Skadi - A Marvel Fanfic

Chapter 6

"If this doesn't work, I'm going to kill you." I muttered to Loki as we stood at the edge of the Asgardian city. Even from the here, you could hear music and people talking.

"What's going on?" I asked, nodding my head towards the city.

"Asgardians always have something to celebrate." Loki replied. Sounds like my kind of city. I thought to myself as I admired the view. Even the houses on the edge of the city looked magnificent.

"This plan is stupid." I told him, as he took off his jacket and handed it to me, I put it on to disguise my normal clothes.

"Well if you don't want me to kill you, you'll do this." He threatened.

"You'll kill me?" I laughed. "Like you could even if you wanted too. You're still too weak to do anything by yourself."

"Well if you think you're so strong, why don't you go and do it by yourself. You stupid girl, like you could actually help me." He yelled. Stupid girl?

"Don't you call me stupid! I got us here."

"Thanks to me."

"Well I hope you enjoy getting caught on your own." I shouted, before turning and walking off into the city in a huff. I heard Loki yell something from behind me but I wasn't listening.

I could feel ice curling around my fingers and I had to calm down before I sent it flying everywhere. I entered the city and it instantly took my mind off Loki and his anger issues.

There were people dancing through the streets and musicians on every corner. Almost all the buildings were gold, along with their statues. Time disappeared as I wandered through out the streets, admiring scenes around me. The clothing, the food, the people, all so new yet I didn't feel out of place. I lost track of time and before I knew it I wandered right in front of the steps that lead into the golden castle that was the center of Asgard. I must have looked stupid because I'm sure I stood for a solid five minutes with my mouth agape in awe.

Suddenly, I felt a rough grip around my arm that pulled me into out of the view of the citizens. I began to freak out as I saw the guard's uniform, but when I looked closely I could see Loki's smirk under the helmet.

"What is wrong with you?" I hissed as I punched him in the arm. "You scared the life out of me." He gave me another one of his smirks, and I smiled in relief that I wasn't in real trouble. Well, not yet.

"So, I might need your help in getting into the building." He confessed. "I tried, but a lonely guard looks suspicious and you're right. I don't have enough strength to multiply." I raised an eyebrow, telling him I wasn't convinced yet. "Fine, and I'm sorry!" he exclaimed.

"Apology accepted." I answered. "But if the plan is back on, I want you to stop bossing me around. I'm your partner in this, not your servant." He stared at me for a moment before nodding his head and raising his hands in defeat. I smiled at my victory before holding my hands out in front of me.

"Well let's get this show on the road." I ordered. He smiled and as he did his face changed to one that I didn't recognize, at the same time, cuffs appeared around my wrists.

"Thor better fall for this." I muttered as we walked back into the crowd and into the golden castle.

"Trust me, that great oaf will believe it." He whispered back as we walked into the building.

As we entered the throne room, my heart started beating out of control. The blonde god looked incredibly intimidating from his throne. People in deep discussion surrounded him, but he waved them away when he saw us entering the room. Except for three men and a lady, all wearing warrior armor.
