Going to a different school was always hard. Especially when the school was in another country. One day Loki was in England, the next he was in America. Just like that. His father had given them a three days notice before they moved. Not that it was a problem for Loki. He had never really had any friends, so no painful goodbyes. Most of the kids at school bullied him, so he wouldn't miss it. His only problem was with going to America. Not only would he be the new kid, but he'd also be the foreign kid. Loki had a feeling the kids at his new school wouldn't be anymore accepting of who he was than the ones at his old school.
He was surprisingly pleased with their new house. His father had money, only the best was good enough for his family. So, like their old house, their new one was also a mansion. Soon enough, however, Loki discovered all the secret passages and hiding places. It was an old house filled with surprises. The kids here were currently on their Christmas vacation, so Loki had about a week to settle into his new life. Christmas came and went, the same as every year. Loki got a wonderful scarf from his mother, which was his favorite present. It was a lovely shade of green. His father looked disappointed at the scarf. Loki knew his father disapproved of his wardrobe. Actually, he seemed to disapprove of everything about Loki. Not his mother though. She had always been there. She would always accept Loki, and he knew that. He loved her more than anything in the world.
Then the day came that Loki had to go to school. Their driver drove him and his brother, Thor. The entire way, Thor was talking excitedly at Loki. Loki pretended to listen, but he was too nervous to actually pay attention. He wasn't overly fond of people, especially when they were new or came in large groups. And now, he was going to be seeing a lot of new people.
It was a big school. A lot of people went here because it was a regional vocational high school. Busses were pulling in and dropping kids off. Loki and Thor got out in the front and walked in. There were a lot of kids inside. Lots of different types of kids. Loki followed Thor into the office. There were people waiting for them, of course. When you had their father, people didn't tend to keep you waiting. They were quickly introduced to the secretaries, the principal, Nick Fury, and the two students waiting there for them.
The first was a young girl named Jane Foster. She was in all Thor's classes, so she would be showing him around the school for a few days. Thor looked extremely pleased at that news. The second was a boy. He had short blonde hair and blue eyes. He was wearing a purple shirt, with a black jacket, and black pants. Loki couldn't help but think he needed a new clothing selection. Turns out his name was Clint Barton, and since they were in all the same classes, he would be showing Loki around. Then Thor and Loki were handed their schedules and sent to explore before class started.
