Once back on the Hellacarrier Frigga started to mutter out spells casting them until she knew it was enough before she turned to her husband.
"It is done."
He nodded and turned to the Avengers who were looking at them. "I will speak with your King."
"That would be me." Fury said walking into the room. "I'm Nice Fury, the Director of SHEILD."
"Shall we talk in private without your children present?"
"Children?" Tony said and looked around. "Is he talking about us?"
"This way." Fury said leading him to another room.
Clint shrugged. "I guess so."
"Why would he think that Fury is our dad? It's not like we even look remotely apart."
They started to talk as Frigga had ended up talking with Hill and Coulson about something so the rest moved closer to the door to talk about what happened.
"Where do you think they took her?" Steve asked folding his arms.
"To Jutonnhime," Thor said. "I do not think she should have gone but Helbindi didn't seem threatening, and with that note Mother showed me I have to let it be… for now."
"Are you alright?"
"I am soaking wet… I am not okay." Loki said trying to ring her hair out. "It so strange to see my skin blue."
"It is your natural skin color."
She shook out her hair and walked under the bed and started to toss out her clothes. "I am aware now… still shocked, but aware. Do you have any clothes that would fit me?"
Helbindi folded his arms. "I will send someone to fit you some."
"Can you hand me something to wrap around me?"
He walked to the bed and took the fur on the bed and tore a size piece off before leaning down to hand it to Loki who's hand was sticking out waiting. A few minutes passed before she stepped out with his wrapped around her tied with some of the furs strips.
"Thank you." She said. "Um. This necklace you gave me…?"
"It is from Odin and he said it would enough to keep you awake. Come, we must get you some fitted clothes."
"Yes." She held the cloth holding it against her chest.
Helbindi watched her as they walked. He walked slow but she was pretty much trotting her feet pattering on the hall floor. Leaning down he picked her up as she looked at him and placed her on his shoulder where she sifted and held onto to silver horned crown with her left hand with the right holding her fur to her chest.
"Thank you, Brother."
"You do not know how good it is to hear you say that to me."
She looked at him. "You saved my life. Someone you never known or not that I had known. How did you come to know of me?"
The King noted it was half whispered. "I came to know of you when Thor Odinson came to the realms. They came after rouge Juton somehow got into Asgard. You managed to convince him and his friends to leave but one of ours, a Juton called him a Princess and a battle broke out. One of the warrior Jutons grabbed your arm and it turned your skin back to normal."
She smiled sadly and with a dry laugh. "Normal. I know not what that is."
"Yes, I understand it must shock you. But, yes, that is how we discovered you and then you were lost into the void. A lost Prince we thought we would have back was gone once more and than tales of you appearing on Midgard, the next back on Asgard and when we went to see of such matters we were told of your mind being undone, torn, and molded, but we still tried to retrieve you and I think the All Mother panicked and she sent you to Midgard. But now we have you back."
"I cannot stay." She said calmly.
"Do you think I would let you go?"
"You would have too. I am only a separate part of myself. Two more are out there and I know not how long this spell will last."
He seemed to be anger. Loki noted his eyes hardened so she leaned more against him, hugging the side of his head she was leaning on with one arm, the other hand holding the royal fur that draped on his shoulder so she wouldn't fall.
"Fear not Helbindi, I will return to you as you have returned for me."
Reaching up he held her legs to keep her from falling as they walked up some stairs. "Know that there was a reason you were left in the temple and it was not for your life to end."
She closed her eyes and smiled softly. "Did they love me?"
"Until death, and soon your Father shall pass on soon as well."
"Pass on? Is he not dead?"
"He might as well be. He lingers on the border. I will take you to see him soon. Clothing first."
Loki frowned a little. "If he is alive than that means that he did not die long ago in battle as first thought."
"No, he was badly injured. So much so that it was a shock that he lived, and with the casket gone and our healers trying to heal the many it took longer. He got better to the point of him walking, talking, even sparring, why he was even joining in on hunts and was going to lead the army again."
"What happened?"
"Laufey was killed."
Loki looked away. "I killed my Mother,"
"We do not hold it against you." Helbindi said as he opened the door were two tall tailors stood and he leaned down to set her on her feet. "Besides Laufey knew you were not yourself when you did what you did."
"What? What do you mean not like myself?" She frowned and looked up at him.
