The Bad Hero

Ch.2

After my wings were so sore that I could barely move them and I was more dependant on my air bending on moving, me I decided to head home. As I swooped in over my house I saw two big black trucks and one motorcycle. I landed in a tree close to my house but far enough away that I was not visible. I climbed down quietly and folded my wings back. I felt them morph into my back  before walking toward my house.

I knew this day would come. I knew they would break their promise. I was going to be their expieriment slave forever.  Well guess what you mother fuckers I'm not going down without a fight. 

As I walked toward my house I concentrated in forming a ball of fire in my left hand as I opend the door with my right. After taking a deep breathe I slammed the door open with such force that it flew off its hinges. I raised my hand ready to strike when I was suddenly tackled by a huge mass of muscle. I thrashed and screamed wildly throwing fire and water all over the place  with my eyes sealed shut afraid to open them because of what I might see. 

It suddenly felt as if a huge weight was put on my body and I could barely move. Thus taking away my bending. My eyes flew open as I searched for this mysterious force but instead I found 8 serious faces. 

I jumped a little at how close they were until I saw my uncle. I tried to get to him but the weight on my chest forced me down. I stayed down and I suddenly realised I was surrounded by the Avengers. Consisting of Tony Stark, Steve Roggers,  Natasha Romanoff, Clint Barton, Thor, and of course my uncle Robert Banner. I also noticed Nick Fury standing behind them and felt my stomach cringe slightly as I recalled our earlier meetings.... Then I saw the lord of all bastards. Loki. 

"Let me up please..." I wheezed through my tight breathes. 

"Oh sorry." Thor replied rather sheepishly removing his hammer off my body. I sucked in quick breathes and rolled onto my stomach coughing slightly. Then I jumped up into my uncle's arms holding the tears back. He laughed happily, a deep hearty chuckle, and squeezed lightly before placing me back onto the ground. 

"I missed you!" I said 

"I missed you too, sweetheart." he said and kissed the top of my head. I turned around and introduced myself. 

"Hi. The name is Alice, but my friends call me Ace, at least they would if I had any friends." I said holding out my hand. Tony laughed and reached out to shake my hand. 

"I like you." He said with a cocky smirk. I smiled back and took his hand. I then moved down the line of heroes exchanging a hello with each of them. Then I got to Fury. He stuck out his hand, and I pretended to go for it, but right before we touched I flipped my hand around and threw him my middle finger. I heard somebody snicker and I would have put money on it being Tony, but I ignored him and lowered my voice to an evil hiss. 

"I will never forget." I said looking Fury right in the eye. He looked down as if he was ashamed, then replied. 

"I know you wont, but we make mistakes and I am hoping you will at least put the past behind you and focus on the future." I nodded my head slightly but I still wasn't sure if I did that to tell myself or Fury that I would be good. 

Finally I arrived at Loki. He was towering over me which says a lot considering I am tall for a girl. I tried to think of the proper way to go about saying hi. 

"Your royal dip shit, what a pleasure it is to meet you." I said bowing my head.  I heard my uncle laugh behind me and the rest of the crowd. I suddenly felt a large cold hand cup my chin and pull my face up gently forcing me to look right into his deep green orbs. 

"I may have done some bad things, but I am on your side now  and I would prefer it if you did not disrespect me." he said in a rich deep voice that sounded as if it could belong to an angel. Ya a fallen angel maybe. I pulled my face away from his cold soft hand and took a step back after realizing how close our proximity was. I watched him with weary eyes. He looked so sad and alone compared to the rest of the group. You could easily tell he was the odd one out just from watching how he acted. 

"Alright" I said sitting on my couch," not to sound rude or anything, but why are you all here?"

"Ahhh the question of the hour," Fury replied "Thor care to explain?" he said nodding towards me.

"Of course." he replied taking a seat next to me "You see some believe that before the universe there was nothing. They are wrong, there was darkness. And it has survived. There is a new threat to mid guard, he is called Thanos.  He believes that if he can control mid guard than he can control any realm." He said gravely. 

"So wait. You mean another alien is coming to earth to try and take over?" I asked

"Exactly. and he is stronger." Fury answered with a nod. 

'Well fuck." I said with a shake of my head, and everybody hummed with agreement. " So Loki? why is he here exactly?"

"He is here because he is powerful just like every other Asgardian." Fury said "And they are going to help us fight Thanos and his army.  Which is why Thor and Loki are here they want to help prepare the world for what is going to happen."

"But he is not from Asgard he is from Odinheim correct?" 

"No!" Thor bellowed making the rest of us jump, "He was raised in Asgard as my brother and that is what he is." 

"No I am not." Loki said blowing out a puff as if he was already annoyed with the conversation. 

"Then what are you?" I asked genuinely curious. But i quickly wished i could take the question back because of the look of pain and sadness that filled his features. 

" I am nothing." he replied quietly. 

"No." I said waiting a minute so that I could put my thoughts together. He gave me a questioning look with one eyebrow cocked and he kinda looked cute... no no no stop no we are not even going there. "You are Loki." He gave me a small smile that would have melted any woman's heart including mine. But only for a second did I allow my feelings to bubble inside me before I put myself back together again. But I have a feeling that the second I allowed my feelings to go crazy was a second to long. "So... Anyways," I said snapping back into reality " You are here because you need....my help' It sounded more like a question."

"Yes, exactly" Natasha replied. I took a gulp of air and looked at Uncle Banner. He nodded. I looked over at Fury. Then at each avenger and finally at Loki. He gave me a stiff smile which I think it was supposed to be convincing but instead he looked constipated. 

"Alright lets blow this joint." I said walking through the doorway like the pimp I was.
