Why did I do this? I just jumped out of a jet and now I'm falling to my death. Come on! Come on! Think! I focus on the air around me. I hear the thunder pick up. I feel one gust of wind hit me. I grab my left side of my jacket with my left hand and the right side with my right hand. Focus...
I feel the wind pick up greatly and soon I'm gliding. I don't think this is exactly flying, but it's good enough. I start to make out mountains and see Loki and, I presume, is Thor. I begin flying lower and I'm about to hit the ground. One giant blast of wind propelled me up just a little bit to let me land on my feet and roll. I take a couple of big breathes. Not every day you jump from a jet without a parachute.
I hear the brothers talking and follow the sound of their voice. I walk past tall trees and see the, what Natasha called, Asgardians.
"Think yourself above them?" asked Thor.
"Well, yes." answered Loki as if it wasn't even a real question. I saw Thor's hammer sitting on the ground. I wouldn't dare touch it though, at least not this close to them.
"Then you miss the truth of ruling, brother. A throne would suit you ill."
Then Loki turned to me. I stood up, showing that I wasn't planning on attacking them. I don't think Thor is planning on freeing or killing Loki. They both look at me.
Thor reaches his hand out and the hammer flies to him. Okay, I thought they were just aliens. This seems more like magic . . .
"Who is this?" asked Thor directed at Loki.
"As if I should know, brother. He seems to have a similar taste in power as you."
"We will talk about this some other time. You give up the Tesseract now! You give up this poisonous dream! You come home." begged Thor. He truly wanted Loki to stop.
"I don't have it."
"You listen well, brother." started Thor when out of nowhere Iron Man tackled him sending them down beside the mountain.
"I'm listening..."
"That's alright guys! I'll watch over Loki!" I shouted down at them.
"Do you truly believe you could stop me if I wanted to leave?" asked Loki.
"No." I said simply.
"Clever one. It will take more than wits to stop me, of course. No mortal could ever do that."
"I'm not sure what your problem is, but I'm pretty sure I can't pronounce it."
He paused a second, not used of someone like me.
"Oh you. You think yourself mortal? You are more powerful than you give yourself credit for. See I simply give myself credit. You humans were made to be ruled!"
"No, Loki. Humans were made to be rulers." We turn and see lightning hit Thor's hammer to which Thor directed to Iron Man. Iron Man then blasted him back. They seem to be fighting pretty rough for both being on the same side.
"A house divided against itself cannot succeed." said Loki while looking down at them.
I hear more noise from the two avengers fighting. We look back at each other.
"Can you do more than just the weather?" he asked me.
"Um, I don't think so..." I tell myself to stop listening to him. He is a manipulator, or so I heard.
I look down and see three green snakes crawling towards me. I jump back. Loki smiled and waved his hand over them. The serpents disappeared. I hear Captain America's voice but I'm too focused on Loki to care. I feel a silver snake crawling on my hand.
"Make it go away!" I order him.
"I can't. I'm not doing it."
I look at him and then back to the snake. I squint and it vanishes. Out of nowhere a giant blue explosion happens sending me back a foot. I get up and look back down at them. Like what just happened?"
"Are we done here?" asked Captain America.
Minutes later the jet lands and we all climb back in.
Rylee looks happy to know that I didn't die, but surprised I did jump out in the first place. I didn't know why I did it either. I just had to find out more about this Asgardians. The entire trip, Thor never took his eyes of Loki. Neither did Rylee.
When we got back to the helicarrier, Loki was led away to a glass cage. All the rest of us head back to the main control room and sit down at a table. A monitor pops us showing Nick Fury and Loki talking to each other at the cell. Nick Fury talks about how impossible it is to escape.
"It's an impressive cage. Not built, I think, for me." commented Loki.
"Built for something a lot stronger than you." What is Nick talking about?
"Oh, I've heard," said Loki while looking into the camera, directly at us. Seriously what are they talking about? "The Mindless beast, makes play to be a man."
I look over and see Mr. Banner trying not to be affected by what he's saying.
"Who is he talking about?" asked Rylee.
"Nothing, darling, don't worry about it-" started Captain America.
"No, no, it's fine. He means me. I get pretty destructive when I'm angry."
"Oh." replied Rylee. We both assume he's talking about The Hulk which made a mess in New York City a few years back. Dr. Banner is him? I guess it makes sense really. He has been overly shy since I met him. Must be a nightmare to be him.
I hear Captain America, Banner, and Thor talk about what is happening. I hear something about an army that comes through a portal. A portal made by Loki to rule the world. I also hear concern in Natasha's voice as she mentions how Loki can put some type of spell over people.
"He killed eighty people in two days." Says Natasha.
"He's adopted." said Thor. What? No one told me about this. I suppose that explains how they look different but still.
"Iridium, what did they need the iridium for?"
"It's a stabilizing agent," said Tony walking in. "Means the portal won't collapse on itself, like it did at S.H.E.I.L.D. No hard feelings Point Break, you have a mean swing. Also, it means the portal can open as wide and stay open as long as Loki wants."
He walks to the glass monitors and starts to act like he owns the place, asking how Nick even see these. Agent Maria told him that he simply turns. After a while Banner and Tony talked a lot about science and the cube. Nick Fury comes in and talks about how Loki made someone named Barton and Selvig his flying monkeys.
"Monkeys? I do not understand." said Thor.
"I do! I understand that reference..." said Captain America.
