The Avengers New Cat | Loki Laufeyson Romance | COMPLETE

I dont believe you.

Suddenly things had switched, it would take twice as long to reach her with the bold numbers glaring back at me hauntingly. 446. 

And it ends on an uneven number and judging by the further doors leading down they dont stop. There are more. I let out a groan my hands balling into fists to fight the twitching irritation.

"Loki you there?" I heard the buzzing voice from a small device that was handed out to each of us before we left the hovering contraption. The voice sounded like Starks.

"yes" I grunted deciding to peer through the murky small squares of glass at the top of each door which thankfully was at my height. I walked and continued my conversation with Stark as I searched.

"There are far too many cells for me to look in on my own-"

"got it, back up is on the way reindeer games!" 

I rolled my eyes at his remark but said nothing when I heard softer boot thuds behind me, I turned slightly to ease the paranoia of it being an enemy only to be greeted by a redhead with pinched brows as she sped toward me.

"How far along have you checked back there?" She huffed out as I rose a brow, "I began at 446- I have not explored ahead but I have not seen behind 446 since I teleported at that exact cell"

She pursed her lips, nodded and paused, I turned to face her as she gave me a scrunched look before huffing out a sigh 

"Im going to take the ones you did beforehand but- I do hope it's you Loki, that finds her first, and make it quick" My eyes widened a fraction as the assassin made her way off in the opposite direction.

I forced the word out "why?" My voice echoed and she stopped before turning her head only slightly enough for me to see her stern side profile. "Because I believe you two have something special"

Was all she told me before communicating with someone on the other line to the piece in her ear. I wasn't left to ponder long as I heard a crash in one of the cells ahead.

I made quick work of stalking down the many halls, the one that had crashing only had a deranged bald patient who looked to be in his 60's. Time was ticking and with each step and thud of my boots, I was growing more and more aggravated that I had come no closer to seeing my mortal.

"Hey!" I stopped at the feminine voice and quickly stalked ahead where I heard the voice. I peered into the cell to see a brunette woman looking back at me. At first, I had thought it was her but my hope was diminished when the girl's features didn't match.

She squinted at me before cocking her head slightly "I know you from somewhere..." I let out an agitated noise and began to stalk away. She was wasting my time.

"WAIT! You're the one who helped Sparrow! You're that Loki guy!" 

I froze and turned back around, looking at her closer I realized she had an aura of familiarity to her but I could not pinpoint from where.

"please you gotta get me out of here, I was tricked by the leader-James, that fucking bastard- we dated but-"

"you look young. The leader is not a young man-"

She turned red and scuffled on her feet, her clothes were slightly torn but rather messy as though she had been thrown around a bit. "I-I know but I thought he loved me okay! just get me out of here, please? I know where Sparrow is!"

I narrowed my eyes at her before looking down the empty corridor. Who knew how many other cells were in this facility? could I even trust her? likely not.

But a dagger to her heart would easily put her out.

"how do you know Sparrow?"

"We are best friends! I got taken with her but the leader convinced me he loved me..."
