Panic Room || On Hold

Tricking The God of Mischief

INT. HELICARRIER DETENTION SECTION � NIGHT

Loki walks back and forth inside his glass cell. Suddenly, he stops.

LOKI
There's not many people that can sneak up on me.

(turns to see Sage standing there and for a second you could see a flicker of green take over his eyes and his face almost confused before it is quickly back to the icy blue color and face)

"His eyes changed" luna pointed out while thor looks down at the fact that he didn't notice it before.

Sage
But you figured I'd come.

LOKI
After. After whatever tortures Fury can concoct, you would appear as a friend, as a balm. And I would cooperate.

Sage
I wanna know what you've done to Agent Barton.

LOKI
I'd say I've expanded his mind.

Sage
And once you've won. Once you're king of the mountain. What happens to his mind?

"why would you even ask that it's like you want him to win" the weasle i mean ronald says

LOKI
Is this love, Agent Romanoff?
(he means it as parental/platonic love)

Sage
Love is for children. I owe him a debt.

"you don't own me anything," Clint said to the young girl he sees as a sister.

while enzo looks sad at the fact she called love for children. does this mean she won't ever love me he thinks. almost as if she knew when his negative thoughts were she held his hand giving him a smile and whispering "this was before i met you. -all" she paused before she realized what it could sound like adding the 'all'

Loki (SITTING DOWN)
Tell me.

Sage (she pulls up a chair as well)
Before I worked for SHIELD, I uh...well, I made a name for myself. I have a very specific skillset. I didn't care who I used it for, or on. I got on SHIELD's radar in a bad way. Agent Barton was sent to kill me, he made a different call.

What? Everyone was confused considering how close sage and clint seem even the avengers where confused not knowing that fact.

LOKI
And what will you do if I vow to spare him?

Sage
Not let you out.

Loki (LAUGHS)
Ah, no. But I like this. Your world in the balance, and you bargain for one man?

Sage
Regimes fall every day. I tend not to weep over that, I'm Russian... or was.

"You are BRITISH" Mrs. weasle yelled. "we'll at the time i did not know" sage replied back which made so many confused how could The Sage Potter not know her own nationality

LOKI
What is it you want?

Sage
It's really not that complicated. I've got red in my ledger, I'd like to wipe it out.

LOKI
Can you? Can you wipe out that much red? DRAKOV'S daughter? S�O PAULO? THE HOSPITAL FIRE? Barton told me everything. Your ledger is dripping, it's gushing red, and you think saving a man no more virtuous than yourself will change anything?

(STANDING; ANGRY)
This is the basest sentimentality. This is a child at prayer... PATHETIC!

(INTERCUTS)
- Tony and Banner continuously work at their monitors.

LOKI (V.O.)
You lie and kill in the service of liars and killers.

- Agent Hill checks every VIEWSCREEN in the bridge. Fury oversees.

LOKI (V.O.)
You pretend to be separate, to have your own code, something that makes up for the horrors. But they are a part of you, and they will never go away!

- Steve opens a STEEL crate. Angry, he looks behind him and looks back into the crate. THE CRATE IS FILLED WITH AN ARRAY OF HYDRA WEAPONS.

INT. HELICARRIER DETENTION SECTION � NIGHT

Loki SLAMS his cell, making Sage FLINCH.

LOKI
I won't touch Barton. Not until I make him kill you! Slowly. Intimately. In every way he knows you fear! And when he'll wake just long enough to see his good work, and when he screams, I'll split his skull! This is my bargain, you mewling quim!

"LOKI!" thor yelled at his brother for his language. "i'm sorry lady Sage i was not in my right mind but that does not excses what i said." loki was quick to say. "it's okay it in the past and as you said you were mind controlled." sage tells the god.

Sage turns around, walks away from Loki, disgusted.

Sage (QUIETLY; DISTRAUGHT)
You're a monster.

LOKI (LAUGHS)
No, you brought the monster.

Sage
(turns back around; poised)
So, Banner... that's your play.

LOKI
(STAGGERED)
What?

"di-did you just trick the god of mischief!" the weasley twins, the so called silver quad, which is Draco Blaise Theo and Enzo, asked baffled at the possiblity of that happening. Remus though had a smile she truly did have james and sirius mischief while the black dog by her feet looked smug, if it's possible for a dog to.

Sage
(ON EARPIECE)
Loki means to unleash the Hulk. Keep Banner in the lab, I'm on my way. Send Thor as well.

(TO LOKI)
Thank you for your cooperation.

Sage quickly walks out, leaving Loki frozen.

"to this day you are the second person who has ever been able to trick me" Loki says while trying to fully remember who it was that first tricked him only to come up with a blurry brunette man with blue-ish eyes full of mischief and a bright smile that even with it not being fully clear brought a smile to loki's face.

after loki said the second person sage everyone and even thor wondered who that other person was. thor even more seeing the happy look on his little siblings face.
