Hello all, I don't own the Avengers! This requirestones of cleanup- all Lokis fault.
Chapter Two: Loki'd!
THOR ODINSON'S POV
(static). How do you use this device? Press this button? Yes? It is on? Ok.
Hello, little mortal. Merida tells me that when I say that I remind her of Sheogorath, however, she refuses to tell me who Sheogorath is. I hope he is a nice man.
When Merida revealed herself to be my niece, we all attacked, swinging weapons at her head and shooting things at her. She was extremely scared after Clint almost hit her in the knee with an arrow. (why is that so funny, Tony? I imagine it would be painful!). At that point she began to scream that she was innocent.
"Stop attacking me!" she screamed, "I am innocent! Innocent!"
"Innocent?" said Tony with disbelief, "You are the daughter of a murderer, and a super villain!"
"That murderer is my brother!" I defended, to which they all(even Merida) said, "He killed thirty people in two days!"
"He's adopted." I amended, and Merida flailed her arms about.
"I met you once, Tony Stark!" she cried, and Tony looked as if he suddenly recognized her.
"You're that Aristocrats daughter," he said, and she nodded.
"Did I seem evil then?"
"No, but did I seem like a hero then?"
"Yes."
"Liar."
"The point is," said Merida, sighing, "You would judge me by the deeds of my father, who I knew a very different side of. He was very kind to me and me sister. Face it, Avengers, we both know a different side of my father. And the one I know would not want me wasting my time trying to join a group that is blinded by hatred. Peace out. Oh, and goodbye Uncle Thor. Come over sometime!"
And she left.
MERIDA LOKISON'S POV
I'll be the first to admit that I overreacted, but that doesn't mean I regret the decision I made. By doing that I showed the Avengers that they were an option- I didn't need them. But they needed me. Clint needed someone other than Pepper to drink tea with at four in morning with. Tony needed someone who knew as much about Skyrim as he did, Pepper and Natasha both needed a girl they could get along with, Bruce needed someone as smart(and humble) as him, and Steve needed someone who loved history like he did. And Thor needed his niece.
I knew they needed me. So I wasn't surprised when they all chased me out of the building and onto the street, Tony shouting something about truth serum, which made Clint frown and go inside, leaving me to be thrown over the Hulk's shoulder, which ended with me saying to Steve, "Are you sure Barton won't poison me?"
"Trust me, ma'am, Agent Barton's the only one around here who can cook. If any of us tried, we would probably end up poisoning you-on accident, of course."
"Hulk smash." said Hulk sadly, and Steve patted him on the back.
"That's okay. I'm sure you wouldn't mean to smash the cookware."
I raised an eyebrow at him, but he shrugged.
So that was how the Avengers fed the homeless girl lunch.
The end.
Haha, did I get you? Did I? [Loki: Loki'd!]
They did feed me lunch, but it had truth serum in it, which tastes like a nasty mix of grass, garlic, and cat pee(what I imagine it would taste like). It was nearly masked, but it was still undeniably there, and I almost gagged. To be polite, I merely grimaced. I noticed Clint saw, and looked horribly disappointed, but I smiled at him and said,
"These potatoes are really good..."
"She's blocking the serum!" cried Tony, at the same moment Natasha said, "What did the serum taste like?"
"Grass, garlic, and cat pee, though it was barely tasteable."
Tasteable. Is that a word? It is now.
"It's working." said Clint, before asking, "Did your father send you?"
"No."
"Are you a liar?"
"I try not to lie."
"Do you honestly want to join the Avengers."
"No. I want to rule the world."
"I knew it!" cried Tony, throwing his arms out,and I rolled my eyes.
"Sarcasm, Stark." I said, folding my arms.
"But it's truth serum!" he shouted, shocked.
"She never said what world she wanted to rule," pointed out , who was wearing a different coloured shirt and a pair of jeans, instead of slacks.
