Happy Thanksgiving! I'll have an AN at the bottom that I need you guys to read, so without further ado.

Read, Review, and Enjoy!

Chapter Eleven

Lightening struck in the middle of the square. I had turned my head away from the bright light, but from what I could see Thor was in the middle of it.

I felt my heart lurch in excitement.

Could my friend still be alive?

"Oh my god," Jane said as we all stood entranced by the show that was going on.

I looked up and saw that the destroyer had turned back around. Thor capturing its attention again. It was readying itself to fire but Mjolnir came out of nowhere and hit it before it could aim towards Thor. Mjolnir came flying back to its owner and I heard Jane laugh. Because standing in front of us was Thor, and I don't mean the Thor that I had spent the last couple of days with. I mean the God of Thunder, Thor. He was decked out in his armor, healed of any of his injuries and had a giant freaking red cape.

I repeat, a giant freaking red cape.

I looked over at the warriors three and Sif who all seemed ecstatic over their friend coming back.

I felt the wind pick up so I turned back to where Thor was; only to find him gone.

I looked up and saw him disappear into what I would call a twister.

"Does he always do this?" I yelled over the wind to his companions.

I felt Fandrel grab my hand and we all started running back towards Jane's lab. We all stopped right outside of the building and turned to watch Thor beat the destroyer.

"You are in so much trouble." I heard Clint mumble to me as he appeared by my side.

"Is the kid ok?" I asked concerned.

Clint shot me his best 'bitch please' look. "Yes, the kid's safe," Clint said.

"I just wanted to make sure, Big Bird," I said. "I trust you."

Clint ruffled my hair. "That's what I thought."

I gave him a ghost of a smile as we heard another clang of Mjolnir meeting the metal of the Destroyer. The dust from the twister started to fall away as cars fell back to the ground. Thor, in all of his Asgardian glory, strutted out of the debris, completely unharmed.

"Is this how you normally look?" Jane asked him.

I looked the God over once again with a smile.

"Yes," Thor replied.

"It's a good look," Jane replied with a smile.

I laughed. "I like the cape," I said as I walked up to him.

"Thank you," he replied.

I rolled my eyes as I gave him a quick hug. "I'm glad you're still alive," I mumbled. Thor returned the hug and then we broke apart. And then I lightly punched him in the shoulder. "That's for dying in the first place," I said.

Thor chuckled and I could hear the warriors three behind me laughing. "We must go to the Bifrost site. I would have a word with my brother."

I scoffed. "Get in line," I mumbled under my breath.

"Excuse me," I heard a voice say from behind us.

We turned around and saw Phil and Clint together with a bunch of other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.

"Donald, I don't think you've been completely honest with me," Phil said.

I couldn't help but smile at Phil, always with the manners.

"Know this, son of Coul." Thor began. "You and I, we fight for the same cause, the protection of this world. From this day forward you can count me as your ally, if, you return the items you have taken from Jane."

"Stolen," Jane and I comment at the same time.

"Borrowed." Phil corrected as he shot me his 'you're not helping' face, I gave him a toothy grin. I'd like to think that he gives that to all of us Starks. "Of course you can have your equipment back. You're gonna need it to continue your research."Thor smiled and looked back down at Jane. "Would you like to see the bridge we spoke of?" he asked.

"Uh, sure," she said after shooting me a glance.

Thor grabbed her around the waist and the two of them took off.

"Wait, we need to debrief you!" Phil yelled as the couple flew off.

"No fair," I pouted. "I want to fly."

"Get in the car, Tweety." Clint said

I rolled my eyes and hopped into the car he was driving, Darcy slipped into the backseat and we all took off towards where the Bifrost had dropped the Asgardians off.

We pulled up and I looked around the wreckage of cars at the destruction the Destroyer left.

"Heimdall, open the Bifrost!" Thor yelled.

We all climbed out of the car and I looked up, hopeful to see the rainbow bridge he had spoken about.

"Heimdall?" Thor asked in confusion. "Heimdall!"

