There was a pregnant pause.
"Is this going to be a regular occurrence? You destroyed a part of my Tower! Look at it!" Stark was the first to yell, waving his arms around theatrically. It was true: the walls all had cracks in the plaster where we had been thrown against them, the window was cracked, the furniture destroyed, and there was a smoking hole in the corner of the carpet.
"I'm sure you can fix it. You have the money, after all." I responded coolly.
Stark was spared responding to this by Thor. "They're dangerous. They should not be allowed to stay here together." He was obviously continuing an argument that had been going on outside. "If this is what they do when they have minor fights with each other, imagine the destruction they could cause when they were really trying!"
"Minor fight? This was a minor fight?" Stark mumbled to himself, picking up broken pieces if furniture that were scattered around the room.
"No, Nyx and Loki will stay here in the Tower. They are both extremely powerful and extremely skilled fighters, as you say, and they will be beneficial to have on our side." Director said.
"On your side? Says who?" I cross my arms over my chest.
"Says the fact that if you don't help us, I'll let Thor ship your ass back to Asgard for a punishment a lot worse than this."
I raised my eyebrows, but said nothing.
"So I guess it's settled then." The redhead said, ignoring the staring match Thor and the Director were currently having. "Nyx, I'll show you to your room. Loki, get back in yours."
Loki snorted. "You can't boss me around, mortal."
For some reason I couldn't be bothered to stand through another argument. Too much had happened today: being captured, seeing Loki, and that fight had taken up a lot of my energy. I needed to rest. "I'm coming. Loki, stop being a dick." I had a pounding headache all of a sudden. I rubbed my temple and ignored the snorts of laughter from a couple of the Avengers. Loki, instead of looking insulted, noticed me rubbing my head and shot me a concerned glance.
"Are you okay?"
My head felt like it was on fire and I was feeling lightheaded. The pain in my head pulsed with my racing heartbeat, and I almost stumbled as a wave of dizziness hit me. What's happening? I didn't use that much magic. "I'm fine. Tired, I guess."
He nods and turns to follow the read headed woman, who had started walking out of the room. The look in his eyes said he didn't believe me though. What did I expect, he's the God of Lies. I shake my head to try to clear the pain, and follow them out of the room. I make a point to ignore the looks I get from everyone else in the room, especially Thor.
I stumble a few times on the way there, the pain in my head increasing with every step I take. I keep a hand constantly pressed to the side of my head, not that it does much good. I follow Loki and the woman through countless corridors, my lightheadedness stopping me from taking note of where I'm going. Loki is talking to the woman about something, but I can't hear them over the pounding in my skull. I grit my teeth and try to push the pain back, resulting in my falling into the wall and almost passing out. I'm so weak. I right myself and keep walking, trying and failing to ignore the fact that it feels like a knife has been stabbed into my brain every time my heart beats. I take deep breaths to try and calm my heart rate, and have to fight to stop myself from screaming as the pain threatens to make me black out. Why do I feel like this? Loki glances back at me occasionally, but says nothing, which I'm grateful for. This is embarrassing.
The red haired woman shows me to a room furnished only by a bed and a table. I see it through a white haze of pain and confusion. I make a mental note to use magic to furnish the room later as I walk through the door. I ignore her calculating gaze and Loki's look of concern as he walks past, and close the door. I lean against it, breathing deeply.
The bang of the door closing seems to echo in my head, like I'm in a tunnel. My ears are ringing and my vision is going white around the edges. What's happening? A sudden crash of dizziness washes over me, and I fall to my knees in the middle of the floor, clutching my head. It feels like there's a clamp in my skull, and it's expanding slowly until it cracks my head open. I scream soundlessly as the pain overwhelms me, forcing my eyes to roll back in my skull and my back to arch unnaturally.
I think I see Tyr's worried face above me before I'm plunged into darkness.
Like I said, really short.
