He nods as a swill of gin passes your lips.
Looking sideways as the glass is slowly replaced on the glazed counter, a shudder racks the dim bar. You draw a simple Enochian symbol with the dew of the glass. The air glistens and movements seem to slow for several minutes.
(Always loved that spell)
Loki jets out the door as people look around with confused expressions.
A casual swipe across the wet symbol while giving the bartender a smile as he tries to shake his head of the confusion, you leave the bar after your husband. Screams are coming from the street beyond, but your spell slowed the catastrophe enough to give bystanders a chance to run.
Coming to a halt beside Loki in the street, his gaze leads you (...metal..) to the blue sky. Falling rubble (..oh...oh no..) cascades in elephant-sized chunks. Sparks fly (....the space stations..) as it all hits the atmosphere.
Loki has a determined scowl, daggers glowing in his hands. Still staring skyward, he asks, “What is this, darling? And how did you know?”
“He does not want anyone to leave,” you state simply.
Loki pulls eyes from the sky to look at you, eyebrow raised.
“He never wants anyone to leave,” you continue, more to yourself, as you get ready to leap towards the falling debris, hoping to destroy it before there is further destruction.
A gentle grip on your arm makes you pause.
“Be careful,” he says softly. He kisses your hand and then you are throwing yourself into the air, golden wings in a mirage at your back.
AN: This was extremely fun to write. I have always been intimidated by writing action/hero-esque stories, but this just vomited itself onto the screen. Enjoy! :)
