And here you have the next chapter, and I am really happy with this one, so I hope you like it too! I thought some things needed to happen, so I let them happen. Haha and I am sorry if things feel chaotic at the end, I kind of wanted it to have that feeling.
Then let's see what more I have to say. I see Narfi and Váli to be around 4 in human years. But since they also are gods and thy become much, much older I would say that they are around 100 years. So that's why they can talk so well and stuff. But see them as kids, and they act like it. They can just talk very well.
Then Fury, Hill and Coulson. I know that they are way, way out of characters, but I wanted them to be like this in the story. And again to anyone who really like them and I am writing them so out of character and like this. Hope your survive.
Once again, thank you to the new followers, and the old ones ofc! And for the reviews!
So it should be a very long chapter, so I hope you enjoy it.
"Lady Cara, the twins are awake, and it seems like they are planning on waking Loki with a surprise," Jarvis said and Cara, who just had taken a shower and was on her way to the closet looked up.
"Good morning Jarvis, and thank you for telling me this," she said, looking at her clothes. "Did they say what kind of surprise?"
"From what I could hear it sounded like they wanted to scare him somehow," Cara nodded while she put on a a pair of black trousers and a green tank top.
"Then I think it's best if I stop them," she said with a smile and left her room.
When Cara got closer to Loki's room she saw the twins coming out from their room, and she smiled.
"Good morning Narfi and Váli," she said in a friendly voice, and the twins jumped in surprise, looking at her.
"Good morning Cara," Narfi answered.
"Have you slept well?" she asked and the twins nodded and she smiled. "So what if we make your father some breakfast and surprise him with that instead of trying to scare him?"
Cara said that, instead of telling the twins that they would most likely scare Loki, who knew what would happen then? If they woke him up, he may not even know what he was doing at first, and Cara would rather not deal with that situation. And she didn't want the twins to see Loki like that, if they would be unharmed. She wouldn't tell them anything about Loki's situation, she would let him tell them, when he was ready.
"How did you know?" Narfi asked and Cara laughed.
"I have supreme powers that let me know everything," the twins looked very doubtful at her. "That or I had some help from Jarvis."
"Nice to get some acknowledge," Jarvis said.
"I give credit when credit is due," Cara told him before looking at the twins again. "So breakfast?"
The twins did go with her to the kitchen, and she smiled, glad that she could get them to drop their plan on scaring Loki.
"So what do you wish to make?" she asked.
"Rice porridge," Narfi said and Cara nodded.
"I think I have a recipe for it here somewhere," she made a book appear that she started to look in. "Aha, here we have it."
"Can I see?" Narfi asked and Cara showed them the book and Narfi read it and then nodded.
"So is it acceptable?"
"It is," Narfi said and Cara smiled.
"Is there something else you want to make?"
"Bread," Váli said in a very low voice.
"Then let's make some bread too," Cara said and placed all the ingredients on the countertop. "Then let's get started."
"Can we help?" Narfi asked.
"I thought that was the point of having you here," she said with a smile and the twins smiled too.
Cara could see Loki's smile in theirs, and she was still surprised that he had children, or that he hadn't said anything about them the last time. But to be fair, she hadn't said anything about her daughter either. She saw that the twins looked at her, waiting for her to say something, and it reminded her of how her daughter used to do the same. Giving her all her attention, always wanting to learn more, be near her and make her smile. Cara closed her eyes for a second, trying to forget about those memories.
"Cara?" Narfi said and she looked at him.
"Yeah?"
"Are you alright? You seemed to be faraway in thoughts?" he asked and she smiled.
"Sorry about that. And don't you worry, I am quite fine. So let's get started."
Having the twins in the kitchen was a challenge, they wanted to help, but their knowledge was very limited. They didn't know how to make food, or use anything in the kitchen and Cara had to watch over them, to be sure that they didn't get hurt, or burned down the kitchen. But they did have fun and the laughed, which made Cara smile too. The twins seemed to be really happy and not affected by what seemed to have happened to them in the circus. But Cara knew that it could all just be a façade, but she hoped that they weren't to damaged, only time could tell.
"Are we done now?" Narfi asked.
"We just need to set the table. The others will be here soon," she said and walked over to the table with the twins next to here.
"Is that why we made so much food? Because I don't think father will eat all this," Narfi said and Cara nodded.
