Steve looked at two piles of paper and turns paled.
"Do we need to read all of them?" Steve said, tilting his head, looking at the two piles of paper.
"Nay, you no need to read ALL of them. It's just for display." Tony grumbled sarcastically, still not excepting the fact he lost to Bruce.
"I have a summary about their young age diet, growth rate and things they cannot eat." Bruce said, taking out a thin small piece of paper from the top of the stack.
"WHAT! THIS IS THE SUMMARY YOU HAVE FOR ALL THAT INFORMATION YOU GOT! A THIN PIECE OF PAPER OUT OF ALL THAT PILE OF RESEARCH!" Clint shouted in shock.
"Nay, the rest are something very hard to processed that make your brain explode. I want to spare you with the agony of finding information and reading those papers." Bruce said, passing the paper to Steve.
"So now currently Loki can take milk and some food which is not oily only due to his current age, he can't take chocolate and too much sugar according to this paper. The chocolate may cause health problem to him. They also tend to be more sensitive to loud sounds and hide in some dark corners and-"
"Okay, that is a whole lot of information than just a bit of information. There is not a real need to say all so loud." Tony said, still looking unhappy.
Steve glared at Tony and continued saying all the things needed to take note about for Loki's health, ignoring Tony.
"So that settles it!" Natasha said happily, thinking it is the end of the meeting.
"We still need to find a caretaker for Loki, you know?" Steve said.
"I thought we could take care of Loki ourselves." Thor said, not liking the thought of a person called caretaker.
"During missions, we can't take care of him in the Stark Tower. Remember that time?" Steve said softly.
All the Avengers turn silent as they remember that they almost lose Loki to Doom.
"So I will go hire the best caretaker?" Tony said cheekily, thinking of a hot lady who will be the caretaker which he can flirt with.
"I wish Coulson is here, he can almost do anything." Steve said sadly, remembering that they lose him due to the war with Loki.
"That can be changed with two conditions." A new voice said.
~oOo~
All the Avengers get to battle stance and face the unknown person to be seen as a young lady with long black wavy hair and green eyes.
"Hel!" Thor said happily, running to the lady, to be smacked aside into the wall.
"Why is my FATHER a kid with no memory and still have black cat ears and tail?" Hel asked in anger, giving out a very dark aura, eyes glinting with darkness.
"It's a long story…" Thor said, unsure what to answer to her niece.
Hel looked at Thor for a moment and sighed.
"So is he really okay in this way? He can't even recognise me…" Hel's eyes turn shiny with tears, body shivering slightly with misery.
Thor put a comforting pat on her shoulder.
"He is going to be fine!" Thor beamed.
"BUT YOU DID NOT TAKE CARE OF HIM WELL ENOUGH!" Hel shouted, throwing Thor across the room in anger.
All Avengers saw how far Thor is thrown and decided to NOT comment on ANYTHING for the time being.
~oOo~
Hel went to sit down in the living room and drink a cup of tea.
"So she is the daughter of Loki?" Clint asked, inspecting her.
"Yeah, she is." Thor said.
"Why are we all hiding here?" Natasha said, as ALL the Avenger is squeezing in the monitor room, watching the security camera feeds.
"I am not sure of making the ruler of the dead unhappy, you know? I am not prepared to be dead yet." Tony remarked.
"I will go and take to her then, as you all are cowards to start with." Natasha said in anger, stomping out of the room.
"But she is scary!" Tony protested out loud, to be answered with a slam of the door.
Bruce sighed and looked at the video feeds.
~oOo~
Hel put down the cup of tea and sighed in content. Then she noticed Natasha bringing some food unknown to her and sat down beside her.
"Want some snacks? It is a nice food which we eat. It's eatable, don't worry." Natasha asked, munching on some snacks.
"No thanks." Hel said, wondering why she is not afraid of her.
"So is it true that you will let Coulson come back to life if we fulfilled the two conditions right?" Natasha said.
