The house of Odin is full of traitors." He explained.

"So, it seems even gods are not without their traitors." Ozpin said, a bit disappointed.

"But what would they gain from allowing the frost giants into Asgard?" Glynda wondered.

"Do not dishonor my father's name with your lies!" Thor snapped.

Laufey stood up, revealing just how tall he was as more frost giants, emerged from the shadows.

"Your father is a murderer and a thief." Laufey snapped.

"Oh, hi there, Kettle. Name's Pott, have we met?" Qrow asked.

"Yeah, right?! You froze a whole planet and killed a bunch of innocent people!" Ruby snapped.

"And why have you come here? To make peace? You long for battle. You crave it. You're nothing but a boy trying to prove himself a man." Laufey mocked him.

More and more frost giants surrounded the six Asgardians.

"Whoa. That's a lot of frost giants." Jaune said nervously.

"My dad can take 'em! Beat their butts, Dad!" Nora cheered.

"This girls doesn't know how to pick her battles, does she?" Cinder asked, to which Ruby shook her head.

"Well this 'boy' has grown tired of your mockery." Thor threatened as several frost giants formed spikes of ice on their arms.

"Thor, stop and think. Look around you, we're outnumbered." Loki whispered.

"Know your place, brother." Thor warned.

"You know not what your actions would unleash. I do. Go now, while I still allow it." Laufey ordered as he approached them.

"You'd better take it Thor. There's too many." Weiss advised.

"I hate to admit it, but I think I have to agree with Weiss. Team RWBY would have no choice but to back down." Yang admitted.

"We will accept your most gracious offer." Loki said while Thor looked at his brother, bewildered, then turned back to Laufey.

"Come on, brother." Loki told his brother.

Thor turned around to start walking away. "Run back home, little princess." Laufey taunted.

"Damn." Loki cursed.

"Oh no." Ren said in horror, knowing what was about to happen.

"Don't take that from him!" Nora shouted.

Thor got a grin, grasped his hammer and turned, swinging at Laufey, sending the king of the frost giants flying through the air. "Next?" Thor challenged.

"Yeah! Get 'em, Dad!" Nora cheered.

"Those Asgardians better be as good as Katana said." Neo said nervously.

"They're considered to be the most elite of all Asgard's warriors, only weaker than Odin himself. If regular Asgardians are worth 3 of Qrow, then these guys are worth 10 Qrows. And Odin is worth 15." Katana explained.

"Incredible..." Ironwood said in awe. As much as he hates to admit it, Qrow is one of the best Huntsman he's ever seen, likely even above himself, so for these warriors to be worth multiple of either of them was simply unfathomable. A question then came to mind. "So... how do you compare to these heroes, Katana?" He asked.

"Oh, I'm about on Thor's level... Like this, anyway." Katana said, leaving them all to question what she meant by that. [1]

Thor swung his hammer at another giant and several more rushed him, Thor taking them down with Mjolnir. Hogun brought out a mace and began attacking. Sif pulled out a weapon which could be counted as a double edged sword with a handle in the middle. Fandral laughed as he pulled out a sword and joined in. Loki threw a dagger at one of the giant's spiked arms and shattered the ice on it. Volstagg was even shown fighting a giant as well.

"After all the insane amount of guns and technological weapons from Iron Man, it's nice to slow it down and see weapons similar to our own." Weiss stated.

"Yeah. Except Loki throwing some tiny knives. Lame." Yang said.

"I believe the weapon's effectiveness is what's most important, Yang. And clearly, Loki is able to use those throwing knives quite well, able to shatter thick ice in that manner." Penny stated.

"At least make it a challenge for me." Thor boasted.

Laufey turned his head as if giving a command and several frost giants ran off the structure and froze the ground leading to Hogun. A big block of ice came off the ground and shattered upon impact with Hogun. One of the giants growled and Thor growled back in mockery.

"I'm not entirely sure that Nora isn't his daughter anymore." Jaune said.

"There certainly seems to be a resemblance." Pyrrha greed, shocked by how much the Thunder God's actions matched Nora's.

"I'm waiting for a bear to show up and Thor tries to ride it." Blake admitted.

The giant headbutted Thor, but he shook it off and laughed at the giant. The giant then punched Thor, sending him back a few feet. Thor rolled through and stood back on his feet.

