Marking this as complete but will be adding more down the road.

Summary: Loki can't seem to escape the yawning abyss.


The Abyss

It's a moment.

An instant that feels like a hundred lifetimes.

One second he's shielding Jane with his body, the next he's being yanked back by a force he can't escape.

It's the rainbow bridge all over again.

He's helpless, the grating screech of the abyss clamoring excitedly as it drags him back into its cold unforgiving embrace.

His pulse hammers wildly, skin clammy, and he realizes that the dark has come to reclaim him.

For one agonizing moment, he's utterly terrified.

Then he's rolling in the dust, heart pounding and alive.

Thor.

Loki breathes, banishes the fear, and rises.
