"Good morning Dimi" A mechanical voice greeted her. Purely on instinct Dimi flew from under the white covers and drew her sword, looking around for the source of the voice. "What kind of Midguardian magic is this?!" The masculine sounding voice spoke up again, startling Dimi. She whirled around, sword still drawn. "I'm known as Jarvis, 's advisor, Ms. Potts has asked me to direct you to the bar" The bar?, oh yeah that drink Tony mentioned yesterday.
Slowly she stretched the kinks out of her shoulders, and listened in on Thor and Loki's room. Either they are up and waiting for me or they're still sleeping, oh well only one way to find out. Dimi grabbed her chest piece, then gauntlets, and finally her shoulder pieces. Sheathing her sword she walked down the hallway listening to Jarvis giving her directions to navigate this maze.
Pepper turned to the sound of shuffling metal and fairly quiet footsteps. Her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when she noticed Dimi's wings, Another Asguardian? They have wings too! Quickly composing herself she gestured to the seat next to her and poured them both a drink.
"If you don't mind me asking, what happened?" Pepper asked taking on the big sister act. Dimi looked into her drink her fingers running over the smooth cold glass "The Chitauri". "Oh" Pepper nodded understandingly. "So that's those things that attacked us earlier?" she innocently asked. Dimi's breath hitched. How she hated those disgusting creatures. "Yes, they attacked my planet." Pepper didn't ask any more questions, she had a pretty good idea what happened and she guessed quite correctly it was a sensitive topic. Dimi physically tensed when Pepper put a hand on her shoulder and looked into her eyes "If it means anything, I'm really sorry".
Thor's booming voice met Dimi's sensitive ears, Does he not know the meaning of quiet?! "Dimi of justice, I am ready to take my leave!" His voice was grating on her ears but, she tolerated it, he was only letting her know his plans. At least he didn't leave her behind. "I'm in here Thor" Dimi called out. Thor came in, Loki dragging in behind looking positively annoyed.
"Ah well, come on, the metal man is giving us a ride in his carriage." Thor announced, grabbing Dimi roughly by her biceps, dragging her and Loki down several flights of stairs and outside. Thor pushed Loki in the passenger seat before getting in himself. Tony patted the passenger seat next to him. "Come on doll it won't bite" She gave him an apprehensive look and climbed in.
Thank the fates that was quick, this is no carriage you buffoon!
Tony gave her one last thanks and Dimi was left standing in between Loki and Thor. Little mortal children and adults ran around, I'm in a public outside hall of sorts?
Thor grasped Dimi's hand and she gave him the 'what the hell do you think you're doing?' look. He quirked his brow. "We have to grasp hands, unless you feel like being lost between realms with no way back". "Fine" Dimi retorted and held her hand out to Loki waiting. His eyes flashed and Loki grasped her wrist instead of her hand. That filfthy creature's hands are freezing!
Blue flames engulfed them and slowly made the trio disappear. Dimi felt herself being stretched and then snapped back into place in the blink of an eye. She wobbled a little before gaining her footing. Following Thor, Dimi was stopped by a golden sword. "Thor, state her business here." Thor patted the giants arm. "Calm Heimdall she belongs with us, she wishes to have a council with the Allfather." Heimdall nodded, letting them pass.
Three male guards approached them on horseback. All of them had helmets with some sort of horn design, what is Asguards obession with gold and horns?, Is it a symbolic thing?, Dimi wondered mounting the black steed that was supplied to her by the guards.
The city of Asguard was a breath taking sight to behold, true to the legends Dimi had heard as a child. They made it swiftly to the castle's entrance with the guards escorting them there and to the throne room. Loki walked behind Thor and Dimi next to Thor. Watching them both bow, it was safe to assume she should to.
"Rise" Odin said looking down curiously at Dimi. "Thor what is the meaning of this?" Odin asked pointing his staff at Dimi. "She didn't say but, she has information that could prove to be valuable, father". Odin glanced back at Dimi, a cold stare if you asked her, "State your business".
Dimi nodded "I am Dimi, goddess of justice. It's known to me that you intend to punish Loki for his mishaps. As goddess of justice I am compelled to say this, I do not believe Loki is to be held entirely at fault".
Odin stood slamming his scepter down in anger "Who are you to say as to whether or not Loki is responsible for his actions!" Thor took a step closer "Father please let her explain!" Odin nodded "Quickly then!" "The scepter that Thor has in possession, is not meant for the hands of non-Litari, I believe Thanos gave it to him. The moment it laid in his hands Loki was nothing more than a tool to be used".
Odin seemed to take this in, thinking, he kept his gaze on Dimi, "I will think on this but, I don't trust you yet Dimi. You will be bound to Loki and both of you shall sit in the glass cell unti I've made my decision".
Flabbergasted Dimi just gawked till the first coherent word came to mind "Bound?". Odin nodded gesturing two guards forward, they cuffed Loki's hand to Dimi's. Great, this went well. I get to hang in his stench till the twir makes up his mind!
The glass cell was surprisingly nice for a prisoner, it had the basics of furniture, a bed and a few chairs. Much against her wishes the guards took off Loki's metal muzzle and pushed them both inside, sealing the nearly seamless door.
Loki smirked, his silver tongue began to work its magic."You are a hideous creature not worthy of my presence!" Thor sitting outside the cage bellowed: "You will hold your tongue brother!" Loki hissed "I am not your brother! I never was!"
Her blood boiled, how dare he! "Look you ungrateful spoiled prince, I should slay you where you stand!" Loki smirked ,he could feel the hum of magic coming off her in waves, just a little more to push her over the edge. Dimi pulled on the cuffs. "Don't speak to me that way -" Loki yelled then leaned in closer " –pet." That did it. Dimi burned the cuffs and was just about to maul Loki's face but Thor came in "Enough!You two will stop this irrational behavior!"
Both Loki and Dimi looked at Thor. Dimi sat herself on the farthest side away from Loki, it was going to be a long and sleepless night stuck in the same room as Loki. At least I don't have to endure your stench so close! Thor sat right outside of the cage, watching to make sure they didn't kill
