Thunder from the North

It was a dark night as a thunderstorm raged. On a mountain top three griffons stood. One was old, and had but one eye. The other had red feathers, and his fur was yellow. Around his neck hung a large stone hammer on a chain. The third griffon was very lean and had green feathers and black fur. They were not normal griffons, they were older than most would expect. They were gods. The one with the hammer, was Thor the God of Thunder, the lean one was Loki the God of Mischief, and the oldest one was Odin the Allfather and king of Asgard.

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

"And you are an old tiercel and a fool!" Yelled back Thor, son of Odin and heir to Asgard's throne.

"Yes, I was a fool. I was a fool to think you were ready." Odin agreed, saddened that things had come to this.

"Father..." Began Loki, second son of Odin, in defense of his brother only to be silenced as the one eyed griffon snapped at him.

"Thor Odinson... You have betrayed the express command of your king." Odin began, his voice wavering.

"Through your arrogance and stupidity, you have opened these peaceful realms and innocent lives to the horror of war!"

Odin continued as he opened a portal with a wave of his paw and moved to Thor, glaring at his son as his anger took hold.

"You are unworthy of this realm, unworthy of your title, you're unworthy!" Odin yelled as Thor backed up, getting closer and closer to the portal his father had opened.

"I now take from you, your power!" Odin barked as the hammer around Thor's neck lifted up from him and flew to Odin's waiting paw.

"In the name of my father and of his father before. I CAST YOU OUT" Odin roared as he let loose a blast of magical energy from his paw and pushed Thor through the portal.

Odin then looked at the hammer in his claw. He held it close to his beak as he said in a hushed tone,

"Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor."

It was nighttime in Canterlot as one Princess Luna walked through the grounds of the castle. She was looking for something interesting to do, being a bit of a night owl as was expected of a Princess of the Night, but for some reason she had not been able to find much to alleviate her boredom.

However soon the sound of thunder began to erupt from the skies as dark clouds began to form and lightning filled the skies.

"Odd, we were not aware there was to be a thunderstorm this night." Luna thought aloud as she witnessed the spectacle outside.

A portal opened in the clouds and spat out Thor who fell to the ground, the impact harming the earth itself more than Thor, with a thud as the griffon got up.

"Damn." Thor groaned in aggravation as he rose to his feet. Throwing his head up to the sky, the clouds quickly disappearing, Thor searched for constellations he recognized in an effort to learn which realm he was on.

"Odin! Heimdall! I know thou can hear me! BRINGEST ME BACK TO HOME!" Thor shouted angrily at the sky.

When nothing happened Thor shouted again and again. Suddenly he felt a presence behind him. The thunderer looked to see a dark blue alicorn with a starry mane and tail, looking at him curiously.

"We must say, thou art the first one we hath heard to speak the way we do in the modern world." Luna said as she turned her head slightly to the side, trying to figure out why a griffon was in the middle of the palace grounds. Thor, letting go of his anger for the moment to introduce himself, replied,

"Good evening to thee milady. I am Thor, God of Thunder, he who commands the thunder and the lightning."

Luna laughed at the griffon's claim. She and Celestia had been called goddesses, but had never thought of themselves as such, so to hear this stranger claim to be a deity was most humorous to the Princess of the Night.

"Thou darest to laugh at Thor?! I shall prove to thee my claim!" Thor proclaimed. He reached up to his neck to grab his hammer, but then remembered that his father had taken it.

"And how dost thou intend to provide proof to thine claim?"  Luna asked, finding this griffon to be most entertaining.  Before anymore could be said, a portal formed in the night sky and released something that burned across the starry sky like a meteor. It crash landed near the Princess and the Asgardian. The two ran over to inspect the crash site and found a stone sledgehammer sitting in the middle of the crater.

"Mjolnir?" Thor gasped before rushing down into the hole to retrieve his hammer. At this point Celestia arrived, having been awoken by the commotion.

"What is going on here?" The Princess of the Sun asked in a tired voice, yawning slightly.

"Oh just a lost griffon, claiming himself to be a god." Luna said as she watched said griffon try to lift the hammer from ground, but found doing so very difficult. After a good minute or so of trying, he fell to the ground, despair evident on his face. Luna flew down and eyed the hammer. It didn't seem to be that heavy, possibly weighing at least fifty pounds at the most and Thor was clearly a well muscled griffon. It didn't make sense to Luna, who tried to lift it with her magic, but try as she might failed to do so.

Celestia walked down about to ask Thor what he was doing in her garden, but seeing Luna unable to lift a simple hammer had her curious. The Sun Princess tried to lift the hammer as well, but had the same luck as her sister.  The sisters looked to Thor, who was still staring at the hammer in front of him. Celestia cleared her throat and asked,

"Who are you?"

Thor didn't respond, he just looked at the hammer in front of him with what seemed to be a deep longing. This was not lost on Celestia who then said,

"Is this hammer important? I sense a great magic emanating from it." At this the griffon replied,

"It is Mjolnir." This wasn't very helpful as Celestia just decided to ask the most pressing question.

"Why are you here?"  The white alicorn asked. Thor stayed silent for a good while, the Princesses allowing him time to get his thoughts together.

"I am banished." He finally said. The Sisters of the Day and the Night shared a look before Luna asked,

"From where were thou banished?" Thor's reply was one that shocked the sisters greatly.

"Asgard."
