A/N: Ta-Da! I know that you all probably wanted me to update HC:A but I couldn't (sorry), I've had this written (and re-written) for a while and decided this needed to go up before I forgot about it. So here's another one of the Poll choices, this may turn into a series of drabble's… Or I may change it into a one-shot at some point; it depends on how I feel. This is also set before the film Thor, when they are just reaching adulthood, so the main gang is 19-20 and Zora is 17.

Title: Silvertongue strikes.

Category: Thor

Characters: Fandral, Thor, Loki, Sif, Volstagg, Hogan, Zora (my OC)

Summary: Fandral gets tricked into letting Thor come to his home, now how does he stop his sister from harming the future king of Asgard?

Words: 479

Fandral sat nervously watching his sister, Zora, sharpening her throwing knives, he'd just finished informing her that some of his friends (and the people that used to terrorise her as a child) were coming for a visit. He'd been trying to stop this very thing from happening ever since he saw his sister throwing weapons at a drawing of Thor, of course he'd also hoped that Thor would forget all about visiting the homes of his friends, and had succeeded until Loki smiled innocently (more like devilishly) at one of their training sessions and suggested going to Fandral's as his parents were going to be away that weekend. Of course Thor jumped at the chance, and with Volstagg, Hogan and Sif backing him up Fandral had no choice but to agree, and so he'd left early to tell his sister and pray he could persuade her to be civil.

Fandral jumped when the knives were placed on the table and he looked into Zora's emerald eyes (so much like Loki's, not that he'd tell either of them that),

"He acts like a pig-headed buffoon and I'll hit him, even if he is the precious Prince. I'm not going to tolerate it in our home." Her tone was cold and he nodded moments before there was a heavy thud at the door, as Zora's eyes narrowed dangerously he stood and rushed to answer, opening the door he had to duck as Thor's fist made to knock once again.

"Ah! He answers! Now, where is your amusing sister? Hiding behind her nannies skirts like always." Fandral could feel his sister's glare on the back of his skull before moving to the side as one of the newly sharpened throwing knives became imbedded in the door frame.

"I don't have nannies anymore you overgrown ape!" Zora came into sight, her eyes still narrowed and her chest heaving in anger, Thor merely grinned before gathering the young woman into a hug.

"Lady Zora! Still as amusing as ever!" he thundered before doubling over as Zora moved from his grasp, he continued to smile as he straightened only to have his face turn to the left as he was punched on the jaw. Fandral watched Zora leave via the back door, wincing as it slammed, he was sure she was going to use the throwing knives on one of the new drawings, and as he turned back his sighed. Thor had an expression on his face that Fandral had seen too many times before, his sister had a thing for leaving awestruck men behind her and it would only take a few more meetings between the two before Thor would be asking for her hand (like so many before him). The others laughed in the background as Loki slipped away, unnoticed to find the girl who'd had his friendship from the moment they'd met.
