I found myself been pulled along by Frigga, back to my room. I'd gone into such a depressed state over the past two days that I'd started to black out. I had a complete lack of energy. Frigga found me at the top of the stairs of the Hall of Asgard, crying. With Thor still down on Mitgard and after what Loki had done to me, what would you expect? I stumbled into my bedroom with Frigga by my side. I then saw the Allfather stood before me. What was he doing in my room? I felt my legs start to give and I fell to my knees. Frigga shot to my side, kneeling beside. I let more tears fall. I sobbed into Frigga's shoulder. She stood before Odin and cleared her throat.
"Look at her Odin. Look what sending our son to a distant realm has done to her!" she shouted. I looked up at her to see her own tears falling from her checks. The Allfather sighed.
"I never thought what would happen to her over time, she looks broken" he spoke softly. I felt him place a tentative hand on my shoulder. I sighed.
"They have no idea" I thought to myself. Frigga wrapped her arms around me.
"Odin, give her what we agreed on" Frigga whispered. I looked up at her with confused eyes. I looked toward the Allfather in wonder. He held a potion bottle with a red liquid. I stood shakily and paced towards him.
"I don't think this is such a good idea" Odin interjected. Frigga took the bottle from him.
"Look at her, she needs this" Frigga sighed. She handed the bottle to me
"Drink this" she whispered. I looked at the red liquid.
"What will it do" I spoke, a rough edge to my voice. Frigga looked at me and smiled.
"Drink it and you'll see." She giggled lightly. I took the top off and looked down the top. It smelt like fruit. I carefully brought it to my lips and drank it slowly until it was all gone. I gave Odin the bottle back as Frigga hurried me to the bed. She laid me down on my stomach.
"Don't roll over" She smiled painfully at me. What was going on? I then felt something stab at my back. I cried out in agony. Odin held Frigga back when she reached out for me. I cried out as it stabbed at me again. I grabbed at the bed sheets for support. Had the Allfather poisoned me? This all seemed like a nightmare… but it wasn't. It felt like my back was been ripped apart by wild, savage creature. I screamed as it tore at my back one more. I saw Frigga break free of the Allfather hold and run towards me.
"Emi… Emi…. Listen to me; everything's going to be fine. I promise. You just need to sit this out." She sobbed. I cried out again as I felt something tear out of my back. I wished everything was going to be fine. I ripped into the pillows making the downy feathers spread over the bed. I screamed eventually blacking out .
I woke the next morning face down on my bed. I rubbed my eyes. The energy I'd lost over the past days had returned. My pillow was covered in feathers. My attention was brought to abnormally large feather. I grabbed it.
"this looks too big to be in a pillow" I thought. I placed the feather and stretched involuntarily. I paused. Something on my back seemed to stretch too. I slowly looked behind me to see feathers. I jumped out of my bed to see the sheets where coated in blood and more feathers. There where feathers everywhere! What in the name of Odin had gone on here? I ran to the large mirror in my room., grabbing the large feather. I couldn't believe what I saw. Wings.
"What?" I spoke softly. I moved around to see the wings moving after me. I looked at the large feather in my hand and slowly placed it near the ones on my wings. It was one of my feathers. I dropped it in shock. I'd always dreamed of having wings but I thought it was impossible. I then noticed that I was completely naked. I looked back at the bed to see the shreds of my old cloths. I only had the bandages around my legs.
"Wings as bandages, now that's a good look" I thought, sarcastically to myself I ran to the wardrobe to look thought my cloths only to see that they had vanished. I saw a pair of underwear and rushed to put them on. I then ran toward the bathroom and grabbed a towel. I wrapped it around myself hissing at the contact on my back. I walked back into my room to see the bed sheets been changed and Odin, Frigga and Loki stood in my room. Frigga turned to face me. I saw Loki pick up the feather I'd dropped earlier.
"Emi!" Frigga shouted with joy. She ran to hug me.
"Sorry for my nudity, all my cloths had gone" I sighed. She smiled at me. She turned to Loki and Odin.
"Outside please, she needs to get dressed" Frigga said as she hurried them outside as well as the servants. Loki's eyes never leaving me. Frigga shut the door and rushed back to me. I looked at her confuse.
"Frigga, I don't know if you know this but I have WINGS!" I shouted. She just smiled at me.
