A:N: ATTENTION. This is a series. If you havent read Odd One Out, PLEASE read that before this...it would make a whole lot more sense :)
*** "Not your daughter, I'm the enemy. I am NOT Sjoran!" She said, storming out of the room.
"I'm sorry…I only wanted what was best for you." A single tear fell from Odin's eye. His only daughter was gone. ***
It's been about a week since I left my 'family' in Asgard…they don't even deserve to be called family. The only ones I truly have trust in are Thor and Loki. I didn't want to leave Asgard, but I had no choice. I didn't belong there; they led me to believe that I was one of them. I was the enemy…no…I am the enemy. Once I knew the truth I went to my rightful place, an abandoned cave in Jotunheim. I will be honest; I do miss Loki and Thor. But they knew…they knew the Allfather's secret, they could have told me.
My thoughts were interrupted by footsteps; I grabbed my dagger out of my bag and took cover behind a wall. I saw the shadow of two figures coming towards me. I closed my eyes, praying that I was in my true form. Suddenly, I was grabbed by the frost giant; he proceeded to throw me to the ground. The pain began to consume me, my entire body was screaming. I felt his cold hand grip my throat, his grip continued to tighten. He looked at me, eyes burning with rage. I felt weak, he was going to finish me…this much I knew. Maybe it was better this way.
The smaller frost giant ran over to us with concern in his eyes. "Stop, she's one of us!"
Throwing me to the ground, the larger frost giant scoffed. "Take her to the king…every damn time I'm about to kill them…"
Drifting in and out of consciousness I heard three voices, barely making out what they were saying. "Asgard….hidden…Frost giant…kill her…"
That's it…I'm dead. Well, it's been nice living. Bravely, I stood up locking my fire red eyes with the infamous King Laufey's. He looked at me for a few moments, like I was someone he knew.
"You do not fear me?" He asked.
I shook my head, I was terrified yes, but I wasn't about to let him know this.
"Brave girl…So tell me…why have you come to Jotunheim?" Laufey said.
"I thought I belonged in Asgard…but I know now that my rightful place is in Jotunheim." I said. "I beg of you my king, I am a great warrior…I can be of great use to you."
Laufey thought for a moment, this could be his chance…his chance to end everything. He could use her to destroy the Allfather once and for all. "What is your name child?" He asked.
"Sjo-… Skadi my king…My name is Skadi." I said. What am I doing…? This is definitely not going to end well.
The king's eyes grew wide when he heard my name. "What did you say your name was?" He said in disbelief.
"S-Skadi …my king…Is something wrong?" I asked, knowing something wasn't right.
"No…nothing…I will let you stay, but only if you do something for me." He said.
"Anything if it pleases you." I nodded excitedly.
Laufey smiled, he had finally done it. "I will let you stay if you destroy the Allfather." He said
My smile quickly faded, I had to kill the man who raised me? The man who could have left me in Jotunheim to die….but he didn't, he was the Allfather… a man with a good heart. But no…he planned to use me…
Reluctantly nodding my head, I responded. "Thank you for this gracious offer my king…I accept."
He smiled, dismissing me. I bowed and began to walk toward the door.
"Wait." His voice echoed throughout the chamber. Stopping in my tracks I turned to face him.
"One more thing, if you do not succeed this task; and the Allfather lives…You will return to Jotunheim…but you will die…a slow and painful death." He said. "Take this vial…Fill it with his blood…" He said handing me a vial shaped like an ice crystal.
I nodded, tying a string onto the neck of the vial. "Yes my king, I will return to you…I will not fail you!"
What am I doing…
A/N: Okay, I'm not 100% confident on this chapter. But the next few should be a bit more interesting... Review :)
