your pov

The gun starred me down like a lion at it's pray. my throat went dry and my mind blank at i looked down the barrel. i slowly raised my hands in the air, hoping that that in any way could help me. i waited for screams to be heard but none. the house was filled its regular nightly noises. 

" Are you y/n Stark?" the man asked. i nodded, unable to muster any noise from my throat. he stepped forward and patted my body down. when he came back up i was met with red eyes. I reached for his gun and tried to twist his arm. He fought back with the same strength. i brought me knee to his gut and he barely flinched. i scowled and kicked the back of his knee making him fall slightly. 

"TONY!" i yelled out, in the few seconds the man wasn't starring at me. The second the words escaped my mouth he looked back up at my and grabbed me by my throat. My feet dangled as his grip tightened and my breath began shortening. I threw my hands on his and tried to get myself free. The mans grip was tight and his hands were rough and freezing. 

" You will teach us how-" Before the guy could finish Bucky sent the butt of a gun into the side of his head. The red-eyed man turned his head and lost some of his grip. i jumped from his grasp and heaved as i caught my breath. Tony stepped forward with his own gun and so did Loki but with a knife. The evil man payed no mind to them and turned back to me. he pointed his gun away and at where Tony stood, and though my uncle seemed unfazed i froze with fear. In an instinct i was in front of the man holding his gun in my hand as my eyes laced with golden pupils. 

" Shoot him and you will regret ever coming near me." My voice sounded different, almost demonic yet still lullaby soft. Husky and it burned my throat, yet i could tell everyone in the room was enhanced by my words. And each word almost came out in a sing-song sound. The man took his strength away from pointing at Tony to pointing at my heart. I felt his finger slowly pull the trigger and Loki ran forward to stop him. I pushed the man's arm down and felt the bullet fly through my leg. Loki stabbed the man in the heart from behind both of us -- the man and i -- collapsed to the ground. The man began shriveling into a small dust but before he was completely gone he looked at me and smiled. 

" You will teach us your games, little princess." He said through gritted teeth from pain. My head ached at his last statement and my leg burned from the bullet wound. Loki immediately fell down to my side and placed a hand on my leg. 

" You should have just let me handle that! If he went to shoot Antony i could have made sure nothing happened!" Loki shot, his voice sounding angry but i knew he was just concerned. I rolled my eyes with irritation and gritted my teeth and i reach into the wound to retrieve the bullet. Everybody looked away and i heard a few vomiting sounds as i fished deep for the silver bullet. It hurt like hell but it wasn't my first time getting shot. I finally pulled the bullet out and with bloody fingers threw it out the window. 

" I have healing powers you idiot! i am perfectly capable of taking down one small man with a gun! God dammit and you killed him before i could even get him to speak!" I yelled back at Loki, with my normal voice. I placed my hand over the wound and said a small incantation and felt it scab over. i stood up and my hands squeezed into fists as i looked back at Loki with rage. 

" He wanted me to do something! we could have stopped him!" I screamed, my throat still stinging from the strangling. Loki stood up and shot me the same glare. Everyone around us grew stiff, even Thor. 

" Yeah? SO what did you want me to do? Sit back and let him shoot you in your heart, the one thing you can't heal! IS THAT WHAT YOU WANTED FROM ME?" His voice was cold and venomous, yet i felt no pain from his words. I gritted my teeth and threw my hands in the air. 

" I am more then willing to die to protect my loved ones!" My voice cracked but remained the harsh yell. Bucky took a step forward but i threw him back with my powers. Everyone froze as the situation sunk in. 

" And i am more then willing to loose information to keep you alive." Loki said helping Buck stand back up. My eyes grew wide as i glanced at all of my closest friends who starred at me with fear, even Tasha. I tried to open my mouth but it shut. I couldn't make up for this. I took a step towards Bucky, but Tony and Steve stopped me from getting any closer. 

"not this time, doll. Just go to bed." Steve said, and the disappointment in his voice struck my heart like a dagger. i looked and Tony and he nodded and pointed towards the bed.My eyes flooded with tears and i fell backwards. Everyone began taking Bucky away, only Steve and Tony staying at the door to make sure i didn't hurt anyone. I finally crawled into the giant bed and waited in the dark. I wrapped myself in as many blankets and clothes as possible, but my body remained freezing. it had been around three hours, although it could have been more or less for i lost track of time. I sat rocking myself back and forth, the knife Loki had used to kill the man in hand. Before i could hurt myself Loki walked in. He didn't turn on the lights and he didn't look at me. I sat up with anticipation, setting down the knife, but Loki walked right to the closet. I picked the knife back up and placed it on his pillow, hoping that maybe that would make him look at me. when he came out he just sat at the very edge of the bed on his side and still refused to look at me. Even the man i loved most in the world, the guy i was going to try and spend eternity with, didn't want to look or speak to me. My eyes watered and i brought my knees to my chest and stiffled back my sobs. He pulled out a ring and rolled it in between his fingers, his eyes glazed over with a look i could never recognize. 

" Listen.... i know you probably don't want to talk but i need to know that he is okay." I managed between the sobs. Loki looked at the wall in front of him and let out a loud sigh. His hands still playing with the simply gold ring with a word etched in it. 

" James is fine, shook up but fine." His voice was shaky and lost of its usual charm which hurt more then you would expect. I put my face in my hands and tried to shakily wipe away the tears flowing down my face, but it was no use. I saw Loki bite his lip and then he reached for my phone. He turned on my music and the songs played softly over my tears. I didn't know if he had done it for himself or for me, but at the same time i couldn't bring myself to care. Slowly he reached and grabbed his knife. He brought it and looked it over, inspecting for any blood. I can't tell you how long we sat there as i cried and he stopped himself from whatever was racing in his head. Outside out window i heard the soft pitter-patter of the rain that should not have been falling. My body grew week and tired and i had to give in, yet i couldn't seem to actually sleep. My head continued to rest on my knee and my eyes closed. Then i felt Loki touch my hair gently and place the ring in my hand. 

"Close you eyes and dream of a better land. Dream of the sky's of blue and worlds of new. Dream of the sun shine that lives in the back of your mind. And selfishly i ask you to dream of me, forever and always. Close your eyes and dream of all the sweet things that might have been. And when you wake i will be here waiting for you again. Close you eyes and dream, my darling, dream of a better land. A better land for you and me, forever and always." Loki hummed out in a lullaby tune. His voice was calmer now, but i still felt his pain. even still i was lulled to sleep. 

I sat alone in a cell. It seemed clear from the inside. A small bed in the corner, a small bath like area, and a desk covered in paper. Each piece of paper had the beginning of words on it, yet they seemed to trail into either scribbles or another language. I looked sickly and very unhealthy, something i didn't ever expect myself to be. i sat in the corner of the cell, my body shaking from how cold it was, and then i saw Loki move outside the cell. I jumped to the edge and placed my hands on the clear glass, but Loki didn't look at me. I somehow knew  the one making him look away, and i also somehow knew that he wasn't looking away from me but that he couldn't see me.
