Papa

I was getting ready for battle. I put on some black pants and a black long sleeve shirt, I wore my dark green vest, I had my weapon belt for my dagger, and some black boots. After I had changed into my suit, I went outside to get Steve and Sam.

I looked to my left to see Loki standing behind one of the trees. I sighed. "I don't know if you're really here or if I'm going crazy. Sam and Nat said I'm not crazy, but I don't know if they're right. It's been tough, knowing that you're not here anymore, Papa. I really do miss you", I said. I came up with an idea. I wanted to prove that I'm not crazy because I wanted to be with my Papa again.

"Papa, I have an idea. I'm going to close my eyes. When I open them and you're here, I'll know that I can be with you again", I said. I closed my eyes and took a deep breathe. "Please". I put on my best smile, hoping that Loki would be there.

I opened my eyes and....

My smile faded. He wasn't there. He was really gone. I felt a hand on my shoulder. My smile returned. "Loki", I said as I hugged the person behind me.

I looked up at him, but my smile faded when I saw it was just Steve with Sam beside him.

"No. Just us", Steve says.

"You're not him. He's really gone", I said as I let go of Steve. Steve puts a hand on my shoulder.

"I know you miss your dad, Zee. If he watched over you and saw you save the world for the second time, I think he'd be proud of you", Steve says.

I looked up at Steve and nodded. "And I'm going to use this while doing it", I said, holding up my dagger. Steve and Sam smiled at me.

The three of us went back inside to prepare to save the world.

Loki's point of view

"I'm going to close my eyes. When I open them and you're here, I'll know that I can be with you again", Zia says. I watched my little girl closed her eyes.

No one knows that I'm still alive. I wanted to tell her I'm still here, but if she finds out I lied to her, will she still look at me as some sort of hero? "Please", She said.

I decided that it was best if she thought I was dead because my young Zia deserved more than me. She had Barton and Romanoff, she had Thor and Stark. Ever since I came into her life, all I did was kill. I killed her friend, I took over Barton's mind and I almost took over her home.

Zia is a strong, brave, fierce and stubborn young lady. I had to watch over her until I could really make things right.

That means I have to make sure Thanos never lays a hand on her.
