Light danced across my eyelids, waking me to the harshness of reality. "Close the shades Viv." I mumbled, my voice coming out soft, and a higher pitch than it was during the day. And then sudden, I noticed an alarming fact. I wasn't in my bed. The surface I was laying on was cold, in contrast to my flannel sheets. Pushing myself into a sitting position and opening my eyes, I gasped. I was laying on a round marble floor, surrounded by large white pillars. Every way I turned I could only see blue sky, and looking down I saw hieroglyphs scattered on the floor.

Alright.

I told myself.

There are three explanations here. One, I died. Two, I was in the beginning of a YA novel or fanfiction. Three, all the above. If two or three is true, I hope is a rewrite.

A clap of thunder shook me, as I noticed that the sky was becoming gloomy and the clouds were starting to cry. If life couldn't get any weirder, the floor started to disappear. Large chunks, just breaking off and disappearing to who knows where. Then I realized, I am standing on the floor. If the floor goes to who knows where. Then where do I go? And then I started to fall.

Nowhere, I go no where. Just floating off into what looks like space, I mean, it looks like all the pictures of space I have seen. Darkness as far as the eye can see, little balls of light, a single person floating for hours.

Maybe it was good the floor disappeared, I won't have to go to work in the morning! Then again the floor disappearing left me stranded in the darkness, and without any way to tell time. Or any way of getting out.

How ever long I floated in the stars, I have no idea. Minutes, hours, days, maybe years. Then at last, tendrils of sleep floated into my brain, and I gave in to the sweet release of sleep.

Line Break

Catherine Sierra Amelia Fenicanima

That was the first thing that came to me. Which, that's my name, so it is a good thing I remembered it. Somehow I had ended up standing, and that wasn't the weird part. I was standing at the end of a long hallway, and turning around I saw the hallway twisted out of sight. Pivoting back around I saw a number of faces, all showing a range emotions at my sudden appearance. All I could do was whisper to myself "What?!" and wish I was wearing anything but my stupid pink pajamas. Then with an odd sense of Deja vu I felt the floor beneath me start to disappear. Like when you stand in the water at the beach and the tide starts to pull the sand out from underneath you.

I thought I would end up in the darkness again. Even after what had just happened I would have never guessed what happened next. Alright well me falling to the ground I knew would happen, but I wouldn't have guessed who helped me up. "Are you alright fair maiden? I am Loki Odinson, of Asgard.(4)

Loki was still holding my hand. "Fair maiden?" Loki asked again.

No, No No No No No! What is happening?! HOW is this happening. But I was just, with the, floor falling, and... this better be a rewrite!"

Where did you get that necklace?" Loki asked, Interrupting my inner monolog. "I found it, it was a gift for my birthday " My voice was soft, like when I first wake up. I couldn't talk to strangers that well anyways.

"Forgive my manners, what is your name?" Loki asked, his voice becoming soft, like silk.

"Ren, of Seattle." Dang it, my voice still wasn't working.

"Ren, what a beautiful name, for a beautiful maiden."

It was all I could do to not turn the same color as a tomato. "I apologize for being so sudden, the crystal on your chain looks to be the same as an ancient Asgardian relic. Lost in the war."

Loki's voice started to fade away as the pounding in my head got louder. I lost track of what was happening until I was laying on a soft bed in what looked like a healing room. "Now how did I get here?" I asked aloud, thinking I was alone in the room.

"Prince Loki brought you." A timid voice answered from the corner. Looking over I found there was a young girl seated on a stool.

"And where is he now?" I asked kindly.

The girl just gave a small shake of her head and pointedly looked at the wall opposite of herself. Following the girls eyes I found that Loki standing in the doorway, and he was not alone. The girl stood hastily, bowed to the two in the door way and left into what looked like the healers quarters.

I swung my legs around to the side of the bed, and Loki gave me an excited smirk and the woman came to sit beside me. "I am Lady Frigga. And you are?" Lady Frigga stated and then asked. "My name is Ren." Yes Ren, please do irritate one of your favorite characters of all time. "And how did you come to be on Asgard." Lady Frigga asked. "I-I am not quite sure." My answer came tumbling out of my mouth.

Crap. Do I add a Ma'am? Or My lady? What if I am supposed to say her entire name?! What happens if I am supposed to say her name. Will they throw me off the Bifrost? Wait. Would they even let me stay on Asgard anyways?

Lady Frigga somehow sensed my distress, and reassured me that I was welcome to stay on Asgard, and remain with the family. With only one term, that I never under any circumstance, take off my necklace. Because the crystal was an important part of the war fought long ago. It was the reason the war started.

After Lady Frigga left, the young girl returned and gave me new 'garments' and by that I mean she made me wear a dress. "What is your name?" I asked in a gentle tone. Hoping I wouldn't scare the skittish looking girl. "Nome, daughter of Cognome." Nome's voice was like a bird song, quiet and unnoticed unless you were listening. "Thank you, Nome. For the dress, and telling me it was on backwards." Nome giggled. "Prince Loki is waiting for you outside." And with that final statement Nome faded back into the corner.

"Ran? Fair maiden?" A booming voice called from outside the door. Exiting the healing room and looking to my right I found Loki and Thor waiting. Thor took two large steps towards me and swept me into a bear hug. "You were right Brother, she is a beautiful maiden!" Thor exclaimed as he squeezed me tighter. "Yes of course I am correct, and if you will stop crushing Ren we will be able to begin a grand tour." Loki's reply came slow. "Of course, we must show you the wonders of the palace!" Thor exclaimed as he finally let go of me. "Wh-Where shall we start?" I managed to wheeze out. "How about the gardens?" Loki suggested, "A good place to catch your breath." And then came what I already decided was the patented Loki smirk. "Shall we?" Loki asked and gestured behind himself. "Yes! Brother we shall!" Thor boomed and started to lead the way. Loki just gave me a look and gestured again for me to follow. Loki and I fell instep as Thor lead the way, pointing out statues, lamps, and the occasional person.

At the end of the day, I had realized something. Someone else leading the way, and making sure I was cared for. Before I was just my own one woman band.
