Wow it has been forever since I posted the last chapter, and I apologise for that. Aslo apologise for the length of this chapter, I wish it was longer, but it is what it is.

Anyway, I am at least happy with how it turned out. And even if nothing much happened, I am trying to build their relationship, and ease into some of the things that happens during the first Thor movie, and also explain some of the things in my second story about Loki. That's all I can say.
The creating story is from the mythology, just mixing it with the marvel story, just as in the other story. The B.O.W. and Wesker are from Resident Evil.

I can't promise when the next chapter will be out, hope soon, but yeah have other things to write so can't promise that.

And as always, thank you for reading and reviewing, hope you enjoy :)

"Do you wish seeing the castle?" Loki turned towards the woman as he asked, and she lifted her gaze from the book she was reading. "Imagine seeing nothing but this wall make you restless"
For a second he thought he saw surprise in her eyes, as he had understood her without words. It was of course only speculations from his part, but he couldn't hinder himself from wondering if he was right.
"It would be educational if nothing else" she closed the book and stood up, slowly as she was still hurt. He had noticed that the pain had reduced, but was far from gone. When she stood by his side, he opened the door, allowing her to leave before him.
"Any particular part of the castle you wish to see?"
"Anything you wish to show me will do" As she said those words it didn't sound like she was uninterested, rather as she wished to see the parts he preferred. He was once again taken by her ways, as his thoughts mattered, as she saw him.
"Than allow me to show you the library" Loki smiled, he had a collection of books in his chambers, not hindering him from visit the library from time to time.

He studied Cara as she was walking between the shelfs, studying the books. She seemed to be as interested in them as he himself was.
"I haven't seen this amount of book in the longest time, thank you for showing them to me" she gave him a smile before she returned towards the books. Seeing how carefree and happy she became, he felt like it was the right decision coming here. He had tried showing people the library in the past, but they didn't seem to understand what he saw, something Cara seemed to do, without almost any words.
"Feel free to borrow any book that caught your interest"
"I fear that I would stay here forever if I did that" she answered him with a laugh and for a second he wondered that would be something bad, but he kept the question to himself, only nodded in response, as he took a book and placed himself in one of the chairs. However; he was watching Cara more than he read the book, finding her more fascinating than the writing, something he would deny and say he only watched her, saying he only kept an eye on her due to her injuries. As she walked between the shelfs, reaching for different books, he couldn't tell of she knew that he looked and pretended not to, or if she was as absorbed into the books as he could be.

Loki followed her with his eyes as she walked towards him and sat down in the chair next to him, surprising him. She could place herself wherever she wished in the room, yet she placed herself next to him. Maybe she did it to be polite, or because she wished to know when he left having no desire to be left behind, he didn't ask seeing it was a strange thing to wonder about.
"Which one caught your interest?" he asked and she lifted the book so he could see, Aesir history. He gave her a questioning look, seeing the book mostly contained years and names, not making sense to anyone outside their realm.
"I wish to learn something about this world, as I am being forced to stay" she only explained, and yet despite that he wasn't the one forcing her to stay, it still hurt hearing her say that.
"I could give you a history lesson if you please" She turned towards him and he thought she seemed surprised that he offered.
"I am more than sure that you have better ways to spend your time"
"At the moment I do not. But if you prefer the books, I won't hold it against you" he gave her one last look, leaving her to think about his offer, something she seemed to do as he tried to read his book.
"I would like a history lesson" he looked up from the book and nodded, even giving her a smile as he stood up.
"Let me show you the realm as I tell our history" she nodded and soon stood next to him, as she followed him.

