Black wings

Chapter 50

I DON'T OWN PICTURE

In mere seconds Ivy is in same height as smirking Flora. "I will kill you." Ivy growl and throw fireball toward her. She laugh and dodge her attack. "I had to admit that your aunt's wings were beautiful. It was messy to get them off before others found her." She taunt her. Ivy sneer and dive after her. She pull out a dagger too and start to defend against Ivy. She nevertheless quickly overpower Flora. Ivy disarm her and kick her though concrete wall to next room. She throw two daggers to nail her in wall through her wings. When they hit, she scream in agony. Ivy walk inside room though hole and look at her with flaming eyes.

Flora seem to realize that she has awakened something that is way over her league and paled. "Please... don't...." She sob. Ivy ignore her pleads and pull out her sword. "I will cut you in little pieces so you will beg something so sweet as dead from me before the end." She promise darkly. Flora's eyes widen and she try to reach toward other dagger put even little movement cut her wings more and cause incredible pain. "You hunted and tortured someone dear to me. I gave you several chances to turn back. Now you see what is end of that road you chose." She growl and raise her sword. "IVY!" She ignore the yell and swing. "STOP!" Loki command and teleport between her and Flora. 

Ivy barely manage to stop her sword before it cut Loki's skin. She leave it against his neck, holding her sneer. "Get out of my way Loki." She growl. "No." "Move!" "Please stop." She snarl to him as answer. "You don't want to do this. You told me how you hated that person you was in past. Please, stop." He try to reason with her. She stare at his pleading eyes and slowly her sneer disappear. "Ivy..." He plead quietly and brush his fingers against her cheek. "She is not worth to destroy your heart." She feel how tears come in her eyes because of his words and drop her sword. "Loki.." She whimper and collapse on his chest. He wrap his arms around her and kiss top of her head. "It is okay. I am here. It is over." He comfort her. She grab hem of his jacket in fists while hiding her face in his chest. "It is over." He whisper comforting.

Ivy pull back and smile to Loki. "I love you." "I love you too pet." He lean to give her gentle kiss after his confession. "I will get my revenge." She hear Flora's whisper and peek over his shoulder. Her eyes widen in horror. She has bag in her hand with victorious smirk. "You lost." She mouth and move her arm. In next moment Ivy whip them around so hole is directly behind Loki and pull back from kiss. "I love you." She whisper and push him out with help of air magic. In same moment that he is out of room, bag hit her back and red fairydust burst in air. Ivy groan and throw flames around room to burn as much as possible away. Her magic get smothered down in record time and she drop on one knee.

Flora laugh maniacally. "You are death Stormborn. It had my fairydust with water nymph's blood. I have another dose for your lover as well." She promise darkly. Ivy force her eyes open and notice that all fairydust in room is gone. She hear Loki's yell and his running footsteps. She grit her teeth and draw dagger out same time as she stand up. "This end in us Flora." She say between her gritted teeth while turning to face her. Flora's smile drop when she notice her dagger. "You don't have enough strength to kill me." She try to convince herself. Ivy smile tiredly and jump in move. With one swift movement she push his arms out of way with one hand and hit the dagger through his heart with other hand. She stop to lean against dying young fairy. "I'm truly sorry about what you had became. It was my fault that I failed to safe you." She whisper in her ear. "Red...Wolf." Flora whisper and die.

Ivy feel how Flora's blood pour in her hands while she fell limp. She let go of dagger's hilt and take step back. Her leg gave up under her, her wings disappear and she start to fall, too weak to even try to stop herself. "Ivy!" Loki yell in fear and catch her from waist. She lean limply against him and turn slowly to look at his worried eyes. "It is over." She whisper and smile weakly. He pick her in his arms. "What happened? Are you injured?" He ask in fear and look her quickly over. "Fairydust." She answer quietly. His eyes widen and soon his antidote bag appear in her lap. "Wait a minute I will-" "No." "What do you mean no? You need-" "Loki.." She cut him weakly off again. 

He turn to look at her and she shake her head. "It won't help.... Not this time." She explain. He stare at her in horror. "The pond... Take me to pond." She ask. He steel himself and nod. Soon they are in water. She look weakly around and notice that they are top of that platform they spend the night. "Armor..." He take her armor off with magic and sit down. She lean her head against his shoulder, too weak to support it. "Your magic powers will return in here and you can fight against that dust, right?" He ask her desperate. "Thank you." He shake his head to her answer. "Don't." He grunt. "You saved my heart, in more way than you can imagine." She smile weakly to him. 

"I shouldn't have stopped you, this is my fault." Loki growl and hang his head over Ivy's limp body. "This isn't your fault, I am grateful that you did that." She answer. "My fault." He grunt and grit his teeth when first tears slide down. She gather her strength and raise right hand to cup his cheek. He sob and lean gently on it. "This is not your fault, don't ever blame yourself." She command as sternly as she could. Ragged sob come out. "You remember what we talk last night?" "You won't die!" He snap weakly and turn to look at her pleadingly. "I have water nymphs blood and fairydust in my veins, I can't survive." She explain and smile sadly. 

Ivy's hand start to fall and Loki catch it in his own and hold it against his cheek. "You promised that you won't leave me!" "I know." "You promised to never lie to me." He sob. "I know." She answer and feel tears form in her eyes too. "Don't leave me alone." He plead with broken voice. "I don't want to." She sob. "Ivy..." "I love you Loki. You deserve to find happiness, don't give up on hope." She plead. "I already found my happiness. I don't want anyone else." She smile through her tears. "Don't wait for me." He shake his head. "Promise me you will move on, that you will continue to help Avengers, that you will meet your mother again." She plead. "Don't ask that from me." He beg.

Loki's beg break Ivy's heart. Her proud, strong God beg from her. "You need to let me go." "No." He whimper and lean his forehead against hers. "Let me go." "I can't." He sob. "You must." She plead. He kiss her already colder lips. "Don't." He sob against them. "I always love you." She promise. "Promise me." She beg and curl her fingers against his cheek. "Promise me." "I promise." He say with thick voice. She smile and her lids start to force their way down. She didn't feel her hands or legs anymore. "Left me in water." She whisper. "No, please don't leave me. Little longer, please." He beg. She force her eyes open one more time. "Don't forget that promise. I left something to you in our bedroom." She say lastly and close her eyes. She feel how he press their lips together and wonder how his lips feel warm against her owns and how wrong it felt before darkness take her.
