-New York-

Shipping Yard

Hulk and Thor receive a distress signal from the police that some of Thor's opponents, the Wrecking Crew are attacking a shipping yard, hurting a lot of innocent people. They rush over to the shipping area and come across the Wrecking Crew.

"Look, boys! It's Hammer Boy. And his big green gorilla!" One of the men says tauntingly.

"I'm no gorilla, bonehead!" Hulk retorts, getting a sneer of irritance from the leader of the Wrecking Crew, Thunderball.

"Ha! Brilliant choice for remark, Hulk!" Thor says joyfully as he pats Hulk on the back like a brother would to his sibling.

"Thor, shut up! Bulldozer! Crush the fools!" Thunderball calls out as a large man with a dense metal helmet bursts through several cargo containers, charging at Hulk and Thor like an enraged bull.

However, Hulk grins as he rears his right arm back. Right as Bulldozer is about to collide with the green-skinned behemoth, Hulk releases his right arm into a devastating uppercut, sending the armored superhuman flying upwards into the air until he can no longer be seen.

"Whoa!" Thunderball exclaims at his strongest teammate being taken out of the fight so easily.

"Bravo, Hulk! They call you the Strongest for a reason." Thor says boastfully as he looks at Thunderball, who is grinding his teeth in frustration.

Hulk chuckles at Thor's remark as he focuses on Thunderball. "Now...time to smash you, Thunderball!"

Thunderball simply chuckles as Wrecker leaps into the fight, swinging his fist at Hulk, but he catches it and begins to squeeze it, the sound of bone breaking being audible.

"Ahhh! Stop! Owww!" Wrecker screams as Hulk punches him with his other fist, sending him flying into the water.

"All that's left is you and Piledriver..." Thor says with a grin. Right on cue, Piledriver steps up, beating on Hulk while Thunderball grabs a strange energy weapon and aims it at Hulk. Noticing this, Thor smacks Piledriver away from Hulk with his trusted hammer Mjölnir, sending him flying right as Thunderball fires the weapon at Hulk, making him disappear as he roars. "No!" Thor shouts in protest.

"Ha! Looks like the Strongest is no more!" Thunderball taunts.

Enraged, Thor grabs Thunderball by the throat. "Where is he?! What have you done?!"

"It's a teleporting gun, blondie. Relax. He's still alive." Thunderball says, annoyed by Thor's overreaction.

"Where'd you send him?!"

"I dont know. I just typed in random coordinates." Thunderball confesses as Thor headbutts him, knocking him out cold.

-Elsewhere-

Hulk falls from the sky, landing in a cold forest surrounded by snow. Hulk picks himself up and explores, wondering where he is. In all his years of living, he's never seen a forest like this.

"Uh...where am I?" Hulk asks himself as he keeps wandering around, eventually hearing a loud roar. Hulk heads to the source of the roar, finally exiting the forest to come across a most unusual sight, even for someone like him. He sees a large dragon flying above several soldiers and fleeing townsfolk, who are stationed at a small village, firing arrows and swinging swords at the dragon, though they don't seem to hurt the large beast. "A dragon? Sure. Why not?" He says in reaction to all this before smiling to himself as he leaps at an upward angle, latching onto the dragon and repeatedly punching it in the face as it flies above the village, astonishing the people that were struggling to fight the dragon, let alone kill it.

"Remarkable..." One of the soldiers said in amazement as Hulk continues to battle the dragon, finally ending the fight by forcing the large creature to tumble onto the ground and forcefully pries its jaws apart, killing it.

"You alright?" Hulk asks the people, who hesitantly nod, still in awe at their green-skinned savior.

"Y-Yes. Thank you, strange creature. We've been contending with that dragon all day. You made killing that monster look easy..." A female villager says, amazed by Hulk's superior strength to that of the dragon. "What is your name, strong savior?"

"Urgh..." Hulk mumbles, wondering if these people are trustworthy enough for him to tell them who he is. "Hulk."

"Hulk. Fitting name for a champion brawler." A female soldier says as her and several more warriors sheath their swords. "We thank you...for slaying this dragon and saving our skins."

Hulk nods as the soldiers and the villagers chant Hulk's name over and over again in thanks for their protector's good deed. After their cheers end, Hulk looks down at his supporters. "Okay. Can any of you tell me where I am?"

"Of course. This is a small village on the border to Whiterun, a fair city in Skyrim." The female warrior says.

Hulk raises an eyebrow at her answer. "Whiterun? Skyrim? Who came up with these weird names?" Hulk asks himself internally.

"Do you...have a place of residence?" A young woman asks. Hulk thinks about this for a few seconds, not really trusting the admittedly beautiful woman, but sleeping in a stranger's house was definitely more preferable than sleeping in the dark, cold woods at night. Coming to a decision, he shakes his head; wherever this Skyrim was, it certainly wasn't on his Earth. "You can stay with me, emerald one. At least until you can get settled into your life here."

Hulk nods, following it with a slight grunt. "Thanks, but you don't have to do this."

"Nonsense, green skin. It's the least we can do after you saved our unprotected village. Besides...it's better than sleeping in a cold forest by yourself."

Hulk shrugs. "Okay, fair point."

The woman giggles as she leads Hulk to her home, which was pretty good as far as village houses go. The living room had a fireplace, a bookcase full of books about legends and other subjects, and several human-sized furniture. She then leads him upstairs, which was the bedroom. It also had a bookshelf, as well as two beds.

"Nice place." Hulk says upon getting the tour of the place.

"Thank you. It's the least expensive home in the village. Ten gold coins a month." The woman says as she sits on one of the beds.

"Uh...sounds like a good deal." Hulk says upon hearing that gold coins are the currency here instead of dollars like on his Earth.

"It is. How long will you be staying?" The woman asks.

"For a while, I guess." Hulk says as he very slowly sits on the other bed.

"I'm glad to hear that, my friend. I'm Grenda."

"Grenda. I like that name." Hulk says as he lays down, surprised by the endurance of the bed.
