Volstagg joined the others, stabbing his blade into a Giants chest, but the metal lodged itself in a layer of mid-ice and again, Volstagg panicked. Sif came to the warrior on his knees as the Frost Giant slammed its rough fist across his face, knowing him back a few steps. She ran up Volstagg's back and slammed her foot to the hilt of his sword, pressing the sword through the Jotun. 

"Thank you, my lady. But I nearly had him!" Volstagg commented. 

"Of course you did" she smiled amusingly before dragging her sword across the face of another Jotun. 

Thor, Loki, and Nyx managed to fight off in a circle, each other sibling guarding the other twos back as they made a clearing closer to the king. 

Nyx was aware of Hogun finding himself in a rough place, but Fandral and Volstagg were quick to help him. Sif followed close behind the others, fending off the attacking Frost Giants as Volstagg recklessly freed Hogun from his place in ice. 

Nyx enveloped herself in the war, growing tired the longer she fended the Giants off. But just as she enclosed herself in the battle, a strong sound of breaking ice and a sharp whistle flew through the air, splitting Nyxs attention from killing the Jotuns and to the noise. 

She watched as a dying Jotun fell to the ground with a thump and a large wave of water turning to ice mid-air, piercing its sharp edge through Fandral as he innocently reached for another sword. 

"Thor!" Nyx raged, snapping Thors attention from dismembering the Frost Giants to Fandral. Lokis attention snapped back and raced towards Fandral in attempt to help him. 

"That's unfortunate" Volstagg managed to hurry to his wounded comrade. 

"I may need a bit of help. Not a good look, is it?" Fandral struggled as Volstagg carefully tried to free the nearly unconscious warrior. 

"Just try not to bleed".

Then Nyx found herself racing against the blistering wind, fighting away a Jotun with an extremely long face. She flung a knife in its direction, slicing through the icicle armor and stabbing through the side of its cheek. He roared in anger and with one blow to the face, Nyx's sword was broken, her hands red with friction and her arms in severe pain. 

She was left unarmed and slightly more afraid than before. Another few arrows were tucked away in her boots and she only learned how to conjure knives, as did Loki. But with no long sword, or even a thick dagger, she wasn't particularly sure as to how she was suppose to protect herself. 

She flung an arrow at the approaching Giant and lodged it between his thyroid gland, killing him in seconds. Nyx ran quickly to aid Fandral. 

"Thor!" Sif yelled as another cry of pain escaped the sickly cold lips of a nearby Frost Giant. 

Nyx watched as Volstagg slid Fandral's tensing body from its place on the sharp ice. 

"I've got him" she quickly replied before taking the weight of Fandral in her arms, allowing Volstagg to watch their backs. She thanked to have trusted friends rounder in a time of need, she didn't have to worry about them telling Odin or any other Asgardian about her healing abilities. 

She took Fandral's stiff body in her arms and bit her lip to contain the pain she soaked in from the injury she inherited. Blood soaked Nyx front and for a moment she wondered if she was strong enough to handle the pain long enough to transfer it to a Frost Giant. She crumpled to the ground and looked out, seeing Fandral fall to his knees to try and comfort her before reaching for his sword and slaying a creeping Jotun. 

She found the conscious of a nearby being, but the voice was too distinct to be a Jotun. It was someone she knew and in that moment their mind was racing with many unanswered questions and a tremor of fear. It was Loki.
