Okay, so I took this down and decided to repost it because I was disappointed by what I had posted and wanted to fix it. On that note, here is the revised chapter 13.
AN: Sorry I took so long with this, I know I said I would have it out sooner, but my life turned into a mess, family issues and my dog got fleas again anyway, to explain part of the previous chapter, Loki is in fact married; he was in mythology as well, I'm just planning to write a Loki/OC story in the future and planned to have it tie into this as well.
Chapter Thirteen: Loki's Defeat
"Guys?" Natasha questions.
The group looks to the portal as they see two more snake like creatures emerging from it before turning to Steve.
"Call it, Captain."
"Alright, listen up. Until we can close that portal up there, we're gonna use containment. Barton, I want you on that roof, eyes on everything. Call out patterns and strays. Stark, you got the perimeter. Anything gets more than three blocks out, you turn it back or your turn it to ash." Steve commands.
"Wanna give me a lift?" Barton asks Stark.
"Right. Better clench up, Legolas." Tony warns before grabbing him by the shoulders and taking off.
"Thor, you've gotta try and bottleneck that portal, slow them down. You've got the lightning, light the bastards up."
Looking around at Anna, Bucky, and Natasha, Steve nods, "We stay here on the ground, keep the fighting here. And Hulk (Steve points to Hulk) smash!"
The Hulk grins in response and jumps off to attack the aliens on the buildings.
"Are you sure you're alright Angel?" Steve questions.
"No worries babe, I can take whatever these freaks dish out."
"Babe?" Bucky questions while taking down the nearest alien.
"No worries big brother, just a little pet name!" Anna shouts from the other side of the bridge while fighting off a shield wielding alien.
After taking out most of the aliens on the bridge only to have them replaced by more, Natasha turns to Steve, "Captain, none of this is gonna mean a damn thing if we don't close that portal."
"Our biggest guns couldn't touch it." Steve warns.
"Well, maybe it's not about guns." Natasha replies while sharing a look with Anna before looking to Stark tower.
"You wanna get up there, you're gonna need a ride."
"I got a ride. I could use a boost though." Natasha says after looking at the aliens flying over on their crafts.
"I'll go ahead, try and clear a path." Anna informs before spreading her wings and beginning to hover before taking off at a nod of approval from both Bucky and Steve.
"Are you sure about this?" Steve wonders, watching Anna leaving before getting his shield ready to give Natasha a boost.
"Yeah, it's gonna be fun." Natasha assures before she runs at him, using a nearby car as a boost before launching off Steve's shield and grabbing onto the bottom of an alien craft.
Anna quickly attracts the attention of several aliens and has to weave between buildings in order to escape their weapons. "Hey Clint, I could use a little cover, if you're not too busy."
"I've got your back Anna."
Anna soon reaches the Stark building and sees Loki stand only to get slammed into by the Hulk and hit the fireplace. She stands by the window and watches the action.
"Enough! You are all of you beneath me! I am God, you dull creature, and I will not be bullied by..." Loki starts, only to be cut off by the Hulk swinging him around the room and bashing him into the floor.
"Puny God." Hulk states as he walks toward the balcony, nodding as he passes Anna.
"Did you really think that you could win this fight? Humans are much more resilient than you anticipated." She asks a stunned Loki.
Loki groans softly in response.
"Would you like to know why I knew your plans Loki? Your wife showed me, you see we met many years ago, when she came to visit Earth and we became friends. She sent me a vision of your plans. Of course she knew because of the connection between your minds. She wants to save you Loki, why won't you let her? Why did you leave her, all alone, to raise your child? [Loki seems to snap out of his stunned state and turns his head to stare at her with wide eyes] She never told you, not even through your mental link…maybe she wanted you to choose to come back to her because of your love for her, not out of duty for your child. She can save you Loki, and for your sake I hope you let her."
Anna then walks over to the bar and sits down on a bar stool.
She watches from the window as the team continues to fight and worries for Tony as he passes through the portal.
When the team enters the penthouse and stands around Loki, Anna stands between Steve and Bucky, right behind Hawkeye.
"If it's all the same to you, I'll have that drink now." Loki states, causing Anna to smirk and shake her head.
AN: okay guys, not that much changed but I like this one much better. I hope to have the final chapter up soon, I might make a sequel, I might not, who knows.