"You are correct, all this isn't just to Loki," she answered and turned around, to walk back to the kitchen when Loki stood there and she jumped sometimes forgetting how silently he could move, and when she jumped Loki did too. "Sorry you scared me Loki."
Loki looked down, ashamed.
"Don't you worry, you didn't do anything wrong. I just wasn't prepared for you to stand there," she said with a smile and the twins; who now had placed all the glasses, turned around too.
"Father," they said and ran over to him. Loki kneeled and gave them a hug when they got closer.
"Good morning," Loki said and then stood up.
"We made you some breakfast," Váli said and took Loki's hand and walked towards the kitchen.
"Cara helped us," Narfi said, when Loki gave them a wondering look. Loki turned towards her and nodded.
"Thank you," he said and Cara only smiled at him. There was no reason for him to thank her.
"Can we eat now?" Váli asked and looked at Loki.
"If you want to eat in your room, I can put it on a tray," Cara said and Loki shook his head and walked over to the table with the twins and started to eat, and she soon joined them.
As the time went by, some of the others joined as well. Steve got back from his run and sat down, and soon after that Natasha walked out of the elevator with a very sleeping Clint, who smiled when he saw the food.
"You are spoiling him," Natasha said when she sat down.
"Can't let him be without food and only give you guys," Cara said with a smile. "But I didn't do it all by myself today, Narfi and Váli helped me."
"So you helped Cara in the kitchen. Was it fun?" Steve asked and the twins nodded.
"Yes," Narfi said and Cara could tell that they was a bit shy around the others.
"Someone is shy," Clint stated and smiled, making the twins blush.
"Because pointing it out helps," Natasha said to him. Loki gave his sons a small smile to tell them that it was okay, and the twins nodded back. Cara knew that they would become less shy when they felt at home, or if they spent some time with the others.
"Coffee?" Tony said when he walked out from the elevator, with Pepper next to him.
"On the table," Cara pointed and Tony just walked over to the pot and poured himself a cup.
"I am just saying good morning, before I am off," Pepper said and Cara stood up.
"Here is your coffee, some fruit and a sandwich for breakfast, and your lunch," she told Pepper who smiled.
"You didn't need to."
"I know that I didn't need to. But I know that you need to eat too."
"Thank you," Pepper said and then kissed Tony goodbye before leaving.
"So how did it go with the children yesterday?" Cara asked and looked at the others.
"Charles welcomed them. He was happy to see them, and I am sure that they will feel at home," Tony said.
"Will they be friendly to them?" Narfi asked in a low voice.
"They will. You do not need to worry about that. They will have a lovely home, lovely friends and if they want, some adventures," Tony said and the twins nodded but didn't ask anything else.
"So how many pranks are you boys going to do?" Tony asked.
"Tony," Steve said, feeling like Tony already was blaming the twins.
"Look at them, they are Loki's sons, you can practically read mischief on their foreheads," Tony said and smiled, the twins looked at him before they looked at each other and smiled.
"Guess that means a lot," Tony laughed.
After breakfast Loki took his children back to their room, to help them settle in. Cara went back to the kitchen with Natasha, to put the rest of the food in the fridge so Thor, Jane and Bruce could eat when they felt like it. Tony and Clint decided to watch a movie, while Steve said he would do some training.
"Loki seem to be a good father," Natasha said when they joined the guys in front of the TV.
"He really does. A bit overprotective maybe, but after everything, I would be too," Tony told them.
"It can't really grasp that he has kids. That means that he had a relationship with someone, and they had sex, and then nine months later a kid was born," Clint said.
"Thank you for telling us how kids are made," Tony said sarcastic.
"I just mean, I have a hard time seeing him do that. Even if he had lived here for some time now, and we have seen another side of him, I still have a hard time not see him as a person who want to take over earth. I mean having kids? Why on earth did he get kids? And who was crazy enough to get kids with him? I mean for that they need to have sex with him, and…" Clint stopped when he saw Cara's look. "What?"
"You do know that I used to date him right? And that means we had sex," Cara said.
"Why? Sure he doesn't look half bad…" Clint said when Tony interrupted him.
"Not half bad? Have you seen the guy? I am not into guys, but I think I would do the exception for him," Tony said. "He does look perfect and…"
"Anyway," Clint stopped Tony. "He still has the evil look about him, and he is arrogant, and he is the God of lies… Why did you start dating him?"
