Loki sighed. The night sky was cloudless. Every star in Manhattan seemed to shine so bright. Tony had fallen asleep a while ago, but Loki just couldn't seem to sleep. Loki closed his eyes as he sighed. The air was cool, but it didn't bother Loki.
He opened his eyes and turned around to walk inside. A shadowed hand covered Loki's mouth to keep him from screaming, as he was slammed against a wall. Panic rushed through Loki's body. They've found me, he thought. The shadowy figure hit Loki harshly with a hard object. He immediately black out from the blow.

Tony awoke to the bed empty and colder than usual. He sat up, his love's smaller figure was not by his side, sleeping through the day. Tony sighed, he's probably in the kitchen. He thought. Tony got out of bed, and slipped his Black Sabbath shirt on over his bare torso. He left his bedroom, and made his way to the elevator.
"Hey, have you guys seen... Who the hell are you....?" Tony asked the stranger with shoulder length dark brown hair, and a left robotic arm with a red star painted onto the shoulder. "This is Bucky." Steve smiled. Bucky didn't say a word. He looked over at Steve and then back to Tony. Tony shook his head. "Never mind that!" A look of sadness swept over Tony's face. "Loki's missing, and I don't know what to do. I feel so empty without him." A tear slid down Tony's cheek. "Hey, don't worry. We'll all chip in the best we can to find Loki." Steve said. The team nodded.

"Alright everyone, how's it going?" Tony said enthusiastically. "WAIT, my dearest friends!" Thor said running into the room. "I have a confession. And I promise you will not be happy. I... I took Loki back to Asgard. And thanks to me my brother is probably going to be killed." Thor looked down shamefully.
"YOU WHAT?!?!" Tony screamed. Tony had a look of kill in his eyes. He darted at Thor, but Steve and Bucky grabbed both of Tony's arms.
"Tony, please calm down." Steve spoke. "I'mma kill you, you bastard!!!!" Tony growled. Bucky grabbed Tony by the hair. "We. Said. Calm. Soldier!" Bucky hissed. Tony looked up at Bucky then at Steve. "I like him." Tony said, pointing at Bucky. Bucky snorted, and harshly dropped Tony.

Tony's suit was on, and ready. "Bucky, you ready to go?" Tony asked. Bucky smiled and nodded, as he pulled out a hand gun and dagger. Bucky was about to walk over to Tony before Steve butted in. "Woah, woah, woah. You're taking Bucky?!" Steve asked. Steve whispered to Tony so Bucky wouldn't hear. "Not to be rude, but Bucky has been a bit... Unstable since the war." Tony snorted. "And that's exactly why I'm taking him. Bruce, start up the teleporter!" Tony yelled as he grabbed Bucky by the arm. Bruce nodded, and started the teleporter. Bucky saluted Steve as they teleported away.

Loki shakily sighed, he had been crying every night and day. The cell was dark, the light that was in the room was very dim and barely made the room brighter. A heavy door could be heard creaking open from down the hall. Footsteps walked down the hall and closer to Loki. Loki lifted his head in hope. A shadowy figure stood in front of Loki's cell. "I'm sorry brother." Thor said gently. It was like all the hope inside of Loki had just died. "Piss off." Loki hissed. He could tell Thor was hurt. "This is why I brought you back here, Tony is not a good influence on you." "But I love him!!" Loki screeched. "And what did you do? You ruined all of it!" Loki screamed. Tears began rushing down his face.
Clanging of metal armor stopped at the cell. Loki had pure fear in his eyes. Thor stepped to the side, as guards bursted into the cell. They grabbed his arms harshly. "No, please, no! You're misunderstanding, I've changed!!" Loki wailed. Hot tears rushed down his face.
Loki was handcuffed and brought to a large wooden creation. There was an indentation for a head to rest, but many years of beheading left crimson stains within the wood itself. A guard forced Loki's head down into the indentation. Tears began to cloud his eyes. "Goodbye, Anthony." Loki whispered to himself, as a tear slid down his face.
"Time for a royal party or what?" A familiar voice yelled. Loki looked up, hope filling his eyes. "Tony!" Loki screamed. "Hey, baby." Tony said. "Sorry to ruin the fun, but Bucky and I gotta get this lovely God back home." Tony's iron suit shot out bright blue lights. It hit the executer, knocking him unconscious, as he let go of the rope that held up the sharpened blade. Bucky jumped into action and pulled Loki out before it was too late.
"Bucky, you make sure Loki's safe. I'll take care of these guys." Tony said, referring to the guards. Bucky nodded, he grabbed Loki's hand, trying to drag him away. "Wait Tony!" Loki said trying to stop Bucky. "I'll be okay, sunshine. You go with Bucky!" Tony said blasting missiles at guards. "But, wait Tony-!" Loki was cut off by an arrow. Loki cringed in pain as he held his side. "Loki!!" Tony screamed. Bucky rushed over to Loki.
"Okay, this may hurt a bit." Bucky said before pulling the bloody arrow out of Loki's stomach. Loki cried out in pain. Blood oozed from the wound, as Loki tried covering it.
The shooting had seized. Tony flew over to Bucky who kneeled next to Loki. Tony lifted the mask covering his face. "Loki." Tony said with tears into his eyes. Tony held Loki in his arms. "Loki..." Tony sobbed. A hand landed on Tony's. Tony saw the hand and looked up. Loki was smiling through the pain. "It's gonna be okay. I promise." Loki said, clearly in pain. Bucky held Loki in his arms, but handed him over to Tony.
Loki's eyes closed and his breathing shallowed. "No..." Tony whispered. "No." He sobbed into Loki's chest. He held Loki's smaller figure close. "No." Tony wailed, his shoulders bouncing uncontrollably. Bucky lowered his head in respect, as he took a knee.
Sorry guys, I know it's sad. :( and sorry it took so damn long. Lots of homework. Till next time.
