Being around all these humans was making Loki terribly uncomfortable. Especially when even the older women would stare at him with lust and surprisingly so did the younger teenage ones. He was glad once Thor was in the picture (for once) there infatuations went elsewhere, to Thor's muscle's especially. He kept a watchful eye on Darcy for there seemed to be a few drunkards looming around the place, the smell of the poor drinks wafting off of them made Loki gag constantly. He was glad when they had stepped out of the line and had retrieved their food and drink, not that he would call it that. Darcy called one thing ''popcorn'' which he rather liked because of the salt.
Darcy lingered closer to him as the drunken people stumbled their way closer to her shouting things that they could barely understand. They both watched as Agent Taylor stepped slightly infront of them both with his muscle's tense, though soon the security threw all the drunk 20 year old's out.
''I know them...'' Darcy muttered to her group or mostly herself crossly. Watching as they stumbled across the rode near the theatre. They all gave her concerned looks and Jane's eyebrow was raised.
''What exactly did you get up to in high-school Darcy?'' Jane asked shaking her head at the younger girl. To Loki's surprise a blush spread it's way onto her face though she shrugged and looked slyly at Jane. ''Nothing you didn't do, by the way your ex called me today on my phone but I didn't answer it, you know he's been saying he wants to get back with you for one more round if you know what I mean.''
Jane shot her a death glare as Thor seemed to straighten up at this looking angry as hell. In fact his glare was directed at Darcy instead this time which had rarely happened unless it was a friendly glare, but his blue sharp eyes told her otherwise and the fun teddy bear suddenly didn't seem so cuddly anymore, especially with those muscles. She stepped back a little into Loki's chest, knowing his head was right above her own and she also saw Agent Taylor watch them cautiously. Darcy saw Loki's hand move a little in a convincing manner.
''Thor...'' He warned the blonde. ''Now, calm down...''
Loki's green stern eyes held Thor's own blue ones before Darcy's eyes she saw Thor turn into his old self and the glare from his eyes turn back to the (almost) friendly ones she knew, relaxing a little she realized something just as they were escorted to seats in the cinema up the back. Agent Taylor sat away from them and before Darcy could ask if he wanted to sit with them she felt Loki's hand pressing into her lower back guiding her into the seat next to the wall with him separating her from Thor who sat beside Jane and himself.
Darcy was considering laughing out loud already. This was so strange, hardly anyone would guess she was sitting with two God's from Asgard who had killed hundreds of people in battle and one of which was sentenced to stay with Jane and herself for punishment because he sent a destroyer out to kill his brother. The ad's began to start and the sound of people chewing popcorn faded as the voice over's took over. Darcy leaned against her seat looking at Loki accusingly, unfortunately his eyes were too wide looking at the huge screen and trailers within it to notice.
''You used magic on him, didn't you?'' Darcy whispered, keeping her eyes fixated on the screen while glancing back at Loki for his reaction. Surprisingly he swallowed thickly, glancing at her for a milisecond before rolling his eyes.
''Just a little compulsion magic. Not enough for trouble, not the good kind anyway.'' Loki replied relaxing into his seat, Darcy tried to do the same but was too fascinated with the magic. If she were Loki, admittedly she would use it on anyone...especially hot guys and security guys at concerts and gigs, she thought hastily.
''I'd suggest keeping your thoughts to yourself.'' Loki said quietly never taking his eyes away from the screen. Her eyes widened ever so slightly, had she really said that out loud? Or had he used some sort of magic mojo to hear what she was thinking, either way she was embarrassed.
Turning back to the screen she joined in with the laughter that enveloped the room with everyone, she stole a quick glance at Loki and Thor who both looked confused and puzzled at the hot zombie movie. When it finally ended she was almost asleep, she hated it but ever since she was little she would get tired in movie theater's and barely got to see the ending, but this time she'd made it through, kind of. She felt a sharp finger poke her near her rib-cage awakening her half-awake half-asleep stage, Loki was staring at her with amusement and fascination. He looked strange in the dim-litted cinema. Licking her lips she sat up to realize they were the only two left and a young acne-prone teenage boy was shining a flashlight thing in their eye looking agitated. Loki turned to the boy with a smirk.
''We'll be out in a moment.'' Loki said airily, sounding much like a prince now, though she suspected she only thought that because of her tiredness. Once the boy left angrily Loki placed a finger on her arm stroking slightly, the coldness of his skin gave her goosebumps.
