Chapter 30 Loki's pov

Trigger Warning- mentions of violence and torture.

I groan as I start to come back from the darkness of unconsciousness. I open my eyes, only to find more darkness. I try to move my hands to my face only to find my wrists bound in what feels like shackles.

"What in the 9s is going on?" I question out loud. I hear a groan on either side of me in response.

"Sargent? Cerberus? Is that you?" I ask, trying to get my bearings.

"It's us Green, can you stop yelling now I have a headache." Bucky says before a quiet 'fuck' is heard as chains rattle.

"Do either of you know what is going on? All I remember was yelling at you in the alley and then Bucky being hit by a dart or something." Cerberus says

"No, I have no clue. Loki?" Bucky says.

"No, but I have an idea of what might be happening. It seems we've been kidnapped. My guess would be Hydra, so they can use us against the kitten." I say.

"These chains have a binding spell on them, a strong one at that. I've only felt this much power from Lucifer. I can't use my magic at all." Cerberus says. I try to use mine as well, only getting a very weak response.

"I have next to none. How powerful is this girl?" I ask more in surprise than doubt.

"More than. This isn't going to end well for anyone." Cerberus says.

"Hey Green, remember when I mentioned the melting? Well...be prepared." Bucky says after a minute of silence.

"Melting?" Cerberus asks, almost nervously.

"She's a powerful force." Bucky answers without actually explaining.

"She'll find us, she can track us now. She'll probably bring the whole team." Cerberus says after another few minutes of silence. All of a sudden the chains around my wrist start to move, in an upward motion.

"What's happening?" I ask, hearing the 2 let out confused noises. We stop moving, now hanging by our wrists, and still for a moment. A door opens on the far side of the room. Multiple footsteps sound out, moving towards us, and then stop once right in front of us.

"Ah, if it isn't the bitch's lap dogs. I originally wanted to take her, but it seems like you avengers never leave her alone. So I guess you 3 will have to do, since she cares so much about you." A male voice says, that I recognize instantly.

"Jones. What a misfortune to have to meet you again. Aren't you supposed to be waiting for a trial in a cell?" I ask with a smirk. In response I get a kick to the stomach, making me grunt.

"Watch your mouth mutt. That bitch took everything from me, took the company that is rightfully mine! She'll pay. And you'll be the cost." He says.

"Rough them up a bit. I want her to see them bleed." Jones says again before a flurry of blows rain down on me, and I assume the other 2 as well. I try to fight back as much as I can but it's not that effective, given I'm in chains and suspended. I can keep a knife run down my left arm, making it bleed. After a good hour of them beating on us has passed he speaks again.

"Alright, that's enough for now. Step to the sides of the room." He says as feet shuffle away. The next moment I hear a camera turn on and a button pressed.

"Hello, slut. I got your boy toys now. You should have just let me have my fun with you, this would have never happened. Now, I've lost everything. So, I've taken your everything. Bye bitch, I'll send you the pieces." Jones says as I hear him step to the side. Another click sounds out.

"You're as good as dead when she finds you. How does it feel to have the devil knocking at your door?" I say with a growl.

"She won't find me, that video was untraceable." He says with a laugh, causing me to smirk. He didn't know she could track us, and I wasn't going to tell him that either.

"Stop looking at me like that. All of you."  He says but I don't lose my grin and I know the others are the same.

"Fine. Take apart his arm. I'll send her the insides first. Same with the other one. Sew that one's mouth shut while I think about what to take from him. Maybe his hair first? I'm not sure. Be as rough as you want. I'll be back in a little bit." Jones says, walking away.

I start to fight my bounds again as I hear them start on Bucky and Cerb. They lower me down a little until I feel someone put me in a headlock.

"Hope this hurts asshole." A gruff voice says in my face as I feel a needle push into the skin around my upper lip. I hold in the pained sounds that wants to push forward and hold still, knowing it will hurt worse if I move.

He finally finishes and the arms release my head. I start to struggle again as they raise me once more. I hear the others start fighting again as well, meaning they had done what was asked. A moment later, I hear sounds of struggle all around us, making us all pull harder at our wrists.

This continues for another few minutes until the room stills and I hear Cerberus stop fighting. Bucky is next to quiet, sighing slightly. Then I hear manic laughter, coming from a female source. I calm myself and then hear the cracks of limiters ringing in the room. All at once our heads snap in that direction, not seeing but knowing it's Mae.

We hear someone take a step closer to us before the blindfold disappears from over my eyes. And that's when I see her, in her hero outfit I made for her, eyes almost glowing white before she closes them. She opens them again, now glowing bright red.

A purple mist starts to cover the room as her limiters crumble away from her, completely overpowered. Her horns grow through her red hair, glowing bright red, almost like they are on fire as I see her tail flick around her. What happened next left me breathless.

Black wings. Massive black wings spring from her back as the tips start flaming.

I stare in shock at her before hearing Cerberus mumble.

"I've never seen that before." He whispers in disbelief. Another second passes in silence.

"Babydoll no!" Bucky yells, the rest of us still in shock, seeming to know what was about to happen.

"Hush love, it will all be fine in a moment." She says in that voice I've only heard twice. Just like that, all of the people in the room start melting into piles of liquid, except for the team. Blood goes everywhere as they all collapse.

Then, Mike Jones was standing in front of her. I could feel the terror radiating from him.

"You shouldn't have touched my men." She says, stepping up to him, floating to his height and grabbing his face. I almost laugh as he releases his bladder into his pants.

"You thought you could play the victim, and blame me for your loss. You thought you could take what is mine without so much as a consequence or inconvenience. You should have let the justice system do what they wanted with you because now, you'll face my wrath, and no one can save you from the fate you have chosen. You are an ignorant fool who tried to take on the devil herself. The only person who ever causes your problems is yourself so you should stop trying to pin the fault on other people. You made your bed, now lay in it you good for nothing scum." Mae says before punching him in the face and tossing him like a rag doll to Nat and Clint.

She walks to us, still floating, and wraps us in her power. The chains holding us turn to dust and we are set gently down on the floor.

"Don't move loves, it's okay now. I'm here." She says in a soft voice, tears coming to her eyes.

Thor comes to pick me up, leaving his hammer on the floor, as the captain comes to do the same with Bucky. I'm surprised when Stark is the one to come grab Cerberus but I'm still shocked by the angel among us.

She nods before picking up Thor's hammer and Cap's shield. We all walk back to the jet, her wings folding and disappearing as we board.

Stark is the first one to speak once we're back to the tower.

"How is she still worthy? She just melted people." Tony asks. Natasha hits him while everyone else just ignores him as we get into the medical room. The 3 of us are set on beds as Mae speaks.

"Stark, make me new limiters please? 4 works best." She asks. He nods and starts to leave.

"Out." She says next, making all the rest leave, besides my brother and Natasha. She sighs before turning to look at us. Mae waves a purple hand at us and the world turns black.
