Okay first off this has nothing to do with Third Chance. This tale was requested from Dark Magical Sorcres. I recommend checking out her stuff too.

Thor is owned by Marvel and Carrie by Stephen King. Neither know about what I'm about to do to their characters. :)

The throne room was abuzz with the return of the Odin sons, Thor and Loki. As Thor led his brother towards their father the audience shouted angrily at the trickster. "Wow you'd think I'd killed a building full of puppies with all the anger." Loki smiled, ignoring as he now stood in front of his father. "Ah Odin you look well." Loki turned to Frigga and smiled sincerely. "And mother such a pleasure." Frigga merely looked on. As a mother she was heartbroken, but as queen she remained strong for her people.

"Loki." In an instinct the room when silent as all eyes were on the All Father. "You meddled with the lives of mortals, tried to kill you brother, stole the Tesseract, and allied with the Chitauri to take over the nine realms. What do you have to say for yourself before I pass your sentencing?"

"If you ever go to Midgard, avoid that green troll. He has a mean temper." Thor smiled. Remembering the look on Loki's face.

"You show no concern for the lives of others nor do you care about your own actions. You and your brother-"

"Adopted brother." Loki's interrupted.

Odin ignored Loki's obvious jab at his true heritage. "Have become so wrapped up with the affairs of mortals that I don't see why I shouldn't send you back to Earth to face whatever justice they decide."

Loki simply snorted with indifference while Odin paused, in deep thought before continuing. "I should execute you here and now, but your brother and mother have asked me to be lenient.

"Oh do tell your Oldness what is to be my fate. A century in the dungeon, banished to some pocket dimension, or am I to become your court jester." Loki chuckled before Odin spoke again.

"You shall not only go back to Midgard, but with you goes a curse." Odin suddenly pointed his spear towards Loki and struck him with a powerful energy blast. Thor backed away as Loki cried out in pain. His green and gold armor fell apart as he could feel his powers leaving him. Once it was done Loki was hunched over as he tried to recover.

Odin then transferred his son's magical powers into his staff then placed a seal on it and handed to a nearby guard. "I have taken your powers and locked away." Loki rose and glared draggers at the All-Father. "Heimdall." The gatekeeper quickly came to his kings side. "My son believes me to be a cruel parent; I wish to show him what a child in true cruelty is."

Heimdall closed his eyes and thought of who would fit this horrible role. "My king I have seen many things on Midgard that, thankfully, we are free from. Wars, plague, hatred, even parents worse than demons." Taking a second to pause, the watcher quickly narrowed his search and opened his eyes. "There is one that I have been watching closely." Odin motioned for Thor, who brought Loki to Heimdall. Thor place his and Loki's hand on Heimdall's shoulder while Odin and Frigga did the same on the other. Heimdall then showed them the past of a mid-aged woman.

The woman was screaming in pain as she gripped the bed-sheets underneath her. Her legs were spread with blood everywhere. With one final screech, an infant's cry's sounded in the bedroom. The now mother looked at the baby with unknown eyes before reaching for a pair of scissors. She raised them above her head, before stopping and cradling the baby in her arms; scissors still in hand.

Heimdall showed them more images. A young child being beaten for 'supposed' sin, forced to sleep in a closet repeatedly, other children bullying the child, and more that were even worse.

Odin and the others had seen enough and withdrew their hands.

"So tragic." Frigga spoke with a broken heart. "How can one's life be so horrific in such a short time?" Odin placed a comforting hand on his wife's arm. Turning he looked at his sons. Both Thor and Loki were speechless. Thor gripping his hammer tightly. Loki looking down while trying to make sense of what he just saw.

"Loki." The trickster looked up and quickly hid the emotions he was feeling. "Your fate is this; you are to remain with the human Carrie White until you learn what humility, compassion, and self-sacrifice means."

"You would make me a slave to a mere mortal?!"

Odin pointed his spear at Loki once again and teleported him away. "I would make you a better person!" The hall was cleared until only Odin and Frigga remained.

"How can a mother do those things to her daughter?" Frigga sat at her throne as a fresh tear fell.

"The lives of mortals are both short and hard my queen. Let us just hope that our son can learn from this and change for the better." Although the All-Father would never admit it he also shed a tear for the mortal Carrie White.
