Loki's POV:

I woke up in my bed at Helas. I looked over to the clock, it read 08:00am. I smiled. This was the most sleep I've had since I was 3 years old. Crawling out of bed I put on the clothes Hela had left out for me.

A green jacket and black skinny jeans, with my black combat boots. I went downstairs to see Hela making breakfast. She looked up at me, "Morning sleepy head. Got a big day ahead of us. Eat up." She slid over a plate of bacon. She slid over some sauces. I thanked her and began to eat.

We sat in the car outside of court. Bruce and the others were there as were the staff that had known about me: Ms Lewis, Nick Fury and Phil. We got out of the car, Hela went to go speak to the rest. Bruce sneaked over and kissed me on the cheek as he hugged me. "We'll be there all the time. Remember that." I nodded. Whispering, "I love you." To each other we let go. Hearing the church chime 10 we stepped inside and soon we were guided to the court room. Hela sat at the front with Phil, he was acting as her lawyer. I had to sit behind some fences in benches with the rest. Odin was on the other side with Frigga and Thor. Odin sat at the front with a lawyer.

The judge was a big plump woman with bright red hair in straight strips. The jury was to the side. They were to state my future later on. I readjusted myself slightly. The judge banged the strange hammer onto the wood. I breathed in and out like I was in labour. Bruce looked to me and squeezed my hand, giving me a small smile. I returned the smile.

"We are gathered here today to discuss custody reasons between Odin Borson and Hela Laufeyson. The person that the two want custody over is Loki Laufeyson, brother of Hela Laufeyson. Adopted son of Odin Borson.
I bring to the jury Odin Borson."

Odin stood up as did his lawyer.
"I wish to claim custody of Loki Laufeyson because he is more than adopted to me. He is part of our family and she has no right to try and take him from us. We would never allow harm to come to Loki but that is all she would give to him. I rest my case."
Odin finished sitting down. The judge looked at him unimpressed.
"Is it true that you have physically and mentally abused Mr. Laufeyson?"
Odins face drained of colour.
"That is incorrect, my Judge."
"Is it correct that your family has abused Mr.Laufeyson?"
"Once again my judge, that is incorrect."

"Mam, if I may..." the judge nodded at Phil. "I have several witnesses and evidence to claim that Mr.Borson has indeed just like his family members assaulted and abused Loki in every way."
The judge looked at Phil with an emotion I couldn't tell.
"Would you let your witnesses to stand up and take a testimony?"
"Indeed I will, my judge."
Phil let Darcy go up first.

"My honour, I have seen the marks all over Loki's body. They aren't caused by simple bullies. He has mentioned that not just physically but sexually and mentally Mr.Borson has abused him. He has gone towards suicide and self harm. I have photos of the marks that Mr.Borson has made on Loki."

The jury were passing around photos of my bruises and scars and wounds. I looked to Bruce and he gave me a reassuring squeeze on my hand. I smiled at noticed that a different witness was up. Tony.

"Your honour, I have seen Loki be caring to himself right after Mr.Odinson had sexually assaulted Loki. I had walked right into the bathroom just seconds after he had left, Loki was crying and shaking. Tying his shirt buttons up. No one does that just after going to the bathroom."

The judge nodded. "If I may, your honour, my son has always been different and what he does with others and without does not mean that he has been assaulted or harmed in any way." The judge nodded, in deep thought.

"Do you have any other witnesses?"
"Yes, 6 others, your honour."
"May I have another witness up?"
"Yes your honour."

Bruce was next. He smiled at me and sat next to the judge. "I had grown close to Loki as soon as I met him. He had just been verbally abused by his brother. I saw him that same day in the library, no one else was there, he had a blade and was drawing it across his arms. When I asked why, he replied with: I deserved it. He told me so. He cut several times after that. No matter how hard we tried to get him to stop, he finally gave us the blade soon after. He vowed for us to never tell Mr.Borson that he got rid of the blades."

Odin had begun to grow fearful and angry. Nat stood up and went forth.
"Loki had, on several occasions, slipped up and lied to us that he walked into a door or fell over. Of course we knew they were lies, but only did we try and help even more when we found his whole body covered in the marks. He opened up then, admitted that Odin had raped him every single day, as did Thor, Mrs.Borson had abused him in her alcoholic and sober state, as did Mr.Borson as well. He admitted several other things as well."

"Is this true Mr.Borson?"
"Well your honour, the alcohol part is true. We may have rare drinks now and then." The judge looked at him in a superior way.  Clint stood up.

"Loki had confessed to us one day. The second day after we met him. He came running into the school, his hair was dishevelled and he had hickeys all up his neck. His eye was still bruised from the earlier day. He confessed that day about the rapes. It made me and Tony throw up. We told Phil and legally there wasn't actually anything he could do. It made us both sick again."

"If I may, but can or can Loki not participate in doings such as teenage sex?" Odins lawyer spoke up. The judge looked at him for him to continue.
"Loki Laufeyson is at that 'adventuring' stage-" I couldn't help but snicker at that. I began to blush furiously when some people turned their heads to me.
"-he would want to know what sex is like. Although being underaged, Mr.Laufeyson still participated in the act. This caused him to gain a few marks. The dishevelled hair is a sign that he had continued the act before school. He did not want to cause attention- or maybe he did want the attention- so he faked acting that his father did that to him." The lawyer finished. I stared at my feet, quickly wiping the stream of tears. Nat saw and squeezed my hand. Clint sat back down. It was Steve's turn, then Hela, then I would claim what happened.
