Thor

I am flying toward San Diego when I hear the sound of air brakes. Weird, usually trucks do not stop out in front of my house. So I look outside and see firemen grabbing hoses and jumping over my fence. I grab a fire extinguisher and at the same time hear the all too familiar whoosh and the orange glow reflecting off the hallway. Fight's On!!!

I take off running, forgetting the floor is clean and socks are on, failing to make the turn and bounce off the wall; and lets just say even though I'm single, I'm grateful that I still put the toilet lid down. A quick recovery and we're off again. Thor is now on the run. Grab another fire extinguisher and decide to slide across the coffee table, much like a kid sliding down a hill with a skate board, once again no drag issues (read no stopping abilities) as I slam into my brick fireplace. Only thing that had give was a couple of cracking sounds from various parts of my body. I shake it all off, grab fire extinguisher #3. Now I'm mad. I see the door open out of the corner of my eye (thought I locked it) and I'm full throttle into the kitchen after Thor. Thor takes a right and I don't think anybody saw what happened next, coming.

You see, I have a portable dishwasher, which was in use upon impact. I nailed it hard, about the same time 2000 GPM of water started its path in my direction. No one had a chance. The dishwasher took off flying, yanked the hose from the faucet, partially, sending additional water straight up, soaking Thor. The dishwasher stopped just as the cord was severed. I dove over the dishwasher, with the help of the 2000 GPM water stream now fully engulfing my entire body. I landed under the dining room table with the dishwasher slammed up against the table protecting me from the stream that was quickly engulfing my entire house.

It all stopped. I push the dishwasher away and there was Thor, floating like a stuck piece of lighting. Nice purple glow. He had somehow become entangled in the remains of the power cord. I heard the familiar "click" as the circuit breaker did its thing. Thor floated away, twitching. The Fire Chief grabbed his men, hose and departed out the front door.

I opened the back door so the water would drain, I changed into some dry clothes and finished my flight into San Diego.