"I shall explain. For now I must tend to something."
"Wait-!"
The door closed.
"Now than young Prince, er, Princess, shall we bath you?"
Loki stood proudly. "Yes. Do you have a hot tub?"
The two giants had no idea what that meant.
Little Loki had awoken alone so naturally this called for wandering which was his favorite thing do when no one was around. Standing he grabbed his doll and walked over the door, down the halls passing by agents who paid little attention to him.
Going down to the halls he went to the control where he knew the others would be. The helm. Going up the stairs he saw everyone including his Father and Mother, but he was remembering a dream he had had and it had vanished like the others did. It was lingering. They dreams had started to become more real and staying longer.
Stepping up into the place it was Tony who noticed him. "Hey, awake already?"
"Yes." Loki smiled and continued walking.
To everyone's shock, and to the Odin family Loki walked right passed them and hugged Steve and Natasha before letting the red head pick him up and set him on her hip. Frigga looked calm as she set her arms down as she had expected his son to come to her, but Odin and Thor both knew she was furious but kept her composer.
"Uh, say hi to your Mom and dad." Natasha said awkwardly.
Loki did want to. No, he was still upset with the dream about them so he shook his head. "No."
"Loki, don't be rude." Steve said patting him on the back. "Say hi."
A feeling came over almost instantly and he looked at Steve. "No, thank you."
Well if things hadn't been awkward they were now. No one said a word before Natasha cleared her throat and walked away taking Loki with her. Steve looked at Odin and Frigga and apologized before following them.
"If it makes you feel better it's because of a dream he had of you two killing him a few days ago."
"Damn it Stark, not now." Fury growled.
"Killing him? Explain." Odin ordered.
Thor stepped up to him. "Loki had been having dreams of the past and the last few days it has been nothing but of horrors. He won't even go near the Son of Stark for two days."
Odin seemed to be in thought before talking to Frigga and Thor in a language the others did not understand. They seemed to be considering something when suddenly there was a tremble almost like a ripple and everyone stopped.
It happened again and this time Thor raised his Hammer ready. And before anyone could react Bruce looked down at his pocket that held his wallet and pulled it out. The ripple happened again and it was coming from the object. Pulling it out he held and a flash came over him before he crumpled to the floor.
Bruce gasped and looked around. "Hello?"
There was no answer.
Walking a little ways of this strange place he heard something. It was the sounds of something slinking together. Walking to the where the sound was coming looking around nearly tripped on stairs. Looking up Bruce saw a person sitting on a throne, made of chains, and that person being held by it. For a second he wondered what it was before he remembered what Lady Loki had said about this.
"Loki!" Bruce ran up the stairs and to him. "Loki, can you hear me?"
The Norse God said nothing. Instead he picked up his head slightly, tugging at his right arm and the slinking of the chains began again. Reaching over Bruce was going to help him get the chains off when the marble suddenly came out of his pocket and started to float to Loki who gasped as some of the chains fell from his shoulders.
Bruce attentively reached up and touched Loki's shoulders and suddenly his vision became white and settled to see a ceiling. There was noise all around, shouting, screaming, and suddenly pain. Unbearable pain filling him that even the hulk was screaming helplessly.
Shaking violently Brice thought he was going to die when something grabbed his hand and it vanished all but leaving him shaking with the aftermath as the warm hand pulled him along hallway. There barely any light and it was so dark he could only see the hand pulling him along and the voice.
"Run! Run, Dr. Banner, run faster!"
They ran passed a door that was opening into what looked like a decaying garden maze. Stumbling to keep up he gasped as the memory of the pain was still there and continued to try to keep up with the person pulling him along until the light drew slightly and he could see who was pulling him.
"Loki?!"
"Keep running!"
Suddenly Loki changed into Lady Loki as they ran, she was trying to help him and another turn and she became little Loki and it began an never ending switching between the three forms of Loki. Bruce held on tighter when suddenly she stopped and put his hand as they stopped in front of an old large, rusting mirror the must have been grand at its time but now was slowly falling apart.
"You must go."
"What about you?"
Now it was Little Loki. "I must stay. I cannot leave but you should not have come here without all the items. Go!"
"Wait, Loki-"
"LEAVE…!" Normal Loki screamed in fear and pushed him into the mirror.
