Words: 4002 ****** Alex Fierro x Magnus Chase ****** by Lavender_Lady ***** Chapter 1 ***** I've never actually read or seen a work that fulfilled my desires for ~FierroChase~, so I made one myself! The first chapter to this should be up soon, I just have to finish some of the scenes. Just a disclaimer, this work will have plot in it along with smut, so while some chapters won't have it, there definitely will be in others. ;)) Enjoy! ***** Chapter 2 ***** Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes It was time for the wargames. As per usual, the battlefield was already thoroughly littered with bodies from the einherjar who’d died in the last five minutes. Magnus, however, was surprisingly not among these bodies, he was still fighting for his life (though, that doesn’t sound as badass when you’re someone who can be revived in a matter of hours after death). He slashed through legions of burly warriors with Sumarbrander the talking sword, who occasionally made comments along the lines of "Oh yeah! You can’t handle the Jack" and "You mess with the thunder, you get the lightning!" Magnus didn’t understand what the latter meant exactly but he didn’t question what his weapon said. Magnus spotted Mallory Keen and Halfborn Gunderson from across the field, running over to aid them in fighting some especially burly woman. As Halfborn swung his axe wildly at the woman, Mallory was attempting to get behind her to find a chink in her armor. Suddenly the woman turned herself so that Mallory, who at this point was climbing on her back, was directly in Halfborn's axe’s path. With one swing, the redhead was on the ground, bleeding out with an axe lodged in her chest. Before she left the living world, Mallory sputtered three words, “Are… you… serious?!” Her head fell backward and she died with a sharp intake of breath. Magnus couldn’t imagine how much trouble Halfborn was in for when the girl revived. Apparently the big guy was having the same thoughts, as he stood frozen over Mallory’s body. “Oh shi-” he started, cut off as his head was chopped cleanly from his shoulders by the woman he’d temporarily forgot about. Magnus sighed, not excited for the yelling that would ensue between the two later that night. But for now he pushed that thought away and focused on his opponent. She stood at a good seven feet tall and was rippling with muscles. She could easily break him in half if she’d wanted to, but she seemed to be content with her silver broadsword. She turned her attention to Magnus with a psychotic look in her eyes, and charged. Magnus acted quickly, a skill he’d developed in his time in Valhalla, leaping out of her way. As she stomped past him, he whipped around and stabbed Jack into her uncovered calf, provoking a loud howl. Swinging back around, the woman put her sword to use, slashing back and forth as Magnus as he stumbled back and away. Taking this weakness, the woman thrust her sword toward Magnus’s abdomen, which he instinctively blocked with his own blade. Woah, she’s a feisty one! hummed Jack, helping Magnus push the woman off. “Yeah, I don’t know how I’ll land any blows when she keeps coming at me like tha-” What? No I was talking about the babe. You think she’ll talk to me even after we beat up her wielder? Magnus rolled his eyes. Of course Jack would be thinking about hooking up with some broadsword while in the middle of a battle. Ignoring his comments, Magnus ran to the woman, who was momentarily distracted by another opponent. Cutting through the other guy’s midsection, she took a brief moment to admire her work. Magnus used this to his advantage, sweeping Jack under her feet, knocking her down. She fell with a loud thump and lied there for a few seconds. In this time, Magnus lifted up the armor near her neck and slashed through her throat, killing her instantly. Magnus breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately focused himself again, looking around for any familiar faces. To his surprise, he didn’t see TJ, who’d normally still be fighting. Instead, a figure clothed in green and pink caught his eye. Alex was wearing her usual green and pink sweater vest and skinny jeans, using her garrote to slice through her enemies. Although she was in the midst of killing several people, she looked unnervingly peaceful, her expression barely changing as she was splattered with the blood of somebody who just had both their legs cut off. She moved with fluidity and ease, almost like a dancer performing on center stage. Magnus stood there, gaping like an idiot until he was spotted by her. He gave her a crooked smile, trying to appear as if he hadn’t just been staring at her. She gave a grin back, though it quickly changed