Cara laughed.
"Because I got to know the person behind the evil looks, the arrogance and the lies. And like Tony said he does looks good, really good," she joked and Clint just looked at her.
"But getting kids with him?" Clint said and Cara shrugged her shoulders.
"That I can't say anything about. We never talked about children, and I did not want another child. But I can see why the women before me wanted to have children with him, at least if they had something like we did," Cara told him.
"…" Clint started but Tony cut him off again.
"Enough with your boring questions Clint, I want to know about the sex? How was it?" Tony said.
"Tony," Natasha said and Cara just shook his head at Tony.
"I will not give you any details, because you have no right to know that. But what I can tell you is that you learn a few things if you are alive for a few hundreds year's," Cara said and Tony was about to say something when his phone rung.
"I will get the details," Tony said and then looked at the phone and stopped smiling. "What do you want Fury?"
Tony walked away but the others could still hear how he got upset over something and when he got back he did not look happy.
"Fury is on his way, he want to know more about the children."
Cara had left the others to go and tell Loki. She founded him in the twins room, sitting at the table with a puzzle. The boys were sitting on each side of Loki, trying to solve it and Loki didn't seem to mind that they sat so close, and Cara was glad that he could have them near without feeling uncomfortable. She knew that she had have a hard time having Minna close after everything, and she had to work really hard to be able, mostly for Minna's sake.
"Hi," Cara said and entered and they looked at her.
"Hi Cara," Narfi said and she walked closer. "We are solving a puzzle!"
"I can see that, and it looks like it's going really well," she looked down at what looked to be a forest with different creatures, or on its way to be.
"Do you want to join us?" Váli asked in a shy voice.
"I would have loved too, and if you will allow me I will join the next time, but right now I need to talk to Loki," she said and smiled at him. Loki didn't smile back; he could tell that something was wrong, as he stood up and walked over to her.
"I just wanted to tell you that Fury is on his way here," she started and she could see how Loki got really frighten at once. "He wants to know more about the children Tony and the others left at X-mansion yesterday."
At once Loki looked at his sons who was really concentrated, trying to solve the puzzle.
"Don't worry, I will not tell him about them. But I wanted to warn you so you know. And if Fury does finds out about them, we can tell them that they are mine, if you are alright with it?" She didn't want Loki to feel like she was doing something he wasn't okay with. It was his children and she would let him decide what to do. Loki thought about it and nodded.
"Okay," Cara said with a smile. "You should be fine if you stay here."
Once again Loki nodded and looked at his kids, wanting them to be safe.
"Do you want me to tell them anything, or do you want to do it yourself?"
"I do it," he said and she nodded.
"Just call for me if there is anything," she left the room, she wanted to meet Fury and to be sure that everything was alright.
When Cara walked back to the common room she could hear people talking, and it sounded like they were upset. She heard Tony arguing with someone, and she guessed it was Fury since she didn't know that voice. As she walked into the room, she saw that Jane and Thor had joined the others, and that there was a black man with an eyepatch talking to Tony. She also saw that he had company by a woman with brown hair and a man in a suite.
"Where did the children come from Tony?" Fury asked.
"That's not important," Tony said. "Why do you even care? They aren't your responsibility or your problem."
"They become my problem when you brought them to USA and New York! It was twenty mutant kids, and even if Charles will keep an eye on them, who knows what they will do when they turn eighteen," Fury said. "So where did they come from? Can we return them?"
"You can't return them," Steve said
"And why is that Rogers?" Fury asked.
"There is nothing for them there."
"Where did you get them from? Tony I swear if you did something illegal that will get you guys and USA in trouble I will…" Fury started.
"You think that something involving twenty mutant kids would be legal?" Tony said sarcastically.
"He has a point sir," the other man said.
"Doesn't matter that he has a point Coulson. I need to know where they come from, and how he founded them?" Fury said.
"They saved them, isn't that all you need to know," Cara suddenly said when she got back from getting a cup of tea.
"And who the hell are you?" Fury said.
"Cara" she said in the same voice she always did when someone asked. Fury gave her a look, but she just smiled.
"Saved them from?"
"Not a nice place. Isn't that enough for you? And if you are worried about getting into trouble with someone, I can almost promise you that the people that had enslaved the children will not say anything about it," she said and sipped on her tea.
