Loki's POV

Loki but his tongue. It hurt, but it was a lot better than screaming like a little girl as the Wind flung him this way and that. Why it couldn't just give him a smooth ride like it did for Jokul, Loki would never know.

They were on their way to the North Pole as after Jokul had explained who the Guardians were Loki had decided that they sounded like the sorts of people it would be a good idea to ally himself with. Or at least make sure they understood the stakes of the game, it had worked wonders with Fury. At first the man had been completely hostile towards him but a simple (okay, a very complex) explanation later and the man was accepting, even if he still did not trust Loki completely

The Wind dumped them on top of a large and rather colourful building complex. Loki ran his fingers along his clothes, freezing off the moisture they had collected during the journey and brushing off non-existent dirt.

Loki turned to Jokul who had his nose pressed to what appeared to be a sunroof. Honestly, why would someone need a sunroof in the Arctic? There wouldn't even be a sun for half of the year.

Loki crouched next to his son. "What's going on?" He asked. He had been under the impression that they would just be able to drop in and talk to the Guardians.

Jokul glanced over at him as he spoke but quickly returned his gaze to the interior of the workshop without answering.

Loki frowned and turned his gaze downwards to the scene in the workshop below. His eyes widened. Standing next to people he assumed to be the Guardians (they fitted Jokul's descriptions of them perfectly) were the Avengers. To Loki's amusement his so-called brother appeared to be unconscious.

But that did not solve the problem they now faced. With the Avengers talking to the Guardians Loki could not go near. Even Jokul, a member of the Guardians was unlikely to be safe trying.

Loki frowned, thinking intensely in order to solve the new problem. Why could things not just go to plan for once?

He turned to Jokul to tell his son that they were leaving. Only to find his son opening the sunroof and jumping through.
