Chapter 9: The Surprise

Elizabeth's P.O.V.

It was 5 o'clock and I was running a little late. I got on one of Tony's motorcycles and sped off. I was lucky I didn't get pulled over, and got only green lights. As I'm parking the motorcycle in my reserved spot I thought I heard something in the bushes, but thought nothing of it. I walk in through the back doors and start to get ready to preform. I put on my black hair dye and a Santa costume since it's Christmas time, and I have to do at least one Christmas song. ->

back stage for my signal. I hate this dress it feels like sandpaper with sparkles glued on top. As I'm waiting I noticed that my parents have yet to yell at me or see me, which is very strange. Then I hear my signal.

"I hope you've all been very good, because Santa has brought us an early Christmas present. Let's give it up for Santa's little helper." The DJ exclaimed. As the music starts I get on stage, and see all my parents and Thanos in my Father's private box, but also the avengers failing to fit in at the bar. Oh crap I'm so screwed, how am I ever going to get out of this. I try to think of an idea as I sing.

When I finish singing, I run back to my room trying to figure out how I'm going to get out of this.

Loki's P.O.V.

     Before Elizabeth left, Stark put a tracker thing on her jacket and it lead us to this odd building. We arrive as soon as she does and hide ourselves in a bush. Luckily she didn't hear us when we moved. Unfortunately when we got inside, we lost her. I don't understand why she would even be here, a lady such as herself surely wouldn't belong here with all the booze and blaring noise they call music. The avengers and I sit down at a table, and receive some odd looks. By the looks of it, I seem to blend in while everyone else in our group stands out like a sore thumb. I wear a black suit while the avengers wear more lively colors.

"Tony, what are we going to do? Should we wait for her to come out or leave this dump?" Natasha said.

"Relax Nat, we'll get a few drinks and see what happens." Tony responded.

      As soon as he said that a man wearing something over his ears, a green vest, a yellow hat, and a pink shirt yelled " I hope you've all been very good because Santa has brought us an early Christmas present. Let's  give it up for Santa's little helper." Lots of men wolf whistled as a lady with black hair in a scandalous dress and high black boots went on stage and stared at our group as she started to sing. She had the voice of an angel and could put anyone to shame. When she sang 'you' she pointed right at me. What could she possibly want with me? Midgardians aren't worth my time. When the song ended she seemed to run off stage in a hurry. I wanted to find Elizabeth and went searching. When I came back stage, I saw some doors and didn't know which on to go through. Then the singer came out one and ran right into me.

"I'm so sorry." She explained. Her voice sounded familiar.

"It's quite alright. Do I know you?" I asked trying to figure out who she is.

"Um...I don't think so." She said but I could tell she is lying, and when I looked into her blue eyes I realized that this was Elizabeth. Before I could say anything else, someone called her name.

"Sorry, but I really have to go."

"Alright." I said expecting an answer later tonight.

     I went back to my seat with the avengers who seemed to have ordered drinks, and by the looks of it Thor was drunk. Thor was dancing with some weird girl dressed up like a plant with red hair and she seemed to try and leave him. I'd do the same if I were her.

"Hey reindeer games, we all signed up for this weird raffle thing and your name is in the pot. I don't know what the prize is, but they said it is going to be great." Stark explained.

"I do not want to be a part of this at all Stark." I explained.

"Too late, your name is now Logan Smith." I roll my eyes and debate if I should get a drink.

"Why might I ask."

"We are in disguise so we need a cover up name for everyone."

"Why that name though it's horrible."

"Because everyone knows what you did last year, and reindeer games isn't considered a name so Logan. It sounds somewhat similar to Loki."

"You couldn't come up with anything better."

"Well Clint suggested we put Captain James Hook or the Grim Reaper."

"Never mind, Logan is better. I'm surrounded by idiots." I mumble to myself and debate if I should get a drink or not.

Elizabeth's P.O.V.

     I ran passed Loki to my dad, the Joker, who called me.

"What dad?" I asked pretty mad.

"Get changed into your other outfit the raffle is going to start and you are going to participate."

"Ugh......fine" I said as I went back to my dressing room. I get dressed into something formal because tonight's raffle winner will have to ballroom dance with me. I bet the whole reason as to why it's formal is because my parents want me to dance with Thanos. I dressed in a blue gown and silver heels. I put on dark makeup. ->

   I walk out onto the stage and stand next to my father.

"Tonight's raffle is to have a dance with our best singer and dancer known as black rose. Who will be tonight's lucky winner? If you may." My father says as he holds up the glass jar. I close my eyes and pulled out a name and gave it to him. "Logan Smith. Is there a Logan Smith?"

Loki's P.O.V.