into a look of surprise. Magnus didn’t understand why until he felt the dagger being stabbed through his back. He looked down at the wound, then back at Alex. He gave a shrug and collapsed. Before he died, he could’ve sworn he heard the sweet sound of laughter from the mouth of Alex Fierro. ~ ~ ~ Magnus woke from a strangely uneventful nap hours later. Jack had returned to his pendant form around his neck, softly humming to himself. Magnus sat up groggily, holding his stomach, apparently the pains from hours before weren’t completely gone. Swinging his legs over the side of the bed, he stood up and stretched. Realizing the shirt he was currently wearing was soaked in blood, he took it off, flinging it across the room to some corner. He shed his dirty pants next and tossed them away with the shirt. Stretching again, he looked up and saw a person leaning against his tree. Spotting the dark green hair and vibrant clothes, Magnus yelped, “Alex!” She lazily turned around and said “Oh hey Magnus- woah dude what the hell?!” He darted across the room in search of his clothes, but quickly realized there was no way he’d be able to stomach putting on bloody garments. He stumbled around for a couple seconds before leaping to his bed and covering himself. “What are you doing here?” He demanded, his face reddening. “I just came to make sure you, uh…” she paused, seemingly distracted by Magnus’s chest. This made Magnus turn a bright crimson, but he didn’t cover up any more. “Alex, uh, sorry about that,” Magnus muttered, balling the sheets up in his fists. “No, no, uh… it was my fault, I shouldn’t really be here,” Alex turned to leave. “Wait! No, it’s fine, please stay,” he insisted, not wanted to be without her - no wait- his company. “Oh, uh, okay,” Alex said, walking over to the bed and sitting down. It was silent for a minute, then Alex spoke, “Um, by the way I’m a-” “Boy? Yeah, I know,” Magnus interrupted. Alex looked amused, he always seemed to enjoy it when I could tell his gender without him telling me. “So anyway,” Magnus said after a few moments of silence, “Did I miss dinner? How long did it take for me to revive?” “Oh, only around four hours. You didn’t miss dinner, it’s in about a half an hour.” “Okay,” he breathed a sigh of relief and Alex laughed. “You were really that stressed about missing dinner?” he asked, giggling. “Alex, dinner is an important part of wrapping up the day, well that and I’m never missing another meal again if one is available.” A look of understanding crossed his face, he was also once on the streets of Boston as Magnus had. He knew what it was like to go without food for days at a time. Magnus liked talking with Alex, he always seemed to have the ability to connect with Magnus in some way or another. And while Magnus couldn’t always grasp the concepts of Alex’s gender and his home life, he knew that he could always be there for Alex to come talk to. Alex subtly moved closer, not wanted Magnus to notice, but he did anyway and didn’t mind one bit. “You were asleep for most of it, but Mallory and Halfborn were going at it earlier,” he said. “Really? I’m surprised it didn’t wake me up. Aw, that’s too bad, I kinda wanted to witness it,” Magnus sighed. “Well, they went into Halfborn's room to hash it out in ‘private’,” he air quoted with his fingers. “But, they’re still yelling pretty loud. Come here.” Alex gestured his hand to follow, and together they walked to the door and knelt down. He pressed his ear to the wood and waved for Magnus to do the same. He did, and heard with almost perfect clarity their shouts and curses. “How is it we can’t hear this from over there?” Magnus asked, referring to his bed. “Well, I’m no Valhalla expert but I assume that the rooms are for the most part soundproof, but since they’re right across the hall, we can hear them? Don’t quote me on that, though,” Alex replied, getting a chuckle from Magnus. They listened for a couple minutes, not getting much more than several insults being thrown back and forth and strings of horrific curses in multiple languages. Eventually Alex pulled away from the door, facing Magnus as he did the same. “I don’t understand why she’s so mad, Halfborn accidentally kills her every other week!” Alex huffed. “Well, I think that’s just their relationship, they fight loudly for awhile-” “And then have sex for awhile,” Alex finished. Both Alex and Magnus went pink, laughing awkwardly. “Yeah, I guess that’s not for everyone,” Magnus broke the laughter, though, he sensed a strange heat coming from Alex. Suddenly he realized he still only had his underwear on, but he tried to hide his reddening cheeks. “Really? Because if you haven’t noticed, that’s exactly how I picture