"Uh," I said, looking at Banner, "Weren't you wearing green before?"
"When I change into the Hulk,my clothes get destroyed. I had to change." he said, looking slightly embarrassed.
"You go through a lot of clothes?" I asked, and he nodded.
"Do you ever talk to your father?" Rogers asked, kneeling next to me.
"Yep." I said, then clamped my hands over my mouth. Stupid brain, stupid tongue, stupid serum. I swore in my head, throwing in some Nordic curses for good effect. when I had finished my mental swear-fest, I noticed everyone looking at me, astonished.
"Did...did I say that all out loud?"
Tony looked amazed, and blurted out, "I didn't know half of those words!"
"That's because half of them are Norse," I said, blushing.
"I like her," pronounced Tony, and I fell over. When I got up, I said, "you just hated my guts a minute ago!"
"I wasn't sure about you a minute ago," retorted Tony, "and besides, I know now for certain you aren't working for your father."
"How?" I asked, and then the disembodied voice of JARVIS said, "When you were being questioned, though your temperature stayed average, your heart rate sped up."
"Good liars keep their heart rate steady," said Tony, "And your father is the Liesmith."
"So welcome to the team," said Clint, grinning.
"Do you play Skyrim?" asked Tony.
"Of course," I said.
Later that night- it might have been the next morning, in fact, because Tony and I were having way too much fun fighting Bandits, Forsworn, Hagravens, and the occasional dragon- I finally got to my room(more like suite- it has a fricking minibar) and fell asleep, exhausted. And, like most nights for the past few years, I found myself in a giant library, sitting in a gold armchair opposite my father, who sat in a dark green one. He looked as handsome as ever, if a bit thinner than the last time I had seen him. His black hair was shoulder length, slicked back, and flipping out, and his blue eyes were like chips of ice. His pale lips were formed into a happy smile, and he reached out his arms.
"Meri!" he said, and I hugged him. He smiled wider, and said, "So you got in?"
"Of course I got in," I scoffed, "though they thought I was spying for you."
Loki laughed, a genuine laugh that not many people got to hear. "I wish you were spying for me," he remarked, and I smiled at him, saying,
"Never."
We talked like that for most of the night, and just as usual, though It seemed as of I had been awake all night, I still felt rested when I awoke... At eleven A.M.
"Miss McIre,"said JARVIS, "You are required on the floor above."
"Should I get dressed?" I asked, standing up and stretching,
"It was not required."
I laughed and dressed anyway, before taking the elevator up a floor. There I saw a rather tall black man standing in the centre of the room, apparently having an argument with the Avengers. I noticed he was wearing a black eyepatch.
"Nice coat!" I said, drawing attention to myself. The black guy turned around and I decided he looked like a space pirate. As everyone stared at me, I said,
"Er... argh?"
"Merida McIre Lokison." said eyepatch, "you are under arrest."
"WHAT?" I screeched, making Tony have to stifle a giggle. It turned out badly though, and Eyepatch turned on him.
"Stark," said Eyepatch, "you are harbouring a criminal."
"I'm the daughter of a demigod," I said, deciding the best way to deal with this guy was to act like the princess I was, "I am not a criminal!"
"Your father is a criminal."
"And?" I asked, "my father is facing his crimes in Asgard."
"We don't know that. They could be partying it up up there."
"They aren't." I promised darkly, and the temperature dropped a few degrees.
"You're still under arrest," said Eyepatch, holding his handcuffs expectantly.
"Who are you."
"Nick Fury, S.H.I.E.L.D Director." He said, and I saluted.
"I've heard of you," I said, "Sir." I stuck out my hand, and he clamped a handcuff on it. He clasped the other one to his wrist, and as I scowled he said, "So you don't run away."
"You know," I said, "I'm a princess. You could start a war!"
"Too bad," he said, and then everything went dark.
When I woke up, I was inside a green cell. Fury was outside, and I scowled at him.
