Legend

Hostage

I've been on Asgard for a couple weeks now. I visit my father a lot. Thor and I haven't talked much. We see each other around. I go to Midgard at least 5 times a week.

Everything feels distant with Thor. Loki is upset that I agreed to marry Thor.

I go visit Loki in the dungeons sometimes. Nothing more than would be suspicious.

I sit and read a book at a café in New York. I have handled things with everyone. I even apologized to Natasha.

"You read boring books," Loki says.

I jump and knock the coffee over. I groan.

Loki please stop. This is ridiculous. You are scaring me because I can't anticipate it.

I take a deep breath and get up to clean the mess. I see some people staring at me in the corner but I ignore it. They might think I look familiar.

I feel something wrong in my stomach. Is it Loki? No it's someone else. But who?

I teleport to where the feeling is coming from. I see someone I haven't recognized before.

The man is muscular. He points a gun at me. I put my hands into the air.

"I'm here to help," I say.

He takes off his mask and looks at me.

"Are you Howard Stark's daughter?" He asks.

I shake my head.

"You look similar to his son," the man says.

I can't tell him the truth. I smile lightly.

"What's your name?" I ask.

"I don't know," he answers. I put my hands down.

"Is it okay if I come near you? I'll help you the best to my abilities," I say.

He lowers the gun and nods. So I slowly start moving to him.

"My name is Montgomery," I tell him.

Something about him seems off. I look at him and take off the mask. I cannot believe my eyes.

James Buchanan Barnes.

He throws a hard punch and I fall. I am screwed on a whole other level. He's the Winter Soldier.

He tries to grab me but I kick him back. It doesn't do much to him.

This was a trap. Why was it a trap though?

He starts to choke me. I kick him into the best I can. He hits my head hard.

I'm in the prison with Loki. He looks confused.

"You're supposed to be knocked out," Loki says.

I look around in here.

"I don't even understand how I'm here," I reply. I feel his heart showing down. "You were worried about me."

"I wasn't," he says.

I chuckle.

"Loki we're bonded in some sort of way I can't even begin to understand. I am going to be held captive. This is a disaster," I explain. He nods.

Loki comes closer to me. He tries to run his hand through my hair but he goes straight through me. I put my hand through the wall.

I'm not actually here. I look Loki directly in the eye. He has curiosity in his mind. I smile.

"It's funny I can't actually hear your thoughts but I know what you're feeling," I chuckle.

He doesn't say anything. I concentrate hard enough to actually touch his cheek.