"You look beautiful" she whispered as she ran her fingers thought the feathers.
"Frigga, what happened?" I questioned. She paced towards the bed, ushering me to follow. I tightened the towel around me and sat beside her.
"Emi, do you remember that liquid we gave you to drink last night?" she questioned. I nodded lightly.
"It was a Pegasus Potion, there extremely rare. It gives the person who drinks the liquid fully working wings" she smiled lightly. I looked confused.
"But what about the pain? It was agony" I sighed. Frigga looked at me with kind eyes.
"If we told you it hurt, would you have taken it?" she questioned. She had a point "Why give it to me?" I sighed, looking at the floor.
"Thor told us how much you wanted wings, we though since now you're apart of out family that we'd give you something to welcome you" she smiled.
I looked back at my wings; they'd given me my wish as a welcome present? I felt touched. I knock at the door snapped me out of my day dream. Frigga smiled.
"That will be your new cloths" she said rushing to the door.
"We had your old cloths modified so that they would fit around your wings" she spoke after bring the cloths back to the bed.
"She prepared for this?" I looked at the black dress laid out in front of me. Two holes in the back. Frigga smiled.
"I had this one specially made for you; I chose the colour and design. Her let me help you put it on" she ushered me to drop the towel and turn around. She passed me the dress so I could climb into it. She took over when it came to my wings, she undid some buttons around where there my wings where supposed to go. She clipped them around my wings and zipped up the back. I turned to look in the mirror. I saw that the dress flared off at my hips. It was quite short and it was heavily laired but I liked it. I smiled at Frigga.
"Thank you" I whispered lightly.
"No problem" Frigga smiled and began to walk away. I grabbed her arm and smiled.
"I mean for the wings, it's a dream come true" I began to well up as she wrapped her loving arms around me. As she pulled away the door opened and Loki and Odin entered again. Loki looked at me with warm eyes. I shivered. Odin smiled.
"You look beautiful Emi, have you tried to fly yet?" he questioned. I looked at my wings as I began to gain control of them.
"No but I want too" I said as I began to move them. After a short time my feet left the floor. I looked down and smiled. I rose higher. I then began to feel unstable and fell back to the floor, only just managing to land on my feet; I winced as my legs began to ache. I'd forgotten about my legs been still on the mend. Frigga looked at me worried.
"I guess a little flight training might be required" Loki suggested. I looked at him with cold eyes. Odin nodded.
"There's a Pegasus expert waiting in the arena Emi, we brought him in, in case this would arise, go see him. Loki go with her" Odin ordered as he walked out, Frigga hot on his heals. I sighed. It was just me and Loki now.
"I'm surprised you kept it to yourself" Loki smiled at me. I growled and pushed passed him, my wings hitting him in the face. I smiled at that. I then saw a pair of black heals Frigga must have left for me to wear. I rolled my eyes and slipped them on. Loki stayed by my side as I walked out of the room.
"Must you follow me?" I questioned. Loki paused.
"My father ordered me to go with you, I wouldn't go against him" he smiled. I huffed and walked ahead. I noticed that when I walked I was less clumsy and I seemed to sway more. I like it. I could feel Loki's eyes on me. I growled.
As I walked down the streets of Asgard, plenty of people stared at me. I could still sense Loki was still behind me. The men of Asgard seemed to give me the most attention. I shuck them off. I didn't walk straight to the arena; I needed some more moral support right now. I reached the door to the house I wanted and rapped on the door. I stood there, peoples gazes burning thought me. The door opened and Erik stood in the threshold. He looked me up and down with his mouth open.
"Long time no see" I smiles. I just looked at me.
"Shocked?" I asked. He nods. He turns back into the house.
"Going out!" he shouts into the house before he shuts the door behind him. He looks at Loki over my shoulder and then at me again. I pulled him along as I started to walk back to the arena.
"Emi… what happened?" he stuttered. I laughed lightly.
"Long story short, I drank a Pegasus Potion and now I have wings and im off to the arena to get the hang off them. The reason Loki is following me is because Odin ordered him too plus I don't really like been around him so that's why I came to get you." I began to run out of breath. Erik ran his fingers though the feathers; I closed my eyes at the contact. As we closed in on the arena I began to hear voices I recognised. I started to hurry to the centre where Sif, Fandral, Hogun and Volstagg where training...
