We can literally make an entrance

"From what I've calculated it will take us an hour and twenty minutes to get there." Tony said as we all piled into the quinjet, Clint and Natasha were sitting in the pilots seats but Tony said that the ship was on autopilot. I sat next to Thor and Steve with Jayfeather in my lap and Bowtie sitting in front of me. Tony and Bruce sat across from us. Everybody was in there Avengers costumes, everybody but Bruce and myself.

"You're sure about this?" Fury asked through a walkie talkie.

"I'm not waiting for a written invitation." I said.

"Alright, but do this quickly, maybe you can get back before the Council knows, or before the chitauri attack.

"And if they attack before then?" Steve worried. Tony shrugged,

"We'll have to hope they don't." That was comforting. "And because I plan ahead, scanned the ship and there is a sort of oxygen bubble around the ship so we don't need space suits. We're taking a path that will make it less likely for the chitauri ship to see us until its too late." It was nine already by the time it took us to actually get out into space, Tony had to make some calls to make sure the American government would shoot us out of the sky for being an unregistered ship. Last time Jayfeather was on a quinjet it was to find Bowtie, before he had clung to my head. Now it was a little better because he was a little used to it. I petted Jayfeather to calm him down but I didn't like the feeling either as we entered space.

"Do you think the Council will fire a missile anyway, even with us in the crossfire?" Bruce asked.

"Didn't stop them last time." I muttered.

"Can we not talk about the very possibility of us being blown up by our own?" Steve said while tapping his foot impatiently. We were all nervous, I kept shifting, not finding a comfortable position to sit in.

"So what's the plan exactly?" I looked around, "Go in, grab Loki, get out, then blow it up?" No one offered a counter plan. But it worked, easy. The easy stood for, getting past a whole army, finding a single being in a huge ship, possibly fighting one of the most powerful objects in existence that is the infinity gauntlet. And escape without being blown up, or killed by Thanos or The Other. easy.

"Thor, anything you can tell us how Thanos got the infinity gauntlet? Wasn't it in Odin's treasure value? I remember seeing it when the frost giants broken in during your coronation." Thor was surprised that I knew this but didn't question it.

"Yes, and it is there now, I do not know what you mean by Thanos has it."

"No, my father would know if something was missing."

"How do you know hes telling the truth?" Bruce tried.

"You think my father would lie to me?" Thor was angered,

"Well its not like he was lying to you your whole life now or anything." I mumbled, but Thor wasn't listening.

"Thor, do you think hes just telling you this as so not to raise worry? I mean losing something that powerful is going to rise questions and concern." Bruce pointed out.

"He would tell me." Thor insisted but he sounded less sure.

"Thor, when was the last time you were in the treasure room?" Asked Tony. Thor started to look even more unsure,

"The last time? It was when the frost giants broke in."

"And that was what, a year or so ago?" I tried to think of a date, but time passes differently between sequels and stuff.

But Thor, is it possible that someone could have taken the gauntlet?" Steve pressed.

"Yes." Thor sighed. "Why do you ask though about the infinity gauntlet? what has it got to do with this?"

"Loki admitted that the stone in his sceptre was one of the stones from the gauntlet, the Mind stone."

"That would explain things." Thor murmured. "But why would my father not tell me something as important as this?"

"No one knows and right now its not important." I said frankly, "Tony how long until we get to kick some chitauri ass?" tony looked at a monitor,

"Half hour."

Loki's body was covered hundreds of cuts and bruises, he had several broken bones and was bleeding in several places. He was hardly breath and was curled up to make himself as small of a target as possible.

The Other took his time making his way to Loki's broken body. the Other the kicked Loki harshly and his body skidded across the cell and something else might have cracked in Loki's body. Loki let out a soft whimper, he hadn't enough energy to do anything else.

"Do you want it to stop?" The Other mocked, Loki didn't answer and tried to curl back into himself, wish for all the worlds that the pain would just stop.

"I asked you a question Asgardian." The Other sneered he grabbed Loki's throat and started to squeeze the life out of the fallen god. Loki couldn't fight back as his air was closed off, black spots began to appear, but right before Loki thought that he would get the bliss of unconsciousness. The Other let him go.

