I did change the last chapter quite a bit, so if you haven't read the modifications I suggest you do, otherwise this chapter will make no sense at all. Thanks!

Natasha whirled around, slightly breathless as she searched for Loki. Clint yelled at the crowd for them to disperse because the fight was over. Bruce scanned the street for any sign of the Demi-god.
"Where'd he go?" Natasha seethed, running around the car, still trying to find him.
"He's not gonna be still here now is he?" Bruce said, resting a hand on her shoulder. Natasha scoffed.
"Where's Tony?" Clint asked quickly, pulling open the car door and laying eyes on the empty car seat. Bruce threw his face into his hand.
"Shit.. Loki must have him." Natasha, Clint and Bruce all climbed into the car, and made a beeline towards Stark Tower.

This had to be the kitchen. It was large and spacious, with a massive oven, several toasters, a coffee machine, a huge fridge, and plentiful of cupboards. Not to mention the smooth laminate flooring, or the marble work tops.
"Is this Stark Tower?" Tony asked quietly next to him. Loki nodded. They'd obviously fixed it since his last visit. "I still don't understand what we're doing here." Tony whispered, looking around carefully, and not straying from Loki's side.
"We're going on an adventure." Loki said, and Tony grinned broadly.
"Welcome back, Mr Stark, shall I inform the others you have returned?" A cool voice cut through the air making them both jump slightly. Tony looked at Loki for conformation before saying:
"Urgh, no, thank you."
"Very well then. I must tell you however that Shield have been threatening to try and take the suits if you didn't return soon." Tony blinked, confused. Loki pursed his lips together tightly.
"But they're mine.." Tony said, trying to work out what the disembodied voice was saying.
"C'mon, hurry up." Loki said quickly, grabbing Tony's hand and they ran (Loki jogged) towards Tony's lab. They stopped as they heard voices waft through the open door.
"I just hope he's okay. What do you think Loki's going to try and do?"
"I don't know. But it is not in the nature of my brother to hurt a child."
Loki almost punched the wall as he heard Thor's unmistakable booming voice.
"So you don't think he's going to hurt Tony?"
"No."
Tony gave Loki a questioning look. Loki didn't supply a gesture in return. Footsteps could be heard withdrawing from the room, and Loki made an attempt to grab Tony and pull him aside, but didn't manage it in time. Loki sinking into the shadows, Tony remaining where he was.
"Tony?" Tony blinked as a woman with strawberry blonde hair came into view through the door frame. Tony looked wildly around for Loki, and after not seeing him, gulped and replied.
"Urm, yes."
"Oh my God." The woman exclaimed, rushing over to him and crouching down.
"Are you hurt? Do you need a band-aid? Are you hungry? I can make you something! I'll get Steve to make you something! No, not Steve just yet.. Oh my God, Tony!" Tony felt himself being crushed as Pepper hugged him tightly. His cheeks grew redder. She pulled away and smiled brightly.
"I- I saw you on the TV." Tony said, half stammering. Peppers smile widened a bit.
"C'mon, let's get you some food, then I think it'll be time for bed. You look shattered." Tony nodded as Pepper straightened up.
"Who are you?" He asked suddenly, Peppers smile faltered.
"You don't know who I am?" She clarified.
"No, please Miss, where's Mr Loki?" Tony asked, unable to read the expression on Peppers face.
"What do you mean?" She asked worriedly.
"Mr Loki... He was here a second ago. I don't know where he's gone." Tony was looking concerned now, and Pepper bit her lip.
"Where did you last see him?" She sounded casual, but inside a new element was bubbling inside her, if Loki was in the building...
"Urm.. When you came through the door. I don't know where he went."
Pepper chewed her lip some more as they entered the kitchen again. Pepper walking over to the cupboard to pull out a glass, but not before helping Tony clamber onto one of the bookshelves.
"Jarvis, can you do a check on who is in the house please?" Pepper asked the room casually, Tony turned his head looking for a new person.
"Loki is not within the building, Miss Potts." The same voice Tony had spoken to before answered.
"Who are you talking to?" Tony asked, but before Pepper could answer, a new voice cut through the air.
"What the fuck?! Ow Natasha! What was that for?!"
"Don't swear!"
"But it's Tony! It's not like he hasn't heard it before!"
Natasha, Bruce and Clint stood in the door way. All of whom were looking severely confused. Tony climbed off the stool and hid behind Pepper, looking really worried. Pepper turned around and crouched back down to Tony's height. It was weird seeing he boyfriend like this.
"What's wrong?" Tony fidgeted with his hands and glanced behind Pepper, at where the three were standing.
"They, they tried to get me and Mr Loki." He whispered.
"Is that so? I promise you Tony, they're on your side. We're to protect you."
"But.. Mr Loki said he was protecting me." Pepper turned around and gave Natasha, Clint and Bruce a questioning glance, they shrugged in unison.
"What did Mr Loki tell you?" Pepper asked, Tony replied with a yawn.
"I don't know.. But I'm tired." Pepper noticed that his eyes were looking droopy, and that he kept rubbing them.
"Of course, c'mon. Let's find you somewhere to sleep." Pepper picked him up and carried him from the room. He had fallen asleep before she'd gotten to the lift.

Loki looked up at Stark Tower. It had been a huge risk. Fatal if done wrong. But his plan was at last coming into affect.
