Thank you for nothing, you useless reptile (Loki x Y/N)

Rescuing the Nadders

Feeling the rush of cold air flow all around you making your cheeks cold, you dig though your bag that is across your body to try and find you map. Despite being Tony Starks daughter, his tech doesn't work as well in some of the 9 realms, so you have to resort to the old fashioned way of doing things sometimes. Jotunheim. You hated it here, despite riding a dragon which is basically a giant flying hot water bottle and your 3 layers of clothing, the cold still pierces your skin like a thousand tiny daggers. You finally find the map you are looking for and opened it up while giving Astral a scratch behind her ears, feeling the vibration of her deep purring on your legs. 

"Ok girl, let's see how much further." You say to your dragon in a soft voice so only she can hear you. You scan the map to try and figure out where you are before you hear Astral grumble lowly. You look up from the map to find you both approaching some ruins, quickly you put the map away in your bag lowering yourself so your chest is against her neck trying to make sure you are hidden from any danger. It was normal for dragons to fly around the 9 realms, but a dragon with a rider on it was a different story. You are still scanning the area around you both when you hear a deadly nadder calling out, sounding distressed. You give Astral a small tap on the back of her neck and she looks around at you. You signal with your arm to follow to noise and Astral turns to her right to follow the noise. Still staying low you spot the dragon that seemed to be calling out moments before and you pull Astral to a stop, signaling her to circle around the dragon from above. Astral flies in a large circle as you watch the dragon. It had its tail clamped in a metal cylinder to stop it from using it's spines. The dragon looked weak, it's eyes almost shut and stomach rising and falling too slowly. You observe the injured dragon try to stand up and growling at the caves behind it. A person walks out from the cave and you gasp, pulling on your saddle to get Astral to some mountains close by. She latches onto the side on the mountain and you turn your head to the side trying to look over to the dragon and the person. You see the person hitting the cage with a sword yelling at the dragon to quiet down.

"How is there a human on Jotunheim? The Frost Giants should have found him by now, where are they all?" you say to yourself, but get a growl from Astral as she moves her head to the side, you follow her gaze and spot some Frost Giants approaching on the left side of the mountain. Then you see some more closing in from the right side of the mountain. Feeling uneasy you grab your daggers from your saddle bag and strap one into your thigh holster and go to put the other one in the holster around your arm.  Suddenly, you feel a freezing sensation around your wrist and scream, dropping your dagger as you are pulled off Astral's back onto a small ledge of the mountain you were latched onto. You look up to be faced with Laufey, his red eyes squinting at you as Astral gets herself onto the ledge and stands next to you with her wings out and tail around the space of the floor you are sitting on, standing in a protective position. You hold your wrist in your other hand and suck in a deep breath through your teeth.

"Shit Laufey, you knew it was me. Why would you grab my arm!" you half yell at him. He squints his eyes at you in an annoyed way as you slowly stand up. 

"You aren't home anymore dragon rider, you know you shouldn't be here." Laufey says in a low voice trying to sound threatening. It's working, he was almost twice your height after all. You roll your eyes at him and point down to the cage at the bottom of the mountain. 

"I'm on a rescue mission Laufey, you agreed to let me use your lands for the benefit of the dragons, that is what I am doing. Why is there a human here anyway. More importantly how did he have enough time to trap a nadder before you figured out he was here!" you are yelling at this point, slightly annoyed at Laufey and slightly in pain as you are a wear of the frozen feeling in your arm. Laufey takes one step back and looks at your hands which you didn't even realize were glowing yellow now. You follow his eyes to your hand and sigh, shutting off your powers and look back over to Laufey. 

"Sorry." you say quietly crossing your arms in front of your chest. Laufey nods in response to your apology before answering your questions and turning to face the cave entrance as he talks.

"He went undetected for 3 days, we do not know how and it is not just that nadder. The caves he just came out of are full of them, at least 15 nadders." He says with a touch of sorrow in his voice. You assume its because this man was able to capture all these dragons leaving Laufey none the wiser while the dragons suffered. Frost Giants weren't the sentimental type, but they cared about the dragons still. You think for a few seconds before and idea pops into your head and you walk over to Astral. 

"Ok here is the plan." you say to Laufey and get your notebook out of your saddlebag along with a pen.

You fly out of the caves yelling with victory as the nadders fly out behind you and Astral laughing as Astral roars happily with the nadders all fly off in the direction of their home. Astral flies into a loop and slows leaving you upside down for a while as you laugh. She levels out and you direct her down to the ground where Laufey and the Frost Giants are standing. Once she lands you slowly get of her back and take a step forward to Laufey smiling. 

"Thank you, those dragons are now safe thanks to your help." you smile at the Frost Giants and their leader waiting for him to do or say something. Instead Laufey just shuts his eyes and kneels in front of you with his arm across his chest and his head lowered. The other Frost Giants follow their leader in kneeling down for you and you let out a soft chuckle at the sight before bowing your head to them in return and climbing onto Astral again. You straighten up and jokingly salute Laufey which earns you a deep chuckle. You smile again and take to the skies once again giving Astral another scratch behind her ear.

"What do you say we head home girl?" you say to her while smiling brightly at the thought of going home and seeing your dad again along with all the other Avengers. It had been a month since you last saw them after all. Astral roars happily at the suggestion as I turn her to the left and smile in anticipation of seeing my family and summon your magic to try and heal your frostbite on the way home.

You finally make it to New York after using the Bifrost to get from Jotunheim to Midgard. When you helped Thor and Odin get some speed stingers out of the city, Odin gave you a golden compass that summons the Bifrost when ever I needed it. It definitely made it easier to save the dragons when I could get the any realm in a matter or seconds. It also helped Astral not have to fly so far all the time. You put the compass back into your saddlebag and start to descend from the clouds down to New York Home sweet home you think in your head. As soon as Astral is clear of the clouds and you open your eyes you let out a small scream and Astral stops flying. You both have a moment of confusion. Are you dreaming? All around the buildings of New York there are small flying creatures you have never seen before. They were ugly that's for sure. You keep looking around in horror at the smoke pouring out of buildings and spotted fires around the city. Suddenly you hear a massive roar and Astral turns to see what it was and that is when you first notice the blue beam going from the top of the Avengers tower to the clouds and a giant flying monster emerges from the clouds roaring again. 

"Holy shit."
