The two slowly made their way to the house and back to Jane who was now sitting on the steps of the porch. Resting on her lap were the two scrapbooks that she had spent the past four years lovingly creating for Thor and her Son. Getting to her feet she handed Torben his "Papa book " and a warm smile filled her face as she passed a pile of photographs over to Thor. Scanning the images, he could see they were all pictures taken from when they were enjoying spending time together earlier the day. One image was of Torben and Thor in a close embrace, with Thor kissing the top of his son's head. Another was of the three of them sitting together by the stream and pretty much looked like a photo of an everyday family just enjoying spending time together. Another was of one that Torben had somehow managed to take. Although slightly slanted and at an angle, it showed Thor and Jane together in a sweet tender embrace

"seems only right we add these to the books " smiled Jane "I will always keep them updated Thor...I promise you. There will lots more memories added by the time you return"

Sitting on the steps, the three of them went through every single photograph and added them to the books. Each happy memory stored in the book forever and eternally. With the photos added, Torben immediately hugged it to his chest proudly. While Thor looked sadly at the floor before turning to Jane...

"its Time Jane...I have to go"

Trying her hardest not to cry, she took his hand in hers and together they headed across the garden. Torben sighed sadly dragging his feet close by as he followed...hating the fact that he would be losing his father once more

The trio soon arrived at the far end of the garden all ready to say their goodbyes. Turning to Jane, Thor slowly slipped one arm around her waist and pulled her close into a deep hug. Immediately the tearful woman wrapped her arms his neck and ran her hands through the long wavy locks of his hair. She pulled him even closer, desperately hoping that the longer she could hold on to him like this, the longer it would delay him leaving her. All she wanted was to savour the moment and the warmth of being in his arms once more. Moments later, it was Thor who broke the embrace. Stroking her cheek, he leaned forward and kissed with so much passion it left her breathless. When it was over, she pressed her forehead to his and gazed adoringly into those eyes she loved so much. Although he thought it was yucky earlier, Torben watched the kiss with pride at his parents being together like this. A sight he never thought he'd see but had longed constantly for.

Turning to Torben, Thor now dropped to one knee and took the boy in his arms. Just as Jane had done moments earlier, Torben clung hard onto his father's shoulder as his eyes filled with tears. The boy looked up at his mother, desperately trying to hold it together and stop herself bursting into tears

"Remember what I told you Torben" whispered Thor softly, reaching for his sons face "I will be with you always...just look to your heart and that's where I will be" he hugged the teary boy once more "you are an amazing child. Wherever this journey takes me, know that I will be with you always...looking on with great pride... Look after your mother son...she will need you more than ever now...goodbye my boy"

"goodbye Papa..." he grabbed at his father and pulled him in for one final hug "I'll miss you and I'll never take off this band...I promise you"

Kissing the boy on the cheek for the final time, Thor raised his arm and within seconds his trusty hammer was back in his hand. He raised it high above his head and took one last look over at Jane in the distance. She now had an increasingly tearful Torben pressed against leg as they huddled together a few meters away. At that same moment Thor summoned a huge electrical storm ready for his departure. The sky quickly filled with dark clouds and the ground shook at the huge clap of thunder roaring over their heads. The sky lit up with quick bursts of lightning as Jane pulled her son protectively closer. Still not taking his gaze away from his family, Thor mouthed the words "I love you " to Jane, before eventually calling out to Heimdall ready to open the biofrost.

Torben watched on, totally blown away at the beautiful mass of rainbow lights that had engulfed his father. Never had he seen anything like this before in His life and watched in awe at the most beautiful sight in front of him. He could just make out the figure of Thor crouching down ready to leap for the final time. Taking a deep breath, Thor raised his hammer in the air and closed his eyes. He just couldn't bear seeing Torben looking at him so heartbroken. He had kept telling Torben it wouldn't be long till he'd be back but to be honest, he truly didn't know when he would be back on earth and this made this departure even more heart-breaking.

"im sorry Mama...it's just that I can't let Papa leave like this..." said Torben suddenly "im sorry"

Within seconds Torben freed himself from his mothers arms, darted across to the garden and headed for the bright rainbow mass in the distance. Jane screamed desperately calling out for him to stop and come back. Yet the boy didn't listen. He raced over as fast as he could, desperately hoping to catch up with his father one last time

"TORBEN..STOP... WAIT...DONT LEAVE ME TOO..." she pleaded in the distance. Luckily she managed to catch up and reached out at his ankle "TORBEN"

Torben hurled himself into the giant mass of light and was immediately engulfed by the varying colours of the biofrost gateway. The strength of the force pulled him along with Jane inside. Terrified, she managed to take Torben in her arms as they continued their journey upwards into the tunnel of colour. Looking up she saw a hand reaching for hers and through the varying lights she saw that recognisable mass of blonde hair

"HOLD ON TO ME" came a familiar voice "BOTH OF YOU..."

Soon the strange journey was over and the pair landed hard on the floor...she had only travelled by the biofrost once before and it was definitely a lot more bumpier than she remembered

"TORBEN.. Torben are you OK?" quickly sitting up, Jane rubbed the back of her head and reached over her son. Brushing him down "are you hurt Darling?...are you OK?...why did you do that? You could have been killed "

"im sorry Mama...it's just that I wanted to be with papa... I didn't want him to go" the boy looked sadly at the floor "mama why is the floor like a rainbow?" he cried slightly bemused

Jane looked down and could see that they were indeed standing on the biofrost bridge. She gasped in shock at the fact she was back on Asgard. It had been so long since she was here last. Yet the biofrost bridge still looked as beautiful as she remembered

"Mama...where are we?"

"you mean you don't know.." came a voice from directly behind them "I thought your mother had told you all about this place. Torben."

Gripping onto her sons hand, she turned and could see Thor smirking at her. Torben raced over and literally threw himself at his father. The force almost knocked the god of thunder off his feet. Taking him in his arms, he lifted Torben onto his hip as Thor headed back over to Jane. Lovingly he gently pressed his lips to hers and cupped her face

"I can get Heimdall to take you back if you wish " he smiled "he can take you home... Both of you"

Cutting him off she pressed her hand over his mouth. Silencing him instantly

"no Thor...we're already home...I just didn't realise it" she smiled "our home is with you. Let's go.."

Taking her hand In his, Thor led his family back along the bridge and over to the grand golden palace that overlooked Asgard. Torben had obviously seem pictures in his books but those images didn't do it justice. Open mouthed he looked at such wonder looking back him. Neither he or his mother knew just what the future may hold for them here but they were a family now. Nothing can shatter that bond. Not even having the god of thunder as a father. Whatever challenges they may face here on Asgard, they would tackle them together. As Nothing is more stronger than the bond of family...

The end
