The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia smiled and walked with him over to the edge of the hall where there were drinks and snacks. As they reached it, a woman, Queen Estelle of... Nander, stopped her. She smiled at her, "Oh, you look beautiful, Queen Anastasia. I'm so very happy for you."

From the way the woman was talking, you would think that she had known Anastasia since the day she was born. Which, obviously, was not the case. Anastasia curtsied, "Thank you, Queen Estelle," The Queen pulled Anastasia into a hug as she finished her sentence. Anastasia looked over her shoulder at Samsul, her eyes wide, as she hugged the woman back. After a moment or two, Estelle released her and walked off. Anastasia looked at Samsul, "Well that was... different."

She grabbed a glass from the table and took a sip of what seemed to be white wine. She looked at Samsul, "Are all the Lost Elf traditions done for the day? Other than falling to sleep together with the sun?"

Tony looked at Clint as he started to panic, saying that they couldn't leave her alone. He stood by the door to ensure that he didn't try to get out. He shook his head, "You can't.... The woman ensnares men with her voice. S.H.I.E.L.D was trying to get rid of her and half of the team got taken and the women were shot. If you try to help her... you'll just hinder her..." He looked at the Captain and motioned for him to stand guard of the door. He walked over to his tool bench and sat down, picking up his helmet, "She's Asgardian... We think Loki sent her," He glanced at Clint, "And if Loki is sending a woman who can control men... I see one thing he is going to get out this. That's you back under someone's control and Natasha...."

He turned away and started to work on the helmet, "Do you think you can work the suit?"

"What?" The captain said in shock. Tony looked at him, "I can make it so that the helmet only take in a lower frequency. Too low for that Asgardain to toy with our heads. Problem is we won't be able to hear Romanoff. Good thing is we can actually help her."

He put the helmet back on the table and turned in his seat before walking over to what looked like a bunch of lockers. He sighed and opened a few of them, revealing three fully functional suits, "Do you think you can work the suit and not break it?"

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia shook her head, "You have to be ready too, Samsul," she gave him a soft smile, "I'm not ready.... Just because some royals start their families right after marriage doesn't mean we have to... What happens... will happen," She blushed a little, "Maybe we can talk more when we aren't dancing," she laughed and kissed him when the music came to an end. Anastasia stepped away and applauded the musicians as she looked at her slightly flushed husband.

She giggled a bit and took his hand in her own, "I'm sorry, Samsul... I didn't mean to worry you... it was just something... that I thought we needed to talk about," she wrapped her arms around him, "Come, let's get something to drink."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia nodded and looked up at Samsul, "They do... He's always gotten along well with young children... and adult children," she teased. She looked back over to the dog and girl, "Someday that will be our child... Melor is still young. I'd say we still have a few years."

She wasn't sure where she stood on having children now. She knew that not having one, was not an option. After all, the crown was meant to stay in their blood. Not to mention, it would be nice to be able to mould the next ruler in some ways. But she didn't know when she wanted to start that family. Before, she had been thinking years, however, she hadn't expected her and Samsul to get passed the awkwardness so quickly. In the end, it was also up to Samsul and she wasn't even sure if he was ready... They hadn't spoken about it. She looked up at Samsul, "When..." she blushed slightly as she tried to word her question, "do you think... we'll start trying?"

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia grinned at him, "That is a title I'm happy to hear," she brought him into the ballroom, a few of the Royals beat them to the big room that they had her coronation party in. The rest followed behind. Anastasia looked to the minstrels in the corner and nodded. They raised their instruments and began to play for the Queen and her King. Anastasia looked up at Samsul before she rested her hand on his shoulder and raised the hand that she already held. Slowly, the two of them began to dance to the music for the first time as husband and wife. Anastasia rested her head on his chest as they danced and people began to join. She was happy to just live in that moment. She felt as though she could forever just live in that moment. She heard barking and looked around for Melor. She laughed as she saw a very young Princess playing and dancing with him. Anastasia smiled, "How cute...."

The two of them worked on the suit for some hours before Tony heard a commotion upstairs. He glanced at Clint before throwing his things done and sprinting out of the room. Unlike Clint, he knew exactly what Natasha was going up against. Sure, she was good but the woman was Asgardian. He got to the main room with all of the others to see Natasha battered and bloodied being propped up against Bruce, saying something quietly. She looked at Tony and spoke, "Sorry.... I think she followed," they was a crash and clatter, which affirmed Natasha's fears. She looked at them all and started to stand, "Leave... now."

Bruce shook his head, "Natasha, you came here because you couldn't take her on."

"And I won't be able to if she gets into your heads," She looked at Clint sadly, "I'm sorry...."

Tony grabbed Clint's arm, "Come on," he dragged him back down the stairs and into his workshop. The captain followed, "We can't leave her to fight the Asgard alone while she's injured!"

Tony groaned, "You idiot," He looked at Clint before he locked up the workshop, "Loki."

When I Lost You (Magic223 and Tsubasa)

Tony stopped his work and looked at Clint, "You do know you are talking about Natasha Romanoff... right?" He shook his head, "As her partner, I think you would be the one to know you don't have anything to worry about. Unlike you, she didn't have explosive arrows fighting those aliens and I think she did fine," He started to work on the arm for a moment before he stopped once more, "Wait," He leaned back in his chair and glanced at Clint, "I thought you said you weren't stupid," He chuckled a little, "Screwdriver, there" He pointed to the elbow joint, "Righty tighty."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia smiled happily as Samsul pulled her close and kissed her. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders as the crowd applauded. She heard a sharp whistle and pulled away from the kiss to look at her father, who had his fingers in his mouth. He winked at his daughter and did it again. She didn't know how Royal weddings worked normally, but from the look of those around them, whistling was not common. She took Samsul hand as Gerald walked to the front, "Ladies and gentlemen, may I announce the proud rulers of Greenspring and ask you to join them in the ballroom."

Anastasia grinned and started to walk with Samsul to the ballroom, "Come along, husband, we ought to go and have our first dance."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia smiled as she looked up at Samsul, not really listening to the words the priest said. She could tell Samsul wasn't either. There they were, in front of a crowd of people, watching them and listening to the priest, not listening to him at all. Or at least she hadn't been until she heard him whisper, "Your majesty?..."

She looked at him and her eyes widened, realizing she had missed some cue. He leaned forward and whispered, "Say, I do."

She giggled a little and looked back at Samsul, "I do."

She went back to ignoring him mostly, listening for her name and his questions so that she could avoid another mix up. Finally, he spoke about the rings and her father stood and brought the one for Samsul to her. She thanked him and gave him a kiss on the cheek before she turned back to Samsul. She took his hand in her own before she slid the ring on his finger, smiling up at him as she did.

Tony looked at him, "I never mentioned Loki... And I think if I did, Natasha would have me swiftly killed."

He smiled when the man said he knew how to use a screwdriver due to the fact he was not stupid. He nodded, "I was just checking. After all, this suit is worth more than your life," He started searching through his tool kit as he spoke, "Now that we have assured you know how to use a screwdriver, you are going to use it when and where I tell you," He looked at him, "I'm just going to assume that you know how to take orders. Being in love with Natasha and all, she seems like the dominant type," He said as he pulled a tool out and started to work on his suit.
