Chp-1, Loki's Deals
Rwik's heart pounded a frantic rhythm against his ribs. Fighting a god, even an alternate version, wasn't exactly on his daily to-do list. But he had few options, trapped in this bizarre reality, with the desolate plains of Earth-13 stretching endless before him. He glanced at Captain Cosmic, her cerulean form radiating a cool, unwavering resolve that both calmed and steeled his nerves.
"We accept your challenge, Loki," Captain Cosmic said, her voice firm and unwavering. "But before we engage in a meaningless fight, perhaps we can discuss a different kind of... demonstration."
Loki's narrowed eyes glinted with a spark of curiosity. "A different kind?"
"Indeed," Captain Cosmic continued, taking a step forward. "We can showcase the power of teamwork, the value of cooperation. We can prove our strength lies not just in brute force, but in strategy and a shared purpose.
Rwik understood. This was a gamble, an attempt to appeal to a shred of pragmatism Loki might possess. While this alternate god seemed different from the villain they knew, his underlying trickster nature couldn't be completely discounted.
As Captain Cosmic spoke, outlining their experiences in Oddison, their alliance with the Bridgebuilders, Rwik saw a flicker of something resembling respect cross Loki's features. Perhaps the idea of a multiversal peacekeeping force resonated with this version of the god, a hint of order amidst the chaos he seemed to relish.
Finally, Loki spoke, his voice laced with a grudging concession. "Very well. You intrigue me, mortals. Show me this 'teamwork' of yours. If it proves... entertaining, perhaps I can assist you in navigating this temporal anomaly."
Relief washed over Rwik, quickly followed by a surge of nervous excitement. This wasn't a traditional battle, but a test nonetheless. He needed to demonstrate the effectiveness of their combined skills, the strength that came from unity.
"Great!" Captain Cosmic said, a genuine smile playing on her lips. "Rwik here excels in agility and web-slinging tactics. Together, we can show you a display of combined offensive and defensive maneuvers that might surprise you."
Rwik cracked his knuckles, a nervous habit. Showcasing his web-slinging skills for a god? Talk about pressure. But looking at Captain Cosmic, her expression radiating confidence and trust, he felt a surge of determination. They had faced down Exodus and the threat to Oddison together. They could handle this too.
As Loki raised Mjolnir, its distorted lightning crackling with a menacing energy, Rwik took a deep breath. This wasn't just about returning home, it was about proving that even amidst the chaotic tapestry of the multiverse, heroes, from any reality, could work together. The desolate plains of Earth-13 became their stage, and with Captain Cosmic by his side, Rwik, the Carbon Spider, prepared to show Loki the true strength of a united front.
