the Avengers - Not A Normal Assassin

Chapter 12

------------------Kaya's POV----------------------

The plane landed on a big field of grass that was surrounded by a forest of trees and a huge rock. We're in the middle of now where.

"Are you just going to dump me here?" I asked as Loki got up and the other guards got all their stuff together.

"No. This is a very good hiding place isn't it?" He said and untied me from the chair but my hands were still handcuffed behind my back.

The tip of the scepter touched my back and the guards filed out of the jet and towards the rock. Loki pushed me slightly and I walked out of the jet after the guards. One of the soldiers touched something, causing the rock to open up a door revealing a staircase downwards.

I followed them down and it opened up into a cave like room filled with technology I couldn't begin to explain. The walls were wet and sharp, I'm not quite sure how they got power down here. A guard flicked a light switch and the room lit up. In the far end there was a cell. I'm guessing that's we're I'm going. Loki pushed me in and locked it. "why don't you just kill me or turn me into one of your minions?" I asked.

"where's the fun in that?" He replied and walked off to do God knows what.

--------------------3rd person---------------------
Barton is strapped down and Natasha watches over him as Barton tries to shake off Loki's mind control.

"Clint, you're gonna be alright." She sooths him.

"You know that? Is that what you know? I got...I gotta go in though. I gotta flush him out." Clint shakes his head trying to get Loki out of his brain.

"We don't have that long, it's gonna take time."

"I don't understand. Have you ever had someone take your brain and play? Pull you out and send something else in? Do you know what it's like to be unmade?" He asked.

"You know that I do."

"Why am I back? How did you get him out?" he asked again.

"Cognitive recalibration. I hit you really hard in the head." She replies casually.

"Thanks." He mutters. Natasha unfastens the restraints "Tasha, how many agents?"

"Don't. Don't do that to yourself, Clint. This is Loki. This is monsters and magic and nothing we were ever trained for." She warns him.

"Loki, he got away?"

"Yeah. He's taken away one of our team, Agent Kaya Jackson. I don't suppose you know where?"

"He won't kill her unless she gets on his nerves, Loki will only torment her or play with her until he gets bored. I didn't need to know where I was so I didn't ask. He's gonna make his play soon though. Today."

" We gotta stop him."

"Yeah? Who's we?" Clint asked.

"I don't know. Whoever's left."

"Well, if I put an arrow in Loki's eyesocket, I'd sleep better I suppose." He said.

"Now you sound like you." Natasha sits next to her partner and friend.

"But you don't. You're a spy, not a soldier. Now you want to wade into a war. Why? What did Loki do to you?" He asked look at her.

"He didn't, I just..." She pauses. "I got red in my ledger. I'd like to wipe it out."

Tony look at the empty cell container, he stands there not saying a word until Steve walks in. "Was he married?"  Steve asks.

"No. There was a uh...cellist, I think." Tony replies.

"I'm sorry. He seemed like a good man." Steve apologised.

"He was an idiot." Tony says shortly crossing his arms but doesn't move a step.

"Why? For believing?" Steve starts to get defensive.

"For taking on Loki alone."

"He was doing his job."

"He was out of his league. He should have waited. He should have-"

"Sometimes there isn't a way out, Tony." Cap interrupted.

"Right. How did that work for him?" Tony  walks away.

"Is this the first time you've lost a soldier?"

Tony turns around sharply and yells "WE ARE NOT SOLDIERS! I am not marching to Fury's fife!"

" Neither am I! He's got the same blood on his hands as Loki does. Right now we've got to put that aside and get this done. Now Loki needs a power source, if we can put together a list."

"He made it personal." Tony said looking at the blood stained wall coulson collapsed against.

"That's not the point." Steve argued.

"That is the point. That's Loki's point. He hit us all right where we live. Why?"

"To tear us apart." Steve answered.

"He had to conquer his greed, but he knows he has to take us out to win, right? That's what he wants. He wants to beat us and he wants to be seen doing it. He wants an audience." Stark explained.

"Right, I caught his act at Stuttengard." Steve caught on to what he was saying.

"Yeah. That's just a preview, this is opening night. Loki's a full-tilt diva. He wants flowers, he wants parades, he wants a monument built in the skies with his name plastered... " Tony rambled on but stopped when he thought it. Steve raised both his eyebrows and Tony giving a look saying 'you get it now?'

" Sonofabitch!"

"Language."

-------------------Kaya's POV---------------------

A loud bang awoke me from my sleep. I looked over to the cell door and Loki walked in. "Bored?"

"No." I said quickly. "Why did you take me?" 

"I took you because the 'avengers' are better as a team. By taking you and Thor away I'm increasing the chances of taking over New York and your the most talkative out of all of them." He said sat down next to me.

"Why are you trying to rule earth?" I ask.

"I want respect, I want people to rule. Humans were meant for ruling and since my place as King was taken from by Thor, I want that place back." He stated looking ahead.

"You don't need to do this, there are people who respect and love you but doing this is not going to make them love you anymore than they already do. It's going to make it worse." I try and out some reasoning inside of him.

"Who does?" He asked not believing a word I had just said.

"Your mother and father, Thor definitely does. I'm sure that you'll find a girl that will love you deeply. I respect and care about you otherwise I'd be yelling and attacking you otherwise." I say trying to make him feel better about himself. He looked at me trying to read me. He started to lean in... What's he doing? If he's... I can't just push him away. He's a Prince of Asgard and all the things I've just told him i can't just push him away. What would the team think if I kiss him? They'd think I'm on his side. I'm not.

He his lips hovered against mine, fuck it. I kissed him... I just kissed Loki. It only lasted for 5 seconds after I pulled away. "I think im falling in love with you Kaya." He said.

"I don't know how i feel." I say, sheepishly, looking down at the ground. Loki lifts my chin to face him.

"They don't have to know." He said getting up and holding out with hand for me to take. I took it a he lead me out the cell and to my surprise nothing was there. All the machinery and technology was not there anymore.

We climbed back into the Quin Jet and flew off to what I expect is New York.