"Is something suppose to happen?" I asked turning to the warriors.

Hogun turned to look at me and then turned back to Thor.

"He doesn't answer." Thor said as he saw us and made his way over.

"Then we are stranded." Hogun said.

"Heimdal! If you can hear me, we need you now!" Thor yelled once again.

"I don't understand," I began looking at them. "Why wouldn't Heimdall answer?"

"It must be Loki," Fandral said. "He's preventing Heimdall from answering."

I winced as I felt another pang of longing and self-loathing rush through me at his name. I noticed Sif giving me a weird look but I brushed her off. I glanced at Jane who was standing next to us. "Is this making any sense to you?" I asked.

"No," Jane replied as Thor let another "Heimdall" loose.

"There it is." Vollegstagg said with a smile, I turned my head to him and followed his gaze.

What looked like another twister was headed back down, with a rainbow in the middle.

Sif and the warriors three gathered around the weird markings in the dirt, I hoped that Phil managed to get a picture of it; I wanted to study it once this whole 'Asgardians from another planet' was over.

Jane walked over to Thor, who grabbed her arm and pulled her closer to him. I smiled at the pair of them, glad that they had finally had a moment together.

I wanted to severely eavesdrop on them but wanted to give them their space; I took a couple steps out of the way.

I couldn't help but swoon a little at how Thor picked up Jane's hand and kissed the back of it. I mean come on! He's a prince and that was so chivalrous.

But I did chuckle at little as Jane launched herself at him. That kiss was pretty epic.

Thor made his way over to Sif and the others and I waved at them as they all disappeared; leaving only dust in their place.

I sighed as the dust settled, another dangerous mission finished. I glanced over towards Phil and Clint; was this how they always felt? Drained and exhausted?

I walked over to the two of them and gave them a tired smile.

"You doing ok, Tweety?" Clint asked me.

I gave a tired nod. "I'm tired, ready to go home." I said. "And get out of this skirt." I commented. The poor skirt was dirty and a little torn around the edge.

"Well you did good," Clint said. "I'm proud."

I scoffed. "All I did was evac a city, if that's all you need me to do, then I'll evacuate any and every city you need."

"Let's go home." Clint said. I nodded and the two of us turned around and started to walk away.

"Wait!" I cried out before turning back towards Phil.

"Phil!" I cried.

Phil turned around and gave me a smile. "Ms. Stark," he said, "what can I help you with?"

I returned the smile. "You owe me fifty bucks," I said.

Phil sighed and pulled out his wallet. "That I do." He said as he handed me a couple of bills.

"Thank you," I sang as I tucked the bills into my shirt. "Oh and Phil? You can call me Clara."

I could hear Phil chuckle behind me as I turned around to face the New Mexican crew.

"So," I began looking at Dr. S. "I have a feeling that this isn't what you had in mind when you asked me to come."

Dr. Selvig chuckled. "Not in the slightest."

I couldn't help the grin that came to my face as I turned towards Darcy. "I'm gonna miss you," I said as I walked towards her. She gave me a similar grin and we hugged.

"You're the only one that understands how confused I am that Thor liked pop tarts," Darcy exclaimed.

We broke the hug and I typed my number into her phone. "Call me," I told her as I handed her the phone back.

"Count on it." Darcy said as she slipped her phone into her back pocket.

I turned towards Jane. "It's his family," I told her, "it might take a little longer than he thought, but keep hope. He cares for you."

Jane nodded her head and then looked back up at the sky. "I'm not crazy?" she added. "I should wait for him?"

"Don't put your life on pause," I warned. "Girl, you are brilliant. But no, you're not crazy."

Jane smiled and we shared a quick hug before I turned to head back towards Clint, who already had my bag with him.

"How?" I asked looking between my bag and Clint. "Never mind." I hastily added, this was just another thing I was going to chalk up to him being a spy again.

He smiled and I started to walk with him, I stumbled and Clint quick as ever caught me. "You ok?" he asked.

