The Trickster and the Blade

Meeting

Echo woke up the next morning knowing that she was going to meet Dominick to figure out why they were connected. "Morning 'Co, how did you sleep last night?" Steve said when he saw her walking into the kitchen. "Great Dad and ready to perform later today over at Central Park," Echo said with a smile as put a beagle in the toaster. Steve was proud of Echo for knowing herself and her place in their chaotic world. He saw her grab her bag from the hook after making herself breakfast to head over to the park to sing but he knew that something was off about her. "I'll see you later but call me if anything happens okay," Echo said before hugging her Dad and heading out the door. 

 Echo headed towards the subway to head into the city to meet up with what she hoped was a new friend. When she arrived at the station near Central Park, Echo started to walk towards Oak Bridge to meet up with Dominick to talk about what happened last night. When she arrived at the bridge she spotted the guy that she had seen in her dream last night. "You must be Echo?" Dominick asked when he saw Echo walking up. "Yeah I'm Echo and you must be Dominick," Echo said in return. They talked about what happened the night before and Dominick had told her that his dad is none other than Loki which shocked Echo. It was a good thing that day there was no line and people could in. 

Dominick knows that if he joins the team that Echo is a part of he wasn't going to get much trust because of his dad. "I heard that you are a great performer and you got a chance to perform in Hadestown this past summer," Dominick said with a charming smile. "I won't say that am great as a performer but am okay. I'm planning to perform a song right now if you want to stick around," Echo said as she got up. Dominick looked at her with a knowing look in his eyes but wanted to what Echo had in store. She started the song that she had planned that music got her audience. 

'Boom, woke me from my sleep

Boom, woke me from a dream
Boom, got me on my feet
Boom, think the birds who singI'm here to try anything
I'm done with the suffering
It's time to stand up and sing
For my life
I'm here now to try it all
I'm ready to take a fall
'Cause I'm an original
Why deny it?And I won't waste my life being typical
I'ma be original, even when it's difficult
And I won't change myself when they tell me, "No"
I'ma be original, I'ma be original
Nah, I won't waste my life being typical

Boom, I'm ready to fight
Boom, the dear ones that live inside
Boom, I faced the darkest nightI'm here to try anything
I'm done with the suffering
It's time to stand up and sing
For my life
I'm here now to try it all
I'm ready to take a fall
'Cause I'm an original

Echo looked back over at Dominick to see that he was clapping and whistling which caused her to blush. "That was amazing and I hope that we could be friends," he told Echo after she packed all her gear. Echo told him the same thing and they exchanged numbers knowing that want to start a friendship despite everything.

"Thanks plus I have the same hope and if you want to talk to Uncle and cousin just let me know," Echo said before heading back home. Dominick accepted her offer and would let her know if he wanted to talk to them. From there, the pair went their separate ways, and Echo went straight home with a smile and blush on her face.
