A/N: Just a little note, some people are asking me why I had Odette get raped, I will say again that later on in the story it will be explained but not until further chapters. Also, I am getting asked why I couldn't just have her tortured from the start; I wanted to capture the loss of innocence and that is what happened to Odette, she lost her innocence at an extremely young age and it changed her into the person I will have her become.
Chapter 13:
Asgard, A week after Odette's fourth birthday,
"Brother, are you well?" asked Thor. It has been one week, and Loki has been a mess grating on nearly everyone's nerves, and he seemed to be receding to his usual bad temper – a temper that had been deteriorating ever since Odette Arielle had entered his life.
"Do I look well, Thor," said Loki through gritted teeth, his hand tugging on a black lock of hair, "She said she would come after the ball, it has been a week!"
"She must not have control over her magic yet, Loki," said Thor soothingly, hoping that his words would calm his brother down.
"She was getting better," said Loki stubbornly, looking away from Thor's earnest blue eyes. He knew that he was probably overreacting and that Odette was tucked in her room trying to dream walk over to Asgard, but he couldn't help but worry over his Grænn gimsteinn.
Sighing and admitting defeat, Loki said, "You're probably right brother."
Smiling widely, Thor clapped Loki on his back and boomed in a hearty voice, "I am glad to have helped calm you brother. Come brother, the All-Father has requested our presence in the council room."
"Is everything alright?" Loki asked worriedly.
"I know not, come let us see the All-Father."
Together, the two prince brothers made their way to the throne room where Odin sat waiting for them patiently, but they could see that he had worry lines across his face and his posture was tense.
"My sons, I have ill-fated news to share. Jötunheim is planning to brew a war in Midgard, they mean to slaughter the humans left and right for revenge; they are growing bold ever since I took the Casket of Ancient Winters from their land," said Odin gravely.
Thor looked angered at the news, Loki however was furious; if the Jötuns hurt Odette he would obliterate them with his own two hands.
"What actions are being taken?" asked Loki in all seriousness.
"Are we to wage war on them?" asked Thor, a little too eagerly, making Loki roll his eyes and Odin to narrow his one eye at him in disapproval.
"I would like to avoid a war, Thor, not every solution comes in bloodshed when you become king my son. I want to end this in a peaceful way, without the loss of our people, and so I have placed Asgard on lockdown, no one can bid leave or entry, and I have ordered Heimdall to close the Bifröst," Odin informed them.
"That is good; that way everyone would be safe," said Loki, grateful that Odette would not be harmed. But that would mean she wouldn't be able to visit, as dream walking would be repelled from the lockdown spell cast by Odin's own brand of magic.
But Loki was willing to do anything for Odette's safety, and once there was peace again with Jötunheim, he would apologize profusely to the sweet, innocent little girl and do whatever he could to make up for the time lost.
He only hoped that her house-elf Daisy would take great care of her and cheers her up.
Little did Loki Odinson know, but his Grænn gimsteinnwould not be the same bubbly and happy little girl that he saw a week ago when he finally does see her.
Potter Manor, Two years after Odette's fourth birthday,
The main garden of Potter Manor was filled with the sound of children's laughter; there were a large group of children running around playing catch, there was another group of children flying a bit off the ground with their toy broomsticks and there were some children eating candy from the largely displayed buffet.
Their parents were all congregated around keeping an eye on their children with fond smiles on their faces while they spoke of work, or in some of the women's case, gossiped.
Inside the Manor, off to the side of the drawing room, there was a corner filled with many presents sent from all over Wizarding Britain as it was the Boy-Who-Lived's sixth birthday.
Yes, Charlus James Potter had just turned six, and his parents decided to make him another birthday in their Manor instead of another Ministry ball.
James Potter was laughing jovially with his best friend Remus Lupin about the latest broomstick that came out, and that he ordered it for his only son as an extra birthday present – after all his little boy, the savior of the Wizarding World, only turns six once and he had to have the best of the best.
Lily Potter was off to the side with her best friend Alice Longbottom as they both kept a wary eye on their children seeing as Charlus was a boisterous boy with a love for pranks, just like his father. Alice knew that her Neville would behave well and wouldn't need to be kept a careful eye on, her daughter however, Lucy Longbottom was only two years old and Frank worried too much over his little girl.