relationships,” Alex countered, leaning in. “Is that so? Well, mine’s a bit different, you see, I tend to gravitate to people like…” he trailed off, his eyes drifting to Alex’s lips. He unconsciously moved forward, almost closing the space between them. “Like?” Alex prodded, speaking in a low tone. Magnus responded by kissing him, and although Alex was expecting it, but it took a second for him to return the kiss. In an instant, Alex was sitting on Magnus’s lap, holding the blond’s face in his hands. Wrapping his arms around Alex, Magnus deepened the kiss, opening his mouth to let the smaller boy explore his mouth with his tongue. A thousands thoughts were trying to grab Magnus’s attention at once, but all he could think about was the boy he was holding in his lap and that boy’s soft lips. Alex’s small whimpers and heavy breathing were music to Magnus’s ears, echoing throughout the room. Magnus pulled away from Alex and grunted, “Bed.” He helped Alex up from the floor and led him across the room, laying down and pulling Alex onto him. They resumed kissing as Magnus ran his fingers through Alex’s green hair and Alex held Magnus’s face in his hands. Magnus began to lift up Alex’s shirt, he brought his arms above his hands to help get it off. Magnus kissed down his body, leaving a lingering tingly sensation all over Alex. He moaned again when Magnus hooked his fingers through the belt loops of his pants and pulled down. Magnus hesitated for a moment before kissing Alex’s boner through his underwear, wetting the fabric. Alex’s dick twitched when he felt the warmth of Magnus’s mouth, making him struggle to keep his hips from bucking up. “Magnus!” he whined. “Please, I need your mouth!” “Where do you want it, baby?” Magnus purred in a low voice. “My cock! Please, Maggie!” Alex shrieked, finally letting his hips thrust up to Magnus’s face. Magnus complied, lowering the waistband of Alex’s underwear to reveal his cock and balls. Alex let out a high pitched whine as he felt the cold air against his sensitive cockhead. Magnus touched his lips to the tip of Alex’s dick when the door opened. “Hey Magnus, dinner’s- MATHAIR MILIS CHRIOST!” Mallory screamed, clamping her hands over her eyes and running out. The two laid motionless for a good minute, neither one wanting to get up to close the door. Before they could decide, Halfborn entered and casually said, “Mallory wanted me to tell you guys that dinner’s ready.” He paused for a moment, enjoying the looks on their faces. “But it looks like you guys are busy, so I’ll see you later.” With that, Halfborn exited and closed the door behind him. Immediately, they both let out a big breath, Magnus accidentally laying his full weight on Alex. “Magnus! Off!” he yelled, sitting up once Magnus obeyed. They stared at each other for a moment, both in shock from the intrusion. Finally, after about thirty seconds of awkward silence, Magnus broke the tension, “Well that was a major cock-block.” Alex burst out in laughter, a wild, loud one that seemed to be the result of holding it in for awhile. Magnus joined in, clutching his sides at the hilarity of the situation. Eventually the chuckles died down, leaving the two huddled together. Magnus turned his head and kissed Alex on the cheek before saying, “We should get down there.” Alex nodded, standing up and putting on his clothes. Magnus followed suit, slipping on a clean outfit. Hand in hand they walked out of the room and down the hallway towards their inevitable humiliation at the dinner table. Chapter End Notes The Irish in this that Mallory screams translates to "sweet mother of Christ" for those who were wondering. (I don't speak Irish myself so I can't be 100% sure) ***** Chapter 3 ***** Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes When the two of them walked into the dining hall together, they didn’t get many looks. Most of the people were too focused on eating meat or drinking mead to pay attention to them. Those that did notice them only gave them a confused glance as to say, “Why are you late?” But they weren’t stopped by anyone. The floor nineteen crew had saved two seats for them with Halborn next to them and TJ and Mallory across. Alex and Magnus sat down, Halfborn on Magnus’s side. TJ and Mallory were engaged in a conversation as they piled ham and potatoes onto their plates. As Magnus took a bite, Halfborn nudged his side with his elbow. Magnus glanced at Halfborn, saying with his mouth full, “Yeah?” Halfborn smiled and murmured, “So how was giving head?” Magnus almost spat out his food, whipping his head around to look at Alex, who had joined TJ and Mallory’s conversation. Not wanting Alex to hear their conversation, Magnus suggested the two of