Summary: Ellen and Alexis look the same but couldn't possibly be more different. Ellen was born and raised as an Asgardian commoner, but after she has won a tournament and was proclaimed a Godess of Ice and Water by Odin as a reward, her life has changed significantly. Alexis, on the other hand, is a mortal, living in New York at the time of Loki's second attempt of ruling Earth, but there is something that even her father doesen't know about her. She is telpathic and can move objects without even touching them. When they are both recruited as new members of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s secret superhero team - the Avengers, they have a world as a burden. But what happens if one of them falls for the wrong guy? Are they going to let the Earth down for love?

- Ellen of Asgard

"Are you feeling any better now, Ellen?", Thor looked down at me, with an concerned expression.

We were sitting on a bench at the Central Park, surrounded by nature. It was a little bit cold in the shadow of trees, but I liked it. It reminded me of home, and I didn't think that would be possible in New York. Thor was right all along. I knew nothing of the mortal world.

"It's... amazing.", I said, breathing in the clear air, finally. Well, 'clean' in the comparison with the rest of the city, bustling with life. The first thing that struck me when Thor and I appeared in NYC, in the middle of the Times Square, was the smog, and for a second, I thought I was suffocating. Then the lights blinded me, and I just stood there, calling out Thor's name. I was helpless. And I hated being helpless.

"You will get used to it.", I remember his voice in the blindness as he pulled my hand, dragging me here while I protested.

And surprisingly, I did. Just a few minutes later, I could breathe normally and see the colours around me. I even felt a little bit silly for freaking out in the main square like that, drawing unnecessary attention to Thor and me. I blushed, suddenly, and studied Thor's face, trying to find a hint of disappointement in me, or a little bit of anger hidden behind his masculine facial features. But I've found none.

'He is a good man', I concluded. 'And soon, he will be my king.' From what I've seen and heard about his achievements, he seemed brave as well, and honourable, everything that is expected from an Asgardian heir. I remembered the first time that we have met, after I've won another tournament in Asgard and earned a gift from Odin. He gave me a title of the Godess of Ice and Water. He stated that now, regarding that I'm no longer just a commoner, I have new duties to my world... and the other ones that aren't protected as well as Asgard is. Like Earth.

So, I wasn't really surprised when Thor asked for my presence, one day, explaining that Loki, his own brother, escaped the Asgardian prison... Well, actually no, he didn't escape all by himself. Although he is the God of Mischief, he isn't that powerful. He was released. A chitauri lord, someone even Loki feared, somehow managed to set him free. And now, Loki was a threat to Earth once again.

"My brother came really close to ruling Earth the last time that he was there, but the Avengers stopped him just in time. I don't know if that will be the case this time. We need help.", Thor said to me that day.

I remeber frowning at him: "The Avengers?", I asked him, while biting my lower lip.

"They are a team. A team you will be joining soon.", he said with a smile.

Thor suddenly broke the silence, making me return to the present in a blink of an eye:

„I knew you would like it.", he grinned, „Even Loki does, for Odin's sake.".

„I thought that Loki wanted to destroy Earth.", I frowned.

„My brother wants to be adored and loved because he has a feeling that he hasn't got a family any more ever since he found out that he was adopted. So, when he realised that he would never sit on the Asgardian throne, he decided to find a replacement, a world of his own, where people would love him as their only king and leader forever.", Thor sighed, „You see, Loki doesen't understand that Odin and I don't care about blood relations. No matter how much I try, I can't seem to bring him to reason.", his glance hardened, „He must be stopped.".

When I didn't know how to reply, he continued: „So... young Asgardian. Are you ready to finally meet your new team?".

I tried to smile: „I suppose so.". That was a lie. I didn't want to leave this place and it's calmness and walk back into that chaos. But, I had no choice. Loki sure wasn't sitting on a bench somewhere, relaxing, and if we wanted to catch him, we needed to act fast.

We left the serenity of the park behind us and I tried to calm myself down by listening to the nearest fountain. The sound of water always soothed me and made me feel better, even before I was given the title of it's Godess. I could see the sea, now, just a couple of miles away. And then, a loud scream pierced through the air, making me flinch.

Thor looked around, concerned, when a young lady jumped on him, her hands around his neck. I almost bursted into laughter when I saw the puzzled look on his face. He never saw this woman in his life.

„OH my God! Are you really... HIM?! You are the Thor!?", she screamed in his ear and I noticed that she was holding a torn piece of paper and a pen in her hand.

„Yes, it is me. Are thou in some kind of danger?", he asked in his serious tone.

The woman started to giggle pushing the pen in Thor's hands: „May I have your autograph, please!? My friends are never going to beleive me what just happened.".

„What is an autograph?", he asked, dead serious and I couldn't help but to wonder the same thing.

The woman started to laugh, thinking that her favourite Avenger must be kidding when a group of screaming teenagers and two kids ran towards Thor, all wanting a piece of him. He was trying to explain to his fans that he has to go, but the screams were too loud for them to hear. I rolled my eyes. The sea was calling me... so close. Yet, I couldn't leave Thor surrounded like this. Damn it.

„Hey, that's enough!", I yelled at them, and was happy to see a few heads turn in my direction, „Didn't you hear him? Thor has to go now.".

„Will you marry me, Thor!?", one of his teenage fans cried, ignoring me.

„Thou are a beautiful maiden, but my heart belongs to an another mortal.", he said and I saw a trace of a smile appearing in the corner of his lips. He was talking about Jane, of course. I wondered where that sweet lady is now. Probably in her lab, making exp -

And then I saw her.

A young girl was sitting on a bench near the sea, concentrating on a book. She removed a strand of auburn wavy hair from her face, and I noticed that she had her headphones on. But her face... she looked just like me.

She had my eyes, but with a little bit less blue in them, my smile, my red lips, my facial features... it was like looking at myself in the mirror. But, I would never wear mortal clothes. A green V neck sweatshirt, dark blue jeans and white sneakers made her look like a mortal, but her beauty was Asgardian, there was no doubt in that.

I came closer, blinking a few times, just to make sure that I'm not mistaken, but the image was the same every time I opened my eyes. She was like a twin sister of mine... but I didn't have one. Especially not on Earth.

Wait... isn't that one of Loki's powers? He used to make copies of himself, fooling his oponents into attacking his clones instead of him. Perhaps he learned how to duplicate others and he wanted to make a little joke on the newest Avengers recruit?

Well, he will learn that it isn't wise to pull tricks on an Asgardian. Rage was boiling inside of me, and I felt an comforting cool feeling in my hands. My powers were answering my call.

"Thor! Loki's here!", I warned him before I attacked my clone.
