"Brother, what kind of magic is this?" Thor's body began to ache and his bones made strange cracking noises. He was changing, his hair began to grow all over his body but it was no longer the blonde he was so used to seeing. It was now turning a foreign gray color. His nails were growing at an incredible rate, they began to look like claws more than fingernails. He collapsed as another bone in his body cracked, he tried to shout but there was only a strange growling sound that escaped his lips.

"Thor, I am sorry. I- I did not mean for this to happen." Thor lifted his head and saw the look of horror on Loki's face and tears beginning to fall from his eyes. Thor's eyes felt strange and another growl escaped his mouth as he covered his eyes with his hands only to find paws in their place.

What is happening to me? He opened his eyes to find the world colorless but he saw so many things that he never saw before. His bones cracked one last time this one was worse than all of the others. His face began to change as he grew a snout and sharp teeth. He howled in pain as his transformation finally completed.

Loki stared at the wolf like creature that stood before him that was once his brother.

What have I done?! He was not trying to hurt Thor, it just happened... Thor should not have scared him while he was trying to run away from all the threats. He thought that Thor was one of the men that was threatening him so he just…. Defended himself. Thor stood on his four legs and looked down at his paws, his fur was a mixture of grays and blacks. Finally, he looked in Loki's direction. Loki saw the pain and confusion in the piercing blue eyes that were Thor's.

"Thor. Please, forgive me!" Loki fell to the ground in front of him and held out his hand to the wolf as tears rolled down his cheeks. Thor began to whimper and slowly closed the space between them and licked the tears away trying to reassure him that he was not angry.

Don't cry, Loki. Loki scratched behind Thor's newly acquired ears. His tail began to wag uncontrollably. He had a tail, this was going to take some getting used to. Someone began to pound on the door. Loki stared at the door, now what was he going to do? They were coming for him and now Thor was a wolf. This was not going to help him plea his case any easier.

"Loki, open the door! Have you seen, Thor? He said he was going to go and look for you and he never came back." It was Sif. Great. Just great. Thor went over to the door. He was sniffing for a minute before he started scratching and whimpering at it. He turned to Loki and whimpered some more.

Loki, its ok. Just open the door. Loki stared at him, something about the way he was looking at him with those icy, blue eyes was telling him that everything was going to be fine. He slowly stood and headed toward the door where his life was standing in the balance.

"Sif."

"Loki, have you seen him?" Her face was red and she was breathing heavily. She looked as if she had been running.

"I need your help." He knew he had to tell someone it might as well be Sif. She is the most trustworthy person he knew beside Thor.

"What is it? What's wrong?" She stepped past him into the bedchamber. "Why is there a wolf in here?"

"That is what I need help with, Sif." Loki walked toward Thor and started scratching behind his ears again.

"What do you want me to do? Kill it?"

"NO!" Loki stood quickly placing himself in front of Thor protectively. "This wolf is Thor!"

"Loki, what are you talking about? This is no time to be playing games." Loki pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed.

"Sif, I am not playing any games with you. I was trying to get away from some… unwanted attention and Thor burst into my bedchamber and scared me so I did the only thing I could, magic. Then, next thing I knew he was transforming into this wolf! Please, Sif. You must believe me!" Thor whimpered and slowly made his way toward Sif.

Sif, please. It is me! Thor stared up into her eyes. She gasped.

"Thor? Loki, what have you done?" Sif glared at him and readied her staff to attack him. Thor growled.

Sif, what are you doing? Thor backed slowly toward Loki he growled angrily his fangs were barred at Sif. His fur was standing up on its own. What is this strange feeling? It's as if I am instinctively protecting him.

"Thor, its fine. I deserve whatever she has in store for me. I am sorry for what I have done to you and I promise that I will not sleep until I find a way to get you back to normal." Loki pet Thor for a moment before turning toward Sif. "Do whatever you want to me just do not kill me. I must find a way to change him back."

"I am going to take you to Allfather and you can plead your case to him." She held her staff to his neck and put shackles on his wrists. "Familiar feeling?"

"Yes, it reminds me of returning home after my run-in with the Avengers. You do not need to taunt me, Sif. I have learned my lesson since then. It's all thanks to Thor." He turned and stared back at the wolf that slowly followed them and whimpered softly.

Odin sat on his throne conversing softly with Frigga. He enjoyed when they had little moments to themselves like this. It reminded him of when they met all those years ago, when he didn't have all of these responsibilities.

"Allfather!" Sif was bowing when he looked in the direction where his name was being called from.

"Sif, why is Loki in chains?" Frigga spoke before he could. She was rushing down the steps to where Sif had Loki chained and a strange wolf at their side. "And why is there a wolf in here?"

"My Queen, that wolf is Thor! Loki changed him into a wolf on "accident" allegedly." She had a sarcastic tone when she said the word accident that made Loki cringe.

"Loki? Is this true?" Odin finally spoke. He looked up into Odin's one shining eye and slowly nodded.

