With a light thunk the God and two girls would land,wooden planks beneath their feet. Taka made a sound of pain as she fell foreward only a liittle before Gata caught her. 'Now where are we?' Gata muttered lightly wrinkling her nose at the smell of fish while taking a quick glance around. They appeared to be on some sort of warf,luckily it was late enough that no one had even noticed three people appear out of thin air. There was still quite a lot of people still milling around for this time of night,almost as if they had no where better to be. Glancing out at the inky water,Gata made out a rocky mass in the middle of the bay, there were bright security lights surrounding the building that sat in the center of it-the longer she stared at it, the more familiar it became. Squinting her eyes she'd frown, she knew that formation even though she had never visited the place herself,it was famous enough. She then glanced a little past it and saw the all too iconic bridge-even in the darkness she now knew where they were. Spinning back to Gata she scowled darkly. 'Really? Really Taka? San-Fucking-sisco?' 'I'm hungry, they have the best corn dogs in the world.' Taka smiled weakly, she was in no condition to eat though. 'Do you even have any money?' 'I've got my-" Taka went to grab her side and frowned. 'My bag is gone!' Where had she last seen it? In the field, when Loki first attacked her, it was likely laying there getting muddy, and her writing was getting ruined. 'I still have this though' She pulled her phone from her pocket, only to have Gata knock it out of her hand swiftly. The pink glitter studded phone skittered across the wood before slipping between the planks and ending with a definate splash as it hit the water beneath. 'I could have used that for money.' 'And those men could have used it to track you.' Taka wanted to argue with Gata but instead pouted.'And now we're stuck in a foreign country with no money or ID' Slowly Gata stood,ignoring taka before turning her gaze to the suspeciously silent God. It was plain on his face that he was disgusted to be surrounded by so many humans. Moving, he'd not get anywhere before Gata grabbed his arm to stop him. 'Get your hand off of me.' his mood darkened as her grip only tightened and she refused to back down. 'Your not going anywhere.' She'd not show any fear she may have. 'And your going to stop me?' He replied as a playful smirk shadowed his face,knowing that he could easily over power he wanted to. Gata still had no clue as to what was happening, other then it lead her friend into this man's path. She didn't trust him,any of it,and as long as Taka was in the condition she was, she needed to stay close. Sadly, that ment she had to deal with Loki, for she was certain he had plans that would lead to the death of her friend. 'Gata.' Taka would breath, moving shakily to stand between the pair, placing a hand on both of them. Both tried to ignore her, but their gazes moved away from each other when she made a sound of pain, leaning against Gata slightly. 'I don't feel good.' She whimpered trembling violently and then toppling back into Loki. Holding her upright as if she had a disease,Loki frowned darkly. Taka was well beyond her limits and they all knew it. Taka closed her eyes with another soft moan, 'Loki's warm.' she whispered before falling into a deep sleep. The pair with here took a moment to look at the strange scene-only Taka would be able to fall asleep leaning against a man who wanted her dead. However, this also brought up another concern. They all needed a place to rest,to think, and Gata wanted to get Taka away from the God as soon as possible. She debated trying to carry her friend but knew that she wasn't strong enough to get very far and it might draw more attention to herself then she cared. Growling,she'd look around, where were they even going to go? she wanted to strangle her friend-maybe after a hot shower. Loki sighed deeply as he hoisted the girl using him as a bed into his arms, with little care, as her head hung over his arm. Gata pushed it to rest against the crook of his arm so that her friend woudn't wake with a sore neck, and so that it wouildn't look like Taka was dead. She then gave Loki a dark look. 'Don't.' 'What?' 'That.' He'd glare at her,clearly thinking she was a moron. Gata knew that he was planning something, what,she didn't know, but she had to make sure he didn't follow threw with it. 'Do you always forget how to speak more then one word at a time when your friend falls unconcious?' he mocked her. 'No.' Gata grabbed him by the elbow, trying to lead him out of the shadows but he'd yank away from her. 'Stop that!' 