Hi everybody, this is Land-of-Fins writing.
This is my first fanfiction here, actually first one in english, since this isn't my native language, so please forgive me all the mistakes. It would be great if you told me about them, anyway. I also want to say, that this story isn't 100% serious, but I am not trying to make it a total parody either.
The summary sucks, I know. Please, try to get over it.
One chilly, bright, frosty, autumn morning all the Avengers except Thor were hanging at the Avengers tower. Actually 'Earth's mightiest heroes' were in one of its living rooms, trying to start the day normally, since today they didn't have any world-saving missions on. Tony was pouring himself something to drink and was discussing about some science stuff with Bruce (how many chemical elements they knew and how to list them all), while Steve sat on the nearby couch and tried to understand them in order to distract himself from the flirt-fight between Clint and natasha on the other side of the room. However, everybody paused their actions when they heard Jarvis' voice ringing in the air.
"Sirs and Miss Romanoff, I'm sorry to disturb your interesting conversations, but Mr. Odinson and a friend of his are waiting outside, asking for you to let them in", Jarvis said, waiting for some kind of answer. Tony put his drink on a bar counter and looked at everyone else in the room. Nobody knew what to think. Wasn't Bifröst supposed to be broken and Thor keeping an eye on his brother?
"Who is this 'friend' of Thor's, Jarvis?" Bruce asked after a moment of silence. He, and nobody else in the same building to be precise, didn't actually want any crazy people running around the Tower and pissing him off.
"By her clothing and way of speaking, I would assume she is from Asgard", the AI answered. Everybody blinked their eyes and silence surrounded them once again. Things seemede to get even more strange, and even Natasha broke her stoic mask and looked surprised by the fact that not only did Thor arrive on earth, he also brought some Asgardian woman with him.
"Should I let them in?" Jarvis asked after another moment of silence and sounded like a teacher talking to a stupid kid. Tony sighed and nodded.
"Yeah, I can't see any reason not to. Just make sure Thor doesn't break the elevator", Tony said, picking up his drink.
-xXXx-
"Wonderful to see you again, my friends!"
Thor's teddybear-voice carried from the hall as he stepped into the living room and greeted everyone with a huge, happy smile. Steve waved to him from the couch, happy to have someone else who didn't understand technology or Bruce and Tony's conversations around.
"Nice to see you too Thor!" Tony said, and turned to face the Asgardian man, which, to be honest, proved to be a little difficult since Thor was so much taller than Tony. The blonde god of thunder was just about to say something, but he was interrupted by a slim, pointy-faced and tall woman arriving. The woman certainly wore Asgardian clothing - she had long, emerald gown, knee-high leather boots and pale fur-cloak, and her black hair was flowing freely around, though it was pulled back with a simple, golden, diadem-like headband. Everybody stared. The moment Thor noticed her, his face fell into a confused frown. It was strange to see such a huge and courageous man so unsure about things.
"Yes, um... As you may have noticed, I, err... Do not come alone this time. My friends, uh... You see, we had little problems in Asgard, many of which had something to do with my little brother and his... Err, condition while he was imprisoned... Nobody actually cared about his doings or wills, because he had big and nice chambers, but... But I cared, I just wanted to help... We, I mean... We agreed to take him back to Midgard with his powers taken away -" Thor mumbled, but was interrupted again by the strange woman, when she glared him murderously. Clint could have sworn he'd seen that glare somewhere. While the woman walked towards the sofa, she glanced at Clint. Her light blue eyes seemed so familiar.
"Thor, please, do not speak if you do not know how to form words", the woman sighed and sat down, her legs wide apart and hands on the back of the couch. Not the most feminine position you could think Asgardian lady picking, but what surprised the Avengers more, was in fact the way she spoke. Her voice had this strange singing tone in it, nevermind it being surprisingly low and cold for a woman. By this point everyone in the room looked at her curiously, even Tony lowered his sunglasses and put his drink back on the counter to watch her. When she noticed the surprising attention, she smirked a little.
"If you understood Thors senseless rambling, you may have gotten the clue already... Shape-shifting is curious type of magic, but I overused my limited powers when being teleported here by Heimdall, and got stuck in this form. So, good morning, I am Loki of Asgard. I believe we have already met", she grinned. Silence filled the room once again. Tony dropped the sunglasses from his hand and stared at the woman, who now seemed to be their former enemy, the prince of Asgard. His mouth hung open, and Steve slowly moved further to the corner of the couch, to get as far from the norse god as possible, his face turning redder by any minute. Natasha glared and Clint's eye twitched, while Bruce was trying to shake Tony off of his shock, and trying to get him mumble something else than 'Loki has breasts' under his gasping. Thor buried his face in his hands.
Actually loki seemed to be the only who found the situation amusing.
Wow, a cliffhanger. Yes, I know it's stupid to do such cruel thing, but I want to know what you think before I continue. Oh, and before you ask, I am aware that in the comics Loki actually steals Sif's body to look like woman, but it doesn't matter right now - if he can transform into a mare horse, why not a woman then.
