Chapter 8: Fireworks and symphonies

A/N: This chapter reminded me of this song and it kind of sets the mood. Starting from here on out, I'll do song recommandations for you, guys. Now, onto the chapter !

8- Fireworks and symphonies

For the next few days, Tyara shut herself down. She especially avoided her father and his questions.

The almost always-radiant Princess was now pale and she lacked any form of appetite.

Thor was genunely worried about his little girl, but his feelings were shadowed by anger: anger towards his cruel little brother. Loki has always been inconsiderate, but this time it was the last drop.

Seeing his daughter so hurt, physically pained him. He was aware of the fact that he wasn't the best father, but he hadn't stooped so low as to accept this.

  Tyara was in her room, her head burried into her bent knees, her golden locks draping her face.

  She finally had some peace as the others were discussing  something with Fury in the conference hall.

  Out of the suden, the whole aircraft shook violently and inclined on the left side.

  The Princess snapped out of her thoughts and jumped to her feet.She ran for the door and swung it open.

  At the end of the corridor, a SHIELD agent  pointed her gun at her. Tyara frowned. Why was he turning against her ?

Then he fired. The bullet passed by Tyara's head, almost grazing her right ear.

  She ducked behind the door to her room as he continued to fire his gun at her. The bullets left marks in the metal, but didn't get through.

  After what it seemed like forever, he apparently ran out of bullets. Then, she took the chance and ran towards him. The agent tried to grab her by her hair but she ducked under and past him.

When he tried to follow her, she elbowed him in the guts and he went flying into the fall, losing consciousness. She cringed when his head banged against the wall.

Tyara continued her way down the corridor. She had the perfect idea of who was behind this ruckus.

  Even though seeing him was the last thing she wanted to do, she headed towards the Interrogation Room.

  Her eyes widened when she saw the door was open and her father was staying in the doorway.

  Sensing her, Thor turned his head around.

"Tyara ! Stay back, I have to get Loki !"

Before Tyara could actually see what was happening, Thor ran towards Loki and tackled him to the ground.

But it was just an illusion, through which Tyara could see clearly, yet her father had fallen for it.

He passed through the flicking image and his chest hit the prison's floor, the door securely closing behind him.

The real Loki appeared in front of Tyara.

"In the end, you proved yourself a fool." Loki snickered, his once enticing voice full of menace.

Thor swung his hammer at the glass, cracking it a little. The whole prison shook tremendously for a moment, the God of Thunder almost losing his footing.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you. You know, it was built for that green monster..."

Thor's horrified expression talked for itself. Realization flooded his mind. If he tried to break free, the cell would be released from the aircraft.

"Tyara !" He shouted, banging his huge fist on the glass.

 
The Princess stared into her father's eyes for a mere second. Thor nodded reluctantly, but she was determined to fight Loki. She summoned her sword, narrowing her gaze on him.

"Don't move !" Her attempted threat only amused the mischievous man in front of her.

"Please, Tyara...You wouldn't even cut a fly to begin with." He shook his head disapprovingly, his black strands of hair dangling in the air.

She knew he was right. She loathed him for his cruelness but she couldn't bring herself to hurt him either. She would have to restrain him without inflicting any wounds.

Loki smirked and lunged himself at the control station. Tyara reacted quickly and blocked his way with her weapon. Loki's lips curved up into a wicked smile at her brave attempt. His eyes held an unusual blue tint to them, which made them even more vivid than before.

'Do you think you can stop me ?'

'I'm certain of it. I won't let you hurt innocent people !'

Loki teleported behind Tyara.

"We'll see about that."

Before she could react, his hand tightened on her shoulder, pressing on a pressure point. She winced, her grip on the hilt loosening until the sword clattered on the floor.

"Tyara !" Thor screamed, his veins pulsating with anger.

"Leave her alone !" shouted a voice from behind them. Tyara turned her head to see a SHIELD agent, holding an enourmous weapon pointed at Loki. He was almost completely bald, his head shinning in the artificial light and his eyes were a shimmering blue colour.

Loki stopped pressing on Tyara's shoulder, his attention turned to the newcomer.

The God of Mischief smiled. "What would you do if I didn't ?"

"It was not yet tested. Even I don't know what it does."

   In a matter of seconds, Loki became a firework. The Princess was so stunned that she didn't notice her mouth was agape.

"Agent Phill Coulson, m'lady. Are you okay ?" He asked, straightening his tie.

Tyara nodded gratefully and threw him a little smile.

"Coulson ! Thank Odin you're here !" Thor let out a relieved breath.

'So they know each other...'

  Tyara walked towards where Loki had been blasted through the wall, picking up her sword in the process.

  The God of Mischief had a few cuts on his face and neck, but was overall unscathed.

  She pointed her sword at him. She would've so liked to use her fire extentively, but that meant bursting the whole aircraft into flames.

Loki raised himself on one arm. With a snap of his fingers, he vanished into thin air. It was just an illusion.

This time, Tyara moved quickly, moulding her fire into a flying platform and landing right behind Coulson just in time to feel Loki's dagger penetrating her abdomen.

"NOOOO !" Thor screamed at the top of his lungs.

A/N: I'm so sorry for the long wait. I'd been through a busy period of my life and I lacked time to write, but now I'm back on track.

What do you think is going to happen next ?