"That's more like it." Thor laughed, before he threw Mjolnir at the giant's head, crushing it.

But Mjolnir stopped mid flight and flew back into Thor's grip.

"He can stop it in mid-flight?! How?!" Winter shouted.

"Cause he's SO FREAKING COOL! THAT'S WHY!" Nora cheered again.

"It's magic. Supposedly, the dwarves that forged the hammer used that as their trademark, weapons that can be called to the wielder's hand." Katana explained. "Although, out of all the main weapons we'll see in the MCU, Mjolnir would probably be the easiest to recreate: gravity Dust in the grip, a gravity dust glove and like, 6 slots in the head of the hammer for some lighting dust crystals." She told them.

"I wonder if I could do that with the full Maiden's powers if I ever get it? Or perhaps something even better." Cinder pondered, considering alternatives if she couldn't create weapons that boomerang back to her.

Sif was knocked to the ground but was saved by Hogun a moment later. Loki stood on the cliff's edge as another frost giant roared and charged him.

"Move, Loki!" Ruby cried out fearfully.

"That's the worst possible spot to be in!" Weiss shrieked.

"He must've had a plan before coming to the cliff. It'd be suicide otherwise." Ren noted.

Loki stood there and the giant leapt at him, only to fly through him and off the cliffside. Loki popped out from behind a rock and ended his projection.

"It was a trick!" Ruby said in amazement.

"It's like my semblance!" Neo cheered, bouncing in place, her interest in Loki immediately tripling.

"Only his don't shatter like glass." Cinder noted the small difference.

"Will you quite bouncing on my lap! You're gonna break my leg!" Yang snapped at Neo who gave her puppy dog eyes, easily on par with Ruby's, forcing the brawler to relent.

Sif impaled another giant and another threw smaller spikes of ice her way, using the snow already on the ground. She protected herself with her shield. One of the frost giants grabbed hold of Volstagg's forearm, causing the rotund warrior to scream in pain, before tossing the giant back. He looks at the burn on his arm.

"Don't let them touch you!" He warned the others.

"What just happened?!" Velvet asked, shocked.

"It gave him freezer burn. They're so cold they can burn you." Coco said in shock.

"Heh. Freezerburn." Yang couldn't help but laugh and nudge Weiss, noting the unintentional reference to their team attack.

"It's an amusing coincidence, but this is no situation to joke about. Ice burns are VERY painful." Weiss said, shivering at the memories of her earliest training with Ice Dust, resulting in numerous ice burns, most painfully including one on her butt after a bad misfire.

The fight continued. Loki brought one of the giants to knee as the giant laid his hands on Loki's forearm. But it didn't burn Loki as it did Volstagg. Instead, it turned his skin to the color blue. Loki's eyes widened and he stared at the frost giant before him, who stared back knowingly. Loki stabbed the giant in the chest and tossed him to the ground. Loki stared at his now blue arm, which reverted back to it's white color a second later.

"What? Why didn't it burn him?" Pyrrha wondered.

"Maybe Uncle Loki is just super awesome and knows magic so he can't get frozen or burned by ice!" Nora theorized.

"I don't believe so, Miss Valkyrie. Even he seems genuine confused by this occurrence." Glynda noted.

"It looked like the frost giant knew something... But what?" Jaune questioned.

Fandral laughed as he battled with another giant, but he didn't laugh anymore when the sword was knocked out of his hand and landed in the ground, the blade stuck in the ground. The giant went to attack, but Fandral slid through his legs, pulled the sword out of the ground and sliced the giant's arm off when it turned around, following it by stabbing the giant in the throat. Fandral turned around and was stabbed in the chest by a icy spike, causing him to scream in pain. Loki heard him and threw a dagger at the giant who attacked him.

"Oh, no! Frandral!" Blake cried out.

"Upset because he's the good-looking one?" Coco questioned, Blake blushing and looking away.

"Way to look out for your buddy, Loki!" Ruby cheered.

"Still, one of them is injured. They need to get out of there." Cinder said.

"Agreed. They were already at a disadvantage. With one injured, their odds have dropped astronomically." Ozpin stated.

"Thor!" Sif cried out, but Thor ignored her and continued battling. Hogun and Volstagg slowly pulled Fandral off the spike.

"We must go!" Loki cried out.

"Then go!" Thor ordered.

