A/N: I do not own Thor or any of the other Marvel Characters mentioned in the Story. I do own the OC characters mentioned. One of them is loosely based off a video game character that is my favorite. Not a complete copy but I have based it off of the story since it can tie into this universe. Enjoy!

Chapter 1: Plunging Maidens Cause Turmoil

Heimdall's eyes squinted in order to gaze into the Asgardian sky. At first he confused it with a bird that was plunging to get its prey. He willed his eyes to focus on the object in order to distinguish whether or not it was a threat to the realm and more importantly, the palace.

Heimdall, what is it that you see?" he heard a familiar voice question him. He turned around to see the eldest prince looking at him intently,

"I see something falling towards Asgard and it doesn't look like any bird I have seen..." Before he could finish his sentence Thor had spun Mjölnir, his beloved hammer, and threw himself into the air. He bolted towards the object and realized that it was covered in a very bright light that blinded him. After his eyes adjusted to the light he gasped. It was no dangerous object; it was an unconscious woman plunging to the ground below. He flew towards her once more and without hesitation took her within his arms and slowly lowered himself to the ground to make sure not to stir her. He looked at the woman who lay motionless in his arms. She was quite beautiful. She had back length grey almost white hair and a beautiful pale complexion. She was slender but muscular. Her head piece was magnificent as it was Silver plated with feathers sticking out from the back like small fans. He couldn't stop looking at her almost as if he were in a trance. As if jarred from a daydream he walked quickly to the palace to get the attention of the healers.

The God of Mischief and Lies Loki was walking towards the throne room when suddenly the doors behind him opened and he saw his older brother Thor briskly running to the throne room. He spotted Loki and shouted,

"Loki, seek a healer this woman is in need of help!" Without hesitating Loki ran to the hospital wing and searched for a healer. He couldn't stop thinking about the woman in his brother's arms and how beautiful she was. He hoped that the woman would at least make it so that he could get to know her better. Loki located one of the healers and motioned for him to follow him,

"You are needed in the throne room; my brother has found a wounded maiden." The two ran to the throne room where the Odin, Frigga and Thor all surrounded the woman who lay on the floor in front of the throne. Frigga, being the maternal woman, was whispering comforting words to the unconscious maiden,

"Fear not child, for you will be well." She stroked the young woman's hair. Odin look of concern marred his face as he turn to look at Thor,

"You say, she fell from the sky and was coming toward the ground?" Thor nodded,

"Yes Father, I do not know why or how but Heimdall was the first to warn me, I merely intervened to make sure that she was not harmed any further." The Asgardian King felt a pang of dread,

"I must speak to Heimdall. Frigga, attend to the maiden and make sure that she is not alone when she awakens." The Asgardian Queen nodded as she continued to hum comforting songs to the maiden."

Loki and Thor could not help but watch as the healer muttered incantations and spells in order to help the maiden. A green light enveloped her body as the magic began its work and after what seemed like hours the healer turned to Frigga,

"Your Highness, although she was unharmed on the outside, her soul is gone. I have done the best that I can. But it is futile. It is best to prepare funeral arrangements." The queen thanked him and he bowed to mark his leave. Thor and Loki watched him leave and when they caught his eye he bowed to them as well. When the healer was gone Frigga continued watch over her until she saw her children come to her. She smiled at the maiden's form and sighed,

"She is quite beautiful. From her clothing and head piece she seems to be Aesir. Such a shame..." Thor and Loki's eyebrows raised in shock,

"I heard Aesir women were beautiful, but I merely thought that they were exaggerations." Thor quipped,

"As did I. Well too bad we will never know how Aesir women are in person." Thor nodded,

"Indeed. What a waste of beauty… Well, I must take her to the undertakers and prepare for the burial" He began to walk towards the maiden to pick up the body when the palace suddenly began to vibrate as the body of the woman lifted up into the air and enveloped it in the same bright light that Thor first saw her in. The three royals backed up in surprise. Suddenly a hard encasement of crystal surrounded her. The encasement then started glowing bright once more. Thor approached the encased woman and stuck his hand out to touch her,

"Brother that is not advisable! It is strong magic!" Loki cried out. As soon as he got too close the barrier fired an energy blast that hurled him backwards into the palace walls." Frigga and Loki ran towards him to check on him. The three looked up as they saw the crystal barrier with the maiden inside slowly sink into the floor disappearing from sight,

"What in Valhalla's name?" Thor murmured.

Heimdall bowed at Odin who approached him. He knew that Odin would be coming to speak to him. It was only natural since it's very rare for someone to fall from the sky, especially in Asgard,

"Heimdall, Thor told me that you saw the woman fall from the sky." The Guardian of the Realms nodded his head,

"He speaks the truth Highness, once I told him; He flew off to save her. Is she well?"

"The healer is working on her now." Suddenly the door flew open revealing Thor, Loki and Frigga. They all had a look of bewilderment and confusion on their face. "Odin turned to face them as both he and Heimdall looked at the three royals. Odin was the first to speak,

"What has happened?" Loki began,

"Father, the healer ran some tests on the woman and it was found that she was physically well but her soul was gone…" Thor cut in,

"He told us to prepare her for burial but as soon as I went to her the bright light I found her falling with encased her in a crystal barrier and started glowing again. When I reached out to touch her it sent me flying and then it disappeared!" Odin turned around once more to Heimdall,

"Is this going to be a threat to Asgard?" Heimdall stared out the window and thought for a long moment,

"I'm…not sure Highness…" Odin looked perplexed. He then started shouting out orders,

"Guards! Find the crystal with the woman in it. If you see it, destroy it!" There was a flurry of moment as the guards began shouting and moving around the castle hoping to find the crystal encasement with the maiden.
