Loki X Reader

Raphael's Return

"I thought her name was Mary?" You said

"It's taken me a while to process this, but he's had Miss Potts under possession for months now. The possessive Cyndarian was called Mary, which is why she kept getting Mad at me and being such a horrid woman in general. I'm surprised her body hasn't destroyed itself by now."

"So what do we do?"

"We tell them to get ready for a lots of fire and a lot more screaming."

"And what about us?"

"We call Skulduggery and ask him to protect you-"

"I'm not a baby!" You snapped.

"And I'm not going to lose you again to that demon! I've had enough with his persistence to make you his and if that means hiding you from him I am willing to go for that chance to protect you!" Loki shouted, staring at you. You could see tears lining his eyes. "I don't want you to get hurt or die and Skulduggery can only do one of those things!"

"But I've changed! You know how much power I have now! I'm more capable of protecting myself!"

"I don't care! I have made my decision to keep you out of harm's way and that is how I'm keeping it!" He snapped, glaring at you. You suddenly felt an overwhelming need to cry. You stepped back slightly, tears almost making it too hard to see.

"Fuck you!" You yelled. You looked at him carefully, before storming out, and out of the hallway. No one would notice you going missing for a while... They were all too busy trying to figure out what Lucifer doing.

You walked to the balcony, and propelled yourself into the air. Being afraid of heights wouldn't help you much now, but you needed to get away before you lashed out at something. Once your were sure you had enough concentration, you soared forwards, away from the tower. You zoomed past your window, seeing Loki sitting on the bed, head in his hands. You didn't feel a pang of regret about what you did. You pushed yourself forward, going faster. The tears that were forming were whisked away in the wind as you propelled around the buildings of manhattan, crying a little bit.

--

After a while, you landed in Battery Park, and made your way to a bench. You pulled your hoodie zipper up and pulled the hood onto your head. God, your eyes stung. Your face was sore from getting flecks of dirt smashed into it at 50 kilometres and hour. You were just so tired. Sleeping in a park would be frowned upon, but it was broad daylight. Your eyes closed for a while.

As you woke up, the sun was beginning to set. There were a few people walking about, and you sighed as a couple walked past. Loki was probably freaking out at the moment..

"Hey." Said a familliar voice. You turned, looking at the same person you danced with at the Coronation ball.

"Raphael?" You mumbled. "What are you doing here?" You stood up. He just shrugged. He was dressed like a normal teenager, except for his fiery red eyes.

"Abadon sent me. She wanted me to check on you."

"Tell her I'-"

"Come back with me." He said, grabbing your forearms.

"Wha- no! No, I'm staying here."

"Midgard isn't safe for y-"

"Midgard is my home."

"Midgard is a plague. It's nothing but a sickness in the universe." He said.

"It's just how I like it. Raphael, I'm not leaving Midgard, just like I'm not going to sit and wait for Lucifer to attack this realm."

"Yes," He said. "You are." Hr started reaching for your mouth and you smacked him.

"No I'm not." You snapped, turning on your feel. "You... how do you know about Lucifer anyway?"

"You will or Miss Potts gets dropped." He said.

You hesitated before answering him. "Dropped from where?" You said.

"The tallest building. Mary's got her up there and she's ready to throw her off as soon as I call her. I'm surprised neither Lucifer nor myself noticed she's been possessed for so long. It's probable tha-"

"You're a traitor." You mumbled, before turning to punch him "You're a traitor! Abadon trusted you! Lilith trusted you! You're the nobility of the realm and you betrayed them!" You screamed, attracting the gaze of many passers by. You aimed the left handed punch for his nose, but he grabbed it, twisting your arm and flipping you over. You cried out as you fell to the concrete, clutching your arm. Lucifer kicked it away and stomped. You screamed in pain.

"You thought I was on your side? Really? You are weak. You rely on others too much." A crowd was beginning to form, Some people got out their phones to record things." You've been helped by Hel, but strip that power away what are you? Just a little girl, trying to fight a war that's too advanced even for her. You don't have any power of your own. And Loki. He's just the worst. He is cunning and full of lies. You mean nothing to him. You're just his pet. Oh, dear Satana, how hard is it to realise that I hated y-" He rambled.

"Shut up." You hissed between gritted teeth. "Shut up!" You kicked backwards, leg catching his groin. He lurched backwards, shouting. You pulled yourself upwards, left arm hanging uselessly at your side. "I was an idiot, thinking I could trust you, I wanted to call you. I see that now, even after I though 'hey, he's cute,' I was wrong. There is nothing cute about you. A girl's gotta defend for herself, right? Okay, well here I go." You kicked Raphael's hand just as he was preparing a fireball.

"I am not weak." You say, kicking his other arm and stomping down. Raphael cried out.

"I am not a scared little girl." You say as you grab him by the collar of his jacket and throw him back to the ground. He sprawls out across the concrete.

"I am not Loki's pet." You say, kicking his arms down, and sitting on his chest. Fire cannot survive without an air supply. You leaned in closer to his face, grabbing it with your good hand. "I am his partner in crime. I am his girlfriend. You're the pet. Lucifer's pet." You hiss, dropping his dead and hitting it with a right cross. Raphael's eyes roll back into his head as he goes unconscious. You stand up, getting an applause from the crowd that had formed. "Don't applaud me. Just leave. Leave the city. Something is coming, and I doubt the Avengers can stop it. Unless you're some otherworldly being with some magic or something, you've got no chance. The Avengers, myself- even Loki, we probably won't make it out of that fight alive. Get out of the city while you can."

"She's right you know." Came Loki's voice. you turned to see him, and he flashed you a grin. The crowd murmured. "I don't want her to get in it, but I also don't want her to become severely upset that millions of people died. Mr Stark is making an announcement as we speak."
