AN:I know I have been uberly inactive and that this is undoubtedly not the one you wanted but it's the one you're getting. The reason I am posting this is because I got inspired and decided to write it down. I do however hope you enjoy this, and word before further reading, this is set in an alternate one to the one that I just wrote with Kaina.
Loki had been stripped of his magic and placed under arrest in SHEILD head quarters, both Thor and Nick deciding that he was too dangerous to take back to Asgard. They had placed him in a high security prison cell, deep within the Triskelion. Only a few people were allowed to look after him, and only one had ever gotten anything of use out of him.
She walked up to the retinal scanner and the door buzzed open, taking her first shift with Loki since she had joined the agency. She looked around before pausing and smiling as she walked slowly towards the cell which held him. He stood up and glanced at her, taking in the way she held herself, noting the difference between her and the other people that had attempted to form a weak bond with him. She walked towards him slowly, knowing that the time was her's to waste.
"What do you want wench?" he spat, trying not to cross his arms as she circled around his cell, treating him much like her prey. Well two can play at that game. He followed her, turning his body to avoid showing her his back. She simply smiled and watched him with dark brown eyes as she came back to the front of the cell.
"My name is Jada Fury, I am supposed to be looking after you. I do not see how I can do that whilst you are stuck in a cage-"
"It is not a cage-"
"You have thought it a cage before now. As I was saying, I'm your new watcher as assigned by the big man himself. I would much rather sit and talk with you but it seems that you apparently can't be trusted with civilians."
"Are you saying that you would rather sit and have tea and chat, than look after me? You are not scared of me?"
She scoffed and laced the fingers of her hands together in front of her.
"Personally I would prefer coffee over tea. And scared? You are in a cell in one of the most protected buildings in the world, of course I am scared. Just not of you."
Loki raised his fist and slammed it against the cell wall, hoping to elicit a jump, instead she stood stock still, an eyebrow raising up.
"Why are you not scared of me?" he yelled as the cell wall heated up and sent a charge through his arm, he withdrew it sharply.
"Mainly because I have seen worse, I have done worse. Also I know that you have been stripped of your powers and are functionally mortal."
"I killed eighty people in two days." he yelled back, this time she did flinch.
"Everyone has bad days, especially when you have been brainwashed to do nothing else." her eyes widened as he raised an eyebrow. She turned on her heel and retreated to the computer at the entrance to the room. She swiped her wrist as a scanner popped out of the desk and stared at the screen before standing up and turning back to face him, her brown hair falling over her shoulder.
"What, did my buffoon brother said you a letter?" Loki asked with a smug smirk as he crossed his arms.
"For starters it was an email, secondly it wasn't Thor, it was Tony reminding me to give you a good ringing out for information."
"Like that will happen, you have only just started at this job, you have no idea who I am. You have nothing to start from."
She smiled sweetly and crossed her arms before speaking.
"You're wrong. I know everything about you. You are Loki Laufeyson, raised by Odin the Allfather and Frigga after being found on Joutenheim having been left for dead after your father left you. You were raised to believe that you were an Asgardian through and through, only finding out your true heritage after a plan gone wrong. You had Thor kicked out due to the pitiful attempt at becoming king at your brothers coronation. You are the norse god of mischeif and deception, hence why no one trusts you. You fell into the darkness after letting go, getting taken in by the Chitaru and promptly mind washed and moulded into the perfect bait. I know everything about you Loki."
Loki was silent for a second before he started to laugh, turning his back on her.
"Why does everyone think that I was brainwashed, why does everyone think me unworthy of such deeds?" he yelled, his voice cracking.
"Who do you think you are, rattling of facts about me like you have read it in a book? Like you know me? Oi, wench I am talking to you!" he span around and Jada could see the way his eyes swam in the light.
"The things you did, killing eighty people, it doesn't fit your previous MO. You had motive to do what you did on Asgard, but to attack earth, that was not you. Was it?"
"What if it had been me? What if it had been me and not them?" He asked as his features froze over, all emotion vanishing. Jada uncrossed her arms and put her hands in the pockets of her leather jacket.
"If it had been you in control? Less people would have died in that span of time. You killed, what eighty people in two days, you would have killed perhaps thirteen, maybe less if it had been you. First you would have killed Jane and Darcy, this would have alerted the Avengers as to where you were, you would then kill them. By then Thor would have noticed who was missing and would have come to find you, you would use the fact that he was incensed by the death of Jane and use your superior intelligence to beat him." she said, looking him dead in the eye.
