Riuk

Loki looked at the guards around him and growled in frustration. Dammit, I can't fight them with Joca here…no matter what, I won't let them touch her, he thought to himself. They stood there, waiting for something to happen when a huge boom sounded somewhere close by. What the hell? Loki thought. Suddenly a huge monster dropped down from a nearby building and looked down at him. It opened its maw and roared the most frightening roar Loki had ever heard. The creature stopped roaring and started to change, getting smaller and smaller until he was about a foot taller than Loki. "Hello Loki, I am Riuk," the creature before him said, "Now, as fun as this may be, you need to come with me." Loki exchanged a glance with Tarko. "And if I refuse?" he asked. Riuk chuckled and pulled out a sword, chuckling, "I was hoping you would say that," he said as he suddenly lunged at Loki. Loki barely dodged the attack, shocked by his speed. He turned and tossed Joca to Tarko and pulled out his swords, putting them in the backhanded position just in time to block another lunge from Riuk. Loki quickly recovered and came at Riuk, clashing blades with him as they each fought to control the fight. Loki blocked a death blow from Riuk and struck out with his own, which was also easily blocked. Riuk stumbled and Loki moved in for the kill only for his sword to be grabbed by Riuk and ripped out of his hand. Still holding onto Loki's arm, Riuk looked at Loki and smiled evilly. Too late did Loki and Tarko realize his intentions. All Loki could do was cringe as Riuk brought his sword down upon Loki's arm, slicing it neatly off. Loki sank to his knees, clutching the stump of a shoulder where his arm had been not a moment before, blood gushing from the wound and through his fingers. Loki could not even scream in pain, he was so shocked that his skills had not been enough to defeat Riuk that he felt no pain. Loki remained still on his knees while Riuk, who at this time had a smirk of satisfaction on his face, moved forward with a large tranquilizer. Just as he was about to inject it in, a flash of orange blurred across Loki's vision and there was a sickening crunch of bone. Loki looked up just in time to see Tarko's fist connect with Riuk's jaw and send him flying. Tarko then picked up Loki and Joca and jumped onto the rooftops and fled. The last thing Loki remembered seeing was Joca's unconscious face, buildings zooming by in the background as darkness covered his vision…
