1 Prologue

Loki ran after Thor, his brother, as the dwarfs chased after them.

"You should not of turned their wine into snakes!" Shouted Thor, swinging his hammer, ready to take flight.

"It was only meant as a joke!"

Wrapping his arm around his brother, Thor took off into the sky, "Well I don't think they saw it as a joke."

"Why must you always insist on carrying me through the sky?" Shouted Loki, fighting against his brother's grip.

"Because otherwise you'd die, because you're very slow, and you can't fly.''

"Fair point.

"What in the name of gods were you two thinking?!" 

Odin paced briskly in front of his two sons, who hung their heads in shame.

"The dwarfs are now demanding either compensation or that I inflict punishment on you.''

Thor stepped towards Odin, "Father it's not what you think Lo-" 

"Silence! Thor, you are not the one who is in trouble, it was your brohter's doing that got us into trouble.''

Loki glared at his father, "You've got to be kidding me.'' 

"I'm not kidding.''

"Why must you always blame me for everything that goes wrong? Why? Thor played just as much a part in this than I did, but yet you tell him that it is not his fault? I can't believe this!"

Odin stepped towards his son, "Loki! You play dangerous games! You are not a child anymore! You can't keep playing tricks on others! You'll get someone killed!"

"But why only blame me? Thor was a part of this as well.''

"Leave Thor out of this.''

"No! I will not leave Thor out of this!"

"Loki! I'm warning you! One more word and I'll banish you.''

"But why is Thor the favourite? Why do you treat him with respect and not me?"

Odin turned to Thor, "Thor please leave me and your brother.''

Keeping his gaze to the ground, Thor stormed out of the room.

"Loki, time after time you disobey my orders, you speak out of turn and with disrespect. And because of this I hereby banish you to Midgard until further notice.''

"But father-"

"You shall not have any influence or dominance over those who live there, and you shall remain there until you have proven yourself worthy to return.''