Charlus Potter was currently playing with his best friend Ronald Weasley and they were planning a prank on Neville Longbottom, who Charlus was always forced to play with. Just because Neville was his god-brother, it didn't mean that he liked him, as Neville was a polite young boy who didn't like pranks and causing too much trouble.
All the merriment and the sounds of joyful laughter of children and adults alike was more than enough in making anyone smile, that is anyone but a house-elf that stayed well-hidden from the guests, watching the party behind the large window of the Potter Library.
Yes, Daisy the house-elf had been depressed for two years now as it was the anniversary of her Little Mistress Oddie's disappearance.
Daisy recalled that night two years ago when her Little Mistress arrived in distress with her Master dragging her by her wrist into her bedroom, she recalled the loud crying and begging and her Master's voice yelling angrily about her being a traitor.
Five minutes after her Master left, Daisy popped into her Little Mistress's room looking for a little girl that would be crying on the ground or perhaps in her bed, but Daisy wasn't prepared to be staring into an empty room.
For one whole week Daisy searched high and low, every nook and cranny in Potter Manor for a four year old girl with vibrant red hair, but to no avail. None of the house elves would help her as the Little Mistress was her charge and therefore her responsibility as they all served to take care of the Lord Potter, Lady Potter and Little Master Potter. So it took a whole week for Daisy to be a hundred percent sure that the Little Mistress wasn't in fact hiding from her parents, but she was missing; gone.
Daisy hastened to inform the Lord and Lady Potter that their daughter was missing, but they didn't care. Lord Potter waved his hand in a nonchalant manner saying that she was just being dramatic because he shouted at her and punished her, keeping her grounded in her room. Lady Potter looked indifferent and ordered Daisy not to bother them anymore about the Little Mistress.
And so, two years had gone by with no word at all about the Little Mistress in the house. If Daisy didn't have any memories of her, and if she weren't her personal house-elf, then Daisy would have believed her to have never even existed.
Her name was never uttered in the house, the Lord and Lady Potter, and their son Charlus didn't seem to realize that there was another member of the family missing. They celebrated a huge party for his fifth birthday, not noticing that it was another little girl's birthday as well. They celebrated Christmas, Halloween and Easter with merriment, not a drop of sadness or regret on their faces.
The portraits of Charlus and Dorea Potter ignored their son, daughter-in-law and grandson like the plague. Disappointed and disgusted with their attitude towards their lovely granddaughter. They worried themselves sick over her disappearance, and they were glad that there was at least one person, even though it was a house-elf, that fretted over her.
Daisy was the only one to ever mourn Odette Arielle Potter's disappearance out of everyone in the Wizarding world.
Warren Manor, California, Two years after Odette's fourth birthday,
Sirius Black and Angelica Warren-Black took a portkey to America five months after the ball the Ministry had put together for the Boy-Who-Lived's fourth birthday.
They took Alexia to celebrate her first Christmas with the Warrens and that was when they found out that Angelica was once again pregnant.
Sirius transferred as an auror in the American Ministry of Magic until the birth of his son, Leo Black, and they spent an extra year there.
Sirius liked the Wizarding America, it was more peaceful and updated, and they prided themselves on working technology like the muggles into their world – unlike Britain. Sirius also decided that it would be best to keep his distance from the Potters for a while so that they wouldn't have a fall out in their friendship due to the way James and Lily were treating his goddaughter Odette.
Angelica agreed with her husband's decision, and she enjoyed spending time with her family in America. She would never forget how James Potter all but dragged her away from Rodolphus and Bellatrix Lestrange in the Ministry ball upon seeing her talking with them; it took Angelica a long time for her to be able to erase the look of terror that was displayed all over Odette's face when she saw James.
Angelica couldn't make a scene with James and Lily in front of all the important witches and wizards of Wizarding Britain, and so she had no choice but to watch James and Odette disappear through the fireplace.
The Blacks decided that it was best for Angelica to spend her first Christmas with the Warrens and the Krums in America, and it was best for Sirius and James' friendship to not fall apart, and so they disappeared for two years.
Sirius kept minimal contact with the Potters while he was in America, and the subject of Odette was never uttered; James all but demanded that they talk about anything but her and Sirius had no choice but to grudgingly acquiesce.
It was now Charlus and Odette Potter's fifth birthday, when Angelica found out that she was pregnant yet again, much to their joy, and they agreed that after the birth of their third child, it would be the last and they would move back to Britain.
