~Tony Stark a.k.a  Iron man POV~

Sins Erin had gone to La La Wonderland I still had a mission with Capsicle. I took another sip of the gross green plant drink. I shrugged at the taste as it flowed down my throat. Rather a whisky for me. I pressed my finger on the little thing I made to count my blood intoxication. It started counting as I put my thumb in my mouth to stop it bleeding. It showed my intoxication.

Blood intoxication; 38%

"You are slowly going backwards sir. The created drink does not slow the process down enough." JARVIS said.

"Yes, I know JARVIS. Thank you for telling me what I just saw. Sometimes I really think you think I'm stupid." I said putting the little thing in my pocket.

I really needed to hurry if I wanted to do that trip with Erin.

"I never said that out loud sir." JARVIS answered.

"No because if you had you would now be taking care of my trash data." I fired back with some sarcasm.

"If I may ask what has you so energetic sir?" He asked as I passed up and down.

I made a clicking sound with my tong as I stopped in my tracks. Of course this whole blood poisoning thing was very.. stressful but for some reason I could easily push it aside thinking Erin would be fine again and we would go out together. She did promise me after all.

"No, you may not ask JARVIS." I replied smirking before leaving my room.

  ~Erin a.k.a The Glitch POV~

It was time for my second test as I flew behind Thor and Loki both leading me to the 'healers'. I was mocking that I had missed breakfast. They hadn't woken me because I couldn't eat anyway. Didn't mean I didn't wanted to be there. The fun thing though was that when I opened my doors of my room both Thor and Loki stood before me. Loki had an annoyed look on his face and Thor didn't quite looked happy with his brother either.

Immediately I laughed drawing their attention. Eventually they both led me to the doctors. I smiled thinking back of their displeased faces when I opened the door. Soon we reached the healers. It were the same woman as yesterday only today Frigga, Thor and Loki's mother, awaited us there.

"I just wants to wish you good luck Erin." She said as she took my hands in hers.

"Thanks." I said with a small smile.

Like last time Ether was there already, strapped down on the table. I took my place on the other next to her.

"Nice to see you again. So what are we gonna do today?" Ether asked sarcastically.

Frigga, Thor and Loki stood by the door. I pulled up a brow as I put myself on the table.

"Thanks for bringing me, I'll see you back hopefully with my own body." One of the healers who did got my hint together with Frigga pushed Thor and Loki out saying I would be back soon.

when that was done the healer from yesterday that had blushed when Thor looked at her strapped me to the table with leather bands.

"What's that for?" I asked ready to kick her in the face if she didn't gave me a good reason.

"Just to be sure Ether does not have any way of escaping and hurting our royal family." She says pulling one of the straps extra tight around my wrist.

I grimaced a bit. She was obviously not very fond of me.

"You know you look a bit like that queen from snow white. You know the one that is the most beautiful in the world? Well, until everyone realized she was a witch and a bitch of course." I said smirking.

Her face had lightened up at my 'compliment' but that soon faltered when I practically told her she was a witch. After three more very very tight straps, that were so worth it, she and the other healers surrounded me and Ether. A second self appeared above us.

"Ow woow! cool." I said as I looked at my own 'back'.

The one above Ether had a dark red liquid swirling threw it's veins. Must be Ether showing it's face there. I smirked.

"We will try a spell stronger than the one we used last time. We hope this has more effect." One of the other healers said.

"As long as I get my body back, although I do have to say that this form sooo has it's plus sides!" I said.

She smiled hesitantly before pressing her fingers to my temples. I was happy Ether got the torture witch but then again, that was my body she was touching.

Before I knew it I had closed my eyes and it was like I stood in a dark room in my own head. I looked around and clapped my hands. Nobody.

"Already bored without me?" Ether asked popping up behind me.

I frowned at Ether now before me. The shape of a man made out of the red liquid Ether was smirked at me.

"Listen to me girl. I will allow you to take your body back but mark my words! I am not done yet." Ether said smirking disturbing.

"I give you your body back but you are not rid of me. This is just the beginning." Ether says as he wrapped his arms around my shoulders.

I tried to get him off me but he was too strong. "As long as your gone I'm fine with it!" I complained.

He let go of me smirking. "I have to say that you would be a good ally. I will rule these realms on my own and you and your powers will be the one helping me to get there." He said.

This was weird. Ether was threatening me that he would use me and my powers to rule the realms but still he gave me back my body. Why would he give it up if he wanted to use it? Seeing my disarray he laughed.

"You will see dear Erin." He said mockingly. "For as long as it took it was fun tormenting you with my nightmare."

I opened my eyes and breathed in a sharp rapid breath. I looked to my left. The ghost like body I had been using was gone from where I left it and I was back in my own body. A gross taste filled my mouth. I scrunched up my nose.

"Oh, it worked! How do you feel Lady Erin?" The nice healer asked.

"Fine, great." I wasn't gonna tell her about what Ether said. "Apart from a discussing taste in my mouth." I said whipping my mouth with my sleeve when she had loosened the leather bands.

They did a few health tests to see if everything was okay and to my surprise when they looked over my body and saw my wrists the red veins were gone. Luckily I could keep the mark on my heart hidden from them. I didn't knew if that was still there but I didn't took the risk to look now. Now that was done I just wanted to shower. I felt dirty like I was covered with slimy stuff. I wasn't, but the idea of having someone else in my body wasn't really making it any better. But first, showing the new old me to the guys.
