3 Interlude Peter Parker
Peter woke up in a strange place.
He was lying under a soft white duvet. It was very comfortable for him. The scent of jasmine was in the air. Peter knew because Aunt May had always liked jasmine perfumes. There was a smiling lady in a blue uniform by his bedside. It reminded him a bit of a Star Wars costume, but it was more practical and less glamorous. Where were Sylvie and Mr. Owen? Was it Asgard? Will they see Mr. Loki's mom? And is Mr. Loki here too?Peter hoped Mr. Loki was feeling better now. He really was afraid that Mr. Loki might die.Rather, Peter expected something different of the mythical land of the gods.
Peter looked around. A white room decorated with jasmine with a TV, various toys and a set table. There was plenty of earthly food there. Pizza, ice cream, chicken and chips, fruit bowl.
"Welcome Mister Peter. I am Berissa and I will be your personal carer during your stay at the Hotel Astrella, the best hotel in Xandar," said Ms Berissa.
"What's Xandar?" Peter asked.
"The planet you are currently on. We have a special package for Terra's visitors. A little less used since the break in diplomatic ties between Xadar and Terra, as we call you. Although the correct name would be Midgard, as you belong to the Empire of All-Father Odin Borson. However, despite the breaking of diplomatic ties, we had had enough supplies before this, and Xandar can almost indefinitely store the right food and necessities for our guests. I understand that we don't have the latest entertainment trends and we apologize for that. However, the meal is special prepared. According to our device, your favorite fragrance was jasmine, so they are decoration in your room. Of course, this can be changed if necessary. Next door is a bathroom with delicate products for washing your body type. I am also supposed to serve you as your guide and fulfill all your wishes during your stay. Is the temperature comfortable for you? " said Mrs Berissa.
"I'm on another planet? Me? Like in Star Wars? Yes, the temperature is good. Are you human? Or another species? Where's Sylvie and Mr. Owen?" Peter spoke quickly.
"I'm Xandarian. Quite a stronger genre than yours, despite our similarity. If you want you can watch Star Wars, we imported them before the fatal severity of diplomatic ties in 1995. Until this year, we have every major movie and book and every kind of entertainment. Mrs. Sylvie is still sleeping. and Mr. Owen has just had an audience with Nova Prime, "said Mrs. Berrisa.
"Who is Nova Prime?" Peter asked.
"She's our leader. She rules us and takes care of Xandar," said Mrs. Berrisa.
"I don't want to disturb Sylvie. Can I go outside? I want to see another planet!" Peter asked.
"Mr. Owen asked you to eat when you wake up," replied Mrs. Berissa.
"I don't want to eat. I want to see Xandar. Please, please," Peter pleaded with Mrs. Berissa.
"Of course, but you cannot be alone. You also need permission from at least one of your parents," said Ms Berissa.
"I have no parents. They died when I was 3 years old. Then I was looked after by Aunt May and Uncle Ben, but they also died recently. Sylvie and Mr. Loki are my new family. They adopted me," said Peter.
"Loki? Like Prince Loki Odinson of Asgard, God of Mischief?" Mrs. Berissa asked.
"Yes, Mr. Loki is the God of Mischief. He was showing me his magic. It is really great," said Peter.
Mrs. Berissa was looking at him.
"Our guest is Prince Loki's child. Forgive me, Your Royal Highness. I will deal with a more appropriate protocol immediately," Mrs. Berissa left immediately.
Prince Loki? Yeah! Odin was king! And Mr. Loki was his son! Of course he was the Prince of Asgard. Peter felt really uncomfortable. Not only was he adopted by the God of Mischief and the Goddess of Stories, he was now, in a way, a member of the divine royal family! He, weak Peter Parker.
The same one that was laughed at at school.
Why did they want him? He was nothing special. He had only bad luck in his life that he lost both families.
He was afraid to lose a third.
Gods and the royal family.
How was Peter supposed to fit in with this?
He already loved Sylvie and Mr. Loki.
Mrs. Stella was a little awkward, but she didn't hesitate to defend him.
He still couldn't believe the Hydra still existed and wanted him. Captain America was destroy them. And they lived and wanted him.
Yes, Peter didn't really know Mr. Owen yet, but he looked really nice gentleman.
They cared for him.
And who was he?
The weak child they torment at school.
He had no power.
He wasn't as great as Tony Stark.
He knew he was smarter than the other kids, but that was all. Nothing special at all.
Peter didn't even notice the tears streaming down his cheeks.
He wiped them off quickly.
He didn't want to cry like a baby!
He had to be brave! He was ten years old. He should be stronger.
Peter went to the window and watched this unknown planet.
Before, he had felt so dazzled with this new planet. He wanted to see everything. And now he felt really small.
Who was he in this wonderful universe full of powerful gods?
Weak kid battered in the hallways.
Uncle Ben always told him to tell the teachers, but that was bad advice.
He didn't want to make troubles to someones.
Peter was staring out the window.
Suddenly, Sylvie entered the room.
She was disheveled, as if she had just wake up.Apparently she wanted to say something, but noticed his tears. She immediately ran to him.
"Who hurt you?" she asked. Her eyes seemed to watch his body closely for any injuries.
"Nobody, nobody hurt me," said Peter irritatedly.
"Then why did you cry?" Sylvie asked.
"I ..." Peter lingered. But Sylvie's gaze was unfazed.
"I had a nightmare" he finally lied.
Sylvie snorted.
"You're a terrible liar. I'll find out anyway, so you can tell me," Sylvie said.
Peter sighed.
"Why did you adopt me?" Peter asked.
Sylvie blinked.
"Why is that weird question? Loki, always does it. He sees the pathetic creatures and he adopts them. You at least were a wounded child, so of course he took care of you. I can't understand why he adopted me when I beat him at the first meeting." Sylvie.
"How could you beat Mr. Loki, Sylvie? And are you adopted too?" Peter asked.
"He was a bit annoying and I thought he was going to interfere with my plan. And I still feel guilty about it. He adopted me as his little sister anyway," Sylvie said.
"So we're both adopted by Loki?" Peter asked.
"Yes. I'm a little sister, but I don't know who you are to us," Sylvie said.
They don't know.
Because he is nobody.
Only a weak human child.
He was not a god.
"Peter, why are you crying again?" Sylvie asked, and awkwardly took him in her arms.
He loved them.
However, they were not for him.
They were gods.
So where was he supposed to go?
He had no family.
Hydra was chasing him.
He was on a strange planet.
Weak, weak, weak.
Stupid nerd Parker!
