Her Greatest Desire

Chapter 1: Fateful Encounter

Rain pelted down, the rhythm of the water droplets giving the quiet office room a serene yet deep foreboding atmosphere to it. The room was quite large, but giving the bookshelves and the numerous artifacts and items scattered around the office, it seemed small. The large dark-green couch and an accompanying coffee table that was in the center of the room didn't seem to make the room feel any bigger. Lastly, there was a semi-large brown wooden desk near the large clear windows, a young man at the age of 20 with light-brown hair, clad in a red suit with black pants and brown shoes, stared out at the windows, his emerald green eyes portraying the man's deep thoughts.

"A dark premonition..." he mumbled and continued to stare out, streams of water running down the window, the man calmly turned around as he heard a knock come from the room's door.

"Yes, what is it, Yamino?"

A young man with dark green hair and eyes bowed and greeted the other man "Master Loki, it seems that we have not had many cases lately, would you like to have some tea downstairs, or should I bring it up..?"

The man called Loki smirked slightly while answering, "Why Yamino, I'm perfectly capable of going downstairs, you know."

"Yes, Master Loki." the green-haired young man bowed and exited the room, not before asking if 'Master Loki' would like some snacks as well.

"Yes, that would be nice." Loki nodded and turned to face the window once again. The rain continued to pour down, not seeming to let up any time soon. Before the young man could drown in his thoughts he saw outside his window a figure of a young girl near the gates of his small mansion.

"Who...?"

He continued to observe the girl and saw that she wore an odd outfit, a sailor shirt with a short dark-blue skirt that seemed to be quite small on her... Loki shuddered before the dirty thought could fully form in his mind. He was, by the town's standards, a gentleman, after all.

He then notice the color of the girl's long hair; a light bubblegum pink. Which he thought was very odd. Before he could smirk, he saw the girl waver to the right and then collapse onto the groung, slightly leaning on the tall black iron bars.

Without a moments hesitation did the man run out of his office, down the stairs and out into the pouring rain, which he stated he hated with all his being. He even forgot his coat, hanging idly on a coat-hanger near the entrance.

--

The young man in the kitchen near the main hall heard the thumps of rushed footsteps down the stairs and stopped making little snacks for a moment, he looked down to his feet where a little black dog sat, watching like a hawk for a chance that the man would drop some food. The dog only looked back at the green-haired man with equal confusion. Stopping his cooking, Yamino went to the main hall only to see his master run out the door.

"Master Loki?" he heard a bark and glanced down at the black dog staring at the entrance, a look of concern as much as a dog could show was written on the dog's face.

--

Loki ran outside and quickly made his way to the front gates. He opened them and lifted the girl's soaked body off the ground. He then went back inside as quick as he came out. Not before he heard the girl mumble "...Loki..." and then fall unconscious. He paused and glanced down at the girl's face, a little scratched up and muddy from maybe tripping in the rain. 'Wha?' he thought as he entered his detective agency.

'How does she know my name?'


(AN: dun dun duuuun!!XD A cliffy, sorry, couldn't help it!XP I actually found that writing Loki's personality was pretty easy for me, I'm surprised! I'm working on the next chapter as we speak so don't worry about waiting long. This is going to be fun to write! XD
