Chapter 3: Changed
Chapter Text
It didn't take Thor long to get Loki out of the cell, in truth it was very simplistic. When Loki finally got out Thor had started walking towards the exit, not even noticing that his brother had turned around to another cell. He only stopped when he heard the distinct sound of another cell opening.
"Loki, Brother, we have to worry at any moment-" However Thor stopped mid-sentence taking in the image before him. Before him was his cruel brother cradling a young woman as if she would break any moment, a precious glass in his hands that could fall to pieces at any moment. Loki took no notice of Thor's curious gaze; his eyes were firmly on the woman in his arms.
"I told you I would get you out, it's not a guard, but the bloke is as smart as one anyhow." Loki whispered, knowing full well she couldn't hear him.
Turning his attention back to Thor his eyes hardened again. "I need to get her to the infirmary."
When Thor, got closer to Loki, he had a better look at the woman in his brother's arms, it shocked him, he didn't think this is where she would be, and he thought her dead, that the convergence had sucked her in whole.
"Lady Darcy, you truly are an impressive mortal." Thor said, despite his worry for his young shield sister he was happy to see her alive. "How long has she been here?"
"She arrived shortly after the attack." Loki answered. "She will be okay she just needs rest."
Loki said this more to himself than Thor, the mortal had wormed her way to Loki's conscious and he knew he had to keep her safe. He couldn't stand seeing her like this, even in sleep the tremors of pain still had her in their clutches and he made a silent vow that she would make it, he just needed to earn his freedom.
"How did the guards not notice another body in the cells?" Thor demanded.
"You know as well as I that the guards wouldn't even feed the prisoners if they had it their way." Loki bit out.
When they had finally made it the infirmary Darcy's hands were white with the force she was holding on to Loki's tunic, making it even harder for him to let her go. It was obvious that if Loki had it his way he wouldn't leave, and Thor, saw this.
"Brother we must leave now, the healers will know what to do." Thor said once Loki was free of the mortal.
Seems how he was no longer in his cell he was able to put on his leathers that they had thrown into the infirmary when they were treating his wounds and left with his brother knowing full well he would be back.
Taking his mind off the woman in the infirmary he paid close attention to his brother, it was no use dwelling on something he could not change. Thor was quiet and determined and Loki, had seen that something in him had changed. His old brother would be loud in his steps and even then a grin would be plastered upon his face, however this was not his old brother, a new brother had taken his place. He had changed.
"This is so unlike you, brother. So clandestine, are you sure you wouldn't rather punch your way out?" Loki said with a mischievous smile.
"If you keep speaking I just might." Thor bit back.
"Fine. As you wish I'm not even here." He said a cat like arrogance surrounding him before he changed himself into someone more inconspicuous. "Is this better?"
"It's better company at least" Loki shook his head.
"Still we could be less conspicuous." He said reasoning himself. "Hmm brother, you look ravishing."
So he had changed Thor, into the image of the Lady Sif, Thor, was reasonably not impressed with Loki's antics. "It will hurt no less when I kill you in this form."
"Very well. Perhaps you prefer one of your new companions, given that you seem to like them so much." He said morphing into the form of Captain America changing Thor back in the process. "Oh, this is much better. Woah! Costume's a bit much, it's so tight~ But the confidence! I can feel the righteousness surging! Hey, wanna have a rousing discussion about truth, honour, and patriotism God bless America-"
Thor had changed however, and had Loki pinned to a pillar his palm firmly pressed against Loki's mouth in an attempt to shut him up.
"What?" Loki asked knowing full well that there were two soldiers walking along the plaza. "You can at least furnish me with a weapon. My dagger, something!"
The sound of sliding metal makes Loki smile at the fact that he may be getting something to arm himself with. "At last, a little common sense." However it was short lived as his hand were encased in cuffs, Loki couldn't help but think about how Darcy, was going to laugh at him for his foolishness of being caught in such a lame trap.
"I thought you liked tricks?" Thor smiled.
They had finally made it, waiting for the Lady Sif and Jane. Bother were taking longer than the brothers thought. Loki was starting to get bored and that was never good. However before he could try anything he saw the two women walking towards him. It was the Lady Jane who spoke first.
"You're-"
"I'm Loki. You may have heard of me." Loki said smugly only to get smacked in the face.
"That was for New York."
Loki chuckling at the ambitious midgardian. "I like her."
