Chapter 9

Lily's POV

Loki leans in and kisses me but before I can do anything, Loki is knocked to the ground.

Peter: Don't touch her.

Loki: Well I should have expected that.

Strange: Loki, don't test me. Touch her again, I dare you.

Loki: Ok ok ok.

Lily: Now....if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get changed.

I walk to my room and I start putting on some clothes.

Nat: Knock knock?

Lily: Come in Nat.

Nat: Hey.....you ok?

Lily: Well I might be pregnant and I was kissed by the God of Mischief so yes I'm doing perfectly fine.

Nat: Everything's going to be ok, I'll make sure of it. Tony wanted to know what you wanted to do with Loki.

Lily: What do you mean?

Nat: Well do you want to lock him up, throw him out, you choose. You're the one who he kissed after all.

Lily: Oh. Leave him be. I think he got the idea this time.

Nat: Ok then. Ready to come out? Just a reminder but you still have school.

Lily: SHOOT!

I rush out and I look at Tony.

Lily: I forgot about school

Tony: Oh it's fine. I talked to the principal about it. You're fine.

Peter: Lily....why are you wearing my shirt...and nothing else?

Lily: Why not. You're taller than me anyways so its big on me. Boom, dress shirt.

Peter: Y-you're gonna go to school like that??

Lily: Yea why not.

Cap: Oh god. Oh also, Bucky said he would come this afternoon.

Tony: Oh good. I'm gonna take the kids to school. See ya.

Tony drives us to school and we walk in.

Ned: Hey guys! How was your weekend?

Peter: Definitely crazy.

Ned: Uhhhh is that Peter's shirt?

Lily: Oh, yea.

Ned: Ummmm what happened?

Peter: Nothing! Nothing!

Ned: Mhm alright. For Peter's sake, I'll leave it at that.

MJ: Hey.

Lily: Oh who's....

Peter: Oh umm Lily, this is MJ. MJ, this is Lily.

MJ: Cool. Hi.

Ned: Welp, we gotta get to class.

When we arrive at the gym, we hear a group of students staring at the TV and talking

Ned: Yo guys what's going on?

Flash: What's going on? The Avengers are fighting again that's what.

Lily: Peter, they never told us they had a mission.

MJ: Hey isn't that your dad?

I look at the screen and see my dad, cap, and Tony fighting a weird creature. It looked like a skeleton of some sort. But then we see all three of them get knocked back with some forcefield.

Lily: Peter, we gotta go.

Peter: Go?! We don't even know where that is!

Lily: We can go back to the compound, find it, and head off.

Flash: Yea! Let's see these guys in action!

Lily: Suit up.

We head back to the compound.

Lily: Jarvis?

Jarvis: Yes Miss?

Lily: Tell me where the other Avengers are.

Jarvis: They seem to be at the other side of New York at a cemetery.

Lily: Send me coordinates.

I suit up and we head out. Once we got there, the whole place was a mess. Most of the Avengers were down and Wanda, Banner, and Barton were the only ones standing.

Lily: So, did we come for a funeral that went wrong?

They all turn to us.

Tony: Oh.....my god....

Strange: You aren't supposed to be here.

Lily: Well you made quite the front page on the news and coincidentally, the school loves watching the news. Besides, you were failing at fighting too. Peter, help Mr Barton over there. I'm going with Wanda. And when the rest of you are done taking a nap, feel free to join us.

I fly over to Wanda and we both start fighting. After taking down a few, she chuckles.

Lily: What? Something on my face?

Wanda: You've improved a lot.

Lily: Why thank you.

Dad flies over to us.

Strange: Again, you aren't supposed to be here.

Lily: Well it's your fault you didn't tell us.

Strange: That makes no sense at all.

Lily: And that sounds like a you-problem.

Strange: Either way, we're gonna talk about this at home later.

Lily: Only if we make it out alive!

I go over to Nat and Tony, tired of listening to dad.

Nat: Well we sure needed the back up.

Lily: At least someone is grateful.

After a long time of fighting, no more bots are up and we all come together again.

Lily: What were we here for?

Thor: That.

When we look towards where he was pointing, we see Loki's scepter in the middle of the cemetery.

Lily: So....Loki died?

Thor grabs the scepter.

Thor: Those creatures were under the control of Hela.....my sister.

Nat: Apparently, she wants to take the throne in Asgard. She says she's the rightful heir to the throne being the oldest.

Thor: Which would be true but Odin had banished her as her hunger for war grew bigger.

Tony: But now that Odin has died, she's free.

Hela: And I'm never going back.

She appears from around the corner of a statue.

Hela: One of you have great power and you don't even know it. I could help you and together, we could be one of the most powerful beings in the universe.

Lily: You're talking about me, aren't you?

Hela: The sorcerer supreme is a very powerful being but you're stronger than Vision, him, and the Scarlet Witch combined.

Lily: And you think I'm going to work with you?

Hela: It's a choice.

Lily: Fun fact. Thanos wants my power too. So you work with him?

Hela: I don't work with or under aybody! He's ignorant and destined to fail. It's one reason I keep no contact with him.

Lily: Either way, what if I refuse to work with you?

Hela: Well it's your loss then. Either work with me and keep your power or get killed and get your power sucked from our cold, dead corpse. I can make you powerful. I can bring you to greatness.

Lily: What if I don't want that?

Hela: Perhaps you don't want that but I do know what you want. You want to be recognized.

Lily: W-what?

Hela: Locked away all your life, hidden from society.....

Strange: Don't listen to her.

Hela: Why would your father keep you locked away? Because he's ashamed?

Tony: Lily....snap out of it.

Thoughts run through my head. Yea, why did he keep me locked away. He was scared.....embarrassed to have a daughter like me. He only brought me out when he needed me. He doesn't love me, he needed my power.

Hela: I know how you feel darling. My father used me for war but when the time came, he just locked me up again, hid me from the light. Even after I brought him to victory, he was ashamed.

Peter: That's not true.

Hela: They don't love you. They need you for your power. You think they saved you from Thanos because they love you? They couldn't bear losing the power they have.

Nat: We care about you a lot, Lily. Don't listen to her.

Lily: You're right Hela. You do know a lot about me.

Wanda: Lily no.

Lily: But I know something about you too. You lied to me. You wouldn't have known that Thanos had me for sometime if you didn't work with him.

Hela: I-well that was....

Lily: You can't take me away from my family, Hela. You can try all you want. But you'll never get the chance again.