Angelica knew that no matter their differences and their fights about Odette, Sirius did miss his best friends James and Remus, and Angelica couldn't bear to keep her husband apart from his home and the people he grew up with.
It would be another year until Sirius and Angelica Black took a portkey back to Britain with their three year old daughter Alexia, their two year old son Leo, and their newborn son Liam.
***THE FORGOTTEN POTTER***
In New York, in the bar Cheap Shot, there sat a group of three rowdy men laughing in loud, obnoxious tones about the wonderful screams of their new victims.
These three men enjoyed raping and torturing young girls, and one of them was a proud pedophile. After leaving their victims all bloody with torn clothes by the sidewalk or a dark alley, barely breathing and sometimes dead, they enjoyed making their way over to Cheap Shot for a few beers, relishing the screams and begging pleas of their victims, and comparing notes over who squealed louder.
On this particular night however, things took a different turn when all three of them noticed a gorgeous blonde sitting by the bar drinking a root beer.
She wore a tight red leather dress that fell to her thighs, showing every single curve, nicely-shaped breasts and a round ass. She had long blonde hair that fell to her waist, and when they saw her looking at her surroundings, they noticed the girl had cute features and sapphire eyes.
For the first time ever, the three men argued over her being their new victim, and since it was the first time they all wanted the same girl, they agreed that they would share her.
One of the men went over to her and spoke with as much charm as he could muster, and to the surprise of the other two, she began a fluent conversation with him, the bar getting filled with her laughter, her eyes gleaming as they continued talking and sharing jokes.
After the woman finished her root bear and placed money on the bar, the man offered her a lift to her apartment and she gladly agreed with a secret smile.
As the two of them left the bar, his two companions hastily paid for their drinks and followed them outside, knowing which alley they were leading the girl into.
However, things didn't go as planned; walking into the dark alley were they raped most of their victims, they found the bloodied body of their third companion lying on the ground with a knife embedded into his heart.
Looking around warily, the two men didn't have enough time to escape before there was the loud sound of a bullet shot echoing in the empty alley, and the third man turned around abruptly to see his second companion lying on the floor with a bullet hole in the middle of his forehead, dead.
"This is not funny! Show yourself and stop hiding like a coward," he growled, but there was a waiver of fear as his voice shook.
"You know," a feminine voice sounded out from within the shadows, "I don't think I have ever had the pleasure of meeting such daft criminals … I mean seriously, what kind of criminals goes to the same pub every single night talking in loud tones about the many women you've raped."
The man was speechless, unable to respond to the shadows, his eyes looking at all corners with haste and desperation for the person the voice belonged to.
Suddenly, there was a hard blow at the back of his head, and before he knew it, he was being held to the wall by the same woman they planned on raping that night in this very alley; if he was in a joking mood right now, he would find this to be a very ironic situation.
"You're the pedophile of the group, good. I was leaving you for last," the woman had an evil smirk on her soft face that made it look out of place.
"Oh ya, and why is that?" he grunted out, struggling beneath her hands – she was fucking strong for a woman, unlike all the others they had pinned down.
"Because I want to see the look of fear on your face when you fathom there is no escape from death, just like you enjoyed the look on all the children's face that you raped when they realized there was no escaping you," the woman growled out.
Before the man could plead for his life, she took another knife that was deftly hidden in her bra and lifted it to his neck.
"Who – who are you," he struggled to ask.
With a grin on her face, her eyes gleaming with malice, she said, "I'm Shadow Swan," before flicking her hand horizontally and slitting his throat, watching the torrent of blood leaking out with satisfaction.
Taking the knife that was buried into the first rapist's heart, she began carving words into each of the three men, before her height, weight and facial features began to change.
Her hair became ruby red traveling to mid-back, her eyes turned doe-like emerald green, and her body shrunk into the body of a six year old.
It had been three months since Odette Arielle Potter escaped the Red Room, and one month since she left Berlin for the city of New York, and a lot has changed in her life.
After having killed Bröshka and Yvanne, leaving their dead bodies in their suite at the Adlon Kempinski Hotel, Odette stayed in a motel for a while using the money that she took from them after having killed them. It was one week later that Odette realized why exactly she had an affinity to the shadows, and after finding and entering the magical district in Berlin, she bought many books about Shadow Travelling.
In Britain, Shadow Travelling was said to be a dark gift and a sign for becoming a dark wizard or witch, but in all other countries it was said to be a revered gift only born into the most powerful witches or wizards once every century.