'No!' She'd give him a dark glare, her layered hair often in high pig-tails gave her the appearance of having cat ears. And thanks to the pop and dirt and grease in her hair, the 'ears' looked as if they were flat back in anger. It was the first thing that really stuck out about the dark haired girl, and had she been spliced with a cat her tail would be swishing dangerously. Looping an arm around his, she'd pull him closer and out of the shadows, making it appear as if they were far more friendly then they were. Taka gave a soft moan, her stones pulsed brightly, almost in warning for the pair to stop being rough. The pair paused and the stone fell dorment once more. That was very interesting, as it seemed to react all on its own-Taka was clearly too deeply asleep to have caused its reaction. This worried Gata more. How-and why was it reacting to them? Was it? Was she reading into it too much? Shivering, she'd scowl at Loki before leading him off along the dock towards what could be the street and away from the crowds. It wouldn't be too long before she found what she was looking for, ignoring a group of young girls openinly gushing over the dark sexy man with her. Loki would also ignore them, which only added fuel to their fire. Moving away further, Gata would finally stop infront of the bank machine and whip out her wallet before proceeding to pay retarded high fee's and then drain her bank account. She'd been saving up for over a year for a trip but this was more important and having cash was easier to disappear with then a paper trail. She then pulled out her own phone,pulling the chip and battery ot before tossing them in a trash-she wanted to keep the phone but for now plan on getting a disposable one. She would spot a pay phone, that some how still had its phone book attached and moved over to it, noting the God was starting to get annoyed at the silent treatment he was receiving from her. 'Do you intend to ignore me now?' He got no answer. She wasn't ignoring him,far from it. but she had no intentions of announcing her every move to him, not while she was at a disadvantage on things. Thumbing threw the book, she'd be looking for hostels or B&B's. Some place that likely wouldn't need a credit card. She scanned the pages, soon feeling frusterated and ready to simply toss the book at the man when her eyes landed upon what she'd been looking for. She'd then shut the book and face Loki quite suddenly, a look of determination in her eyes. 'Take us to Fir Friends Hide Away.' 'The Hell I will.' he snarled back, shifting the woman in his arms,pulling her closer to his body. 'I am Loki of Asgard and I will not take orders from some simpleton.' He snapped harshly. Gata would reply with a simple smile, one that some found unnerving and it was on that promised pain..some times rape, though that was only under special conditions. 'Give' she'd hold a hand out at him, it almost looked cute, Loki simply stared at her even more annoyed. Neither was willing to bend to the other,the tension was thick between the two strong wills.
'Marbles' Taka mummbled,rolling over to snuggle against the God's chest with a happy smile. Gata would move to grip the back of her friend's shirt,intending to take her from Loki-who would step away and then they were engulfed by a green light. the trio would no longer be on a busy down town street, but a more quiet neighbourhood far from where they had been yet in the same city. Towering over them would be a victorian style building with the name of the B&B decorated on the front of it. 'Was that Really all that difficult.' 'I will enjoy watching you die in a vat of your own misery.' Shrugging, Gata smiled as she gripped his arm and lead him into the building. Inside smelt like mildew and dust and held an air of everything being old. Stepping up to the desk, Gata noted a small man, smaller then her it seemed. He looked to be mostly blind but smiled warmly as he sensed the arrival of guests. 'Nice evening tonight.' he spoke with a quiet shakey voice but he had a look of defiance in his eyes that said he'd not let his condition slow him down. Smiling politely Gata would rest her hands neatly on the desk. 'My friends and I were wondering if you had a couple of rooms availble tonight.' 'Well...' The man would flip threw a log book. There wasn't a computer to be seen anywhere,in fact, no electronics. 'I have one that has two adjoining bedrooms.' 'We'll Take it.' 'Wait-' Loki went to protest but Gata ignored him. 'Is it just for tonight?' 'No...' 'could we let you know in the morning, we've had a long day.' Gata asked sweetly. 'Of course my dear.' 'thank you.' 'That'll be $85 and some change.' Gata gave the man the money and smiled. once the exchange was done,the man would escort the trio up to the top of the building-Gata would already be scouting an escape route as they walked up the narrow staircase. She wished that Taka was concious, though waking her could prove dangerous as well. Inside the first room, Loki would drop Taka onto the bed with no ceremony or care. Growling darkly,Gata moved over to the man and began to push him away from her unconcious friend. She hadn't wanted him around when she was awake, she certainly didn't want Loki trying to influence her friend while Taka slept. "What do you think your doing?' Loki growled pushing the woman away from him. 'Get out of my room!' She snapped back. He'd smirk at her, leaning foreward just a little. 'I will enjoy your pain the most.' he promised in a soft purr, looking down at her. 'If we're lucky, you'll be kidnapped in the night and gone by morning.' She shot back before slamming the adjoining door in the man's face,not giving him the chance to respond and not caring if she hurt him. She didin't doubt that had he wanted to, he could break the door down but she heard him walk away and she'd huff. Slowly, she'd move back to the bed, and sat on the end of it while never letting her gaze leave the doors. At some point in the night,Gata had managed a quick shower,with the bathroom door open so that she could hear Taka if she woke up, thankfully she didn't and nothing else seemed to have happened in her absense. So she would return to her post, and wait...
