Chapter 1: Meeting

-Olivia-

My best friend and I were in Hot Topic when a huge explosion shook the ground. I looked around, worried. Juliet, my ginger bestie and adopted sister, furrowed her brow in confusion. We walked out of the store and into the mall.

All of the shoppers stood still, staring at the two men who stood in the middle of a small crater in the center of the surrounding food court. "Well? What are you waiting for?" one of them spoke, his suave voice echoing off the vaulted glass ceilings. A scream pierced the air and everyone (except me and Juliet) bolted out of the food court and disappeared from sight. The owner of the suave voice ran his hands through his long-ish black hair and sighed. His dark green eyes wandered the almost empty food court until they found me and Juliet. "Waiting for an invitation? If you would~"

"No," I said, crossing my arms. He wasn't going to tell me what to do! So I stood there, having a staring competition with some weird guy dressed as Loki.

"You dare oppose me? The great Loki Laufeyson? I~"

"Great? Ha! The last time you even tried to be great, you got your butt wooped by a group of heroes… so, yes, I oppose you, Loki," I said. "Like I believe you're the actual god of Mischief," I muttered, rolling my eyes. Suddenly, the guy disappeared and then reappeared right in front of me. I yelped and stepped back in surprise. He laughed maliciously and stepped back, looking at my shirt. He did a double take.

"Is that me…on your shirt?!" he said. I nodded, re-crossing my falling arms.

"Yeah, so?" I said, crossing one leg over the other. He just chuckled and walked over to his brother, who was just waking up.

"Brother! I have found ourselves some… friends," Loki smirked.
