The explosion sends us all flying in different directions, me, steve and Tony hit the wall and fall to the ground while Banner and Natasha are blasted through the window and down some floors, Nick hurried to the main place to see what had just happened and Thor comes straight to me.

Edith:
"Put on the suit". I say to Stark as he quickly gets himself up off the floor.

Stark:
"Yep". Steve helps him up as they scramble up off of the floor and rush off stumbling down the corridor.

Thor:
"Edith, You okay". He says while pulling me gently to my feet, grabbing my arms and helping me up.

Edith:
"Yeah im fine, come on we need to check on Loki." I say before jogging out the door with Thor following closely behind.

~~~~~~~~

We burst through the doors to where Loki's circular transparent cell was, we both gasp as we see Loki's cell door beginning to open.

Thor:
"No!". Thor rushes forward to push Loki back into his cell but falls right through him, he jumps up instantly as the cell door closes on him. He is trapped, but if i can sneak to that button i can get him out.

Edith:
"Thor!, hold on". I shout over to him as i begin to run over to the control panel that practically calls out my name, i reach out to it but before i can hit the button a strong hand grabs my arm and throws me back, i let out a small yelp as my back is pressed to Loki's torso, his arm holding me tightly around my neck, but not strong enough to strangle me to death, just enough to make it unable to escape. I try my best to pull his strong arm from my neck with both my hands, but he dosent even twitch. I look from the corner of my eye to see him holding his scepter securely. He laughs down at me grunting. He looks up to Thor and smirks at his foolishness as he powerfully hits his hammer on the glass as it forms a small crack.

Loki:
"Are you ever not going to fall for that?"

Loki laughs at us both as he throws me down onto the floor beside him, i grunt as i hit the cold concrete floor. I catch my breath and sit up on my knees as Loki makes his way over to the control panel. He presses a button that opens the hatch underneath the cell as wind begins blasting into the room we all stand in. I look over to Thor in the white cell who stares intensely at Loki, im not going to let Loki throw Thor off of this aircraft. I quickly pick myself off of the floor and run toards Loki who reaches out to a bit glowing red button calling his name, i guess that releases the cell down out of the ship. I raise a fist to his back but before i know it the cell is released, and im being held up by Loki's hand on my neck, except this time i can feel his hand harshly tightening. My airways desperately searching for air, but none comes. Loki walks over to where the hatch is still open and holds me out above it. This cant be how it ends.

Loki:
"I'll do your father a favour, im going to enjoy watching you helplessly fall, you dull, plain, thing". With his free hand he harshly rips my jacket off of my torso and throws it down onto the concrete beside him, leaving my pointed ears to be exposed.
"You can never hide who you truly are, i know who you are, Malekith's daughter". He gives me an evil smirk before throwing me backwards down out of the hatch. I scream out hoping for someone to hear, anyone, but no one comes. Im left falling helplessly as i claw the air around me flowing through my fingers. Its not long before i can make out a big green feild. I can feel my death approaching, and feel my hope rushing out of me. I relax my body and softly close my eyes, preparing for this painful but quick impact. Or it could end up being a long exhausting excruciating death, but I refuse to believe that can ever possibly happen. The wind lashes the tears away from my cheeks almost feeling like bitter blades. Im no longer fighting for my life, no longer afraid, but theres always been this one thing i have been fighting to hold back all my life, my poisonous memories of my dark past. I believe everyone has a dark past, some accept them as a part of them, some fight for them not to return, which im fighting as hard as possible not for them memories to return as my death is on the brink. I know if i let my memories return it would overwhelm me, and there would be nothing stopping me from letting my powers erupt. The screaming wind wakes me from the battle i have with my thoughts as I clench my teeth in preparation for my death.