"And how would you know?" the woman asked.
"Do you really need to ask that?" Cara said and was just about to say something more when she heard footsteps.
"Mother," Narfi and Váli called and Cara's heart stopped for a second, she had said that they could pretend that the children was hers, but she didn't think they would call her mother. Hel had done the same, but she had left right after, so she didn't need to deal with it. Here she had, so she turned around to face the twins, ignoring the pain she felt in her heart.
"Here," she said and they ran to her.
"We did finish the puzzle, almost all by ourselves," Narfi told her with a big smile.
"That is great. Was it a nice picture?" She asked them when Fury spooked again.
"Did you keep two?" he asked and she stood up.
"Your thought of humans aren't high," she said and the twins did look at Fury.
"If you have seen what I have seen you wouldn't have either," he said.
"Don't assume what I have seen," Cara told him and looked at the twins who stood next to her.
"Is he going to send us back?" Váli asked. She could hear the sorrow in his voice, and it made her heart break even more.
"No one will send you back," Thor said and the twins looked at him.
"Uncle Thor," they said in a happy voice and actually ran over to him and Thor lifted them up in his arm and laughed.
"Hello," Thor hugged him. Cara was a bit surprised by this, Thor had said that he wasn't close to his nephews, but maybe the twins was just happy to see another familiar face.
"Uncle?" Coulson asked.
"Tony!" Fury said in anger and turned to Stark. "Are you telling me that you have Loki's children here; without telling me? Or even planning on turning them in!"
"They are children…" Jane started but Fury ignored her.
"And you are there mother? Are you Loki's wife?" Fury asked and stepped closer to her, but Cara just stood there, sipping on her tea.
"Don't hurt Mother!" Narfi said and made Thor let go of him, and his brother. The twins stepped in between her and Fury, making Cara smile.
"I would say that it makes it confirmed, sir," the woman said.
"Then we need to bring them in. We can't have them on the lose! Hill, Coulson!" Fury said and grabbed Narfi who cried out in pain, and Cara putted down her mug and got a deadly glance in her eyes.
"I wouldn't do that!" Tony said, trying to warn Fury.
"Let go of him!" She said but Fury just shoved Narfi over to Coulson when Váli turned into a wolf and growled. He started walk towards Coulson who raised his gun, Cara was just about to raise a barrier to protect him when felt a gun to her head, forgetting about the woman. She had been too worried about the children and what Fury would do.
"Fury let them go!" Thor said.
"You don't know what you are doing!" Steve told him.
"Shut up. I am going to deal with all of you for hiding them later!" Fury said and looked at Váli who was still walking closer to Coulson and Narfi.
"Shoot him!" Fury said.
"But it's a kid, or should be," Coulson protested, and Cara thought that the man had some morals at least.
"It is Loki's kid. They are dangerous, look at him now!" Fury said and raised his own gun.
"Fury stop!" Natasha tried but Fury fired his gun.
Váli jumped but the shoot hit him in the leg and he howled in pain.
"Váli!" Narfi screamed and tried to get free, but Coulson had a firm grip on him as Fury walked closer to Váli.
"Stop," Cara cried out, feeling that it all was to familiar, only seeing the scene with Minna before she died in front of her, even if the children seemed to be immortal, she wasn't sure, maybe they wasn't, or maybe there were things on earth that could kill them.
She had no desire to figure it out, and she let the magic flow into her hands, but the woman saw it and soon Cara felt some pain coming from her head. The woman had hit her with the gun and Cara could feel the blood starting to flow. Fury got closer and pointed the gun at Váli's head, the others in the room didn't know what to do. They were worried that they would do something make Fury shoot the boy in the head, and make Hill shoot Cara. She had already hit her and they didn't want her to get shoot too. Not knowing if she could survive a shoot to the head.
"Hill handcuff her, then come and help me," Fury said and Cara heard Hill getting her handcuffs and Cara kicked her leg. She didn't want to get handcuffed again.
"Stay still!" Hill said but Cara tried to move when Hill shoot her, this time in the chest. Cara felt the pain as she looked at Hill with big eyes.
"Mother!" Narfi cried and Váli looked at her too, trying to move but Fury hold the gun to his head. Which made Narfi scream "Father help!"
