*THIS STORY HAS BEEN ENTERED IN THE 2021 WATTY AWARDS!*
Soulmates... Everyone has one. Whether you feel the connection by touching them, by seeing them, or having the same birth mark as your soulmate. . The connection goes as far as physically, ment...
Zariah looks around as she hears arguing and fighting among the fighters, she materializes her sword in hand as she made her way to the main area of the fighting. She noticed the new comer, almost throwing a tantrum as she made her way closer, his back to her, she moved her sword to the side of his throat "I highly recommend you to calm down and prepare for your fight contender." The blonde man froze as he turned around slowly, her eyes widen as well as his as there was a trance of remembrance of them. "Thor..." She was in disbelief he was alive, he looked different. His beautiful long blonde hair cut down to short, his face with paint on it.
Thor couldn't help but laugh as he reached for her in a embrace, picking her up and laughing "Oh my Zari! You're alive!" he put her back down, she looked different to him. She wore dark clothes, her hair not flowing freely like usual; it was half way up on the top and braided, like a warrior would have. "You look different..." He said laughing a bit. "I cannot believe you are alive Thor. How is everyone? I miss them" she said as a tear fell down her face.
He couldn't help but smile at her, this goddess was a light in his life, a sister, his best friend in a way; it worried him when she disappeared. "Oh, my dear sister, I was so worried. Everyone is okay. After Ultron, a lot of them went separate ways sadly but they are safe." He replied as she just simply nodded.
"Now before you cause any more issues, you have to get ready to fight sadly. I have to tell you something, Loki is alive and he is here." She said, waiting for him to get upset but he smiled a little "I know... I saw him when they decided to cut my hair." She looked at him in shock and nodded "It does look good. But you must go, don't make it difficult. I don't want to have to hurt you." She laughed a bit.
Before Zariah could tell him who he was fighting, he was pulled through the doors "Thor... Just... be safe..." Thor simply smiles and nods as he made his way into the contender stadium. Val comes up behind her "Hey thanks for that... didn't know you knew him too." Zariah turns to look at her "Yea from Asgard, he's like a brother to me and the other is the soulmate I told you about." Val stops a moment with a serious look "Are you kidding me?" the goddess just nods at her "Yep, the Grandmaster's guest is my soulmate who I thought died." She said as she sighed sadly.
*Time Skip to VIP Box*
Hundreds of thousands of people are packed into the stadium seats, cheering, roaring and ready to watch the fight. Dozens of starships are parked above the arena to watch the spectacle. Zariah was in the VIP box standing on the right side of the Grandmaster's seat, Loki was lounged in the suite, taking wagers on the fight card. Zariah was annoyed at the fact of him enjoying himself way too much. She was dressed in her normal armor; more because the Hulk needs calming after his fights, he's typically still rowdy and she can't do her job in a dress.
The Grandmaster himself, walks out into the center of the arena as suddenly a projection of himself going over 60 ft. tall to address the audience;
"Wow! Look at all of you. What a show, WHAT A NIGHT! Who's having fun? Please, I'm your host. Big round of applause for all of our undercard competitors – who died so gruesomely. Good sports. What a show! What a night! This is what you've come for and so have I."
A huge round of applause roars through the crowds, the goddess rolls her eyes a bit; she always hated his speeches. She stood there as he continued, she wanted nothing more than to leave.
"And now, without further ado – It's time for the main event! Making his first appearance, though he looks promising, got a couple tricks up his sleeve. I'll say no more, see what you think. Ladies and gentlemen – I give you – Lord of Thunder!"

As he finished, Thor walks into the arena in his armor with two swords on his back, a mace and a spiked shield in his hands, "Watch out for his fingers, they make sparks." The Grandmaster chimes in. Thor looks up at the screaming audience and then puts on his helmet. A close variation of his winged helm he used to wear on Asgard. He was ready. Zariah watched on in worry as she still stood at attention in her spot not moving. Loki looks to her as he spoke to her in hush tones "Does he know?" She looked at him with a slight scowl on her face but shook her head "I didn't get a chance to..."
The Grandmaster spoke once again "Okay, this is it. Let's get ready to welcome this guy. Here he comes. He is a creature. What can we say about him? Well, he's very unique. There's none like him. I feel a special connection with him." The goddess rolled her eyes as she watched the floor lowered a bit below Thor's feet and the opposing door across the arena opens. She can hear the crowd in anticipation as the lights turned brighter for Thor's opponent.
"He's undefeated. HE'S THE REIGNING. HE'S THE DEFENDING. Ladies' and gentleman. I give you –" as the Grandmaster finishes, a loud crash sounded through the stadium as bursting through the door, Hulk came through wearing an armored shoulder guard and a spartan helmet. He carries a Warhammer in one hand and a battle axe in the other. Hulk pounded on his chest and roars, energizing an already frenzied crowd.
The sight of Hulk, makes Thor's drop to his sides along with his jaw dropping as he laughs his ass off and screams "YESSSSSSSS!!!" Zariah in the VIP box couldn't help but giggle slightly at Thor's demeanor, she knew Thor thought of Banner/Hulk as his friend. Thor looked the VIP box "Hey! We know each other. He's a friend from work!" He turned to Hulk "Where have you been? Everybody thought you were dead. You and Zariah. We've been worried honestly." He turns back to the VIP box addressing Zariah and Loki "Loki! Zari! Look who it is!" Loki covers his face with his hand in embarrassment as Zariah just laughs.