Loki raggedly took a breath, he coughed but it was pain filled and on hurt him more. Loki closed his eyes and focused on breathing. He knew he couldn't survive much more of this, but The Other would drag this out as long as he could. It would keep going until Loki was so badly damaged that no magic could save him. Before The Other could land another blow a chitauri entered the cell and spoke something to The Other before leaving again.

"It seems that something has shown up on our monitors, but I'll be back to finish this." Loki didn't hear it, he didn't hear anything, he was just barely there. Barely in the land of the living. The thought of anybody coming for him had faded the moment he had left New York. The thought of someone coming to save him at all, ever, was outlandish, even more now that he was in Thanos's dungen. No one ever came to save him, he always had to save himself. But not this time, no one would help him now and he couldn't even save himself.

Loki's breathing was sluggish. he hadn't even the energy to sit, just stay where he had been left. he knew, very soon,

he would be granted peace.

"Incoming!" Missiles blazed pass our ship, barely missing. They would have hit if not for the expert flying of Clint. We had gotten fairly close to the ship before they noticed us. Natasha started firing back at them.

"Question." I said concerned as I took a good look at the ship. "How are we supposed to get inside?"

"Yeah, didn't think about that." Tony looked through the window and searched for an entrance.

"I see one." Natasha said.

"Where?" Tony didn't see an opening.

"There." She then opened fire on the side of the ship and Clint flew forward, and entered the haul. The ship skidded on its side a little bit before it righted itself and stopped. The back door opened and we all got out. I got my ice sword, Jayfeather and Bowtie changed. Natasha had her guns out and Clint had his bow. Steve had his shield in hand, Thor had Mjolnir, and the iron man suit was all powered up.

We were ready to open a can of whoop ass on the chitauri.

"How do we find Loki?" I asked hurriedly as the sounds of chitauri coming our way.

"Hes probably going to be in the lower part of the ship." Steve said and before anyone could say anything, chitauri flooded the room. everybody opened fire at once. Jayfeather and Bowtie flanked me. I slashed at the chitauri as the came at us. I was faintly aware of the others as they fought. The chitauri hissed and shrieked. All I wanted to do was kill them all. The Hulk roared.

"Guys!" I shouted above the noise. "Get together quick!" No one asked questions they just did as I said, being quick I put up a protecting shield. It threw the chitauri back and gave us a protected circle of ten feet. Everybody was still tense and as ready to fight as the chitauri flung themselves at the shield but to no avail as it held. I concentrated to keep it up.

"Chilly, why are you doing this? We can defeat them!" Thor growled.

"In open space, where we can move yeah, but we're not and we have to find Loki and get out!" I said frowning as the force field wavered.

"Chilly, do you know any spells that can kill them all?" Tony said, I shook my head, and the protection circle got smaller and more and more chitauri threw themselves at us.

"Then why do you have this thing up?!"

"Well I was thinking you could run a scan for Loki before we get lost and die here!" I yelled, the shield got smaller by another inch.

"Right, good idea."

"Chilly, how much longer do you think you could hold this?" Steve looked around at the chitauri.

"A minute." the shield shrunk. "Thirty seconds."

"I've got him." Tony said. "Hes at the bottom of the ship, twenty six levels below us."

"How we gonna get there!" The protection circle got two inches closer. My arms shook slightly.

Thor roared and all of a sudden the ground fell out from beneath me. I landed on my back and had the wind knocked out of me for a few seconds. I recovered and saw Thor had landed on his feet and knew he had smashed through the floor. Looking up I saw the chitauri peer over the edge before jumping down on us. One landed on top of me and my sword had been swept out of my grip, the chitauri gun was ready to fire, but before it could, Jayfeather and Bowtie tackled it and they tore savagely at its throat. I got up and retrieved my sword, then next thing I knew, the floor had fallen out from under me again. I landed and wasted no time getting to my feet, thats when I figured out Thor's plan. And so did the Hulk, because next thing he was smashing the floor too, and with the help of Thor, they broke through the floor fast and we dropped another level.