"I WOULD praise him for staying behind to cover his friend's retreat, but it's clear he's merely engrossed in the battle and doesn't wish to leave, ignoring his friend's condition." Ironwood stated with a glare, beginning to disapprove of the thunderer.

"Exactly. He's the leader of this operation! The safety and welfare of those under his command should be his highest priority!" Winter snapped.

"Not cool, man. You lost a lot of respect right now." Qrow said. Back when team STRQ was together, the condition of his teammates was always first in his mind. Especially when he had to worry about his semblance acting up and possibly causing troubles for them.

Thor threw his hammer and in it's flight, which appeared to be controlled, it took out several frost giants. The anger in Laufey's eyes was apparent as he cracked the ice on a monstrous-looking creature.

"What is that!?" Velvet asked fearfully, practically jumping into Coco's lap, hugging her tightly while shivering.

"Some form of strange Frost Beast." Penny said unsurely, but Katana gave the android girl a thumb's up, confirming she'd correctly identified the creature. [2]

"It's hideous!" Weiss exclaimed.

"It's awesome!" Neo cried excitedly.

"I want one." Cinder said. Salem had given her a Beowulf intelligent enough to act like a normal dog, but she wanted a more impressive pet than that thing. And it still had it's Grimm tendencies to want to bite humans, as several fang indents in Mercury's metal legs and Emerald trying to hang onto their dorm's ceiling light to avoid the creature would attest.

"Run!" Volstagg shouted.

Thor was rushed by more giants and fought them off as the beast encased in ice broke out of it's prison. The monster ran after Thor's fleeing allies while Thor stayed behind and fought off more giants. Thor looked around him and raised his hammer, causing lightning to crack across the snowy sky, then Thor brought the hammer back down, knocking down the giants rushing him and causing a shockwave so great, the ground started to shake and crumble, Reaching out to the monster chasing his friends.

"So awesome!" Nora cheered, standing up, jumping and clapping several times.

"I... honestly can't tell if he's actually trying to help his friends escape while fighting, or if they're just getting lucky." Qrow said, shocked.

"I don't even think Clover's luck is that good." Winter said, amazed.

"Who?" Neo asked.

"Clover Ebi. He's the leader of our ace-ops squad. His semblance is Good Fortune." Ironwood explained.

The monster fell into the ground and Fandral, who was being carried over Volstagg's shoulder, let out a laugh. That did not stop the monster however, as it continued it's chase running underneath them.

"Oh, come on!" Yang complained.

"Persistent." Glynda said.

"They do seem like quite capable guard or attack animals." Ozpin noted. He'd seen Zwei in action on a few missions with Team RWBY and heard MANY good things from Oobleck... Perhaps he should consider letting students bring their pets, providing they prove themselves as useful as the Corgi.

The warriors soon reached the cliffside. "Heimdall, open the bridge!" Volstagg cried out.

The monster's claw grasped the cliff's edge and rose up to face them with hungry eyes. Thor raised his hammer and flew towards the monster at a great speed.

Everyone was shocked at this. "He can fly with that thing!?" Velvet asked in amazement.

"Impossible!" Glynda, Ironwood and Winter all shouted out at once.

"Magic!" Yang and Ruby declared.

"Katana, how exactly is the hammer able to allow Thor to fly?" Penny asked.

"By being really heavy." Katana said. Everyone looked at her in disbelief. "I am NOT kidding. You see that leather wrist strap? He just holds that, spins it as fast as he can and hurls it as hard as he can... just without letting go and he's just along for the ride." She explained.

"So awesome!" Nora cheered.

As the monster opened its mouth, Thor entered through his mouth and made his exited through the back its head. Thor landed before it as it crumbled to the ground in a heap before sliding off the cliff.

"Gross..." Jaune groaned.

"But quite impressive." Ren admitted.

"At least he saved his friends." Pyrrha stated.

Thor and his allies turned back around to see Laufey and his army followed them to the cliff. They all slowly approached before the light of the Bifrost appeared from the sky above and landed between Thor and Laufey. It was Odin, holding his staff in the air on a horse. And eight-legged horse.

"Does that horse have eight legs!?" Coco asked in disbelief.

"It's a spider horse!" Ruby cried out.

"If I WAS still drinking, this would be when I'd have to put down the bottle, because I'd be think had WAY too much." Qrow said.

