TONY POV

The three of us stand in a little circle, looking at the destruction around us. This never would have happened if the damn cape wearing demigod never got involved in it! I mean seriously, we had everything under control with Loki, and then here he comes letting the bad guy go! this guy deserves to get his little ass kicked...
A scream breaks through the air.

Anna.

Our heads snap in the direction of the scream, and before either of them can even say anything my suit is up and flying to look for her. The cliff where Loki was before is now empty, him not in sight. Anna must have come down to see if she could resolve this and make peace, Phil did mention a few times about how his daughter is more quite and peaceful.

I come up and find Loki holding an unconscious Anna a little ways off. She has tear streaks on her face, her expression consorting in pain. I immediately fly down and blast Loki with my repulser, making him fly back away from her. I land beside Anna and examine her quickly, she's not injured, but she looks like she's been through hell.

When Loki stands back up, I ready myself to shoot him again. Capsicle stands in front of me, along with the God of Screwing Things Up.

"Stark, we don't need to start another fight." I don't need to start another fight, but I'm going to anyways!

"Loki-"

"It doesn't matter what Loki did, we just need to get them both back to the ship and get her to a hospital." Growling at him, I turn and head in the direction where Natasha landed the ship. Capsicle is carrying Anna in his arms, and Thor has a hold on Loki. When we get back onto the ship, Natasha can't stop looking between Thor, Loki, and Anna.

She starts up the ship again and we start to head back, my eyes burning holes in the back of Loki's head the entire way. Finally, Loki turns to meet my gaze with a glare that trifles mine. We stare at each other until Thor steps into my line of vision, shaking his head at me as if to say that it would be bad idea to continue that.
Whatever.

Natasha lands the ship on the Helicarrier about an hour later, agents rushing towards us. Loki is immediately put into handcuffs, but I notice when they start to take him away how smug he looks. I would hate to admit it, but Capsicle might have been right about bringing Loki back here, no one should look that way when they are defeated.

Coulson goes straight towards Loki, the agents letting him through without hesitation,

And punches Loki across the face.

LOKI POV

I would be wrong to say that I did not deserve that.

The hit only stung a little, something I did not expect from an aging man. He glares at me, then walks behind me back to where my brother and his new 'team' are standing. I glance back to see him head over to Anna, taking her face in his hands gently and looking at her with worry. I frown, staring at him as he does this.

Why would this man care for Anna?

Once they are out of sight, I stare straight forward with determination. I understand more so now than I had before that she has been hurt by a man before, a man named Adam. The men enclosed around me stare straight forward, doing the same as me while I am already thinking of a plan.

Entering Anna's mind will be nothing but simple, Mortals are not capable of chasing me out of their puny minds. Once in her mind, I will have to try and find her memory of whoever that man was, and what he had done to my Princess. Then, once I have his identity, it will not be that hard for me to give the orders to find him and have them bring him back to me. Once they do this, I will have him executed immediately for what he had done to her.

But first, I will have to complete this plan.

They walks me past several corridors and doors, none of them saying anything, thankfully. These Mortals are about as idiotic as my brother is when he rushes into battle. Of course, there is that soldier that I have to concern myself with, he almost uncovered my plan when I gave up the fight so easy. That was much too close for my liking.

We walk by a room made of glass, and inside of it is the man I recognize as the beast himself. When he looks in my direction, I offer him a smirk before turning my head back straight. In the corner of my eye, I can see him rub his eyes, looking as though he wants to forget that ever happened. How unintelligent of him.
Finally, they walk me into my glass prison, making me stand inside. When they shut the doors, the leader of this place comes forward.

"Incase you haven't figured it out-" He points to me. "Ant." Then he points to the controls. "Boot."

"Quite impressive, not build I think for me."

"Build for something stronger than you." I smirk, knowing that those 'Avengers' must be watching us right now. The second phase of the plan is now almost complete.

"Oh, I heard. A mindless beast, still makes play he's a man." The man smiles at me.

ANNA POV

The room is dark, just like how I remembered it from a few years ago. I am running down a dark hallway, the candy-striper uniform covered in large amounts of blood. Tears continue to run down my face as I hear his footsteps trailing after me. He continues to get closer, tormenting me, torturing me with his presence.
I am pinned to the wall within the next few moments, his breath tickling my face. The tears continue to run, my breaths becoming rough and jagged the closer he gets.

Then he's gone.

I am now in a meadow covered with various colors and species of flowers. My outfit changed to a beautiful sea foam green dress, reaching all the way down to my feet. The tear had dried from my face, and my breathing became normal once again.

"So, that is what happened to you." The voice surprises me, making me jump in the air and look back to see Loki. He has a smug smile on his face, and I already know what he did before I even said it.

"You invaded my mind!"

"It was necessary."

"How?!"

"I wish to know, and punish, all those who damage what is mine. I do know for a fact that you would never tell me Princess, so I decided to find out for myself." He sits on the ground beside me, bringing back memories of when I was younger, when we used to play together..

