"Hey, Azure, I was wondering if you would like to attend the next feast together." A rather handsome young man asked in a flirtatious voice.
 
Azure placed a smile on her face and answered, "Thank you for the offer, but I'm afraid I have already been asked."
 
The young man became sheepish and turned his once confident gaze away from her. "Oh, of course. My apologies." He did a quick bow and walked off. 
 
Azure sighed and continued on her way to the palace. She had spent the day in the nearby forest, gazing at the wild flowers growing there. Her mind had been wandering through ideas of revenge. She wasn't as skilled as Loki was in magical properties. She just recently discovered she had a gift for it. What could she possibly do that would stand against Loki's counter magic? The last prank was a jump scare. That was the only reason it worked. 
 
As she entered the palace, another young man entered her path. "Lady Azure." He greeted with a respectful bow. She gave a polite curtsy in return. "I was wondering if you were attending the upcoming feast with anyone." 
 
A question she has already heard in many different ways today and the days prier. Once more, she placed an apologetic smile on her face and kindly rejected. "Someone has already asked me, yes." 
 
The young man straightened up, and nodded promptly. "Of course. I apologize for bothering you." As all the other before him, he bowed and walked away in defeat.
 
She turned and continued down the halls. She mumbled to herself as she walked. "Isn't there any other girls in the kingdom that you would rather ask? Why must they all bother me? I don't have any desire to attend a feast as their trophy." 
 
As she spoke, she caught the ear of a dark-haired man who heard her earlier conversation. The man came up behind her and started to walk beside her. "It isn't kind to lie to so many men in one day." He ridiculed.
 
She didn't bother to turn her attention to him. "Do you need something, Loki?" 
 
The corners of his lips tugged upward at the tone of her voice. "It's been a while since my last prank. I'm starting to get impatient with waiting for your revenge." The teasing in his voice was evident. They both knew the reason that it took so long to get her revenge. She didn't know how to get him back.
 
They reached the doors to her chambers, and she turned to face him. "I have more important matters to give my attention to." She opened one of the doors and backed into the room. "Good day, my prince." She bowed to him and closed the door behind her. Her annoyance evident in her actions.
 
Although her actions would normally be considered rude, he was amused more than insulted. Watching her frustration gave him some entertainment within these boring walls. He gave a short chuckle and walked away. 
 
Azure plopped face first onto her bed and grunted. "Why can't they just leave me alone for one day? The feast is a week from now. Can't I have some peace of mind?" 
 
Without her knowledge, Anthea walked into her room, bringing her a cup of tea. "Of course not, my lady. A woman with your beauty and nature is heavily sought after." She sat on the edge of the bed and waited for Azure to sit up before giving her the cup. 
 
Azure took the cup and sipped it. A smile immediately showed on her face. "You know me so well." She commented on the flavor of the tea. Green tea with lemon and honey always calmed her down. She wrapped her fingers around the cup and sighed. "Maybe, I should just become unattractive. It would be so much easier than having guys fawn over you like meat." She commented then took another sip of tea.
 
Anthea shook her head. "I don't believe that is the best course of action, my lady." She stood up and walked over to the door. "You were made like this for a reason. Once you find that reason, everything terrible that happened up to that point will cease to have value." She cracked the door open and walked through until only her head was seen. "Good day, my lady." She then left.
 
Azure waited until the door was fully closed before she stood up and went over to her desk. She sat down, set her tea down, and looked through all the different books on her desk. She closed her eyes and propped her head on her hand. "Why can't I think of anything? He's not a-... oh... right. He is a god." She took a deep breath and continued thinking. "Even so, he isn't invincible. He is just a man. He has weaknesses like anyone else." As she closed her eyes, she remembered all the different men that asked her to the feast. She let out a laugh. "Loki wouldn't last three minutes if he were in my place." She commented mindlessly. Suddenly, she paused. Her smiled diminished, and she stood up. "That's it!"

The next day, Azure wandered the halls of the palace, looking for Loki. Finally, she found him walking down a hallway, his back turned to her. She smiled and silently ran up behind him. She wrapped her arms around him in a back hug. "Loki~" She smiled and laughed a bit. 
 
Loki was startled by this action, but calmed down when he realized who was hugging him. "Azure, what are you doing?" 
 
She let go of him and watched as her magic washed over him. He became the height of the average women, his hair became longer and the style changed a bit. His facial structure became more feminine as well. His shoulders weren't as broad, nor was he as muscular anymore. His clothing changed. It still held the green and gold coloring, but now he wore a rather sexy dress and heels. Once it finished, Loki became Lady Loki. She had to admit he was pretty gorgeous. Of course, this new look was just an illusion of hers. Everyone besides Loki could see this new look of his. Now, we'll see how Loki like being bothered by men constantly. 
 
"Azure?" Even the sound of his voice changed into a more feminine tone. 
 
She snapped back to the conversation and cleared her throat. "I... was wondering what your reaction would be if I gave you a hug. You seem rather grumpy, and I wondered what would happen if you received a hug." She started backing away, the goofy smile still on her face. "Bye now!" She turned around and sped walked around the corner. She wanted to follow him around for a while and see what happens. 
 
Loki had a strange look on his face. It held confusion, but it didn't say that he was appalled by the hug. He passed off the encounter as nothing and continued to his destination. Azure followed behind him like a ninja. Sooner than was thought, Lady Loki ran into her first admirer. 
 
"Why, hello there."  A young man smiled handsomely at Lady Loki. 
 
