AN: I don't own Thor. I know who knew right? Voila chapter 6.

"What am I Father?'

Silence had filled the castle it seemed. Even the birds stopped their chirping. No one moved. No one dared breathe. It was absolute silence. Because all anyone could do was stare in pure horror at the frost giant standing in front of King Odin, who for the first time in his life looked weak and defeated.

Frigga and Thor had been invited to Odin's throne by Loki. He had told them how he had important news to give them. Curious, some servants and civilians had showed up as well for the Prince's announcement. Now a majority wished they had never come.

Frigga broke the silence, "Loki, Loki, my son, please, listen, we can explain, not like this son, just allow us–"

"No. You tell me now." Loki didn't spare her a glance. He simply spared at Odin who could not meet his eyes.

"What do you want to know?" Odin asked, his voice quiet, "It seems you already have learned something."

"Why? Why didn't you tell me what I was? What I am?"

"I told you who you were and still are. You are Prince Loki Odinson of Asga–"

"DO NOT CALL ME THAT! That being is a lie, he doesn't exist."

"What nonsense, he is standing in front of me. Loki you are my–"

"I am not your son."

"You are. You've always been."

"Then I suppose you are unaware of what a father even is."

"Loki!" Frigga interrupted, outraged, "Do you know to whom you speak? He is your father, you are his son!"

"No, my Queen," Frigga's eyes widened at his address, "My father is King Laufey. Have you met him? In Jotun they say I take after him. That we have a lot in common."

"I disagree Brother. You are nothing like that monster," Thor intervened.

Without looking at him, Loki replied, "I disagree as well. King Laufey did not live a lie."

Frigga's heart clenched and Odin roared, "YOU DID NOT LIVE A LIE! I gave you the gift of life, the best life any immortal could ever desire, and this is how you repay me? I saved you from death, prayed to keep you alive and content and you choose to repay me by calling me a liar? A deceiver? Give me one thing my kingdom didn't provide for you? You were never short of anything, you had every luxury a person could dream of. Your mother gave you love that the woman who gave you birth could not match and your brother has kept you in his shadow, by his side, protecting you from even yourself. We made you a prince. And you acknowledge that by creating this disgraceful ceremony where you stand their disrespecting me and my generosity? I did not hide anything from you. You found out based on your own foolishness; you should have never entered that vault."

As soon as Odin said this, he regretted his words, as did the now sobbing Frigga and Thor who could not look away from his brother's true form. He was upset with Odin as well.

But Odin had a reputation to preserve. He was a King before he was a father and he saw the disturbed looks of his people. They could not believe that he was at fault here; a king needed the trust of his people.

"Loki," Thor spoke up, "Brother, if this is your true nature, then so be it. You don't have to hide it, we will regard you the same way as before. Nothing has changed brother. Nothing."

A murmur of disagreement went through the now fearful crowd.

"But Brother," Loki finally gave Thor a glance, his eyes hard but his mouth curling upwards, "Everything has changed." Loki stared up at Odin once more, now glaring.

"King Odin, I thank you very much dear King for my life. I'd thank you more if you now give me my birthright."

Odin thought, as everyone did, that Loki was demanding the throne. Loki had made it clear; of the two brothers he was the one that desired the throne the most. Gasps broke the silence and soon guards were moving towards Loki, everyone stiff, as Frigga held her breathe and Thor twisted is hammer. Challenging the king for his throne, in any realm really, was considered suicide, or, politically, an act of war.

Odin believed that he might have lost his son. So dropping his flustered gestures and adopting a diplomatic wary look that was completely void of emotion, he told Loki, "Loki. I cannot give you the throne. You don't deserve it, and neither does your brother. If this is what you wished for, I'm afraid Asgard cannot be yours, not because you are not from here, because my son, you are, but due to your lack of age and wisdom, you cannot be king. As long as I live, Asgard will be mine to rule. I apologize for disappointing you but I recommend you let go of this illegitimate desire, for I worry that after this, you will not be reminded." The crowd hummed with relief and approval.

Loki smirked, giving Odin an almost grin. He stared at him with such intensity, the guards surrounding Odin tightened their hands on their weapons, ready to fight the frost giant.

"That's not the birthright I speak of my King." Odin blanched at that, and asked, now utterly perplexed "Then what do you speak of? Be clear my son."

"You found me, after the war, an innocent baby you felt the need to give life. Now I know my true form, and my story. That day, had you not intervened I would have had a very different future. I want that future Odin."

Odin ignored Loki's rude act of calling him simply Odin, and replied harshly, "The throne of Jotun is not for me to give. And if it's war you wish, I cannot allow you or –"

"Not a throne, that's not what I desire."

"What other future did you prefer than? What other life do you wish to live now?" Odin scoffed.

"Not life King. Death."

Frigga was the first, and only one to understand what Loki implied. She screamed as a confused Odin watched Loki transform back from his frost giant form, now no longer the blue monster he was a moment ago.

"That day, King Odin of Asgard, that miserable day you found me, I was dying. My birthright is to die. And my sole wish from you is to end this misery that my life has become. I no longer wish to live."

"Loki…I don't understand," Odin whispered, "Do you know what you are wishing for?"

"Death, King Odin," Loki said, now going down on one knee, eyeing Odin with intensity, "I wish for death.

"Kill me."
