Life of the New Avenger (Loki love story)

Part 8

As I cleaned the lab and got things ready for Loki's arrival, my Father called my mother back at stark tower and informed her and Pepper about what was going on at S.H.I.E.L.D. As my father talked and I finished up whipping down the last of the lab tables, my keen since of hearing picked up footsteps down the hall. Stopping in the middle of my task, I leaned in close and strained my ears to listen; I could slightly hear the rattle of chains and the treading of boots on the floor. It had to be Loki, turning to Dad I tried to get his attention to let him know Loki was here.

                "Dad..."

                "It's ok dear, everything will be ok...."

                "Dad..."

                "Yes ill make sure she's ok..... No I won't let her get too close to him..."

                "Dad.....Dad..."

                "O Come on dear that was one time..."

                "DAD,DAD,DAD,DAD!"

                "DANA I'M ON THE PHONE!"

                "uggggghhhhh"

At that moment a soft chuckle was heard in the hall outside the lab room, quickly I spun around just in time to see a man about 25 with dark raven black hair wearing green armor. His eyes were the brightest green I have ever seen and they were staring at me through the window. We locked eye contact for what felt like hours but could only have been a few seconds. His gaze was ripped away from mine when the guard behind him shoved him forward. Loki stumbled forward giving the guard a nasty look and a low growl before continuing on his way.

                "Eyes forward Loki, don't even think about messing with the Hulks daughter besides she's way out of your league anyway." The guard said with a small chuckle as he continued to shove Loki forward.

Loki tuned his head and continued to walk down the hall mumbling under his breath so quietly that the guard could not hear him but Dana could, her heightened hearing could hear exactly what he said.

                "I would never harm Dana." Loki said as he walked on.

"What" I thought as the guard and Loki walked off. Running out into the hall I watched the back of their heads disappear around the corner as I was left standing in the empty hall stunned. How did he know who I was if he hasn't seen me since I was a baby and why does his eyes look so familiar? 

Standing in the hall Dana continued to ponder over the millions of questions that ran through her head. As she was lost in thought Dana didn't realize that her father had finished up his conversation and was now standing beside her till he placed a firm had on her shoulder, startling her out of her thoughts.

                "Dana?"

                "Huh, what, o hey Dad it's you."

                "Hey you ok?"

                "yea, yea I'm fine" I said as I continued to stare off down the empty hallway.

                "Good, now stay away from him Dana he's bad news"

                "What, Dad you don't even know him and we went over this already. Maybe there's something to his story that were missing."

                "I don't need to know him to know he's bad news for you. He's the God of lies and you have that look on your face that tells me you think he's cute and mysterious and that you're going to want to talk to him."

                "WHHHHAAAAT, no, no I don't"

I started to blush and my eyes sifted back and forward as I avoided eye contact. Dad just shook his head, the gears in his brain turning to come up with some way to keep Loki away from me. At that moment the speakers turned on and Nick Fury's voice boomed on the speaker.

                "Natasha, come to the interrogation room, Natasha, the interrogation room."

                "They're playing my song dad, got to fly" I said with a sly smile.

I knew that they must have Loki in the containment chamberand are going to begin questioning him. That's why they needed Natasha, because she's the best at getting information and I needed to know that information.

Before Bruce could do or say anything, Dana was gone. She had turned and raced off down the hall, rounding the corner and sprinting off in the direction of the interrogation room. Bruce barely had time to even blink before she was gone.

Reaching the surveillance room, I quickly slipped inside before I could be stopped. The room was full of computers and large TV screens were one could watch and monitor the interrogation so the prisoner does not know what is going on. On one of the screens Natasha was seen standing outside a large glass tank, inside the tank was Loki. Loki sat on the floor, his back to Natasha; he did not seem the least bit interested in what she was saying only that his facial expression showed that he was annoyed. Natasha on the other had seemed to becoming increasingly frustrated in the lack of progress in her interrogation. As I continued to watch the interrogation, I was unfortunate enough to be spotted by Fury who came towards me, breaking away from Clint and Thor who sat by a computer.

                "Dana what are you doing in here; you do not have jurisdiction to be here."

                "I umm....I" I stammered trying to come up with some reason why I should be allowed to be involved in the interrogation.   

                "Calm down Fury, she's an Avenger; she has just as much right to be in here as any of us do and besides she might be able to help."

                "Thanks Clint"

                "Sure thing, now come help, see if you can't pick up on anything from this guy."

Pushing past Fury and his piercing gaze, I sat in a chair next to Clint and continued to observe the interrogation.  

Dana and the others watched as Natasha ran through every trick in the book to get Loki to talk but with no success. She poked and prodded and Loki with her words but still Loki refused to look at her, let alone move. After a couple of hours Natasha had given up, with a deep sigh she left the room, opening a door that lead back into the surveillance room. Coming back inside Natasha sat down in a chair with a deep sigh rubbing her temples in frustration.

                "Well I got nothing. I've tried everything but I can't get him to say shit."

We sat in silence, contemplating our next move on how to get information out of Loki until I got an idea.

                "Hey could I try"
