"Do you think it's a really good idea to go back to Earth?" Loki asked Thor, looking out of the spaceship window.
"Of course. People of Earth love me. I'm quite popular there," Thor assured his brother.
Loki looked at Thor for a second, then opened his mouth again.
"Let me rephrase that. Do you think it's a good idea to bring me back to Earth?"
At this question, Thor hesitated for a moment. He knew what the Earth thought of Loki—it has been 5 years since the New York invasion and people definitely did not forget what Loki did to the city.
But he couldn't say just no to Loki. That would be too cruel. Thor knew Loki was a changed man—at least for now. He wasn't the man who attacked New York anymore. He was… his brother.
"Probably not to be honest," Thor answered. "But I wouldn't worry, Brother. I think everything is gonna be just fine."
.
"…Where is the Tesseract?" Thanos asked in a low voice.
Both Thor and Loki did not answer. They knew where it was, of course, but they weren't about to give it up to this creature. Not without a fight.
"We don't have it," Thor said. "It was destroyed on the Asgard."
Just as he said it, Thanos hit Thor hard, sending him flying.
"Brother!" Loki cried out.
"…The Tesseract. Or, your brother's dead," Thanos said, directly looking at Loki.
Loki just stands there, looking down. There is loud screaming coming from his behind—Thor is getting tortured by Thanos' children.
"Ahhhhhh!"
Loki closes his eyes. He can't bear it anymore.
"All right, stop!"
Loki puts his left hand out, and soon, the Tesseract appears. He hands it to Thanos, whom takes it and transforms it into the blue stone.
"I assure you, Brother. The sun will shine on us again," Loki said.
"I wouldn't be so sure about that, Asgardian," Thanos said.
"Well, for one thing, I'm not Asgardian. And for another….We have a Hulk."
Before Thanos could react, Hulk slammed into Thanos, trying to hold him off. He was soon thrown across the ship by Thanos.
"You are too naïve," Thanos said. "You thought that green creature could defeat me?"
"No," Loki replied.
He was already where Hulk was, along with Thor.
"…But it was just enough for this."
Loki smirked, as he held another Tesseract in his hands. Shocked, Thanos looked at his infinity gauntlet, and saw that his blue stone was missing.
At that moment, Hemidall turned the Bifrost sword. Soon, a portal formed and the three of them were gone from the ship.
"…You shouldn't have done that!" Thanos said with rage.
Thanos stabbed Heimdall, and his eyes grew wide for a moment. His eyes were soon closed, but there was a smile on his lips.
