Killer Queen ~ Loki Laufeyson

Chapter five

Loki didn't go to dinner that night.

Tony asked where he was and Thor just said that he wasn't coming. No one said anything else about it. I don't know why but something inside me knew that I had done something.

Why should I care if I had done something to Loki. He deserves it. He's an arrogant little...

"Hey, the movies finished" Nat taps me on the shoulder and I had realised that I hadn't been paying attention to what was on the screen.

On my way back to my room I came across an open door. It was like nearly half way open so I decided to go and take a look. The room looked a lot like my but just a bit smaller. It had dark bedding and everything was neat and tidy. Jeez someone sure does take care of it in here. I walk up to the dresser and I see a picture of beautiful women with wavy hair that was pinned in a half up half down. She was wearing some odd clothing. It seemed to be as odd as the clothes Thor wears.

And Loki.

"What do you think you're doing?", I whip round to see Loki frowning down at me from the doorway.

"Is that you're mother?" I say pointing at the picture on the desk.

"Don't dodge the question. Why are you here?" His tone is deathly serious as he stoops towards me.

"Your door was open" I reply as he comes so close my back presses the wall. He leans down to reach my eye level.

"Liar" He sneers.

"I'm not fucking lying" I spit back and his eyes start to narrow.

His hand wraps around my throat as a smirk appears on his face. My eyes widen as I stare him straight in the eyes. I shake my head and grab hold of the knife that was hidden in my belt. My slight of hand needs a lot more work as he notices and snatches the blade out of my hand.

"I'm not afraid you" I utter.

Without letting go of my neck he puts the tip of the knife under my chin, tilting it upwards. He leans down to my ear as he whispers, "Then why is your heart racing?". His words ring in my ears.

"Fuck you" I hiss back as I knee him in the stomach, causing him to stumble backwards. I push him down with my foot and press it into his chest. I lean down and press my knife harsh against his throat. "I'm going to walk out of here and you're not going to fucking touch me".

All Loki does is furrow his brows, something like a smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth as I get off of him. I start walking to the door until I feel a tugging at my ankle. I am dragged to the floor, my chest hitting it hard. I let out a scream. Before I can turn around Loki's knee is pushing into my back and I let out a cry.

"How dare you talk to me like that" He sneers, pressing his knee into my back harder.

"Get the fuck off of me" I shout as I try and squirm out of his grasp.

"Or what? 'everyone dies'" He mimics me from the first time we met, "Pathetic" he says with a laugh.

I flip onto my back so Loki is now squatting over me. I kick my legs back and wrap them around his neck. Driving him into the floor I grab the knife from his hand and I get ready to take a swipe at his neck.

"Do it!" He shouts, "Kill me. I know you want to". His smile deepens as he inhales deeply. My jaw clenches as I raise the knife higher.

"What in the nine realms is going on here!"

I turn around to see Thor staring in horror at me over Loki, a knife raised high in the air. I instantly drop the knife and hear it clatter to the ground. I push myself off of Loki and Thor walks over to me.

"Go Loki!" Thor booms as I sink to my knees.

"No, this is my room" Loki squeals, "She tried to kill me" He says accusingly.

"You were making me, forcing me" I spit towards Loki

"Now Loki!" Thor shouts once more before kneeling in front of me, taking my hands in his face.

I relax my head onto his chest as I sigh "Please don't tell the others, I don't want to go back" I raise my head to look at Thor and he pulls me into a hug.

"You have my word my lady, I know Loki and his manipulation" We stay their for what seems like hours until Thor walks me back to my room. "Are you sure you are going to be okay?" He questions.

"I'm sure" I smile, "Thank you, for everything"

"No worries my lady. Now get some sleep, it'll be good for you" Thor says and he walks away.

I shut my door and go in to the bathroom. I turn on the bath and just stand there. Motionless. Just watching the water fill up the bath. My face empty with expression. Once the bath is filled, I strip and get in. I hug my legs in close. I ran my fingertips over my arms, feeling the buzz it sent through my arm. My thoughts rack in my brain. I was about to do it. I was about to kill him. I wasn't going to stop myself. I was going to slice his throat. I was going to watch the blood spew from his neck and the life drain from his face.

That night I didn't dream. My mind was incapable. All I saw was darkness. That's what waited for my once my eyes closed.
