Thana at age 8
"Tyr! You need to take her there." Odin said.
"I will." Tyr said leaving the throne room of Asgard.
Thana was outside training with Sif when Tyr walked out to her.
"Father!" Thana said running to her father. He scooped her up and spun her around.
"Darling, We are going to visit a special place on Midguard called Kattegat." He said looking at his daughter already excited.
"Can we go now?" She asked eagerly.
''I guess we have to." He said walking to the castle to get there war things and Thana's dresses.
They put their things in leather bags and went to the rainbow bridge with their horses.
"Heimdall take us to Kattegat on Midguard."
"Yes." He said opening the Bifrost.
Before they new it Thana and Tyr were walking towards the gates of Kattegat.
A man appeared around Tyr's age and he let them in.
"Father. Where is this?" Thana asked scared.
"Thana, my darling, we will be alright. You will see. This is Kattegat. Uncle Odin sent us here."
"Yes father."
"I am Earl Ragnar and this is my wife, Aslaug." The man said pointing to a woman who was extremely beautiful.
She smiled at young Thana and said, "Come along darling. Would you like to meet my sons?"
Thana look uo at her father who said it was okay.
Thana nodded and held Aslaug's hand while she took the bag to put in her hut.
"Mother, who is this?" A boy about 10 said to Aslaug.
"This is Thana Tyrdottir."
"She is the god Tyr's daughter?"
Aslaug nodded.
"I am Hvitserk. Would you like to come and join my brothers in some training?"
"Yes! I love fighting. My father taught me everything." Thana said excitedly.
"I will take this to my hut. You to run along." Aslaug said gestering towards Thana's bag.
Hvitserk grabbed Thana's hand and took her to the training spot.
Thana's P.O.V
As soon as we got there an older boy said, "You can't just come bringing girls in here!"
"This is Tyr's daughter. Her name is Thana. Mother said it tis okay." Hvitserk said gently.
"That is amazing. The daughter of a god has come. Where is Tyr brother?" A boy whom Thana learned name was Ubbe.
Then a boy with reddish looking hair said, "I bet she can't beat me in sword fighting."
"I bet she can kick your ass since she is the God of War's daughter." Said a boy with the most stunning blue eyes I have ever seen in my life time.
"I can." I said.
"Prove it." He said.
I got my sword that was specially crafted by my father himself.
"Nice sword." Said the blue eyed boy. It was odd that he was sitting on a stump but I thought it would be better not to ask.
"Okay. Let's get this over with." I said.
The boy who I was fighting told me his name was Sigurd.
We walked up to the arena and bowed and started fighting.
I was doing well. Sigurd was acceptional. He could improve.
I thrusted forwards and he gave scared so it gave me the opportunity to knock the sword out of his hand. My sword then went to his throat.
"Yes!!! Finally someone to beat your ass!" The blue eyed boy said.
"What do you do?" I asked him.
"Archery" he smirked.
"What's your name." I asked him.
"Ivar. I challenge you to an archery fight." He said.
"Accepted." I said.
"Ladies first." He said.
"That's why I am waiting." I smirked.
I heard laughs.
Ivar rolled his eyes then shot a bulls eye.
He looked at me and said, "Your turn."
He then looked at his brothers and talked to them.
I concentrated and shot. My eyes were closed and I then opened the to hear wood splitting.
Ivar turned and said, "Not possible."
"I think you just met you match brother." Said Ubbe, Sigurd, and Hvitserk.
Ivar had his jaw dropped and quickly recovered when the man I remember to be Ragnar said, "Seems you have son."
"Come. We must explore Kattegat later. We have a feast to attend." Ragnar said.
We quickly ran to the hall.
People had already filled it. I quickly spotted my father and ran to him.
"Thana. I have to be leaving soon. You will have to be safe here. The Gods and I will look after you. I promise. We already know your future. You will be fine." Father said.
I slowly started to cry. "Who will take care of me father?"
"King Ragnar and Queen Aslaug have agreed to take care of you like their own. I swear to the gods you will see me again."
"Yes father." I said quickly drying my tears.
"We have had a very special guest join us but he will sadly be leaving soon. His daughter is the age of my boys but she can fight better than all of them and some of my men. I want to see if she is strong and smart enough to join me on my next raid." He announced.
"Father did you do this?" I asked.
"Yes I did. You are like an older sheildmaiden. You will be challenged though. Tomorrow I believe." Father said smiling.
"I am 8." I said.
