Prisoners

Natasha sits at her dining room table. The phone lays in front of her, silent, unmoving, quiet. "Come on. Call me damn it. Call me Thor. I need your help."

She sits and stares. She sighs. Her phone vibrates and she grabs it quickly. Unfortunately, it's Tony sending a text.

"Tony -> Natasha:

Thor called you yet? He's not in America. Cap and I have narrowed that much down."

Natasha sighs and texts Tony back.

"Natasha -> Tony:

Keep searching. Find him."

Natasha tosses her phone to the side and looks at the floor, thinking of where would Loki hide. But her thinking is interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing. She reaches for it and answers it. "Hello?"

"Greetings Natasha" says the masculine Asgardian Thor on the other line.

"Thor! Thank god! Loki has kidnapped Clint! He's not dead! He's alive! Please... I need your help."

The line goes quiet for a bit. Natasha asks to check and see if Thor is on the line.

"I'm here Natasha... I... I can't fabricate words to describe my feelings right now."

"I know this is a lot to comprehend Thor, but I need your help."

"I shall head to Asgard and speak to Odin at once and find your Barton. I'll call you once I've returned."

"Thanks Thor. Please return soon."

Thor hangs up and kisses Jane.

"I shall return my love."

Jane nods as he takes off.

"He's so fucking cool" says Darcy.

Jane just sighs.

Loki mediates in quietly in his room. His evil smirk can be felt all over the building. He relaxes, enjoying the fruits of his victory over Clint. Clint is his slave. His will shattered. There was no escape for Clint. And Loki loved every second of having his Slave.

However, his relaxation is disturbed. Loki looks out the window and sees faintly in the distance the Bifrost opening for the mighty Thor.

"That irritable loath! He's going to run to daddy... Too bad he's... Indisposed... Looks like I need to make a visit to the land of liars..."

Loki grabs his Asgardian Flight Ship and heads for his secret portals back to Asgard.

"FATHER!!!"

Thor quickly moves into the throne room. "Odin" sits at his throne.

"Thor my son. Back from Midgard at last. How are you my son?"

"Enough Father," Thor exclaimed. "Loki perished before my eyes, but now I've received word that he's alive and holding one of my Midgardian friends captive! He must be found at once!"

"Relax," says Odin. "I'll have Hiemdall search for Loki and find your friend. Please, calm down. I've missed my son."

Thor relaxes and smiles. "Thank you father."

Natasha sighs after another day has failed to bring any findings, she crawls into bed and plugs her phone into the charger for the night.

"We're coming Clint... I promise... We'll find you..."

She sighs and drifts to sleep.

In the early morning hours, Natasha's phone rings. She stumbles out of bed, exhausted and answers it.

"Hello," she asks rather tired and annoyed.

"Na---Natasha...?"

Her eyes go wide, knowing the tired, broken voice on the other line.

"Clint?"

"Help... Me..." He sobs into the phone. "Help... Me..."

Natasha immediately begins tracking it. "Hang on Clint. Just keep talking to me. Where are you?"

"I don't know... Loki he's... He's..."

The sound of a struggle takes over the phone. Clint screams as the line goes dead.

"CLINT!?!?!?"

She checks the signal. He's located somewhere in The United Kingdom. 

"DAMN IT!!! It's at least a start."

She texts the others of the phone conversation and the location.

Tony texts back.

"Tony -> Natasha:

Sending the suits now to track for him or any possible hole Loki may be hiding him in. We'll find him."

Clint yells in pain as Loki violently beats him with a pipe.

"I SAID STAY BITCH!!! NOW YOURE GOING TO PAY!!!"

He grabs Clint by the hair and drags him to the cells. He throws him in and locks the cell door. He later returns with a cell phone.

"Hello... I need my scepter back... I have a problem child that needs punishing... Good... Hail Hydra..."

He hangs up.

Loki grabs Clint and chains him up.

"You're going to suffer now Barton... You think they'll find you now? They won't! And you're going to be suffering for a while... I assure you that."

Loki leaves, locking the cell and grabbing his flyer and racing back to Asgard.