"The creation of all the realms are a complicated and somewhat obscured history. Before everything you see here was created, there was only the gaping abyss of Ginnungagap. This was placed between the homeland of Muspelheim and Niflheim. Seeing respective realm is represented of fire and ice, they crept toward each other until they met in the abyss. The fire melted the ice, the drops was formed into Ymir, a destructive giant being somewhat godlike, and from him more giants was born. As the ice melted into a cox, Audhumla, who gave Ymir milk, and as she was nourished by salt-licks in the ice, she slowly uncovered Buir, being the first Aesir. He got a son named Bor, my grandfather, who later with his wife gave birth to Odin, my father and his two brothers. Together the siblings slew Ymir, and from the corpse they created the world and their different realms, Midgard being one of them. They created the first humans Ask and Embla" Loki stopped as they reached one of the balcony's watching out over the realm. He studied her as she went over the information he had told her. "Are your world created in a similar way?"
She turned towards him for a short second before she turned to view the city.
"Depends on who you ask. It all comes down to beliefs. Some think God, often in different ways and forms created the world. Other believe in a scientific way."
"What do you believe in?" he wondered, especially since her answer wasn't really an answer.
"Don't know. I have met enough gods to know what they are capable off, and to know they are real" she started and he wondered what other gods she had met, just as it explained how she didn't seem to react when he informed her that he was a god. "I have also witnessed great science, knowing that it can do wonders. But to be honest, I actually care very little about my world, avoiding it as much as I can"
Despite that most of his people despised him, and he often felt like he was supposed to be elsewhere, he would never avoid his world, loving it, even caring about it to some extent. He wondered what could make someone turn away from their world, not even sounding sad about it. But even if he asked he knew that wasn't something she would answer.
"Shall we continue?" he asked, and his voice seemed to hinder her thoughts and she nodded as they turned away, continuing walking down a corridor.

"All the realms have different history, yet they are connected through Yggdrasil, and all father, which is my father. The…" Loki didn't get the chance to continue before the corridor was filled with dust coming from a wall that had burst. Loki turned towards the cloud expecting to see his idiotic brother, being far from the first time he would have miss judge a landing, crashing into whatever crossed his path, but he soon saw something different. He couldn't remember seeing such a creature before. He studied the large and tall thing, wearing a trench coat, missing parts of its skin around its face, seeing it was armed with for him unfamiliar weapon, and that he was covered in dust he came to the conclusion that it had teared down part of the wall.
"Fuck" he turned towards Cara, surprised by both her choice of word, and that she seemed to know what the creature was. But seeing that she had been approached by different men before, originate from at least another dimension. Maybe this creature was common from where she had encountered it.
"S.T.A.R.S." the creature said looking at Cara before it rushed towards her. Loki saw how the magic left her hands, aiming at the creature, Loki only observed seeing that she had it under control. However; he wasn't the only one surprised when the spell had no effect on the creature and it only continued rushing towards them, and he felt how she grabbed him, pushing him out if it's way. She tried another spell but seeing that it had no effect either Loki watched as he came to the conclusion he needed to help her.
"So you are fucking immune to magic, thanks dad" he voice said sarcastically and Loki only smirked as he made two knifes appear in his hand. He had defeated creatures worse than that. And he rushed towards it, leaping forward soon having the knifes piercings it's chest. He turned towards Cara for a second, wishing to see that she was unhurt when he felt how the creature moved, only to soon grab him by his throat, before throwing him to the side, and he felt how some of his bones cracked. He was taken by surprise, seeing that his blades still pierced the creature and how it could move, seeing to be unaffected by it. His eyes wondered towards Cara who seemed less concerned then when she met some of the mages, and he guessed it was because she knew what the creature was. The large beast rushed towards her and she avoided him, but he could tell she was hindered by her previous wounds, something the beast seemed to notice as well, stepping up his pace and attacks. Loki saw how Cara summoned some sort of pistols and aimed at the creature before she fired. He saw that the creature reacted but it didn't hinder it from attacking her again. Loki tried to stand up, wishing to assist her, but seeing how a few of his ribs were broken he would be in her way. He could almost laugh over the fact that he had wondered if he could help her, where she was handing herself more than well, and he was laying as a crippled at the side, incapable of doing anything. He should have been able to handle the creature, but he understood that from the power behind the thrust was meant to kill, and if he had been a mortal he would have been dead. But as he came to that understanding he became worried for the woman once more. He was unsure of how much she could handle, knowing she had the power to heal, however she was yet hurt and he made a calculated guess that if she wouldn't die from a hit, she would be severely injured. If the creature had been affected by magic he could have assisted her from where he was, but all he could do was watch as she continued firing towards the creature. He was far from an expert at Midgard's weapon, however he thought of it as strange seeing that the creature seemed unaffected no matter how much Cara fired. For a second he even wondered where his brother had disappeared to. In any other situation Thor would be in his way, appearing whenever he didn't wish to, but now, when he for once wished to see the big oaf, he was nowhere to be seen. The shoots echoed through the corridors, and in that second he even wished for those jokes to guards to show up. They were there to protect them, yet they all had disappeared as he walked down the corridor as so many times before. Sometimes he wondered if they scattered when he come close, whishing something would happen to him. Useless all of them, he would let them knew when he met them. With all of them absent Cara was forced to deal with the situation all herself, but as he watched her he could tell that she didn't thought to much about it, being used to do that, just like he was. He never expected help from anyone, learned that rarely anyone offered or gave it to him, the exception was his brother and mother, but even if he knew they did it out of love, he couldn't hinder himself from thinking they did it because they had to. He felt that the exception of that rule was the woman in front of him. She had helped him without a reason, not at least one he could find, and she hadn't expected anything in return, even refusing as he offered. She hadn't even asked for his help when the creature appeared, and maybe she had known how it would end, seeing how he ended up. He knew she didn't wish to see anyone else hurt or killed, maybe that was the simply reason for her not to ask, avoiding it all. Or maybe she simply didn't trust her life in anyone else hands, something he understood, he wouldn't place his life in the hands of those lowlifes around him, and for a second he wondered if that was how she thought as well. He sincerely hoped that wasn't true, seeing she treated him different from everyone else, however he couldn't tell how she normally treated people she thought less off. But he got remembered how she spoke to Thor and his friends, seeing it was a difference he chose to believe she didn't saw him as a lowlife at least.