"Was it necessary to knock me out?" I asked, folding my arms.
"We couldn't let you know where you are."
"I already know. Your 'secret' helicarrier."
Man, I sounded like my dad when I said that. And fury apparently thought so too, because he paled slightly.
"What did your father tell you?"
"What do you mean?"
"Don't play dumb. We know you keep in touch with your father in dreams."
"I didn't dream, Fury. You knocked me out."
"Mmhmm."
I leaned forward and slammed my fist against the glass. I stared at him, and said darkly,
"Mark my words, 'Director' Fury. This cage will not hold me for long. And when I am free, you will face real power."
Shamelessly steal your fathers lines: $400
"Well, tell me if 'real power' wants a magazine or something."
He turned to walk out of the room, and I said,
"A drink."
"What?" he turned, and raised an eyebrow at me. "Like, apple juice?"
"Alcohol. I want a drink."
Do a Tony Stark: $600
He gaped at me, then shut his mouth with a snap and said, "Uh-uh. We are not giving you a drink."
The look on Fury's face? Priceless.
"Listen, Eyepatch, I am old enough to drink alcohol, and though I'm guessing your afraid to give me alcohol for two reasons, one being you had a party and Thor drank, and two you think I'll be super boosted from the alcohol-enough so I can be free- I assure you that is not true. I simply have a headache."
"Fine," said Fury, "I'll get you a drink."
And he walked out of the room.
LOKI LAUFEYSONS POV
I got word first from Odin and then from my adopted mother that my daughter was in danger. And then they gave me a bit of leave-parole, if you want to go by Midgardian terms- and Sif was my guard-parole officer. Thankfully we were leaving Fandral behind. Even though I didn't mind the other two of the Warriors Three, I did not want Fandral flirting with my daughter. Even if she would beat him up because of it.
"My Prince," said Sif, and I sighed.
"Lady Sif, just call me Loki, please."
"Loki-do you have a plan?"
I chuckled, smirking, which made Sif raise an eyebrow,
"Of course I do. It's crazy, but no crazier than going into Jotunheim, and a lot less likely to cause unseen plot twists that will surprise the audience."
"Ah. So... It probably involves the Avengers?"
I nodded, and we reached the rainbow bridge. My brother managed, somehow, to rebuild it, and the Bifrost was back up- and Heimdall was back in a job.
"My lord, Lady," he said, nodding to each of us, "Your mission brings much hope to the people of Asgard- and to your future, Loki. This is the path to redemption."
"What if I don't want to be redeemed?" I asked, but only received a level stare from Heimdall. I rolled my eyes and stepped into the Bifrost, and soon enough we were out of Asgard and on top of the S.H.I. Helicarrier. There, also on top, was Iron Man and Thor. Our presence did not go unnoticed, as Iron Man turned and raised his hand.
"You...you ruined my tower!"
"And you fixed it," I said matter-of-factly.
"I'm guessing you're here to take your daughter and make her evil?"
"I'm here to rescue her. I'm on... Parole."
Iron Man laughed loudly, and said, "and this is your parole officer?"
"Brother!" shouted Thor, and hugged me. I yelped, and tried to move.
"Crushing... Lungs..." I gasped, and he let me go.
"We will rescue Princess Merida!"
When we actually found the cage, we found Merida playing a Midgardian game system while drinking a glass of wine. She looked more bored than anything, and I suddenly had an idea.
"Thor," I asked, "Can you and Iron Man cause a diversion outside the ship? I have an idea."
"Dad?" asked Merida, looking up and coming to the glass, "they knocked me out to get me in here. And apparently they want to know your next plan. They seem to. Think you're partying it up on Asgard."
"We'll get you out, Meri," I promised.
"Lady Sif, you and I need to go cause a distraction on the bridge. Meri, create a double outside the cage."
I grinned at the melted remains of the camera.
"We're recreating your escape, aren't we," said Iron Man, "Minus your minions."
