PREVIOUSLY:

The blond struggled to hold back a blush at Loki's words and groaned slightly. "Now I really don't want to go home..." he pouted and ran a hand through his hair.

Loki chuckled, he would have giggled, but he was a prince, princes do not giggle, and led Thor back into the tower. "Come on. Time to say good bye to everyone." he stated and led the way to the observation room, where he knew at least Tony would be, that or Bruce. He blinked when he saw the whole gang there and tilted his head to the side, making himself look like a cute kitten as he did. "What's going on?" he asked, making the group jump.


Steve sighed softly as he calmed down from the small scare Loki had given them all when the two had entered and looked at the two men as they came in, one in Asguardian clothes and the other in their style. "Just wanting to say good bye to Thor before he left." he stated, telling a half truth, they had been really arguing who was going to tell Loki he was going to be stuck in the tower for the time being.

The god of lies narrowed his eyes, knowing something was off with that but he just shrugged and accepted it. "I am sorry for the slight breakdown..." he said as he stood awkwardly next to Thor.

Bruce smiled and walked up to the two of them before patting Loki on the shoulder in a show of support. "I understand Loki. We all do. There is nothing wrong with a break down every now and then." he whispered into the man's ear.

Loki blushed and stared down at his feet as everyone hugged Thor good bye. "You better visit Thor." he heard Natasha threaten. He chuckled and went to stand in a corner, watching them. He didn't notice Clint move next to him until there was a hand on his shoulder. Loki jumped a little and couldn't suppress a small flinch when he felt the hand touch him.

Clint gave a small frown before letting Loki go with a small sigh. "It will all be okay Loki. You might be stuck in the tower for a while, But everything will be okay." He froze as he heard Director Fury's voice over the com that linked the two buildings.

"Steve, There is an issue down town." Fury's voice said, unaware of what was going on, not able to see into the room.

Said man sighed and ran a hand over his face. "Alright Director. What's the situation?" he asked as he made sure the vid link had been disabled, not wanting the man to know Loki was back.

Fury's voice held a sigh before words were spoken. "You won't believe it but there is a giant snake thing attacking down town Manhattan."

Loki blinked and groaned out slightly, one of his children were attacking and probably looking for him. He gave Thor a knowing look before speaking. "How many do you need Director? I know the snake. It normally is a calm creature."

Fury froze on the other end of the com link and everyone in the room groaned. 'Damn... Now Fury knows Loki is back and will try to kill him or have someone else do it..' everyone seemed to think.

Fury sneered as he spoke. "Since you know this monster so well you can fight it on your own Loki. Welcome back by the way. When you can come by the..." he was interrupted by Tony, who spoke in a cold voice. "Loki will not be going to the office. ever. He quits. Oh, and Clint, go pack your shit. You are moving into the tower permanently."

Clint blinked in surprise and nodded before leaving to do just that. "Natasha, Bruce, go with him. If he doesn't want you to help him pack, then be there to protect him." he paused and then spoke again. "JARVIS, disable any and all links to HQ, we are our own team now. Good bye Fury. May we never meet in battle or ever." Tony cut the link and looked at the group.

Loki watched what was going on, trembling slightly. He left after Clint but before Natasha and Bruce. He wore his Asguardian armor and held onto a knife in his hand. He went to where his child was, knowing no one knew he had left. He sighed and stared up at his youngest. "Jormun! Calm yourself!" He called out to the snake, holding out his arms. He had changed his voice and his armor slightly, that way people wouldn't know who he was. He knew the snake would know, for a child always knows it's parent(s), no matter how long they have been apart.


Back in the tower Tony had turned on the news and froze when he saw Loki. He groaned out and face palmed. "The idiot... We tell him to stay and he goes off to fight a giant snake..." he grumbled and blinked as he heard hissing voices from the god of lies and the snake.

Steve came in and gaped at the t.v. "When'd he leave the tower?" he asked, looking back into the hall for Thor. He sighed in relief when he didn't spot him. The Captain looked toward Tony and the screen before scrunching his brow in thought. "What in the blazes is that hissing?" he asked.

Thor walked in after Steve's question and groaned out slightly. "That hissing would be Loki and his son talking." he informed the group, looking slightly miffed that his brother and, dare he hope, lover had not stayed still like he had been told. "I will go get him." with that the blond left the room and then the tower.

The two left in the room turned their attention back to the t.v. as they heard a crack of thunder and a flash of lightning where Loki and the snake were. They saw the man on the screen flinch and gulp.


"Laufeyson! I thought we told you to stay in the tower!" Thor shouted as he stomped toward the slightly shaking male. The snake now known as Jormungandr shrank down to a portable size and launched at the blond. "NO HURT MAMA!" Jormun hissed at Thor who blinked and backed away from the snake. He frowned as he registered he understood the thing that was now pocket size.

Loki sighed and grabbed the green snake before it could strike the blond. "Bad Jormun! No hurting daddy!" he scolded, unaware that Thor was now standing frozen.

The blond god glared at his brother and held out his hand to the two of them. "Come now. We are going back to the tower." he leveled the snake that wrapped around Loki's neck like a band, another glare. "You and I will also be talking about this, "Daddy" thing when we get there too."

Loki gulped and took hold of Thor's hand, ignoring the gathering crowed now that the danger was gone. The two vanished back to Stark tower and landed on the roof.


This seemed like a good spot to stop. I just can't stop writing this fic.