them get up and take a walk. Halfborn agreed and stood up with Magnus. “What the hell, man?” Magnus whined once they were a safe distance away from the table. Halfborn chuckled, “You Americans and your secrecy, those Puritans messed you guys up.” Magnus shook his head, opening his mouth to argue. Halfborn cut him off, “Save it. Now, how was giving head?” Magnus’s cheeks went red at remembering the incident, his cock getting semi erect thinking about Alex’s naked body. His pale skin was so soft under Magnus’s touch, as were his lips. When he was hot or embarrassed his entire body went red instead of just his face. His chest didn’t have much hair on it, but what was there was dark and wispy. His nipples got so hard while the two were kissing, and Magnus wished he’d taken more advantage of them. And his dick, while not being terribly thick, was decently long with a large head. Magnus could faintly recall the taste of his precum, slightly salty, but pleasant nonetheless. Magnus licked his lips at these thoughts. “Well, that’s my answer I guess!” Halfborn laughed, vaguely gesturing at Magnus’s crotch. He looked down and saw the tent growing in his pants. He tried to inconspicuously hide it, hushing Halfborn. “Stop it!” Magnus told his friend, pausing for a moment. “We didn’t even do much so shut up.” “But when I walking in you guys were-” “Going to do something but we never finished,” Magnus said sheepishly, directing his gaze to his feet. Halfborn nodded, then prodded Magnus in the chest. “Well, let’s go wrap up dinner so you two can get it on!” This time, Magnus joined in with Halfborn’s booming laughter, though, he was still quite uncomfortable with talking about the topic with his friend. The two walked back to the table, Magnus pulling in his chair to ensure his boner was covered by the tablecloth. They resumed eating, talking with the rest of floor nineteen throughout the meal. After a few minutes, Magnus could feel his dick finally calming down. Everything was fine… until Alex dropped his fork. Magnus was distracted when it happened, so he didn’t attempt to stop Alex from ducking under the table to retrieve the utensil. When he felt Alex brush against his knee, it was too late. When Alex emerged from under, his face was pink. Magnus glanced over and made eye contact with Alex, who held it for a moment before focusing back on his food. Magnus breathed a sigh of relief, glad Alex didn’t seem too weirded out by it. Just when Magnus began to compose himself, he felt a hand skim across his leg towards his crotch. He looked down, realizing the hand on his dick was attached to the arm sprouting from Alex’s shoulder. Without breaking conversation, Alex worked his hand to undo Magnus’s pants buttons and zipper. He felt through Magnus’s underwear and stroked his cock, which was growing to full size quickly. Giving a very small whimper, Magnus shakily picked up his fork and took another bite of his ham. He tried to tune into the conversation happening between his friends. “...And then he knocked me off her back with his axe, which, would you believe it, killed me!” Mallory told of the events of the wargames. TJ snickered as Halfborn started to defend himself. “Well, it’s not my fault she turned!” He said, crossing his arms. Mallory made a face, “Mmm hmm. Well, Magnus was there, right?” At the moment, Magnus’s eyes were glazed over as he bathed in the bliss Alex was giving him. He had his cock fully out, Alex slowly stroking his hand up and down his new lover’s shaft. “Magnus?” Mallory’s voice snapped him out of his euphoric state. “Oh! Yeah, yeah I was there,” Magnus nodded. “Mallory was completely taken out by Halfborn. Sorry, Keen, but I was so close to laughing was you used your last words to-” he groaned as Alex squeezed his hand tightly around his cock. “Magnus are you okay?” TJ asked, his voice laced with concern. Magnus nodded vigorously, quickly glancing at Alex. “Yeah I’m fine, I’m fine. I got a… cramp in my foot, heh.” Mallory and TJ looked at each other with apprehension as Halfborn and Magnus made eye contact. Halfborn saw Alex’s hand reaching under the tablecloth and chuckled softly. “Magnus is fine, he was talking about how his foot hurt when we took a walk earlier,” Halfborn reassured, patting Magnus on the shoulder. Mallory and TJ nodded, not completely convinced, but satisfied. At this point Alex had stopped rubbing Magnus, he swiped his thumb over the head and pulled Magnus’s underwear back on. Magnus reached under and buttoned his pants, taking Alex’s hand when he was done. Their fingers intertwined, staying that way until the end of dinner. Chapter End Notes Sorry for the wait, I've been super busy lately! Things should begin to