The others in the room looked at Cara as she felt to her knees, Váli trying to get away but Fury pressed down on his wound, and the wolf cried out in pain again and Narfi cried for help once more. None of them could really grasp the situation, they were all in shock. Mostly over how Fury acted.
"Hill!" Fury said and Hill walked over to him. "Watch out, he is trying to bite! I need you to sit on him, while I try to tie him down."
"Don't touch him!" Loki said from behind, just walked into the room. The others did hear the hate and the coldness in his voice, knowing that Loki was really angry, which made him really dangerous. The tree agent's raised their weapons and aimed at Loki, but to slow, the others saw how Loki's magic left his hands, and the three agent's flow up in the air and threw the room. They did hear how bones broke as they hit the wall.
"Father," Narfi cried and ran over to Loki who picked him up and hugged him, crying himself.
Narfi made Loki go over to Váli who was bleeding from his wound as he turned back. He was hit in the leg but he tried not to show his pain.
"It's going to be alright," Loki said in a low voice and kissed Váli's forehead.
"I know, because Narfi is alright," Váli said and looked at his brother who hugged him.
"I am so sorry Váli, I shouldn't got caught," Narfi said to his brother, then putted his hands over his wounds, the others saw how it started to heal. They looked fascinated at him before they all almost at once remembered Cara and turned towards her.
"Cara," Steve said and kneeled behind her but she didn't answer.
"Is mother alright?" Váli asked but the others didn't answer. They looked at her and then at Loki, not sure what they would say. Cara's wound was right next to her heart, it was a lot of blood around her, and she was white.
"Does she has a pulse?" Natasha asked and looked at them, none of them had checked. Steve started to look as Váli stood up, leaning at Loki who just stood there, staring at Cara and the blood.
"I can't find one," Steve said in panic as he got blood all over his hands. "Wait, wait! I found it, it's very weak, but I found it!"
"We have to help her!" Thor said.
"I call an ambulance," Clint said.
"I have already done that Mr. Barton," Jarvis said.
"No need," Cara suddenly said in a very low voice.
"Cara!" Steve shouted and smiled in relief.
"Oh yes you are going to a hospital!" Tony said.
"I am not," Cara answered, not even looking at him. "It will heal."
"Are you crazy? You just got shoot, you are bleeding. Who knows how much blood you have lost?" Clint said.
"It's not even a litre yet," Cara informed them. "Trust me, I will be fine. I have been through worse."
"Worse? Worse would be death!" Tony said.
"Done that too, but death would not be worse," she tried to sit up.
"Don't," Steve said and she didn't have the strength to fight it.
"Are the children alright?" she asked.
"We are mother," Narfi said and walked over to her. "I have healing powers, can I help you?"
"there is no need for that, save your strength," she said but smiled at him. "But thank you for asking."
"Are you really going to be alright?" Váli asked as he and Loki walked over to her.
"I am going to be alright, no need to worry," she tried to sit up again but Steve stopped her. "Steve please let go of me."
"You aren't standing up!" He said and she sighed.
"I know what I am doing. And I will feel better when I stand up. It's easier for my body to heal the wound if something isn't pressed against it, as the floor is now. Luckily it was a threw and threw so I do not need to remove the bullet," she said and smiled. Steve let go of her and she slowly sat up. She was dizzy, and a bit weak but she didn't feel the pain. Loki gave her a concerned look.
"I am sorry for worrying you Loki," she apologised and Loki just looked shocked at her, before he helped her stand up and then carefully pulled her into a hug.
"I should have been here, I should have protected you, I failed you," Loki said.
"No you didn't! No one know this would happen, I thought the twins would be safe here. If someone failed anyone it was me, both you and your kids. I couldn't do anything," Cara answered him but Loki just hugged her to tell her that it was okay. But Cara just shook her head, she couldn't protect Narfi and Váli, just like she hadn't been able to protect Minna, and she felt the tears start to fall.
"Don't cry mother," Narfi hugged her.
"We are here," Váli said and hugged her too, but it only made her cry even more. She didn't even understood how they could call her mother, or was that just something they called her without any meaning behind it. But she was to tired to think about it at the moment.
"Cara," Loki stroke her over her hair trying to comfort her, and Cara felt guilty for making Loki do it. He shouldn't have to deal with her too, not with everything he is going through.
"Stay down," Tony suddenly said and they all looked at Fury and Hill who was standing up. Coulson was leaning against the wall, leg broken.