Bruce thought he was going to be picking out glass shards when suddenly he gasped and his eyes opened.
"Bruce? Are you alright? You've been out for almost an hour." Betty said looking over his vitals. "We couldn't get you to wake up."
Looking around the room he could see his fellow Avengers and friends around him. They sighed relief and Tony patted him on the arm.
"So, what happened?"
"I saw Loki. The original before he split himself. He was chained somewhere on a thorn."
They all looked at him and Steve stepped forward. "Did he say anything?"
"He said that I shouldn't be there with all the items."
"He means all the clues he left behind." Thor said. "For the splitting spell than requires all the items to present at the time. The All Mother had confirmed there are two left. One for each Loki. We have on from little Loki and Lady Loki will get the third."
"Then where is the last one?"
Thor frowned. "On Asgard… My friends I ask that you come with me to my homeland and help us find the last item."
"I need to stay here." Natasha said right away. "Someone has to look over Loki."
"Your call, Cap." Tony said and all eyes turned to the Captain.
Steve nodded. "We're going to Asgard. Suit up."
As they started to leave Bruce stood up and walked over to Steve before he could leave. "Steve?"
"Yes?"
"There was another part of it… They tourutred Loki… and I felt only a minute of the pain but it was horrible."
Steve's eyes got a little wider as he looked at his friend. "Bruce, you shaking."
"I know. Just remembering it makes me…"
Placing a hand on his shoulder Steve gave a comforting squeeze. "Rest. I'll come get you when it's time and don't worry, we'll save Loki."
"Helbindi...! Help...!"
The Juton King leaped to his feet racing to where the scream came from. It only took him a few seconds to reach the room that he had originally been Loki and had never been used he banged the door opened eyes narrowed before stopping.
Struggling holding onto the sheet that was slowly slipping on the bed Lady Loki wriggled trying to hold on to it as she had sadly and unexpectedly rolled off the large bed while sleeping and now was afraid of falling.
Helbindi let out a snort of laughter. "I should get you a costume made bed, loki!"
"Do not laugh at me- Ahhh!" She slipped further added to her tangled state. "Helbindi, help!"
Still chuckled he walked to the bed and scooped up the small juton and lifted her to his shoulder where she scrambled into her normal sitting place and folded her arms now mad and pouting. Turning he left the room closing the door.
"Now that your awake shall we go and see to the books of which you asked?"
Still frowning but holding on to the fur Loki nodded. "Yes. Stop laughing it was not funny! And I was not taking a napy by choice!"
"Yes, because you passed out during the fitting."
Blushing a little Loki looked away and muttered. "I was hungry…"
"Are you still hungry?"
"Yes." Her stomach seconded that.
"I will get you something to eat. They walked into the library and a tree was inside and some kind of pale fruit was growing on it. He plucked on. "Have one of there. Their very good."
"And half the sixe of me." She said but took a bite and enjoy the sweet, cool taste. "Delisous."
"Do you normally talk with your mouth full.
"No." She said taking another bite and talking with her mouth full. "But that might be due to the split-these is so good."
"There's plenty more."
"Good." She took another large bite. "I want to be surrounded by these!"
He continued to walk but ended up holding on to her legs because she seemed to interested in eating that pear he wondered just how long she had gone without eating. Soon she got to the seed and started to nibble the last of the fuirt until it was basicaily licked clean.
"Did they starve you on Midgard."
"No. I don't know why I'm so hungry all of a sudden. Can I have more?"
"On the way back."
She held tight to the seed nodding.
"You can leave it anywhere, the servants will pick it up."
"Not that's just rude. Why should they pick it up when I am perfectly capable of throwing it into a planting pot and grow it?"
"You plan on growing it?"
"Of course. What is a better way to start my first day home?" Loki asked rubbing the seed gently. "And I shall remember you each time I pass it and or water it."
Helbindi was curious to why she said that. "Why would you think of me?"
"Because you saved me and gave my room and also when I was hungry you fed me this fruit. Thank you Brother, it is a most wonderful homecoming gift."
A little touched but not showing Helbindig nodded. "But that is not your gift. I shall give it to you soon."
They got to the part of the libry Loki had requested about and she was let down to scan the lower two shelves before he put her up on the next ones before she pulled out one book that was two feet shorter than her.