"I-I did not mean to do it! I have been getting harassed for a long time now and I did the only thing I could when he burst into my room and scared me, magic. I never thought that the one who was going to receive the spell would be Thor or that it was going to change him into a wolf, but I promise that I will do whatever it takes to change him back. No matter how long it takes." Loki stared at him for a long time, Odin's face was giving nothing away and it was irritating him very much. Odin stared back at him for a long time. He could fix all of this right now and just change Thor back… or he could make it more interesting.

"Loki, have you really learned your lesson?" He spoke after a very long time. Loki finally let out the breath he hadn't realized he was holding.

"What do you mean, Allfather? Do you speak of Midgard? Yes, I have learned my lesson." His voice was shaking.

"I do not think that you have. I have a better idea." He waved his hand and Loki's bones began to ache and crack. He screamed in agony, it was like nothing he had ever felt before, but he deserved it.

"Odin! What are you doing to him?" Frigga's muffled screams came from somewhere far away.

"Giving him a taste of his magic and what he did to Thor."

"He said it was an accident!" He didn't hear anything of their conversation after that because his screams were muffling their voices.

Loki? There was a familiar voice that suddenly invaded his mind surpassing all of the pain and agony.

Thor…? He slowly opened his eyes and looked around the room. Thor was growling at Odin and standing protectively in front of him again. The color was fading away from the world around him, soon it was all gone. When he looked at where his hands once were there was black fur and paws.

"Thor, do not be angry with me. I am but teaching him a lesson. Stop growling at me." Odin spoke finally. Loki's face began to crack and change, before he knew it there was a wet, black nose and fur covering his new face. He tried to speak but all that came out was a strange barking noise.

Loki, do not try to speak. No noise will come out besides that of an animal. Thor spoke from somewhere in Loki's mind.

Thor? How are we able to speak like this?

I do not understand it myself. Loki looked in Thor's direction their eyes met for a moment. Loki could no longer see the icy blue eyes anymore, they were just a light gray color now.

"Strange isn't it? Being able to speak to each other through your minds." Odin addressed them both this time. They both turned and stared at him, their eyes showed their curiosity of how he knew what was going on. "Are you wondering how I know all of this?" They both nodded in his direction.

How does he know exactly what we are thinking? Loki spoke to Thor when Odin paused for a long time.

"I went through this once a long time ago, with Laufey. We were much bigger than you are now, but that might have been because of our positions of authority." The room was silent, waiting for him to continue on. "We both grew closer in that time, that is why the peace treaty was made and why he let me take you so that we could strengthen the treaty, Loki."

"So why have you changed Loki into a wolf? If you could have just changed Thor back?" Frigga spoke what everyone else was thinking.

"I changed him because I know that it will strengthen their relationship in the time it will take them to learn how to change themselves back." Odin stood and held his arm out to Frigga. "That, is both of your punishments." He left them with Sif when he finished speaking. Sif stood staring at the two wolves that sat before her.

Now what are we going to do? Loki huffed and scratched behind his ear with his left hind leg.

I do not know, brother. Thor licked his right paw and then turned toward Sif. Do you think she will help us get to Midgard where we can blend better?

Doubtful, but it is worth a try. They both stood and trudged over to where Sif had fallen to her knees.

"What do you want?" She spoke after they had been staring at her for a few minutes. They tugged on her clothing lightly with their teeth she slowly understood that they wanted her to follow them. "Alright I shall follow you." She stood and followed them to where the map of the 9 realms was held. They whimpered at it as she slowly headed toward the map. "Where do you want to go?"

Midgard, silly woman. Loki spoke in his head slowly standing on his hind legs and pointing to Midgard with his nose.

"What in Valhala would you possibly want to do on Midgard?" They turned and whined quietly. "Alright. I will go and speak with Hiemdall."

She made her way swiftly to where Hiemdall was waiting for them. The two wolves followed her, almost invisible in the night due to their dark fur. Sif could not believe she was doing this, she could be imprisoned for helping these two who were being punished by Odin.

"Hiemdall?" She whispered when she got to the meeting spot.

"Yes, Sif. I am here." He spoke as if this was no secret, his voice echoing through the darkness. She rolled her eyes and stepped from where she was hiding, the two wolves at her flank. They looked around cautiously as she explained where she wanted to send them.

"They need to get to Midgard, quickly."

"You would go this far for them?" She looked up at Hiemdall and nodded her head.

"They are my friends and they trusted me enough to tell the truth when they did not have to. I just want to return the favor by granting their wishes." She stared at them for a moment.

"Then, you must stop worrying about being punished. It is for a good reason, the Allfather will understand." He placed his hand on her shoulder and she nodded her head. "Now, you two come hither. It is time." The two wolves slowly made their ways to where Hiemdall was waiting for them. They both turned and nodded at Sif.

Thank you. They said in unison as the new bifrost, that was made a few years after Loki was released from his imprisonment, began to whirl to life. They stared at Sif as they began their decent to Midgard howling at their home that was slowly fading away from them.
