I stayed in my room until I was sure that everyone was gone, drawing random cartoons and what I thought Asgard would be like. I checked my phone to see the time, it was 12 pm. I also had 3 texts from Ben, but I was still annoyed with him, so I just ignored them. I stood up, and looked into the mirror in my room, I had red eyes, but I still looked sort of human, I was just a bit blue. I guess I don't look too bad, maybe it was a good thing that Loki showed me this other version of myself . I walked to the door and quietly opened it, and closed it. My house was extremely creaky, so I was used to walking quietly. I walked down the corridor and down the stairs to find Loki's containment room, hoping that no one saw me. I opened his door, and quietly closed it. Then I turned on the lights, so I knew what he was doing, luckily he was awake, but seriously does he ever eat? He stood up, walked over to me and smiled, " I'm guessing you've come to ask me to change you back?" He asked. clearly enjoying seeing me suffer. "well yes, but firstly I would like to thank you for showing me what I look like as a frost giant, it's actually kind of cool. I guess I'll always be a little bit different." I explain, truthfully. "Well I'm a little bit different as well, we can be a bit different together." He says with a smile, wait was he actually being nice to me!? " Place your hand on the glass, and I'll change you back." He said. So I did, and he sent a wave of energy through the glass and me, making me feel warm again. I looked at my hands, they were normal again! "Thank you!" I exclaim. He stares at me for a second, before he says, "You look so much like your mother!" "Thank you. She misses you." I say with a sad smile. He looks at me with a guilt ridden expression before he nods. I wave goodbye, as I turn off the lights and leave the room, " I'm sorry." he whispers as I leave the room. Wait did I just hear that, did Loki the god of mischief just apologise for being an asshole, dammit I should have recorded that!

I walk through the corridor as quietly as I can, but I think I hear someone else. I stop and wait until they go back into their room before I continue on my way. My stomach grumbles and I realise that I hadn't had dinner, so I walk to the kitchen and grab an apple. As I eat my apple, I look around the room, I can see the stars through the glass panels, it's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen! A full moon, high on the sky in the middle of a sea of stars! I checked my phone to realise that it was 2 am, meaning I had spent over an hour looking at the stars, I quickly slithered back to my room and collapsed on my bed. Soon after, I awoke to the sound of an argument. I stood up and got changed, then brushed my teeth, while I was looking in the mirror, I noticed how tired I looked, my eyes were dull shade of green, and the bags under my eyes had bags. I sigh knowing that my appearance isn't likely to change anytime soon. As I open the door the sight I see is fairly shocking! I see Ben and Maya violently arguing over what happened yesterday I'm guessing, "guys just stop! It's fine!"'I shout, they immediately turn around and stare at me. I just sigh and walk towards the kitchen. 'Food" I mumble as I walk towards the pile of break fast foods, Tony turns around at this point, "I'm just going to ignore that." he says. I shrug as I grab a plate and start piling fruit on to it. Then I sit on the sofa and consume my breakfast, soon after, Maya and Ben appear in the lounge. "Priya, Ben told me what happened yesterday, why'd you run away?" asked Maya. I put down my plate and stand up, " well, Loki turned me into a frost giant, and Ben looked at me as if I was some freak, like I was a monster, so I ran. Happy now!" I shout before grabbing my plate and throwing it into the sink. I have a few questions, so I decided that I'd find Thor. First I checked the gym, then his room, then I thought he might be talking to Loki, so I checked his containment unit, and there he was. He and Loki seemed to be deep in a conversation but as soon as I walked in they stopped, "Uncle Thor I have a question" I asked.

"please go on" he said."Can I control when I turn into a frost giant, or will it just... happen?" I asked. "well, I'm not actually sure, I think your father might now a bit more about that." Says Thor, as he gestures towards Loki. Loki sighs before he speaks, clearly bored."Well, it usually happens when you are experiencing strong feelings, such as anger, sadness, joy, or.... love. So no, you probably can't control it."

"Ok thanks!" I say as I wave goodbye to my father and my uncle, and then exit through the window. As I was walking down the corridor, I suddenly remembered that I had to do some training with Clint, after searching for about 20 minutes I found him in the main control room, sitting in the corner above everyone else. I had to shout and do star jumps, to be able to get his attention, and eventually it worked. "Hey Priya, what do you want?" He half said half shouted. "Well I was just wondering if it would be ok, if we did a bit of training?" I asked. "yeah, I'm sure that'll be fine, we need to work on your speed and stamina anyway!" He replied with a smirk, knowing that I hate running. "I'll meet you in the training room in10 minutes ok!" He shouted, I nodded and was just about to walk away when Fury stopped me in my tracks, "Thor told me what happened yesterday, do you think you could work out how to do it again, it would be great to have a frost giant as an ally." He asked. "I'm working on it, its hard to do." I replied. Fury nodded and let me continue on my way. As I was walking towards the training rooms, I saw Maya with Natasha and Banner, she must've remembered as well, hmmmm I wonder where Ben is, no stop thinking about him, you're supposed to be annoyed with him. I think I'll talk to him as soon as I've finished training. I walked into our training room, and waited for Clint. I wondered how cruel he was feeling today, on a good day he would probably stop when he knew I was tired, on a bad day he would most likely nearly kill me.

While I was in mid thought, Clint walked through the door smirking, this is not going end very well for me... He started by putting a treadmill in the middle of the room, then he got loads of electronic equipment that I'm guessing was for me. "First we're going to start by testing your speed, on the treadmill, and I'll be checking your pulse. You will be running full speed, and will continue doing so until I tell you to stop. Put these on." he says as he passes me, about 10 pieces of equipment. After a while, I had managed to successfully put on the tonnes of sports equipment. "Go!" Clint shouts as he shoves me on the treadmill. Then I run, about 20 seconds in, I really regret not stretching beforehand, as my legs now burn and feel like jelly. 1 minute through, he makes it faster and I don't know how I haven't fallen over yet! 2 minutes through, you have no idea how much my legs hurt, owwwwww! Oh wait it's fine, I can't feel them now!

10 minutes later and I'm gasping for air, can he not see that I'm in pain!! Eventually he turned the treadmill off, and I ripped of the equipment and collapsed on the floor, I think I'm going to pass out. Somehow, I don't. "You can have 10 minutes of rest, then we're going to test your stamina, with a run. Have fun! That rhymes!" exclaims Clint. Wow he seems happier than ever, it's like he enjoys seeing my pain.

My breathing is almost normal now, and I've had a sudden adrenaline rush, but I'm sure that's not going to last very long. I sit for a while longer until Clint tells me that I'm going to be running soon, oh joy! We walk out of the training room and into the control room, where I see Fury laughing at me! Well he's certainly a nice person! "I've made a course for you, follow the yellow cones. You're going to be running for half an hour, so that's about 5 times round this course. Begin when you want to." says Clint, with an evil smile. I sigh, and find the first yellow cone, and started running. The route was pretty simple, it went past almost everyone even Loki. It started in the control room, then past the lounge, gym, sleeping areas, Loki's containment area then all of the science labs. It was like torture, I basically passed everyone on this aircraft, including the avengers, Loki and Ben, and all of them were either laughing at my pain or smiling evilly at me... I don't know if you could've guessed, but I'm not very good at running and by the 3rd time round, I was exhausted. Every part of me ached, and I just wanted to collapse, my legs didn't feel real, and I was shaking, I don't think that's normal. I was just running into Loki's containment unit, when my head started feeling all funny, I stopped running, and Loki looked at me with worry and fear. My breathing slowed down and I started seeing black spots, the last thing I saw was my father banging his hand on the glass, as I fall on to the cold hard floor.
