Better Than You (Loki x Reader)

The Goddess of Death

       They held onto each other as they kept falling for what seemed like forever. (Y/N) kept her head in the crook of Loki's neck as they kept falling. "Dove, it's fine. We're simply falling, whoever knows where," Loki did his telepathy thing with her. She nodded, "I know. It's just if I look at whatever repeats pass up I will probably throw up. I don't want to ruin your suit." That was a reason. All they knew was falling, and not where they were going to end up, so they decided to just talk for a while.

     "We ruled for about...4 years. It was a very wonderful time to rule with you," (Y/N) said to him. He asked, "Was it the same as me ruling Midgard with you?" "No. This was so much more fun then that experience, but I still love both of them." Eris finally said something to (Y/N) after all this time. "It seems that Earth has new protectors, and you both are on their list. His name is Doctor Stephen Strange," She explained. "Thor was talking to him, and he found out where Odin was. Only reason was to get you and Loki off of Earth in a hurry, so you should be getting there...now." "What?" She could feel her smirk as they Loki screamed out, and then they both felt hard wood on their backs. 

     "I have been falling for thirty minutes!!" "At least I won't puke on Loki's suit.." A voice softly came into tune as she got up, helping Loki up as well, "You can handle them from here" "Yes, Of course. Thank you very much for your help." She could see just from the look of offense on Loki's face that she had to hold him back. "Handle me? Who are you?" He panted out. Right there he whipped out two daggers to try and scare Doctor Strange, "Love..." "You think you're some kind of sorcerer? Don't think for one minute, you second rate-" He ignored it all and sent them on their way through the portal he made. 

       They all stood in a grassy field now, the wind blowing slightly. Looking behind them there he was, Odin was standing by the edge of the cliff, like was waiting for them. Thor started to walk towards them as well as Loki, but (Y/N) stayed back after kissing his cheek. In the corner of her eye, she saw Eris float beside her looking quite sad, "Eris..." She shook her head. Her attention was back towards the three of them by the cliff as Odin said, "My sons....and daughter in law, I've been waiting for you." What did he just say? She walked a bit closer just to hear what was going on. He then said, "Your mother, she calls me. Do you hear it?" (Y/N) was the first one to realize what was happening. "Took me quite a while to break free from your spell," He turned to Loki. "Frigga would've been proud. Come and sit with me, I don't have much time." They all sat on a nearby rock, until he turned to (Y/N) who was still standing afar just to not barge into family business. Odin turned to her, "All of you.."

     She took that and sat down next to Loki, holding his hand tightly for what's to come. Thor started, "I know we failed you, but we can make this right." "I failed you...It is upon us, Ragnarok." "No, I stopped Ragnarok. I put an end to Surtur," Thor replied. Anyone could tell that Thor was getting desperate, they all were with his tone of voice. Odin shook his head, "No, it has already begun. She's coming. My life was all that held her back, but my time has come. I can't keep her away any longer." "Father, who are you talking about?" "Goddess of Death. Hela. My firstborn. Your sister." (Y/N)'s eyes widen and glanced over at Thor, who looked back over at Loki and her. He keeps all types of secrets from everyone, doesn't he? He explained further, "Her violent appetites grew beyond my control. I couldn't stop her, so I imprisoned her. Locked her away. She draws her strength from Asgard, and once she gets there, her powers will be limitless." Thor voice cracked slightly, but you could barely notice it, "Whatever she is, we can stop her together. We can face her together." "No, we won't. I'm on a different path now. This you must face alone." He was really going to die now. His final words were very different from others. "I love you, my sons," Loki looked over at him with her eyes filled with tears. With that he was gone. The three of them watching him turn into gold particles to go to Frigga as he wanted from the cliffside. 

     The wind started to blow harder, and (Y/N) looked around to feel it. She caught Thor's expression change from sad to angry in a split minute. Thunder was then heard as well, punctuating on his current feelings. "Loki.." She whispered to him, and pointed to Thor. His hands were generating a bit of lightning. "Brother.." "This was your doing" His tone was deep and quiet. (Y/N) opened her mouth to speak to him, but Thor got the first word, "And you helped him" A minute passed of thunder filled sky, but a larger thing appeared, a green and black portal. From the warnings that Odin left, it was of course suppose to be Hela. Putting their fight on the back burner, they all walked forward and changed into their battle suits.

       A woman with pale skin, dark black hair, green eyes, and wearing a black suit walked out with an evil smile on her face. (Y/N) looked confused looking at her and used her telepathy, "Are you sure that you're the adopted one, Loki?" He didn't answer her. She spoke, "So he's gone. That's a shame I would've like to have seen that." "You must be Hela," Thor took a step. "I'm Thor, son of Odin." "Really? You don't look like him," She said. Loki took a step as well, "Perhaps we can come to an arrangement" "You sound like him....and a sister in law? A goddess as well?" Her eyes landed on (Y/N) which made Loki tighten his grip on her hand. (Y/N) didn't back down, only stared at her back. "Kneel," She simply said. Both Loki and (Y/N) were bewildered at that sudden statement. 

      She then summoned a sword with a simple hand movement, "Kneel. Before your queen." "I don't think so," Thor threw his hammer at her, but she held onto it. It was trying to go past her hand, but she caught it like it was nothing. (Y/N) gasped, "She..." "It's not possible." Hela shook her head, "Darling, you have no idea what's possible." Her hand gripped the hammer enough to make cracks in it's side. (Y/N) took action to put up a shield to protect all of them as the hammer exploded in a blinding light of lightning. The light faded to show the hammer now in pieces on the ground, and Hela suiting up with two swords in each hand. "We need to retreat," (Y/N) said to the both.  Loki took her advice, yelling up to Skurge, "Bring us back!" "No!" Thor tried to run up to her and fight, but the Bifrost beat him to it.

         They all went flying towards Asgard in the way of the Bifrost, having Hela hot on their trail. (Y/N) looked down, "Loki!" Hela was getting to close to him for comfort. He threw a dagger at her, but she caught it and threw it right back at him. (Y/N) screamed out for Loki as he fell out of the Bifrost, turning her angry glare at Hela who was catching up with her. As Hela caught up to (Y/N), she tried to throw her out of her way as well, but (Y/N) stood her ground towards her. Her hands grabbed her shoulders to headbutt her with as much strength, which did stun her for a moment before she smirked at her. She tried to punch Hela in the jaw, but she caught her hand to then throw her out the Bifrost. She then passed out once her head hit pure space.
