Loki sighs softly. Bucky nuzzles his way in between us. Loki chuckles and lays completely down. I chuckle. He gets up.
"Come on."
"Okay?"
"Bucky, you just get some rest... I'm going to show Cap around."
Bucky tiredly nods. Bucky falls asleep. I follow Loki around. He finally leads me outside. Oh crap, it's cold!! He hands me a jacket. I quickly throw it on. He smiles.
"Better?"
I nod.
"Let me give you some tips."
"Okay."
"You can make your claws come out whenever you want. Flex your fingers like this."
I do it. Woah! He smiles.
"There you go. Do it again and they'll retract."
"Cool!"
We start to head in.
"Hey you know how you talked about the joining team thing?"
"Mhm?"
"I want to."
"Okay."
Loki leads me to the queen.
"Hello, Loki, Steve."
"Hello, your highness," I say with a bow. She smiles.
"What's up?"
"Aunt Lumikiki, Steve wants to join our division if that is okay—"
"Of course! You're the only division with five!"
"Really?"
"Mhm. Everyone else has at least ten!"
"Okay then... well we have to vote on it now."
"Wait—?"
"It's just formalities because that's what we do."
"Really?"
"Yeah... everyone wants you on the team but we want to keep the tradition so we all know we're included."
"Okay."
"Come on."
Bucky is awake.
"I was just about to head to our meeting room."
"Let's go."
We walk in. Bucky sits down. Living Mummy smiles.
"So Captain Steve Rogers aka Captain America aka Cap Wolf wants to join the group... all in favor say yes."
"Yes."
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes...Well that's unanimous!"
"Welcome aboard!" Morbius cries. I have to hold back a laugh.
"Loki?" Bucky asks weakly.
"Hm?"
"I don't feel so good."
He sighs softly. Loki carries Bucky to bed. I follow. He cries.
"What's wrong?"
"I feel so bad."
Loki feels his forehead.
"You're burning with fever!"
He moans weakly. Loki dashes out then comes back with some washcloths.
"Just lay down, Bucky."
"Okay."
He puts one on Bucky's forehead.
"Just sleep."
"'Kay."
Bucky falls asleep.
"Until he's better you should stay in my room, I'll sleep on the couch."
"No, I'll take the couch."
"No, it's fine."
"No—"
"Cap... just shut up."
"Wow!"
He laughs softly. I smile. Loki sighs and says, "come on."
I nod. We walk into his room. I smile softly.
"Thanks, by the way."
"For what?"
"Everything you've done... you saved my life, remember?"
He smiles.
"It's nothing."
I smile. He smiles back then gets a couple blankets and a pillow. He sighs softly. I smile again. He lays down and falls asleep. I can't help but smile. He doesn't seem half as bad as they make him out to be... and definitely not the man who hurt my friends... if he was evil... he definitely isn't now... quite the opposite... and there is the Bucky thing... I sigh softly and lay down. Bucky... how did he get here? He seems so settled. Loki wakes up. He looks over and sees me awake.
"You okay?" He asks.
"Not tired... and have a lot of questions."
He nods and gets up. He sits down beside me.
"Fire away."
"Okay?"
"Ask away."
"Oh."
"Mhm."
"How did Bucky get here?"
"After the changelings and HYDRA captured Bucky to reprogram him back into the Winter Soldier, they tossed him into the cell where they were keeping me. I broke us both out as I got the information I needed."
I nod.
"That was four years ago."
"Really?"
"Mhm."
I lay back down.

The next morning.

I wake up. Loki smiles softly and says, "you fell asleep while I went to explain."
"Oh, sorry."
"It's fine, I thought it was funny."
"Oh okay."
Loki leads me to a room. He shows me how to transform back and forth. Loki softly sighs then goes to check on Bucky.
"How do you feel now?" He asks.
"So much better!" Bucky says getting up. Loki smiles and helps him up.
"Thanks!"
"No problem... My headaches...tell Aunt Lumikiki—"
"Today's our day off, remember?"
"Oh yeah well still tell her."
"Okay lol."
Loki goes to walk to his room but collapses on the way. Bucky nods to me and we help him back to his room. Morbius is curled up in Loki's bed.
"Probably had a nightmare," Loki says softly. As soon as we lay Loki down, Morbius grabs Loki tightly. Bucky chuckles and smiles.

Thor's POV Dream.

What is this place? Loki sits up.
"Where am we, Loki?" I shout.
"What?" He asks then adds, "Where are we?"
"I was asking you!"
"Sorry, but I don't know."
"You always do this! You are a fucking bastard! You're a piece of shit!"
Loki looks confused.
"Thor, I, honest to god, have no clue where we are!"
"You fucking bitch!"
"You know what? Fuck it! I was going to help you for your friend after Leon told me what happened but fuck you and it! I won't do it! I won't torture myself for you anymore!"
"I hope you get enslaved and beaten!"
Loki's eyes turn angry then he just starts laughing with pained tears in his eyes. I step back feeling something crawling down my back.
"What's so funny?" I shout.
"Wouldn't be my first time," he says before giving a sad laugh. I laugh.
"You're just playing with my mind!"
"No," he says looking down to the strange blue crystal on his neck. Grrr, he's always avoiding! Loki looks up crying. He looks hurt.
"What?" I growl.
"You don't know me at all!"
"Whatever!"
I rip the necklace off him.
"I'm keeping this... I also hope you almost die!"
Loki's eyes fill with both fear and tears. Suddenly, he just collapses wide eyed. He screams then disappears.

Morbius' POV

N—no! Loki! He made my best friend disappear!!!

Loki's POV

I wake up. Oh! God no! No! No! No! Not again! The guy forces me to look into his eyes. He laughs.
