Chapter 17: Saving Her

All I have to say is that I'm sorry for the terrible fight scene. I'm not experienced with writing them, so I'm sorry if it sucks!

The team exited the jet, with Tony, Nat, and Steve going in separate directions; each with their five S.H.E.I.L.D. agents.

Loki stepped out of the jet, followed closely by Thor, and four slightly terrified S.H.E.I.L.D. agents.

"Which building is she most likely in?" Loki questions, not knowing the terrain.

"It's about half a mile to the north." Thor states as he grabs Mjolnir from the ground.

"Lets get going then."

It took the two of them plus the agents a total of eight minutes to get to their target. It was an eerie building that looked like a disused asylum from the outside. The windows were tinted brownish-yellow from all the years of abandonment. The stone and concrete walls were covered in grime and rusty residue left dripping from the windows' iron lining. There were holes in parts of the roof and graffiti littered the outer walls. With every breeze, the the two demigods heard the building creak. It was one bad thunderstorm or strong earthquake from collapsing.

"This is the place." One of the agents stated.

"Before we head in, what are your names?" Thor asks.

"I don't see why this is important Thor. We haven't the time for this." Loki states impatiently, shifting his weight back and forth between his feet.

"My name is Grace." One of the three female agents said. She had short, sandy blonde hair and kind eyes.

"I'm Christina." The second of the female agents said. This one had a-bit-longer-than-shoulder-length, wavy, dirty blonde hair which was tied up in a ponytail behind her.

"I'm Dulandica." The shortest of the three female agents stated. She was Srilankan with black hair that was tied up in a bun to keep out of her face.

"And I'm Buddy." The fourth and only male agent said. He had short brown hair and soft, brown eyes. He was also the tallest of the bunch.

"Nice to make your acquaintances." Thor remarked before turning to Loki, who was rolling his eyes. "Alright. Now we can go."

"Good." Was Loki's one word answer to Thor as he moved straight for the building.

"With all due respect Sir, you should allow us to move ahead of you in case of hostiles." Grace said to Loki as she came to stand by his side.

"If you insist Grace."

With the four agents: Grace, Christina, Dulandica, and Buddy ahead of them, Thor and Loki made their way for the dilapidated building in front of them.

There weren't any outer guards, which was seen as strange, so Christina and Buddy stayed on the outside while Dulandica and Grace went with Thor and Loki.

Inside the base, they were met with seven hostiles. Grace and Dulandica took the four that came from the left, and Loki and Thor took the three from the right. The fight was over in mere minutes.

"We should keep moving. There aren't any alarms going off, but I doubt that their boss doesn't already know we're here." Grace said as she shot the last hostile between the eyes.

They continued moving until they came to a cross section.

"Alright, Grace, Dulandica, you take the left corridor while I take the one ahead and Thor takes the right." Loki ordered as he thought of how best to handle the situation.
