The Hero Inside (Loki x Mutant Reader) (DISCONTINUED)

King Loki

It has been a few months now. You and Steve got along really well. The day you showed him your abilities, he was really impressed. You've been with him everywhere. You helped get survivors to an underground safety spot, which was one of S.H.I.E.L.D's locations. It housed thousands of survivors. Now that you and Steve have been everywhere in the U.S. searching for survivors, you and Steve have taken a break for about two weeks. Then it all ended. It started out as any regular day..

You were in the cafeteria, eating dinner. Steve was in conference with Nick Fury. You ate comfortably as you watched the survivors around you.

Children playing tag. Mothers feeding their babies. Teenagers bonding with other teenagers. The elderly bonding with others.

It brought you comfort that you and Steve brought this much happiness. Steve became your bestfriend and you became his.

He then came in, his face serious.

"Is everything alright?" you asked.

"Fury found where Loki is. And the rest of my team."

"Then...shouldn't you be happy about that?" you asked.

Steve shook his head. "It's just..it's in the most obvious place and I just can't believe I didn't think to look there!" He buried his face in his hands.

You hugged him. "We'll get them back. Where are they?"

Steve looked at you. "They are in New York..In Stark Tower."

                     ~°~°~°~°~°~°~

You and Steve took a S.H.I.E.L.D jet to New York. You were alittle scared that you were actually going to come across the so called King Loki. You don't know why, but something about him terrified you.

Steve seemed to notice. The whole time, you two have been silent. And that was a long time, since you were able to tell you were almost in New York.

"Are you alright, (y/n)?" he asked.

"Yes..just alittle bit afraid."

Steve looked at you with sympathy. He put the jet on auto pilot and turned to face you.

"(y/n)..I want you to know that I would never ever let anything happen to you. I'll fight and die fighting if it meant keeping you safe." he said.

You looked down, but immediately you felt Steve's hand on your chin, raising your head to look at him. He then leaned closer to you, and you realized what he intended to do.

You placed a hand on his chest, stopping him and you leaned back alittle.

"I'm sorry, Steve..I see you as a friend..not in..that way." you said.

Steve blushed bright red. "I-I'm sorry I-"

"There's no need to apologize...But I'd like you to know that I'd also die protecting you. This hellhole needs a hero."

Steve smiled a bit.

He turned off auto pilot and continued flying the jet. A few minutes later he said, "We're here."

You looked out and there it was. Stark Tower.

"Why isn't there anything guarding the skies?" you wondered.

"Probably Loki didn't think of that." said Steve.

He landed the jet on the roof of Stark Tower. When the two of you got off you headed toward the stairs and into a room in the tower. The room was almost empty, except it had a bar. But there was no one to be seen.

"Where is everyone?" wondered Steve. As if on cue, the Chitauri came down from the ceiling. You fought them off, freezing and burning them. You kicked and punched the ones that got too close.

Then it all seemed cleared up. You then heard someone get hit hard with something metal.

You turned to where Steve was, and he was sprawled on the floor. And facing you was a man.

He had raven black hair with curls that pointed up. He wore a golden helmet with horns, a black, gold, and green armour, and a green cape. His eyes were clear blue, and he looked at you with a malevolent expression. He walked toward you, a scepter in his hand.

Then he was right in front of you.

"Kneel before your king!" he ordered.

Loki.

You stood there in shock.

"I said KNEEL!!!" he yelled and pushed you to the ground. You hit your head hard, but you pretended to be unconscious.

You heard Loki walk over to you. You felt his presence as he towered over your body. He then kicked you hard on the side and you suppressed a scream. You kept your eyes shut.

"Huh, pathetic weak mortal." you heard him say and he started to walk away. You took that as an opportunity and you got up quickly and shot some ice at him. He stumbled when it hit him, but it didn't freeze him up.

He turned to face you and you could tell he was pissed off now...except, he turned blue..his eyes were blood red.

"You dare to attack me when my back is turned coward!?" He pointed his scepter at you and you felt a sharp pain on your torso. You weren't sure if you felt blood trickle from your lips. Then everything went black.
