Chapter 2- Tony's New pet
Tony Stark stopped and slowly bent down to pick up the kitten in front of him.
'Awwwww, I'm so sorry you poor ickle-wickle kitty-witty!' Tony apologized in a sickening childish voice as he carefully stroked the kitten's badly damaged fur.
Just then, an important-looking women in a business suit and pencil skirt emerged from the door:
Pepper Potts.
''Tony...'' She began suspiciously but Tony interrupted her.
''Pepper! Look at this cutie iddie-bitty kitten! Can we keep it?!' Tony almost squealed, showing Pepper the transformed kitten.
Loki rolled his eyes.
Pepper gazed down at Loki with a serious, quizzical expression on her face. Those unusually bright eyes had some kind of mysterious familiarity about them that made her shiver a little- But apart from that the poor kitten looked completely harmless...
'Fine.' Pepper sighed as she gave in, 'But he is your responsibility-Not mine!'
Tony squealed with joy and hugged the little kitten tightly. Loki felt as though he was being suffocated and hissed a little,trying to scratch him off.
''Awww I'm so sorry,liddle kitty,''Tony said apologetically, ''Just a little excited, that's all.''
Pepper heaved a heavy sigh and started to walk towards the car.
''Come on now, we better get some cat food and supplies before the stores shut.''
''Yey! Come on liddle kitty, I'm going to take you home and look after your cute liddle kitten socks.''
Tony squealed annoyingly for the millionth time, carrying the kitten to the car and getting inside.
''Now my diddy kitty-What am I going to call you?''
Tony regained a more serious composure for a moment as he studied Loki's face. He was taken aback a little when he noticed the kitten's bright green eyes against the black raven fur for the first time.
''That's funny, you remind me a lot like a certain Loki...'' Tony muttered with a small smile appearing across his face.
Loki stopped. Fearing that he may be discovered...
After a brief pause, Tony once again resumed his childish play.
''That's it! I'm going to call you Loki!'' Tony exclaimed as the driver turned on the engine and started to pull out of the car park and along the streets of New York city.
Loki chuckled.
