Good day everyone, how you all doing? Hope you're doing great, cuz I'm not ×_×.
I'm going through a busy two weeks of exams and projects, and it's killing me.
Anyways, here is the 10th chapter, hope you enjoy it.
As usual sorry for grammatical mistakes.
And don't forget to comment and tell me what do you think so far of the story!
Thanks for keeping up with this and enjoy!
Getting too close to the titan made him forget once again about escaping, he returned to his place with delightness filling him. Loki was excited for the day that he will prove his loyalty to Thanos. For once in his life someone truly saw him, valued him. Falling to the void is probably the best thing that has ever happened to him. Even though he didn't complete a week in here, it's already felt like home.
Loki started immediately thinking what should he do next, he yet haven't shown Thanos the rest of his skills, why did i not do that? wired. Questioning himself that his heart stung badly, a horrible bad feeling invaded him, not knowing what it was, he brushed it away and ignored it. Instead, his mind went to the scepter he saw moments ago, how beautiful it looked, how graceful it was. (earning it is not that hard you know),
"true, it's not, i will only prove myself more to him by showing what i hide, I'll just need to relax and not get nervous". (yeah….that's not the right answer).
"of course it is!",
(not to the point i know),
"what do you mean",
(you're the shining star for now until someone wake up),
"Thor?" he giggled "nonsense, he is of no use to my king",
(how could you be so sure? He have a massive strength),
"he is a stubborn fool, he would rather die than betraying asgard",
(you would rather risk the chance of being the favorite for once in your life just for a mere conclusion?, things don't go as we want when we want to. You are giving Thor everything on a golden plate by your own hands, and that fool will take it without thinking. then what? You'll return to nothing, you'll return to the shadows),
"what are you suggesting? I can't do anything else!",
(like i said before, it's pretty easy, kill Thor while he still a sleep),
"I can't damn it! I can't!" loki sat down and leaned his head on his hands, he was shivering, "i never wanted to kill him",
(are you seriously getting sentimental now? That thing is trying to bring you to asgards justice),
"i…...i don't know, I'm not sure" that crying face of Thor is still hunting him, "i don't think brother will d…",
(brother!? You still think of him as a family?! You are going to get killed the moment he knows your identity, isn't that why you decided to leave this place in the first place?) Loki said nothing, he only remained silent, (...have you forgotten that they were going to use you as a tool between asgard and jotunheim in benefit of Thor?, what's makes you think otherwise now?
Thor will use you as a tool to show Jotunheim who has the upper hand, he will use that to raise his glory by severing your head in front all of asgard and serving it to the jotuns).
The images of him in the arena returned and bringed fear with it. Loki held his head in pain wanting to erase those images until the image of Thor appeared looking down at him in a disgusted way saying, the thing is, you were never my brother. (you are a fool if you believed that Thor would spare you…clinging to him would only lead you to your death. He will never accept you as his brother no matter how much you love him…open your eyes before it's too late and get rid of him).
By every word the sound says, Loki was drifting to believe it, especially after he saw himself in asgards arena. Loki knows, he knows how brutal asgards punishment could be…especially to jotuns, he saw it before. As fear overwhelmed him he started breathing heavily, thinking of the suggestion (end that man's life and you will be free), Looking at his hand, can they do it?, the voice interrupted again, (think about the prize you'll get, an empty throne to sit on) the sound chuckled (of course, after you get rid of that old rug who is setting on it),
"but…..i don't want the thro…",
(you will have a whole kingdom to build, a whole kingdom without suffering, without lies and false promises. A kingdom of your dreams, without rejection, all that you wished for would be there…..even a power that matches the man you always wanted to be equal to…then no one would dare to look down on you….).
"equal" looking down at his hand, a silhouette of the great hammer shaped between his grip,
(you won't be rejected anymore), fear slowly left Loki and got replaced with cheerfulness, he smiled and tightened his grip on the hammer, (just imagine how much praise and cheers you will get, an endless clap of gratefulness and admiration of the king who brought salvation to his people). his surroundings turned to asgards throne while he was standing wearing the uniform of the king, he could hear the people cheering and calling his name, he turned around with a wide smile on his face and brought the hammer up high in a gesture of victory with war cry, his heart was full of happiness and joy.
(all of this will be yours if you slayed the prince),
Loki was smiling and chuckling with himself, then slowly after, he drifted far into the illusion that he didn't know he fell asleep, a sleep that lasted until someone woke.
