Once again, I wake up in my comfortable bed and am greeted by a beautifully decorated ceiling. The first memory crossing my mind is about my beautiful evening yesterday. Yesterday, Loki and I had talked a lot about our pasts and normally I am not someone who talks often about myself. But with him, everything just feels easier. It feels like I can tell him everything and he would never think strange of me or judge me. He just listens and that makes it so easy to talk with him, even about things I have never told anyone. Also, Loki opened up to me and told me things about the past and himself and it made him even more interesting than he already was. Still, he felt like a mystery and there were certain things, that he didn't want me to know about himself. But to be honest I don't really care because I can totally understand that there are things that aren't easy to talk about and that you don't want to relive again.

After laying in bed for a while, I decide to get ready for the long day ahead of me. I had to 'find my powers' with Odin and train my fighting skills with Sif. I am actually very excited about it because every step I take I am just learning a little bit more about myself. The thing that I am most anxious about is to finally meet my father, or at least to find him. I just need some answers from him and after everything he did to me, he must surely give them to me.

I walk towards my mirror to choose a comfortable outfit in which it is possible for me to train in. I scan all the clothes and notice that there was only one outfit in which I could fight in, but to be honest it didn't look very comfortable. I try it on immediately, fearing that I am going to be late to the meeting with Odin.

I walk towards the mirror and look at my reflection. I look like a real Asgardian fighter and only that thought made me chuckle a little. I am wearing an armor with different shades of gold. It stops over my knees and exposes my whole legs. Over my shoulders and behind my neck I am wearing animal fur, that slightly ends above my breasts. I even have some protection on my wrists and a grayish, beige cape that is completing the look and giving it the final touch. Let's just say, I am prepared for a fight.

----

Odin is already waiting for me in the throne room as if he had known that I am coming at this exact moment and perhaps he knew. I mean he is the King of Asgard, the Allfather he must have unexplainable power.

"I am pleased that you have decided to come," Odin says with his gentle voice.

"Of course. I want to find out who I am and if possible help Asgard in what's about to come." I reply and I think my answer pleases him.

"First of all, we need to find out where your powers really lie. There are so many possibilities about what you could be able to do, especially when you think about, who your parents are. Two very powerful Gods, that are not very easy to defeat." He explains while walking around the throne room, but not leaving my eyes.

"And how do we do that?" I ask towards his current direction.

"This is all up to you." He says, I look at him with a questioning look, not really understanding what he means by that. Odin continues.

"There is no doubt, that there are powers deep in you, but you have to find them yourself. Have you ever experienced something abnormal during your human life?"

And there it is, the question that I am scared to answer. Scared that from the moment I tell him what I have seen, not only in my dreams but also when I was awake, what I muster in my mind while seeing a person, the future or past of them all planned out in my mind, my life will utterly and completely change. And that thought scared me. All my life I thought it was my big imagination controlling and spreading in my mind, but perhaps it was just my power, screaming to be let out.

I look at Odin still unsure if I am going to tell him everything I have experienced and then I say all the thing I have thought I would never say out loud to a person and he listens carefully.

"Ever since I was a child I felt different from the others. When I concentrate on someone so hard, I feel images of their past spreading through my mind. Sometimes intimate things, things that no one wants to share with someone else, I can see and feel it, as if I have been there myself. All my life I thought it was my imaginations wanting to make a person's life more interesting, but after knowing who I am, I concluded that it must have something to do with my origin." I look back at Odin, who has a thoughtful look on his face and then continue.

"But that is not all, it started one year ago when I was asleep. I had a terrible nightmare, but at the first day, I wasn't aware that I am going to be dreaming this dream for almost half a year. But I did and the worst part was that it felt so real." I pause. "The nightmare was about Asgard. This city bursting into flames and being destroyed by a horrifying creature. Is this what you talked about? Your prophecy, that Asgard is in great danger?" I finish my talk with a question.

"Interesting. Very interesting" I hear Odin mutter. "You are even more powerful, then I imagined you to be." He pauses. "I am going to help you. So, you are going to be able to use those abilities and protect our city from darkness." He replies and then adds, "Is there anything else I should know about?"

"Before you brought me here, to Asgard, I have seen the future of a person. I have seen him being murdered right in front of my eyes, but I just couldn't do anything against it! I felt every single emotion and the worst part was that I also felt the killers lust and enjoyment. During that vision, my eyes turned a golden, yellowish color that made them even start to burn, but it hasn't happened since." I add, answering his question.

Odin looks at me and nods slowly in my direction.

"Are you telling me, that it is possible for you to see the future?" he asks astonished.

"Perhaps, but I can't control it," I answer.

"You will." He replies.
