I don't exactly remember dying, I know that I was reading at the time. Yes I was reading a book, I just can't remember what book.

The next thing I know I'm being born from my new mothers lady parts. Not a fun experience to be honest, if you have a choice choose after your born to remember anything because . . Just yuck.

"She's beautiful Frigga, what shall you name her?" I hear a woman ask as I'm laid in my new mothers arms.

"Maia, I shall name her Maia." She says happily "a little girl! It's time to meet your brothers. ODIN, bring in Thor and Loki please!"

Thor and Loki? Odin? Frigga? Do I have Norse obsessed parents perhaps?

. . . Nope, it turns out that I have the Norse gods as parents basically and in a very uh . . Marvel kind of way.

Let's just say that at least the length of being a baby for an asgardian isn't a hundred years or something.

Growing up in a palace was. . Strange. Trying to play hide and seek in said palace? Awesome!!

"Loki come on, let's go hide from Thor!" I say happily, he isn't having his play date with lady Sif right now.

"Of course Maia" little cute Loki says amused. Being a kid again is freaking difficult man. They need to have some more fun here.

Then that started my round about way of making sure that the people around here had fun.

"Come on dad it'll be fun!" I say happily as I drag dad off of his throne thing "we're going to first play tickle monster and then we're going to play Tic Tok Toe!"

"Maia dear, daddy's busy." He says amused.

"Then they can play with us too!" I tell him happily as I drag him off to play.

With a shout I yell out "Mom, Loki, Thor dear, it's time to come and play"

It's not a perfect thing of course, not everyone plays with but. . My young life has already been like 300 years and I'm soo sooo bored of being a little kid.

Mom knows, she knows that while I'm her daughter now there was a time when I lived that I wasn't.

It was a day that mom has taken us all to a field to play in and while Thor and Loki were running around playing it went something like this.

I was watching Thor and Loki play boredly, mostly imagining other productive things I could do with my time.

My new mother sat next to me and we sat in silence awhile. "It's okay to be a child again dear." She tells me as she wraps an arm around me gently "you're young again, you can live and regrow, learn new things, you're getting another chance here darling."

It wasn't instantly after that though, I took baby steps, first it was me trying to play tic Tac tow with Thor and Loki or Rock Paper Scissors which I had to teach them because those games don't exist on Asgard apparently.

Now to be honest, I have tried to explain monkeys to Thor . . Yeah, that's a hopeless situation currently and I'm quite sure he'd rather have a visual of said animal instead.

We were sitting outside in one of the nearby fields, it was after my training with mother and Loki, some people were practicing their fighting with swords or their fists, the children were playing.

"Darling sister, why you like me to teach you how best to wield a sword?" My big brother asks as he sees me watching his mock fighting, even carrying over another wooden sword.

I smile at him and shrug "Of course brother I will try."

Thor reaches his hand out and pulls me up, leading me into the hoard so to speak when he hands me a wooden practice sword.

Without a word Thor swings is towards me, which considering how tell he is even for a kid in his very early teens was a lot to dodge, see I'm about 8 right now in human years.

"Come on now sister," he says as he helps me up "you must hold the sword tighter then that or it'll fly right out of your hands again."

"I much prefer using magic like mother brother dear." I inform him as I hold it tighter and glance at him, when he swings I back out of the way.

"You're not suppose to be running from it either, sister."

I hum in response "I have to be able to handle the strength of your blows brother. Right now dodging and then aiming for you is probably my best bet."

"Strategic are you?" Thor asks with a small laugh as I dodge another one and aim towards his side.

"Not bad little sister." He hums "we shall practice more later perhaps, it seems Loki is wanting your attention."

I turn where he's looking and see Loki looking at me from across the field. I make my way back towards him and we walk towards the stream.

"How was your practice?" He asks as I decide to sit down and put my feet in the water.

"Short but well ." I reply simply as he sits down beside me.

"Do you intend to swim?" He asks me curiously.

I smirk at him and grab his hand before I quickly jump in, unexpectedly taking him in with him.

"Perhaps I want us both to swim?" I say with a small chuckle as I splash water at him.

"I'm not such a great swimmer" Loki says with a small laugh.

"Then it's good that our feet can touch the bottom hm? I could help you learn to swim just as you and mother help me with my magic." I suggest.

"At another time perhaps" he says at he splash's me with a small smile on his face.
