Prologue

"What do you mean I'm being forced to live on Midgard with no powers to my name?! You can't do this to me! I would rather be sentenced to life in an Asgardian cell than sent there!"

Loki's green eyes were narrowed and filled with utter hatred for the ones that stood before him now. Ones he had called family. They had sentenced him to live on Midgard just as they had done to Thor to punish him for the crimes he had committed.

Odin stepped closer to Loki as they all stood upon the edge of the realm, staring into the hate filled eyes of the one he had once called son. "I'm afraid you leave us no other choice, Loki. Your actions have put Asgard's safety on the line and you will learn to live among the humans that you were so desperate to conquer and rule over. This is my punishment for you. You must learn to rely on others, must find something precious to you that you wish to protect instead of destroy."

"You can't do this! I refuse to live and die as one of those creatures!" Loki snarled, slowly feeling his power leaving his body. He fell to his knees, glaring at the ones he had once believed to care about him. "I'll have my revenge! You'll all pay!" Within a mere matter of seconds, he felt Odin's abilities completely taking hold, his power now gone and his world went completely black.

Chapter 1

"Aww damn!" Becca Brennan pouted as she saw a flash of lightning in the sky and a droplet of rain hit the windshield of her truck, glaring at the offending drop. "Well there go my plans for ridin' tonight." Yeah, like she had any actual plans. She would need oh what was it? A life, that's right. She needed a life and friends to actually be upset about plans being ruined.

She sighed and kept driving down the long empty road, humming quietly to herself. Well it might have been raining but she wouldn't let that bring her mood down.

Becca always had been the eternal optimist, some people even said annoyingly so. Not that Becca minded, no, she liked being the one with the cheery outlook on life. "Damn this rain's really comin' down." She murmured quietly to herself. It usually didn't rain so much in the sleepy little area just outside Montgomery where she lived. Of course Alabama didn't really see much rain at all, especially not during the summer time.

"What the hell?" She leaned forward as she saw something in the sky and it appeared as though it were plummeting toward the earth at a rapid rate. Her hazel eyes widened to saucers and she slammed her foot on the brake as the unknown object landed, causing the road and everything around it to shake.

Just what was that?! Becca's eyes narrowed, deciding right then and there to find out just what had fallen from the sky like that. Taking her foot off the brake, she pushed it against the gas and began to carefully make her way off the main road toward the deserted piece of land where the object had crash landed.

Luckily for her she knew these woods and back trails like the back of her hand so it didn't take her very long to drive her little truck to the crash site. Her eyes widened once again when she saw how great the damage really was.

"Shit!" Just what had landed in that huge crater in the middle of the field?! Becca carefully hopped out of the driver's side of the truck and took a deep breath. Come on now, she could do this. It was just some huge crater in the middle of the field with some mysterious object inside…How bad could it possibly be?

…Okay yeah she was thoroughly fucked if it turned out to be some kind of radioactive shit. Shaking her head, Becca forced her legs to move and kept walking until she was standing right at the edge of the crater and only then did she gasp.

Holy! That was insane! Just what the hell caused this?!

Becca shook her head, taking a slow step backwards fully intent on turning right back around and finding help. Only when she saw slight movement did she freeze completely and stop in her tracks. Was that…Oh hell no. No no no no please God in heaven don't let some kind of alien be in that crater! Again she saw movement and cursed herself.

"Damn it all, why me?! I swear…" Muttering even more to herself, Becca took another deep breath, readying herself for the long climb down into the gaping hole. The sooner she checked out just what was going on there, the sooner she could leave and get back to her farm.

The closer Becca got to the middle of the crater, the foreign object took on a shape. The shape of a man. It was then that Becca gasped and began to inwardly panic. Oh shit. What had she gotten herself into?

Loki groaned, unable to move a single part of his body, save his legs only slightly. What had happened? Where was he?! His consciousness was slowly coming back to him and that was when he remembered. The pure anger and rage he felt for Odin came rushing back to him as he recalled that Odin had sent him to Earth to live as the pathetic humans lived.

His murderous thoughts were quickly interrupted by a soft gasp followed by, "What the hell…What are you?"

What? Who was that?! Who would dare come near him? And then he felt a soft caress against his cheek and his eyes snapped open. Another gasp was heard and he looked into the face of one of those pathetic humans.

His green orbs met a set of hazel eyes which were set on a rounded face with blonde curls touseled about. Those eyes looked to him with fear at first, then the look melted into one of concern. Fucking humans. As if he needed their pity!

"Damn, you're a real mess aren'tcha now? Can you talk? Do you understand what I'm sayin' to you?"

What an odd accent this human had. Feh, she was weak, just like all the rest of her kind. Opening his mouth, Loki attempted to speak but found he could only moan from the pain and wince.

She sighed and shook her head, kneeling closer to the god of mischief, trying to help sit him up. "Here we go now, it's alright I won't hurt you. Promise." She offered Loki a soft smile as if to try and reassure him that she truly meant him no harm.

"Now once we get you to where you can speak again I'm gonna need you to tell me just what happened to you and how you survived that fall. It looked like it had to be pretty painful for you."

Loki glared at the girl. Such impudence! Just who did she think she was to be so familiar with him?! Oh yes, he would see to it that she paid dearly for this, all of it.

"By the way, don't know if you want to know but I'm Becca. I can just tell by that little sourpuss look on your face you've got there that you probably don't like me bein' so close to you but let's face it, are you gonna be able to get yourself out of this by yourself? I highly doubt it, not as banged up as you are." Becca smiled again and began to look him over for any serious looking wounds but couldn't see any major cuts or scrapes.

"Yeah, I think you'll heal eventually. Just gotta get you out of this crater you made here." Frowning, she looked all around before sighing in resignation. "I'll have to carry you up to my truck, which is probably gonna be a really bumpy ride for you until we get to the top."

Looking at the foreign man again, Becca grinned and with as much strength as her petite form could muster, she managed to stand to her feet and had the much taller man draped over her. She could hear a low growl come from him and she twisted her head to the side, frowning.

"Oh come on now, I ain't that bad now am I? Would you rather I leave you here to fend for yourself? The coyotes around these parts aren't so nice so if I were you I'd shut up and accept my help or I swear I will leave your ass here. Now which is it?"

Loki's anger was only increased by the insolent tone she took with him. He snarled through clenched teeth again but as her eyes met his, he merely gave a curt nod. He would give this pathetic little human permission to carry him out of this hole but the moment he gained his power back she would be the first to go.

Oh yes, this little bitch would pay for even coming near him…

So hi there! *laughs* I've been writing fanfiction for a number of years but this will be my very first Thor/Avengers/Loki fanfic of any kind. I have always been in love with the Avengers universe but never got the courage up until now to actually post any of the stories I've written for it so here we go! Hope you all enjoyed it so far, there's still plenty more to come! Constructive criticism is welcome but flames not so much.
