Broken
The Guardian's offered to take us all the way to Earth, but Thor, Loki, and I politely refused. We needed to get to the refugee ship and help the other Asguardians. Besides, Thor's a king now and he has serious responsibilities.
The stars flew by in a spectacular array of shapes, colours and textures, and I enjoyed the beauty of it.
The whole trip, Loki and I were inseparable, and even now we are inseparable.
Peter leads the way into the refugee ship and hugs me. I smile and hug him back, glad that we've grown closer as siblings over the course of the trip.
"I'll miss you." He says, somewhat awkwardly, and I nod in agreement.
"Same here, bro." I pat his back before breaking apart from his embrace.
I nod at Rocket, give Drax a hug, nod at Gamora, and nod at Groot.
"Thanks for everything. One day I'll repay you."
Rocket smirks, "You'd better."
Quill glares at him before leading the way back into their ship. I watch sadly, but then break out into laughter at Drax's farewell.
"Goodbye Pirate Angel!"
Thor looks after him incredulously, making me laugh harder. Bruce came and greeted us, and then, we started the journey to Earth.
~~~
A large ship.
We all saw it.
But it was too late.
Nothing could save us from the slaughter that ensued.
The pain.
The blood.
The carnage.
Thor, Heimdall, Loki, Bruce, and I are the only ones left alive.
We attacked and fought our best, but he defeated us.
Thanos, the mad titan.
And his deformed children.
I wipe blood from my lip, and listen to their stupid speeches. Thanos needs the Infinity Stones in order to control and wipe out half of the universe.
"The end is near. When I'm done, half of humanity will still exist. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be. And the universe will be grateful."
I cough, and interrupt, "You know what would make the universe really grateful?"
He glares at me, as does his minions.
I continue, "Yeah. If you killed yourself. The universe would be so undeniably grateful, as would I."
"You should watch your mouth," he advises.
I snort, "You should watch your weight."
He scowls, but before he can say anything Loki interjects, "You seem to forget, that we have a HULK!" Loki shouts, moving out of the way as Hulk crashes into Thanos.
For a second, I think that Hulk will win. But Thanos beats him. My hope is crushed as Thanos lifts Hulk off the ground and slams him down.
I run over to him as he starts to turn back into Bruce, and faintly hear Heimdall asking the Allfathers for strength.
His hand is stretched out towards Hulk/Bruce and I.
"No, Heimdall-" I start to shout, but I am whisked away along with Bruce/Hulk, as we fly on the Rainbow Bridge.
I scream with frustration. I can't lose Loki again! The emotional stress is too much!!!
I shut my eyes and focus on my powers.
I control my thoughts and concentrate on looking through Thor's eye. Since I want to look at Loki, and Thor has the best view of the room, and it's kind of easy to enter Thor's mind.
The sight I am greeted with horrifies me even more.
Heimdall lies on the ground, dead. I choke. He died saving Bruce and I.
Loki's face is nonchalant, but I can tell he's scared.
"Loki. Promise me you'll stay alive." I speak into his mind, while looking out of Thor's eye. It's really hard to multitask like this, but I have to see what's happening.
"Love, I can't promise that."
My heart hitches, "Yes, yes you can. I expect you to live. You're a survivor, if anyone can survive this, you can."
Thanos walks toward me, or more accurately, Thor. His large hand wraps around our throat, and I can feel Thor's panic and pain.
"I will kill him, unless you give me the Tesseract."
Loki smiles, "Well, I can't help you there. I don't have it."
"Yes, he doesn't have it. It was destroyed with Asgard." Thor chuckles.
Thanos says nothing, instead he squeezes our (Thor's) throat, watching as he (we) struggle.
Loki looks at us (Thor) without emotion until Thor starts to cease fighting.
"WAIT! STOP!" Loki finally yells, before conjuring the Tesseract out of thin air. Thanos lets us (Thor) fall to the floor.
Thanos takes the cube and crushes it, revealing an Infinity Stone.
"I pledge myself to you. You have my undying loyalty." Loki starts, and I find myself smiling.
"Yes, Loki. Stay alive." I whisper in his head, before I see the knife in his hand.
"NO!" I yell. He can't, he can't beat Thanos!
He thrusts the knife upwards, but is stopped by Thanos and his Infinity Stones.
"Interesting choice of words. 'Undying'."
Thanos lifts Loki his into the air and starts to squeeze.
"LOKI!"
I try to attack Thanos using my mind, but I cannot. My powers are fading, and it takes all of me to watch and connect with Loki.
"Loki!"
"Listen to me Y/n, I love you, and I've always loved you. I wanted to do the right thing, and I'm sorry I failed."
"No! No, you haven't failed! You'll be - you'll be fine.." I sob, spotting my lie.
"Love, don't lie. You can't deceive me, I'm the god of mischief and lies, remember?"
"Yes, how could I forget? Loki, I-"
"Shh, I-I need to say this. Y/n, I'll never forget you, and I want you to be happy. Your happiness is all I've e-ever wanted... I, I love you."
While Loki was talking to me, he was also talking to Thanos. He's an excellent multitasker.
"You'll never be a god." He says, with a slight chuckle. He's fading, as Thanos squeezes harder.
I watch through Thor's eye as Loki drops to the ground.
Dead.
Unblinking.
Motionless.
His eyes glassed over, his whole body still.
A lifeless corpse.
I search his mind, looking for a sign, anything, but I am greeted with silence and darkness. The tears flow from my body, but I am still looking through his eye.
Looking at Loki.
Hoping, dreaming, yearning for him to wake up.
For him to laugh.
For him to pet my hair and whisper in my ear.
For him to make me blush.
I'd settle for him to breathe.
For him to be alive.
If my heart was a glass statue, it would be on the floor in a million fragmented pieces. Bleeding out and dying, longing to join its love.
I gasp and sputter as I am swept away in the Bifrost. My contact with Thor broken, just as my heart broke.
I land with Bruce, on Earth, I think.
I notice that strange man I met on the same day I re-met Loki, and I notice red hot tears flowing from my eyes.
And then I notice nothing.
For I become nothing.
An empty shell without feeling, with two things in my mind: grief and revenge.
And then I am lost in a swirl of terrifying darkness,
made all the more terrible by the whole in my heart,
and the fact that if I have a nightmare,
no one will be there to give me comfort.
Because now,
I am truly
alone.
Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!! The tears!!!!!!!
I legitimately cried while writing this, and while watching the movie. :(
So, now Loki is dead.
Don't worry though, 'cause I'm going to write a few more chapters of this where Y/n (you) go through the Infinity War.
Loki's still dead though, but maybe he'll come back in the next Avenger's movie. Somehow...
Anyways, did you enjoy?
Well, no one reading this book can really enjoy this chapter, because now Loki's dead.
R.I.P Loki. We love you.
Please, vote, comment, and stay amazing!
