New York, 9:37 am.

There were a couple of major benefits to staying in expensive hotels and one of the first ones that Loki often took advantage of was access to the hotel's facilities. Today he was making use of the gym, in particular the treadmill. He had never admitted it to anyone but sometimes he found physical activity to be rather calming. Running on a treadmill didn't require much in the way of active thought (beyond making sure he didn't break the thing) and after an hour or so of non stop motion he could finally enter what he privately called the 'Thor state of mind'- calm, quiet and devoid of anything even remotely resembling a thought. 

After a minute or two of being free of the burden of an intelligent mind, Loki grudgingly started to think about the problems and mysteries that had arisen recently in order of what he deemed the most important. 

The Enchantress... 

Her continued existence was a worrying one as was the mystery of [i]how[/i] she was still alive. There were at least six major different possibilities he was considering at the moment:

1. She survived Ragnarok and had been hiding out somewhere until recently.
2. She had been imprisoned in the Netherworld and had recently escaped from it much like he had himself.
3. She had been imprisoned in the Netherworld and had bartered some kind of pact with powers and beings far beyond the comprehension of a sane mortal human in order to secure her release.
4. She had died at Ragnarok but had made some kind of deal with his daughter Hel to escape from death in a similar manner that he had once (Though she would be hard pressed to offer her something better then Balder).
5. She had died but was brought back to life by person's currently unknown for reasons currently unknown. 
6. The Enchantress was dead and whatever was running around wearing her face was merely pretending to be her for its own reasons.

The idea of what to do about her came to his mind and fairly quickly came to a conclusion; She needed to die. You couldn't imprison someone like the Enchantress for long and if she hadn't come to the conclusion that she needed to reform her ways after bringing about Ragnarok itself then it quite simply wasn't going to happen; At least not in a way that he was willing to trust as anything more then a ploy to betray those around her for her own ends. The only person she [i]might[/i] have been willing to admit changing her ways for was Thor and until proven otherwise Loki was damn certain that he was dead. 

Speaking of Thor...

Before Loki could delve into the mystery of the female 'Thor', his attention was brought to one of the TV's that was on so that those using the equipment in the gym had something to watch while they worked out. It was a news report of the female 'Thor' in question and the rampage that she had gone on the night before. Her choice of targets were rather interesting, but the last location she was seen at caused Loki to stop jogging. 

If she had appeared at Stark Towers but left without breaking in (A change of pace considering her activities earlier that night) then it meant that what she was looking for wasn't there... Which most likely meant that she was looking for Stark himself. Sighing to himself, he stepped off the treadmill and started walking out of the gym, already planning to swing by Stark Tower's and keeping an eye on the place for [i]when[/i] this female Thor was bound to show. Might as well deal with one of his problems while the opportunity presented itself.
