She was falling. Her friends had lost this fight and she was going to Valhalla, where the fallen warriors go. The elves were the best fighters and she was one of the best ever. One minute she was defending her best friend and the next there was an arrow in her shoulder and she was already bleeding very bad. And then she lost consciousness. She felt herself being carried by someone strong and she also heard some worried voices, which sounded like her brother's voice, but she was too tired to open her eyes and check.
The next day she awoke with a start and jumped from her bed, but almost fell down, when her head started spinning badly and started to fall down. Strong arms wrapped around her waist and held her upright. She turned to look behind her and froze. There stood one of the handsomest men she had ever seen. He had blonde hair till his broad shoulders and blue eyes. He was muscular and tall. She knew from her brother's letters, that this was Thor, prince of Asgard and god of thunder. She guessed, that she must be in Asgard right now, so she stepped out of the strong embrace, curtsied to Thor and said:
"My prince, what am I doing here? I know I am in Asgard right now, but how did I get here? Are my brothers alright?"
Thor looked shocked, that the lady before him knew who he was. Her two brothers had told him about their little sister, who was also one of the best fighters that ever lived. He looked at her and saw, that she was beautiful, but all elves were beautiful. She had thick brown hair, that reached her knees, high cheek bones and beautiful green eyes. She also had the pointed ears, so he knew she was immortal. Then he bowed back and said:
"My lady, your brothers are defending Asgard right now. I do not know how you got here, but that saved your life."
The elleth thanked him and rose again to gather her weapons from a chair nearby. Thor looked at her in confusion and asked:
"My lady, what are you doing? You were injured and should not move much." What she said next, shocked him to the core of his powers. She said:
"I am going to join my brothers, my lord." She started to walk away, but fell down and lost consciousness again. Thor picked her up and laid her down on the bed in the healing ward.
She awoke several hours later, when there was a bustling near her bed. She opened her eyes and saw her eldest brother Kyle standing between her bed and the next to her right. She slowly stood up, because she remembered fainting before. Kyle turned to her and smiled a small smile at her, but then he turned to the bed and his smile faded. She slowly stood next to her brother and looked down. She froze.
On the bed laid her second older brother Mark. She saw, that he was starting to fade and knew, that he would die. She turned to look at Kyle and saw the sadness in his eyes. Then she was overcome with blinding rage at the creature who did this to her brother and her family. She could feel her wounds healing quickly because of her rage and knew, that she needed to go avenge her brother. But now he needed her to be with him and Kyle. She then pushed the nurse out of her way and sat next to her wounded brother, took his hand and started chanting. The lady knew, that this was the only way. If this did not help her brother, then he would die and nothing would help him. She felt Kyle take Mark's other arm and start chanting along with her. They sat there chanting for hours, but Mark was still slowly fading. When Kyle stopped, she still continued, refusing to give up on her older brother.
She felt eyes on her and with her senses could tell, that the king, the queen and both princes were watching her with sad eyes , but she refused to look at them. When she finally stopped chanting, she saw Mark smile at her and then close his eyes, for the last time. She did not cry, but kissed his forehead and then stood up. She saw Kyle starting to come to her and held up her hand. He understood and did not come to comfort her. She was always a warrior and only then a woman, so he understood her sadness and rage. But then she surprised everyone.
She went to the chair , where her weapons stood and took them all. She took her throwing daggers, two swords and a beautiful green bow with two quivers, full of arrows. Then she turned and started to walk to the door. She heard her brother say behind her:
-Helen, you cannot go and avenge him now. You were injured.
Helen turned to her brother and he stepped back, when he saw the fury and rage in her eyes and posture. She said:
-If you try to stop me, Kyle, you will lose and you know it. Remember, when you and Mark read my diary and then laughed at me? You remember what I would have done if mother had not found me? I will finish it this time , mark my words, if you try to stop me.
Kyle went deathly pale and started to back away from his enraged little sister. He remembered the occasion she spoke of. And he was very afraid. Now she just looked at him and started to go towards the door, when the princes and the king stood in front of the door. She was too enraged to care, but she needed to get away, so she turned and ran. She heard the queen scream, when she jumped out of the window and heard Thor summon Mjolnir and try to follow her, but she opened her white wings and started to fly. Her brother will explain everything to the royal family.