Level after level we dropped. And fewer and fewer chitauri dropped with us. when we were five floors away everybody was landing on their feet. Drop, drop, drop, drop. I rolled and smiled. One more floor until we reached Loki.

"Stop!" Something hisses terribly. I knew that voice, it belong to The Other. It stepped from the shadows.

"Avengers." It snarled. "Come to save your lost pet?"

"What have you done to him!" I shouted at the creature who laughed.

"When I left him, it wouldn't be long."

"What do you mean?"

"Until he dies foolish mortal."

"Hulk!" I didn't turned around, not daring to take my eyes of this thing.

"SMASH IT!" The Hulk roared and lunged forward, everybody opened fire. I threw ice daggers, Clint shot arrow after arrow. Mini missiles sprang from the iron man suit, Steve threw his shield, Thor threw his hammer, Natasha unleashed a torrent of bullets, and Jayfeather and Bowtie charged forward.

Loki didn't hear the explosions above him. He didn't hear the roars of his brother or the Hulk. He didn't hear the screams of the chitauri as they watch the Avengers and Chilly with her animals strike The Other. He didn't notice the floor outside his cell cave in. Didn't hear Steve give orders to Tony, Bowtie and the Hulk to go after The Other because it had escaped before they could kill it. Didn't know that his brother had ripped the cell door off its hinges. Didn't feel anything as Chilly rolled him over and saw his wounds.

Chilly gasped and he still heard nothing. He was so close to death now that he was oblivious to the world around him.

Chilly saw Loki's glazed eyes and thought he was dead, she checked for a pulse. She thought for a moment that Loki was dead, but then she felt it. The faintest beat of a heart. She placed a hand above Loki's chest, closed her eyes, and healed.

I worked desperately, wanting to heal everything at once but having to do the slow process of having to heal one thing at a time. I got everything that was life threatening, the gashes, broken bones, internal bleeding. And when I was done with that I started to get all the cuts and bruises. And I still wasn't sure I could save him.

Loki gasped and shot up. He looked wildly around, and then he saw us. He looked confused.

"You- you came for me." He looked at all of us as if we were complete strangers.

"Well of course we did! You really thought I'd let them take you away without a fight?" I hugged him.

"Not that this isn't a touching moment," Tony interrupted. "But The Other got away and we need to get out of here now. More chitauri are coming and we need to move."

"How do we get back to the ship?" I looked up at the hole we made on our way down.

"I got legolas." Tony took hold of Clint and they flew back up. The Hulk gently picked up Steve and Natasha before jumping back to the jet. Thor looked at us,

"Thor, you and Loki go, I got a spell so I can get levitate. Jayfeather, you go with them." Jayfeather turned into a house cat and Loki picked him up. Bowtie reverted back too and stood by my side.

"After you Lady Chilly." I rolled my shoulders and using the last of my energy, shot up through the hole and up to the jet. I was worn out from the fighting, the healing, and the magic that I did from getting out of the dungeon. I only just made it to the top and rolled as my magic stopped so I didn't kill myself. I took deep breaths as Steve helped me to my feet. Thor and Loki closely followed. We had done it, we had saved Loki.

"Oh its not over yet." That voice, that horrible voice said. The Other was in front of the quinjet. Thor was helping me get up when two objects appeared in The Others hand. Tony, Steve, the Hulk, Natasha, and Clint had their weapon pointed at The Other. The Other smiled and tossed one of the objects at them before they could fire. The things exploded and the five of them were tossed aside. It looked at me and Thor.

"I'll enjoy watching you two being scrapped off the walls." The Other threw the object. Something ran past me,

Loki.

Loki ran in front of me and Thor. Loki took the object directly in the chest. The object exploded. I screamed. Loki's body flew back. His landed with a crunch. And even before I looked into Loki's dull eyes, even before I smelled the charred, burnt, flesh. I knew.

I knew that Loki Laufeyson,

was dead.

I can hear your cries and I'm smiling. Let the hate rain come down on me.

So review and tell me how you feel, and maybe I'll get the next chapter up soon.

Maybe...