Odette loved to Shadow travel; she had more control and accuracy over her destination, and it wasn't uncomfortable at all; also, Shadow Travelling was said to be rare, so most places protected with many powerful and ancient wards, didn't have a protection set against Shadow Traveling – probably not even Hogwarts. All Odette had to do was stand somewhere where there is a small amount of shadow and she would reappear wherever her destination was in the shadow, therefore, nobody would be able to see her disappear and reappear unless they had supernatural eyesight.
Odette also became a contract-killer and a self-hired assassin; she never wanted to work for anyone anymore, she didn't want to be owned by anyone like she was in the Red Room.
Using Legilimency, Odette would dip into random people's minds, and upon finding out that they needed someone dead, she would transform herself into some random person with her metamorphmagus ability and interrogate them. She would inform them that her boss did all the killings and gave them a magically conjured contract for them to sign.
Odette read all about technomancy and became really skilled in combining magic and technology together, it required a vast knowledge of Runes, and after Loki taught her Norse Runes, she was extremely skilled and a fast learner.
She would hand over a private number, protected by magic so that she would know if the person calling meant her harm or were trying to arrest her, and that was how her services became needed and popular; her clients would relay over her number to anyone needing a contract-killer, and none of them ever found out that a six year old was doing the killing.
The contracts would have her signature on it, readily made for her clients to sign and the money to be sent and she would go on her way and do the deed, killing whoever her client wished – she never questioned why they were wanted dead, she was an assassin and it was her job to kill and collect the money.
She would sometimes Shadow Travel into museums and jewelry stores and steal important and very expensive paintings or statues, as well as jewelries; she would then go sell them somewhere and collect thousands and millions of dollars. She would then report the missing piece being sold, and it would be returned back to its rightful place.
She was never caught due to her many fake ideas created magically, and her many disguises due to her metamorphmagus ability; and thus, Odette Arielle Potter had more money than the Potters could ever hope for, shrunk into an unbreakable safe with a tracking charm into her pocket wherever she went.
And that was how Shadow Swan was born.
Odette made sure everyone knew about Shadow Swan's existence; after stealing expensive valuables, she would spray paint 'Shadow Swan' where the missing valuable should be, and that was how everyone came to know of her.
They feared her, they idolized her and some even tried to imitate her, but to no avail … no one could be The Shadow Swan.
She picked Shadow Swan as an epithet, as her code name, for personal reasons, as it was sentimental to her; Zelda always told her that she was extremely gorgeous for her age, that she was no caterpillar that was to grow later on into a butterfly, or a duckling into a swan … Zelda would always tell her that she was more gorgeous than any swan, and that she would continue to mature into a goddess of great beauty.
Odette also had an affinity to the shadows; before she gained the gift of Shadow Travelling, Odette was always able to move and hide dexterously between the shadows when she was out on missions.
And so, Odette Arielle Potter dubbed herself, Shadow Swan.
Cleaning her two bloody knives on the dead man's clothes, she heard footsteps approaching at an abnormally fast rate; acting nonchalant, Odette mentally prepared a protective and killing stance; she had no choice but to kill whoever the person was.
"Oh my god! Are you alright?" a woman asked from behind her, but as Odette turned, she noticed the woman freeze, her eyes widening in shock as she realized that it was Odette who killed the three men, and not her being a victim she assumed her to be.
Odette did nothing but stare at her with an impassive look on her face, they both seemed to be scrutinizing each other and she inwardly smirked.
The intruder had dirty blonde hair that rested onto her shoulder blades, a cute button nose and round cheeks with chocolate brown eyes; the woman overall was very beautiful with a baby face and a curvy figure.
"You killed them," she hissed looking at her in disapproval. "Why?"
Cocking her head to the side, Odette spoke in an uncaring tone, "Does there have to be a reason? So I killed them," she shrugged, "Big deal."
The girl looked at Odette sadly, "But you're just a child ..."
Raising an eyebrow, Odette regarded her coolly as she crossed her arms and casually said, "And you're a vampire."
The woman- the vampire sucked in a harsh breath, now regarding Odette in fear and suspicion, "How- How did you know?"
"Simple. I heard someone approaching at an abnormal speed, you probably smelled all the blood a mile away, am I right?"
Dumbfounded, the woman nodded.
