A great battle
Thor groaned, blood soaking his face and down to his clothes. He wildly swung, unable to see anything. He hit the wall with a thud, his golden arm being twisted. He swung again, golden hand frozen in place. Thor swung again, feeling a pull at his shoulder. He could hear something flopping around. The clicking of Loki’s toes on the ice. He swung again blindly
The Jotun stopped just out of reach, holding the trophy limb for inspection, only before tossing it aside and staring down at Thor. His blood was seething… surging, burning with acid in his veins, running hotly down his face until it froze enough to fall as red crystals.
A moment… just a moment of clarity, of inner peace. Yes this is what he’d wanted. How beautiful this harmony was, to stand at the feet of the fallen and watch the final throes of life. So stubborn and willful.
The Deceiver’s jaw disconnected, spurs of his vertebrae and shoulders bristling up straight in animalistic desire. The blackness of his lips spread further, splitting the flesh into a glasglow’s smile filled with teeth as thin and hallow as hypodermic needles. That fire in his body was building… that wonderful rose in his heart blooming finally in a crescendo of dirge bells. This wasn’t about his twin, nor was it about Thor or himself.
This was about gluttony.
The raven caught the flailing warrior by the wrist and leaned down, opening his mouth wider and wider into a fathomless black hole of all-consuming space, forked tongue pressed down and back out of the way of his bite. Through flesh and bone those teeth crunched, popping joint and ligament to grind down into grey brain matter. He bit and he twisted and he slashed his claws in to part golden hair and slap away his hand on occasion…. devouring him from the top down. Loki could feel the Odinson’s strength in his own body… could feel his soul try to escape, only to be sawed down into bite sized chunks and take residence in his stomach, to be processed and absorbed and made part of himself. Awful basilisk… terrible Devil… he gave him no last words and heard no last words. Everything needed to be said had been said.
This is how your world ends, Thor… as they say of Earth… this is how your world ends…
Not with a Scream but with a….. swallow.
