It seemed they were taking her to the palace. Will Odin be there? Obviously, he's the King. Don't be stupid, Elizabeth. Will I meet my beloved Queen Frigga? I smiled at the thought of meeting the Goddess, the wisest, the mother of the two Gods who walked before her. However, one of them didn't want to accept that he was the son of the two Kings of Asgard.
I sighed at the thought of Loki's behavior sometimes. Your parents are the ones who raise you, not the ones who abandon you to die. It can be quite upsetting to find out years later, and there must have been quite a few because everyone should be over 1,000 years old, but they're still his parents, right? I looked at the Asgardians around me; they all seemed to be young. I still had some doubts about the people of Asgard. If they let her stay a while, maybe I'd do some research.
We arrived in front of some large gates, and the guards looked at me strangely. Because of my clothes? Why was I with the princes? Why did Heimdall seem intrigued to see me? I couldn't say.
The God of Thunder entered, and I stood outside, next to the God of Deception, with the guardian of the Bifrost behind me.
— You know, it's very likely that "the other" is informing the Mad Titan of your defeat. — I whispered to the God, which was stupid. Eli, please. Heimdall hears everything. Can you be any stupider? I don't know why I'm whispering, as if no one's going to hear me.
— They should be coming in now. — Said the guard who was there
— Fine, thanks — I can't escape anymore, right? — And... if I go to the bathroom, where's the bathroom? Will you let me go?
— Forward — Heimdall almost pushed me inside. The god of mischief seemed very amused by my behavior.
— "Calm down, old man," — I said on air in Spanish — How many languages do they teach you in Asgard?
— What? — Thor said next to me.
— You're supposed to take care of the 9 worlds, but the Earth has many languages. Do you learn them all?
— I...
— Good afternoon, Lady Elizabeth — His voice echoed throughout the room, sending goosebumps down my spine. — It's a pleasure to have you here.
— The pleasure is mine, Allfather — I said, trying to sound formal — or Odin Borson? King of the Gods? Well, I don't know anymore — Just shut up and listen.
— You are a very interesting person — Said Frigga, who was near her husband
— You are prettier in person — I answered without thinking. A few seconds later, I heard laughter. — I'd better not talk, — Odin had a small smile.
— You have been called here, because we need some explanation of your wisdom — Eli, the wisest — and regarding some facts or things you do.
— Good — I sighed heavily — Shouldn't you reprimand the prince first? You know... something like, "I, Odin, Allfather, King of Asgard, condemn you, Loki Odinson... or Laufeyson, I don't know. God of Mischief, Prince of Asgard, to an eternity of imprisonment in the Asgardian Dungeons." — I finished and realized what I had said – Okay, now I'll stay quiet, or I'll end up in prison next to the God of lies — I looked at Loki and joined my lips so as not to say anything else.
— Okay, that will be his punishment after all. — Frigga said, a little sadly. She looked at Loki with a "you let your mother down" face.
— You can take off his handcuffs and muzzle. — I said, — He may be a war criminal and have caused chaos on Earth. But he is your son, — I said, looking at the two Gods, — and he is still the Prince of Asgard. He must receive and accept his punishment in a dignified manner.
— You are very smart — The queen spoke as Thor looked at me in astonishment. — How are you sure he won't escape?
— The truth is, we both know it's not good for him. — I said, shrugging my shoulders, and I looked at the God. — Sorry, now I swear I'll never speak again. — Allfather smiled, and the Goddess at his side let out a small laugh. "Well, Elizabeth, maybe they won't kill you and leave you as the castle jester."
— I will accept my punishment — Loki had suddenly walked to the front, with all the glamour of a diva — May I ask, why is the Midgardian here? I doubt it's just because of what you've said; there's something more.
— I don't think you have the right to ask Loki — Said his brother, a strange side of Thor. I never would have imagined it.
— I asked for her... It was my idea for her to come. — Said Frigga in an authoritative voice
— Of course, and Allfather decided that she should come because you told him to. There's something else, isn't there? It couldn't have been that easy.
In a way, Loki is telling his father that the Queen is dominating him.
— Brother, please stop talking to our parents like that.
— Your parents!
— Well, Loki, because of you, I just broke my oath from a minute ago. — I said angrily — Odin has only behaved as a king should, he not only listened to the opinion of his "wife," but he made a decision, after speaking with one of the wisest people in Asgard — I looked at him angrily — Your father not only listened to Frigga, but it is more than that. He took into account how his people think. The queen would not have made a decision like bringing a Midgardian to Asgard out of pure curiosity. That is why none of you are prepared to be King, you do not understand it — I said, pointing to the brothers — So many years of life to not learn a little of what your parents taught you.