"That is Sleipnir, Odin's companion and Faithful steed. And, in mythology, another one of Loki's animal children." Katana started, shocking everyone once again. "And, as you can see, he has eight legs, making him the fastest horse in all the Nine Realms. In one legend, I remember a mortal made a deal with the god of death to free his brother from the realm of death if he could get all living beings in the Nine Realms to cry for requesting Odin's permission to use Sleipnir to ride through all the Nine Realms in one day, trying to convince all living creatures to cry for brother. He almost succeeded, but one giant woman refused to cry, so the mission failed. But the takeaway is that Sleipnir can travel through all the realms in one day." She finished explained, shocking everyone once again. [3]

"Father! We'll finish them together!" Thor said with a huge grin on his face.

"Silence!" Odin ordered. The grin quickly left Thor's face.

Laufey got up to meet Odin, face to face. "Allfather. You look weary." Laufey stated.

"So, is Odin dying or something? Thor said he was vulnerable and this guy's saying he looks weary. What's the deal?" Blake asked.

"Well, he's getting up there in years, clearly. That's why he was passing the throne to Thor." Weiss assumed.

"Oh, come on! Grandpa's awesome! He's got a spider horse!" Nora cheered.

"It doesn't change the fact he's clearly on in years, Nora." Ren told her.

"Laufey, end this now." Odin requested.

"Your boy sought this out." Laufey told him.

"You're right. These are the actions of a boy. Treat them as such. You and I can end this here and now, before there's further bloodshed." Odin reasoned with his former foe.

"We are beyond diplomacy now, Allfather. He'll get what he came for. War and death." Laufey explained.

"I mean, what do you expect? Look at his eyes! That's more evil than Cinder!" Neo declared.

Yang laughed at this. "Nice!" She said, holding up her hand, Neo high-fiving her, only for the two to remember they were enemies and look away from each other.

Cinder glared at the former mute, but looked back. "I have to admit, he might be scarier than Salem. At least, based on appearance." Cinder admitted.

"So be it." Odin declared.

Laufey tried to stab Odin, but he raised his staff and the light of the Bifrost blew Laufey back, pulling Odin and the other Asgardians back into their home. While Laufey looked on dangerously.


"Why did you bring us back?" Thor questioned.

"Do you realize what you've done? What you've started?" Odin demanded.

"I was protecting my home." Thor insisted.

"I mean, you can't blame him for that, at least." Ruby said.

"But you can blame him for picking a fight and starting a war." Coco stated.

"Well, Laufey started it, but you need a reason WAY better than name-calling to hit a king with a hammer." Velvet added.

"You cannot even protect your friends! How can you hope to protect the kingdom?" Odin snapped as he withdrew the sword and threw it back to Heimdall, before directing Thor's friends. "Get him to the healing room! Now!" He ordered.

"They have a room that heals people?!" Yang asked, amazed.

"We've never seen it in action, so we don't know exactly how it works, but they're magic, so probably." Katana said.

"Incredible. Imagine what we could do with such a room on Remnant!" Weiss said.

"There won't be a kingdom to protect if we're afraid to act. The Jotunns must learn to fear me just as they once feared you." Thor explained.

"That sounds too dangerously close to Cinder's way of thinking." Ozpin said.

"Is it truly so wrong to be feared?" Cinder wondered.

"More often than not, Miss Fall, when humans fear something, they seek to destroy it." Glynda told her.

"That's pride and vanity talking, not leadership. You've forgotten everything I taught you about a warrior's patience." Odin told his son.

"While you wait and be patient, the nine realms laugh at us. The old ways are done. You'd stand giving speeches while Asgard falls." Thor countered.

"Well, this sounds strangely familiar." Qrow said, looking between Ozpin and Ironwood as the two mentioned men looked away from each other.

"More action could've been taken, but Thor took it entirely too far." Jaune noted.

"And Odin was wise to look to alternatives to war, but could've been more active in discovering where the frost giants entered." Ren added.

"It's an incredibly delicate situation. There likely is no perfect solution." Pyrrha said.

"You are a vain, greedy, cruel boy!" Odin snapped.

"And you are an old man and a fool!" Thor shouted back.

"Agreed with Odin entirely. Thor is too selfish for his own good!" Winter declared.

"Congratulations, Thor. You've officially forced your kingdom into another war!" Weiss agreed with her sister and snapped at Thor.