Her stomach growling angerly pulled Taka from the depths of her dreamless sleep. The room was dark but she knew that the certains were drawn,keeping the sun from invading,though a small sliver was trying to creep its way across the room. 'Gata?' She croaked, slowly sitting up, her body was in so much pain. How long had she been out? It was likely a while from how angry her body was. She'd look around when her friend didn't immediately appear from some hidden place. The front door of the room was open,just a crack and light from the hall seeped in. Come to think of it,where were they? Taka didn't have long to ponder that as she heard voices from the otherside of the door-and they were growing louder. Moving as quietly as she could muster,she'd pull the door sloly open, just enough to peek a part of her head out it-leaning further out when she heard Gata. What she saw, was more terrifying then she could have imagined. Gata stood in the hall, just infront of the door with her back to it, her grip on Loki was unrelenting. He,did notice her without moving anything more then his eyes. several feet away was Captain America and Thor. Taka's eyes widened as she yelped,tumbling back and slammed the door shut. 'Taka!' Gata spun and called, startled slightly by the girl. The door was locked,she hadn't ment to lock it, but as she moved away from the door her stone burned against her skin. 'Taka! Open this door! please!' 'NO!" Taka was half way out the window when the connecting door flew open. She'd glance back to see Gata rushing at her with a rather pissed off expression. She''d grab Taka by the foot,causing the blonde to lose her grip and land at an undesireable angle out the window. Gata's grip now shifted to to keep Taka from falling , she was hanging upside down outside of the building with nothing but cement below.'Let go! let go! let go!' Taka flailed, the last thing she wanted was to be around either of the men outside. 'No. Stop squirming!' 'I don't wanna!' 'Taka!' This was bad. Taka was in full blown panic mode, and that made something simple into something dangerous. 'Its scary!' taka had her eyes closed tight. 'It hurts!' She'd kick out at her friend, and despite trying Gata ended up losing her grip. With a scream,Taka balled herself as best she could as fell-if she angled her landing she'd just break bones instead of death. She'd be waiting for the pain, but she only felt arms around her. Trembling and curling up some more, she'd not look, she didn't want to look. she was dead, so dead! 'Taka!' Gata would sound out of breath as she came running from the building, a small crowd had begun to gather. 'Are you alright?' Taka shook her head violently-no,no she was not, and she wouldn't reconize the male voice who had asked her. There would be a pause, and slowly she'd crack ope an eye and looked up into a gold and red face plate-she'd squeek, eyes widening and a small blush across her face. 'She's fine.' Gata would try to help Taka down from Iron man's arms-who seemed to ignore the rest of the men when they approached from the building. Taka would move to hide behind her friend,who was at least a foot shorter than she. 'Your welcome by the way.' Ironman huffed a little. 'Oh, she's grateful' Gata offered, perferring to stay between the men and Taka, though she'd keep a grip on her friend expecting her to flee again. She could feel Taka's pulse racing and worried that her friend might have a heart attack. 'Gata...whats happening?' 'That's what we'd like to know.' Ironman replied turning his comment to Captain America. 'All Fury told me was that two girls had been taken hostage by Loki.' 'Loki?' Ironman turned back to the friends,Taka shrunk back, Gata's grip tigthening even more. 'Loki?' taka whimpered. 'I have him.' thor declared as he forcefully lead the other God out of the building by the scruff of his neck. 'Good. Now let's finish this' Ironman turned to the Gods, armor powering up. 'NO!' Taka managed to poof in front of Loki, eyes glowing green. 'Don't touch him!' She growled as a wave of magic pulsed from her, pushing thor away as she held a hand out attack the other men. 'Taka!' Gata moved,almost in time with Captain America,who brough his shield down to deflect the attack, up and into the sky harmlessly. Gata pulled Taka behind her, and growled at her friend. 'Calm down!' she breathed harshly. 'What the hell was that?' Ironman snapped back. Loki was hardly able to contain his amusement. 'Well,that was fun. what's next?' 'Shut up,Loki' Gata snapped, this time she wouldn't let Taka out of her grip. She needed to get Taka to calm down and right now, it looked impossible.'Back the hell off!' Taka snapped as her gaze turned to Ironman. 'Sorry, I don't listen to people who just tried to blow me up.' 'Then don't try killing what's mine!' she snapped, the gems pulsing brightly as if waiting to strike again. There would be a pause, eyes on both her and Loki-Taka was making the situation worse, and she didn't seem to realize it. At least no one was trying to presently kill them,though that only worried Gata more.
