A/N: This is my second fan fic. I was going about my day when a muse hit me. It was like the voices were speaking in my head.(No I'm not crazy!) I always wondered if all the higher beings got together how would it be? What would happen? Then I thought why is Sookie such a special being to everyone she meets? Then TWD was born. PLease read AND review. Let me know what you think. Plot bunnies are always welcomed ;) This is also unbeta'd so mistakes are mine. If you would like to help me beta then please PM me, many thanks to those who would love to help.

Charlaine Harris is the mistress of this realm I am only but a humble servant taking her children out to play.

REVIEWS ARE LOVE! and the Queen is a greedy lady! ;) Until next time...


Prince Niall sat on the cloud looking down on the humans as they muddled around trying to control their lives. When will they learn to just accept fate and live?, he thought. Just then a breeze swept across his face and a noticeable light shined down upon him.

"Hello old friend. Still watching the humans I see?" said the ancient voice.

"You are one to call old Michael. I believe your reign extends my time", he chuckled at his old acquaintance.

"You are quite right Niall". Michael stated as he folded his black wings behind himself. "It is time Niall. We should have ended this a long time ago but now we must resort to other factions." Michael spoke grimly.

Niall sat motionless as he continued to peer down at the humans. "Are you sure Odin is true to his word? How do we know this plan will work?" Prince Niall did not want to put his kin in danger again but he knew that there was no other way. This is why he probed at Odin's intentions to see if he could get out of the ordeal.

"Niall...Odin has been true to his word for over a millenium now. The beast is growing in number and advancing in dark magic. If we do not put the wheels in motion now we may all pay the price." Michael looked at Niall intently. He did not want to put his kin in harm neither but his God was right and he had to do what was told of him.

Michael put his golden hand on the Fairy and spoke in a soft but powerful voice, "You will send him today and I will make sure that she is ready. He will not notice her spark for I have hidden it fairly well until it shall happen. Then it will protect her until it is time. There is no way around it. This child will be our only hope and Odin's kin will help wield the sword to tame the beast once more."

Niall looked up at Michael and nodded. Niall's long silver hair blew gently into the breeze as he contemplated his next moves.

"She will be hurt in this ordeal, Michael. Our kin will suffer long and hard and Odin's kin may perish after the deed is complete. All for what? These humans?" Niall snorted with distaste.

Michaels' eyes burned with the blue intensity of God's fury. "These humans are our only hope! I would think you of all people would want to keep them safe seeing that you use to be in love with one! If the beast wins this battle, Niall, he will steal all of their souls...devour all of your people's magic...and steal Odin's immortality! Then we will all be doomed. Is that what you truly want to happen?" Michaels' wings started to unfurl with each exclamation.

Niall turned his backto Michael. How could he ever forget his sweet woman? Her smile like the sun. Her blonde hair as crisp as the wheat grass and her heart as big and deep as the sea. When the beast destroyed her it destroyed a piece of him and he vowed vengeance over it. He just didn't know it would cause him his kin.

Niall turned back towards Michael and looked him in the eyes. "You will protect her Michael, when I cannot. I will talk to Odin and Freya to make sure they protect her too. I will not let her die! I do not care what your God or Odin's wyrd has set out for them. I will protect them!" Niall's body started to glow in a green tint. He knew he needed to control his emotions but this was too sudden for him even if it was a millennia or so ago.

Michael glared back at Niall. "She will do what she must. She will be well enough to bring the answer into her world, and then she will fulfill her destiny!" His tone spoke finality.

Niall knew there was nothing more he could do but do what he promised. He straightened his shoulders, lifted his head and spoke vehemently to Michael, "Tell Odin that his boy better be magnificent like his word or I will annihilate him! I know of him in this world and am pleased with what he has made for himself. However I also know of his...reputation."

Michael chuckled lightly. "My fairy friend you worry too much. Her humanity will set him to rights. Just you wait and see and his power will help bring out her own."

Niall grunted then smoothed out his robe. "I hope for all our sakes you are right Michael."

"Fairy, am I not always right?" Michael quirked his eyebrow up in amusement.

Niall laughed heartedly. He held out his long hand and Michael clasped his arm.

"Until we meet again, Lord Michael." Niall said.

"Until we meet again, Prince Niall." And with that Michael looked up and ascended into the sun lit sky. Niall stood there for a moment until he composed himself to return to his realm. Then he 'poofed' into his son's chamber and smiled at him.

"Looking at that woman still I see?" Niall nodded to the round portal bowel that Fintan held in his hands. Fintan was watching a beautiful human woman hanging her clothes out to dry. Fintan has been watching this woman for a while now ever since her husband left for a human war.

With a sigh Fintan answered his father, "Yes father, I am still watching her. She is beautiful is she not? I know you told me not to go near her so I continue to watch her this way." Fintan nodded at the portal bowel.

Niall closed his eyes briefly as he spoke his next words, "Maybe you should go introduce yourself, my son. I do not see any harm in doing so. As long as you hide your… otherly features. You are still half human so I do not see the harm."

Fintan's green eyes lit up. "Are you permitting me to see her father? Are you sure this is acceptable?" Fintan could not control his excitement. It permeated through his entire being as his green glow engulfed his gracious form.

Niall smiled slightly remembering how it felt when he first seen his lady, Marigold, near the pond. He remembered watching her from the trees. Admiring her sun kissed skin and beautiful laugh. The memory sent chills up his spine.

"It will be quite acceptable my son. I am the Prince after all; I can change some of the rules in my favor. Now go son before another suitor tries to get acquainted with her."

Fintan stood quickly and looked down at his father's form with a smile. "Father, you know no one could resist the Brigant's charm." Then he poofed out of the room.

Fintan slowly walked over to where the young maiden was hanging her sheets. He could smell her sweet lavender scent from where he stood. As she turned around she gasped at his sight. Startled she clutched her bosom and a beautiful blush filled her cheeks.

"I'm sorry if I have startled you.", Fintan stated. "I was just walking through the fields and had to say hello. My name is Fintan."

The young women appraised Fintan taking in his olive skin and silver hair that brushed his shoulders. He wore white knit pants and an emerald green shirt that matched his tantalizing eyes. His lips were turned up into a magnificent smile that she thought would ultimately blind her.

Oh sweet Jesus! He is so handsome, she thought. I must mind my matters and return his gesture. My mother taught me better than that!

"Well hello kind sir. My name is Adele...Adele Stackhouse. It is a pleasure to have your acquaintance.", she smiled sweetly at her new stranger.

Fintan stared at her. She is so beautiful...so humble and there something about her it's like she glowing. It's her eyes...something about those darling blue eyes, he thought. "The pleasure is surely all mines." He said as he bowed slightly just inclining his head. As he looked back up at her he winked and a soft giggle erupted out of her throat.

Niall looked on as his son introduced himself. Is é seo ach an tús , he thought and disappeared into the vast trees.


*Is é seo ach an tús- This is only the beginning.
