~The Hammer’s tale~
A piece of metal alloy, broken off an alien spacecraft, hurtled through the dark void until it entered a blue planet’s atmosphere in a fiery blaze. Its long journey ended at the bottom of a deep gorge, where it stayed, forgotten and inert.
A village girl out gathering firewood was waylaid by wild wolves. Deciding a quick death was preferable to being the pack’s dinner, she leapt off a cliff into a deep, stony gorge. Instead of death, the girl found the meteor stone, and a bond for the ages was formed.
Weeks later, raiders numbering two dozen paid her tribe an unwelcome visit. Their goal to plunder and enslave. Instead they met death, in the form of a warrior-ess wielding a strange hammer and even stranger, otherworldly powers.
The hammer found itself born into the age of brawn and savagery. Descendants of the village girl sated the Hammer with constant warfare and blood of foes. In return, the Hammer granted the girls powers of flight, of mastery over lightning, of self-healing. It didn’t stop there. To ensure the continuation of the Olsen line, the Hammer worked its mysterious powers to make them desirable to potential mates. Olsen women were talked of as goddesses, and tend to resemble the same. Tall with shimmering golden hair, with lean legs, firm buttocks, narrow waists, and voluptuous breasts.
But for all its powers, the Hammer couldn’t beat back the advancement of civilization and technology. The age of warfare passed. Less problems require solving by a lightning bolt to the head. One day, the incumbent holder, an airheaded, butter-fingered millennial named Vallie, even had the nerve the pack it inside a suitcase, where it jangled among other antique memorabilia carrying too much sentimental value to go straight to the trash. The Hammer collected dust in the dark, lusting bitterly for battles like old times. And the sentient meteor made a decision – perhaps it was time to move on from the Olsen bloodline.
When it finally emerged from the suitcase, the Hammer still answered to Vallie. But the girl was clumsy... unworthy. She couldn’t keep her mitts on the Hammer if she tried. Though it continued to serve the Olsen girl, it kept a figurative eye out for a new worthy host. For another human woman to come in contact. For it was with women who it forms the strongest bonds.
On the train tracks, it got picked up by Allison Weaver - albeit briefly. It was enough time for the Hammer to learn that she was shrewd, driven, and quick-witted. It marked her, by imbuing a sliver of power within the girl.
In the hospital, it was briefly held by Sandra “Sandy” Bittencourt. Although her tiny physique left some to be desired, the Hammer saw potential in her youth and spirit. It marked her as well, by imbuing a sliver of power within the girl.
So it was, by some extra-terrestrial power yet to be comprehensible by modern science, Vallie, Allison and Sandy were bonded inside the Hammer’s power sphere. Though none of them are wise to it yet. But currently, the Hammer is powerless to aid them in their plight. Two of them are out cold, while Vallie…

Her heart pounded before the bloodcurdling sight. Rabid eyes, sharp fangs, and saliva frothing at the corners of its muzzle.
“Goooood doggie. Stay. Shh-shhh-shh... Gooood boooy...” Vallie cooed, as she backed away from the angry hound in slow motion. But she was running out of space. A few more steps back, she would bump into the mass of homeless who had appeared out of the shadowy alleyways. She risked taking her eyes off the pitbull for just a second and glanced behind her shoulder. The sight and smell of the dirty vagrants disgusted her... and there was that strange woman, still having trouble with her phone. She is trying to contact someone, Vallie thought grimly. A certain villain, perhaps? If so, she has no time to lose.
“You guys gonna help?” she asked through gritted teeth. She knew the answer already.
An idea came to her. Very slowly - so as not to startle the hound any more - she took off her jacket by slipping one arm out of it after the next. From behind she heard wolf whistles and catcalls. At the sight of her bare upper arms, the men took turns to say ungentlemanly words which Vallie didn’t bother to catch. She has to be 100% focused on the pitbull.
All of a sudden, Vallie threw the denim garment into the air behind the dog. She saw its beady eyes follow its trajectory... and that was her cue to RUN. Her sneakers kicked against the hard pavement, and the gym trainer took off towards O’Sheary’s neon sign. Raindrops splattered against her face, her lungs bursted painfully, the sound of her heartbeat pounded her eardrums. Vallie ran for her life. She didn't dare to look back... to see if the crazed pitbull would take after her. Her breast (unbound by a bra) threatened to spill out of that tight dress. The air draft billowed the hem of her skirt high. But she didn't care... or rather had no time to care. O'Sheary's is getting closer. Where Andrew and her Hammer is.
