"The door's open." Thor commented.

"Congratulations, then. I see you have two eyes in your head." Loki replied sarcastically.

"Relax. He's just trying to help." Luna pushed open the door further, which, thankfully didn't creak and stepped in cautiously.

She squinted into the darkness, her eyes slowly adjusting to the lack of light.

She scanned the room for shadows or movement that might give the chitauri's position away.

"There!" She yelled as she pointed to a blob in the dark. Knowing it's game was up, it jumped out and started shooting.

Luna pushed Elle out of the way and rolled to her feet. Diving for the chitauri, she froze when it pulled out a taser.

"You have those?" She asked in disbelief. She turned to jump but wasn't quick enough.

As the electricity went through her, she felt her body stiffen like a board, and lost all motor skills.

Luna heard someone saying something, but it was muffled and sounded like she heard it underwater.

She felt herself being picked up from where she was lying on the ground, but wasn't able to look up to see who it was.

In fact, her vision was blurring and darkness was seeping in.

Elle watched as the alien smashed the window and jump out, threatening to kill her should anyone of them move.

Thor picked up the tracker and walked to Elle, "Lady Elle, can we use this?"

Elle was already out the door, "Yes we can. Now hurry."

Once they were in the car, Elle started the ignition. "Give me directions, and I'll drive."

Three lefts and a right later, Elle gasped, "There's only one thing I can think of in the direction the spot you're talking about. But why would they bring her there?"

Luna woke with her arms and legs bound tightly. She tried to get up, but either her legs weren't able to, or she was tied down.

Spotting a chitauri, she shouted, "Where am I?"

The alien simpered, looking please with itself, "You like the stars, girl? Take a look at them then, since it's the last thing you'll ever see."

Instead of replying, she looked down. There was rope bounding her arms, and her wrists were already raw from being rubbed, "Hey. Where am I?"

"You'll find out soon enough. It's a pity though, to die before you are done."

Luna scowled, "You wouldn't."

Straining her ears, she could hear the distant sound of a train horn, "What? You tied me to a train track?"

The chitauri wasn't around to reply. Instead, Loki was on his knees next to her, trying to untie the ropes.

Elle stood behind him, watching the track, "Um, you better hurry, cause, the train is coming. Fast."

Angling her head to look at Elle, "Do you have a knife?" She asked. Elle shook her head.

The blaring if the train horns were much louder now. "Hurry. You'll be ran over in less than a minute if you don't hurry."

Thor bent down on the other side of her testing and pulling at the ropes. Luna signed, "It's no use. You'll never untie it in time."

Thor stood up and walked in front of Luna, joined by Loki. "What are you doing? You'll be ran over!"

The train could be seen already, "Move! You're not gods anymore. You heal fast, but you still bleed and die all the same as humans will. And believe me, humans die when hit by trains."

Luna looked to Elle, her tone and look pleading, "Elle! Get them off."

Elle gave her an apologetic look, "Sorry. It's their decision."

Luna laid her head back, "Hurry! You won't survive this. Just get off the track!"

Loki looked back and gave her a grin, "Since when do we listen to you?"

And with that, the train reached them with a ear deafening crash. Luna closed her eyes again, not wanting to look.

And then, there was a strangely calming silence. "Am I dead yet?" Luna called out.

"Luna, open your eyes, they're not dead yet, you know?" Elle stood over her trying to coax her eyes open.

Luna opened both eyes, and looked up. Elle smiled at her, pointing to a dazed Thor and Loki.

Stooping down, she worked carefully as not to irritate the bruises on Luna's hand. Within minutes, the knots were untied and Luna could move again.

Loki sat dazed on the train track, confused. He had felt the train hit him, yet he wasn't dead yet. Thor crawled over to him, "Brother? How are we still alive?"

Loki pointed to the rising sun, "And we aren't animals yet. Could it be...we did risk our lives to save another."

Thor smirked, "You were more than willing. You probably wouldn't have minded even if you were dead."

Loki turned beet red and looked away. Remembering Luna, he walked over to her, "Are you okay?"

Luna flung herself onto him, and buried her head in his shoulder. "I thought you would die. I thought I would die." She half sobbed into his clothes."

Thor walked over, "Do I get a hug too? Cause, like, I was going to die too." He said jokingly.

Choking on laughter, she turned and hugged him as well, "Very funny. Are you really the god of thunder? And he the god of lies and mischief?"

Thor winked and stepped back, "His he can show you himself. Watch." He raised his hands to the sky dramatically, and lightning flashed through the sky.

Thunder crashed and rained poured, and Thor grinned even wider. Lightning struck near the ground Luna stood on as rain soaked her to the bone.

When Thor was done, he turned back to see Elle, Luna and Loki soaking wet and glaring at him.

"Subtle, brother, very subtle." Loki stated.

After they arrived home, and Luna's shoulder was treated and bandaged, there was a knock at the door.

"Strange. Its so early. Who would visit?" She got up and walked to open the door.

On opening the door, Gabriel's face came into view. The atmosphere in the room tensed, with both Elle and Thor to see how she would respond.

Her hand edged to the baseball bat, "What are you doing here?"

Gabriel smirked, "Good to see you too."

Luna put one hand on her hip, "You've got a lot of nerve walking in here."

"Aren't you going to welcome me in?"

Fuming, she lifted the bat and hit him on the head. She threw the bat at him, "Get out! And take your stupid bat with you!"

When she her hand to slap him, he grabbed her hands. "Get your filthy hands off me." She twisted and tried to kick him.

"Ok, its me, it's me. Please stop. Sorry." Gabriel's face dissolved to reveal Loki.

Confusion gave way to understanding on Luna face. Feeling tricked, Luna complained, "You're not a very nice God of mischief. I should hit you again for that."

Awkward silence filled the room as the pair stared onto each other's eyes. "Um, you can let go of my hands now."

His blush deepened, something he seemed to be doing a lot these few days, and let go.

Clearing her throat, she stepped back to examine their outfits. "Do all asgardians wear such weird outfits? With the gold, and the sliver and the" She tapped on Loki's helmet, "weird helmets."

"Luna, how would you like to see for yourself? To go and see Asgard?" Thor inquired.

Luna shrugged, having taken Loki's helmet and was trying it on, "I don't know. It seems nice, from what I've heard, but it's not like I can't just waltz in."

Thor smiled. "Heimdall, open the bifrost." Thor called out. As lights started shining down, Luna gasped, "You're going to waltz in right now, aren't you?"

Luna was suddenly apprehensive. "Wait. Hang on a moment, you guys aren't going to bring me as well, right?"

Loki replied, and took back his helmet, "Actually, we are. Hold on to me, and try not to faint or throw up."

Luna blanched, and looked to Elle for assistance.

Elle waved, "See you later."

"Do I have to wear a crazy, long over dramatic dress, or will a shirt and jeans suffice?" Luna asked.

"Relax, we'll provide the crazy dress." Loki assured.
