Broken Pasts (Loki x OC)

ch1

Epin is sitting next to Steve, fuming at the fact that Tony just cheated in the card game they were playing. Tony knew exactly how to get under her skin and he was doing it by cheating. Epin goes to draw a new card from the deck when she sees that none of her cards can play and she smirks when she draws the draw 4 uno card. Steve goes after her and he groans when he has to draw a card as well. Tony smiles at Epin who was after Steve.

"Sorry Epin, but you're going to have to draw four." He says as he places down the card signaling for Epin to draw. She takes a deep breath to keep from yelling at Tony but that all flew out of the window when he opened his mouth to speak again. "Oh and Uno." Tony smirks to himself knowing that Epin was pissed as he held up his only remaining card in the air tauntingly. She always lost at this game and it was always Tony's fault. Steve was too proper to cheat, Tony on the other hand had a very small moral compass and playing by the rules was not on it.

"You are cheating! I just know it!" Epin stands and yells, throwing her cards on the table.

"You are just being a sore loser!" Tony yells now standing. He was the only one amused with this situation. Steve on the other hand groaned and put his head in his hands. There is always a fight when the three play Uno. Tony always cheats and Epin always believes him when he promises he wont cheat while Steve politely sits with them and follows the rules with a cool head.

"I am not a sore loser! You are a fucking cheater Tony Stark!" Epin yells and Tony gasps.

"You have no proof Epin! I promised no cheating, I am winning because I am awesome and that is it." Tony defends making Epin even more irritated. She lifts her hand and makes the cards he was hiding under the table float up into the air. She huffs angrily when she sees that this time he hid three cards instead of two like last time.

"You are a cheater Stark!" Epin yells as she flings the poorly hidden cards at him. He lifts his arm to protect his face from the attack and gives Epin a glare as she stands there with a proud expression on her face. Steve had stood up and walked to the other side of the room, searching through the pantry while Epin and Tony continued their yelling. Epin can hear the entrance to Stark towers open behind them but she is so focused on screaming at Tony neither of them seem to care about the intruder.

"My friends?" A familiar gruff voice belonging to a blonde haired god enters the room.

"Those were there before, I did not hide them!" Tony says pointing to the now abandoned cards on the floor and completely ignoring the person who has entered the room.

"You are a fucking liar!" Epin accused, sticking her finger into his chest to get her point across.

"For all I know you could have put them there. You're sneaky!" He yells back making Epins face grow red and she takes a slow step towards him. Tony immediately knows he should have kept his mouth shut. When Epin is mad like this, she is a very dangerous person to be around. All he can think about is why did he have to hide those cards.

"Steve!!!" Tony yells and Steve runs in seeing how pissed Epin has gotten.

"Epin! Back away. Thor come help!" Steve yells and Epin unclenches her hands the second Steve puts a hand on her shoulder.

Thor, who happened to be the one to enter the tower rather unnoticed, rushes over to Epin once he realizes what is going on. He grips onto the sides of her arms and pulls her away from Tony.

"One day you are going to make her blow this place to shreds." Steve mumbles as Epin stands in Thor's arms, glaring at Tony.

"Nah she loves me." Tony states gloatingly making Epin glare harder and open her mouth to yell something when Thor speaks to her.

"Please don't kill me for restraining you, Lady Epin." Thor states in his asgardian accent as he releases Epin and she pushes him forcefully off of her.

"This could all have been prevented had your dumbass not fucking cheated. God you are such a child Tony!" Epin says while keeping her distance, not wanting to destroy anything.

"Says the one having a fit about how I cheated." Tony grumbles and Epins eyes light up.

"So you admit it!!!" She practically yells victoriously.

"Excuse me! I have been trying to get your attention since my arrival." Thor states as he relaxing swings his hammer from hand to hand. Epin turns to face him and finally realizes that Thor is in fact back on earth.

"Oh, Thor. What are you doing here?" Epin asks curiously, having completely forgotten about her argument with Tony.

"He thought you might be entertained by me." A tall black haired man states from behind him with thick metal cuffs latched around his wrists. Epin eyes him and instantly connects the dots that this is Thor's sly brother Loki. Loki stands in his spot, completely still as he eyes the girl who was just aggressively shouting at the head avenger. He couldn't help but think she was a rather feisty mortal.

Thor sighs before speaking again, "I did not bring him for entertainment. My father, King of asgard requested I bring him to earth for safekeeping until he can return better behaved. Odin wants him to become good." He finishes making Tony laugh until he realizes by the face Thor was making that Thor was in fact being completely serious. Epin stands with her arms crossed over her chest silently as Loki continues to watch her closely.

"What are you looking at?" Steve directs the question at Loki as he steps towards Epin, noticing Loki's intrigued eyes. Epin glances at Steve and can tell he is already not a fan of having Loki stay here.

The doors opened again and all eyes directed toward them as a familiar man in all black came in. "Hello Thor, could you follow me and I can escort you down to the cell Stark has been building for your brother." Nick Fury states and without another word, Thor leaves the room trailing Fury after grabbing his brothers by the arm.

Epin spins on her heels and faces a confused and shocked Steve and Tony. "What the hell just happened?" She asks just as confused as they are.

"I guess we are babysitting the God of Mischief. I really thought that the cell was for Banner in case anything happens." Tony mentions.

"We should not have the God of Mischief just chilling in Stark Towers. Why did Nick agree to this?" Epin questions as she glances back at the door Thor guided Loki out of.

"Well he let you on the team Epin. Miss Goddess of manipulation." Tony jabs making Epin slap his side and she turned back to look at the two men.

"First of all it is Goddess of Power and Manipulation and secondly, Loki has tried to kill us all whereas the only person I have tried to kill among our group is you Tony.....and that one time with Fury." Epin snaps and Steve chuckles, earning a smirk from Epin as Tony throws his arms up in defeat.

"I'm sure we will have a meeting to discuss what the actual plan is with Loki. You know that is the first time I have ever seen him before." She says thinking back onto how he looked so proper with his posture and traditional asgardian robes.

"I can tell it was his first time seeing you from the way he looked at you. What a creep." Steve mumbles before exiting the room with Tony at his side, leaving Epin alone to clean up the mess of Uno cards on the coffee table.
