Loki

The next hour was a blur. Loki told Charmaine about Operation D.E.L, and she looked like she wanted to say something, but was scared to say it. But she was really happy for him. Loki showered for the first time in a Midgardian household, and wasn't surprised when he found he lost his ability to turn into a Frost Giant when he's cold. Then they ate dinner together.

Soon it was time for bed.

Both Charmaine and Loki fell asleep immediately , but while Charmaine slept soundly, Loki had a nightmare that scared the shit out of him.

"Loki…."

Loki slowly opened his eyes. He saw Charmaine stand before him, badly wounded, her face and eyes both red. To his terror around her was piles and piles of rubble.

"I thought I trusted you." Her voice was completely colourless, without the usual cheery mood.

"No, I…..Did I do all this?"He was terrified. What happened!?

"Glad you knew ." A bitter laugh escaped her lips. "I saw you cackling like an evil maniac."

"No, I….Let me explain…" Loki cried, then the scene abruptly faded.

Now Loki is in Asgard, surrounded by guards. Neither Odin nor Thor was to be seen.

"Huh? Where's Thor?" He whispered.

"Do you know no mercy? You killed them, traitor." One of the guards said.

"Wha…" Before Loki could respond, everyone started shouting at him.

The Avengers. Charmaine. The and Jane. All shouting:

Traitor,traitor,traitor,traitor….

Charmaine

A scream pierced the relaxing darkness of her sleep .

It was Loki, sitting up and massaging his head. Surely he have had a nightmare of some sort, So she decided to ask him .

"…Loki? What's going on?" She asked meekly ,still feeling really drowsy.

She blinked a few times to open her eyes completely, her dark chocolate eyes meeting Loki's emerald green ones.

"Nothing Charmaine, go back to sleep."Loki's voice told her that her hypothesis was true.

" Er….What was that scream then?" She had to ask.

"FINE,I'll tell you!"Loki said in an irritated tone. And told her all about it.

"Wow, that's really scary. I would go in a coma if I were you." She said, clearly taken aback.

"I know, right?" Loki heard himself say. What is wrong with him? She's just a puny mortal. How come he treated her like a…a friend?

"Yeah, right." There was a hint of sadness in her voice. Loki was slightly surprised by her tone.

"What is it ?" He asked.

"….Ahhh it's nothing…I'll go back to sleep." She quickly finished and lay down.

Loki, as the God of Lies, knew instantly that something was wrong.

If this mortal girl was going to help him, he was going to help her back.