"What is the meaning of this Tony?" Fury said and pointed at Loki. "He is supposed to be locked up in Asgard. Odin told me that he would never get out!"
"You talked to Odin?" Steve said.
"He gives me reports from time to time. Telling me that Loki have tried to break out sometimes, that he is going mad and are worse than ever. He killed two guards who gave him food," Fury said. "Looks like he finally broke out. Has he compromised all of you?"
"None of us are under mind control," Clint said.
"How are you even alive?" Hill said and looked at Cara who felt who Loki became angry at once, but Cara stopped him from leaving her side.
"Because she is our mother! And she is amazing!" Narfi said and Thor laughed.
"That she is," Cara just shook her head, she wasn't amazing, but she was glad that Narfi defended her.
"We need to take them in, at least Loki, and return him to Asgard. I don't know about the others, but we will let Odin decide that," Fury said.
"You will not take my brother!" Thor said when there suddenly was a sound on the roof, they all looked at each other and Cara felt how Loki tensed up. Not knowing what happened.
"Don't worry Loki, I will protect you," Cara said and Loki looked at her and then he actually laughed a warm laugh, to everyones surprise.
"You can barely stand up," he said to her and Cara gave him a look.
"Doesn't matter. I will protect you!" She told him and he just shook his head at her and smiled. But as the step got closer he tensed up again and Cara took his hand.
"We will protect you too father," Váli and Narfi said.
"You will do no such thing. If anything happens you run and hide!" Loki told them.
When the step come closer they all stood prepared for the worst when Frigga suddenly walked into the room. She stopped when she saw all of them.
"Is this a traditional greeting here on earth?" She said with a smile and looked at all of them.
"Grandmother," the twins suddenly said and run over to her. Frigga was first very surprised before she kneeled down.
"Hi my sweethearts," she hugged them tightly. She was so relieved to see her youngest grandkids again, she thought she would never see them again. "But you are bloody. A lot of you are actually bloody. What happened?"
"The bad man tried to capture us, he then shoot Váli and Cara," Narfi said and pointed at Fury and Frigga looked angry at him.
"You try to hurt children?" She said.
"His children!" Fury said and pointed at Loki and Frigga looked at him.
"Oh Loki," she said and walked over to him and Loki looked down, not daring to look at his mother. "Please look at me love."
Loki slowly looked at her and Frigga smiled at him.
"It's so good to see you again," she said, even if he still was thin and covered in blood, she meant it. "Is it okay to hug you?"
Loki looked very unsure, and Cara knew that it wasn't because he was scared of Frigga, he felt unworthy. Frigga stood there with open arms but Loki didn't move so Cara pushed him very lightly towards his mother and Loki gave her a surprised glance, but Cara only smiled and leaned against the table instead. Loki slowly walked to Frigga and hugged her.
"Oh Loki," Frigga said and hold her youngest close.
"Mother," Loki said in a low voice and Cara smiled.
After a while Loki stepped back and stood next to Cara.
"Cara," Frigga looked at her with horror.
"I have been worst, don't you worry about me," she said and Frigga gave her a serious look.
"I think I am going to worry about you anyway," Cara just smiled.
"I can't stop you from doing so," she answered her. "But what are you doing here Frigga?"
"I have bad news," she looked at Loki. "Odin has figured out that you have escaped."
Cara saw how the colour of Loki's face disappeared, how he tried to grasp what he heard, how he started to shake.
"He is going to find me," Loki said and putted his arm arounds him, trying to protect himself. "I can't…I can't go back."
Cara saw how Loki tried to stay calm but he couldn't. He started to walk back and forth over the floor.
"Loki," Cara said in a friendly voice but he didn't listen to her.
"I can't…I can't…" he only said over and over.
"Loki, love," Frigga tried but he didn't hear her either.
"So he did break out. Then Odin is going to be happy to get him back," Fury said and took a step closer.
"Stop," Tony said.
"Get out of my way Tony. All of you have done enough damage as it is, and I am will deal with you later," Fury said.
"You aren't touching my brother!" i
"He is a criminal, and a monster. He is going to go back where he belongs! And I am going to take the kids and his wife too," Fury said.
"Fury stop," Steve tried this time.
"Out of the way, it's an order!" Fury shouted at them and raised his weapons and so did Hill, which made the Avengers get hostile, and Loki even more scared.