Back at the infirmary, Kyle was trying to hold back Thor and explain everything to the royal family. Finally succeeding in holding back Thor, he gestured for everyone to sit down and took a deep breath. Firstly he looked at the queen Frigga and said:
"Don't worry, my queen, about my sister. She can fly. Right now she would kill everyone who stood in her way of avenging Mark." The queen nodded and relaxed.
The king looked at Kyle and asked:
"Tell me , what did she do to you, that you were so afraid of her?" Kyle took another deep breath and answered:
"My king, when we were all children, we often teased Helen, because she was not like other girls. She wanted to be a warrior and even then she was skilled and gifted in everything. One day Mark and I wanted to prank her, but we found her diary and started to read. When she came back, she was so enraged, that we were really scared. She held both of us, when we tried to run and then she…" Kyle took another deep breath and continued :"she tried to castrate us and she almost succeeded, but mother caught her and she was punished." The royal family was shocked , that a girl could do that to her brothers and that she was so strong. The princes were laughing quietly in their minds about the almost castration, but then they both became serious and turned to Kyle. Loki asked:
"If she is this angry, what will she do now?" Kyle looked at him and looked down, but still answered the youngest prince:
"She will kill them all." At hearing this, Thor and Loki stood and went after her, but were stopped by Kyle's words:
"Don't go. She will kill everyone, who tries to stop her. Don't forget, that she is one of the best." They could see Kyle's worry about his sister, but he knew her. So they all waited. The queen was worried about the girl, even if she is very good. There were so many of them. She could not sit still, so she stood up and paced. Odin was also worried, because he knew her family and he liked the girl. He could tell , that Helen will be a very good friend to his sons and other warriors.
When she left, the nurses took Mark's body to prepare him for burial. She was flying and now she allowed herself to cry for her brother and family. She was also in so much rage! She spotted the enemy, the dark elves and started to follow them. She knew no one was following her and was grateful for this. She needed to avenge her brother.
When the dark elves stopped for the night, Helen flew down in the middle of their camp and started to kill them all. Once or twice she was injured, but she could not care less. The only thing on her mind was avenging her brother. She fought what felt like hours and finally won. She had killed about 30 dark elves all on her own, but that was no big deal to her. She had been training all her life. Now she was very exhausted, but knew, that she needed to get back to the palace and let her natural healing heal her slowly. So she started to slowly fly back to the palace, but her right wing was injured, so her progress was very slow. Finally she saw the palace and saw someone waving and shouting something to her, but she was too far away to hear and then she was falling. Her strength had given out.
Queen Frigga was looking out the window of the infirmary. Nobody had left or come in, except the nurses, when they took Mark's body away. Everyone was worried. It had been 5 hours. Then the queen saw something in the distance. When she recognized the wings and the hair, she screamed and waved. Everyone ran to the window and saw Helen. She was a bloody mess and was very weak, even if she was still flying. When they saw her start to fall, they all almost jumped out of the window to get her, but she was too far away. Then Thor summoned Mjolnir and jumped out of the window and flew towards to falling girl. When he finally caught her in his strong arms, he saw that her wing was injured and she herself was a bloody mess, so he quickly flew towards the infirmary window and then gave the girl to her brother, who laid her down on the bed she had previously slept and started to chant something.
Everyone else stood watching and could see and hear the worry in Kyle's voice and pose. He had just lost one brother and they knew, that he did not want to lose Helen. The royal family didn't want to lose her as well. When Kyle stopped chanting and turned with a tired smile on his lips, the family relaxed. They understood, that everything will be alright now.
Kyle said:
"She has a broken left wrist, right leg and her left wing is also injured. She has cuts and bruises. I managed to stop internal bleeding in her stomach, so she will be fine." Then he turned to Thor and thanked him for saving his sister.
The royal family members were shocked, that the girl before them was so injured, but still could fly back to them after the fight. Kyle said to them:
"She has had worse, trust me. But she avenged Mark." The royals were again surprised. They looked down at the girl and could see her strength. She was truly one of a kind.
