Author's Note: I don't really don't know if there is an underground society on Asgard. I made that up completely. I also Do not own the characters except for the ones I created like the main character and everyone from the Pipe Society.
My name is Ofsi.
It was long ago that I first met the man of my dreams. Currently he sits in a cell below Asgard. I am not part of the royal family or the court. I used to live in the worst part of the city.
Aesthetically the entire town seemed prosperous, but I lived with all of the other less gifted residents of Asgard. Our home was in the sewers. Me and the other children used to pickpocket people to get money for food, or we would just swipe food off of carts. That is sort of how I met the princes of Asgard.
One day, when I was around 12 years old, as I waited for a large crowd of people to gather, so I could pick their pockets easily, I spotted a few young boys about my age. They might have been a bit older than me, but they looked like they had more expensive clothing on. I tried to get as close to them as possible to try and determine if they had any coins on them. Luckily the boy in red held up a big bag that looked as if it had been stuffed with too many coins.
I followed the boy in red, and his friend who was dressed in green. They had bought a lot of expensive silks and food. They were standing at a vendor's cart when I had decided to make my move. The boy in red didn't do anything to protect the large pouch of coins on his hip. As I reached for the mother of all snatches the boy in green grabbed my wrist.
I looked into the green eyes of my captor and was instantly mesmerized. I had never seen eyes as vibrant as his around these parts of town. The boy in red turned to see what was going on. He saw the boy in green holding onto my wrist.
"Loki! Unhand her!" he yelled at him. The boy did not release me.
"But, brother, she tried to steel the money mother gave us." He argued. So they were brothers. I had noticed that when the boy named Loki was talking to his brother his grip loosened. I took this chance to escape, or try to. I ran down the street, while the boys chased after me. I turned into an alley to try and shake them off of my tail, but I ran right into the boy named Loki.
"You won't get away from me girl." He said to me. I dared to look into his eyes and I was mesmerized again. Soon the boy in red caught up to us. "Thor! Her running means that she is guilty."
"Why would she do that? There are no poor people living here." I scoffed at his foolishness. They both looked at me. "Why do you scoff at my remark?"
"You are a foolish boy to think that there are no poor people on Asgard. Just because you can not see us does not mean that we do not exist." They had looked at me like I had three heads. "It is the truth. I live in the sewers with people who have become like a family to me. Meanwhile, you live in the lap of luxury, not caring that you are flaunting around a large pouch of coins." By the time I had finished my short rant my eyes has welled with tears.
"Take us to see your living conditions, If they are as bad as you say they are we can tell our father. He will certainly do something to help." Thor had said to me. He kneeled down and wiped away the stray tear that ran down my cheek.
"What will your father do?" I asked them.
"Why our father is none other that Odin, King of Asgard." When Thor said this I looked to him in disbelief. I then stood up and walked to the back of the alley. There was a hole to the sewers there.
"If you really want to see how I live, follow me." I smiled at them as I jumped down into the hole. I looked up and Thor was at the hole contemplating how to get in without getting too dirty.
Once they both were in the sewers with me I ran towards my home pipe as I had called it. I looked back as I was running to see if they were keeping up with my speed. Loki was the closest to me. I looked away from him to see Thor lagging behind quite a bit.
"Hurry up, rich boy!" I called back to him. As I turned the corner to the main sewer line I saw many of the faces that I see everyday. Behind me I heard an audible gasp. I turned to see the two boys staring in awe at what they saw.
The things I saw everyday, like an old man holding a small child both of them drenched in the sewage liquid, were appalling to these rich boys. I walked over to Seaca, the old man, and asked him how my little sister was holding up. He handed her to me as I thanked him and started off down the pipe. My little sister Van wiggled in my arms as I walked by the people of the Pipe Society.
"Ofsi!" I heard someone yell out on the right side of the tunnel. It was my older brother, Riki. He was the protector of our family. When he stood next to me I he was almost twice my size. He looked behind me at the two visitors I brought with me. "What are they doing here!?" He said pointing at the two boys. That got their attention, and Loki was the one to step up to my brother and explain the whole story about how I met them and why they are down here. He was lucky that my brother was such a good listener.
"So, that is how and why we have come to this place." He concluded.
"It's called the Pipe Society. That is what this place is." My brother said. "We try our best to stay alive every day, and you want to come down here and fix it in a day?" I knew where this was going. He was going to go on a rant and start to get more and more irritated with every word he said. I put my free hand on his arm, and told him to calm himself down.
"I'm sorry about my brother, he can get a bit carried away." I told them. They looked at me with the most terrified look on their faces that I had seen from any of the people that lived above.
"H-He's your brother?" they said. I just giggled and nodded my head.
"Yup, Riki is my brother and this here is our little sister, Van." I said. I turned around and gave Van to Riki so I could show these guys around. "Come on guys. I'll give you a tour."
So that is how I met them, and after that tour of pipe society they really did tell their father about us. Odin actually had more buildings built for all of the people who lived in Pipe Society. The princes also would become the best friends I would ever have.
