Brother America (A Captain America Story) WATTYS 2015

Chapter 14~Skirmish

☆Callie's POV☆

My lightsaber erupts out of the hilt just as Loki fires a ball of blue energy at me. I let my instincts flick my lightsaber to try and deflect the energy. It happens so quickly.

My lightsaber does a clean parry in front of me, the energy from Loki's scepter hitting my humming blue blade head on. No sooner that it hits, it is immediatly deflected back at Loki, making him fly backwards from the impact. I take a shaky breath. That could've ended pretty horribly if my saber hadn't deflected it.

I hear a thud next to me and see Steve land next to me in full uniform. His shield, helmet, and suit stand out, proud and bold, as he begins stepping towards Loki, who is getting up.

"You know, the last time I was in Germany, and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing," Steve steps up to Loki.

"The soldier," Loki seethes. "A man out of time."

"I'm not the one who's outta time," Steve says smugly as the sound of an engine jet becomes clear overhead. I glance up, the wind from the engines blowing my dress around. Natasha's voice echoes around the plaza over the P.A system.

"Loki, drop the weapon and stand down," she commands. Loki just smiles and sends a shot of blue energy towards the jet. Typical villainy.

Steve responds immediatly, hurling his shield at Loki's chest, catching it as it boomerangs back. I don't know what to do as Steve and Loki lock into a fight.

☆Steve's POV☆

I hit Loki hard every time, but Loki keeps defending himself. Then, Loki hits me straight in the chest, and I'm thrusted backwards.

I get back up, breathing heavily. My ribs ache from the impact of the butt of his staff. If I can disarm him from his staff, it might help our cause, I think as I hurtle my shield back again, but Loki just slaps  it off to the side.

Plan B.

I charge Loki, dodging his glowing staff as I get in close, punching and defending myself fast. I feel a rough blow to my back, and I am once again chucked to the side by yet another blow from Loki's staff.

Loki strides up to me and places the butt of his staff at the base of my neck.

"Kneel," he orders, breathing heavily. I glimpse Callie out of the corner of my eye picking up my shield. I smirk.

"Not today," I retort as Callie yells,

"Heads up!" And she whips my shield at me.

It came at me in perfect form as Loki is distracted by Callie's voice, and I catch it on my arm. I don't have time to comprehend how she just threw my shield, so I keep beating Loki up.

I am once again thrown from Loki, rolling around on the ground. I suddenly hear loud and obnoxious music blast from the speakers on the jet. I roll on my side to look up in the sky, a ball of light moving fast through the skies. Loki looks skyward as well, following the object as a blast of energy burst from both of its hands, thrusting Loki backwards and into a set of stairs.

It lands on its feet, standing to its full size. It's Tony in his metal Iron Man suit. Callie walks over to us as I stand up, her lightsaber humming.

Tony activates every weapon on his suit, aiming them at Loki.

"Make your move, reindeer games," his voice comes out monotone from inside the suit. Loki raises his arms in surrender, morphing out from his outfit into a party tux. Callie nods.

"Good move," she interjects. I give her a single pat on the back.

"Mr. Stark," I greet the iron man.

"Captain; Callie," he returns.

"Its Tempest," she corrects.

Loki just sits there, looking at the three of us back and forth. Something isn't right here.
