Chapter 12.
Odin, Frigga, Jane and Thor stood with Heimdall in the Observatory as he opened the Bifrost to Jotunheim having heard Loki call out to him. What would only take
three minutes felt like hours and before they knew it Loki stood before them holding Mjolnir. Thor seeing Loki holding Mjolnir he turned to Odin and asked "Father
how can he be worthy to hold Mjolnir he's a monster". Then seeing Jane wrap her arms around Loki he growled under his breath "he should have stayed with the rest
of the monsters".
Odin glared at Thor to quieten him before returning his gaze to Loki shocked but also delighted that he was able to lift Mjolnir.
Once Jane and Frigga had let go of Loki he looked behind him and seeing no sign of Tara he said "Heimdall there was another who was travelling with me".
Heimdall shook his head and said "I'm sorry Prince Loki but I'm afraid your guest was pulled back at the last minute".
Loki nodded his head and dropping Mjolnir beside Thor he said "Father we must speak as I believe the Frost Giants have allied themselves with the Chitauri". Odin
nodded his head and both Father and son made their way to a quieter place to talk.
Thor watched them go before bending down to pick up Mjolnir which lifted with ease. Looking at Heimdall Thor asked "tell me Heimdall could it be possible that Loki
has changed his ways all because of Jane Foster?"
Heimdall looked at Thor thoughtful for a moment before replying "yes Prince Thor he has. Jane Foster has changed him in ways none of us could have ever expected".
Thor nodded his head realising that he could not tear Jane and Loki apart and that he would have to let Jane Foster go. Looking at Heimdall Thor thanked him and left
the Observatory.
Odin and Loki sat in Odin's office discussing what Loki had witnessed on Jotunheim. Normally the All Father would have laughed at this but it was now worrying to
think that this Master of the Chitauri had created something so young and yet so powerful. "Are you completely certain this Kara can be trusted?"
Loki nodded his head first then shook it saying "well she did help me escape and was coming with me so she could escape but now I'm beginning to wonder if it was
all a trick".
Odin nodded his head and said "we will find out if she was telling the truth Loki because if she was I will allow her to live here on Asgard. Now I believe you are
anxious to spend time with Lady Jane so go. We will speak more about this tomorrow morning".
Loki smiled and standing up he said "thank you Father and yes I am anxious to spend time with Jane". Leaving the room Loki felt worried for Kara's well-being. He
hoped that where ever the kid was she was safe.
…..
The emptiness of the void was home as Kara climbed the steps to where her creator and Master sat upon his throne. She'd had a chance to escape with the Prince of
Asgard but at the last moment she had been dragged back to the void. Coming to the top of the steps she saw her Master staring angrily at her. She had always been
terrified of him even when he had treated her well. Standing tall she asked "what is it you wish of me Master Thanos?"
Thanos glared at Kara and beckoning her closer he said "I created you and gave you life child and all I ask in return is your loyalty and obedience but you seem to
have strayed"
Kara shook her head and was about to defend herself when she felt the sharp sting of a slap across her face. Feeling tears fill her eyes she whispered "please forgive
me Master".
Thanos stared at Kara and rolling his eyes he snapped "tears do not sway me creature now report to the training room. Your mind has been tainted against me so as
punishment you will spend your time in the chamber. Until then I will just have to use my other little creation until you are ready to continue your job".
Kara felt her heart beat rapidly terrified of having to endure the chamber again. Before she left the void she had been tortured to obey and show loyalty to the Master
and now she had to return there. Seeing Thanos beginning to rise from his chair Kara backed up a few steps knowing it was no use in pleading as those pleas would
not be heard. Nodding her head she said "of course Master and thank you". Seeing Thanos dismiss her Kara made her way back down the steps and walked towards
the chamber.
…..
A soft breeze blew through the royal gardens as Jane sat on a garden bench to get some fresh air. Seeing Loki enter the gardens Jane smiled and stood to greet him.
She truly loved him and seeing him smile at her she felt a blush heat up her face. It was strange to see him in his Asgardian armour and horned helmet he had worn
when he had attacked New York but decided to push those thoughts away as he neared her.
"Jane Foster if I may say you do look ravishing in that dress" said Loki as he took her hands in his.
Jane smiled and looked into Loki's eyes and seeing the emptiness behind them she flinched and tried to pull away saying "you are not the Loki I know".
Tightening his grip on Jane Loki smiled and said "clever little mortal aren't we. The Master forgot to mention that but I'm sure by the time I'm finished with you that
intelligence you hold so dear will be nothing more than a flaky husk".
Looking around Jane saw no one else in the garden to help her so she struggled to free herself from his grasp only to be struck harshly across the face. The Loki
imposter sneered at her and pulling her closer he muttered a spell and the two of them disappeared to another place in the Nine Realms.
