A journey of heart

This is why I stay inside

In the back of my head I block out the wondrous sounds of war. I take a few seconds to remember my life before this day. Nothing special. Being hated by everyone. An outcast. I was called strange and always received glares from passing people. I searched for war, I craved power.

I look around and absorb my surroundings. People screaming, explosions damaging, and gun fire everywhere. I smile. I guess this is a reason for people to be scared of me. I stand in the middle of the battle ground, and ignore police command. I admire the scene until a cop drags me to safety. In time stopped. "Kneel before your king!" The voice said. The cop loosened his grip and grabbed his gun. He shot at the tall man in black and green armor with a gold accent and helmet. He carried a staff, curved to a point with a beautiful gem shining in the middle. One extremely attractive man might I add. "I said KNEEL!" The police officer shot at him, causing no damage. The man touched the officer just above his heart with the point of his staff. The officers eyes turn blue, cold, and soulless. He put his gun away. The villain grinned menacingly. Then turned his gaze towards me. "Kneel before your king." His voice was clam but scary. Without hesitation I kneel at his feet. Who ever this man was where ever he's from. Something brought me to him.

His eyes were a heart stopping emerald green. His black hair slicked back so precisely. He puts his hand in front of me. "A lady like you should be in safety."

"Well you kinda possessed my guide to it." He grinned at my response.

"I'm not a ghost I do not 'possess', mortal, I am Loki of Asgard." I stay still. Stunned, I can't move. I really am in the presence of a god?

"You're in the stories I was told. About the mighty Thor and his evil brother Loki." Loki seemed interested in me. He watched all my moves carefully.

"Why don't you scream? Run or hide now that you know not who I am but what I can do mortal?"

"I looked up to you. The way you made your victims scream for mercy yet you kill them anyways."

Grinning "You intrigue me mortal. I must say they way you confronted me fearless. You're fearless and almost beautiful. For a mortal anyway."

"What are you implying Loki?" His grin faded.

"Call me 'my lord'. And I'm implying that you are the only mortal to willingly kneel to me and look up to me."

"Yes... My lord. Do you want something from me?" His face lit up like a boy opening a new toy.

"I want you to belong to me."

"Look I don't belong to anyone. I can survive on my own."

Loki's face showed glory. He wanted a challenge. While we were talking we forgot that we were standing in the midst of a battle. "Hey I'm sure you're some kind of joke I'm gonna go before iron man over their kills you.

"What?" Loki turned around with shock. His staff started glowing bright and shot the red suit. Iron man looked at me and made his way to grab me. Loki kept shooting.

"Hey honey, this guy bothering you?" Stark landed in front of Loki looking at me. Before I could open my mouth Loki responded.

"Don't you dare touch what belongs to me metal man!" Loki stood in front of me in attack mode.

"Yea, ok, well I kinda have a date with Mrs. Pots soo, let's get this over with." With that said a man with a bow, red head, an American flag, goldy locks, and a green monster appear behind Stark. Lokis face forms into a grin. One of the men draws an arrow at Loki and releases. The arrow never hits solid flesh it only tears through a picture that turned to smoke. Tony makes his way over to me opening his helmet.

"Why don't we get you away from here." He reaches for my hand.

"I do believe that is not a good idea, Midgardian." Loki appears as quick as he vanished behind agent Barton. He grabs his arm and threatens his staff at the agent. "Touch her and you'll never see him in full light." Tony ignored orders and just to piss of Loki poked my arm.

"Now sweetheart did that cause you any internal bleeding?" At that Loki touches Agent Barton above his heart and took over his body like he did the officer.

"Grab her and protect her." Loki gives Barton his first command. What does he want me for? I give up my fight and go where Barton tells me.
