Pranks
Violet walks through the garden, listening to the birds chirping happily. She sighs, marking her treck towards the library. She held books in her arms, that she had just finished reading.
"Thoth?" Violet calls, climbing through the window. She looks around, only to see he wasn't in there. Then suddenly, she heard a loud snore from under the table. She places the books down and crouches over to see Anubis asleep under the table. Violet tilts her head at him, watching him closely. 'He looks so familiar. I think I read about him before. He's the God of afterlife and mummification.' Violet reaches out and touches his skin, running her finger down his face. 'His skin is sort of like mine. The olive tone to it. But mines much lighter than his. . . I guess that makes sense as we share the same ancestors.' Violet then watches as his eyes flutter open, but she continues to touch his face, then brush a strand of hair behind his ear. 'If you made his eyes have white flecks, they'd be like my right one. . . . Wait what?!' Violet tumbles backwards and scatters away, staring at Anubis in fright.
"I'm. . . I'm so sorry!" Violet shouts before stumbling out the library. Then she looks up to see Lewis stare at her.
"What do you want?" He sneers.
"Y-you're the one looking at me." She mumbles. She then looks up at him, and he glares.
"How much longer are we going to be stuck here? You need to sort those gods out."
"It's your responsibility too." Violet tells him.
"And? I'm asking you what you're going to do." Lewis glares. Violet swallows the lump in her throat.
"I think. . . I'm going to see who's the close to failing lessons. That might be helpful." Violet informs.
"Loki then." Lewis nods.
"Do you, um, need any help?" Violet hesitantly asks.
"Are you calling me stupid?" He spits.
"No! No I'm not. I've just. . . Never seen your test scores." Violet adds.
"I practise with Takeru, much to your surprise." Lewis explains. "He's quite the moron. His bastard brother is always too busy."
"Thank you Lewis for helping." Violet bows before turning slightly. "I'll see you in class." Then she runs off.

"Hades." Takeru shouts. "Tonight is the astronomical surgery, right?"
"That's right. Let's get ready." Hades answers as he leaves the class.
"Next, I'll go water the flower beds." Dionysus said, grinning.
"Balder! Let's go to the tennis courts together! Together!" Apollo shouts. 'Everyone is participating I club activities together seriously. . . But. . .'
"Loki, what's the news committee doing?" Thor asks.
"Me? I'm going to the going home club today." Loki smirks. 'Loki always goes straight to The dormitory after class. He's always furtive in class too. Loki is defiantly the closest to failing.'
"Excuse me, Lok-"
"Oh, it's already that time! I'm going to the Going Home Club! Bye bye." He coos, running out the class. 'He ran away from me. Dos he not like me again! Did I upset him?'
"Sorry." Thor apologises.
"No, no. It's fine. It's not your fault Thor." Violet waves her hands around.
"Loki is going back to the dormitory to set traps." Thor informs. Violet blinks owlishly. "He sets traps for balder and has fun on his expense. I, too, have to be careful."
". . . Okay." Violet nods in determination. 'Loki is defiantly the one that needs the most help. I have to make him understand that just going to class isn't enough.' Violet walks out the school building and towards the boys dorms. Entering inside, she sees its empty. 'Well most boys are in clubs, I should expect it to be empty.' She continues to walk inside and up the stairs the s tops outside Loki's room.
"Its open." Violet notes then reaches out to open it. "Loki?"
"Violet!" Thor shouts. Violet turns to see him running down the hallway, and just as she was about to speak, a giant pillow carrot fell on her head. Violet yelps in surprise as she falls onto the floor. She hears Loki chuckle as he opens the door.
"Fell right into my trap, didn't you Bal-" Loki stares down at Violet in shock. "Why it's you? What are you dong?"
"Loki!" Violet jumps up. "Why are you always pranking?" Violet inquires.
"It's nothing. Why does it matter to you anyways?"
"Because it does." Violet retorts. "Pranking people might be fun. . . But going to classes and participating in extra clubs is even better!" Violet points out.
"Isn't. That why I go to my dormitory? For The Going Home Club?" Loki questions. Violet clenches her fists in frustration.
"Loki!" Violet shouts. "I'll join you in the club to see it with my own eyes! Well create and brainstorm prank ideas in The club." Loki smirks mischievously.
"Isn't this becoming interesting now?" He quirks a brow. Violet felt a sinking feeling in her gut. 'I hope I didn't make the wrong decision.'
Violet leads Loki down to the longs with Thor following behind. She empties out her books from her bag and places them all on the table.