— Yes, none of them are ready yet. — Odin said, — I ask you, Miss, to accompany my Queen while I stay with my children and tell them the sentence. Although it seems you already know what it will be.
— I understand, sorry for intruding, Allfather. — I saw Frigga approach me and tell me to follow her. — Goodbye, — I said, leaving the room. Before leaving, I made a sign that I would be watching Loki, which seemed to amuse his brother.
— Darling, would you take a walk with me? — I smile. Well, it's not like I can refuse, right? — I'd like to talk.
— I would go to Hell with you. — I said and blushed after realizing that it hadn't just been a thought — But I guess we'll go to the garden, right?
— I was thinking of showing you the palace. We should be close by when it's time to talk to you.
— I see... I guess I'll see the garden someday. They say it's wonderful. — I walked beside her in silence until she spoke.
— I heard you talking to Heimdall.
— Do you hear me? Wow, I was just doing it for fun.
— Fun?
— Yeah, he's supposed to see and hear everything. — I said, looking at the floor. — So I spoke to him when it seemed necessary? Or something like that. I don't know which word sounds better.
— I understand, thanks for everything.
— Honestly, even if I didn't talk to him, he would know what was going on, so it's not a big change.— I told her — I don't need you to thank me... your majesty.
— But I'll insist on doing so anyway — She smiled at me — I think we should go now.
— Where to? — I said — Ah, with Odin. I mean... Allfather.
— Yes, with him.
For the next few minutes, I walked with the queen toward the room we'd come from. We waited a bit, and I watched as Loki was led away. As he passed me, he winked at me, and I looked at him with a frown. It seemed funny, something very silly considering where they were taking him. At least Thanos wouldn't be coming for him. That's good, right?
The Queen entered the room, and I saw Thor standing next to his father, while she positioned herself on the opposite side of her son. Heimdall was behind me again. Is he bored without the bridge? Because I don't see any point in him following me.
— Lady Elizabeth — Odin said — As was told to you before, you were called to talk about your powers.
— Powers? — Ask, until now my only power was to ruin everything after speaking — I don't understand — Elizabeth, stand firm, if you can beat Fury, you can beat him.
— Are you a human? — Asked Allfather
— Well, yes — Right?
— Do you have magic?
— In a way, the magic I learned from the "masters of the mystic arts" is not similar to that possessed by others. — I looked at Frigga. — I wasn't raised by witches, like the queen. I spent a lot of time in an orphanage, — I said the last bit with a grimace. — I only learned a little at six.
— At 6? — Frigga asked
— Yes, at that age, I thought I would learn more, but I couldn't because my presence in the Sanctuary would have greatly changed the destiny of everyone there.
— Destiny? — Thor asked, and I just nodded.
— How old are you? — Odin spoke
— Technically, 13. But I tried... I did an experiment that failed, and I aged about 4 years. — Sigh
— How much do you know about us?
— Not much, really. — I looked at the two kings — If you are going to question me, I ask you to please tell Thor to leave the room.
— Why should I leave?
— Because I have a very loose tongue, I could reveal truths that you shouldn't know about... for now. — I told him — As you saw before, I don't stop talking until I say uncomfortable things.
— Thor — The king spoke — Please step aside while we talk to your friend
— Well, goodbye, Lady Elizabeth. — It went a little slowly. Am I friends with a God? Interesting words.
—Shall I continue? — I said a little uncomfortably — you can ask whatever you want, or I can continue talking about what I know about your people, your majesty.
— Come closer, girl. — Said Odin
— Okay — Walk slowly
— Doesn't it bother you that the three of us are here? — Said Frigga a little close to me
— To be honest, no — Lie — you're just looking for answers, and Heimdall would see and hear even if he wasn't here... I guess. — Honestly, what if the room was under a spell? I'd never thought about that.
— Not really — Said the guard — I can't see or hear what you're saying, not if I'm not fully focused, and even then it's too hard.
— Why couldn't you? — I asked curiously
— We don't know — Replied Odin
— Oh, is that why I'm here? — I said to them, — But how did the queen know I was talking to Heimdall? He can't see or hear me... How is that possible?
— Let's say he can only do it with "your permission"
— You see, I don't mean to sound disrespectful to any of you. — I looked at them — but really... There are many things you can ask me, but there are also many I couldn't tell you. Because I don't know them, or as I told you, I can't change destiny. Not completely.
— Could you tell us something, the slightest thing? — said Heimdall — To verify what you are telling us.
— I... — What will I say? How will they die? Impossible. — I know how Ragnarok will happen. — Is it okay to say that? — No, wait, I know the marauders attacked Vanaheim.
