When Loki awoke his room was flooded with light, it blinded him for a few seconds before his eyes adjusted. Loki saw Thor was sitting outside his room still, sometimes peering into the hole in the wall that use to be a door. As Loki slowly sat up he was caught by surprise by his brother.

"Loki!" Thor said, pure glee filled his voice, "You're awake. You haven't woken in two days brother." He quickly stood up, his face now more serious, "Now please take this barrier down, I wish to speak with you. We should also get you checked out to see if you're okay. It's not normal to sleep for two days."

Loki simply stared at his brother for a few moments, these words had caught him by surprise. He didn't realize he had slept so long, it had felt like a two hour nap at the most. He broke his gaze from his brother before attempting to stand up. He stood up and balanced for about thirty seconds before dropping to his knees, this Also caught Loki by surprise. He heard his brother call his name before he coughed once again and his vision was becoming black. He got rid of the barrier before he was unconscious. The last thing he saw was his brother running to his side.

Thor had a million thoughts running around in his head. He didn't know what was wrong with his brother but he wanted to help him. Thor also knew he would have a talk with Odin once he knew he brother was alright, and stable. Until then he wouldn't leave his side. Thor gingerly picked up Loki before cradling him close to his body, then he started to run. He ran the whole way to the healing rooms. Once he got there the nurses rushed to Thor taking Loki from his arms, a few of them took him back into a room. Thor was talking to one of the head nurses about what happened in the last days.

"I remember Me taking Loki to Father and then him leaving to his room. Once I got there I was blocked off by a magic barrier, then he slept for 2 days and three knights. When he woke up he tried to stand but he fell and passes out, that's all I know." Once he was done talking to the nurse he rushed to the room the other nurses took him. When he saw Loki he was horrified. Loki was so thin you could see his ribcage peeking out from beneath his skin. The color of his skin was a grey shade of white except for his arms and upper thighs, they were covered with scars and cuts in the deepest reds to light pinks. He also noticed Loki's nails have been chewed down to stubs and his hair was dull and lifeless. Loki looked like the ghost of himself.

"Prince Thor, do you know how all of these injuries happened?" A beautiful red haired nurse asked.

Thor paused for a moment, debating wither he should tell her or not. He eventually thought her to be trustworthy and told her, "My brother has done this to himself miss." Thor was monotone and broken looking. He loved his brother, and didn't like to see him suffer.

The nurse stared at him for a moment before going to the other side of the room to get some supplies. Thor sat watching every moment, making sure nothing bad happened to his brother. The team of nurses worked disinfecting Loki's wounds before sewing some shut to ensure healthy healing. Once they were done with that they wrapped his injuries in medical tape and gauze. Then they focused their attention to his weight, they figured he was starving due to him being unable to eat. They cleaned and fixed his stitches before giving him an IV so he would become hydrated and get nutrients. The head nurse checked all of their work before dismissing them, and telling Thor Loki was stable and well. After this news Thor hurried out to have a word with his father, one he didn't know how Odin would handle.

Loki had once again woken up to a brightly lit room, but this time he smelt anesthetic, not blood. He looked up, and found himself staring at just another unfamiliar ceiling. He fad woken up to many of these throughout his life. His arms were burning and tight, he looked down to see them covered with gauze and medical tape. His thoughts were groggy and slow, and his breathing was irregular, but his life was no longer in danger. Loki sighed and closed his eyes again before he heard yelling down the hall, it was Thor. He then heard and angry sounding Odin and a sobbing Frigga. Guilt fell over Loki, he didn't want this to happen, he didn't want to be more of a burden. He thought if he suffered alone he wouldn't bother them, but it was now occurring to him that he was going more harm than good. Loki turned to his side and lets small tears flow down his face, he couldn't do anything right. He couldn't even figure out to get out of the picture.

Loki heard the door open and light footsteps walking to him, he chose to ignore this and pretend to sleep. He didn't want to interact with anybody, especially his brother. But instead of his brother he smelt the light, comforting smell of Frigga. Loki quickly opened his eyes and looked up to see his mother crying over him. First he just stared at her, then he moved a hair out of her face, causing her to jump back.

"L-Loki, forgive me. Did I wake you?" Frigga struggled to say through her sobs. Loki shook he head and took her hand, letting a few more tears fall from his face. Frigga fell to her knees and held Loki's hands in hers. "Loki, my son. I love you so much, don't you ever forget that, okay?" She looked at Loki and fixed his hair, saying again. "Don't ever forget how much we love you." Loki was now sobbing, Frigga had pulled her son into a comforting embrace, holding him close. He then heard more footsteps coming to the room, Frigga quickly pulled away drying her eyes. Thor and Odin entered, Thor running to his brother, Odin standing next to the door.

"Loki, how are you?" Thor said quietly as he sat next to his brother on his bed. "You really worried me there earlier" Loki now saw tears forming in Thor's eyes. Loki looked away not wanting to see his brother cry. Then Odin spoke up.

"Loki. You have caused suffering to your brother and mother." Thor began scolding Loki before stopping to think of what to say next, "I did not think of you as selfish. I am disappointed." Frigga looked to Odin, disbelief in her eyes, and Thor was quickly very close to Odin, speaking his mind freely now.

"How dare you say that to him! Loki is obviously not well, and you are to blame! How could you say that to your own son?" Thor yelled to Odin, making Loki's ears ring.

Then Odin spoke, he only said eight words, but those eight words tore Loki apart. Loki finally knew he no longer had a place in the world, he was cast out and set aside by everyone. Odin said, "He is not my son, he never was."

There was an odd silence in the room, the only sound hears was Frigga's sobs. Thor looked to Loki, and knew something was wrong by the look on his face. Loki was crushed, broken. His eyes were misty, but he refused to cry. He only sat in silence before he disappeared in another cloud of green smoke.
