He Let Go (Loki)

When he was hanging off the edge of the broken "Rainbow Bridge" as Thor called it. As soon as Odin said those two words "No Loki" he knew the AllFather would NEVER see him like he does Thor. Tears formed in eyes but the rest of him felt numb. For the first time he actually wanted to die. To simply give up and be done with it. His whole life was a lie. Odin had stolen him and he wasn't really Thor's brother. His mother....no the women who ACTED as wasn't even his birth mother.

He decided then how easily it would be to just LET GO......

Thor must have realized because he uttered

"Loki no!"

But he was far too late.

Everything had been taken from him

His pale hand that had been gripping so tightly just went lax.

"NOOOOOOO!"

He heard his brother's heart wrenching scream

The air rushing past him as he fell further and further down into...well he didn't really know.

A wormhole?

Another realm?

Or just nothing?

He hoped for nothing.

His cheeks are wet and he realizes he's sobbing.

Contrary to popular belief he did fear death.

.............................................................................

A figure appeared seconds after Loki "slipped". She wore sliver armor and long hair of different colors. At first glance some say it's blonde but then other say brown. Every person takes notice of the four strands of hair that are jet black. Another striking characteristic is her right eye is a vibrate green and the other is brilliant blue.

She runs towards Odin and Thor with an inhuman amount of speed. Thor even draws lighting into her direction and to his surprise she redirects it easily. Before he can strike again she jumps over the side of the bridge.
Loki was falling too fast at this rate she'd never catch him. She kicked her ankles together to engage her rocket boots to give her an extra boost begging that it'd be enough.

His hand is the first thing she grabs, firmly as she doesn't intend to let him go without a fight. She smiles in victory as she has slowed his fall. She brings her other hand up to his neck right below the hair starting at the nape of it. She didn't want to hurt or even snap his neck with the change of speed she was about to make. She began to ascend upward at once and only then she caught his eyes "I've got you".
She had pushed his face into her shoulder her hand that was holding his hand now around his waist. The broken bridge coming closer until she landed upon it, her rocket boots deactivating. She gently lowered the god of mischief to the solid surface, her right hand still supporting his neck and head.

His green eyes were barely open and quickly she wondered if he even knew what was happening or if he cared. She set her gaze upon Odin "Look what you've done to him! You've broken him!" Thor walked over cautiously to the pair his hammer ready to strike if need be. She looked from Loki's face to Thor's "I mean you no harm" and with that the older brother quickened his pace. He knelt down but didn't know what to do. Stunned that his brother would do that.

She laid her slender hand gently on Loki's chest "I'm goin to heal him" she told Thor before she continued her work. Slowly a green mist covered her hand and she closed her eyes to focus mending what needed to be. Loki's green eyes fluttered shut with a content sigh. All at once she pulled away without warning "It is done." Thor knew that green power anywhere it was Loki's or so he thought. Her small hand found Thor's bigger one and guided it to instead cup his brother's head "Thor stay here with him please. I need to have a word with Odin" she stood with such grace Thor hasn't seen from anyone other than his mother Frigga. Her face was blank of emotion and her red cape swung as she walked.

She stopped in front of him and they locked eyes "Odin what you have done is worthy of death. Taking a child whom was abandoned for nothing more than your own selfish desires! To top it off you kept the truth from him and treat him as less than what he truly is!" Odin shook his head "What is that foolish girl? What do you think my son to be? He's a criminal! A murder!" A growl coming from low in her throat, her eyes narrowed "He's misunderstood. Everything YOU claim him to be is because of YOU! You created this monster. Never did you show him love...no you showed him you loved Thor more. That Thor was the only one worthy of your love. What do you think that does to a child that young? It destroys him....so deal with the actions you made." For once Odin was quiet and she walked away with anger in her eyes.

Should I do a part 2? Honestly this one shot could be a full blown story. Has I had so many ideas for it.

Prompts are open!

Leave your idea in the comments or dm me.