Hlebindi held onto it for her as they left but he did remember to grab Loki another fruit on the way out.
Little Loki watched as the Avengers were beamed to Asgard. Natasha had been sent to go too in the end because Fury had said too but she didn't leave until she gave Jane a stern death glare before joining her team and leaving.
Sighing he sat down and took out his book and this time instead of using crayons he took out the paints, that where new and used. He took the black on and shook it firmly before pouring the paint into a small round cup that was meant to hold the paint and took it to the kitchen. Walking back he dragged the rather large draw pad that Steve had gotten him, a portfolio he believed they called it and laid it on the island table.
Sitting on the stool for about thirty minutes feeling weighted down and dull. He had been that way since Bruce had passed out. He was seeing images in his mind. He couldn't place them. exactly but he knew they were real. Something was going on. Not just a split but he was slowly realizing that something bad had happened before.
Taking the brush out of its package he dipped the brush into the paint and started to draw singing an old song he had learned to try and calm himself. The painting started to take shape as childish as it was to most people.
Darcy walked in messing with her phone when she saw him. "Hey, short stack, what'ca doing- oh my god…Uh, don't move. Stay there."
She turned and ran down the hall back from where she had been talking to Pepper, Jane, Betty, and Queen Frigga. She busted into the room.
"Loki's drawing something freaky!" She pointed at the door.
Frigga was the first to move, fast but with grace. When she got there Loki was nowhere to be seen and she walked up to the painting and gasped putting her hand up to her mouth. Pepper was next and looked at it before looking around.
"Jarvis! Where is Loki?"
"He teleported himself outside about ten seconds ago."
"Where is he headed?"
"Down 5th street. Now appears to be holding a black book, Miss Potts."
"Book?"
Frigga quickly grabbed at her side. "It's not the journal he took."
"Uh, guys?" Darcy said.
"What is it?" Jane asked.
Darcy held out the doll that Loki always carried around. "This thing has a knife stabbed through it."
"Oh my god, we need to find him." Jane said.
Loki frowned.
He didn't remember leaving the tower not did he remember how he ended up in the middle of a random neightborhood nor how he ended up holding a strange looking letter. It must have been an important letter because it his seal on it. SO Loki used his magic to make it small and tucked it into his pocket before walking around lost.
"Hey, kid, what are you doing?"
Loki looked up. "I'm lost. I need to get back home."
"Hey, I've seen you somewhere before." The teen asked tilting his head.
"I live with my brother and the others at the Stark Tower."
"What?! Seriouly?! Hey, you ain't pulling my leg are you?"
Loki looked at that other's leg and at his hands. "No?"
Laughing the teen patted his head. "Come on I'll help you get home, but fist I need you to show me proof that you live there."
Loki thought about it before pulling out an picture of the Avengers and him together. "Is this enough?"
"Whoa! You have credit than my life will! Alright, kid let's get you back home."
"Thank you. I am called Loki."
"Really?" The teen picked him up and set him on his shoulder. "Nice, to meet you Loki, My name's Peter Parker."
To fan girl 666: I like the thought of her not wanting to wanting to share the 'Mama Bear' thing.
To skydancer2000: I like them too being perents too! I think it so cute and it came to me and I was like I'm so gonna write that down! XD lol Yes, poor Jane! Yeah, Loki when through bad times… Servants know everything. Helbindi wanted to take Loki hoem and there's going ot be a huge reason why. There will be Clint words with Thor soon, do not worry XD
To kalhisto azula: Thank you! Bye bye!
To Sadowfey913: That's so nice of you to say! Lol Roar! Sending Loki to a school was something the doctor said but they won't let him because he might have random moments of his past again. TT Looooki, nooo…. Lady Loki did see it coming. She's pretty smart. 8D. There shall be more of them now that it's moved to Asgard.
To lederra: I know, I know, I'm working on it. I do use spell check. Like three times. Maybe I should got for five times. Hm…. Yes. XD
To CuteButTheDevil: Yes, Loki loves his kids but sadly their all taken from him. TT. I figured if he had no friends, aside form Thor and the Worroirs 3, than he would have spent most time talking to the servants, instead, thus the reason he would send them letters, and the reaons why Lady Loki didn't throw her fruit seed on the floor.
Thank you all!
….Yes, yes, it's Peter Parker aka Spider Man
