After losing everything in the Battle of New York, you were captured and forced to become SHIELD's secret project. With the rare ability to shape-shift into any animal, you were locked away in the Avengers tower training for a freedom that never comes. A year later, your freedom is finally within reach... until Thor returns to Earth with his brother, Loki. A man who is too arrogant, too unpredictable, and far too interested in you. But as you help him search for redemption, you begin to realize he isn't the only one changing.

Takes place after the first Avengers movie, then goes AU. If Odin truly sees Thor and Loki as equal, they ought to face equal punishment for equal crime. Thors suggestion is granted and Loki is stripped of his powers as he banished to midgard where he has to either proof himself worthy or spend the rest of his life on earth without any special powers. Loki though is not so easily broken. He might not have magic nor supernatural strenght. But he still has his wits, his gift of deception, his knowledge and basic skills as a fighter. And he is not ready to just lay down and admit defeat. He is ready to do what it takes to rise ones again and handle the incoming threat from the void.