I just sat down from getting a drink at the bar, when Stark told me the raffle was about to begin. I sat down as a strange man with green hair, red lips, white skin, tattoos, a purple shirt, and black pants walked on stage. Then Elizabeth walks on in a beautiful blue dress and I can't help but wonder what she would look like in it with her blonde hair.

"Tonight's raffle is to have a dance with our best singer and dancer known as black rose. Who will be tonight's lucky winner? If you may." The man says as he holds up the glass jar. Elizabeth closed her eyes and pulled out a name and gave it to him. "Logan Smith. Is there a Logan Smith?"

"Loki, that's you." Stark says.

"If you are here Mr. Smith please stand up." The weird man says. I stand up and make eye contact with Elizabeth. "Well come on up here and dance with Black Rose if you dare." He says in a joking way. I walk up onto the stage and face her with a smirk.

Elizabeth's P.O.V.

I'm very grateful the winner isn't Thanos, but by the smirk Loki is giving me I think he knows who I am. I whisper in his ear "we are gonna do a dance from Asgard since I doubt you know any Midgardian waltzes or dances." I leave him to tell the DJ what to play. I go right behind Loki and nod my head to the DJ to start playing the music.

When we finished dancing, the room was dead silent then had a loud applause abrupt from it. I did a curtsy and Loki took a bow and whispered in my ear "We'll talk about this later." I nodded and he walked back to the table. I was going to walk to my dressing room when my mother came on stage.

"Your other parents and Thanos want to talk to you in the box. I'll keep the crowd busy." Harley whispered. Harley got on stage and started to sing as I headed to the box.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

      When I got to the box, everyone in my family was there with Thanos (so Eclipsa, the Nightmare King, and Hades. The only people who weren't there besides Harley and the Joker was Zeus (because he disowned me) and Red Skull (because he is dead)). I sat down in on of the chairs at the table as they use magic to block all outside noises.

"Hello mother, fathers, and Thanos. What are you all doing here?" I asked innocently.

"Elizabeth, don't play dumb. We are here to talk about your wedding with Thanos." Eclipsa replied.

"Wait I thought I still had another year or two?"

"Actually you have two months, hence why we are starting the planning." Hades stated.

"But...."

"No excuses Elizabeth there is nothing you can do to postpone it or change it! Now we shall begin." Eclipsa said.

"Very well." I say trying to hide my emotions.

"Relax sweetheart it won't be that bad, before you know it we'll be ruling the nine realms and training our children to rule it." Thanos said with a grin.

Loki's P.O.V.

When Elizabeth got off stage, they put this weird girl on. I immediately started to somewhat miss Elizabeth's singing. The way she sang was pure perfection. I started to look for her and saw her enter a box. I went in to listen but could sense magic in it so I used some of mine to hear what they were talking about.

"Hello mother, fathers, and Thanos. What are you all doing here?" Elizabeth asked. As soon as she said Thanos my heart stopped. What would someone as perfect as Elizabeth want from Thanos?

"Elizabeth, don't play dumb. We are here to talk about your wedding with Thanos." A women replied. I was shocked. Why would Elizabeth agree to marry that monster. He'll torment her and only cause her suffering and pain.

"Wait I thought I still had another year or two?"

"Actually you have two months, hence why we are starting the planning." A man stated.

"But...."

"No excuses Elizabeth, there is nothing you can do to postpone it or change it! Now we shall begin." The women said.

"Very well." Elizabeth said with a saddened tone.

"Relax sweetheart it won't be that bad, before you know it we'll be ruling the nine realms and training our children to rule it." I heard Thanos say. Why if he even touches my Elizabeth I will kill Thanos. Wait my Elizabeth? Where did that come from?

I went back to the table and sat down next to Stark. "Dang reindeer games you sure now how to dance, and get a girl's attention. If I didn't know any better I'd say she liked you and you liked her." Stark said.

"Your blinded by your drinking Stark, besides I could care less for that mortal."

"Whatever helps you sleep." Stark replied. After a few more minutes the team forgot why we came here, and decided to head home and decided to question Elizabeth in the morning. As soon as we got to the tower, everyone but myself fell asleep on the floor because they were either drunk too or tired. I went into my chambers and went to sleep.

Elizabeth's P.O.V.

The wedding plans they started with were very little and small, and something people wouldn't notice such as how the napkins should be folded. When we finished up the small details it was 2 in the morning. My parents told me to visit Eclipsa and the Nightmare King to finish everything before the week of the wedding. I got onto my motorcycle and drove back to the tower trying not to crash. When I got inside I saw everyone on the floor asleep except for Loki, who I assumed went to  y room or his room. I went to my room and saw Loki wasn't there. I changed into something more comfortable and instantly fell asleep.
