CHAPTER 2
Skye was gone, there was a blinding light and… that was the end of it. It was like she'd never been there; the sheets had fallen down to the mattress and all the equipment cables were hanging draped across her bed with no use.
That wasn't what had happened in Skye's perspective; she was now lying on a cold hard slab with a little grey man stood, unblinking beside her. "Who are you?" She asked.
"I am Loki of the Asgard." The alien explained. That made Skye laugh, there was no way he was Loki. She'd seen the pictures; Loki was hot and looked a lot more human. "You find this amusing? I am unfamiliar with Earth customs and society. Forgive me for not laughing with you."
"You look nothing like Loki; he's a lot taller than you and is a lot better looking than you. You're little and grey." Skye explained. "Ward," she called out "you can stop messing with me now." She called as she stood up. The thing was the size of a child compared to her. "Tell this kid he can take off the mask!" She started walking around until she saw what looked to be a computer. She read the symbols effortlessly and was soon able to find out where she was.
"Why am I in orbit around earth?" She asked with a slight twinge of anger.
"You are the source of my experiment. I have enhanced you, given you many abilities that you would otherwise not possess." The little man walked over to her. "You were only a young child. I gave you knowledge of many technologies, buried in your subconscious. The symbols have meaning to you but they are not your language. I am currently speaking in my native tongue, and you are replying in the same manner. I gave you this. You can help fix my race."
Then there was another flash of light and she was stood facing the same grey alien but now she was on the opposite side of the console and he was moving the stones on top of it.
"Okay, okay. I get it; you like to keep your computer to yourself. I can't even believe that I have to call you Loki." She apologised.
"I am not Loki. I am Supreme Commander Thor of the High Asgardian fleet." The grey alien replied. "I have transported you here from Loki's ship. You are one of his experiments, one of the successful ones thankfully but I'm afraid that you were deprived of a normal life." The alien blinked it's strange, large black eyes at her. "I cannot return this to you however I can take you to the Stargate. Samantha Carter will find this most interesting indeed."
With that, she was consumed by the bright light and was with Thor in a grey room with a large table in the center. Sat around it were five men and two women. Both women had short hair, one blonde and the other brunette. Three of the men were younger, one a buff dark-skinned man and the other two had dark hair. There was a bald larger man who was obviously a high-ranking General and the other was a greying man who also appeared to be in authority. The greying man and the blonde woman were holding hands and so were one of the dark-haired man and the brunette woman.
"I swear I have no idea what's going on." She raised her hands in surrender.
"Thor buddy, who's your friend." The greying man asked. He had a surprisingly youthful voice, as if he'd never fully grown up.
"This is the result of one of Loki's successful experiments. She was originally a normal human baby but has been enhanced and allowed to develop on this planet at a normal rate. Loki was only released one earth cycle ago and I followed him here. She was damaged but has been fixed." With that, Thor beamed away and left Skye alone with the group of strangers. Only then did she notice two military personnel raise their weapons warily at her. She then noted the unsurprised looks on everyone's faces.
"I guess this happens a lot."
