Inside My Head - A Loki Fanfiction

Chapter 21

You woke up in the middle of the night feeling thirsty. You went down to the kitchen and grabbed some cold water in a glass. You stood by the casement and stared out. You opened it and breathed the cold air. ‘I can’t help it I need a walk.’ You took your hoodie and slowly crept out of the tower, heading in some direction, just wanting to relax. You walked down the street for about 15 minutes until you reached the end. You turned back and as you were about to walk, you heard someone sobbing on your left. It was quite dark and you couldn’t figure out who it was. You decided to check, knowing that it was risky. Your heart stopped when you saw Tony lying on the floor, blood all over his body.

“Oh my god TONY!” you ran up to him and he saw you.

“Stay.away.from.me.” he said and glared at you. You ignored him and kneeled beside him. As you were about to help him up, your hand went through him. Illusion. “Wha- what the heck?” you mumbled to yourself, looking around.

“TONY! TONY WHERE ARE YOU!” you said and started to run down the street. Tears streaming down your cheeks, the cold breeze hitting your face, making you shiver, you ended up bumping into a figure. It looked more like a woman. You tried to look through your tears but she had a black hoodie and a mask on, which covered her face. You could see her eyes; they were jet black. “I'm sorry.” You said and she just walked slightly pushing you. You sensed Steve walking towards your room in the tower and immediately teleported yourself on your bed. The door opened and you closed your eyes.

“See? I told you she’s right here. why would she go out at midnight?” Steve whispered. “I swear I saw her walking down the streets.” Someone else whispered, who was maybe Bruce. You heard the door shut and sat up. You wanted to tell somebody about what you saw. But you couldn’t think of anyone.

Loki.

You didn’t want to walk and thought of teleporting. But that wouldn’t be good. You debated with yourself and ended up teleporting to Loki’s room. Loki wasn’t on his bed. The bathroom light was on. Maybe he was in the bathroom. “Loki?” you knocked on the bathroom door and it opened.

“oh Y/N. hey wh- oh my god are you crying?” Loki said and you just hugged him and cried yourself out, even if he was shirtless. “hey hey its okay I'm here. what happened?” he said and guided you to his bed. You both sat down and he wrapped his blankets around you. “Y/N you're shivering. What happened?” he said and knelt in front of you. You couldn’t get words out of your mouth. “I- I saw… I saw Tony.” “Oh dear maybe it was a bad dream sweetheart.” “No. it wasn’t a dream” and then you told him everything. “an illusion that can speak, it is only possible for a master of it to create such illusions. On this Earth, only you and me know the trick. Who else could it be?” Loki said and your eyes started to burn. You ran into the bathroom and washed your eyes with cold water. You looked yourself in the mirror and screamed. Your eyes were now bloodshot red. Loki came in running and gasped at you. “Loki what is happening?” you said and looked at your hands. Your magic was slowly pulling itself out of you. “Y/N… what are you doing?” Loki said backing up. “I’m not doing anything Loki!” you said and closed your eyes.

“I don’t wanna hurt you. I'm sorry.”

“Y/N wait no!”

you teleported back to your room, casting a spell so that Loki doesn’t teleport in, and locked the door. You laid down on your bed and wrapped as many blankets as you could, and laid on the floor, shivering. “Y/N open the door. Please Y/N.” Loki banged the door many times. No one woke up though, maybe he casted a spell too. “Y/N your spell is too strong please open the door.” You ignored closing your eyes. Everything was now silent. You woke up, with your head spinning, and in an unknown room. You squeezed your eyes and opened them again to get a better focus. Your hands were chained. You looked around and saw no one, nothing. “Is anyone there?” you shouted. A woman appeared in front of the glass of the room. She looked up and you realized it was the same woman you met on the street.

“what do you want?” you snarled, trying to break free from the chains. “oh darling, it feels so good to me to see you like this.” She spoke. “what do you WANT!” you shouted and tried to go to her, but the chains pulled you back. “You took everything from me.” she whispered, getting closer to me. “I don’t even know who you are.” You said, trying to speak to Loki through telekinesis. “your telekinesis won't work here. He wont be able to hear you.” she said and projected the CCTV footage of the living room. You could see Loki, Steve, and Bruce talking and laughing. “what did you do to me…” you said and a tear rolled down your face when you realized you didn’t have your powers. “oh I did nothing. But I know they mean a lot to you. Well, Loki is targeted by my men, and If you want to save him, you need to do something for me.” she said walking away from you.

“No… oh no no no I’ll do anything just please don't do anything to him” you asked, giving up and sitting on the floor. You could sense her smirk under her mask. “Is that love, I sense, Y/N?”

“ yes, well, I love him dearly because he is my best friend.” You said and glared at her. “ah, fair enough.” She said and sat on a chair, which you never noticed.

“Now, the business.”