"Yes, I will do as what I promised." Hel said with a smile, eyes glittering with mischief.
~oOo~
"So what are the two conditions?" Natasha said.
The other Avengers leaned nearer to the speaker to hear the conversation eagerly.
"The first condition is explained why my father is like this PROPERLY and the second one is to play hide and seek with my father for 12 hours" Hel said sweetly, giving out a dark aura and eyes glittering, showing all the mischief and terror she could give.
The other Avengers gulped in anxiousness and felt glad that they are not really facing Hel.
"And I would like your other friends to be NOT so RUDE and come down here IMMEDIATELY!" Hel shouted in anger, hair rising in anger with green magic surrounding her, looking right at the camera in full view.
The other Avengers run like they never run before in their entire life to the living room.
~oOo~
All the Avengers except Natasha who is giggling at them all sit obediently in front of Hel on the sofa, all looking very paled.
"So you finally come down." Hel said sweetly, taking a sip from the cup of tea.
"Yeah…" Tony murmured, shivering slightly from the fear.
"So can explain to me what happen, Thor?" Hel said, putting down the cup of tea with a soft thud.
Thor paled further and started talking.
~oOo~
After hearing the story, all the Avengers hold their breath preparing for the impact of Hel's anger. Hel's face started to turn red in anger and give out a very dark aura, eyes shone with anger and hair flying out like a haunted ghost. Her magic simmered around her, showing how powerful she can be if she is really serious.
Then Loki who just got out of bed wandered into the living room, rubbing his eyes sleepily.
Hel immediately calmed down, eyes sparkling with happiness the moment she sees Loki walking into the living room. Then she walked quickly over to Loki and picked Loki up gently.
Loki blink at her sleepily and yawned, stretching himself, tail straightening with black cat ears bending backwards.
Hel face softened and start petting Loki's head, making Loki purr in content. Loki nuzzled against Hel lovingly, smiling in content.
All the Avengers are unable to think of anything for the first time of their life.
~oOo~
"So we need to play hide and seek with Loki?" Bruce asked in hesitation.
"Yes, I just said that a few minutes ago." Hel sitting down on the sofa, tickling Loki, making him squeaks in joy.
"Why out of all the things you asked us to play hide and seek with Loki?" Tony asked curiously.
"Because he is very good in this, no, not just good, the BEST in this game!" Thor said with a serious look on his face.
"And it is for the FUN!" Hel said, eyes glinting with all that joy.
The other Avengers could not imagine the obstacles they need to go through in order to find Loki.
"You all should be glad that my father is not having his full power and memory. He makes lots of traps and illusion which cause a lot of injuries instead of death. He could do that but it's a game of fun, not death." Hel shrug, continue playing with Loki.
"But he can't be that good right?" Clint said in hesitation.
"The longest time he manage to stay hidden is one day." Thor said seriously.
"One day only?" Tony said, trying to control his laughter.
"It's more like when we were young, we play hide and seek with the others. Loki is among those who need to hide. When we found everyone except Loki, everyone searched for him EVERYWHERE, even the kitchen which usually gets us kicked out by the angry chief." Thor beamed, thinking back at the childhood they have.
"So how did you all find him?" Natasha asked.
"It is sunset time and we still unable to find him. Then one of those who were supposed to hide but found in the end suggested that we shout out loud that they won the game and he can come out now. We did as suggested and Loki just seems to come out of NOWHERE. We asked where he hide but he said it is a secret." Thor sighed, looking at Loki longingly.
"But he also managed to stay hidden away from Heimdall for years, and still can't be found unless he wants to meet someone. That is when he is a teenager." Thor added helpfully.
"So … we are all going to die seriously just for this, you know." Clint said, feeling that it is an impossible mission for them.
"Yeah, I know. I understand that feeling." Tony said feeling very depressed.
"I need the strongest drinks I can use."