Thor would seem to break the tension for the moment, 'My brother finally found a mate!" Gata,Taka,and Loki all gave Thor the same dark look and in unison sppoke 'No!' 'Then she controls you?' Captain asked.'No one controls me.' Loki spat back. 'Then why do you hide behind two girls?' Ironman added. 'I'm right here.' Loki taunted. 'let's take this off the street.' Captain offered as he noticed the growing crowd and the video and pictures that were being takne. 'I'm not going going with any of you.' Taka shifted back, the stones glowed bright-she was now vaguely aware that it wasn't Loki controlling her. While she had slept, a voice had reassured her that she was safe,that the power came from within. She didn't know anything more, and she didn't want to be trapped-like this. 'Taka-'please' 'By all means, your free to go then,' Ironman swept an arm out as if allowing passage. Taka's eyes snapped back to their normal lavender ones as the stones faded once more. 'Really?' She'd sound innocently hopeful. Loki would lean down to whisper in her ear. 'I think that's called sarcasm.' 'What? that's not very nice of him.' She'd pout at Ironman. 'Erm...' the armored man glanced to Captain America who ignored him. Gata reconized the oppertunith to try and safe them from any more trouble. She'd move, slowly with her hands up to show that she had no intentions of fighting. 'Listen. Taka, I'm sure didn't mean any of this. To attaack you.' She'd glance to Thor. 'Twice. but we know nothing more of what's going on then you do.' she'd pause as Taka moved again, but she'd only be standing closer to Loki, and made Gata increasingly nervous. 'Why are you keeping company with someone like Loki.' Captain America asked, between the men, he seemed most willing to listen. 'Not to mention, he's a killer and she's giving off energy like nothing on this planet.' Ironman added. Gata glanced to Taka, frowning in an accusing manner, now wasn't the time for that. 'Ignoring the fact that he's here, would you think any different?' 'presently. no.' Taka made a sound as she looked like she might cry at ironman's cold reply. 'She's unstable.' he added. movement caused Taka to growl and tense. 'They're both a danger' came another man's voice, walking threw the crowd came a dark skinned man in black clothes and an eye patch covering one eye. Taka narrowed her eyes then moved to the other side of Loki. 'Why's there a priate here?' she whispered. Loki frowned watching her and gained a huffy look back, to which he just rolled his eyes. 'Director Fury.' Captain America would straighten slightly. 'We've got this under control Fury.' Ironman tried to dismiss the man. 'Oh, you do,do you? You just stated yourself that she was unstable. Do you think you can protect these people if she snaps again?' 'I think we can handle her.' 'Then handle her.' Gata would take the chance to move slowly back into Taka and Loki. 'And what about him?' Fury directed about the God. 'We kicked his ass last time.' 'Your arrogance is going to get you killed one day,stark.' 'I don't want Iron man dead!' Taka squeeked and then hid behind Loki when all eyes moved back to her. 'She doesn't want to hurt anyone.' Gata spoke up,she wasn't watching the group but the crowd, they were in more danger than Taka knew. 'Tell that to Thor-she attacked him unprovoked. or the people in the hotels. Thankfully only one person was injured. but Taka Gallagher is a threat to us all while lose like this.' 'How do you know my name?' Taka peered around Loki again, trembling against him was making him uncomfortable. She was terrified,it was apparent. The man smirked, though it wasn't a reaction that left a good feeling in one's stomach. Gata grabbed Loki's sleeve, she knew what was coming. Iron man took note and in a blink of an eye he was hurtling himself at the trio.
An unsual green flash would blind everyone on the street, destroying all electronics with small explosions. But when the world regained normal colour, the trio and iron Man would be no where to be seen. No trace of where they were sent.
