Darkness surrounded him as he floated through space.
He remembered the recent events back on Asgard.
"I will not fight you brother."
"I'm not your brother! I never was!"
"Loki! Stop this madness"
"Is it madness? Is It? Is It?!"
"I never wanted the throne, I only ever wanted to be your equal!"
"I could've done it, father! I could've done it! For you! For all of us!"
"No, Loki."
He remembered letting go of Odin's staff and falling, watching Asgard grow smaller and smaller.
"Loki…no! No!"
Loki remembered hearing his broth-no, Thor's voice calling his name as he fell from Asgard. Tears flowed silently from Loki's emerald eyes as he slipped into unconsciousness.

The Doctor sat leaning against the TARDIS wall. Amy and Rory where gone. The Girl Who Waited and The Last Centurion. Gone. Just like that. And River had said she's travel with him anywhere, just not all the time. He was alone. Again. It always ended like this, his companions would travel with him for a time, then something would happen or they would ask to go home. No one ever stayed long. The Doctor could feel his hearts breaking as held back tears.
Something popped up on the screen. They were on a collision course with another object. He didn't know what would be out there in the Vortex, but he didn't care. Nothing mattered now. Amelia Pond, his sweet, sweet Amy, was gone. Something hit the TARDIS with a soft thump. The Doctor stood and made his way to the doors, opening them, not caring what might come in. What came in was a humanoid figure wearing strange clothing that appeared to consist mainly of armor and leather and had a color scheme of black, forest green, and gold. The Doctor had a feeling he'd seen clothing like this but couldn't quite place where. The figure had obviously been out in the Vortex for quite a while, how he'd survived the Doctor had no idea. Emerald eyes few open as the Doctor crouched beside the person. Those eyes were familiar, but the Doctor couldn't quite reme—yes, he remembered now.
"Loki?" The Doctor asked softly, he'd only met one young boy with eyes as green as the ones that stared up at him.
"H-how do you know me?" the young Asgardian asked.
"Loki, I'm the Doctor." The Doctor replied, realizing how long it had been since he had taken the Ponds to Asgard where they had met the two young princes.
Loki's emerald eyes widened. "Doctor? Where are your companions? The Centurion and red headed one?"
The Doctor looked down, "T-they…they're gone…"
Loki, who had managed to sit up and was leaning against the wall, also looked down. He had liked Amy, she'd been kind to him.
"What happened to you?" The Doctor asked, noticing the bruises and scratches that marred Loki's pale skin.
Loki looked at him, emerald eyes meeting blue grey eyes. "What do you mean?"
"Why were you in the Vortex? Why are you not in Asgard?" The Doctor asked.
"I-I'm not Asgardian, I don't belong there." Loki murmured softly.
The Doctor frowned, confused and Loki noticed.
"Odin adopted me, after the war with the Frost Giants, he…he found a baby in the temple…"
"You were the baby, weren't you?" The Doctor asked, guessing the rest of the story. "And Odin raised you and Thor as brothers."
Loki nodded. "After I found out…I-I tried to destroy Jotunheim. I tried to destroy my own kind."
