When Worlds Collide (Marvel/Star Wars)

Chapter 25: Rogue One

After grabbing our things, we boarded one of the ships where the others were. Once we were inside, Jyn faced them. "May the Force be with us." 

We all cheered at her words. I smiled. May the Force be with us indeed. K-2SO and Bodhi were in charge of piloting the ship while the rest of us sat in the back or decided to remain standing. Jyn and I made our way up to where Bodhi and K-2SO were. We then heard one of the men in control of flights speak up through the intercom. "Cargo shuttle, read back, please! What's going on out there? That ship's off limits. No one is suppose to be on board until further instructions."

Bodhi nodded. "Yes, yes we are. Affirmative."

"That's an impounded Imperial ship. What's your call sign, pilot?"

"Um." Bodhi stammered, trying to think of something.

"We have to go." Jyn informed him.

"It-It's um..." Bodhi trailed off, struggling to find the right words to say.

"Say something, anything." I urged with an anxious look. "Come on, Bodhi."

"Rogue... Rogue One." Bodhi blurted out.

"Rogue One? There is no Rogue One."

"Well, there is now." K-2SO replied.

"Rogue One, pulling away." Bodhi said.

"Pulling away." K-2SO confirmed.

I then closed my eyes, leaning back against the wall as I used the Force to contact Loki. Loki was still in his cell. He sat down by the window of his cell. His eyes lit up when he saw me approach him. "Storm, are you actually here."

Before I could answer, he reached out to touch my hand and his hand went through mine. His shoulders then slumped. "You aren't..."

"I'm sorry Loki, I truly wished to be with you. However I can't return just yet." I replied.

"And why not?" Loki inquired. "Did you not find Maya yet?"

"We found her, but she's unconscious. However that's not the reason I am staying here a little longer. The reason for staying longer will not please you, but I must do it." I informed him.

"And what is this reason? Are you in love with someone?" Loki asked with a tinge of anger.

I immediately shook my head. "No that's not the reason. The reason is that my older sister, Jinx, my younger brother, Alotren, me, and several others are on a mission."

Loki raised an eyebrow. "I thought you and Jinx weren't on good terms. As I recall, you told me she was on the Dark Side...whatever that may be."

"No, she's good...she's just misunderstood and has had a rough past. Jinx has felt like she's been living in the shadows all her life, and all she wanted was a chance to prove herself while I was the prodigy child and our other siblings...well they had talents as well." I revealed. "She wanted redemption...just like someone else I know. Loki, I understood that you felt like a monster when you truly aren't...and I understood how it felt like to be lied to."

"But I didn't understand you entirely, until my sister, Jinx opened up to me when we were on Jedha." I continued. "You shouldn't feel that way. And you shouldn't do anything you'll regret for the sake of redemption. You have so much potential, Loki. You're good, I know you're capable of it."

Loki was taken back by my words. "No one...no one has said that to me. I thought no one understood..."

"But I do. I understand you, Loki." I informed him.