"What's wrong with father?" Narfi asked.
"Father?" Váli asked and Cara could hear how scared they were when suddenly a shoot got fired. Loki jumped before he screamed and covered his ear when the others started to fight. The twins started to cry and trying to talk to their father who fell down on his knees panicking.
"Stop," Cara screamed and released her magic. Everyone around her suddenly stopped in the middle of their step, except Loki, who she hadn't dared to hit with magic, not knowing what would happen. Cara grabbed the table in order not to fall down, she was breathing heavily, fighting to even stand up. Her body was near exhaustion and shutting down, until it got its energy back.
When she had caught her breath a bit she turned around to the others.
"You will not touch Loki in anyway. I will kill you before you do!" She said to Fury. "He will never go back to Odin!"
Fury could of course not answer since he was caught in the spell.
"I do not know what to do with you at this moment. I don't have time to deal with you either," she admitted them and then looked at the Avengers. "Can you deal with them? I do not care what you do with them, as long as he cannot contact Odin"
Cara let go of the spell of the Avengers who nodded and as they took the weapons from Fury and the others, and handcuffed them she let go of the spell of them too.
"We will come up with something," Steve said.
"Thank you," she answered before she turned towards the twins and let go of the spell over them as she kneeled before them.
"I know that you are scared, and I know that you are wondering what's happening to your father. I will talk to him and see what I can do. But I need you to be strong. Can you do that?" She asked and the slowly nodded.
"Is father going to be alright?" Váli asked.
"I don't know, but I will do my best to help him. But you should know that he loves you very much, no matter what happens."
"We love him too. Can you tell him that?" Narfi asked.
"Of course!" Cara said and the twins hugged her and she hugged them back. "I need you to go with your grandmother and uncle."
Cara freed Frigga and then looked at her and then at Thor, both of them nodded.
"Come," Thor said and the twins walked over to Thor who picked them up.
"Help him Cara," Frigga said and looked at Loki.
"I will do my best," she only said as Frigga walked after Thor and Jane who had walked away with the twins. And soon the rest of the avengers left the room too.
Cara turned towards Loki who sat on the floor tears falling, and he was dragging his nails up and down his arm. She saw the blood that was dropping on the floor and she wanted to hug Loki, telling him everything would be alright, but she couldn't. She couldn't say everything would be alright, because she didn't know. Instead she started to sing the song she had sung before and hoped that it would help.
After what Cara thought was an hour Loki had stopped scratch himself, but it took another hour before he stopped shaking, and after the third hour he looked at her and she smiled.
"Hi," she only said when Loki suddenly throw himself in her arms. She felt the pain in her chest but she ignored it. She understood how scared he was and she hugged him as she strokes his back. "I am here."
Loki didn't say anything, he just sat there in her arms on the floor.
"I will protect you at any cost, you and the kids," she said. "I will never leave you alone. If Odin want's you, he will get me too."
Loki did look at her in horror.
"No," he said in a low voice "Don't let that happen."
"I will try not to, but I will not let you be alone in that cell again! And trust me I can handle it," she said and smiled a smile without any joy in it, which made Loki look at her with sad eyes. "Let's hope it doesn't come to that. We will fight, I will fight for you! I told you years ago that I am always at your side, always!"
"Not in that," Loki whispered and Cara hugged him.
"If that's what is needed to help you, I am," she told him and Loki started to cry.
"I am so sorry...I want…to…do more," He said to her. "I am…such a…burden."
"Loki you aren't a burden, I wouldn't be here if I thought that! You are my friend and I care about you! And you are doing everything you can! You saved us earlier," Cara told him.
"You were all…in…danger…because of…me," Loki said while crying.
"I know what I was getting myself into years ago, and your children loves you. They will never leave your side or think you are a bad father because of what happened. You are there hero, they believe in you, and you did save them," Cara told him and Loki didn't answer her.
"Loki you need to sleep; I need to sleep. I know that you are scared but I you will be safe in your room, you can lock the door and be invisible. And the others are in the tower, they will help you," Cara told him and he looked at her.
"Stay with me," he said and she smiled.
"Didn't plan on leaving you," she told him and he slowly stood up and helped her up. She almost fell and he caught her. "Sorry about that."
Loki just picked her up in his arms and carried her to his room.