I shook my head and pressed the back of my hand to my face. "Just a little dizzy." I mumbled. Clint kept his arm around me as I stumbled once again.

"Tweety," he said again his, concern clear in his tone.

I shook off his concern. "I didn't sleep last night, plus no food today," I said as I regained my balance. "Not to mention the whole adrenaline rush we just had."

Clint wasn't taking my blow off but he remained quiet.

"Are we flying back to New York or driving?" he asked.

"Can we fly?" I asked

"Of course we can." Clint said.

We boarded what looked like a quinjet and Clint walked to the pilot's chair. "I gotta fly one of these," I said as I slipped into one of the passenger chairs.

"Maybe," Clint said.

"Definitely." I said. I had lied to Clint, I had both a solid night's sleep and breakfast but I was still feeling dizzy, and was having a hard time getting an actual deep breath. I didn't know what was going on, but I had a feeling they were all connected. I leaned my head to the side of the seat, and found myself getting super sleepy. "We're over the Midwest," was the last thing that I heard Clint saying before I fell asleep.

I woke up in my bed, comfy and confused. I lifted my head from my pillow and stared around the room. Had I dreamt all of it? Was everything that happened in New Mexico just a dream?

I noticed Max chilling at the end of my bed, I smiled at him and he woofed in hello.

I noticed a note on the bedside table.

Tweety,

You were still asleep and I know how hard it's been for you to fall asleep. So I brought you back to the apartment. I'll be there soon, had some things I needed to take care of before we relax for a couple of days. There is a gift on the kitchen counter, take it, use it, and be safe.

I smiled at Clint's thoughtfulness and slipped out of bed. I picked up my phone and sent a text to my dad letting him know that I was home and was going to change, and then head out to Malibu to talk to him.

Because it was time to figure this stuff with my dad out; for the first time we were on the same page and I was hopeful about what was going to happen.

I slipped out of the shower and blew my hair dry. I stared at it in the mirror. It wasn't straight but it wasn't quite wavy either. I shrugged my shoulders and proceeded to swipe a few coats of mascara onto my lashes.

I tugged on a pair of skinny jeans and a long sleeve maroon shirt with a black v-vest over it. I put on a pair of chunky ankle boots. Dropped a quick note to Clint about how thankful I was to him for everything and where I was going. Grabbed my purse and headed back out of the apartment with a quick bye to Max.

I stopped and turned back around; I should at least see what Clint wanted me to have. There was a medium size box sitting on the counter. I felt myself smile as I slid the top of the box off.

"You have got to be kidding me," I said as I pulled out the purple handheld taser.

Of course Clint got me a taser. He had been talking about it since I moved in. I slipped it into my vest pocket and headed back outside to get to my car.

I was texting Corey on my phone to see if he could have the jet ready when I got to the airfield. I had opened my driver door and thrown my purse in, the car in front of me had moved so I did an imaginary fist pump in the air, when I heard someone behind me.

"Well look who it is," Justin Hammer said.

I sighed and shut the door to my baby before turning back around to face him. "Justin, to what do I owe the displeasure?" I snapped.

Just chuckled and leaned against the back of a car. "I wanted to offer you a job." He said.

I laughed, full on laughed in his face. "You do realize that I'm the heir to a different company right?" I asked as I took a couple steps forward. I leaned against the back of my car.

"I do know that," Justin said. "I also know that you have single handedly created the biggest piece of technology of this generation, and I know that you're father is hogging it."

"And you want to do what with it?" I asked.

Justin chuckled. "Honestly, I want to use it to crush Stark Industries."

"Funny how you can't do that without a Stark."

"Don't be like that," Justin said as he took a couple steps closer to me. "We all know that you and your old man don't get along. Why not change it. Why not be the only one they talk about, that they praise?"

"No." I said as I turned around and headed back to my car. I had, had enough of this. It was time for me to leave.

"Don't be like that," Justin said as he grabbed my elbow.

I froze and looked at the hand on my elbow. "Get your hand off of me." I growled.