He had been so occupied with his thoughts that he hadn't observed that the creature seemed to be taken by the shots fired at it. Seeing that it had slowed down, to some extent made him pleased seeing that it gave Cara a chance to take it down and surviving. However; he got worried seeing how she started rushing towards it, he understood she knew something he didn't know, but seeing that the creature rushed towards her as well he became worried. He saw how it raised its weapon aiming at her, and she avoided it at the last second by jumping into the air, passing over the creature and she fired into its brain. He saw that the landing wasn't as easy on her, hearing how she took a deep breath, most likely feeling the pain due to her injuries. The creature turned towards her, slowly and Cara reloaded her weapons, but it wasn't needed as the creature fell down, yet she fired a few extra shots into it and he couldn't do anything else then smile, she really was clever. He would most like have done the same, wishing to make sure it was ended, his brother would never have done it. He wouldn't have noticed that it was alive until he tried to pose with it and it attacked him. It was lucky for Thor that he was immortal, otherwise he would have died out of stupidity a long time ago.

When she had made sure the creature was dead she walked over to him and he sat up, trying not to show the pain he felt.
"That was utterly stupid" she gave him a cold look, but he understood that it wasn't because she despised him, no it rather felt like it was out of worry.
"Are you unhurt?" he asked instead and she blinked a few times. "You seemed to be taken by the landing"
"I am alright, I have been in worse states, and it's not the first time I fight similar creatures" she answered and once again he was taken by the fact that she didn't seem to worry people. She answered vaguely, not because she tried to be strong, no because she wished for people to think she was alright.
"What is it?" he asked and tried to stand up but she gave him a look that made him stay as she crouched down in front of him.
"It's a Bio Organic Weapon called the Nemesis" she explained, but the words had little meaning to him.
"Did your father create it?" he asked, wondering since she had thanked him in a sarcastic way.
"No, he only made it resistance to magic" she informed him as she gave him a look before she carefully touched his head, to his surprise, but he soon saw blood on her fingers. He hadn't even noticed that he was bleeding.
"Than who created it?"
"One of my late husbands did, in a way. He created the base if comes from"
"He sent this after you?"
"No"
"Are you sure?" Loki met her eyes and for a second she saw anger in them, not taking lightly that he asked that, and he regretted it.
"Yes, not only because he is dead. And yes he is dead because I buried him, but he also despised my father over everything, and would never aid him in hurting me" she explained and he was about to say something "Sit still"
He could soon feel magic leaving her hands, healing the wound. Her healing magic was different from his mothers, it wasn't unpleasant, just strange.