''Jane and Thor are waiting as well as the S.H.I.E.L.D agent...'' He said with pursed lips. She shrugged rolling her eyes and standing up with a yawn. She froze wideyed and stared at Loki.
''Do you hear that buzzing sound or is it just me?'' She asked clutching her ears and squinting her ocean eyes looking around for the source of the ''noise''. Loki gave her a strange look and shook his head, saying something with concern that she couldn't decipher along with the wretched noise that buzzed in her ears. Suddenly there was a 'pop' and everything went dark.
Loki dove forward catching Darcy before she fell, a strange sensation tightening his chest. What was wrong? What had happened?
''HELP, help!'' Loki yelled not knowing what to call the boy that was there before, he came rushing in along with what Loki assumed was his superior.
''We'll call an ambulance.'' The older one said rushing out with the boy in tow, Loki looked at Darcy's pale frame worriedly. This moment reminded him of when Odin had fallen into the odinsleep and how he couldn't help. Knowing Darcy was human and easy to manipulate made it all the more worse.
Luckily the hospital wasn't too far away and the ambulances arrived a few moments later. Loki watched as they put Darcy onto a stretcher and wheeled her into the vehicle, he had tried to follow but one of the people had shoved him away, lucky for them they shut the door before Loki snapped their necks. Thor and Jane watched, Jane had tearful eyes as she approached Loki with Thor and Agent Taylor.
They took the car to the Hospital and waited for the doctors to tell them what was going on, Agent Taylor had left to report it to S.H.I.E.L.D.
''Maybe she just fainted because of the food or something.'' Jane opted looking helplessly as she tightened her cardigan. Loki gave her a sharp look.
''She barely had any...'' He muttered bitterly. It was stupid that humans could even die because of the food they ate.
He began to grow agitated and he glared at the clock watching the minute hand tick away selflessly. At last, a grave looking older doctor walked towards them holding a clipboard. He nodded towards them and joined them. Noticing Loki and Thor looked quite out of place.
''How is she, will she be okay?'' Jane's worried voice peaked up causing the doctor to look at her with pursed lips.
''There's a slight problem. We cannot determine how or why she fainted, there's no sign of physical illness to be bleak, she's fine. She's still waking up just now and that's a worry but as far as we know there's nothing to worry about. We'll keep her here overnight just to be safe. Which one of you is her partner? She might be out of it but she said the name 'Loki'.'' The doctor asked looking at them all.
Loki was puzzled at the doctors explanation but blinked and stepped forward nodding his head keeping no expression on his face.
''Oh, well they're not together or anything like that...it's more of a companionship really. His Thor's brother.'' Jane edited in nervously, obviously she didn't like Loki all that much and he definitly did not like her. He gave her a chilling glare but the doctor just nodded awkardly.
''Right well...you both have strange names...'' The doctor mumbled.
''Where is Darcy?'' Loki questioned cutting in, the doctor looked at him for a moment and said ''Down the hall, first door on the left, don't try and upset her too much.''
Loki walked away from the little group to the room, glancing in the door's with windows seeing families being ripped apart by these illnesses their loved ones had. Pursing his lips he entered the room shutting the door behind himself. He stopped suddenly as he looked at Darcy was sitting upright in a weak fashion looking up at the ceiling strangely until she snapped her head to his. She looked ill...how could the doctor not see that?
''L-loki what the hell did you do to me?'' Darcy snapped barely having the strength to yell. Loki pursed his lips and put a hand to his chest, why would she assume he made her ill?
''I did nothing, it's your mortal bodies fault you fainted human.'' Loki said rolling his eyes and seating himself in an uncomfortable chair. If only he had one from Asgard.
Darcy gave him a look that told him to shut up and he did, it was rather amusing how she tried to act tough despite her state.
''Then why did I hear..?''
Darcy was cut off by the sound of machine guns going off in the building, they were loud even muffled by the walls. Darcy stared wide eyed at the door, luckily hers was windowless. Loki stood up straight away himself shocked at the sudden noise and then all there was was screaming and screaming.
''Thor, Jane!" Darcy shouted just before Loki put his hand around her mouth. Mustering up all the power within himself he tried to teleport them and it only just worked, but he could feel himself draining before they even arrived at their destination.
