Chapter 7: I've got the power
Everything was a blur, my vision, my memory, everything. I blinked a couple of times, a dim light illuminated the room, I was chained by my arms to the ceiling and my ankles to the floor. It was quiet in the room, I tried to pull away but my powers were gone. The door opened and he walked in, "What did you do to my powers? Who are you?"
"I am Loki, of Asgard."
"Asgard?"
"I did nothing to your powers, I just neutralized them."
"Why did you kidnap me? I have no quarrel with you."
"An ant has no quarrel with a boot." He chuckled, "The last time I said that I almost had the world, it was almost mine."
"You're not a friend of my parents, you tried to kill them, you tried to kill everyone with the Tesseract."
"Do you even know the true power of the Tesseract?"
"No. Do you?"
he stood there and didn't say anything, "You are just like your mother." He finally said and walked out.
It was apparent that I wasn't going anywhere anytime soon so I stood there and waited. Time passed, I didn't know how much though, hours, minutes, days? I didn't know and wasn't going to find out, so I sat there and thought of how I could escape. A while later Loki walked in,
"Are you comfortable?" he asked, now that he brought it up, my back and neck started to ache and I was very hungry,
"Very." I said looking up at him,
"You lie." he said walking forward,
"Why do you care?" I asked,
"Lying can get you into trouble." he was holding something in his hand,
"W-what's that?"
he looked down at the object in his hand and chuckled, "Just something of mine that I like to carry around with me." He held the object up.
It was a syringe filled with glowing blue liquid, "You carry a syringe with you?!" I asked,
"Not all the time, just on special occasions."
"You're weird! Listen, I don't know who you are or what I've done to make you not like me but I demand you let me go right now!"
"Ooh you are a scary little girl aren't you."
"I'm not trying to be scary, I just want you to let me go." I sighed,
"You know I can not do that." He stabbed the needle into my arm and injected it into me. The chains fell off of my arms and ankles and I fell to a heap on the floor. Whatever he injected me with was burning through my body, I felt pains all over, like a war was happening inside my body. My body was fighting whatever it was he injected me with, I looked up at the door, it was opened, I had a plan. While he was laughing at his success I took this as an opportunity to shoot a fireball at him and got up and ran out of the room.
I was running down a dimly lit hallway, he was probably right behind me, but I wasn't going to turn around to find out. A blast of blue light zoomed past me, "What the heck! Are you nuts?" He shot another blue light at me, I screamed and ran faster, "Get away from me!" I rounded a corner, "Wait a minute." I turned and shot fire at him, hitting him right in the chest, "Duh." I said to myself running off.
It was apparent that the place was huge, I kept getting lost and I was afraid I was going to run into Loki at any minute, "Wait..." I turned myself invisible, "Wow I'm dumb." I flew around for an hour trying to find an exit. Finally I was tired and frustrated, "Screw it." I flew through a window, breaking it, and squinted in the light. It was gray and cloudy, I was trapped in an abandoned boat launch on the docks.
I flew back into the city, still invisible. Hopefully Tony wouldn't think this was his fault... I hated people who blamed themselves for their own stupidity. I landed on the balcony and turned visible again, I ran to the door and slid it open and ran inside,
"Tori! There you are, I was so worried, what happened?" Tony asked wrapping me in a tight hug,
"I was kidnapped in the middle of the night, had my powers neutralized, chained by my arms and legs and barely escaped with my life!"
"Kidnapped? By whom?" he asked letting me go,
"A guy about this tall," I showed him using my hand, "black hair, green eyes, wore green robes, called himself Loki, injected me with something blue!"
"You were kidnapped by Loki?" A guy with dark hair and glasses asked,
"Uh, yeah, and let me tell you, that guy is nuttier than a squirrel!"
"Tell me about it." The guy with blondish-brown hair.
Tony lifted up my right arm where Loki stabbed me, "Bruce, come look at this." he said, guy with glasses (now I know his name is Bruce) came over and looked at my arm. I decided to take a look too, right where my arm bends at the elbow my skin was a light blue color and my blood was the same color,
"Ah! What's happening?!" I was freaking out,
"It looks like Loki injected you with Tesseract energy in an attempt to turn you evil, but it looks like your body is fighting it off and it all backed up right here."
"That's weird, get it out of me!"
"I don't know if there is any possible way to get it out of you."
"Then do something about it!" I was still freaking out,
"Tony-"
"There are supplies in the bathroom." Tony said, "Calm down Tori." he wrapped me in a hug and held me close. Tony and Pepper were the closest thing I had to a family, they cared for me as if I was theirs. I felt something warm on my arm where Loki stabbed me, I looked up too see Tyler holding it,
"Your arm is really cold."
"Your hand is really warm." I said with a smile.
He smiled and leaned in close to me, "What have we gotten ourselves into?" He whispered, almost inaudibly,
"I don't know, something bad." I whispered back.
Bruce put some ointment stuff on my arm and wrapped it up with a gauze. Everyone was sitting in the living room talking, which helped me memorize everyone's name, I wrapped myself up in a blanket because I was cold. (despite the fact that it was eighty-three outside) I started getting tired and leaned into Tony's side, he put an arm around me. My eyelids started getting heavy and soon I was fast asleep.
I woke up shivering, it was already Monday and I had to endure another day of school in a few hours. There were already three heavy blankets on me but I was still cold. Tyler was in the corner of the room on his laptop, "Tyler, could you get me another blanket?" I asked sitting up,
"There aren't any blankets left." He said looking up at me,
"Ugh, I'm so cold." I curled up under the blankets.
The covers moved and another body was next to me. I moved over and curled up next to him, he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me in close, "Thanks." I muttered,
"Tony doesn't want you going to school today, he says that you've been through a lot this weekend and he wants you to relax."
"Really?"
he nodded. He looked at me and I looked up at him, he was so hot, I couldn't resist. I leaned in and kissed him, he rolled over and pulled me on top of him, putting his hands on my sides. He started reaching his hands up my shirt, then pulled them out and put them on my butt, he pulled away, "Tori, wait, I can't do this, not now."
I sat on him, "What do you mean?"
"I mean you need sleep." He grabbed me by sides and rolled over to his side, pulling me in close, "Goodnight Tori." he said,
"Goodnight." I sighed closing my eyes, I was depressed that I came so close, but yet, wasn't close enough.