"I know." He smiled.
"What do you say Thana?" Ragnar asked.
"I say yes." I said.
"Good. The fight starts tomorrow." He said smiling.
I grinned. Everyone cheered and I walked over to Ragnar's sons.
"I am younger than all of you. I am 8. And I an going to fight a man tomorrow!?" I said surprised.
"Turn you fear and pain into anger. It helps. That tis always what I do." Ivar said.
I looked into his eyes and smiled. He smiled back.
Ubbe interrupted and said, "Mother told me you will be sleeping with us in our hut. Tis this true?"
"Yes." I said. (*¿*)
----
Sigurd smiled and Hvitserk did to.
All if these boys were amazing. Ivar is amazing even if he is a cripple. His icy blue eyes are the most prettiest of all. He is an amazing fighter even without the ability to move his legs. Hvitserk is sweet. He makes jokes that make me laugh. Ubbe is like my brother. Very protective and amazing. Sigurd is kind. We are bestfriend but I am closer to Ivar.
We were laughing and joking around but all of the sudden my father taps my shoulder. I turn around.
"Stay strong Thana. Be strong. We will not see each other for a very long time. Theses boys will protect you. There is one more Ragnarsson and he will protect you too. I want you to stay you. Fight with all your strength tomorrow. Don't let anyone bring you down. You will win that fight. The raid is soon and you will meet the other Ragnarsson there. Stay my daughter and my little girl. Be the young goddess you are ment to be." Father said tearing up a bit.
I jumped and wrapped my arms around his neck.
"I love you father. Stay the awesome God. Tell Uncle Odin and cousin Thor and Loki I love them."
"I will." He said walking away.
I sat down beside Ivar and sighed.
"I miss my father already." I said laying my head on his shoulder.
"You'll see him again." He said.
I smiled at the thoughts that rushed in my mind.
"Children. It tis time for bed." Aslaug said.
We all walked into the hut.
They all shared the same bed so I crawled up there between Hvitserk and Ivar. I layed my head on Ivar's chest and we all slowly drifted off to sleep.
The Next Morning
I woke uo to someone shaking me.
I opened my eyes to see that it was Ivar.
"It tis time to get food. After that you are fighting my older brother Björn since he has returned." Ivar said smiling.
I nodded and got up.
We all got up and made our way to the hall. I was pulling Ivar in the wagon with the help of Sigurd.
We made it to the hall and I noticed a teenager who looked about 15. He had beautiful eyes and blonde hair. Then there was a woman sitting next to him.
Ragnar smiled when we walked in. I ran over and hugged him to leave Sigurd carrying Ivar.
"Who will I be fighting today Father?" The boy named Björn asked.
Ragnar looked down and I looked up.
"This little one." He said still looking at me.
The woman who Ranar soon told me was Lagertha had her eyes wide.
"You are making him fight a child?" She asked.
"I will crush her." Björn said.
"I think it would be the other way around." I said.
"Sure." He said.
"You would be surprised." Ragnar said.
"Let's see if an 8 year old can beat a 15 year old whom I can't even beat." Lagertha said. She honestly looked worried.
I wondered where Aslaug was.
"She doesn't want to be in the presence of Lagertha." Ragnar said.
"Oh."
We all ate and I was so nervous.
I got on my armour and grabbed my sword.
I was walking out when I was stopped by Lagertha.
"Turn off your emotions. Act like it's fighting your worst enemy." She said.
I nodded. I walked to the training spot and Björn and I started fighting. There was a crowd and I could see everyone including Ivar and Aslaug.
Björn swung his sword. This is just like training with Thor. I have beaten him and he has beaten me.
It was really easy. Björn sword pierced my arm but I didn't feel it. I knocked the sword out of his hand and had mine out at his throat.
His hands were uo in surrender whilst he and everyone stared at me wide eyed.
I ran over to the Ragnarssons, Lagertha, Aslaug and Ragnar.
Ragnar, Aslaug, and Lagertha tackled me in a hug.
Then I moved to the Ragnarssons.
Even though Ivar was sitting down and couldn't move he was the first to hug me. Then everyone else did.
"Princess Thana of Asgard will be joining us on of next raid!" Ragnar announced.
We were alk so happy. They threw a feast and I got to know Björn and Lagertha better. They are both amazing people.
After the feast everyone went to bed.
I crawled between Hvitserk and Ivar as usual. I layed my head on Ivar's chest and he wrapped his arms around me. We fell asleep like this.
