Lady Raven {A Loki Fanfic}

𒊹︎Chapter 12𒊹︎

Raven's POV

Darkness. Its the only thing that's stuck with me this entire time. Through thick and thin, my darkness has always been there. It helped me, controlled me and never left me.

"Our Raven," A man said, "has awoken."

"Ready to comply."

"Your mission is to eliminate these creatures," he said showing me an image of a green alien. "They are called Skrulls and are not welcome on our planet. You and the Winter Soldier will go together and fight them as a team."

"Understood."

My first mission. This was going to be fun. I would be able to use my new powers with no consequences. I also get to meet someone new. I was told he was my friend, my brother and I was excited to meet him. My master created me, an invention to kill. To save the planet.

A man stepped into the room with a cold stare.

"You must be the Winter Soldier," I said.

"And you must be Raven," he replied.

"You two should get to know each other, you'll be spending a lot of time together," the man said.

We were taken to a van and driven to where the suspected area of the Skrull was. Me and Winter boy didn't speak much he just stared at me all weirdly.

"What's your name?" I asked him.

"The Winter Soldier," he answered.

"Well no shit, but that's a mouthful surely you have another name I could use. Something shorter than the Winter Soldier," I told him.

"Why don't you make me a name, which only you can call me," he said.

I looked at his arm, which was made out of metal. It reminded me of this band that I was told about. Metallica.

"James. I'm going to call you James," I told him.

"Why James?"

"The lead singer out of a band I know," I said as he smirked.

The van stopped and we both stepped out. I was excited to fight. James held his arm out and I took it. We looked badass in our matching outfits. The only difference was mine was more tighter and had two sleeves whereas his was baggy with only one sleeve.

"Ready James?" I looked at him.

"Yes ma'am," He turned to me.

We both started shooting. Skrulls knew how to fight so the alien wouldn't run away from us. It wasn't long before we found him. The game was on.

I knew that these aliens could morph into stuff but they weren't very dangerous. That just made me wonder why we didn't like them. They gave us no reason to kill them, but the mission was the mission.

The fight was simple and boring, I definitely got my hopes up way too high. We were brought back to home and the boss man let me and James chill in a room together so we could 'bond'. It was quite hard bonding when you had someone who had as much emotion as a brick wall.

"Did you enjoy the fight today?" I broke the silence.

"Not really" he said.

"Oh right."

The silence was so loud I was cringing from the inside out. James wouldn't say anything he would just stare.

"Why are you looking at me like that for?" I finally asked.

"Like what?" He scoffed.

"You know like this," I mimicked his stare and he smirked.

"I don't look at you like that," he said.

"Yes you do, bitch I will record you for the whole day. You are always staring through your eyebrows. Its weird," I chuckled.

"Its not weird."

"It is."

Our first bonding session. James seemed alright after we started talking. A few hours passed and we were separated into our own rooms.

My room was jet black, how typical. They really went for that Raven theme. There was a decent sized bed in the corner and a bathroom. It was actually quite nice. Everything was coloured coordinated and organised.

I hopped into the much needed shower. I turned the temperature onto max because my muscles ached from earlier. The steaming hot water cascaded down my hair, burning my skin as it trickled across my body. I washed my hair and body briskly and stood there for a bit.

I thought about the outside world and all the things I'm missing out on. I wished I could explore and meet new people. James was fun and all but he could be very introverted.

I got out the shower and got into some pajamas. Those were black and silk. These people must be rich or something, holy shit.

"Raven, I have your dinner," a girl knocked on the door.

"Thanks," I said as she left.

Sandwiches. My favourite.

After eating the soggy, cold, tuna sandwiches, I sunk back into my bed and it wasn't long before I fell asleep.

I woke up in the middle of the night, hearing a scream. My first thought was James. I quickly got up and blew the door down with some wind. I ran towards where the screaming was coming from and stormed into the room. It was James. He was having a nightmare.

"JAMES! James, James, James," I shook him, trying to wake him up.

He gasped as he was released from his dream and looked at me confused.

"What are you doing here Raven?" He asked.

"I heard you screaming and got worried and I wanted to make sure you were okay and then poof I was magically here," I replied to him.

His face softened then immediately got defensive.

"You should leave," he said.

"James I think you need me here with-" I started.

"Raven just go," he said a bit too loudly.

"My apologies," I quickly left his room.