"So, what are we going to do?" Loki asks, placing his fist against his cheek. Violet gets an idea.
"Since you don't know, because you skipped class. . . We talked about new prank ideas!it was very useful!" Violet beams. Violet stares at her in astonishment. He crosses his arms and was silent for a moment.
"Really? Well,there's no harm in trying." Loki purses his lips.
"So let's not waste time!" Violet claps. "We can get started on these!. She pats the pile of books. Loki blinks at them and starts reading them. Violet waits patiently as he reads, seeing if he needed any help or wanted to ask a question. She soon became bored and got out her own book. It was one hour later before anyone spoke up.
"It that all?. Loki asks, leaning back in his chair. 'That was quick. He read through all five books.' "By the way, why are there faces on things humans call 'money'?" He asks. Violet thinks for a moment.
"I think it's because we respect them and they did a duty to their country, so in return we put their faces on notes and coins." Violet answers.
"And here, 'Makunouchi Bento'. Why is it called 'Makaunouchi'?" Loki inquires. Violet stares blankly, then at her lap in horror.
"I-I don't know." She whispers. 'He asked a question and I don't know the answer! I a horrible teacher! Absolutely horrible!'
"What? You don't know? Then as a punishment-" Loki pulls out a box. "-You have to eat this!" He opens the box to show of round cookies with black and yellow patterns on it, looking like a hazard sign. "Loki-sama's special made Devils biscuits!"
"Devil biscuits?" Violet takes one cautiously. She looks at it, then Loki, then back at the biscuit. Then it suddenly excretes purple gas. Violet gawks at it as Loki giggles. She stares at it in determination and stuffs the whole thing in her mouth. The. Her eyes widen in awe.
"This is amazing! It changes flavour each time i chew!" Violet said excitedly. She continues to chew it, humming happily. Loki grins happily and holds out a box.
"Hmm, quite straight forward aren't we? Next you open this." He holds out a smallpox with a ribbon around it. 'It probably has an item inside that jumps out. That seems like the normally prank.'
"Oh, okay." Violet takes the box from him and slowly opens it, only for a massive Spring snake to jump out the box. Thor yells and wobbles on his chair, a look of fear covering his face. Violet catch the snake and tries to put it back in the box, but it kept on jumping out. She purses her lips in agitation and moves it to the side. "Thor, are you okay?"
"I'm. . . Fine." Thor breaths. 'He must be scared of snakes or something. It's reassuring to know that gods are scared of things too.' Violet thinks, watching Thor stare in fright at the box. Loki chuckles and Violet sighs then picks up a book.
"Alright, whilst I'm searching up the answer, you can. . . Ask another one." Violet tells him. Loki cocks a brow at her. Loki leans forwards on his hand and smirks at Violet.
"I won't stop pulling pranks." Loki warns.
"That's fine. It's who you are." Violet to,d him, continuing to flick through the book and not give him a glance. "As long as you agree to learn." Loki tilts his head at her, his brow furrowed.
"I'm back!" Balder announces as he enters the dorm. "Oh, everyone's here." He walks towards the table.
"Welcome back Balder." Loki coos, wiggling his finger tips at the blond. "Oh right, we're doing club activities." Balder gives them a closed eye smile.
"Oh. . . Should I also join the 'Going Home Club', then?" Balder asks.
||| Time Skip |||
Violet walks down the hall with a book in hand, Thor to her right carrying a stack of books for her and Balder and Loki chat away in front. 'We've all been revising recently, but it'd be good to have a break.' Violet thought as she read. She shivers slightly as they walk past an open window.
"Are you alright?" Thor asks. Violet smiles slightly and looks up to him sheepishly.
"Just a bit cold." Violet admits. Thor then cast his gaze out the window and Violet follows it. Then her eyes brighten as she runs to the window to push her hands and face against the glass. "It's snowing again!"
"The snow piled up!" Loki sings happily, doing the same as Violet. Violet stares in awe out the window and looks to the boys with a childish grin, only to see them all with small smiles on their faces.
"This reminds me of our homeland." Balder smiles. Violet blinks, only to remember. 'They're Norse gods. Snow is normal to them.'
"You're right. . ." Thor agrees.
"Ah, now I want to go play in the snow!" Loki coos, bunching his fists up in glee.
"That's a great idea!" Violet agrees.
They all soon meet outside with their hats and gloves, playing around in the snow.
"This is an igloo." Violet pats the snow house she just finished making. "It puts up defence so the wind and snow can't get in." Balder and Thor peer inside. Suddenly a snowball hits her head, and she feels the cold flakes run down her spine.