"Also, you told me yourself … I can slightly read minds, and your mind was screaming blood, hence … vampire," said Odette calmly, allowing a look of amusement to appear on her childish features at having stumped a creature of the night and one of the most dangerous ones there were.
"Wait, you can read minds? Uh, heard me running … are you, no, you can't be-"
"I'm not a vampire if that is what you are getting at," Odette chuckled, interrupting the vampire mid-ramble, "I'm a witch … a complicated and much different witch, but a witch nonetheless."
"Oh, huh, I'm a good listener," the women said kindly.
"Yeah, look no offense but I'm not looking for a buddy," said Odette dismissively, walking away from the alley, she didn't want to be here when the cops turned up.
"Oh come on, I don't bite," she chuckled, attempting at a joke.
"Love the dry humor sweetie but nope, now go away," said Odette in amusement. A part of her wanted to befriend the vampire, she could tell that she meant her no harm and that she wouldn't judge, but after being in the Red Room for twenty months, and after losing her innocence to Ivan Vanko and having to kill her only friend and elder sister, Odette didn't want to show any emotions or become friends with someone, only to lose them later on just like she always did.
"Your accent is funny, it sounds British but there is a sharp edge to it, almost foreign," the vampire mused thoughtfully, wrinkling her nose in thought.
"I'm British, born and bred, but when I was four I moved to Russia," was all that Odette said, thinking that maybe if she threw her a bone she would leave, but she didn't … in fact, the vampire followed her all the way to the motel she was staying at, trying nonstop to start a conversation.
Reaching her door, Odette snapped, "Well, it was nice listening to you have a conversation with yourself, but it's time for my bedtime."
"Oh, ok … well at least give me your name … not a fake name, just your name," the vampire asked, looking at her beseechingly. She looked like Bambi at the moment, that Odette felt her walls crumble slightly.
Groaning in defeat, and pinching the bridge of her nose, Odette said, "Odette. And that's all I'm going to give you!"
"I'm Lexi," the vampire – Lexi beamed, before disappearing completely.
Odette shook her head, muttering about stupid vampire speed in her head. She wasn't too bothered about giving her name to the vampire, it wasn't like she was going to run into that specific vampire again, and besides it's not like a vampire could report her to anyone.
However, Odette had never been more wrong. Every night Lexi would stop by her motel, adamantly trying to become her friend, and every night Odette would push her away.
It took one month until Odette finally gave in and declared Lexi to be her first friend since Zelda, and
Odette didn't even regret it. Lexi was very down to earth, and had the ability to make Odette laugh. When Lexi found out about her metamorphmagus ability, she squealed so loudly at all the possibilities, and they began going to concerts together.
Lexi also introduced Odette to her boyfriend Lee, who was also extremely friendly like her except lacking the bubbliness. Lee informed Odette that he fell in love with Lexi, and even after finding out that she was a vampire, it didn't stop him from loving her, instead he asked for her to change him as well so that they could be with each other for all of eternity – which, Odette had to admit was very romantic.
Odette never let her guard down with anyone, and as the days went by she began getting used to showing her emotions only when around Lexi and Lee; they were immortal after all, and they could not be killed easily, so Odette never feared losing them.
Lexi would also tell her about her male best friend Stefan, having already dubbed Odette as her female best friend; Stefan was apparently a vampire that fed on animal blood since he was badly affected by human blood, one drop according to Lexi, made him lose control of his humanity turning into a ripper, which Odette had to admit, she found it to be awesome … slightly awesome.
Lexi and Lee on the other hand, preferred not to kill humans or even drink from them; instead they would drink from blood bags. Odette found it really ironic that her –the human, that killed people left and right, was a contract killer and an assassin, while Lexi and Lee – vampires, which needed to drink blood in order to survive, didn't like killing humans.
Lexi tried to curb Odette's need for killing; she tried convincing Odette to use her magic for good and to go back to Potter Manor and save her money – but to no avail. Odette wouldn't listen and remained stubbornly quiet when the subject was brought up, and Lexi learned to just leave her be, she loved Odette the way she was and even though she hated the killing, she would never change her best friend for the world, and that was one of the main reasons why Odette stayed friends with her.
Odette made Lexi and Lee daylight rings, which made them ecstatic as they were sick and tired of only traveling and going out at night. They had missed the sun, and the feel of it on their skin and it had been many centuries since they had been able to bask in the sunlight.
