A Life Behind These Secluded Walls
Chapter 1
Surprise!
.
The guards pushed Loki to his knees. Standing in front of them was Odin, the All Father, along with many other gods.
Odin sat on his throne, a frown on his face. "We have come to a decision," his voice boomed across the throne room.
It had been months after the destruction of New York, and now was the time for Loki's punishment to be decided. Odin had gods from all over come to this meeting, after all this was a serious matter. They had helped him to come to a conclusion.
Thor, who was now standing next to his brother, looked nervous. Even he, the prince of Asgard, had yet to know what Loki's punishment was. Although he trusted his father to give a fair punishment he could not help but feel worried.
Without explanation Odin got up, and walked forward in Loki's direction, the other gods followed.
They were Vor, the Goddess of wisdom; Forseti, the God of justice, peace and truth; Baldr, the God of beauty, innocence, peace, and rebirth; Elli, the Goddess of old age; Eir Goddess of healing, and a few others.
"Move back," Odin instructed Thor and the guards. The guards immediately moved back, but Thor hesitated, sending Loki a worried glance. Odin put a reassuring hand on his shoulder. Thor sighed, but finally backed away.
The gods surrounded Loki, forming a circle around the demi-god. Loki narrowed his eyes at his so-called father, unable to say anything because of the gag that had been so inhumanely shoved into his mouth.
Suddenly, they started chanting something in a foreign tongue, and light started to emit around Loki. Their chanting got louder and louder until the light was so bright that it engulfed Loki.
Thor stepped forward in worry, but the glare his father sent him kept him in place. Loki's muffled scream of shock was the last thing they heard when the light suddenly went out.
Where Loki once was, lay a child, who couldn't be any older then a year old. He had a tuft of black hair, and stunning green eyes. The clothing Loki had on, now laid around the kid's small body like a blanket. He giggled, playing with the clothing.
Thor's mouth fell open in shock, he stepped forward. "w-what?" He couldn't form any cohort words; he just stared at the child in confusion and shock.
Odin picked the child up off the floor, calling out to some maids to get him some clothing that would fit him.
Odin nodded to the other gods, thanking them for their help. They smiled in accomplishment glad that the spell had worked, said their good-byes, then left the room.
"Father, what is this?!" Thor asked, finally getting over his shock enough to ask.
"Calm yourself, Thor. We came to the decision that the best way to punish Loki was to let him re-live life. I have wronged him in many ways, and if I had shown him a better path he might not have turned out like this. I called a meeting and gods from all over came, and with our combined power we were literally able to change his body and mind back to that of a child." He sat down in his throne, the baby happily clapping its hands.
"Come Thor, hold him." He waved Thor over. Thor cautiously came over and held out his hands to hold baby Loki. Loki giggled happily and reached out to Thor. With a newfound happiness Thor held Loki up and played lightly with him.
"Thor, take him back to Midgard, show him the wonders of life, raise him right." Odin said.
It was then that a few maids came rushing into the room with baby clothing. Thor hesitantly gave Loki over to them, honestly not wanting to give them his brother, but all he was wearing was an oversized shirt, so he had no choice.
| Hours Later
Thor stood in the middle of a desert, Mjölnir in one hand, Loki in the other, and a small bag on his back with some clothing among other things for Loki.
A fond smile found its way on Thor's lips as he looked upon his brother. Loki was currently asleep, a deep green pacifier in his mouth. Thor covered Loki with a blanket, held him securely, raised Mjölnir in the air, and took flight, heading to Stark Tower. (Which had been renamed "Avengers Tower" in the aftermath of the Battle of New York)
He hoped they would accept Loki, but whatever happened, he would protect Loki with his life.
So? what you think? Review please !