Slowly he smiled, a sincere smile as he realised that she was right.
"You are right, how did you figure that out?"
"Does it intrigue you?" she asked, her voice going higher at the end of the sentence. He nodded as she smiled.
"I spent a lot of time with your brother during your trial. Which is still being held by the way."
Loki raised an eyebrow and stood up straight, brushing down his clothes as he sent a quick glance at the door. Jada glanced at him then looked at the reflection by her shoulder before turning with a small smile.
"Hey Tony." she said as she walked past him and swiped her wrist over the screen, closing it immediately. Tony looked Loki up and down cautiously before Loki spoke.
"You know, I never did get that drink."
"Yeah, maybe when you have been proven innocent then we'll talk drinks." he replied as Jada scanned her eye to leave, going up a set of stairs before stopping the elevator with her arm. She got in and leant against the open doors button until Tony stepped inside.
"That guy gives me the creeps, he seems sort of nice but he has that vibe of unhampered insanity." he said with a glance at Jada who rolled her eyes.
"He's like you, just with less caffeine and even less sleep." she replied with a grin. Tony looked over at her with his eyebrows furrowed.
"You have never seen yourself with no caffeine have you?"
Tony shook his head as the elevator came to a stop and the doors opened. Everyone inside turned to look at them as they took their seats. Tony took the seat nearest the window whilst Jada took the seat next to Nick.
"How's it going?" Tony asked as he put his feet up on the table.
"We're still needing more evidence for his case." Natasha replied with a straight face.
"I've got that."
The people at the table turned to look at her.
"Well, some of it. Tony can you do the tech thing that means that I can project what I recorded earlier?"
Tony rolled his eyes and took his feet off the table, drawing a circle in the centre before gesturing for her to scan her wrist. She leant forwards and did so, a recording of their voices started to play making her wince.
"Sorry I really don't like the sound of my own voice. But anyway, as you can here he admits to being brainwashed."
"How can we be sure that he wasn't lying?" Natasha asked from across the table.
"He openly admitted that he was brainwashed."
"How do you know he wasn't lying, he's the god of lying."
"No, he's the god of mischief, lying just falls under the term. Besides he was nearly crying because of something I had said, people tend not to lie when their emotions are that unstable. Mainly because he could easily be betrayed by his own voice."
"So you are saying that he just admitted to having been brainwashed?" Nick said drawing their attention.
"Yes, I am."
"Being brainwashed doesn't excuse his actions."
Jada turned from Nick to look at Natasha.
"Of all the people in the room, it is you that says it. Really Natasha?"
"He killed eighty people." Natasha replied leaning on her elbows
"A fact which people seem to enjoy throwing around. How many have you killed in two days, Natasha?"
The red head sat up straighter, green eyes burning a hole in the other girls head.
"What does it matter? I am not that person anymore."
"Neither is Loki, look we've all had bad days, the worst are when they were once called good days, and what you just said Natasha proved my point. Lot-"
"Enough. Jada be quiet, you're digging yourself a hole." Nick said with a pointed glare.
"No I don't think it's enough, I am intrigued, the recording was started just after you entered the room, why are you only showing us this bit?"
"Because it is the only part which contains any evidence-"
Nick cut her off with a glare. Tony coughed and continued, drawing everyone's attention.
"What I am saying is, why are you using the sound recording and not the visual recording?"
"I didn't know it existed. Look, what does it matter either way, Loki was brainwashed, I know I am not the only person at this table that can identify the affects that has on the body." she replied aiming it at Natasha.
"Jada, I believe you still have time on your shift." Nick said, implying that she should leave before Natasha did something.
"If she leaves I am disbanding the trial and we will continue at a later date."Steve said with a pointed glare at Nick. Jada sat back down as Nick started to speak again.
"Then disband it, Jada still has work to do."
"Fine." Jada snapped, getting up and pressing the button for the lift as Thor got up and walked towards her. The doors opened finally and both of them stepped in in silence, waiting for the door to now close.
"I would like to thank you, for trying to help Loki when the others would not even think of it." Thor said as they started down to his cell.
"I barely know him, I just don't think that he should be imprisoned for something that was out of his control. I mean, yes he did kill eighty people and we can't let him get away scot free. But we should at least take it into consideration." Jada replied as she crossed her arms.
"You have a good view on the world, I like that. It will help my brother."
"Trust me, it took time to gain such a view."
