Loki held his beloved in his arms while she wept and dark fury burned in his heart as he remembered how strong the Captain's words were. How dare that man come and ruin one of his happiest moments in his life. And the old fool had to pour salt on the wound that mark Serena's fragile heart.
He vowed quietly to himself that the soldier will pay very dearly for the pain he caused Loki's fiancée to experience. Unfortunately he was unaware of the madness that was brewing in her mind.
'Who am I? There are too many voices in my head. Am I Anika or Serena? Fire or Ice? Shall I allow this world to burn or should I become the angel of death casting everyone into an eternal icy slumber? Concentrate and listen to the voice inside you. When will all this suffering end? Get a hold of yourself. I shall be queen and all shall love me. Dark beauty awakens. I AM LOSING MY MIND! HELP! Love shall become hatred...NO STOP! LEAVE ME ALONE!'
Serena was losing control for the fire and ice inside encased her heart and pour out into her blood. She screamed in pure agony as she felt herself being torn apart from the inside. Tears of fire streamed down her face, burn her skin and ice was blasted out of her mouth as she continued to scream.
Loki jumped back in horror as he watched his beloved rise above him with fire wrapping itself around Serena's body while her hair begin throwing ice in different directions. To him she looked like a beautiful goddess but he knew that something had crack inside her. The graveyard was burning and frozen at the same time as Serena screamed like a siren.
The unmistakeable sound of thunder could be heard in the distance and Loki knew that his brother, Thor was on his way probably leading the rest of the Avengers.
He clenched his fists when he saw the Soldier running closer and secretly he blamed Steve for Serena's breakdown. Longing to push the Avengers back, Loki stepped forward to meet them but was thrown to the side by Stark who grabbed him from behind.
"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO?" the billionaire growled as he trained his guns at Loki who was quickly getting back up to his feet.
"I assured you, Stark, that I had nothing to do with this," he calmly explained, "she just went crazy and she hasn't stop screaming since."
The ground shook violently as two dragons appeared around Serena forming a protective shield around her form. One was a dark blue dragon covered with ice spikes and the other one was a blood red dragon with eyes of fire. Loki gasped in amazement, he knew Serena was powerfully and now they were watching the full extent of her power that was locked away.
Serena's hair changed to midnight blue and her outfit was the same dress that she wore when she first came to Asgard. Blazing white eyes now replaced her gentle blue ones.
Fortunately those fiery tears were no longer burning away her skin and Loki noticed that her face was smooth once more.Serena finally stopped screaming and was just hovering above the ground breathing slowly. The dragons were still circling around her to warn off anybody to stay away.
"Serena!" Loki called to the fire and ice goddess, "My love, you need to calm yourself."
His girl turned her head to face him and stared into his eyes. Loki shivered in fear when he felt her gaze burn into his soul. He quickly lowered his eyes so that he would be free of her gaze. The Avengers around him didn't know what to do and watched Serena with wide eyes.
"If she attacks, we will have to be ready to take her down," Steve commanded and Loki glared at him.
"I will kill whoever touches her," he hissed in a threatening tone. Green eyes flashed dangerously as he continued to glare at the Captain. He jumped in surprised when a large hand landed on his shoulder.
"Brother, she must be stop," Thor boomed, "Otherwise she will rip this planet apart with that kind of power."
Loki swats Thor's hand off his shoulder and sighs in defeat. He watched as Serena's power continued to destroy the graveyard. "Do what must be done," he whispered quietly knowing that there was nothing he could do.
The Captain gave the order and Hawkeye fires an arrow into Serena's side which caused her to scream before she fell to the ground. Eventually the dragons faded away and the ice melted while the fire retreated back into her.
Loki ran over and lifted her up into his arms kisses her forehead lightly. He glanced at the devastation and destruction; thankfully nothing went beyond the graveyard. The tomb stones were broken and the grass had been destroyed in the flames.
Serena moaned softly as Loki carried her towards the others who looked relieved. He could see that Stark was dying to hold her so he calmly passed her to the billionaire's awaiting arms.
Even with her eye lids closed, Loki saw that her eyes were moving and placed a hand on her forehand hoping that his touch would sooth her. Sure enough she let out a breath and her whole body stilled as she fell unconscious.
"We need to take her to Asgard," Loki stated, "The healer's will know what to do." Everyone for once agreed with him and Stark placed Serena back in Loki's arms. 'Don't worry, my love, I will help you overcome this.'
