A/N: Has anyone noticed that especially in these last 3-4 chapters I've made it a point that Loki doesn't use acronyms? Norse gods don't seem to have a grip on acronyms.

Also who else hates that Marvels Phase 2 made so many fanfics totally uncanon. I mean THEY DESTROYED SHIELD! How could they even do that! THEY REMOVED TONY'S ARC REACTOR! Why would they even? CLINT WASN'T WITH NATASHA IN CAtWS! Where was he? And even though I don't want Loki to die they didn't make any character development cuz the whole thing was a trick. If anything he's even crazier. And what the heck happened to Odin? Also why is Hiemdallr not seeing any of this? SERIOUSLY HE'S FRICKING ALL-SEEING! Why doesn't he see Loki and Odin fighting to the death (Possibly who the heck knows what happened!)

Tony woke up with a start. He looked around to find he was in quite a dark room, he couldn't even see the walls but he could tell it was large by the slight echo that came from his breathing he could also see that the room was most likely some sort of abandoned warehouse (How cliché) that hadn't been cleaned or even checked in decades. The room was overflowing with cylinder metal barrels marked with toxic waste signs a few of them looked full some were even overflowing causing the ground around it to sizzle and melt. Tony cringed in disgust as the smell reached his noise. Loki spoke up "Yes the smell is less than ideal."

Tony jumped in shock and realised he was bound to a chair his arms tied sturdily behind him making him unable to move and causing a dull ache to pulse through is shoulders. Loki stood across from him staring silently. "Loki, what's the big idea?!" Tony tried to act as nonchalant as he could but he was freaking out, but then again who wouldn't be when a crazy Norse god of mischief had you tied up in an unknown location?

"Just be glad you're not gagged, or dead."

"Oh yeah, thanks Loks." Tony rolled his eyes sarcasm oozing from his lips

Loki pursed his lips but didn't say anything knowing it would cause the entire conversation to go off course "Before The Avengers interrupted us," Loki started in his crisp vaguely British accent, "we were having a conversation and it has raised a very serious question: Who are you loyal to?"

Tony stared at him for a second trying to buy himself some time by acting concussed, how could he answer? Surely if he said Loki he'd know it was a lie, but what else could he say? "You. I'm loyal to you."

Loki frowned "This is most odd."

"What is?"

"I cannot tell if you are lying or not."

"Reindeer Games how can you not tell? Either I'm lying or I'm not, just pick one."

"Oh, I see what is happening.

"yo-you do?" How can Loki know what's happening when Tony wasn't even sure what was happening

"This is rich. This is rich! You are getting confused. You do not know who you are loyal to anymore."

Tony stared at him for a moment "Is this some sort of trick to get me to admit that I'm secretly loyal to SHIELD or something?"

"Anthony, that orphanage was empty, I sensed it. What are the odds that the biggest orphanage in America was empty. Unless someone told them what was happening."

"You think I told them?" Stark tried to act as offended as he possibly could.

"Well you are the one who said to blow up that orphanage instead of the White House."

"Well excuse me for trying to make you seem more evil and less like some cartoon villain from some newspaper comic strip! Honestly if you wanted to kill the President you should have gone to Hydra!"

"Why would I go to an eight headed beast? It is of Greek origin, Norse gods such as I am not supposed to mix with the Olympian's creations."

"...Not what I meant...wait. Are you telling me Greek gods are real?"

Loki looked to the ceiling as he thought, his mind wondering "And Roman gods and Egyptian gods and Chinese gods, the list is endless." His head snapped back to Tony "Do not try to distract me with petty small talk! I am not one of those dull mortals you spent your time with, I am the god of trickery."

"I wasn't trying to distract you." Tony shrugged 'helplessly' and gave a lopsided smirk "S'not my fault if you idle mind wandered." Tony was shocked when Loki delivered a stinging slap to his right cheek causing blood to rush to his face. He asked in utter disbelief "Did you just slap me?!"

"I have wanted to do that from the moment we met in Germany." Loki paced gracefully from left to right in front of Tony "Tell me Anthony, are you a hero?"

'Might as well the jigs up' Tony thought "Yes, yes I am."

Loki's lips curled upwards in appeasement, not quite a smile "Now you do not truly believe that."

"Well I don't need to tell you what I truly believe!"

"Stark, I know you know that I know that you are not loyal to me and that you never were. So now we are enemies, which means I do not have to hold back when it comes to you. I can do whatever I want."

"Don't you do that anyway?" Loki slapped him again in the face this time swinging his hand back again and backhanding him

"I would watch your tone unless you want to get a beating."

