Hey everyone! This chapter may not make complete sense at this moment in time, but I promise you, if you keep reading, all will become clear.
Anyway :) I hope you enjoy sweeties! Please review, ENJOY ^.^
The pale, winter sun, sprayed veils of light through the cream curtains hanging in Nessa's room.
She peeled back her quilted bed cover and moved across the creaky wooden floor to her bathroom.
She took a quick shower, inhaling the scent of pine, that perfumed the house from the open window.
Once she unwillingly turned off the shower and pulled on some plain clothes, she let her long dark brown hair tumble down her back and dry as it wished.
Nessa was almost surprised when she walked into her living room.
She had forgotten how she had leant her sofa to the random man who came in, in the night . She felt slightly bad for him, watching him sleep awkwardly. I should have probably offered my bed instead and slept on the sofa, she thought to herself.
"Hey, wake up." She whispered, prodding his forehead.
Thor stirred and opened a bloodshot eye, still craving sleep.
"Mind?" Nessa asked, the remote pointed at the TV.
He shook his head.
The news flashed onto the screen as Neesa took a seat at the dining room table at the back of the room.
Local shopping center, Cabot Circus has been destroyed in the night from what witnesses say was a giant thunderstorm.
The screen flashed to a middle aged man. He looked like he hadn't slept.
"It was massive! I was just walking down the road, coming home from the pub and suddenly I walked into this massive thunder storm. It was so strong I was pinned the wall behind me. I could see a man being thrown in the air too. He must've really hurt himself. The storm took the roof off the shopping center and then the walls too."
The screen swapped back to the reporter in the studio.
Police are trying to find any bodies inside, including the missing body that several people have witnessed flying though the sky. We will keep you updated online. This is Rebecca Morse, reporting for BBC news at 9.
Nessa switched the TV off. She could feel her jaw drop.
"Oh my gosh!" She whispered, turning to Thor, who was now sat up on the sofa, watching interested.
"That's exactly what happened to my back field."
Thor smiled to himself.
"What!" Asked Nessa.
"Brother." He said out loud.
"Brother?"
"Can you take me there?"
"To the place on the news?"
"Yes."
"Why do you want to go?" Nessa asked, confused.
"My brother may be there."
"Your brother?"
"Yes, I lost him."
Nessa, considered for a moment, she awkwardly played with the hem of her top.
"I guess I could take you." She smiled.
She wanted to help this man, he seemed kind and she was sure he wasn't a drunk.
"Let me get my coat and keys." She said walking out the room and into the hall. She fixed her hair in the mirror by the door and then pulled on her coat and shoes.
Thor sat quietly in the car seat next to Nessa.
She could feel his eyes staring at her but she couldn't bring her head to turn and smile.
"You are very kind for doing this." He said, still smiling at her.
"It's okay." She replied. "I want you to find your brother."
He smiled back at her again, and then directed his look out the car window at the small houses and field they were passing.
"What's your brothers name?"
"Loki."
"You both have vary unusual names."
"They're names of Viking Gods."
"Your parents must have been very interesting." Nessa smiled.
Thor didn't reply, but sadly chuckled to himself.
Nessa pulled the car up in a near by car park and helped Thor open the door.
"Where does he live?"Nessa asked.
Thor spun on the spot observing all the buildings around him.
"There." He said pointing to a block of flats.
Thor took Nessa's small hand and ran towards the tall, grey building.
Once inside he began looking round the bottom floor.
The building was deserted and halfway through construction. The sun danced through where the windows will be placed, exposing the brick dust that made them both cough.
"Up there." He said pointing up a ladder in the middle of the half-built flats.
"Are we aloud up there?" Nessa asked, looking around nervously.
"We shouldn't be here."
"It is fine, stay there." Thor said, climbing up the ladder.
Nessa waited until he was out of site up the ladder.
