Thank you for reviewing! Sorry I have been bad about updating. I hope you all enjoy this chapter! xD
"Dammit they had a freaking vehicle! Knowing Loki the damn thing can probably fly…" Tony couldn't mask the aggravation in his voice.
"We should have expected it. He wouldn't let himself get caught so easily." Natasha grounded out.
"Where does that leave us?" Clint voiced out loud.
"Well clearly Loki has a plan. We need to figure out what that plan is. Natasha you can read lips right?" With an affirmative nod from Tasha Steve continued. "I want you to look over the video that was left behind and figure out what Loki and Peter were saying."
"On it Cap." She left the men to think.
"Tony I want you and Bruce to try and trace Loki to figure out his location. I know you had trouble before, but that girl is still around somewhere."
"Roger that Rogers." With a salute Tony flew off to meet up with Bruce again.
"Clint I know you are a car fanatic so I want you to run a trace on this oil we found and narrow down the possible car/ vehicle that could have been here. Think you can do that?"
"It would be my genuine pleasure."
Having assigned his teammates a job Steve did something that no one, especially Tony, saw coming. He decided to search social media to see if people posted anything about seeing a sighting of Loki. He got the idea from a television show that Tony forced him to watch and what do you know it came in handy after all.
"So did you finally realize no one likes you and decided to move to nowhere." Peter taunted Loki. If Loki really wanted to kill him he would have by now so he didn't see a reason why not to have some fun.
"From the look on your face I am guessing it took you a while to come up with that. It was amusing seeing how you thought you were clever." Loki retorted.
"For your information people find me to be funny so I would hold your tongue." Peter knew it was a poor argument, but he didn't know what else to say.
"You clearly don't know who you are talking to. Many know me by Silver tongue. If I were you I would be biting your tongue." Loki snapped.
"This seems like a very touchy subject for you. Should we have a tea party to discuss your feelings?"
"That's it I'm done with you, again." Loki snapped his fingers and Peter knew he wouldn't have a voice so he didn't bother trying to respond.
Loki would never admit this out loud, but Peter had chops. In a way Peter was like a mini Tony Stark, which the world definitely doesn't need. It all depends on Peter's arrogance level and after watching some clips of Spider-man he does have a snarky side…
"Follow me. Soon my plan to win Thanos back will commence and with you at my front lines I am bound to win." Loki commanded as he exited the vehicle. From the looks of it Loki built a layer underneath a desert, this reminded Peter of a James Bond movie…
Focusing back on Loki's plan, Peter didn't see how Loki could think this plan would make him definitely win. One: He obviously wasn't going to willingly help Loki…
Two: Him and what army?
"Bruce! I don't understand why we can't keep the trail going!" Tony bristled in anger.
"Tony we know how he is. He is obviously just playing with us." Bruce tried to make Tony see reason.
"She can't even track him!" Tony pointed to Elise who was passed out on the couch they had in the lab. It was originally put in there for Tony's sake since he tended to fall asleep in the lab almost every night.
"One, there is no need to put the blame on the girl. Two, we can always check up with Steve and Clint and see if they got anything." Bruce always the calm one.
"I just can't help but feel guilty Bruce. If I wasn't so obsessed with finding out who Spider-man was he could still be web slinging throughout the city. Gosh I really need a drink right now."
"Stop this brooding right now! There is nothing we can do now, and I have been saying Loki was tracking him long before you started looking into him. Now I commend you for holding out this long on the drink, but don't start now." Brue was trying to keep it together for both him and Tony. In reality he wanted to go Hulk and rip apart the city to fond Peter, like Tony he had some guilt about the circumstance of Peter's whereabouts.
"Fine. Let's go find Steve and Clint and see what they got."
"Dammit!" Clint looked up from his laptop at hearing the good Captain curse. Its definitely not good if it made Captain America, the golden boy, curse.
"Trail run cold?"
"I guess I should have expected this. I was able to track him for quite a while, it is surprising how much people post, but then it is as if he just vanished." Steve sighed in frustration.
"Knowing Loki he could have…"
"Why can't the world just be simple like it use to." Steve was reminiscing about his true time period.
"No world with a Stark in it can be simple…"
"You do have a point there Clint." Steve smiled despite their current predicament.
"I've deciphered what Loki and Peter were saying. It's not good…" Natasha said from the back wall. Both Clint and Steve jumped at her comment, neither knowing how long she had actually been there.
"What did the bastard say!" Clint.
"He was trying to convince Peter of two things: Tony and Bruce took advantage of him and that we weren't trying to find him."
"What!?" Steve was beside himself. He knew Loki had a way with words and the facial expressions that Peter made in the video were not a good sign.
"Well shit. I remember him looking confused and lost in the video. I hope that he knows better than what that lying son of a bitch told him." Clint spat.
"My thoughts exactly. We need a way to either find him or just be able to make contact with him. If he knows that we are looking hopefully that will give him some hope. Tony and Bruce are trying their hardest with the help if that girl, but the trail keeps dying for some unknown reason." Natasha voiced.
"We will get him back…"
I hope you guys liked this chapter. I'm sorry I know it is one of my shorter ones.
