The hate
She hated Loki with all her gut, even when Asgard has forgiven him for his actions.Jennifer could not stand how he was pardoned for 'saving the world' three ears ago.She knew the numbers of the flight based warrior drones and how they attacked in numbers that were far too large for an average human to handle shooting.Lives were falling from the sky.
All Jennifer could do was lie and wait for her jet to be repaired.
Jennifer didn't like to wait.
She took out small figured and plastic toys.
Jennifer put them on the table using a long stick with a flat wide part to move their positions.She could feel the presence of some-one else coming to the room. The light paced boot steps sent chills down her arm. Distractions are not welcomed, Jennifer mentally thought sliding a knight on a horse forwards towards the opposing army.
"Planner, I see." Loki said, leaning against the door.
Jennifer looks up.
"It is not a plan." Jennifer said. "It is a strategy."
Loki looks towards Jennifer, making an odd reaction getting his back off the doorframe.
"A strategy with horses and men fighting against one another?" Loki asks.
Jennifer wipes her forehead then going through her red curly hair.
"No." Jenifer said. "It is...Much more sophisticated than you think."
Loki walks over towards the table with his hands behind his back.
"Enlighten me." Loki offers.
Why the hell would Jennifer be telling the worst,and very much despised, villain in the name of humanity.He had asked, like as it were a challenge, as if he were a curious child.It was only polite to answer a question not hold back the answer.
"Flying jellyfish." Jennifer said.
Loki is baffled at first.
"Pardon?" Loki asks.
"Flying.Jelly.fish." Jennifer said, earning a laugh from Loki."Imagine them as gigantic spaceships that zap you!" She closed and opened her metal hand as though it were a claw."Imagine people being harvested, their deceased bodies being handled not with care..." The look on Loki's face became that of disgust. "Clothes being chucked out through a chute...a narrow tube you can say." She places her metal hand on the table sliding it sideways on the wooden surface."Imagine them dying." Her words had become heavy at the mention of 'dying'."Imagine your realm is next victim in the way of this race." Her eyes went wide."Now imagine you can't do anything, except, send out your flight based pilots to shoot that threat down."
Or just watch everyone die around you in the hot steamy room, Jennifer thought with her attention on Loki.
"What do you mean there's nothing you can do about it?" Loki asks.
"There is nothing,'Laufeyson', that anyone can do to stop them from killing." Jennifer said as her eyes returned to normal. "My jet is equipped with a very rare and specifically built bomb.This bomb is made to kill the impossible ships; they're all connected, I have to kill the queen even if it requires my life."
"A bomb." Loki said, ignoring the last part.
"Yes, a bomb." Jenifer said, with a nod. "My ship carries a bomb. An important cargo."
"What is a bomb?" Loki asks.
"Imagine the biggest powerful blast coming out of a peanut shaped machine that fell to the ground."Jenifer said."Imagine everyone disappearing once the blasts has gone through, imagine the damage, the loss of life, the shadows left behind by this powerful blast...If...you should know what a bomb is!"
"I honestly have no idea what a bomb is." Loki said. "I have not given much thought to Midgard's weapons."
"Midgard?" Jennifer asks.
"Middle earth, your realm." Loki said. "You're in Asgard, above Midgard, the higher realm."
"Right." Jennifer said,continuing the 'i' in right as though she wasn't convinced all the while sliding the small figures forward colliding down the warrior sticks."Side attack wouldn't work, same result."She sighs."And then..." She slid the figures that had been knocked down forwards cornering the smaller figures."Kaboom."
"As I understand, that kills birds." Loki said.
"The earth was made in seven days." Jennifer said. "Our sacrifices are worth every minute.The effects will be over in due time."
"Sacrifices?" Loki said."What kind of sacrifices are you talking about?"
"Te Shield, The Hydra, The Avengers." Jennifer said. "All those programs are gone.We're defending ourselves, for once, everyone is working together.They do not give a rats ass to our fate, but, when it matters to their lives then that all changes."
"Is Thor's girlfriend part of your program?" Loki asks.
"Who?" Jennifer asks.
"Jane Foster." Loki said. "She's the second most known Midgardian in your realm."
There was a unusual silence in the air between Loki and Jennifer.
"I am afraid she's dead." Jennifer said. "I was the last one to see her." Jennifer's voice became lower. "Her friend Darcy is the head of my Proto-bomb program." She takes her hand off the table. "Sad part about this war is that everything will return to what it had been a few months ago."
"And you were there with Jane?" Loki asks.
"I was." Jennifer said, with a reluctant sigh.
Loki looks over towards Jennifer's metal arm.
"I lost my arm escaping." Jennifer said.
Loki is surprised turning his attention away from the arm.
"And you said there wasn't a way to kill them." Loki said.
"When they killed my best friend,Jane,in front of my eyes, I knew there wasn't much time." Jennifer clears her throat."We had been discussing about the moon; the colors. The chemicals inside the machine had messed her up.She claimed the moon was the color of her boyfriend's eyes."
"But not you." Loki said.
"Apparently, I am immune to it." Jennifer said. "I played along."
"What if the moon can change colors?" Loki asks.
"Oh yes, it can." Jennifer said. "Orange, white,and red."
"Dare me." Loki said. "Dare me to change the color of the moon."
"No." Jennifer refuses.
"The moon can turn into other colors, mortal." Loki said.
"...What?" Jennifer said, shaking her head.
Jennifer has a 'seriously?' kind of expression.
"Thirty five years ago it turned blue." Loki said. "It lasted for a Midgardian week. Before that it had been pink."
"I dare you to make the moon green for one year." Jennifer said,letting the words slip from her mouth. "No, that is not what I meant to say!" She shook her metal hand as a mischievous grin grew on Loki's face. "This dare will only be valid if I am alive."
"The longest moon change I did was a week." Loki said. "I give it 12 months."
"Four." Jennifer argues.
"Twelve." Loki retorts.
"Eleven." Jennifer said.
"One year." Loki said.
"How do you know of Jane Foster when she never told me that Thor is her boyfriend?" Jennifer asks, and then, she gasps at her own comment. "Woah."
Loki went silent turning away from Jennifer.
"I should tell Thor about Jane Foster." Loki said.
Jennifer is blinking and her mouth is gaping.
"I wouldn't want to be in your shoes." Jennifer said, as Loki exits the room. A sparkle went off in her eye. "Ah!" She snaps her finger. "I didn't think about attacking from above." She threw her hands up in the air."Only one chance to pull it off."
Her mission is important.
Maybe Loki isn't so bad after all.