She paused for a second. "Argh, what the hell." She said, pushing her hair behind her ears and rolling her sleeves up. She gripped onto the cold, metal ladder and began to climb up after Thor. The cold night had coated the cold metal in a thin crust of ice. Nessa pulled her hand back quickly from the cold sting it shocked her with.
"Do not follow me." Thor said sternly, looking back over his shoulder from a few spaces up the ladder.
Nessa ignored Thor and carried on climbing after him.
She came to a scaffolding ledge and pulled her self up after Thor, who looked at her and sighed.
A pale, thin man was sat against the wall of the ledge his eyes closed. He was wearing black clothes that hung off his body, his long dark hair flopped over his ghostly, hollow, face.
"Brother." Thor said, resting a hand on Loki's shoulder.
Loki flinched away at his touch, his eyes flashing open to a crystal blue stare.
His pale lips pursed together tightly, his heavy eye brows slanted in anger.
"Brother."Thor tried again.
"Do not come near me." Loki snarled.
"You are injured." Thor said, concerned."
Loki continued his piercing stare, his eyes closing into slits.
"Brother, I am sorry." Thor said calmly." If I knew this would have happened I would never have prevailed on the course I chose."
"It is too late." Loki snapped back.
"I'll just head down." Nessa said awkwardly.
Loki and Thor both turned there heads, forgetting that she was still at top of the ladder.
"Nessa, I suggest you go back down." Thor said.
Loki stared at Nessa. His glare pierced hers and she quickly turned on her tail and scurried back down the ladder.
Thor sat down next to Loki, who didn't appreciate the close company.
"I did not know that releasing Hela would have this conclusion." Thor said lowering his head.
"Maybe you should have used what little brain you contain , to think your childish plan through." Loki grimaced.
Thor bowed his head in shame again. "I am sorry."
"Apologise will not take back the scars you have caused."
"I would like to remind you, brother, she is your sister and that you are not so perfect yourself."
"I redeemed myself, from your prison. I have paid my penalty. Hela has not earned her redemption, she was put in solitude for a reason. "
"Loki! She is your cousin, she has done no evil unlike the blood that does not clean off your hands."
"No, she is no family of mine."
"We have both done wrong, we both need reconciliation. If we accept that and learn our wrongs, we may be permitted home." Thor said quietly.
"We have no home."
"Yes we do, you just choose to deny it."
"I do not choose. I have no choice."
"You always have a choice."
"Not this time."
"There will be a way." Thor said in desperation.
Loki shifted. "What I did was not wrong. Freedom is a lie."
"No Loki, you are still sick."
"I am not sick."
"Loki, have you seen yourself, you are a shadow of your former spirit."
Loki stayed silent.
"You need rest. Then we must find Hela."
Loki scowled like a child.
"Loki!"
"No."
"Loki, don't be a child." Thor said angrily.
Loki placed his hands on the wall and pull himself up. His legs were week and could only just hold his weight.
"Need me to carry you down the ladder.." Thor joked, straining a laugh.
Loki replied with another glare.
Thor was surprised to see Nessa still at the bottom floor.
"You are still here?" He asked.
Nessa nodded her head slowly. She thought this was what she was supposed to do and instantly felt uncomfortable.
"I could always go...?" She started.
"Me and my brother will need a place to stay." Thor asked.
Loki stirred, uncomfortably, which Neesa noticed and instantly felt even more uncomfortable.
"Umm.. I'm sure I can arrange something." Nessa stuttered, slightly unsure whether this was a good idea.
"I guess you can stay." She said. A slight wobble of conflict in her voice.
"Good." Thor smiled, as warmly as he could manage.
Nessa could not keep her eyes of how ill Loki looked, which he noticed and tried to ignore.
"Come." Nessa said kindly, showing the way to the car, and at that moment, Loki passed out.
Thanks for reading this chapter. I'm glad Loki is now in the story and I have many great plans for future chapters.
I am sorry if the whole 'Hela' character does not make all that much sense at the moment but I promise her story line will be revealed shortly.
Please leave me a review!
Much love x
