Loki's Escape
Gahhh!....Time skipppity skip. Don't forget, time passes faster on Earth than Asguard. So what seems like a year here, is really only a month on Asguard.
BTW, if you have any ideas or anything that could go great with the story, I'm all for it. Enjoy.
Adara sighed for probably the twentieth time today. The black cat gazed up into the sky, wondering if she could see Asguard from here.
"Here midnight, I have some tuna for you." The elderly lady placed the food dish next to her form. Adara only flicked her tail as a result not liking her new name.
It's been two years since shes seen her master, Loki. If only she could force her power out then. When that old man pried her out of his hands, out of the warmth and protection that he offered.
Yes she remembered him fighting, calling her name and for the first time, he begged. Begged the man he once called brother and father to stop and listen to him, but they only ignored him. Freyja, only looking away with sadness.
Loki was held down by many guards while the kitten was carried away. After that she didn't remember much except a few voices and hands that were ice cold against her fur. Then she suddenly awoken to new smells, sights and sounds that she knew not of. Adara was frightened to the point she couldn't move. Crying out for Loki to the point she couldn't even meow anymore. Adara stayed for days in the field- tired, scared and hungry. Just when she thought darkness would take her, an elderly lady took her in and cared for her.
Adara however, only looked towards the sky for her master and as the days grew on, her faith in him only increases.
In Asguard.
Thor strode through the halls of the palace feeling guilty for everything that's happened. He brought the kitten into his brothers life hoping that it would coax his old self out, and it worked. Thor was able to see bits and pieces of his brother genuine happy again. Sadly it was only ripped away from him and the God of Thunder couldn't do anything to ease his pain.
Thor walked into the dinning room where he was expecting to see the Warriors Three but instead he only saw Freyja sitting on the table looking out into the Asguardian sky.
"My lady." Thor bowed out of respect.
The goddess looked sadden, almost like a flower wilting in Thor's eyes and it didn't suite her.
"Is everything alright?"
"How does Loki fare?"
Thor sighed, "Take a walk with me." he gestured and Freyja followed after him. Together they walked through the prison district where bits of rubble and ice remained from the fight with Loki. It took an entire battalion of guards along with Thor to get him into his cell once more.
The God of Thunder never saw him act like this, never fight with such ferocity that it was truly frighting. However, Thor felt anger surge through him towards Odin. 'Why, why would he do such a thing?'
Thor's thoughts were cut short when he heard Freyja gasp in horror. There was nothing remaining in Loki's cell. It looked as though an earth quake happened- everything destroyed and leaving Loki looking like an animal that was kept in captivity for its entire life, neglected and left to starve for vengeance.
"Brother-"
Loki glared at the God of Thunder, smiling like a mad man. His hair was disheveled and his eyes held nothing but hatred.
It took a moment before Thor could recompose himself again. "Brother, I am so sorry that this has happened to you."
Loki would have none of it, he merely turned his back ignoring his company. After a long pause, Freyja spoke, "Adara.... she is doing well in Midguard. Living everyday as a cat should be."
Thor sighed ushering the goddess out, knowing that Loki wouldn't talk. He's never said a word since his imprisonment and Thor knew he wouldn't start soon. It was heart breaking, seeing his brother in such a state. If only he could've done something for him a long time ago, then maybe none of this would've happened.
"Thor."
Life itself seemed to hold its breath when Loki spoke in a low husky voice. It was scratchy from its many months of unuse. "If you truly care about me, if you truly believe in me like you say you do. Then you will let me go."
Freyja had gone and it was only the step brothers now that remained in the prison district. The guards were sent outside so they could have privacy upon the Thunders appearance earlier. (Thor)
"I-I cannot do that brother."
Loki walked over to the barrier and punched it, startling the bigger God. "But you can!" he screamed. His face seemed to soften and his eyes glistened. Loki brought a hand to his chest around where his heart would be. "It hurts. She plagues my mind. Leaving me to toss an turn in my sleep. I keep hearing her, and expecting her to be behind my heels." A single tear fell down the side of his face making Thor's eyes widen. "Brother, I-I am scared of what I'll become with out her by my side." Loki answered honestly. For once in his life, he showed his weakness to someone else. To his brother who out shown him his entire childhood.
Thor knew not how to respond. He hated going against his fathers wishes, but he wasn't going to abandon his brother a second time. "You must swear to me. Right here, right now. That you will not harm a single soul nor cause havoc upon a planet. You will only go and find Adara and you both will return home." Thor said, "You must swear to me on Adara and Frigga's name." Swearing upon someones name was frowned upon in Asguard. It is said that if you break that vow, then those people will die. Thor used his mothers name, so that Loki would grasp just how serious he was about it. (Of course I made this up.)
"Thor, I have never been so desperate than to come begging to you."
Loki's eyes said everything and they were true. Thor went over and pushed the button that release the force field. "You know where your things are?"
"Indeed I do." Loki said, glancing around. Thor quickly grabbed his hammer and threw it into the opposite wall. Loki stepped back out of instinct.
"You must make it look like I was out smarted and defeated by you."
Loki smiled at this. "That shouldn't be to hard." For a few moments, they stared at each other, wondering what the other was thinking. "Thor. I am eternally grateful, for what you are doing." Thor saw how uncomfortable but honest he looked and couldn't resist. The God of Thunder pulled the God of Mischief into a strong hug. The last time Thor was able to do this, was when they were mere children playing in the gardens with Frigga watching over them.
Loki, for the life of him, couldn't remember what to do. He simply just stood there allowing Thor to do as he pleased as that strange warmth coursed through him like the time he was with Adara. "Be safe brother."
And like that, Thor knocked into a wall, watching as Loki walked away to collect his armor and weapons and suddenly, darkness blurred the blonde God's vision.

Loki walked through the halls of the treasure vault. His boots softly clicking upon the stone floor. At the very end of the vault, near the Tesseract, was his staff and helmet along with his armor.
Quickly he pulled them on, feeling the magic run though his vanes revived him into his old self. No longer wearing that thin white piece of cloth made him smile. With his power now acquired, he ventured to where the bright blue cube was stored at. Remembering the Avengers and the Hulk made him shiver slightly but the longing for his kitten drove him to grab it .
Suddenly a door opened and out stepped the Destroyer. It's heavy metal boots shaking Asguard and making Loki take a few steps back with a raised eyebrow. He knew that Odin could see everything that the creature could. Smiling, "your too late old man." Loki turned the Tesseract and disappeared before he could be stopped.
~~~~~
The universe rushed past Loki, rustling his hair and leather coat. Finally he was free from that damn place. All his doubts and worries evaporated when his feet hit solid ground. The sounds of people and cars filled this new place and Loki opened his eyes to be met with the tall human structures that seemed to outshine the stars.
"Adara, I'm here."
Well.....Wahtcha' think? While browsing for a picture, I found this one and threw the brotherly scene in, thinking that it couldn't have been placed at a better time then now. So for the future, I'm thinking a little bit of Avengers, not to much though, just enough. Like maybe say (with out giving possible spoilers) experiment, Loki asking someone for help.... I don't know.... I NEED INSPIRATION!!!! lol till next time.
