Princess of Death 30
Between Life and Death
A Mothers vengeance
Unknown location
Haralda awoke with a groan the pain of falling from the Palace was a pain… Wait a minute? Where the hell was, she.
"You are in a world between life and Death young Princess." Came a voice from behind her, flipping off the bed she went to draw her blades only to see they were gone, by Odin she wasn't even in armour just a plane set of clothes.
That's when she noticed a few important things one her neckless was missing as was her wound from being stabbed just a small line. The main one however was standing before her was King Bor her Great Grandfather and the Former king of Asgard.
"What in Helheim frozen depths is this?" She's asked to herself, well that's what Haralda thought happened, until her great grandfather started laughing.
"You are in a realm between Life and Death my Dear, well you are indeed alive, your body is currently in the healing rooms of Asgard your consciousness however is within this realm."
"As to why is simple you have done even what my son could not you have cheated the fates your thread has been lost to them the moment you took that Blade for your grandmother."
"Your blood mixed with the eternal flame and heart of Asgard but most importantly with that neckless that hung around your neck." Seeing her eyes widen in shock her hand moving towards where her neckless should have been he gave her a sad smile.
"So, I am free of my fate and yet will still be tied to the fate of others is that it." Haralda asked him her tone lashed with anger, she was happy to be truly free of whatever her fate was too be but it seemed the fates still held some control over her…. or so she thought.
"No, they don't Haralda, you are free to make your own choices. You could sit back and watch the universe fall to chaos and ruin, but I have a feeling that you have too much of your fathers Gryffindor genes in you."
The two Asgardian's both living and dead would talk about here new abilities and power levels before she would awake in the healing rooms only after the battle in London had started.
Asgard Throne Room
1 hour after the funerals
"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN WE WONT FUCKING GO AFTER THEM!" Hela raged her full power on display as the palace literally shook. The Goddess of Death was fuming with rage how dare her father refuse to go after the vermin who attacked Asgard killed many of their soldiers and citizens but most importantly nearly killed her daughter.
Before Odin could say a word Hela summoned up her necro blades causing the guards Thor and Loki to tense, James however stood by his wife his spear aimed towards his brothers, he too wanted to get revenge for his little girl.
"If the King of Asgard is too cowardly to destroy his enemies it will be up to Helheim to do it for him." Spinning on her heal she left the throne room James following behind her it didn't matter that the Bifrost was shut down when you're the Goddess of Death you can travel anywhere including to the Dark world.
Hela's Palace
Helheim
Standing before her gathered Draugr warriors with James standing next to her serving as her General he would fight alongside his wife and avenge his daughter who according to Frigga was still asleep.
Hela however was not really paying attention she wanted blood, she would eliminate the Dark Elves like her grandfather should have no one went after her family, no doubt Odin would believe she was going back to her old ways and try to contain her in Helheim or separate her from James and Haralda to punish her.
She couldn't care less at the moment she would deal with the Elves first then if needed she would deal with her father.
Asgard
Random Tavern
Thor Loki and Jane sat with Heimdall who had no duty at this point with the Bifrost shutdown the warriors 3 and lady Sif soon joined them Sif arrived a little later as she had taken to checking on Haralda to see if there was any change in her little sisters condition.
"The Allfather in very angry he will demand Miss Foster be confined to quarters; I would recommend you make your way to the dark world via the old paths." Heimdall told them while giving Loki a knowing look.
Sif stood saying she would stay and watch over Haralda and if needed provide a distraction, the warriors 3 agreed to this plan they would distract the Einherjar allowing the Princes and Jane to escape.
Between Life and Death
King Bor looked down at his Great Granddaughter she had a look of anger but also disappointment, and it wasn't directed at her uncles or his friends but her grandfather. "Why does Grandfather hold back with Asgard and Helheim combined strength he could crush the last of the Dark Elves."
Placing a hand on her shoulder he gave her a gentle squeeze. "The Elves possessed technology that shrouded them from our site even Heimdall could not see them until they were right on top of us, he doesn't was to risk sending the army away from Asgard."
