I laid down in bed.
I remembered Jarvis.
"Jarvis?" I asked. "Do I still have to kill him?" I asked.
Jarvis stepped out of the closet and stood beside me.
"No. You do not." He said solemnly.
I fell asleep.
I suddenly heard screaming.
I got out of bed and walked down the hall in my bare feet.
The screaming was coming from, Loki's room.
I quietly opened the door.
Loki was thrashing and yelling.
I closed the door.
I sat down beside him and took his hand.
His skin was dark blue and his skin was freezing.
Jotun.
I slowly cradled his hand and brushed his hair back.
"Et earello endorenna utulien. Sinome maruvan at hildinyar tenn' ambar metta.." I sang softly.
I felt Loki stop thrashing.
His breathing became soft.
I stroked his hair back and saw his skin change back to normal.
I dragged my fingers on the last blue piece of his skin.
Why does it turn blue?
I didn't see him open his eyes.
I felt him clasp my hand and I gasped.
"Oh, dear." I said.
"Who are you?" Loki asked.
"An old friend." I said coolly.
"What is your name?" He asked.
"My name is Crescent." I said.
"Why did you come here?" He asked.
"I heard screaming. I wanted to see if you were alright."
"Well as you can see I'm perfectly fine now." Loki snapped.
"I-I'm sorry. I-I didn't mean to intrude." I stuttered. "If I may inquire..what were you dreaming about?"
Loki hesitated.
"I was dreaming about Twilight. I dreamt that I killed her." Loki's face fell. "It doesn't matter. She's dead. She'll stay that way. Though, I admire that she would give her life to save someone else's. She taught me forgiveness..." He trailed off.
I don't think he noticed he was spilling a little too much.
"What was that song you were singing?" He asked. "I heard someone else sing it once."
"Song of Gold." I said suddenly.
"Yes."
"I-I'll go now." I said.
I got up and ran out the door.
"Wai-" Loki stopped.
I ran back into my room.
I saw Wanda standing in it.
"Shadow of Wanda?" I asked.
"No." She smiled.
"Shadows cannot smile." I smirked.
"I can see you." She said.
I shrugged.
"People can see me in the dark. Like I said before, I'm invisible in the light."
Wanda hugged me.
"Ok, 4 hugs in a day is suspicious. It seems as if you're growing fond of me." I squinted.
"Will you ever be anything but a shadow?" Wanda asked.
"I hope not. If I am ever able to have the chance to become human again, Pietro would die. And I'm not about to let that happen."
"Thank you so much, for everything that has happened. I would've never gotten my brother back." Wanda said happily.
"No problem. Thanks for visiting." Wanda walked out.
I walked out and searched around the tower.
I saw Tony sitting on the couch looking straight ahead.
He was still sobbing.
"What have I done?" I asked.
I walked toward him and sat down.
I rubbed his back softly.
He straightened up.
"Who's there?" He asked.
"I am an angel. I have come to say that your daughter is fine. You'll see her again." I smirked and ran off.
I saw Tony brush the air to the side of him.
"Love you." I whispered before going to bed.
I laid down and talked to Jarvis.
"No-no. Stay away from me." I muttered in my sleep.
"No! Stay away from them!" I yelped. "Stay away! I won't let you touch them! No!!" I screamed. "They're all gone. Gone. Gone. What? No, you can't be alive. No! No. Aahhh!"
I woke up in a cold sweat.
I had been dreaming about Tony capturing and torturing the Avengers, then he summoned Thanos again.
I saw someone sitting by my bed.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"I am Pietro Maximoff." Pietro said sarcastically.
"What's wrong?" I asked, sitting up.
"I heard screaming. I went to check. You said things in your sleep."
"Just the shadows of my past." I said.
"Are you happy?" Pietro asked.
"Yes." I said hesitantly.
Pietro looked at me and I turned on my light, turning myself invisible.
"No you're not. It's because of me isn't it?" He said. "Do you blame me for your dea--th?"
"No. Of course not. I just blame everyone else. I don't hate you or dislike you. But it is true, I'm not happy Pietro." I said. "I'm scared. I hear things and see things in my sleep. I see you all getting hurt. I shouldn't even care. But I do and someone or somethings using it against me."
Pietro sat down on my bed.
"There's nothing to be scared of, Princessa. No one will hurt us." Pietro said softly.
I turned the light off and I was visible again.
"Thanks, Speedy." I smirked.
I laid down and he laid down beside me.
I curled up into his chest and fell asleep.
The next morning I awoke and Pietro was still beside me.
"Hi, Pietro." I said.
He woke up.
"Hi, Krasivaya." He said.
"I think someone is coming to find you." I said hurriedly.
He shot up out of bed and turned on the light.
I turned invisible.
Tony came in.
Pietro hid in the closet, bumping into Jarvis.
