Bang!!!!

Suddenly we both wake up as we hear explosions and crashes from inside the palace. I quickly put a gown on as Loki magic's his clothes on. Then we run onto the balcony and I'm startled at the sight before us.

Asgard is burning.

The city is glowing as fire rips though the streets and Chitauri are everywhere. Our armies are trying to hold them back but most have already entered the palace.

"Chitauri." Loki growls.

"He's come for me."

The doors to our room suddenly smash open and we step off the balcony as it enters. His skin is blue and is wearing gold clothing. He is just as big as a frost giant but they don't wear clothes.  So, this must be the titan, Thanos.

Loki stands in front of me which I don't mind at all as his hands glow green.

"Leave her alone Thanos."

Thanos lunges at Loki and grab him by the neck and lifts him up in the air.

He chuckles, "Now why should I listen to my old puppet." He then begins to tightens his grip.

He's strangling Loki.

"Stop it!!!!! Let him go!!" I scream as he strangles the life out of Loki.

And then there is a crack, then silence.

My heart feels like it has stopped as he drops Loki to the ground, not moving. I run to Loki's side as I try to wake him up. Please Loki, breath. But there is nothing, his body is still. His eyes closed, Thanos broke his neck. No!!!!!

"Loki?!!! No!!!"

Tears stream down my face as I am grabbed from behind by Thanos. His gigantic hand traps my arms behind my back but all I do is look at Loki. He carries me in his hand out the room and out the palace. No, I won't lose Loki. I must try and save him. I try struggling out of his bloody big hand as he takes me towards the bifrost.

Then Thanos groans in pain as he releases me and I fall to the ground. Thor knocks him to the ground as he runs over to me.

"Scarlett."

"Thanos strangled Loki, I need to get to him." I say.

His eyes widen, "Is he?"

"I don't know. I need to go." And with that I run back into the palace.

Quickly, I go through all the passages, avoiding the Chitauri and straight to our room. I run in and Loki is still lying on the floor. Tears begin to creep into my eyes again as I fall to his side and check his pulse. There's nothing. He's dead. But he can't be, not again.

"Loki... please wake up... I can't lose you." I break into tears as I lean my head against his unmoving chest.

I wrap my arms around his broken neck, tears flooding from my eyes. Thanos will pay... oh Loki. I'm so sorry, it's all my fault.

Then suddenly I feel it. I stop crying and look up to his neck to see my hands glowing. Slowly, I sit up next to him as my hands glow purple. Maybe? Maybe I can heal him?

I put my hands-on top of his neck as I try to focus my magic, praying it will work. Please work, please. Then before my very eyes, my magic goes onto his neck and begins healing him. I didn't know I could heal? Then my magic stops and his neck is healed. Loki suddenly gasps for breath as he coughs and opens his eyes.

I wipe away the tears, "Loki, thank Odin you are alive!!!!"

His green eyes finally meet mine as he sits up and pulls me into his arms. That was too close.

"I feared he had you, you ok?" He says.

I nod, "Thor saved me away from him and then I came back here. I should be the one asking if you are ok?"

He rubs his neck, "I think so... he strangled me. How am I alive? He broke my neck."

I smile, "I think I healed you. It just happened. You were lying there and then my hands glowed. And I put them on your neck and you were healed."

He chuckles as his lips meet mine.

"I thought I lost you."

"Not this time." He says and then he slowly gets up.

He helps me up as he wraps his arms around my waist. My lips meet his again except this time it's more passionate. My arms wrap around him as he deepens the kiss.

We suddenly hear footsteps and we pull away from each other as Thor runs in. He signs in relief as he runs over to us and tackles Loki into a hug.

Thor pulls away as he smiles at his brother, "Brother, thank Odin you are alive. I feared the worst."

"I'm ok Brother, what happened to Thanos?"

"He disappeared after I got him away from Scarlett, his army soon disappeared after. You both need to come to the throne room, father and mother are worried sick." He says before adding, "I'm going to the town to help with the clear up."

He then runs out the room and I turn back to Loki. I take his hand and we teleport to the throne room. Odin and Frigga immediately see us. Frigga runs over and pulls Loki into a hug and then me.

"My son, I believed you were dead." Frigga says in relief.

He smiles, "I'm ok, my love healed me."

Odin's eyes widen, "What?"

I shrug, "I'm not sure how I did it. I just felt my magic in my hands and when I placed my hands on his neck, it healed. I didn't even know I had that power."

"It seems your magic is growing in strength and giving you more abilities. This is most likely why Thanos wants you, your magic is becoming quite strong." Odin states.

Frigga smiles, "Thanks for saving my son."

"Well since you guys keep saving me, I thought I would return the favour."

They chuckle and Odin just smiles, "Get some rest, both of you. tomorrow, we shall gather the war council. This has gone on for long enough, it's time it's dealt with."

We nod and he leaves the room with Frigga. Loki clicks his fingers and we are back in what's left of our room. I sit back down on the bed as Loki magically fixes the door.

I smile as he comes up to me and pulls me close, "Don't you dare scare me like that again."

"I promise I won't."

I roll my eyes, "You said that last time."