"Oh no," I said, smirk getting larger, "You're the minions."
Tony Stark scowled, his faceplate came down, and he and Thor took off.
Sif and I ran up to the bridge, where we found Nick Fury, Agent Hill, and a whole bunch of other agents. Fury saw me first, and shouted, "Code red, Code red!"
Everyone began shooting at us, but I stopped the bullets and sent them back.
"Puny mortals," I said, "You thought you could defeat me? I might have forgotten about your puny planet, if not for the fact that you thought you could lock up my daughter and get away with it. You mortals are all fools. It was foolish of you to doubt the might of I, Laufeyson!"
I saw one agent slip away, probably to go check on my daughter. I knew Merida knew what to do, so I let the agent go.
"Sir," cried one agent, "Iron Man and Thor are taking down one of the engines!"
"WHAT?!" shouted Fury, stalking up to me, "What did you do to them?"
"Nothing," I said with a smirk, "They decided to help me all on their own."
"Loki, you are going down." said the angry man, and as the ship shuddered, I said, "No, I think you are 'going down.'"
"Two engines out, sir."
I tsked in a fake sympathetic way.
"And no Avengers to save you."
Merida appeared next to me, and said, "Hello, father."
"Take my hand," I said, addressing both of them. They did, and, concentrating, I teleported us out of the ship. We met Captain America outside Stark Tower, and he gaped.
"Give me your Avengers card," said Merida. Rovers handed it over, and she said, "Tony, Thor, come back to Stark Tower pronto."
TONY STARKS POV
Was I surprised when Loki appeared with a pretty lady(OW, Pepper, that hurt! She isn't my type anyway...)? Yes, yes I was. Even moreno when I teamed up with him to break Merida out of S.H.I.E.L.D custody. But I decided to go with it, especially when we found Merida playing Skyrim and drinking a glass of wine in Loki's old cage. And when Thor and I blasted a hole in the wall, I said, "Hey, Thor... Am I Barton, or Selvik?"
"Clint," said Thor in all seriousness.
"JARVIS," I asked, hovering above the front right engine, "What is the best way to blow this thing up?"
"Sir, Thor should conjure lighting at the middle and you should hit where it is attached, sir."
So we did. I shot beam after beam at the damn thing until it was barely hanging on. And then we moved to the next one.
"I never thought I'd be destroying the engines on this thing," I yelled, and then Merida's voice came over my helmet.
"Tony, Thor, report back to Stark Tower pronto."
"C'mon, big guy," I said, "Reindeer Games and Princess want us back."
We got back to Stark Tower, and found Loki drinking some of my Whiskey while Merida scribbled frantically on a bit of paper. The pretty woman stood off in a corner with Pepper, who looked slightly scared about the three Asgardians in the tower. Rogers was in a rather uncomfortable position- Clint and Natasha were kissing, no, making out-on the couch beside him, and Banner was also in a corner, though he had headphones on and was holding an iPad.
"Reindeer games!" I said loudly, as Pepper rushed over and hissed,
"What the hell is Loki doing here?"
I placed my hands on her shoulders.
"Pepper," I said, "Reindeer Games helped us save Merida."
"I resent that name!" said Loki, and Merida spoke up, pulling her father down beside her.
"Everyone, come here."
We all moved to my bar, and Merida sat down.
"I'm sure you all would like to know why my father-Loki- is here. He is on... Parole, basically, and that woman there is the Lady Sif. My father, along with Tony, Thor and Sif, broke me out of the very cage used to hold my father."
Natasha gasped, and Clint looked slightly worried.
"This, of course, means that S.H.I.E.L.D is now our enemy. I want everyone to suit up, and prepare for attack, because S.H.I.E.L.D thinks my dad is trying to take over the world... Again."
Just as she finished her sentence, S.H.I.E.L.D agents burst through all of the windows and began firing.
"Avengers, assemble!"