Justin threw me up against my car. "Listen, I'm going to take Stark down and I need the arc reactor."

I froze and slipped my hand into my vest pocket. God bless you, Clint Barton. "Get your hand off of me, now." I stated.

Justin only squeezed my elbow tighter in response.

Please let this be easy to work, I begged as I pulled the taser out and tased Justin. I felt him tense up and he fell to the ground. I bolted towards the car and slipped inside. I turned the keys and the engine roared to life. I didn't bother looking behind me as I threw the car in drive and bolted.

I pressed the accelerator down, I had no idea what had gotten into Justin but I wasn't planning on staying to find out.

I glanced in the rear view mirror and saw Justin managing to stand up. I had only taken my eyes off the road for a couple of seconds.

When everything went to hell.

I could hear the crunch of my car and the shattering of the glass as it rained down on me. I bashed my head against the frame, my head was spinning and I looked around the car, trying to figure out what the hell just happened and how I was going to get out of this.

My car was tilted on its side, I squinted as the light hit my eyes as the door was open.

"Grab her." I heard someone growl.

I whimpered softly as they pulled and grabbed twisting and turning me out of the mangled mess of my car.

I was thrown into the back of a van, my head bashing against the wall as I landed in a heap on the floor.

I looked up and saw Justin glaring down at me. "You're going to wish that you had come quietly," I heard him.

I groaned as I tried to push myself up.

"Na, uh un," Justin taunted me as he drop kicked in my side.

I screamed as I fell back down into the ground, I coughed a little as blood spattered on the floor. Justin placed another kick to my side as my head hit the floor and I collapsed, letting myself fully pass out.

AN: Alright my lovely readers, I know I had promised that I would update every Friday and it hasn't been working gout just like that. But I'm in college and honestly I just haven't had the time to finish it and then I send them to my beta HackerBird and then we discuss it and then I add or tweak anything based on our discussions. It's something that I take pride in the quality of these chapters and judging by the reviews you guys too. That being said... this is late purely because I binged Jessica Jones on Friday (I started at 2am when it was released in my timezone) it was great and I could spend many a hours on the conversation about everything that took place. and then HackerBird took the entire weekend (Lame ;) ) to finish it so we were a little sluggish this weekend. So as a heads up, there will be no chapter this Friday, it's the day after Thanksgiving and its just not going to happen. I will however post a little sneak peak on the tumblr page and if I'm feeling generous then I'll post a snipett of a new story I've been working on!

So go follow the Tumblr page!

Also the ship names were great and we had a winner of Lora, unfortunately and I honestly don't know how I didn't see this, but that's my name, granted it's spelled differently, so I made the executive decision to veto that one. So the winner of the Clara/Loki ship name is Caloki (sounded like ca-loki) so there you guys go! Thanks for the wonderful reviews!

Also we got 75 reviews! we are still a little behind on the chapters to reviews from the first Heroes but I'll take it!

So as a treat I'll give you a hint of the final part of the story.

An old friend returns, and a love long lost echoes from the past

Acceptance is given and Forgiveness is granted

And revelations break apart

So there you go!

Notes on Review:

SusanSmile: Congrats on picking the winning shipper name and I guess a tiny trophy to you for randomly figuring out my name ;)

kira shadow wolf: Not well, I repeat very not well. Nobody messes with her family

NicoleR85: Thanks! I wanted that too, I actually have an AU version where a things end very differently

Mira SeverusSirius Black-Snape: don't worry Tony will have a lot to yell a Loki for without having Clara be pregnant.

JJAndrews: I love Loki too! I've always seen him as an anti-hero especially the way the MCU portrays him. So I wonder, who's your first favorite villain?

Guest: I wonder... (evil laugh cause i=I do know!)

fallondyson: Thanks for the review.

As a special bonus if you want to talk about Jessica Jones, leave it in the box below and we can totally talk about it!

See you in a couple of weeks! (oh I just realized, my birthday will have passed before I put a chapter up... maybe I'll put it up early...)

I'll let you know on the Tumblr page!
