   I rushed into the nearby public bathroom and over to the mirrors that hung over the sinks. I watched in wide-eyed horror as my hair, all of it, from my roots to the tips which reached my mid back changed from muddy brown to a brilliant snow white. It was like someone had pure white watery acrylic paint over my head. I ran my hand through the strands shaking, "Bloody hell..." I breathed, "Alright, this is REALLY weird. Maybe I should call him after all..."

        You didn't have to call me. I came to check on you." The boy's voice came from behind me.

        I whirled around to face his concerned expression and I quickly shoved him out following behind, "Are you INSANE Loki??!! That was the GIRL'S lavatory, you prat!"

        Loki gave me a half bewildered and half affronted, "I feel like that was an insult. Your British slang is quite confusing."

        I sighed, prat meant ass, he was being an ass but what I said summed it up, "It means... you are an idiot. Now, come on!!" Before Loki could protest I drug him off in the direction of my best friend's house.

(LOKI'S P.O.V.)

        'This... this mortal girl is so frustrating! Why do I like her so?? She called me, ME, a god, an idiot!!' I let out a tolerant sigh as she drug me along. "Why's your hair white?" I asked curiously.

        She sighed and slowed down, pushing a few strands of her hair behind her left ear. "It's complicated... I'll explain later..." She replied quietly.

        We soon arrived at a large house, it's outside walls were painted a dull forest green and the metal roof was a dirty tan. It stood awkwardly between two apartment buildings. Rose hurried up through the gate that had a white picket fence connected which surrounded the yard and she made her way up a cobblestone path. I quickened my pace and managed to catch up with her when she was on the first concrete step. "Who are we visiting?" I asked curiously.

        "My best friend." She replied shortly. Avoiding the potted plants and scattered garden tools she leaned over a fallen metal rake to press the doorbell. The chiming it caused could be heard even from where we stood outside.

(ROSE'S P.O.V.)

        Julie opened the door and blinked at my shocking appearance, "Woah! What happened to your hair??" I rolled my eyes as she spotted Loki and squealed, "Oooh! Aaaand a boy?! Rose, are you going rebel??"

        "Oh, for the love Jules. Let us in." I laughed.

        She nodded blushing awkwardly and stepped out of our way to let us in.

(LOKI'S P.O.V.)

       This... Jules was strange. She was short and stout in stature and her long blonde hair was tied into a messy braid that lay over her left shoulder. She had cherry pink lips and her eyes were a strange brown that almost looked gold. That was odd... seeing as that combination was rare among mortals and more common among... no way. Not possible. Was she a Valkyrie? But, that would be impossible... Wouldn't it?
