Hindmost - Another Word for Chaos

9: Mischief

Loki summoned a twisting wind and threw it at her, forcing Discord back on her heels. Trying to take advantage of he formed a whip of glowing energy and lashed out at her. In response she deflected the attack and tried to charge him down only for Loki to phase through her.

"Ugh," she shuddered, "That's my skin crawling."

"You know you love it," Loki scoffed throwing a punch only to have it deflected by the flat of Discord's blade, "What?"

"Aw, did you not learn that one stuck in your fucking rock?"

She swept her sword around, slicing open the front of Loki's coat while he jumped out of the way. He tried to gain some distance, using his whip only to have Discord dodge around it and stab him in the shoulder.

"How the Hell?" he wondered, throwing himself away from her to land atop a dias in the center of the room.

She tried to leap up after him only for Loki to lash out once again and send her spiraling down.

"You like that BITCH!" he shouted, dissolving the whip and summoning a mass of dark energy that he fired off at her, blasting Discord through wall and leaving her dangling out of a ragged hole by the tips of her fingers.

Snickering and sneering Loki approached slowly before kneeling down to look her in the eye.

"So many options, should I smash your fingers until you drop?" he then raised his hand, forming another black orb, "Or perhaps-AAAAAH!"

He screamed as Discord shoved her blade upwards, through the stone floor and into Loki's groin.

"Hmm, damn good sword," she mentioned, using both hands to pull herself back into the room while he remained impaled, afraid to even move.

"OH! OH YOU BITCH!" he shouted at her, "YOU FUCKING WHORE!"

As she clambered into the room and moved past him, she kicked Loki in the back of the head, sending him sprawling on to the edge of the hole while the sword tore through his pelvis. While he lay on the ground, whining, Discord went over to Heimdal's fallen body and quickly searched it for the horn, quickly coming away with her prize and then rushing over to the window. Nervous, she licked her lips and took deep breath only to have a sharp pain to explode in her chest as a black spear pierced her back. Shuddering, she fell forward, bracing herself against the window ledge.

"Fuck you!" Loki declared, his arm still extended from throwing the spear.

Discord gasped and then took one last deep breath before blowing on the trumpet to a loud thunderous wail. The Horn's blast lasted for ten seconds before she collapsed forward, coughing blood and dropping it onto the Bifrost.

She fell back behind the ledge and clawed her way back over by the tips of her fingers and looked out at the empty horizon, absolutely crestfallen.

"Well?" she demanded to the sky, "Come on already! Where the Fuck are you?!"

"What were you expecting?" Loki snickered from the ground, "The air above splits open and the host plows through in an epic charge to save wondrous Odin?" he continued to laugh, crawling up from his elbows, "They need portals, transportation, just like you and it will take minutes before they can rally, longer for them to form an effective offensive against my son."

"Oh, that's right, Fenris is your kid," Discord muttered, snapping the haft of the spear that was sticking out of her chest and managing to shamble towards the door, "I always forget that."