He could soon hear step's approaching and he turned to see his mother approaching, followed by some surprised guards. He wasn't surprised seeing them return once it was over.
"What happened?" his mother was clearly worried, looking at them both.
"It's my fault your highness" Cara turned towards her when his wound had healed. "It was here for me and came after me"
"Don't be ridicules, I have myself to blame. I attacked it, being a bit cocky that I could handle it" Loki turned towards his mother and soon she laughed.
"I can't remember when the last time you uttered that you were to cocky" she stroked his cheek and he couldn't help but smile towards her. "Are your hurt elsewhere? And are you unhurt Cara?"
"I am your highness" she only answered and Loki chose not to comment it.
"And you Loki?"
"A bit sour, and possible a broken ribs, but nothing mayor" he smiled towards his mother and she shook her head, as he always had when he and Thor came to her injured. None of them wished to worry her, and Odin also told them that a warrior should withstand pain, and not seek help like a child, but he knew his mother didn't agree with that, and in his early days Loki had sought out his mother, but had stopped when his father got disappointed.
"Men" Cara muttered rolling her eyes and Frigga looked at her before she laughed, and Loki blinked a few time in surprise until he felt how his mother healed him, and he could soon stand. He watched as Cara walked over to the creature once more and he turned towards his mother who didn't understood her actions more than he did.
"I am just pleased your brother wasn't here. The devastation would be enormous" Frigga smiled and Loki understood what she meant. If his brother encountered the creature, he would most likely have destroyed all of the corridor and more before it was dead. He answered his mother with a smile before he turned towards Cara, being wondering what she did, and he couldn't hinder himself from walking over.

"I am far from an expert, but I am sure that you killed it" he tried, giving her a smile and she turned towards him, replaying with a smile of her own.
"It's dead without a doubt" she answered before turning towards it once more. "I only got lost in memories, missing him"
Loki understood that she didn't meant the monster, seeing that would have been ridicules, and he guessed she talked about the man she had been married too.
"It's almost insane after all the bat shit crazy things he dragged me through, this creature isn't even the worst. But we were always there for each other, thrown into each other's craziness. He even made himself a god and tried to give me the world" she said those words with a small laugh and Loki couldn't help from feeling a bit jealous, seeing how fondly she spoke of the man, seeing he couldn't remember the last time someone spoke of him that way, who wasn't his mother.
"He tried to give you the world?" Loki asked and she smiled.
"In a way yes. He was a bit extreme, and I told him that I didn't need the world, I would support him taking it over, but I was fine as long as he was by my side" she blinked a few times, before she seemed to collect herself, and distance herself in a way Loki hadn't seen before. Or it was rather that he hadn't seen the side she just showed, so seeing her go back to what he thought of as normal, felt like she distanced herself. "It's in the past, so it doesn't matter"
It was obvious that it mattered, but he chose not to comment on it, not being his place to do so.
"Unless you or we are needed here to clean up, would it be possible for us to continue the tour and lesson?" she asked and he turned towards his mother who smiled, and he knew she would handle the rest.
"If that's what you wishes for, it's possible" he answered her, understanding that she sought a distraction and he was willing to give her one.
"I would be lovely" she gave him a honest smile, but he could now see the different from her other smile, but he smiled back none the less as they continued walking.

"Loki" Thor's voice echoed throughout the hallway, making the guards and people there turn towards their golden prince, smiling as they did so. Thor came over and took him into his arm, lifting him from the ground.
"Let me down your big oaf" Loki demanded, just as Thor's friend caught up with them, and they laughed as Thor placed him on the ground once more.
"We had a marvellous adventure brother, it's ashame that you missed out"
"I am sure it was" he only stated as Thor placed an arm around his shoulders.
"Let me tell you about it"
"We were in the middle of a history lesson" those words made Thor turn towards Cara, as he had forgotten about her.
"Oh" he said first before he laughed. "This is a history, so I can have a lesson"
Loki couldn't even answer Thor before he started pulling him towards the common room, he gave Cara an excusing look however she just smiled towards him and followed.

