Kiara's POV
"So, where are you guys going?" Natasha asked over the phone. Thor was driving me to a destination, where he told me he had a "special surprise" set up.
"I don't know. Thor won't tell me." I replied.
"Alright, but you're telling me all the details when you get back." I could hear Loki chuckling in the background.
"Will do, Nat." I hung up the phone. I shifted in my seat, so I could face Thor.
"No, I am not telling you where we're going." Thor said, before I could opened my mouth.
"I wasn't going to ask." I lied. "Okay, maybe I was."
"Knew it." We sat in silence until Thor drove up a big hill and stopped at the top. "This is where we're going." He gestured around him.
"Okay." I nodded. Thor, being a gentleman, opened my car door and led me to a spot under a big oak tree. There was a picnic blanket laid out of the ground, surrounded by baskets of food. "Wow." I breathed. "Is this for me?"
"Do you like it?" Thor looked at me.
"I love it." I placed a kiss on his cheek. We ate a meal of sandwiches and some sort of Asgardian meat, which was quite delicious, finishing with a glass of wine. Afterwards, we decided to watch the sunset. Thor sat on the blanket, his back leaning against the tree. I sat on his lap, my head resting on his shoulder. The sunset was a beautiful sight. All the colours; red, orange, yellow, purple, pink and blue, lit up the sky in a beautiful pattern. I watched in awe as the colours disappeared from sight. "You know, for the God of Thunder, you're actually really sweet." No response. I looked up at Thor and saw that he was sound asleep. All of a sudden, four men sprung out from nowhere. I recognised them instantly. They were HYDRA soldiers. I screamed as they knocked me out, my world enveloping in darkness.
Thor's POV
I woke up to see that the sky had gone completely dark. I looked around and noticed Kiara was gone. I was about to go to the car and see if she was there, when I saw a note on the ground. I picked it up and unfolded it. It only had two sentences on it.

You will never find them. Not until it's too late.

My eyes widened as I saw the HYDRA symbol stamped onto the paper. I ran to the car and drove as fast as I could to Stark Tower. As soon as I was inside, I found Natasha and Bucky, who were arguing loudly, while Tony, Wanda and Steve were sitting there watching.
"We can't let them kill him!" Natasha yelled. "We have to find him now!"
"You think I don't know that?" Bucky yelled back. "We'll just wait for Thor to get back and then we'll work out a plan. Okay?"
"Okay." Nat grumbled.
"What's going on?" I asked, entering the room.
"Loki's been taken by HYDRA." Nat answered.
"What?"
"You heard me. Where's Kiara?"
"Probably at the same place as Loki." I told everyone. Bucky's jaw clenched.
"You're kidding." Natasha said. "Please tell me you're joking."
"I wish I could say that I was."
"Why is it bad things always happen to the people I care most about?" She sighed.
"So, what are we going to do?" Tony asked. There was a moment of silence, before Bucky spoke up.
"We find them."