clear up soon, though! Hope you enjoyed! ***** Chapter 4 ***** Chapter Notes I'm so sorry I haven't posted in a couple weeks, life happened, I guess. Here's a pretty short chapter with a bit of angst in it so get excited. There will most likely be smut in the next chapter so heads up See the end of the chapter for more notes Alex and Magnus were separated on the way back to Floor Nineteen, but Alex had stuck with Mallory. Together they wove through the crowd of einherjar, most of who were drunk and wouldn’t stop bumping into the pair. Eventually, they found a lounge area and sat down on one of the couches to wait for the throng if people to disperse. They sat in silence for a minute, Mallory twisting her thumbs together and Alex bouncing her leg. “So should we talk about…” Mallory trailed off. Alex’s face went red, remembering Mallory had walked in on her and Magnus. Halfborn had been weirdly cool about it, though Alex supposed that was because he was from a very different time period. Alex nodded slowly. “Sorry you had to see that.” Mallory chuckled, shaking her head. “Maybe it’s not such a good idea to have soundproof rooms,” she said, shrugging her shoulders. “You know what? It’s fine, really. It was just surprising.” “Heh, yeah…” Alex agreed. “And we all know you and Halfborn have sex all the time so…” Mallory began sputtering, making Alex laugh. “No, you’re fine, really. No one cares.” Mallory giggled, “Oh, okay.” They sat there just looking at each other for a moment, trying to read the other’s face. Eventually Mallory spoke, “This is going to be weird but… you have a-” “Dick? Yeah, I was born assigned as a male,” Alex explained, pulling at her sweater. Mallory nodded. “Were you a guy while you and Magnus were…” Mallory expected Alex to finish for her again. Alex decided to make her squirm. “While we were what?” she asked innocently. Mallory opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out. Alex winked at her, “I’m just messing with you. Yeah, I was a guy during that.” “And now?” “Girl,” Alex said, smiling. She always felt a bit more comfortable as a girl, but being a boy was also fitting from time to time. Suddenly, Mallory broke out in Irish again, “Dia, ní féidir liom a chreidiúint go bhfuil mé ag rá seo.” Alex waited for her to either translate or explain further. Mallory sighed, then looked up into Alex’s eyes and asked bluntly, “Do you know what you’re doing?” The question confused Alex. What did she mean? Did she think Alex was getting into something she wasn’t ready for with Magnus? Did she think Alex wasn’t mature enough to handle this? Mallory saw the look on Alex’s face and clarified, “Do you know how to use protection? Have you guys developed a consent system yet? Do you know what you’re doing?” Alex stopped Mallory from going any further, “Okay I get it.” Alex glanced at Mallory, who looked as though she was expecting something from Alex. “You wants answers?” Alex realized, Mallory nodding her head. The answers really were simple, Alex didn’t know how to use protection, they didn’t have a ‘consent system’, and she had no idea what she was doing. All at once the thought hit her, despite her desperately wanting to be with Magnus, was it really right for her to dive right in? Especially when they were preparing for the end of the world? Magnus seemed to be a key factor in how Ragnarok will play out in the end, Alex really shouldn’t be distracting him from training and developing his plans to somehow save the world. She had really only just arrived to Valhalla, she had no real significance yet. The whole wedding thing was just because of her stupid mother, it had nothing to do with her. Why was she even put on Floor 19 with these heroes? She was insignificant compared to her friends, they’d been here and trained longer than she ever will. And her sister was constantly balancing her life as a regular high schooler and her job as a valkyrie. Where did Alex fit into all of this? Again, the answer was simple: she didn’t. “Hey, hey, hey!” Mallory suddenly had her arms around Alex, who had just noticed she’d let a tear fall. “What just happened? I’m sorry if I came on too aggressive, I just wanted to help-” Alex cut her off by returning the embrace. “I’m fine, really. Just, reality caught up with me for a second,” Alex said into Mallory’s shoulder. Mallory nodded. “It’s okay, Alex. That happens sometimes when you’re an immortal demigod.” This made Alex chuckle, and relax a bit. They pulled away from each other and smiled. “Oh look! There’s barely a crowd now,” Alex chirped, looking around. Together they stood up and made their way to Floor 19. Chapter End Notes Irish means: God, I can not believe that I'm saying this.
