"Now how is it you do this?" Loki was indeed failing at the easiest task of arts and craft "You grab a hold of this ribbon, pull it through the loop and it should tie together securely" She smiled at him as he picked up another green ribbon "This is difficult, how in the heavens did you manage to figure out this entirely strange concept of tying ribbons?" "Practice, patience. And you can't forget the fun" "This is definitely not fun, not fun at all" he huffed with a pout, he wasn't the type to like and enjoy consistent failure.

"You'll get it eventually, don't think I succeeded on my first try" she giggled as he slumped back and crossed his legs over, pouting as he continued to fail over and over again without any sight of success "I don't like this" he mumbled "You only don't like it because you keep failing" she laughed as he stood up "Can I show you the library?! I can guarantee it to be much more exciting and entertaining than this, 'ribbon looping' " he chuckled as it was now her turn to pout.

"But I wanted to finish this first..." she whispered as he frowned softly, not liking that his new friend was now upset. And he didn't want to lose another friend to Thor, he wanted someone he could tell all his secret to, tell them things he wouldn't tell his mother and start small pranks on the maids and guards. He wanted someone to like him too.

"We can finish it first if you like, then we can do something you like afterwards?" "I thought you wanted to go to the library?" She looked at him with an odd expression, tilting her head to the side as her chestnut brows scrunched up with confusion "We can go another time, it's no rush" he laughed nervously as a hand came up subconsciously rubbed the back of his head "You sure, we can always do the ribbons later-" "No it's fine, we can tie more ribbons" He chuckled while sitting next to her on the couch "Okay" she smiled as he matched her, except...her feelings and emotions, his were missing, his were lost.

"Come on Loki, let's go. Father is calling us" Both pair of friendly heads looked up to the blonde haired and blue eyed prince "We were in the middle of something Thor-" "Father is calling us, we must go" Loki sighed in defeat before looking back at Sylph with an apologetic look in his eyes "I'm sorry, we could continue this another time or you could go find my mother" "It's okay, I can wait. And if you take a while I can just go back to my room" she smiled at him which caused his lips to twitch into a smile as he grinned from ear to ear.

"We must hurry in case you anger him" Thor pushed as he was getting slightly annoyed with Loki as he was taking his time "I'm coming Thor, father wouldn't mind waiting a few minutes" Loki mumbled to him as he walked past his brother.

"Aren't you coming?" Loki asked suspiciously as Thor stayed "You go, I'll catch up with you in a moment" "Okay?" Loki left without saying another word, a sense of worry filling up inside of him as he couldn't help but stare back every few seconds to see if his brother was coming but to his dismay, Thor was nowhere in sight.

"We've never been properly introduced milady?" Thor bowed as he softly kissed her hand, to which she wiped uneasily onto her dress "I-I don't think so either" she laughed nervously as she took a step back, turning around to face the wall as she could feel sweat forming around her forehead for no apparent reason "I am prince Thor, first born of the King Odin and hopefully, king of my fathers throne one day" he mused with a smile "T-that's nice" she smiled awkwardly "I think you should go now, wouldn't want to make your father angry" She laughed softly "You're right, he must be waiting" "Y-yay..." she cheered nervously.

"Nice speaking with you...Sylph was it?" "Yeah, my name-my name is Sylph-" She felt very awkward in this situation and she mainly didn't know why. "Delightful to meet your acquaintance Sylph, I hope to get to know you in the future" "Definitely" she smiled awkwardly at Thor as he walked out the doors.

"Thank God" she let out a loud sigh of relief as she fell back against the sofa, internally groaning as she could hear loud chatting and footsteps approaching. Taking it a chance as she hid behind the sofa.

"Did you see that girl with Loki?" "Yeah, does anyone know who she is? I've been seeing her around a lot lately" "I don't know who she is, but maybe she's a relative to the queen" "It's a possibility Hogun, but I highly doubt it" Sif sighed annoyingly "Oh please, she has to be a relative to the queen, did you see the girl?! Absolutely stunning" Fandral laughed as he playfully slapped Volstagg on the arm "You've seen her?" "Who hasn't" He laughed loudly as Sif and Hogun only rolled their eyes at the two idiotic boys in front of them.

"You two do realise what we're talking about right?" "Of course, why wouldn't we" Fandral looked at Sif with that flirtatious glint in his eyes "Don't start now Fandral, we're talking about something important" "I know we are" He gasped with a hurtful look on his face, a hand coming up to hold his chest "What were you talking about?" "I simply stated that-" "Oh I totally agree, no doubt about it. But if you would accompany me to the Chastice Ball, I would be thrilled" He grabbed her hand and placed a small kiss on the back of her palm.

She snatched her hand away and wiped it onto her dress, rolling her eyes as she made a slightly disgusted and annoyed noise before shoving him out of the way "Offer happily declined Fandral, go find yourself another maiden" young, teenager Sif huffed as she turned him down once again and ignored his request "Why should I? I have you" He chuckled as she walked away "You'll come back for me don't worry" He called out as she left "That is not a way to get a lady Fandral, nonetheless treat one like that" Hogun stated, holding his hands behind his back as the two fifteen year olds stared at each other "Everything I do is perfect, Sif's just stubborn as always, nothing new or special" He laughed Hogun off and followed the direction in Which Sif left as the friend group of four scattered back to their rooms.