Loki tried to pretend he cared about what Thor told him, but he wasn't. For him it was just another war story, no different from the others. But Thor told it as it was the most important day in his life, like their victory had made any difference. It was lucky that he had learned how to pretend that he listened, and it helped that Thor was oblivious most of the time. Instead of hearing what his brother said he studied Cara, who seemed to be even less interested than he was, and he founded that fascinating. She was different from every other woman being in here, they were always interested in his brother's words, more or less throwing themselves over him. Cara looked like she thought Thor's story to be childish, and maybe she did, seeing she could travel between different worlds.
"Who is she?" Fandral leaned closer and Loki turned towards the blonde's direction, seeing that he was sitting closer than he first thought.
"She is a fellow mage from earth, and my guest" he simply answered.
"Why?"
"Are you asking why she would want to be my guest? Or why I accepted her as my guest?"
"Why you accepted her, because everyone would want to be your guest Loki. I would be your guest everyday" Fandral said as he leaned closer and Loki gave him a warning look.
"I accepted her as my guest because she interests me, and it's not too often I meet other mages." He stated, it wasn't a lie, but part from the whole truth.
"But she is so rude" Fandral tried, clearly not being able to state something that wrong with Cara. Loki turned towards the woman, he could understand why the other saw her as rude, but she had been nothing but polite towards him, and when she hadn't he had himself to blame. As she could feel that he looked at her, she turned towards him, studying him and Fandral, but he couldn't tell what she thought.
"Lady Cara, you aren't listening" Thor stopped and the woman turned towards him.
"I am not. I founded your story rather boring, and I rather continue with history lesson I was given" she turned back towards Loki who smirked as he stood up.
"Rude" Fandral stated and Loki turned towards him.
"You were the one interrupting us, so maybe you are the one who should be stated as rude" he gave him a schooling look before he left the room with Cara.

"You seemed pleased" Loki turned towards Cara where they was walking.
"I admit it's fascinating seeing how little you are affected by Thor's words, it rarely happens" upon hearing those words she laughed a warm laugh.
"He reminds me of other people I have encountered, who always told me similar stories, which wasn't entertaining either. Going into war because it's fun, and then bragging about the victories, it's childish if nothing else"
Loki blinked a few times, surprised hearing someone else thinking the same. He had never seen the entertaining in "playing" war as Thor and his friends did, and the rest of the kingdom. He knew it was important to be a strong warrior, but in a time of peace, war was lacking, something that should be seen as a good thing. But then seek it out, proving that you are a warrior, bragging about it later, irritated him. Odin had told them when they were young, that a wise king never sought a war, but was always prepared for it. Thor lived the opposite, he always sought the war, but he would never be prepared for it, if it struck their home, and yet Odin encouraged him, praising him over and over, just as he almost taunted him for not seeking a fight. Loki was often confused by his father's words, and seeing how Thor got praised for fighting, that was the reason he accompanied them from time to time, however that didn't seem to please his father either. Loki had just started to accept that Odin wasn't pleased by his actions since he didn't seek a fight often enough, and when he did he used magic. Loki wouldn't change that, since it made his mother proud. But hearing that someone else thought just like him was pleasing and strange.
"I am glad you have the intellect to see it like that, few people around here does"
"Not surprising seeing how your culture is built around a warrior tradition" Loki rarely thought about that. He was fully aware that different society had different cultures, however he rarely thought about how his worked. But seeing Cara was from another world, and wasn't found of Asguard's culture, she must it see it as even more stupid. Having her around really was interesting and seeing how she surprised the others was pleasing, even if he got as surprised by her actions as well.
"Don't think about it"
"Are you able to read minds?" he asked, he had got that feeling more than once.
"I am not. I am only able to hinder people from reading mine. No I read people, their expressions, body languages and listen to their voices when they say things. It's easier to stay alive that way" He nodded, he did the same, most likely for other reasons than she did, he did it out of boredom. But she was difficult to read, almost impossible, and he normally was as well, yet she seemed to be able to read him without a problem. "You are more difficult to read than others, if that's what worries you"
"I am far from worried, rather surprised, seeing few people can read me" he admitted and she gave him a small smile.
"I say a reason for that is that people really don't see you" she shrugged her shoulders, and he couldn't argue with her, compared to others it felt like she saw him.
"It's because they find Thor more interesting" Loki informed her and for a second he thought he saw sorrow in her eyes, before she shook her head.
"Far too many people are impressed by muscles, words about courage and a flashy smile, seeking, if only a few minutes, that sweet sweet fame"
"Is that how it was for you?" he asked, wondering if that was why she disliked that behaviour. At first she only looked at him, blinking before she laughed, not a warm happy laugh, no it was cold and distance, and he regretted asking her.
"No. When I was young I was, um let's say a mysterious and often disliked child. I had friends, good friends so it wasn't like I was alone. But as time passed and people got to know who my father was, they avoided me at best, hated me the most and tried to kill me at worst. Still had a few good friends, but well things happened and I ended up almost alone, which didn't make me a nicer person. No, to be honest I was a bitch, to put it mildly. And as time passed, well I got a bit nicer, or learned to pretend to be, so either I became a mystic person people liked to get to know, or the woman people tried to own. Rarely something in-between. So no people rarely wished to stand in my fame, because the times I got famous enough for people to know, well it was rarely for something good"

