The Saviour (Loki Love Story)

Chapter 27 New Weakness

Scarlett's POV    

What the hell happened?

My eyes slowly open and I'm in a cell of some kind. The walls are dark black and so it the floor. And it's bloody freezing. My hands are cold and shaking, handcuffed together but not behind my back, that's a change. I try to use my magic to burn the cuffs but I'm not strong enough. I seriously need to work on my magic. What happened? How did I get here? Then I remember I was on the balcony and I turned around and.... I must have blacked out. Who kidnapped me? What do they want for me?

Then I feel a pain down my right arm and I see a massive long cut, and the sleeve for my dress has been ripped off.

The door to my cell suddenly opens and a creepy man wearing a Chitauri mask enters. Chitauri mask? I'm screwed. Please Loki...find me.

He introduces himself, "I am The Other."

He's called The Other? Who would call their child that?

"What do you want from me?" I ask, my voice wavering.

"My master, Thanos, wants to destroy Loki. And he has a perfect plan that he will fall for."

That's why I recognise him slightly, he is one of Thanos associates. The titan who was forcing Loki to try and take over earth. I'm in serious trouble this time. They are going to use me against Loki.

"He won't fall for it." I say, trying to brave.

He smirks as two guards come in and force me to my feet.

The Other chuckles, "Oh, he will."

They then drag me out the cell, my new destination unknown.

Loki's POV

We arrive in Jotunheim with the army all ready to fight. I have already come up with a plan on how to get into the castle without being distracted. I'm going to sneak into the castle to look for Scarlet while Odin, Thor and the army attack the frost giants and Chitauri that have teamed up with Thanos.

I hope she is ok. I knew one day Thanos would come after me but why now? Something has changed.

But there is no way he is taking my wife and getting away with it. He will pay for kidnapping her on our wedding day. If she is hurt, there will be hell to pay.

Finally, I reach the throne room and I storm inside. On the cold throne sits The Other with Scarlett tied up and gagged next to throne. I'm relieved to see she is alive and ok. But I can see the cut down her arm from where they wrote the note in blood, and I feel my blood starting to boil.

"The Other." I clench my teeth as I glare at him.

He smirks, "Loki, unfortunately Thanos is too busy to grace us with his presence.

I keep glaring at him as I slowly approach, "Let Scarlett go."

He gets off the throne and approaches me as he chuckles, "We found your new weakness Loki, your beloved wife. Take her away guards."

No. I look at her as a guard picks her up and begins dragging her away. She struggles as she is dragged out the room, her eyes never leaving mine. He is not taking her away from me again.

I punch The Other in the face and he staggers back. He pulls out a knife but I freeze them and they shatter into pieces. Quickly, I teleport behind him and knock him out. Then I run down the hall she was taken and I find her being untied by Lady Sif, in disguise as one of the guards.

I sign in relief as I run over to them. Scarlett slowly gets up as I reach them.

"Did he hurt you?"

She shakes her, "No, I'm fine. Just tired." I nod as I help her up and then it hits me.

I look at Lady Sif and she gives me the same look, I think she is thinking the same thing as me. Is this really her? Her magical energy feels different and even when I look at her she seems different. Is this a trick? A trap? Plus I know my wife and she would have ran into my arms. Hmm.

Despite the doubt of this being her I transport us out the castle and into the battle. We land by Odin and Thor who stand away from the fighting, waiting for us.

I turn to the battle field as I decide to test if this is her, "Scarlett? Let's use our ultimate power like we did back before with the Dark Elves?"

She nods, "Ok, let's do it."

She links her hand with mine and with one blast, all the frost giants are frozen in place. They should not have frozen especially since my power is supposed to be linked with hers. That means this isn't her. It's supposed to knock them out, not freeze them

I push the fake Scarlett to the ground and hold a blade to her throat.

My brother runs over to me, "What are you doing brother?"

"This isn't her Thor, it's a fake."

The fake Scarlett vanishes in a puff of smoke and I turn back towards the castle, "She's still in there."
