Janna returned from her building jumping excursion and looked around the room for Loki and Osborn.
She hated herself...why was it suddenly now that her conscience was speaking to her? Doom was evil, he killed people, kills people, but she still loved that kiss... Suddenly she was thinking the same way about Loki, that he was evil.
Janna shook her head at her thoughts. Loki wasn't truly evil, just lost and confused...
Janna's mind wouldn't shut up. Well, at least she wasn't Banner...maybe she could shoot herself...
Loki was in a spare bedroom looking at the scepter.
He was angry when he found out Janna was gone, but he actually wasn't sure why.
Janna would normally want dinner by this point...but she wasn't hungry. She noticed Doom sitting on a couch and tried walking past him silently. She could have turned invisible, but by the time she spotted him, he could have already seen her.
She headed towards the library. She felt eyes on her as she crossed the room, but she ignored them, or tried. Her heart still jumped, and she cursed herself for it.
Doom wanted to kiss her again, but he could feel the tension.
He could wait a while longer.
Janna found the library and started searching through the books. She looked through the books and found one she knew. She was a little amazed it was here...it wasn't a book she expected to find.
She pulled it out and took a seat to start reading it. If anybody needed her they could come find her...except for Victor...she might just try to run away...
Janna kept trying to read her book. She loved that book, but she just couldn't get into it. Her mind wouldn't let her. It kept going back to Loki, Doom, Caroline, and Thor.
She couldn't stand it. She stood up and threw the book into her seat. She stormed back into the room where she had tried to avoid Doom.
"Why the hell did you do that?" She was referring to the kiss of course.
Doom shrugged.
"Why not do it? Did it disappoint you?"
He knew it didn't but he was curious to why she seemed so bothered.
"Because you're a villain! You kill people..." She screamed the first sentence but mumbled the second.
Janna wouldn't humor him with an answer to his second question.
"That is my way."
Doom didn't even deny it.
"Is that what's troubling you?"
He patted the spot next to him on the couch.
Part of her really wanted to go sit down. But that small sane part of Janna wouldn't let her. She didn't move from her spot.
"You kill and you don't even care." She spoke softly.
"And? You betrayed your friends and allies. Are you so much better than me?"
Doom seemed partly amused at Janna's attempt to make herself better.
"What do you want me to tell you?"
"At least they're alive. And they can still come kick your ass." Janna wanted to scream. She wanted to scream and make all her past idiotic choices go away.
"I've not done anything to physically harm them...seriously harm them..." She whispered as she turned to run from the room.
"Still, mental scars are worse than physical ones at times."
Doom didn't want to harass her so roughly, but it was hard for him sometimes.
Janna wished she could run away from it. She wished there were something else to do to take her mind away from it. She could have Peter catch her again...but she doubted it would help.
Down time gave her mind a chance to think...that's why she was always moving. That's why she never settled down, so her mind could not do its thing.
She found her way to a bathroom and she locked herself inside. She sat down in the corner and pulled her knees to her. She wrapped her arms around her legs and she buried her face in them. She didn't cry, just sat there breathing heavily.
Doom let her think; it would probably be good for her.
Loki laid his scepter down and left his room.
He made sure the door was secure before he made it to the bathroom.
He had heard the door shut and thought Doom was up to trouble again.
"Open up."
He didn't think it was Janna.
"Leave me alone." Janna snapped.
She didn't move.
"Wench?" Loki was surprised to hear her voice.
"I said go away." She lifted her head to say it.
Loki growled. "Open the door."
"No." Janna laid her head back down.
"What will make you open the door?" Loki needed to speak with her, but about what he didn't know.
"Not you." She grumbled quietly. Janna did slightly like the fact that he actually asked...
"Then whom?" Loki was losing patience.
Janna sat there silently. Peter maybe, Caroline, Tony. She'd open up for any of them.
Loki waited a moment and gave up.
When she was ready, he would want that explanation.
Loki went back to his room to brood.
His thoughts on Thor were making him pissy.
Even Doom was keeping his distance.
It was kind of a good thing Janna was crazy, and might have ADHD... It made her mind race really fast, and in a way, helped her get over things faster.
She sat there with her eyes closed and her face buried in her arms. She started to realize that there was nothing she could do about the past, so she should get over it. She could have her fun hanging out with the villains, and if a fight came up, which one undoubtedly would, she could make sure none of the heroes or villains got mortally wounded...
She liked the kiss with Doom...whether he kills people or not. And if she were around, she could keep him from killing... And that included keeping Loki from actually killing too...
