"Erik, why are we here?" She looking around at the silent yet peaceful place deep into the forest and a small house surrounded by nature, almost similar to her old cabin near the river in Germany. "Isn't this place is... too far from America?"







He stood in front of her with his back facing her, stares at the scenery with a peaceful face. "This is the only safest place away from any threats. A new life."






She huffed, "You are doing this just for the sake of my safety but don't forget that I am strong and immortal."





"Being immortal doesn't mean you don't have a weakness, Layla." He argued back with an angry face, "There is a possibility you can die like everyone else."





This causing her off guard as her eyes widen in realization and steps back a little, stutters, "H-How did you know about that...?" Her left hand grabbed a hold of her right arm in anxious.





Midgardian should never know of her kind even about Asgardian. True, Amazon and Asgard were born with gods and goddess creation including their powers but... it also means that they have a weakness and can die like every creature in the planets.








To life and to die.