Understanding his position now Haralda realised she would most likely be of the same mind If she was Odin's age, it was risky but it also meant Asgard was secure.
Both she and Bor watched Thor's escape attempt clearly parts of it were Loki's idea seeing the statue of Bor get decapitated was funny for Haralda a anyway. Bor just grumbled about ungrateful grandchildren.
The Dark World
"Well, I can safely say I didn't expect this". Loki said slid shocked at the site before them dozens of Hela's warriors preforming Blood Eagles on screaming Dark elves overseen by James the man's face said everything, this man had no mercy when it came to those that nearly killed his only child.
"It's quite simple Elf, tell me where your leader has fled and I'll make it quick." James said calmly as he held one prisoner by the neck, only to be spat and cursed at by the stupidly stubborn elf. It didn't bother James however he just grinned have it your way then elf, same punishment for this one."
Turning to see the two princes and the mortal James bowed. "Your sister is just on the ridge, follow me but be warned she's not in a good mood."
"Really I wouldn't have guessed." Loki said with a sarcastic drawl as a dark elf corpse came flying past them the corpse embedded with Necroblade.
As they made their way up the hill passing more of Hela's warriors both Thor and Loki could feel the cold aura of their sister grow stronger.
Seeing their sister her white eyes burned with unbridled fury that even Thor felt a feeling of fear. "Well, well, look at this. The God of Thunder and the God of Mischief, along with your mortal plaything, what's the matter have you come at the request of the Allfather to tell me I've gone too far."
"Hela, we came here on our own accord to stop Malekith, it's the only way to keep Jane safe." Thor told his sister, upon seeing his sister wisp her head around to his direction her eyes burning with anger.
"Oh of course, never mind Asgard was attacked aided by the criminals in ordered not to be killed, or the fact my daughter, your own niece is effectively in a coma after saving your mother from being butchered."
Hella points one of her blades towards Jane, "it's all about your little mortal plaything, who claims to be a woman of science decided it was a brilliant idea to touch a mysterious and possibly dangerous object she found that even now isn't killing her because my child saved her."
Jane went for a walk in an effort to cool the tension between Thor and Hela walking past some of the Draugr who spoke to each other in a language she didn't understand, what she didn't tell the Asgardian's is that what Haralda had done to control the Aether was breaking down fast.
As she made her way towards a cave just beyond where the Draugr were located to try and calm down with Hela in her current state if she said that her daughter's spell was failing, she might kill her on principle, she didn't see the figure standing in the shadows till she was slammed into the cave wall.
Malekith smiled as he drained the Aether from this pathetic mortal. "Finally, you are mine foolish human." The Aether started to leave Janes body towards the Elf who grinned as he felt the power of the Aether as it began to enter his body.
"The Goddess of Death launching a full-scale invasion of my home and butchering the majority of my followers was an event I foolishly didn't plan for, then again I didn't expect her daughter to sacrifice herself to save the queen of Asgard."
And just like that the Aether was completely drained from Jane, he was about to kill her when a bolt of lightning struck him.
Thor, Loki, Hela and James turned up with a group of Draugr after sensing a living being that wasn't one of them. Seeing the group against him Malekith just smiled while slightly nodding his head towards Hela. "I'm afraid your too late Asgardian's I already have what I need."
Using the Aethers power, he sent and energy blast knocking James and the Draugr 20 feet back while knocking Thor and Loki to the ground, however he saw Hela had only been moved back a couple of inches.
"You and your beasts attacked my daughter; I will have my pound of flesh." Hela's necro blades appeared in her hands covered in green flames. "Actually, ill take the whole corpse, starting with your head!
The Goddess of Death charged forward blades swingling towards Malekith letting loses bolts of green fames forcing the Dark Elf on the defensive, despite possessing the Aether and its power parts of Haralda's spell were still holding back a decent portion of the Aethers power.
Realising he wouldn't stand a chance here he smashed one of the cave walls distracting Hela enough to flee but to where Hela didn't know.
Well until Jane found her car keys in the cave the group of Asgardian gods and warrior, warriors of Helheim and a Midgardian scientist arrived in London England.
