Fate's Wings ~ Part One

~Midgard~

"What am I doing here." Loki gave a frustrated sigh, passing a hand over his brow.

As he walked down a graveled road through a thin forest on Earth, he hadn't a clue how he had ended up here, his intention had been to come along with his brother while he visited with Lady Jane and instead he ends up in the middle of nowhere.

Finally he found his way to a break in the trees, the break revealing a small dingy house. Knowing he was lost, and realizing he needed help to ever have a chance of finding a road he started to make his way towards the house, only to stop when he saw a young Midgardian child coming up the road in front of him.

The young girl was watching her shoes as she walked, and clutching several books to her chest, it was apparent that she hadn't seen him yet.

She was tiny thing, almost unhealthily thin, with a sickly looking pale peachy complexion,
She had very long waist length pale blonde, almost white, curly hair,
And a surprisingly vivid and bright pair of green eyes were hidden behind thin black glasses.

"Excuse me child?" Loki called to her, making her eyes shoot up to him in surprise and startling her into dropping her books.

The girl crouched down to gather her things and Loki made his way over to her.

Just then the front door of the house slammed open and the girl's head snapped up in the same direction.

Loki looked over to the man that exited the house and scrunched his nose with disgust as the stench of something stale like mead reached his nose.

The girl stood up suddenly with a few of her books still laying on the ground, and watched the man carefully as he approached,

"Can I help you buddy?" The man addressed Loki as he said this, but Loki didn't miss the glare he sent the girl, who in turn lowered her eyes back to the ground, "Hope this one hasn't been bothering you." He said, nodding towards the child.

"No, I was actually about to ask for her assistance-" Loki started, but was cut off when the man spoke again.

"Wouldn't have gotten much out of her, she doesn't talk." He sneered at the girl. Loki adopted a look of disdain, but the man hardly noticed.

"Well, then perhaps you could assist me instead?" Loki asked, not really wanting the man's help, "Might you be able to tell me how to get out of these woods, I've gotten a bit lost you see."

"Yeah, just keep following the road and you'll make it into town eventually." The man replied,

"Thank you." Loki said curtly, then he turned and addressed the child still watching the ground, "You've missed a few of your things." He said, indicating the books still lying on the road.

Her eyes darted up to his and then back to the books as she crouched back down to gather then up.

As Loki was walking away he heard the man speak again from behind him, addressing the child now, "Hurry it up will ya."

Reflexively Loki glanced back, not really liking the tone in the man's tone. When he glanced back he watched as the girl picked up her last book, and the man having had enough stomped over and yanked her to her feet by grabbing on to the back of her knitted grey sweater, proceeding to then drag the girl into the house and slam the door behind him.

Loki narrowed his eyes in disapproval, not quite liking how the man treated the girl. Putting it out of his head Loki continued on his way.

A/N: Uh, so I was kind of inspired to do this after reading a bunch of One-Shots on Deviantart... So, yeah.

I guess this is gonna be kinda AU, or anyway not really like how the movies left things (though it may have elements from the movie), and it will center around Loki and my OC, but it will have Thor and the Warriors Three and such.

Hope you enjoy, please R&R, and have a nice Morning/Day/Afternoon/Evening/Night.
