The Favour

chapter 21

"Did you find her? " Steve asked as Tony flew by.

"Yeah I did, I was still searching for her as a joke. " Tony snapped back.

"Well it's your building stark, where is she? " Natasha asked as she walked over to them.

"Jarvis? Did you find her? "

"Yes sir."

"Please take your time.we clearly are in no hurry. " Tony replied

"She is at the door."

"The.. what? Why? " Natasha asks.

"She wants to surrender." Jarvis replied.

"Oh."Natasha said, "invite her in."

"Why did you surrender? " Steve asks.

"I felt guilty for Beth's death."she replied. Steve winced at the mention of Beth.

"Why were you working with the frost giants? What was the deal? "

"They had said that they would help find Beth if we give them Loki. "

"And Beth killed them.' Steve replied.

"Yes. She pulled out the kings heart. We immediately brought her back."

"Why did you kill her? "

"We had found a way to extract the power from her DNA . We didn't need her anymore and.. "

"And..? "

"We wanted to hurt the avengers by killing one of their own. " she stuttered

"Where is the HYDRA headquarter? " Natasha asked.

"I dont know but there is a large base in Atlanta. " she replied. The room was, brightly lit, with steel walls and a mirror on one side. On the other side of the mirror Loki stood glaring at the woman. He hated her from every fiber of his being.

"Don't do it reindeer games." Tony said as he walked over, "don't kill her."

"Why not? Beth hated her. She was instrumental in her.. death." He said stuttering at the word death.

"Beth wouldn't want her dead. She would bash her up probably. But not kill her. Here, you haven't eaten." He said and offered Loki some pizza. Loki stared at it.

"She loved this. She force me to eat it once." He whispered.

Tony kept quiet and Loki took the slice. He hadn't eaten in days.

"She knows something" Natasha remarked as she and Steve came out of the interrogation room.

"I can get it out. " Loki says as he lifts his scepter.

"No." A voice came from behind them.

They turned to find fury standing at the doorway.

"When did you come? " Tony asked.

"Just now."

"Why musnt I use the scepter? " loki asks

"Cant use it from jail can you?" Fury replied.

"Youre locking me up? " loki asked angrily.

"Yeah. Beth isn't here and neither is Thor."

"I'll vouch for him." Natasha speaks up.

"You'll vouch for him? " fury asks with an air of disbelief.

She looks at Loki and nods, " yeah."
