Previously on Snow White and Loki: (SW) "Please, please do not kill me."
(F) "How could I ever hate you? I love you. Oh please, my dark angel, let us go away and ignite passion every waking hour."
She saw another tent next to the one she just existed from, without being seen. She saw through a hole in the tent that inside was Loki, but the Frost Giant version of him.
(L) "Leave me. I am dead."
(SW) "I have loved you as a child, you were my best friend. Remember Loki, remember who you are."
She cried over him as three of her tears fell on his face, neck and hand. Loki was human again.
(L) "I thought I had lost you. Could you ever forgive me?"
(SW) "I have never hated you for it. Loki, we must leave. This is our only chance."
(L) "Finn, he is one hell of a craze bastard. Stay away from him or else-"
(F) Or else what?
On with the show!
Chapter 9
"Well, isn't this romantic? The beauty and the beast. But I'm proud to intercede this lovely reunion." He grabbed Snow White and tossed her to the ground, far enough for Loki's touch. Loki stretched as he tried to grab Finn, who had jumped on Snow White. "We could still run away, and you can still go unharmed. All will be forgiven. What say you?"
She spited in his face, causing him to jerk back and wipe the spit from his face. "I would rather die than run away with you, you bastard!"
Loki had never heard her swear before, and he smiled at the thought of her standing up for herself.
"Very well. You will die, but not before I have you at least once."
"No! Get off me!" Snow White struggled against Finn, as Loki fought hard to reach them. Finn had successfully opened her legs, and at this, a new form of rage had filled Loki up within himself, and he felt from his hands an icy-breeze, and when he looked down, he saw that he was shooting ice and snow out of his hands. He aimed it at the chains and with one great pull on the chains, Loki broke the chains into millions of pieces and lunged at Finn. He took hold of Finn and tossed him across and out of the tent.
The guards saw the tent deflate down and saw Finn standing up woozy. They drew their swords but were ambushed by the dwarves.
Loki stridden out of the tent and grabbed the pole on the way out, breaking it and charging after Finn. Finn pulled out his sword and swung it at him, missing him only by a little bit.
Snow White fought her way out of the mess that was the tent and once she was freed, she saw Loki and Finn fighting, she was worried for Loki, she couldn't lose him again, but he was a warrior, he knows how to fight.
"My lady! Thank goodness you are alright." She turned her head to see Gus and Quert coming from a bush carrying their pick axes and Gus took her hand. "Follow us; we're to lead you to safety." They started toward the forest, when the two guards that blocked Snow White's tent came out twirling their swords with flair and style.
"Oy now, this is just getting ridiculous." Quert muttered and jumped on the one guard, knocking him to the ground. Gus and Snow White were left with the other guard to fight, and Gus went after him, Snow White would have, but when she reached for her knife, it was gone. It had to have been in the tent, buried underneath there somewhere.
She tore through and rummaged through the tent and once she found her knife, she was grabbed from behind and in reaction, she kneed her kidnapper in the groin and she stabbed in the thigh making the man drop to his knees and let her go.
As he groaned he muttered, "Why are you always attacking me?"
She lifted the hood to see it was only Thor. She sighed in agitation and said, "You don't really make yourself known as soon as you grab people!"
"Sorry," He stood up with a limp and took her hand. "Come, let's go."
"We can't just leave them! And Loki-"
"Loki? My brother is here?"
"Right over there with Finn."
Thor looked over at his brother, fighting Finn with ease. "He's doing well, there's no need to worry about him. Come."
She snatched her hand from his hold and stepped back away from him and looked at him with a sudden revulsion. "You are nothing but a coward, running away at the moment when everything goes to hell in a hand basket! You can go, but I going to fight, I am going to stay with the people who have fought hard to try to save me, now it is my turn to repay their kindness and work."
"Snow White."
"Good-bye Thor." She turned and ran over to help Gus, who had just fallen off the guard and as he was about to take a lunge at him, her knife interceded the matter.
Thor watched as a girl without any military techniques and as she had boldly called him a coward and walked away to fight. Was he a coward, did he only want the glory of the victory rather than really earning it? This girl was so strange, to make him think and see himself as he really was. He watched as the others fighting for a single girl, this bright light in this dark world. Then it hit Thor, finally. She is life itself, Muir perhaps was right, she was destined for greatness, and her greatness was to change the hearts of people for the better. Thor saw the light, and went right into the fight.
Finn and Loki were ragging against each other, Loki fighting with all the rage he had built in him the past few days. Finn as down on the ground, wiping away blood from his mouth. "You don't like it when you get thrown down to the ground. Loki grabbed Finn by the collar, "You wanted to see the monster, well then, let me bring him out."
"You still are under my sister's control."
"Fuck your sister and let me relief you of you burden." Loki stabbed him with the pole, straight through Finn, and Ravenna felt her brother's suffering.
"Sister!" he wheezed out.
"Forgive me, my brother."
Finn's face was slowly aging as he gasped out, "I feel…" With his face sunken in and wrinkled, Finn was dead.
Gus, Quert and Snow White were fighting off the two guards that attacked them. Gus and Quert were fighting one together, while Snow White fended for herself with the other. Snow White cried out in pain, making Loki turn his head to the sound, and saw Snow White clutching her arm for a brief moment and saw that she was bleeding and that the cut was deep. Loki tried to get to her, but two more guards came to fight him and he was stuck at where he was at.
Snow White received another cut, less severe, but this made her fall and drop her knife. She felt Gus land right on top of her, just right as the guard stabbed him, the stab that was meant for her. Loki, who saw the whole thing, had only knocked the two guards out and with Snow White's knife had stabbed the guard who stabbed Gus.
Gus crawled off of her and was held in Snow White's arms, brushing away his hair as he whimpered in pain. All the dwarves and Thor hurried over to Gus, as he was slowly fading. Gus had to only look into Snow White's green eyes and all of the sudden, the pain went away in an instant.
"I'll never leave you, princess." She smiled and as if he were to sleep, Gus died, in Snow White's arms. She cried for him, Gus was such a wonderful friend, defended her no matter what, and she would miss him dearly.
"Gus was the best of us all." Said Muir. "He shall be missed, but we shall not let him die in vain. We must continue to help the three back to Asguard, we must do our bit of good."
Beith handed Snow White Gus' sword saying, "This shall be yours now, Gus would have been honored if you were to carry it."
She thanked him in a whisper, trying to cry. Thor picked up Gus like a child, saying "We ought to give a warrior's funeral, he deserves one."
The dwarves went over to the fire pit to fuel it with more wood, while Loki helped Snow White to stand, and wrapped his arms around her shoulders and brought her over to the fire. Once the fire was blazing again, Thor placed Gus into the fire and everyone watched as his body burned. Quert began to sing an old dwarves song, farewell song as Snow White cried as she watched Gus slowly disappear, making her vowing a promise, that she would do to make Gus' sacrifice worthwhile.
They stayed until the fire was gone and then, taking the supplies of the dead, they headed toward the west. Snow White and Loki passed the corpse of Finn, making her shiver from fear, but he wrapped his arms around her and said, "Snow, it's all right. He can't hurt you anymore."
Ravenna cried, she had felt her brother's pain and suffering. She would never know of his plans to betray her, the news would have killed her. She had to release herself from him, or else she would die too, as it was by her, mother's curse that their lives are entwined as one, she had to. She couldn't keep crying for Finn, she had a mission to follow through, and she had ordered her crows into her throne room, and she had allowed them to fly around her. She listened intensely for a noise that no one else could hear.
She was still in contact with Loki, whether he could sense it or not, she could still get inside of his mind and she saw exactly where they was going.
