Loki strutted down to the library. He was nervous and frightened by what he had seen but he wasn't going to let anyone else know that.

The past month had gone by relatively quickly, especially after he was released from his confinement. Frigga and Thor convinced Odin to take the muzzle off after a few weeks and gods it felt good to breathe out of one's mouth again.

Frigga hadn't broached the topic of the void again yet, but Loki had a feeling that was going to end today. He entered the library and rushed to where he saw his mother and brother looking at a book titled Battles of The Great Wars.

He rushed into his mother's arms,making her drop the book into Thor's hands. His next words came out soft and hurried.

"He's coming mum. He's coming. Don't let him take me. Please don't let him take me."

-------------------------------------------------------

Loki paced back and forth across the garden pathway nervously as his mother and brother stood off to the side waiting for him to explain.

"It was too real not to be a vision."

"Brother, the cuffs block your magic. That's impossible."

"Exactly! I am vulnerable to magical attacks now since my barriers aren't up. I don't have to have my own magic to have someone else implant something in my mind. Like I said it was too real to be anything else."

"Pet."

Loki looked up and found himself kneeling in front of the stone throne. The titan stared down at him along with his children. Loki sneered at them, but he was terrified.

"You have disappointed me."

Loki gulped.

"You thought you could escape me? Now, you know I have no qualms with killing you, but what use would that be. I have a job for you."

Loki blinked. Then he stood and whispered.

"Never. Again."

"Really? As you know Ebony can be... persuasive." He grinned at Loki's panicked expression. "So here is my request. You hand over the tesseract and yourself, and no one else gets hurt. You don't...."

He climbed down off the throne and stood in front of the mischief god.

"I will kill everyone you love in front of you and burn your home to the ground. And then we will still take you and the tesseract."

"Neither."

"You have three days until you have to decide."

Thanos grabbed Loki by the neck and crushed his windpipe.

Loki recounted his dream to them and they cringed.

"So the Titan is real then?"

Loki nodded at his mother.

Frigga grabbed Loki's wrist gently as well as Thor's. She pulled them along the corridor.

"We are speaking with your father."
