Ashes (MCU/Loki fan fic)

Inauguration

Frigga helped you fix yourself in the mirror.
"I look a mess." You frowned.

"Oh stop." She laughed. "You look gorgeous." She smiled.

You had decided your usual fighting armor was a bit much, and settled for a more casual look. You kept the metal chest and corset piece of your armor, and the boots, but instead wore a leather asgardian style skirt and leather accents of ensemble.

Keeping your signature headpiece with the short thick downwards facing horns that accented your face, but kept the face of it open, and allowed your hair to fall from it in a half braided curly do.

"Let us be going then." You Smiled and walked along side Frigga to the hall. Kana stood in the front row of 'peasants' she wore an adorable dress and had her hair fixed in a high pony tail.

She smiled and waved to you, you waved back.

You walked down the path, your eyes flashing to Loki, in all his fully armored glory, helmet and all. Your eyes gazed him as his gazed You.

You loved his helmet. He loved yours. You walked up the steps, and took your place along side him.

"Good morning." You Smiled to him. "Good morning." He slightly smiled back. You knew he wasn't happy about any of this. Odin took his seat on the throne, and trumpets sounded and the people roared as Thor entered.

Thor Smiled and laughed joyfully. He lifted Mjolnir and the people cheered. He flipped it once as well, cheering and turning in circles as he walked down the row of gaurds.

He kneeled before Odin and took off his helmet. Odin stood, and jabbed the floor with his staff, the hall growing silent.

"Thor, odinson. My heir." Odin spoke. Loki's face seemed cold. Then again, who's wouldn't be?

"My first born. Trusted with the mighty hammer, Mjolnir. Forged from a dying star. It's power has no equal. It is a weapon to destroy, or a tool to build. It is a fit companion for a king."

You couldn't help glance at Loki every now and then. You felt so horribly for him.

"Do you swear, to watch over the nine realms?" Odin asked.

"I swear." Thor said.

"Do you swear, to preserve the peace?"

"I swear."

"Do you swear, to cast aside all selfish ambitions, and protect the nine realms?"

"I swear!" Thor said lifting Mjolnir.

"On this day, I, Odin Allfather, proclaim you-"

Thors smiled brightly. And Odom's eyes flickered away from him.

Oh no. You thought. You could've sworn Loki looked to you.

"Frost-giants." Odin said. Everyone whispered, you looked over your shoulder to Kana. Go home, now you said in her head and she quickly ran off through the crowd.

Odin tapped the staff to the floor again and then started off towards the vaults. Thor followed, as did Loki, and naturally, so did you.

You all rushed down the steps and entered he vaults.

There was ice all over, and two gaurds bodies. Along with part of the frost giants. Odin walked to the casket.

"The Jotuns must pay for what they have done." Thor said.

"They have, with their lives. All is well, the casket is safe." Odin said.  You vanished away your ensemble, taking off your helmet and restoring to black leather suit.

Much more comfortable.

"All is well? They broke into the weapons vault. If the frost giants had stolen even one of these relics-" Thor began.

"But they didn't."

"Well I want to know why." Thor said. You and Loki looked between the two as they fought.

"I have a truce with Laufy, they king of Jotunheim." Odin said.

"He just broke your truce! Hey know you are vulnerable."

"What do you suggest we do?"

"Send soldiers to Jotunheim, teach them a lesson, break their spirits that they will never step foot in our borders again."

"You're thinking only of a warrior."

"This was an act of war."

"It was an act of but a few. Destined to fail."

"Look how far they got!"

"We will find the breach in our defenses, it will be sealed."

"As king of Asgard-"

"But you're not king!" Odin finished. It went silent.

"Not yet." Odin said. Thor looked down as Odin walked between your three leaving.

You looked up to Loki, he looked to you. You both looked to Thor. You reached out a put a hand on Thor's shoulder.

"Come Thor." You said soothingly and he turned, the three of you leaving.