Loki looked at the man with disgust. "Why are you smiling at me like that? Get lost." Loki waved him off and took a few steps passed him. 
 
The young man grabbed Loki's arm and halted him. "Wait a minute now, I didn't mean any harm by it. I was just wondering what your name was. I haven't seen you around before." The young man explained.
 
"What?" Loki sternly asked. "How dare you address a prince of Asgard like that!" Loki pulled his arm from the man's grasp. "I could have you throw into prison for this!"
 
The young man was now thoroughly confused. "Prince of Asgard?" He paid more attention to the green and gold clothing and started sweating nervously. "Prince Loki?" 
 
"Who else would I be, you idiotic quim?" Loki insulted him. 
 
The young man held his hands up in defense. "I didn't-... I mean, you... you look like a woman." He commented. 
 
Loki's expression only became angrier. "How dare you mistake me for a woman! Begone from my sight before I have your eyes gouged from your head!" He yelled. The frightened young man scurried off quickly. 
 
Azure covered her mouth to hold back the laughter. She hid herself out of sight and stayed quiet. She followed behind the now angry Loki. Before long, Thor came in Loki's path. Azure was hoping for this, but she wasn't expecting it so soon. 
 
Thor's expression changed to a flirty one once he laid eyes on Lady Loki. "Hello, miss." He greeted with a bow. 
 
Loki was now utterly mind blown. "Thor, you oaf! Do you not recognize your own brother!" 
 
Thor gazed at Lady Loki with strange eyes. "What? Loki? Why are you in this form? I mistook you for a lovely lady." 
 
You could tell with Loki's demeanor that he was starting to catch on. He walked inside of his room, which he was heading to anyway. He went over to a mirror and looked at himself. He looked normal, nothing feminine about him. Suddenly, a noise directed his attention over to a bird on his window sill. With a little magic, Loki used the bird to his advantage. He switched their sights, momentarily. Now, he looked around his room through the bird's eyes. He looked over to where his body stood in the room. "What?!" Loki opened his eyes and switched his point of view back to his own. "When did...?" He wondered how long he was in this form. He used magic to dispel the illusion on him. 
 
Azure knew that now would be a good time to make her escape. He would track this back to her in no time at all. 
 
"Azure!" 
 
Alright, forget walking away normally. Azure picked up her dress a bit and started sprinting down the hall. She turned the corner and headed in the direction of her chambers. She outran him once, she could do it again. Sadly, she didn't have any pink dust on her this time. She glanced behind her and found Loki chasing her. Her breathing quickened as the adrenaline rushed through her. Another corner turned, she now saw her chamber doors in sight. "Just a little further." She thought to herself.
 
Loki ran down the hall behind her. He was quicker, and he knew he would catch her in no time. As she started gaining on her, his arm was grabbed, and he was halted. He turned his head to find his mother looking back at him. "Mother! Not now!" He saw Azure smiling back at him as she continued until she was safe behind the doors of her room.
 
Frigga watched Azure escape into her room and smiled. "I wanted to talk to you about something. Walk with me." She dragged him a bit before he walked on his own. "I was wondering if you have chosen a partner for the feast yet." 
 
Loki scoffed. "Mother, you know I don't fancy any of that." He calmed his breathing rate and regained his composure.
 
"Nonetheless, your father and I wish for you to bring a partner to the feast. It is an annual event that involves dancing, and it would be meaningless to show up without a partner." She kept talking him down. She knew he would give into her request eventually. "There are many beautiful young ladies around. I'm sure you shall have no trouble finding one to accompany you." 
 
"I don't care for any of the women around here. They do nothing but talk of others in a negative way if they aren't present. It would be more painful to attend with a partner than without one. I don't care for this celebration anyway. I never have." He continued denying his mother's request. 
 
"What about Azure? You seem to fancy her. She isn't like the other girls." Frigga held a small sile on her lips and watched Loki from the corner of her eye. 
 
Loki turned the idea away. "We've had this discussion before. Lady Azure is nothing more than amusement for me." 
 
"Oh, you call her Lady Azure now? That's quite polite of you." Frigga pushed one of Loki's buttons and watched him squirm. 
 
Loki fumbled with his words for a moment. "It... I..." He cleared his throat. "Since this is a formal event, it is only right if I speak of her in a formal way." He tried to pass it off as nothing.
 
"Oh, so you are taking her to the event with you?" Frigga spoke quickly, allowing him no time to refuse. "That is simply lovely dear. I will expect to see you with her during the feast. You two will look so lovely together." She clapped her hands together and started walking off. "I must be off now. So many things to be done before the feast." 
 
"Mother! I didn't...!" Loki stopped, knowing it wouldn't do him any good. His mother was a stubborn woman when she wanted to be. Now, he was expected to attend the feast with Azure. He knew she didn't have a date. She wasn't fond on the idea of this event either. He had to think of some way to convince her to accompany him. How was he going to do that?

Ahah, this is funny. I comment, and then I see you updated. Okay, so this is getting interesting. Hey, in just wondering. Could there possibly be a love triangle in the future? Oh wait, no. More like love square? Since there's that Fandlar guy too...Oh, and you go girl! Show him what you got, Azure!

applecyanide  on says about chapter 2:
Loki, omg. Of course, he's th god of mischief after all. Hmmm and you said you want some prompts? Okay...how about: In which the two become lost, and Azure blames Loki. Or: Azure attends Loki's birthday ceremony, but a princess from another land starts to become a bit too /chummy/ with Loki. Azure is (not) jealous.
