LokiXReader: Black Wings Part 4, You Will Deal With It

"You didn't by any chance watch the news last night, did you?" Loki asks. You are both still walking on the sidewalk to an unknown place. "No. Why?" You ask, confusion in your voice. "Just wondering..." He says, casting his gaze downwards. You stop dead in your tracks, "Tell me." "No nothing..." "What did you do?" You ask, thinking Loki did something destructive again. "Well. Um. How do I word this," He says, lifting his hand to his chin. "S.H.I.E.L.D is looking for you, and so is half of New York." He finishes, giving a fake smile. Your eyes grow wide, and you look at the sidewalk. "We have to get out of here..." You say, walking past Loki, almost running. Loki has to walk faster to keep up with you. "Well, we are kind of trapped. Anywhere we go they will recognize me. So our last resort is flying..." He says, putting emphasis on the word 'flying'. "Good thinking, dip-shit. People will totally not notice two people flying with a 20 foot wingspan of feathers!" You say, obviously mad and scared at the same time. Then it hits you. Crystal. Crystal. She will give you shelter, and you'll be home. HOME! You stop in the middle of the sidewalk, and Loki runs into you. "Hm. Earth to (Y/n), KEEP WALKING!" "I have an idea." You say, grabbing his shoulders. "I can only imagine..."

"GREAT THINKING! ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! LETS STAND IN THE MIDDLE OF TIME SQUARE AND WAIT FOR A TAXI! YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT WANTED OR ANYTHING! WE WONT BE SHOT ON SIGHT AT ALL!" Loki screams while he is next to you. You are in the middle of time square, and it is raining. Badly. Not a drizzle, like clouds decided to just let it all go on a city. "Well, maybe if you stopped SCREAMING! Maybe we wont be caught." You say, maneuvering through the crowd of people to a street, Loki trailing behind you. You finally reach the street, and it is full of parallel parked cars, and taxis waiting for riders. You both walk up to one of the taxis and climb in, just thankful to get out of the bustling city, and rain. The man in the front seat stared out the windshield. "Where to?" He asks, looking at the both of you in the rear view mirror. You proceed to tell him the address of your old house. You wondered if both of them where still there. Jack and Crystal. Or if your entire home had been lost over the 10 years.

Well it certainly wasn't lost, but it certainly wasn't the same either. You got out of the taxi, and looked at your old house. Same porch, same car in the driveway, same windows, same gross navy blue color and tan roof. All the same, yet all aged. The paint was peeling off the garage, the porch was almost in pieces, and the old flowerbeds were now just unplanted soil. Yet you were still home. No matter the changes, you lived in that house for 14 years, and now its all back. "Hello? You've been staring at it for around two minutes now." Loki says impatiently. "Fine." You say, walking up the front steps to the door. You rang the door bell, and heard rustling of feet inside. The door behind the screen door opened, and a lady with slight grayed hair greeted you both. "Yes?" She asked, inspecting the both of you. You swallowed hard "Crystal Galton?" You asked, cracking your knuckles. "This is she." She says, confused. You felt your heart jump. It was her. Your mother. Mother. You were home! "I'm (Y/n) (L/n)." You say, lighting up like a pair of headlights. Crystals eyes grew wide, she came to realization it was you. "Black Bird." She says, opening the screen door and hugging you. You were home.

You were let inside of your own house to talk with Crystal. Even though you were gone for 10 years, you didn't have much to talk about. Loki just paced around the living room glancing at all of the painting, and china Crystal had. You sit with her at your old kitchen table. Everything was basically the same. "It was so different without you here." She says. "Its certainly different sleeping in an actual bed, after sleeping in a cage for 10 years." You say. Glancing out the kitchen window to your old backyard. The creek was still running through the yard, and your old, now rotted out, swing set still set up. "I guess you kept everything the same." You say, looking back at Crystal. She has aged herself over the past years. Probably from stress mostly. "Yes. I couldn't bear to part with any part of you." She says, folding her hands on the table. You hear glass break in the living room, and a faint "Whoops..." from Loki. You sigh, "What did you do." "I'LL PAY FOR IT!" He says. You can hear him frantically pick up glass, and set it on the coffee table. "Interesting friends you have (Y/n)." Crystal laughs. "Merely acquaintances," Loki says, and you hear even more glass break, "OH GODDAMMIT." You shake your head, hearing him set even more glass on the table. "That's alright," Crystal says to Loki, "Its all old anyways." "Yeah... That's Loki." You say, and Crystal nods. "Is that a cat?" You hear him say. "Loki, don't touch the..." You begin, and decide to end it when you hear more glass breaking and a cat squealing. Loki walks into the entryway to the kitchen, and has a few scratch marks basically all over. "I touched it..." He says, half smiling.

Finally Loki has calmed down, and you have occupied him with a Rubix Cube in the now destroyed living room. You walk back to the kitchen table and sit next to Crystal. "Sorry, I have no idea what has gotten into him, he is usually decently normal and now..." "Don't worry about it. Boys will be boys." She says. "I AM A GOD!" Loki yells from the other room. "OKAY THANK YOU LOKI! Well anyways..." You begin. "Black Bird, I need to tell you something," Crystal says, casting her eyes down to the table, "Alone." "Oh alright." You say. You follow Crystal down the hall into one of the guest bedrooms. You sit on the end of the bed, and she joins you. "I should have told you this a long time ago. Yet I didn't." She says, her blue eyes piercing through you. "I always knew what you were, and I never told you because... I thought if you didn't know it wouldn't show." She says. You stare at the quilt you are sitting on, picking at one of the crocheted flowers. "Your mother," She says, placing her hand on your knee. "You have always known she died during childbirth. Well. She didn't exactly. Just die." "What happened?" You ask, looking back to Crystal. "You killed her." She finishes. Your mouth drops, and your eyes fill with tears. "W-What?" You ask, looking Crystal straight in the eye. "HOW!" You yell. "It doesn't" "HOW!" You yell louder. "You were a feral child when you were born. The doctors held you, and they dressed you in your first clothes. Then you lashed out. Your nails scratched her, you were demonic." She says. You shake your head, trying to say it all wasn't real. But it is. "H-How did I get this way?" You ask her. You stood away from the bed, looking at the liar in front of you. "I'm not telling you that." She says, looking at you with worry. "Oh yes you will." You say. Anger welling up inside you. You were going to burst, painfully. You felt the lumps form on your shoulder blades when it happened. Your jet black wings, emerged and filled the small room. "(Y/n)!" Crystal screams. "YOU WILL TELL ME!" You yell hysterically. "I CURSED YOUR MOTHER! I CURSED HER BEFORE CONCEPTION!" She yells. You raise your wings higher. "YOU WITCH! WHY!" You scream, you lungs hurt from all of the commotion. "BECAUSE I NEEDED A WEAPON!" She screams. You stop. Your mind going blank. You lower your wings "A weapon.." You say. "But I will always love you (Y/n) no matter what." She says. "I'm an experiment..." You say, drawing your wings back in. "Just an... object." You say falling to your knees. "No, (Y/n). You're a warrior." She says, kneeling next to you. "You made this monster." You say. "What?" Crystal asks, standing up yet again. "So you will deal with it." You say, looking up to her.