"Well, that was..." Sylph swallowed the build up of saliva in her mouth as she sighed, shaking ever so softly as goosebumps appeared on her arms and legs from a small shiver running up her spine. Causing the small hairs to rise up and be obvious "Who goes there?!" She froze when she heard the sound of metal sliding against metal, alerting her that whoever that was just pulled out a sword "No one" She whispered as she hid behind the couch silently "I know you're in here, I heard you" It was clearly a man, or a boy possibly around her age? She couldn't understand the concept of time here, it seemed longer yet shorter.

She almost let out a scream when someone grabbed her arm, pulling her up as he covered her mouth with his hand "Don't make a sound, or I'll slit your throat" She gulped and nodded her head "Who are you" He sneered as she tried to back away "Sylph-I didn't do anything, I promise" She whispered as her body froze over, memories of Hydra popping up in her eyes. Giving her the thoughts and screams of the nights they would inject 'special' chemicals modified and pre-tested just for her. Just for them to produce their destructive toy to wipe out the world.

"Did I say you did?" He asked carefully as she was freaking out, the blade pointing to her neck not helping as the boy who looked just a couple of years older. Held her to his chest. Her hands only holding onto his arm just to hold him "Please" She felt like crying as the tips of her hair started to glow blue as well as her eyes "I didn't do anything, please" She started to cry as tears began falling from her eyes, gliding down her cheeks as the droplets fell onto her dress, staining it a darker shade of orange.

His eyes softened as they immediately widened before he backed away, noticing her glowing hair and colour changing eyes "Please" She whispered once again as she held her hands out in front of her, hoping that he would put his weapon away and just leave her alone, she was scared. And that was the worst emotion as they were working on it before some sort of bombing happened, allowing her to escape. But all she heard before it was that it had the highest chance to malfunction-and she was not looking forward to finding out what exactly it did.

"Please, I'll hurt you please leave" She cried as her hands began glowing blue, almost ice like before the cool mixture starting turning into black sludge as it was freaking her out even more "LEAVE!" She screamed as the black liquid froze around her into an ice-like cage with black crystals forming around her constantly, getting bigger every few seconds.

"What in the heavens-" He quit his sentence as he began racing to the throne room, eager and hopeful to find the queen and the king. "Your majesties!-" He panted as he busted through the doors unannounced "What is the meaning of this-" "I apologise, but there is an important problem currently growing in the common room-Urgently needs attention-My queen, if you may hurry. She was calling your name" Frigga froze as she immediately looked over at Odin.

She started to rush as her heels slammed into the stone as she was running to get to Sylph, but she was concerned, what would trigger something like this to happen. They were warned about the huge uplift in her emotions, but no one thought it would rage out like this phase did, it was the surprise they never wished to learn.

"Sylph!" She screamed as she tried to open the doors for Frigga struggle "Sylph!" She screamed again as the king and his sons were rushing there too "Are you okay!? SYLPH!" Orbs of power began to glow from her hands as she aimed it at the door, focusing hard as the blasts started to glow a bright yellow, blending with swirls of green and blue, she let them go as they blasted into the door, basically doing nothing as the one whole corner of the room was growing with black crystals, and Frigga's eyes widened when she noticed that the floor was coated in a black fluid "Sylph..." She whispered as there were giant stones as big as the gold pillars blocking her path to the girl.

"Sylph, can you hear me-Sylph!" Frigga's fists smashed against the crystals as she gasped, they grew instantly bigger "Odin-" "Move my love" she nodded her head as Odin held his hands out "Don't hurt her-please" "I won't love, but please, I make no promises" She nodded her head with teary eyes as she backed away behind her husband, holding her children behind herself as she watched Odin begin charging up his magic.

He started to glow bright yellow, almost blinding as Frigga had to turn her head and close her eyes  "Mother-" Loki began, only to be cut off by a sweet hush "Shh, it's alright your father will take care of it".

"I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean to lash out at him, I didn't mean to blow up the common room-" "Sweetheart it's alright-" "It's not, I lashed out and-and..." She began crying again, sobbing as Frigga held Sylph tightly in a warm embrace "Shh I got you now, you're safe. I won't let anything happen to you do you understand" Frigga told her firmly while holding her shoulders "I-" "Do you understand Sylph? I promise to you now." She nodded her head at the queen before the older lady pulled her tighter into the hug.

"Do you see that? Look how close she is with the queen!" Exclaimed Fandral as he shook Volstagg's by the shoulders "Your point is?" He jumped back he heard a female voice from behind him "For heavens sake Sif!" He held his chest as he leaned over Volstagg for support "Don't do that to me" "Don't do what?" She smirked "You obviously know what" "No not really" She laughed sarcastically as he looked over at her funnily "Alright...".

He looked away from her as she casually strolled next to the two boys as they eyed her wearily "No need to be afraid of me, I mean you no harm" She smiled at them as they instinctively took a couple of steps back. "What happened, are you scared Fandral? I thought you weren't scared of anything" "Anything has limits-" He chuckled nervously while pushing Volstagg in front of him "You're obviously afraid-" "Sif, Fandral" They both looked up at Heimdal who walked pass them "Heimdal-" But he ignored them and continued his way to the little girl he'd grown to love over the past few weeks.

"Where is she, my King?" He looked over at Odin who lowly held out his arm, and following his direction Heimdal looked over to see Frigga on the bed with a sleeping Sylph by her side "My queen-" He rushed to her side and sat on the opposite side of the bed, looking over with his gold eyes at the sleeping girl "Is she alright, I've been informed and I-" "Heimdal...It's alright" Frigga smiled at the worrying warrior, smiling at him gently as he seemed to stop his worrying-just by a little.

"What happened?"

"She got scared..."