"And this is called a snowball fight!" Loki shouts. Violet grins happily as Thor runs away, and she quickly makes snowballs in her hands and launches them at Loki, only to miss. She giggles happily, a giant grin on her face that made Loki stop for a second. 'This is like when she was under that drug after the games.' He watched as she slung her arm forwards and hit his chest, and he smirked and launched a hurricane of balls back at her. Violet shrieks happily and run, covering the back of her head with her hands.
"Come here." Balder laughs and places his hand on Violets shoulder. Violet ends up pushing her chest into Balder's side and she blushes immensely. Then a snowball avoids her and lands on the floor. "If you stuck to me, the snowballs won't hit you." Violet stares up at him in slight awe.
"I forgot you could do that." She said. "But. . . I won't lose!" She grins as she scoops up some more snow and makes snowballs. She runs towards Loki and throws them quickly, only for him to run and dodge them. Then suddenly something unexpected happens. "He's. . . H-he's flying!" Violet shouts as she jumps around and points at him. "You're cheating!"
"It's not cheating. Isn't this normal for a god?" He grins, floating in the air around Violet. "If you think it's unfair, try to hit me." 'Now he has more openings and no defence. In other words, I'm more likely to win!'
"Remember what you said." Violet sings, giggling as she launches more snowballs at the Norse god.
"Are you declaring war on Loki-sama? In that case, i need to respond to your expectations." Suddenly a hurricane of snow fell on Violet and she helps, then suddenly trips. "You fell into my trap! Loki-sama's especially made trap!"
Violet fell hard hitting her head, everything soon turning black.

Violets eyes flutter open to see she's in the boys lounge, lying on the sofa.
"Violet, are you alright?" Balder asks, running to her bed side. Violet looks at him groggily and sits up. She nods slowly, rubbing her face with her palms. "I'm going to get you a towel. Thor, come with me." Balder and Thor soon leave the room as Violet yawns, brushing her hair through with her hand. She then pulls her knees up to her chest, her face flushing in embarrassment. 'I declared war on Loki! I'm such an idiot. That was so embarrassing.'
" . . . Isn't it time for you to give up?" Someone asks. Violet looks up to see Loki leaning against the wall, a plain expression on his face. "By now, you too feel hatred towards my pranks and start to hate me, don't you?" Loki asks. His expression looked like a cross between tired and bored, and he hadn't looked Violet in the eyes since she woke up. Violet smiles gently, an endearing look in her eyes. She tilts her head, Loki finally making eye contact with her.
"I could never hate you Loki. . . No matter how many times you prank me, or tease me. I wouldn't be able to. You're finally my friend, and I wouldn't give that up for the world." Violet grins. Loki let's lets a short chuckle, so a confused look passes on Violets face.
"You're a weird person." Loki shakes his head, looking off to the right. "Nice when I was alone, Balder and Thor were just like you. They were the only ones who didn't leave me, no matter how much damage I caused."
"Alone?"
"Because I was hated by the gods. Was alone, I wished for someone to notice me. I wanted someone by my side. . . Oh. . . Even such, have always been searching for someone that would want to by my side. . ." Loki explains. He leans his head back against the wall, staring at the ceiling. Then he feels a sudden warmth elope him.
"Loki. . . I'm so sorry." He stares down in shock to see Violet hugging his torso. "I was alone. . . Then I had friends to help me. I'm sure Balder and Thor would do anything for you like you did for me. But I lost my friends again. . . I lost everything I had except the memories. I understand the pain you went through and made my own wishes." She then looks up to him, her chin just brushing his chest. "I won't ever let you be alone again. Me, Bader and Thor will never leave your side!" Violet promises. Loki let's out a sigh and closes his eyes. He looks down at Violet through half lidded eyes and Violet furrows her eye brow. He leans down slowly as Violets cheeks slowly get hotter. He then kisses her cheek. Violet quickly turns red as she cradled her kissed cheek.
"K-k-Ki-ki-kiss?!" She stutters. Loki laughs.
"I found your weakness." Then Violet stares up at him in confusion. "Even though I know it wouldn't make a difference if I pulled pranks or not, I always find it musing seeing you blush. O I won't stop pulling pranks." The redette winks. Violet pouts, puffing out her cheeks.
"Loki!" She whines, scowling at the boy. Balder and Thor renter the room.
". . . It seems Loki has changed." Thor noted. Balder nods slowly as he watches his friends interact. He then let's out of puff of air through his nose.
"Yes. . . I'd does seem so."
