(Loki's POV)

Loki was laying on his bed confused. He was not sure how to process everything that had happened to him recently and Fandral was incredibly confusing to him. The man had gone from ignoring him, to raping him, and then trying to make it up to him. He didn't even know what to think of him anymore.

He picked at his bed sheets and thought about his life and what he would do. He certainly wasn't interested in sexual relations and wasn't quite sure why he allowed Fandral to please him. He hadn't really been interested in such acts, but at the same time he didn't want to remember being raped as the last time he experienced sexual contact. Overall, he was incredibly distraught with his own thoughts and it was making him tense and stressed.

It was at this point that the door to his room was thrown open and he quickly sat up. Several guards and Odin all ran through the door and inspected his room. The guards left as quickly as they came, however Odin remained behind. He threw his arms around Loki and promised him that everything would be alright and that the traitors would be prosecuted to the fullest extent quickly.

"Wait, what?" was the only reply Loki managed to get out.

Odin pulled back and gave him an odd look. "Those traitors that defiled you in such a manner. I received a letter from Fandral explaining the situation and I have set a trial for tomorrow."

He took a moment to process Odin's words and couldn't believe everything was happening so fast. What surprised him the most however was that Fandral had admitted everything to Odin. "What will you do to them?" He asked his voice softer from the confusion and realization about what Odin must think of him now.

Odin's face looked sympathetic and he reached out to take Loki's hand. "I will level the maximum punishment against them. They shall not get away with this."

Loki nodded agreeing with the statement, however he felt slightly unsettled at the same time. "And what of Fandral?" He did not want the man to get off easy, but he felt that the maximum punishment might be a bit harsh for him; after all he did try to repent.

Odin's expression hardened. "He too will receive the maximum punishment and be removed from the palace immediately in disgrace."

Loki decided to voice his opinion even though he did not expect it to be considered. "If I may interject my personal thoughts on the subject" Odin nodded to give him permission and squeezed his hand." I do not think that Fandral needs the maximum punishment."

"Why!" Odin yelled clearly confused. "Has he threatened you further?"

Loki stood and started to pace as he attempted to voice his thoughts clearly. "No, but I do not think the others are sorry about what they have done, while Fandral is. I am not saying that you should not punish him, as it is what he deserves. However, I feel that he deserves a chance to repent and learn from this experience."

Loki felt satisfied with his statement and waited for Odin to finish contemplating and reply. "You speak wisely my son, and I shall take your words into consideration tomorrow at the trial. It is early and I wish for you to be in attendance. I will ensure your protection by leaving guards stationed at your door, and they will escort you tomorrow. Get some rest." As Odin walked out he turned back and said quietly "I wish you would have told me."

Loki understood when Odin was deep in thought and dismissing someone so he nodded and sat back down on his bed while Odin left. He still could not believe that Fandral would confess to Odin while well aware what the punishment would be. Injuring a member of the royal family was considered treason when done without sparring. This offense would be costly to the group he was a part of too, but that was of little concern to him. He drifted uneasily to sleep still slightly dazed.

The next morning he awoke feeling more confident about facing his attackers, and the guards were not the only ones escorting him to the trial. With them was Thor who pulled him aside and said he would crush them after their punishment was carried out. Loki nodded but waved him off with Thor relenting to his wishes. Thor also glared at every person who looked at him oddly on the way to the trial and made sure that no one stepped out of line. For females being raped was bad enough, but for males it was considered disgraceful, and Loki did not look forward to the awkwardness that was sure to follow that day. He had also been abused and overpowered, two things that he was sure those who thought ill of him would taunt him about.

The trial was quick for those accused, but Loki noticed that Fandral was not present. The members argued but were rejected when Heimdall gave his testament. Loki did not particularly like him, but he also knew how much Heimdall despised these people and couldn't wait to see them punished. It was well known that they drove the gatekeeper crazy and that he wanted to run them through himself. The only thing that kept him from exposing their deeds was his vow of not giving out information unless asked or if it threatened Asgard.

Fandral was brought in after the maximum punishment was leveled against the others, and he was given a chance to speak. After he explained his situation Odin contemplated what to do for a moment. "I have decided that even though you committed atrocious deeds to give you a new punishment. Instead of our typical punishment for this crime you will instead be removed from the palace and forced to repent your action in various ways to the community for a century."

The court was silent during this, and Loki was glad that Odin listened to him. He clearly was looking for a punishment to allow Fandral to learn, and this would be a good lesson for him. Such punishment was usually not given out and the relief on Fandral's face was obvious. "Thank you Allfather, I am grateful for the chance you have allotted me." This was said with a bow and Fandral was removed from the court as they all dissipated.

At sunset the time to carry out the punishment for the others had come and they were all dragged to the place where it would commence. This stage was typically for executions or to punish rapists, and most of the events were heavily attended. Today the executioner was using his smaller axe and chopping board. The men were all brought out with their arms shackled and their pants down.

Odin took the stage as the sun started to dip and gave a lengthy speech to boost the crowd moral since the figures being punished were well known and popular. Uproar had gone through the crowd at the verdict with both supporters and anti-supporters. Therefore, he was ensuring that he gathered the support of his people during this time.

A drum roll started and the first man, Carro, was pushed toward the block. He was shaking but attempting to look strong to please the crowd. His manly parts were arranged on the block and the executioner swiftly struck down removing them from Carro's body. He screamed loudly and was dragged weeping to the healing rooms. The rest of the men followed, and Loki felt a twinge of satisfaction at the events.


(Fandral's POV)

Fandral was grateful for Odin's lenience and knew that Loki must have helped him get it, so he arranged for a meeting with the prince. Loki was escorted by multiple guards to his new residence in a populated and run-down part of the city. Loki told the guards to wait outside, an order they reluctantly followed.

"I want to express gratitude for the lenience that I know you helped me get." Fandral started off hoping to get the conversation started.

Loki leaned back and nodded. "You are welcome, and thank you for turning yourself and the others in. I was rather impressed by that."Fandral was very pleased with this because Loki very rarely awarded compliments. "I also heard that you gave up your membership and position. Why is that?" Loki looked confused and Fandral supposed that his decision did seem rather hasty.

"I did not want to be a part of a group that required such acts to be a member. Besides I like the ring of The Warriors Three better. They are not happy with me, but they are still associating with me so I am grateful." Fandral stated hoping to clear up that particular bit of confusion.

Loki nodded looking thoughtful for a moment. "I have spoken to Tyr, and he was appalled at the actions committed by the group. He is intending to make changes and Odin is working with him on them."

They sat in silence for a moment awkwardly glancing here and there. Finally, Fandral decided to bring up the main question on his mind. "So what about us now?" He was tense as he seen Loki's face fall and body slump back.

Loki looked him straight in the eye and said "We move on, like this never happened." He said it with such conviction that Fandral nodded and accepted it.

A few weeks later Fandral was assigned to fix up an area on the palace grounds near the library that was set aside for the residents of the city. It was a main meeting place for a number of organizations and he was working hard under constant supervision. He had originally thought that he had gotten off easy, but now after working everyday like a slave he was beginning to question that judgment. He was also considered a rapist and therefore needed to get permission to go anywhere. He was always supervised, except when in the bathroom, and even then the guard was outside the door.

He wiped his brow and continued to work on the area planting flowers and such. He looked up and seen Loki sitting in the library watching him work while reading a book. They made eye contact and Loki smirked at him. It was then that Fandral decided that maybe things weren't so bad after all.
