Among The Stars ✰ Thor Odinson

A knock from outside her chambers woke Milena from her sleep. She sat up with a groan and stretched.

"Come in." She called sleepily.

A servant girl named Dalla peeked her head in and stepped inside "Pardon my intrusion Lady Milena, but prince Thor has requested your presence immediately."

Milena shoved the blanket off of her and swung her legs off the bed, shivering when her feet touched the cold floor. "Why?" She asked.

"The prince never said." She walked towards Milena "allow me to help you get dressed my Lady."

Another thing that Milena doubted she could get used to, the servants insisted on dressing her for the day. Milena often declined their offers, but considering the fact that she always got confused by the Asgardian clothing and Thor needed her immediately, she agreed.

Dalla pulled a deep purple dress out of her dresser and Milena let her strip her of her night gown and pull the over her head, the sleeves were puffy and sheer, the edges were adorned with a golden pattern. Dalla placed a golden chest plate on her and pulled the strings tight, she gestured to the vanity that sat against rhe wall.

Dalla quickly brushed her hair and pulled the top half of it up into a simple style. Milena watched as she rummaged through the vanity drawers, and then pulled out a velvet choker.

"Don't you think that this is a bit too fancy?" Milena asked gesturing to herself as the choker was placed on her neck.

Dalla smiled. "It may be different on Midgard, but in Asgard this is considered quite casual. Your armour will be cleaned and brought here later if you wish to change."

Milena smiled gratefully, and stood up. "well then, where is Thor?"

Dalla led Milena towards the healers, she looked at Dalla confused, 'Did Thor get hurt overnight?' She wondered to herself. Dalla opened the door for her and when she walked in she saw a petite brunette girl laying on the soul forge, her hand in the air trying to touch the orange light. What surprised Milena even more was the fact that she was wearing earth clothing.

"What's that?" The girl asked, her American accent was almost refreshing to Milena, especially after being around Asgardians for many months.

"Be still." The head healer commanded

Milena walked to the corner that Thor was standing in, from where she stood she could clearly see the girl's face. "That's Jane Foster right?" She whispered

Thor nodded "Heimdall couldn't see her, when I went to see what was wrong I found that she was ill."

Milena stayed leaning against the wall as Thor went to talk to one of the nurses "this is not of earth. What is it?"

She hesitated "we do not know. But she will not survive the amount of energy surging within her."

Milena stood up straight and looked at Jane concerned, and wondered what the girl did to get that much energy inside her. The nurse walked away and Milena took her place, she placed a hand on Thor's arm reassuringly as he looked concerned at his friend.
