“ Hey Lin?” I could vaguely hear a male voice said.

“What Dallas?” A voice I assumed to be Lin replied. Lin sounds like they could be either male or female.

“ Look.” Dallas said pointing at the unconscious male he had almost “accidentally” shoved Lin onto.

“ Well don't just stand there like a dumb ass help me bring him to Our house!” Lin said .

“ Shouldn't we bring him to a hospital instead?” Dallas asked.

“ …. Touchè.” Lin replied.

As Lin and Dallas dragged the mysterious man to a car painted in the pansexual pride flag colors Dallas accidentally dropped the mysterious man.

After a few failed attempts they managed to get the unconscious man into the car.

"Dallas and Lin managed to get the man into the car and quickly sped off to their home. As they arrived, they carried the man into the house and laid him down in the living room. They both looked down at the sleeping man, their curiosity getting the best of them.

"Who is he?" Dallas asked. "No idea", Lin replied.

"Do you think he'll wake up?" Dallas asked timidly.

"Only one way to find out.” Lin replied.

Lin raised their hand Dallas only realized what was about to happen but it was to late.

“Lin don't!” Dallas exclaimed reaching his hand on to try and block the smacked however it was to late as Lin's hand came down on the unconscious man's cheek.

However that didn't wake Casperon up only made him stir slightly.

“Dear Zeus he's a deep sleeper.” Lin muttered under their breath.

Chapter 1 the arena

Everyone wants a happily ever after the kind that you see in fairy-tales and fiction unfortunately that's not always the case. The bright lights of the arena and the cheering of a large crowd as a white man around 6’0 with curly brown hair and piercing brown eyes to match. Wearing nothing but the gladiator armor on his body and the helmet in his hands. In his left hand his sword in his right hand his shield. “ Casperon Elison we shall see where you're Norse gods are now.” A loud voice boomed . The latch to the cage opens and large lions appear looking malnourished and I could have sworn one of the lions licked it's lips shit it's coming right at me. The one on the left shock it's mighty mane it's beady black eyes matched it's mane. The one on the right didn't have a mane it was a female lion.

The one on the left lunged at me claws first. Lucky for me the armor protected me well at least as well as it could. Somehow I managed to puncture the might beasts snout with the sword as I pulled my sword out blood splattered and the male lion collapsed no longer breathing. I felt relieved until I felt claws dig into the back of my legs just below my knees. “Oh Odin…. I was so busy with the male lion I completely forgot about the other one.” I thought to myself and I fell to the ground the world spinning. The last thing I remember is hearing a voice before being dragged away. “Is it alive?” A male voice asked kicking my side and I groaned. I'm not going to say how bad the claw marks are but let's just say I surprisingly haven't bled to death …..yet.

The male laughed and walked away. “ Allfather Odin if you can hear me please…. Please I don't want to die.” I muttered hoping Odin could hear me and take pity on me. Suddenly there was a flash and a man with neatly trimmed black hair , mustache and beard appeared in front of me. He wore an eye patch over his left eye or at least where his eye should be. This couldn't be Odin…..could it? Odin was supposed to be much older and he stood a man looking around 39-40 “ I can definitely look much old if that's what you prefer.” The man said. “ No thank you. I like how you look right now. ” I replied. “ Now for the reason I summoned you here or rather you summoned me.” Odin said. “ Wait you're not going to make me give you one of my eyes are you?” I asked and put my hand over my right eye.

Surprisingly he wasn't mad like I thought he would be instead he chuckled…. I wasn't sure if that was good or bad. “ No. You see mortals have gotten to greedy….. and somehow gotten a hold of my eye and have been using it for power.” Odin said. “Ok?” I asked. Odin muttered something and my clothes changed from Greek gladiator to more Norse clothes more viking like clothes. Before I could open my mouth there was a light and everything went blank.

“ Ouch Dallas don't shove me!”

“Sorry Lynx …I mean Lin.”

Here's a part of a chapter I'm writing and thought I might share it here

Trigger warnings death and goreish and blood

Everyone wants a happily ever after the kind that you see in fairy-tales and fiction unfortunately that's not always the case. The bright lights of the arena and the cheering of a large crowd as a white man around 6’0 with curly brown hair and piercing brown eyes to match. Wearing nothing but the gladiator armor on his body and the helmet in his hands. In his left hand his sword in his right hand his shield. “ Casperon Elison we shall see where you're Norse gods are now.” A loud voice boomed . The latch to the cage opens and large lions appear looking malnourished and I could have sworn one of the lions licked it's lips oh thor it's coming right at me. The one on the left shock it's mighty mane it's beady black eyes matched it's mane. The one on the right didn't have a mane it was a female lion.