— Ragnarok? — Frigga sighed — You can see the future, clairvoyant?
— I'm sorry, but I can't say how I know. — I come from another world — My old teacher said that if she didn't know it, it wasn't meant to be known.
— Interesting words. Anything else?
— No... but I think I can give you an idea of why no one knows about me. — I told them, — I'm not supposed to exist. I should have died. Ancestral can't see anything of my future, and it could be the same with Heimdall.
— Heimdall, can you step aside?
— Yes, my queen — Heimdall is gone.
— How much do you know about magic?
— Everyone is supposed to be connected to the multiverse in some way. So everyone can learn magic, it's just a matter of studying it... so to speak. But I don't know much; I've only been doing what little I've learned in, like, a month? Or something.
— A month?
— I had to leave very early — shrugged — I learned a bit quickly, but I couldn't train much due to the short time. Once outside, I dedicated myself to trying to learn about healing. But it's not very similar to the magic that the Asgardians possess, in a certain way. What I learned has only been to help.
— Well, that's quite a bit of information. — The queen spoke.
— Do you have anything else to confess? — "Odin is a father and I will tell him my sins," I thought and tried not to laugh, "punishment, 20 Our Fathers and 10 Hail Marys."
— No, but something to note — I looked at them — Sooner or later, your children will have to find out about Hela, try not to let it be too late.
— Frigga, please escort our guest to her room. We will speak again tomorrow. — Allfather closed the conversation.
I left in fear. What can I do now? Did I talk too much? Did he get angry about his daughter? Maybe I should have just accepted my father's punishment and not run off to another world without his permission. I need to get back to Earth before Stark decides to tell the Mandarin the location of his house. Will they let me go? Maybe they've already named a cell in the dungeon after me.
— Don't be so worried — Frigga said, noticing my face — nothing bad will happen to you.
— I'm not quite sure, but I'll take your word for it, my queen.
— You will stay in this room for today — She led me to a guarded door. "I knew it, I'm a prisoner." — We'll talk again tomorrow. They'll bring you something to eat.
— Thank you so much.
What does a Marvel fan do when they arrive in their idol's world? They didn't know, maybe what she was doing, or maybe the complete opposite. What do you do in Asgard? Obviously, checking everything out. "Curiosity killed Elizabeth the cat... yes, but she died knowing."
I took in the whole room. I gave it 1 point because it had a bathroom, a strange one, but it was clearly royal. Another point for the bed; it was huge and comfortable. Why wasn't she born here? It seemed like an excellent place. Although she would suffer greatly later, maybe she wasn't born here because she had been a human and would have taken care of them even if she were from another world. Would that be weird? It should be. Asgardians have always believed they are much better than humans... well, everyone believes they are better than humans. Even though we believe we are better than the person next to us.
How interesting we are, aren't we? And also very stupid.
Two women came in and gave me some food, along with a change of clothes. I did the most important thing: eat.
What's the next step? When she went to SHIELD, they took a long time to give her food. Although in a way, she stayed here longer. But she always had someone with her, so time passed more quickly. Being alone is boring and slow.
Should she try to get out? Yes, why not? I walked slowly to the door and opened it a crack. The guards were there. Would they let her out? I tried to open it a little more, but the door closed. "Nope, Elizabeth. You're a prisoner. Completely."
— "How small the world is" — I started singing after a few minutes, I was lying in bed with my head hanging — what's the point of the world being so small if I'm not there anymore?
— You are a very strange and small human. — Sif was inside the room. Am I really that small?
— What are you doing here, Lady Sif? You've grown bored with the company of the three warriors; they're too "banal" for you," — I said in the same position
— Why are you like this?
— I'm helping the blood flow to my head faster so I can think. But honestly, I've been like this for so long that I could faint at any moment, — I said, already a little dizzy.
— So, you're bored, right?
— Yep — I said, marking the "P" — Are you bored? Or did you come out of curiosity, or did someone send you to watch me? Do you think I can get out?
— It's too late for someone like you to leave.
— Someone "like me"? — I thought for a moment and spoke again — Whether you're referring to "human," or "small," or "girl," I doubt it's because I'm a "woman." You are, and I'm sure it's very difficult to prove that you can do the same or much more than men. — I stood up from the bed — I may not be a warrior, but I think I can defend myself well.
— You cannot leave by order of the king.
— Well, if I don't make it to the meeting tomorrow, tell everyone I know that I died of boredom. — That was the last thing I said before throwing myself onto the bed, my head covered by the pillow. — Goodbye, cruel world. — As soon as Sif left, I pulled the pillow away from my face, and a different song started coming out of my mouth. — "Look at my loneliness, it doesn't suit me at all."