Odette didn't use the magic on the daylight rings like the witches Lexi informed her about did – using spells, chants and spirits. Odette informed Lexi that she was a different sort of witch; her magic ran through her veins, all stored in a core that grew with maturity, and later on at the age of eleven, they would use a wand which would help her to channel her magical powers to centralize the effects. However, the witches Lexi spoke of where the complete opposites, they were servants of nature and they had a limit when using their magic; they were unable to use their magic for personal gain otherwise there could be grave consequences from the dead witches.
Odette used blood magic in making the rings – she bought many books in Berlin and in Liberty Lane (the American magical district) and she learned many things as she wasn't about to go to Potter Manor any time soon.
She bought two rings, one was feminine with a large amber crystal stone in the middle, and the other was masculine with smaller amber crystal stones decorated around. Using her blood, she fueled the light protection charm and fused it into the amber crystals.
Odette informed Lexi and Lee, that she used Amber since it was a solar stone closely associated with the power of the sun, and since Amber was considered to be the most potent of magical gems, it is favored by witches and easy to place charms and cast spells into.
Odette also informed them that she cast a permanent sticking charm on them, meaning that no one, not even them, can remove the ring, and if they ever needed to remove it, then she was the only one with the ability. With her blood fueled into the Amber crystal, no other witch could remove it from their person or use sunlight against them.
Lexi and Lee were thrilled with everything she had done for them, making her a friend of theirs for life.
***THE FORGOTTEN POTTER***
Currently in New York City, there was pandemonium happening in S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters run by Director Nick Fury.
Around two years ago, his spy in the Red Room informed him that a new girl was brought it and that she seemed to have potential as the Generals Pyotr and Pavel Petrovich took great interest in her, and personally inducted her in, spending most of their time training her.
He was then informed that they tried a new serum on her, one that was different from the one they gave Black Widow, who was now one of his Agents, Agent Natasha Romanoff. However, the serum worked on her and since then she was the only one to have survived it, making her a dangerous weapon, possibly even more so than Black Widow.
His spy kept communication with S.H.I.E.L.D. about the girl, Odette Potter; and he was told that she was an exceptional assassin, one of the best Red Room ever had, and the pride and joy of Pyotr and Pavel; every girl in the Red Room seemed scared of her, and rightly so.
However, their plans of converting the girl over to their side failed when she left on a mission to Berlin with two other assassins. The spy told him that the Generals Petrovich blew a gasket and killed many of their own girls to help relieve their anger; it turned out the girl didn't need converting, she already wanted out and she planned on escaping once they reached Berlin, as it was far away from Russia.
She killed the two assassins and left them in the hotel suite for them to be found, and then ran away, and it has been six months since they last saw her. His spy told him that Pyotr and Pavel were searching for her endlessly, but to no avail, she was really good in covering her steps.
Another problematic problem for S.H.I.E.L.D. was Shadow Swan.
No one knew how the person looked like, what their real name was or where the base was located.
He had one of his Agents retrieve the number from one of Shadow Swan's client and call the number, but it got disconnected after the second ring without the person on the other end answering. They couldn't even track the line as it cut after the second ring, and therein lay their biggest problem in catching her.
He sent his best Agents all over New York looking for her and they never got back with any results, not even a simple lead. Agents Romanoff and Barton were getting frustrated, not used to failure and coming from a mission empty handed.
Shadow Swan was proving to be S.H.I.E.L.D.S biggest challenge and a gigantic pain in the neck.
Shadow Swan didn't draw the line at murder. No. Shadow Swan had a talent for robbery as well, and the worst part was that none of the cameras caught the person coming in or out, Shadow Swan would hide in the shadows when the camera rotated in their direction – he now knew why the word 'Shadow' was included in the alias.
Shadow Swan liked leaving their name plastered over the walls of the venues they had just robbed, or on their victim's skin.
Shadow Swan would carve 'Shadow Swan' on their foreheads, and that was when Nick Fury knew that Shadow Swan wanted to be recognized, Shadow Swan was toying with them, Shadow Swan knew they couldn't get caught.
That was when pandemonium struck, and Shadow Swan became a pain and a huge problem for S.H.E.I.L.D. and Director Nick Fury.
A/N: Can anyone guess who Lexi is exactly? =)
What did you think of Lexi in this chapter? What do you think of the friendship between Odette and Lexi?
How did you like Shadow Swan? And what about the part for S.H.I.E.L.D.? Don't you just love Nick Fury and how easily angered he is, LOL!