"Like your delicate little lady fingers would do much damage!" Loki's eyes flared and he punched Tony hard in the nose, Tony yelped as he heard his nose crack and immense pain seared throughout his face radiating from the broken fixture in the centre. Tony involuntarily tried to cradle his face with his hands but he was still tied up and ending up jerking weirdly "YOU JUST BROKE MY NOSE!"

"Well it seems my delicate little lady fingers can do a lot of damage." Loki wiped away the tiny drop of blood that had landed on his hand, the red stood out on his pale complexion. "mmmm, a little birdie told me that you have a phobia of water."

"It's not really a phobia, more of a mild discomfort really."

"So you would not mind if I dunk your head in a bucket of water?" Loki waved his hand a pail of water appeared in-between them.

Tony stared into the bucket his eyes wide, he swallowed heavily. Letting out a shaky high pitched laugh he scoff nervously "Why would I, it's like a pool... but for your head." His heart started beating faster in his chest.

Oh God. He was back in Afghanistan being water boarded by the ten rings.

Welcome Tony Stark, the most famous mass murderer in the history of America

He wants you to build a missile

I refuse

His breath hitched in his throat as he was pulled into the flash back his head repeatedly being plunged into the water and yanked out, his car battery electrifying him making the pain and the terror ten times worse.

Don't waste your life

SNAP OUT OF IT!

His eyes came back into focus and he saw Loki smirking at him, how long had he been out? Had he even been out or had he simply been staring into space. He couldn't even remember how many times Pepper or JARVIS or one of the bots and more recently Bruce, Natasha or Clint have pulled him out of a flashback or woken him from a nightmare. Everyone says he should get help or talk to one of them but he can't. The moment he goes to a shrink the board and the government will say he can't be In charge of the company/Iron Man any more. If he tells his friends, they'll think he's weak and they'll know just how messed up in the head he really is. So he kept it inside and suffered silently.

He stared back at Loki, daring him to act but hoping, no praying he wouldn't. And then he did.

Loki grabbed his head and force his face into the bucket causing the chair to tip forward, he fell painfully on his knees and opened his mouth to yell. He never got the chance because as soon as his mouth was open his head was underwater and the clear liquid started pouring down his throat. He couldn't breathe. He couldn't breathe. Oh God he couldn't breathe.

I can't do this again, I can't

He felt a sting in his eyes that meant he was about to cry, he didn't want to cry in front of Loki but at least the water would disguise his tears. He started to trash desperately needing oxygen and Loki pulled him out bending his back uncomfortably seeing as he was still strapped to the chair. He gasped and breathed in huge gulps of air trying to fill his longs with oxygen while also trying to hack up any water he had just swallowed. This odd combination of breathing resulted in him getting light headed and woozy, add that to the already traumatic experience and the flashback and you get a sobbing bundle of Stark.

The god of Chaos lifted his head up by his hair and force to sobbing Iron Man to look him in the eye "Do you see the weak creature you've been reduced to by water? Water, the purest and most necessary thing needed to live."

"News flash Loki," He hacked up a quarter of a litre, almost losing his sentence in his coughing fit "Oxygen is the most necessary thing needed to live."

"You just do not learn do you?" Loki turned the chair around so Tony's hands were being crushed by the chair and his own body weight behind his back, his face was looking upwards at the high ceiling "Maybe it is about time I teach you." He place a cloth over Tony's face and magicked up a jug of water (It's magic so it never runs out) He slowly poured the water over his covered face and watched as Tony realised what was happening.

"Loki! Wait! We can talk about this-(gasp) LOKI!" As the cloth got wet it began to cling to Stark's face causing it to block his nostrils and his mouth while simultaneously pouring water into said face holes. Tony yelled and tried to get away but Loki was thorough, short of Loki untying him there was no way Tony was getting out of his bonds.

Tony sobbed and screamed whether he was submerged or not "Please just stop! Please I'm begging you please-" and he was choking again, drowning on dry land. He jerked and thrashed as best as he could while tied to a chair. He screamed into the cloth but no one besides a manic silver-tongue could hear him. "What do you want! I'll give you anything just stop please! Oh God please just stop! I'm begging you." He screamed again and kicked his legs but Loki dodged them easily "Oh God please..." He sobbed tears pouring from his eyes. The water found its way down his wind pipe, he tried to cough it back up but ended up choking. He could do nothing except make sure he didn't die as Loki slowly suffocated him. All he could do was let Loki drown him on dry land.

A/N: So Avengers POV is next chapter. We need to see what's going on with them and Fury maybe even get a quick cameo fro Pepper. I don't know I write chapters as I go.