"I told you not to call me that."

"And I told you not to give me orders. Look where we are now." I growl, laying on my side facing away from him. He sighs, and I can hear him moving from behind me. I still don't face him, he's an ass and I wish he would just leave me and my mind alone.

"I can hear what you think about me since I am in your mind, you do know that yes?" I frown.

"That's cheating."

"That's smart."

That's when I woke up, surrounded by doctors and my dad, Phil.

It didn't surprise me when I found Phil waiting right beside my bed for me to wake up. What did surprise me was to find Tony Stark waiting on the other side of my bed waiting for me to wake up. But I did not really get the chance to ask him why he was there because dad had started asking me multiple questions: What I was thinking, why I did something so stupid, what Loki did to me, and whether or not he has to kill someone today. My answers were: I was thinking I wanted to help, which is the same reason I used for the second question. For the third I told him nothing, I just passed out from seeing him, which was a lie. For the last question, I simply said maybe.

Now the three of us are walking down the SHIELD hallways, me trailing behind dad and Tony. Tony continues to glance back at me every few seconds, and dad will whisper things into his ear. For some reason, I'm guessing whatever they are talking about has to do with me. A SHIELD Agent stops me before we enter the 'Meeting Room'.

"You are not authorized to enter this area." He says, standing in front of me with crossed arms. Dad also stands in front of me, facing the agent with a hard expression on his face.

"She is allowed, and don't even bother arguing since you are a junior agent and I'm a senior." He snaps, looking much darker than I have ever seen him before. Tony smirks at the agent, and I smile apologetically. It's really not my fault that my dad won't let me wander around the ship by myself, not after what just happened...

The agent's face pales as he steps out of the way, letting us through. Dad nods to him, whispering something I couldn't hear into his ear and continuing inside the main part of the ship. As I pass by him, I can't help but notice the glare he flashes my way.

Fantastic, made another enemy.

When we walk inside I can hear Tony and my dad talking about something, but I ignore it. Not to far away is Thor, who my dad told me about last year after his mission to Mexico. Even though he isn't supposed to tell me anything about missions, he told me that the one about Thor is one I should remember for the future.
Because now we know aliens exist.

I stand in the corner of the room quietly, listening to Tony talk about something... Something that involves science, I don't really know what it is. Another man starts to talk with him, he has curly dark hair and brown eyes. I look at him for a little bit before recognizing him as Bruce Banner, a physicist. Steve looks just as confused as I do about the situation, and when our gazes lock he smiles at me. It makes my heart skip a beat, but... But not in the way it should.

Thor comes up beside me, not really listening to what the two scientists have to say. His eyes have been following me ever since I entered the room, not leaving me even once. I notice how familiar he looks to me when his face should be foreign to my mind. He stands on the left side of my chair, leaning down so we can talk without catching anyone's attention.

"You do not remember Loki?" He asks, frowning at me.

"I didn't at first... But now I do." I look at him. "How do you know about that?" He does not answer me, just nodding a few times before going back to stand where he was before. Steve stares at us throughout the entire conversation. Well, if you could even call that a conversation, more like a few words of exchange.

Tony and Bruce left not to long after.

Steve went off somewhere else, and I assume that Natasha is with them. Heaving a heavy sigh I stand up from the chair I am in and start to walk out. Right before I reach the door, Thor reaches out and grabs my arm.

"We must speak privately." I'm sure he doesn't have any idea that nothing on this ship stays private, but before I can explain that he starts dragging me off to another part of the ship.

Strange thing about me, I have never really trusted people since after Loki left me. I thought that all people were going to be exactly like him, and I have always been afraid of losing them. After what had happened with Adam too... I just won't ever be able to live a normal life, not like the one my dad has been trying to build for me.

We go into a random closet in the kitchen, him locking the door.

"You must know something of Loki, he does not wish to harm you." I scoff at him.

"Then why did he hit me? Kidnap me?" I hiss, turning to unlock the door and leave. I don't want to talk about Loki, I don't want to be near Loki, I don't want anything to do with Loki!

"Because he already lost you once." Thor blocks my only way out of the closet, standing with his arms crossed. My eyes go up to his, challenging him, telling him that he really should not be doing this. My dad has a lot of influence in this organization, and I am sue he would not be happy to learn about anything that is going on right now.

Especially how Loki used to be my best friend.

"He left me."

"He had no choice, our father made me take him home once his time was up Anna." I glare at him when he says my name, but soften up on the inside about Loki. He hadn't left me before, he was forced to leave me...

"What time was up?"

"His punishment, to live amongst the mortals on Midgard for a month. I am sorry..." His head falls, staring at the ground in shame. "I told father that Loki would not take leaving you so lightly, but he did not care for my words." My mouth opens to say something back to him, but nothing comes out.

He steps out of the way, letting me walk out of the closet and into the normal kitchen. Nobody is really in the cafeteria, only a few agents. None of them seem to notice me as I walk by, slowly, like ghost against the wall.

He didn't want to leave me.
