Psych - HIATUS

ארבעה

Screw you, SHIELD, for not letting me come here with a weapon. Would it do any good? No, but I'd feel a little better with one right now! you think.

Clint moves to attack Loki, but you know how it'll end. Loki grabs his wrist and disarms Clint. Clint struggles to fight against the inhuman strength of Loki. "You have heart," Loki says, barely audible. Loki places the tip of the scepter on Clint's chest. You watch as blue trails up Clint's veins and Clint's eyes turn an overly brilliant blue. Loki lets go of his wrist and Clint holsters his pistol.

While Loki is mind controlling Clint, Fury helps you up and you follow his to the Tesseract. It is steaming with energy still. Fury places it in a case. He pulls you with him, trying to escape with you and the Tesseract.

"Please, don't. I still need that," Loki says, softly.

Fury turns to Loki, pulling you behind him. You peer over his shoulder. "This doesn't have to get any messier."

"Of course it does. I've come too far for anything else. I am Loki of Asgard, and I am burdened with glorious purpose."

"Loki? Brother of Thor?" Selvig asks as he checks for a pulse on a NASA scientist.

"We have no quarrel with your people," Fury reminds Loki.

"An ant had no quarrel with a boot."

"You planning to step on us?"

"I come with glad tidings, of a world made free."

"Free from what?"

"Freedom. Freedom is life's great lie. Once you accept that, in your heart-" Loki pauses to mind control Selvig. "You will know peace."

"Just what Lenin said. But things didn't turn out so great," you say. You didn't mean to say it out loud. You have to admit that Loki's monologue sounded like communist propaganda. Loki makes eye contact with you. You can feel the maliciousness coming off of him.

"This 'Lenin,' he was but a mortal. I'm a god," Loki says in response to your communism shaming.

Clint glances at the ceiling and sees energy building. "Sir, Director Fury is stalling. This place is about to blow. Drop a hundred feet of rock on us. He means to bury us." Despite knowing Fury will make it out, and will most likely take you, you shudder, imagining stone after stone piling on top of you.

"Like the Pharaohs of old," Fury confirms.

"He's right. The portal is collapsing in on itself. You got maybe two minutes before this goes critical," Selvig adds.

"Well then." Loki looks to Barton, who rapidly shoots Fury.

"Fury!" you shout in concern, trying to act like you didn't know Clint would shoot him. You bend down next to Fury, hoping Loki will leave you be. You look for the entry wound, pretending to slowly begin to panic.

Clint comes to you and Fury, grabbing the case holding the Tesseract. You fearfully look toward him, holding your breath. He roughly pulls you up and locks his arm around your waist, pinning your arms to your sides. You fight against his grip as Clint drags you to Loki. "Fury says she's a psychic," Clint explains to Loki. "Never seen her do anything like that, but I just barely met her. She described a vision of hers earlier, and it perfectly predicted the future."

"A psychic, eh?" Loki says in amusement. You put all of your strength into resisting Clint's hold on you, but his grip is firm. You panic, trying to escape Loki's piercing stare. Of everyone you've met, Loki is the most likely to see you as you truly are: a scared girl with nothing special about her. "I suppose you could be useful."

Loki brings the scepter slowly to your chest. Your mind is racing in panic. Your last reliable brain cell speaks up though. Pull a Sean Spencer. Right before the tip of the scepter touches your chest, you start convulsing, thrashing your upper body, which is not pinned to Clint's body. You let your knees buckle. Loki pulls the scepter away, curious. Clint hands the case to Selvig just in time to stop your fall. You rack your brain for any information you can give.

"She's about to deliver a prophecy," Loki explains to Clint and Selvig, both very confused by your convulsing.

"She won't be alive to give it to us if we stay any longer," Selvig says.

"Very well." Loki gestures to those he'd mind controlled to follow him. Clint picks you up and you continue to thrash around, closing your eyes and murmuring. Clint clips something onto the collar of your shirt, a recording device.

"I-infinity...invasion...v-vengeance...iridium," you murmur, just loud enough for Loki to hear. You continue to thrash. If prophesying is gonna stop me from getting mind controlled, this'll be a long prophecy.

You hear Clint telling Hill he needs the trucks. He uses some garbage excuse that energy from the Tesseract screwed with your brain, putting you into a constant state of revelation, and that you need advanced health care.

"Stark...New York...Tesseract...scepter...," you murmur almost nonsensically. You hear Fury's voice. Clint hurriedly tosses you into the back seat of the truck and fires his gun at Hill. You convulse, thrashing against invisible bonds as Clint and Selvig sit up front. "Arc reactor...Phase 2...T-thor...Chi-chitauri?" You feel the truck hurriedly drive away, hear gun shots. "Asgard...mi-missile... initiative..." You feel the whiplash from Loki shooting energy at Fury's chopper. "Romanoff...Banner...monster...anger..."

When the truck is at a safe distance, Clint stops it. You continue your convulsions, terrified of what will happen when you stop. The door next to you opens and Rock of Ages is next to you. You assume it's because he'd be too obvious sitting in the truck bed. "Thanos...Stones...Earth...Rogers..."

"How long is her typical prophecy?" Loki asks.

"No clue, sir, I found out about her just before you arrived," Clint responded.

"Barton...Coulson...Selvig...Loki..."

"I'll wait patiently for you to finish,-"

"Y/n l/n," Selvig, says, filling in the gap in Loki's sentence.

You're about to say something relating to SHIELD when you scream in pain. You continue thrashing, but now out of pain, not your fake prophecy. Everything hurts. Your head is pounding. You bring your hands to your head and hold them there. You scream again in agony. You faintly hear voices talking about you in concern, but it feels distant. Something runs down your face, but you can't tell if it's sweat or tears.

The last time your head hurt like this is two years ago, when you were watching Infinity War after you had found the Apparatus.

You feel two hands lift your head, you don't think they're yours. Must be Loki's. "This should relieve the pain." Suddenly, the pain is gone, but your body still convulses uncontrollably. Tears and sweat cover your face and make your hair sticky. You can't clearly see anything. Your vision darkens, and the convulsions stop as you fall unconscious.
