"This...this is all your fault," Hela said, her voice trembling as she finally looked up at Harry.

"That would be a pretty accurate title for my autobiography," Harry said as he stood up, he took a moment to look around as if the very act would suddenly push him somewhere nicer than this.

"You think this is a joke?!" Hela hissed, she coughed violently as she forced herself to her feet. "You...you stood in my way! If not for you then Odin would have been dead at my feet and I would be ruling Asgard!"

"In that case, it was probably best I did get in the way," Harry calmly replied. "you and Asgard will thank me in the long run."

"You ruined everything!" Hela roared before throwing a conjured blade at him.

"And that's my autobiography sequel," Harry said after leaning to the side to allow the blade to fly past him. "you're not as fast as before," Harry noted. "that's odd."

"No shit!" Hela snapped before tossing another blade at Harry who casually swatted it away with his wand. "Why?!"

"Why what?" Harry asked after dodging another blade.

"WHY...WON'T...YOU DIE?!" Hela screamed, throwing two more blades that Harry slapped away.

"Honestly? Long story." Harry sighed, ready to block more of Hela's attacks, for a few moments it looked like she was going to attack, but she seemingly decided against it as she lowered her hands and allowed herself to fall down to her knees.

"Just...just do it," Hela said quietly, a defeated tone in her voice. "go ahead."

"Do what?" Harry asked as he walked over and stopped just in front of her. Hela snorted before looking up at him, her eyes meeting his.

She took a deep breath before speaking."I'm weak and vulnerable, I have nothing left. You have the power now, you want to kill me, I know you do. Just end me. End me, please."

"Dying...dying is so easy when you have nothing to live for," Harry sighed, not looking away from her. "living...that's much harder. Though, I'd like to think that the feared and mighty Hela might be able to accomplish it." Harry kneeled down so he was face to face with her. "What dangers can I find here?"

"W...what?" Hela breathed, still processing his previous words.

"What is likely to cause me the biggest problems here? Is there anything that will attack us?" Harry asked.

"Besides the blistering winds and freezing cold?" Hela snorted. "There are plenty of things here that are willing to attack us, when I had my strength I was able to destroy them easily," She said, a hint of pride sneaking into her voice. "like I was blowing out a candle."

"Not the best example, since that in this place it seems extremely unlikely for a regular candle to even stay alive," Harry replied, feeling the wind hit his back.

"Is the cold too extreme for you?" Hela mocked, used to this cold by now. Though it was considerably worse without her powers, even before she was at least connected to Asgard, without that connection she was weaker than she had ever felt.

"Not the worst thing I've ever experienced," Harry shrugged, his suit was keeping him warm enough, and should it not then magic would be able to help out. "not the best either," Harry admitted. "are you alright?"