Loki had stopped, not only because she was honest with him, or rather because she told him something about herself, something personal. People rarely did that, not trusting him enough. And it was true that her story created more questions than it answered, but what surprised him most was how much that story reminded him of his own. Not all of it, but enough parts to make him wonder what she really had been through.
"I apologise that you had to go through such things" he stated, without knowing what it really was.
"That is hardly something you are to blame for" she gave him a small smile, and it made him feel better. He was aware that he wasn't to blame for it, yet he felt like it wasn't right that she had to go through something similar to what he went through. But seeing her smile towards him made him feel better. "However, I can apologise for enter your life, seeing that when I am around you, you get caught up in my mess, and now being attacked"
"I have myself to blame for being attacked" he started and she gave him a look that informed him that she agreed, even if she had apologised. "And I am not to found of the idea of leaving you alone, forcing you to deal with it all"
"It's what I often does. People in my past has helped me, but with things out of their worlds, like magic, creatures like the one we met and other things, they can't do much, besides getting killed."
"Your husband managed to handle that creature, meaning he could handle a lot, if I am not mistaken?"
"The reason he could handle creatures like that was because he wasn't fully human, injected with the same virus as some of the creatures, just not turning into a monster. However; it didn't help him in the end, since death always come to you one way or another, age being the final way if nothing else comes for you first"
"How old are you. I may be wrong here, since your earth is different from ours, but humans only live for a short time" at least compared to them, but the way she spoke made it sound like age was a distance thing, hard to achieve, as other things may come for you first. It maybe because she was hunted, but still.
"Can't remember, around thousand, a bit less maybe" she only stated, and Loki wondered if that was something you normally forgot about. He was a few hundred years older than her, but he was still sure about his age.
"That's not a common thing with Midgardians is it?"
"No, it's due to my healing magic"
"Do your father have the same magic?" he wondered, seeing that he was alive as well.
"No, he has placed part of his soul in objects, making him immortal as long as those aren't destroyed. And magic also moves different in different worlds. That can be a minute her can be hundreds of years in another world"
Loki nodded, the concept of time in different world had never occurred to him. Mostly because the concept of different world never had. He wondered if she kept track of it, or just went with it as she entered a new world, but he chose not to ask, feeling it wasn't the right time to do so. He also couldn't stop himself from wonder about the father, but seeing that it was a sensitive matter, he chose not to ask about that either, and he could tell that she was relieved by that. However; she raised so many questions, but for everything he got to know, she felt more like a stranger than ever. They were strangers, yet she understood him better than most, to a level that almost confused him, but he didn't think too much about it, or wished to change it, finding it, if nothing else interesting. He gave her a glance, seeing that she studied him as well, but she didn't say anything as they continued walking through the palace. He often wondered what she thought or how she really was. When she had talked about her late husband he had seen another side of her, seeing she was even more of a stranger to him, but he really wished to get and know her. Seeing she challenged him intellectual, raised questions he wished to know the answers to, and how she saw things different from everyone, even himself sometimes was interesting.
"You wish for something to eat?" he asked, seeing the hadn't eaten since early in the morning, and he knew Cara didn't think about it, and he felt that he had to, to some extent.
"It would be pleasant" she answered and he gave her a small smile, as he told a guard to bring some food to his quarters, as he started guiding Cara back.
