I don't own anything, just the OC


Chapter 3:

Epiphany

Next day I couldn't look at him straight in the eyes, we've been working together for weeks and now I'm acting like a schoolgirl in love. Whenever those deep chocolate eyes met mine I blush and turn around, lately I've been working like mad on the research and training like I'm getting ready for a Wrestling Tournament, mostly because my mind would wander off and end up thinking about him.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying its love but something in the way he smiles makes my heart skip a beat…

~Bruce~

The way she avoid me made me quite uneasy, Did I say something last night to make her uncomfortable?...or maybe….is it because I'm too weak?.

Calm down Banner, right now it's not the time to go thinking about something like that…

"Cloverfield!"

"Yes, Sir" I wasn't in the mood for Fury's rampages.

"We found Loki, you are going in the jet with Romanoff and Rogers, go get your suit" I groaned at the thought of the damn skin tight suit.

"Are you ready?" Steve asked me, concern in his eyes.

"Yeah don't worry, we've trained enough right?" I answered to calm him down

"I guess, I don't want to lose a soldier…again"

"Steve, we're not soldiers, just humans with weird freaky abilities" he laughed at little but went back to make strategies in his mind.

"We're here" Natasha broke our little chat.

"Be careful, I don't want to mess with the Hulk if you're not back and safe" he shot me a smirk as I exited the jet.

"Is this not your natural state? It's the unspoken truth of humanity that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power. For identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end, you will always kneel."

Loki…God of Mischief, envious of Thor, jealous of the achievements of his once conceited brother.

While he kept talking about his almighty self, I carefully crawled into the group and lead as much people as I could to a safer place.

~Loki~

"…In the end, you will always kneel."

I watched in pleasure the scared looks in the crowd's face, a movement in the back of it distracted me from my perfect speech.

A human girl, light olive skin, with long straight raven hair and eyes to match, she wasn't like the beauties of Asgard, she was….plain, but her looks wasn't what got my attention.

She thought it came unnoticed to me how she took the people away. I decided to play with her for a bit.

"Not to men like you." An old German man dared to talk to me

"There are no men like me."

"There are always men like you." I raised my staff, maybe if I hurt this nuisance something would trigger inside the girl…I could sense it, her soul was filled with wrath, with pain. I smirked, I'd love to taste her bittersweet heart, I'd love to see her break in pieces.

~Yvaine~

I glanced back at Loki, he raised his staff and smirked in my direction, his emerald eyes connected with mine for a second, the blue stone in his staff glowed as he targeted the old german.

I turned my body into stone and shield the man from the attack, but my powers betrayed me like I expected it.

"Sorry for the delay" Steve used his shield and reflected Loki's attack.

"Ah, the soldier out of time." Loki kept unfazed.

"Trust me, the only one outta time is you " he growled at Loki

Loki smirked as he slowly walked towards the girl on the floor.

"Isn't she interesting Capitan?" he grab her by the neck with his cold hands

"Back away"

"Those eyes….deep and dark, like her little fragile soul…" Loki placed the blue stone of his staff in her heart.

"Capitan in the blue spandex told you to back away from the lady" a robotic voice said from above as Shoot to Thrill played in the background.

"…and then you turn to the left" Natasha told Steve where Yvaine's room was.

Steve walked down the hall with the raven haired girl in his arms when he bumped into Bruce.

"Oh god, what happened to her!"

"We…encountered Loki, didn't went well for her" Bruce shot Steve a look that said "Oh really?"

"I'll take her" Steve carefully slipped the unconscious girl into his arms.

~Bruce~

I carefully laid her the bed, her face was lightly bruised and every time she moved, pain groans came out from her mouth.

As I watched her sleep I realized, you can't love someone without loving yourself first. I won't get anywhere weeping around, I needed to become stronger, this time I wasn't there to protect her but now I had a reason to become a better man…
