Loki woke up the next morning, turning over he saw the empty crib. Panic filled him he ran out of the guest room and straight into Tony's. No one was there. The worry that Thanos made it to earth to find him and child made his heart pounded against his chest. Running to the elevator beads of sweat were forming on his brow. The elevator opened and Pepper emerged from behind its sliding doors. Seeing the small baby in her arms he breathed a sigh of relief. "I don't hear her cry." He said worried his keen ears were failing him. "She wasn't, " Pepper smiled "I took her from your room earlier so you could sleep in." The woman put the baby back in Loki's awaiting arms. His shaky breaths slowly went away when the infant was back curled up agents his chest. He pushed the tears away as he rocked the child.

Pepper and Loki got in the elevator and got out on the main floor. Tony was at the bar already pouring his morning concoction, the man eyed the god of mischief. "Morning sleeping beauty " Tony greeted. "Tony, I'm sorry for last night I... We had nowhere to go." Loki said worried the man of Iron would be angry "So, Thanos. Is that who made you go gaga with power the last time we saw you?" Loki bit his lip and nodded. "I should send you to prison," Tony said blankly. Loki eyes grew wide. "But. Due to too one tiny circumstance, " he eyed the baby. "You're on probation. Now don't go getting excited, I'm watching you." Loki bit his tongue, keeping his sassy remark to himself but then got to the heart of the matter. "Thank you. But you have bigger problems than myself, Thanos is coming to earth, he has two of the infinity stones already and is coming for all of them. so he can kill half of the population of the universe." Loki tried to keep calm as he rambled.

Tony was about to speak when the child started to cry. Loki bounced her and she cried into his nightshirt. "I don't know what to do. I need the help of the Avengers. "I don't know how fast news flys on Asgard, but the Avengers broke up." Loki looked at him with rage. "You think this is a game? THANOS is coming! I don't care about your little falling out! And neither will he when he snaps his fingers and destroys half of every living thing!" Tony shook his head "I can handle this myself, we don't need Steve and the rest of them." Lokis jaw clinched "You're a child" Loki hissed "You prideful piece of trash! We need all the help we can get! And if you won't get them together I will." Loki stormed off back to the guest room. Setting the baby in her crib he placed his head in his hands.

A knock on the door made him jump. Pepper walked in "I'm sorry Loki, Tony is full of pride, he won't bend and apologize to Steve." Pepper sighed looking at the floor. "Even for this." Loki walked over to her "It's not your job to apologize for him." Pepper gave a faint smile "But I'm going to try to help. These are all the Avengers numbers and there last known locations. Go get them together." She handed him a handwritten list, giving him a hug she kissed his cheek "Save us." She whispered in his ear as a tear escaped her eye. The Asgardian pulled out of the hug "How do you know I can do this." He asked. "Because you have something to live for. She needs you." Pepper paused and put her hand on her stomach "Just like mine will need me." She said quietly. Loki smiled "I'll make sure the sun will shine on you and your child." He kissed her hand then started to walk away " So, I'll see you for a baby play date in seven months?" She asked. Loki turned "Looking forward to it." He laughed, flicking his wrist he disappeared.
