Evangeline sat on the edge of her bed. Her head in her hands, sweat beading from her forehead, and barely audible sobs.

She rocked herself gently back and forth, trying to calm her nerves.

Once she did, she stood.

She stretched her legs, her arms and back. Evangeline braided her dark hair, before returning to a seat in her Asgardian chambers.

She began to project a three dimensional memory in the air. It was her and Loki, it was the day he asked her to be his.

A few tears leaked from her eyes as she smiled. The image began to flicker, taking a darker turn.

She couldn't tear her eyes away.

It was the day she was ripped away from her family.

God, she wanted the memory to stop playing before her eyes but she couldn't.
It was a sunny day, her family and her say beneath the weaping willow. The blossoms of the tree flitted around in the air.

Her youngest sibling, her brother Levian, was playing with the family hound. Her oldest sister and her husband sat on the bass of the tree. Evangeline sat by her parents on the silk blanket.

The royal family of gypsies was content. Their people were not at war.
The day was nice.
Oh it was beautiful.
The serenity of the moment was interrupted by the fierce pounding of hooves and the clanging of metal.
Evangeline could hear screams of the town. Flames soon came into view, they torched the city.
She drew her sword from her belt. She ran from underneath the tree.

The men were cloaked in black, their mounts foamed at the mouth and covered in fierce armour.
She went to throw magic at her opponents but she found it rendered useless.
She turned at the sound of her brother's scream. She turned to run and help him, he was being placed on the man's horse.

Evangeline feel to her knees in crippling pain. She could feel the warmth of blood covering her back.

She snapped to when a knock was at her door.

She let the illusion vanish as she got up to answer the door.