And jumping off a building didn't even compare to that kiss... It was only afterwards she felt bad, because she felt guilty...
Well Janna wouldn't feel that way anymore. She wouldn't let those things get to her anymore. She usually didn't care what others thought of her, so why should she care what the Avengers and Fan 4 thought of her? She wouldn't let them get seriously hurt, and that's all that really mattered to her.
Let them believe she betrayed them.
Let them think she was evil. In many ways she was.
It was a couple hours before she finally left the room. She opened the door and stepped out. Where was she going..?
Janna walked to the room where she usually would find everyone. She headed through the doorway.
Doom was sitting on the couch and noticed Janna with a smile. "Feeling better?"
"Much." Janna smiled and used a force field to push him off the couch.
Doom was a bit curious at what she was playing.
He wasn't one who took teasing lightly. He moved to his feet and stood.
Janna walked up to Doom and used a couple force fields as steps so she was as tall as him. She placed both her hands on his face and pulled him to her. She kissed him roughly. Doom was certainly surprised, but he welcomed the kiss; he much rather kiss Janna than fight with her.
Janna moved her hand from his face and rested her arms on his shoulders. Her force field had lowered itself and she was standing on the ground again as her lips covered his. Doom rested his hands on her lower back and pulled her closer. He was hoping she didn't decide to jump from a building this time.
Doom decided to be a little daring; he moved his hands lower and did a trick with his tongue that made most women very happy. Janna was much enjoying his kiss, but she still didn't like how quick he was to move on...
She moved her left hand down his arm to raise it again. A slight movement of her right hand to his neck and a flick of her elbow created a force field that raised his other hand.
Doom released her from the kiss. "To soon?"
Janna pouted. "Didn't I lock myself in a bathroom for hours...shortly after I kissed you and jumped from a building? Shouldn't that tell you something?"
"I suppose." He kissed her again, not really in the mood for talking.
Janna just smirked and let him. Doom pulled Janna flush against him, but kept his hands on her back. He kissed her roughly, and hoped she could keep up. It took a lot, but Janna did fight back, her breathing erratic. Doom smiled against her lips and did that trick again. He was enjoying this immensely.
Janna felt so much better now. She loved it, but she knew Doom was enjoying it to. She couldn't just make it easy for him and let him have it.
After a few more moments, and after reconsidering her decision after his 'trick', she finally pulled away.
"What's the matter?"
Doom didn't want or mean to sound breathy as he talked.
He kept his arms around Janna, keeping her close to him.
"Nothing. I just remember that someone was being a bit pissy about talking to me earlier."
"So shall you release me, or will I have to make you?" She grinned evilly.
Doom chuckled and released her.
His eyes were glazed over in lust, and his breath was a bit ragged.
"If you're finished, then I see no reason to continue for now."
Janna gave him one last kiss, and tugged at his lower lip as she pulled away and turned to leave.
Doom tried to make that last kiss last. He smiled and sat back down on the couch.
"Thank you." Janna left.
Doom sighed and smirked.
"Not bad..."
Janna headed out to find Loki. She asked the butler where he was and found the room. Janna walked up into the doorway.
"Knock knock." Janna said tapping the doorframe then walking into the room.
"What is it?"
Loki stared at the ceiling.
"Um...weren't you the one being pissy about talking to me?" She walked up to the bed.
He leaned up and sighed.
"I thought you might enlighten me to your whereabouts."
He looked at her disheveled state and thought about asking about it.
"Um...I'm right here." She said, knowing that he meant earlier. "Earlier, the washroom...before that jumping from a building...and before that sitting on the balcony."
She refrained from mentioning Doom at the moment. She'd rather him catch her, than tell him.
"Jumping? I figured you to be the cheerful sort." he said sarcastically.
Loki stood from his bed and looked at her closely.
Janna shrugged. "I thought it'd be fun."
"But it wasn't. Not as fun as..." Janna smiled.
"As?" Loki knew he'd regret asking, but his curiosity out did his common sense.
Janna sat down on the edge of the bed. She wasn't sure if she wanted to tell him. So she would, sort of.
"Doom."
"Doom?"
Loki was confused about what she meant.
"You thought Doom was entertaining?"
He didn't connect the disheveled appearance to make out time.
"Yes. He's good." Janna sighed while leaning back and lying down.
"Good?"
Loki tilted his head to the side.
He didn't mean to show this innocent side of himself, but he still didn't understand completely.
Janna just smiled at looked up at him.