Blake's ears fell flat on her head at Thor's words because it sounded like something similar to what she said to her father when she took Adam's side and followed Sienna Khan's White Fang. "No... They forgave me..." She told herself, remembering how Katana told them that Blake's parents forgave her and even helped her reclaim the White Fang for Adam.

Odin fell silent and looked down at the floor. "Yes… I was a fool… to think you were ready." He said quietly.

"Father…" Loki tried to reason with his father, but Odin raised his arm out towards Loki and growled loudly.

"Hey, Grandpa! Don't be mean to Uncle Loki!" Nora pouted.

"That hardly seemed called for." Penny stated.

"It certainly put him in his place, though." Ironwood noted.

"Apparently, the actor just completely made that up on the spot." Katana told them.

"Thor Odinson, you have betrayed the express command of your king. Through your arrogance and stupidity, you've opened these peaceful realms and innocent lives to the horror and desolation of war!" Odin declared, although his voice was breaking as he did so.

Odin placed his staff into the Bifrost keyhole where the sword would normally go. He walked up to Thor and began ripping off pieces of Thor's armor. "You are unworthy of these realms!" He continued and ripped Thor's cape off. "You're unworthy of your title! You're unworthy, of the loved ones you have betrayed." Odin declared.

"What's with those pieces of armor he broke off?" Neo asked.

"They were Thor's symbol of royal status." The ice demon elaborated once more.

"So, he's stripping Thor of his royal status." Blake realized.

"And, from the sound of it, much more." Ozpin stated.

Odin walked back to the center as Thor stared at his father, not quite sure how to react. "I now take from you your power!" He announced. Suddenly, Mjolnir flew out of Thor's hands and into Odin's. "In the name of my father and his father before, I Odin Allfather, cast you out!" He declared one final time, before power released from Mjolnir and pushed Thor through Bifrost and took off his armor in the process.

"Dad, no!" Nora cried.

"That may have been an extreme punishment, but Thor's crimes were extreme." Pyrrha noted.

"Exactly, Miss Nikos. Actions have consequences. And the more sever the crime, the more severe the punishment." Glynda said, glaring at the two villains in their midst. Cinder and Neo gulped at this, wondering what exactly the assistant Headmistress had planned for them.

Odin raised the hammer close to his lips. "Whoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor." He whispered this declaration, before he threw Mjolnir through the Bifrost with Thor.


"Wait, so now the hammer's just up for grabs wherever it lands?" Ruby asked.

"And if you can lift it, you become as powerful as Thor?" Jaune questioned as well.

"If you're worthy, yes. And ultimately, that test of worth comes down to the oaths Thor swore to when he was being made king: guard the nine realms, preserve the peace and cast aside all selfish ambitions for the good of the realm." Katana explained.

"Well, the first two are easy, but what does it mean to cast off all selfish ambition?" Yang asked.

"It means 'don't be a selfish jerk, dummy'!" Neo said as if it was obvious, Yang growling a bit.

"Actually, that about sums it up." Katana admitted.

"So, are any of us worthy?" Blake asked.

"I certainly know I'm worthy. I give my absolute all to keep the peace and protect the people." Weiss praised herself.

"But it doesn't seem as though you're able to cast off all selfish desires." Penny stated.

"What?!" Weiss demanded.

"Let's come back to this later! More movie now!" Katana declared, ending the argument and continuing the movie.


A/N: Another chapter done! I hope you all enjoyed this! Let me know what you think in the reviews!

[1] Let me know if you want to hear more about Katana's abilities and such. If so, I'll add a short little omake or something, but I don't want to force it into the story if you all don't want to hear about it.

[2] Yes, according to the MCU wiki, the creature was actually called a Frost Beast.

[3] I'm sorry if I got the legend wrong! I used to have a book about monsters from books, movies, plays and legends with Sleipnir and this story in it, but I don't have that book anymore and I couldn't find the story anywhere with a quick search! I tried! Please don't flame me!

But also, having Nora constantly claiming Thor is her dad got me thinking and I declare a new challenge! PLEASE someone make a story where Nora is actually Thor's daughter in the MCU! PLEASE!

Or, if you're not up for that, my old challenges still stand: having RWBY react to the other movies, like the Fantastic 4 movies, Blade Trilogy or X-Men movies. Let's see what you can do!
