Water and Ice (Loki Love Story)

Chapter 50

Aqua's P. O. V:

"This is the Asgardian Refugee Vessel, we're under assault! I repeat! We're under assault! Millions are dead. Life boards have failed! Requesting aid from any aid in the range! We're about 22 yards out of Asgard! We have dead Asgardians families! We have little control here! This is not a warcraft! I repeat: this is not a warcraft!" Heimdall says frantically over the intercom, before he, too is taken out by the giant, tall, purple skinned, giant chinned, armor wearing alien, a gauntlet with one purple coloured stone the knuckle on his hand and knuckle. All his armor is gold.

Another ship fires as I stand mostly almost hidden behind my husband, gripping my hand in a vicelike grip.

Loki and I had shared another deep kiss and quick embrace just before coming out here.

Fire flickers around us as almost everyone lies dead. Val, and even Korg, Meik and Heimdall were taken out.

I could only stare with an ashen face, as a tall, lean figure with a bent nose says as he walks forward, over fallen Asgardians, "Here me, and rejoice! You have had the privilege of being saved by the Great Titan! You may think this is suffering. No. It is salvation! The universal scales tipped toward balance because of your sacrifice." A guard steps up to a live Asgardian and plunges his spear into them, and it took everything I had not to cry out or blanch, my eyes so wide they hurt. "Smile. For even in death, you have become children of Thanos!"

This guy..... he looks like a freaking live action version of fucking Squidwaed Q. Tentacles from Spongebob Squarepants, only without the tentacles part and made from god awful SGI.

Just before the attack, I'd called Fury and he'd immediately ranted at me about not having called him in two fucking years, but I'd apologised, saying that I was sorry because I might not make it back to work anytime soon, and told him I'm with my husband, Loki, and Thor , and that we'd hit the mothership.

I couldn't tell him more than that, as we were attacked.

Loki's grip seems to tighten on my hand even more as we both look back at the armored titan standing with his back before us. Thanos states as he turns toward us, "I know what it's like to lose. You feel so desperately that you're right, yet to fail nonetheless." He turns to Thor who is lying on his back on the ground, and picks him up by his neck, groaning in pain. Thanos slowly walks towards us as he speaks. "It is frightening. Turns the legs to jelly. I ask you to what end do you dread it, run from it. Destiny arrives all the same. And now, it's here! Or, should I say... I am!" Thanos holds up his left hand with the magic gauntlet and clenches his fist tightly, a stone glowing purple on the knuckle of his left index finger.
