Elena hums along to her iPod as she creates a small orb of blue energy in her hand. The brighter it gets, the more the lights in her hotel room flicker. Elena concentrates on a glass of soda across the room and knocks it over with her mind. However, before it spills, she stops the liquid mid air.
She smiles calmly as she makes the liquid dance in the air to the music. There's a sharp jolt in the back of her mind and Elena gets wide eyed in horror, letting the liquid spill.
"Chris...if I see you, I'm going to..."
Elena sighs and pulls out her earbuds before taking a deep breath and focusing. To her surprise, she teleports with no issue.
...
Elena calmly walks down the street in a dimension almost identical to her own. She pauses upon seeing a large crowd made up mostly of young women and news teams. Elena swears under her breath and begins to push her way through the crowd. She all but face palms upon seeing over a hundred people watching Loki intently as they sit on their knees.
"Will you fight me? Or will you obey?"
Elena winces as the crowd pledges obedience to Loki. She sighs.
"Those on my side shall continue on in their peaceful existence, for those who rise against their rightful king, they shall face unknown horrors and punishments beyond your imagination."
Elena teleports across the park to stand beside Loki with her hands on her hips.
"Are you going to come quietly or..."
Loki speaks without turning to face Elena. "An entire realm, most of its mortals loyal subjects upon my arrival. I shall enjoy this realm indeed."
"What makes you think I'm going to...?"
"Foolish midgardians. They destroy their own realm and fight among themselves. Would I truly be unwelcome?"
Elena pauses thoughtfully. "Don't kill anyone. You owe me."
Loki turns to face Elena. "Very well."
"I've got to hunt down Chris...this is temporary."
"I am not short of hearing."
"I'm only doing this because you actually know how to run a country. Hell, you were raised for it. Just don't go overboard."
"Do you not have a murderer to find?"
Elena nods before teleporting back to gotham.
...
Elena calmly walks down the run down sidewalk.
"Okay...you can do this. You chopped off his arm, cut out his tongue, and castrated the guy. You don't fear him, he fears you."
She absently rubs her lower stomach for a moment before crossing her arms.
"If I were a sociopath guilty of Elenacide and attempted murder of...well everyone. I hide out in the city of my favorite characters. Where would I live?"
Elena pauses thoughtfully. "Son of a bitch."
She immediately teleports to Wayne Manor.
Upon arrival, the mansion is empty but has very recently been occupied. She walks over to a still warm cup of hot chocolate and sighs.
"He's been watching me. Why am I not surprised."
Elena explores the mansion further and decides to grab a snack from the kitchen. On her way, she trips on a book shoved under the loveseat and all but face plants. Elena gets back up and raises an eyebrow at the book.
"I may not understand that language, but I know evil when I see it. Well, he had to get the magic some way."
Elena closes her eyes and focuses. After a few moments she vanishes.
...
A/N: sorry for the short chapter. A pipe burst at my house and I haven't had much time to write.
Next time...Chris...