"Mhmm." A part of her wondered if Loki could compare.
"What have you done?" Knowing Janna has a devious side, Loki was afraid she did something to Doom to make him quit the bargain.
"Nothing!" Janna said innocently. "He started it..."
Which he had...the first time.
"Started?"
Loki was even more confused than ever.
"What could you have started with Doom that was 'fun'?"
Did he really not get it? It made Janna like him more. He killed 80 people in 2 days but he couldn't figure out that Doom had kissed her...and then she pretty much made-out with him...?
"Again, HE started it. He kissed me first." She lay there and crossed her arms over her chest like a stubborn child.
"Kissed you?"
Loki sat there opening and closing his mouth like a child that just had the talk.
"And you...enjoyed it."
The thought of them made Loki have male thoughts, and he was very uncomfortable.
Janna sighed and nodded. She still just lay there with her legs hanging over the edge of the bed. She was in a daze like a love-struck yearling.
Loki didn't know why, but he stared at her sitting on what was his bed, for the time being.
He swallowed a lump in his throat and he turned his eyes from her.
"Well what are your plans with Doom?"
"Plans? Um...none?" Janna rested her hands across her stomach.
"Why? Are you worrying about mortals having sex again?" She silently laughed. His expression when she explained the 'in his pants' expression to Loki was priceless.
"I've never concerned myself with the intimate encounters of mortals."
Loki was shocked at himself that he had in fact thought of having Janna, but he wasn't going to let her know any of that.
"You should be more focused."
He was speaking to not only her, but himself as well.
This time, Janna did laugh. "Me, focused? Now you must be dreaming."
She didn't really care about what he had to say before that. Janna continued to lay there until Loki decided to ask her to leave...
Loki figured this was where the conversation would turn.
He glanced over at the scepter, hoping it would distract him.
He was curious if Osborn could really do what he claimed.
Janna turned her head to the side and saw Loki's boots. They were some snazzy boots...so she said so.
"Those are some snazzy boots..." She was wondering if she should steal one.
"What?" Loki looked at Janna like she was insane.
Janna poked the nearest boot. "They're pretty cool..." She was insane.
"Is this some sort of innuendo?" Loki was a bit wary of her; he supposed that's why he kept her around.
"Typical man..." Janna mumbled and rolled to her side away from him. She didn't want the boot anymore...
Loki made a confused face. "I am not a mortal male. I am the God of Mischief."
Janna smiled at that. "But you're built the same way."
She thought about it for a moment. Was he? Thor sure, but him? He was technically a frost giant...dwarf though he may be... Janna giggled.
"Does my anatomy make you laugh?" Loki didn't mean to make it so dirty sounding.
"No. I just remembered that you're technically a dwarf frost giant." She kept herself from giggling again. "And I was thinking physiology. Not anatomy."
"How do..."
Loki stood from his spot.
"How do you know such a detail of my past?"
"Still...they do look quite human..." Janna started rambling to herself. "But they live in such a cold place with little clothing..."
She ignored Loki's question for the moment. Now he was asking her how she knew 'details'? Wow.
"Do not ignore me."
Loki was tired of the games.
""How do you know such things?"
She turned to face him.
"I see things, Laufeyson." Janna said mysteriously.
Loki was superstitious.
"You know his...do not say that name again."
Loki turned away from her.
"Why not?" Janna got up and stood behind him.
"You ask too many questions."
Loki glanced at the scepter and then back at Janna.
"Laufeyson." Janna looked up at him to see what, if anything, he would do about it.
"Do not tempt me." Loki's voice was calm, but he was losing patience.
"Seriously. You claim you don't like Odin because he's not your real father. But you can't stand it when I call you Laufeyson?"
"I was never doted on by either father." Loki wondered why the girl was so concerned about his past.
"Well yeah...your real father left you out in the snow to freeze to death or starve...if frost giants can freeze..." Janna again thought Loki could use a hug...
"Thank you for reminding me of my horrible infancy." Loki said sarcastically.
"You're welcome." Janna knew he was being sarcastic, but she said it anyway and leaned in to give him that hug.
Loki sighed and rolled his eyes.
There was no dealing with Janna when she was set on something.
"But Odin took you in and raised you. He saved your life. Would you rather have died?" She continued to hug him.
Loki didn't answer.
Janna released him and began to leave the room.
"One day you'll come to see how foolish you've been. And if it's too long before you ask for forgiveness, they'll have none of it. And they'll kill you." Janna walked off with her head down.
