"Loki," Hel said with a small smile. "What brings you here?"

Loki looks up from the water.

"Rebecca, Rebecca Stark." Loki said.

"There's no one in this realm under that name." Hel said.

"Listen to me, and listen to me carefully." Loki said, approaching Hel. "I promised a little girl I would come back for name is Rebecca Stark;adopted by Pepper and Anthony Stark. Her name is Rebecca Thorsdottir, age eight, and she's a red head. So tell me again."

"And she died." Hel said, with a laugh. "Waiting for you!"

Loki frowns.

"It is not a laughing matter." Loki said.

"How long have you been there for the child?" Hel asks.

Loki narrows his eyes towards Hel.

"Since the day she was born, technically, and the day she died in my arms." Loki said, as he walks over to the side and lets his eyes relax no longer narrowing towards Hel.

"She nearly died as a six year old when the car crashed into the water." Hel notes.

Loki turns towards the left as his skin turns blue.

"Amid a kidnapping." Loki said. "A botched one."

"You intervened." Hel said. "You established this timeline for a little girl."

"Not just a little girl." Loki said. "I am her Uncle."

"You come to retrieve her soul." Hel said, turning over to see a distant figure holding a limp one far away. Hel turns towards Loki, pity in her eyes, knowing what exactly happens to those who're willing to retrieve the soul that once belonged to a dead body. "In exchange for your own life."

"Yes." Loki said.

"You do realize there is not a chance you're going to live five minutes after you return her soul." Hel said.

"I am well aware of it." Loki said. "It is a risk I am willing to take."

A spiral stair case is created by the water leaving enough space for a pathway.

"Rebecca is in there." Hel said. "What you lack will not be needed through the walls of the can feel, sense, and hear. That is the three senses you'll need to find this 'Rebecca' who brings you here."

Loki nods.

"I've been using them for three hundred years." Loki said, tapping his way towards the stair-way using the cane. "Don't ask."

…5 minutes pass…

John saw Loki coming back from the waters holding a brightly glowing figure in his arms. John could not believe his eyes seeing such a sight. Loki came, quickly, not wasting time. An exact replica of Rebecca as a sleeping glowing apparition is in Loki's arms.

"Hold still." Loki instructs John.

Loki carefully paces glowing apparition into the still little body in John's arms.A little blue glow emits in Rebecca's chest followed by the sounds of a child's laughter. John then experienced what many can call 'a flashback' affecting him.

"UNCLE THERE'S A GIRL WITH BLUE FEATHERS AND RED HAIR OUTSIDE THE RV!" Rebecca shouted from the door standing in horror at Mystique.

"Naked?" Loki asked.

"YEAH." Rebecca yelled.

"…Mystigue!" Loki came to putting Rebecca to the side. His eyes narrowed towards Mystique. "How many times have I told you not to visit me on this road trip?

"Twenty, counting the calls." Mystique said.

"I said; no." Loki said, waving his index finger up and down. "You're not going to use Rebecca as a disguise to break into a bank, a security vault, and trick the entire world a little girl is doing all of that." His voice raised up in anger. "Tony Stark trusted me to give her the best vacation and I am not going to ruin it this way. You cannot bring her: period."

"I have not come again for your 'borrowed' blessing." Mystique said, in a reluctant tone. "Or for using her as a disguise."

Loki did not trust Mystique, simply put.

"I am not a roadshow." Loki said, tapping his boot on the floor. "It does not mean you can ask me for help."

"You're back." Mystique said. "For quite a long time pretending to be blind and then not be blind."

"That's because I am not blind." Loki said. "What brings you here?"

"Diamonds."

Loki narrows his eyes towards Mystique

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Loki lied.

"Yes, you do." Mystique said. "You were the one who buried them in some 're quite expensive and valuable being 10 million in diamonds."

"And how do the Diamonds matter now?" Loki asked.

"Someone claims to have found it." Mystique said. "In Navada."

"…So you want to go back into Egypt and dig for hours to prove them wrong." Loki said.

"Yes." Mystique said.

"I wanna dig!" Rebecca cheered, jumping up and down excitedly. "I wanna dig!"

"Nooo!" Tian whined. "I don't wanna dig."

Loki leans forwards halfway out of the door.

"Who else knows I am here?" Loki asked.

"Me and Tony Stark." Mystigue said.

Loki's face turned dark.

"If something happens to these two; I will tell Magneto about your baby being put up for adoption." Loki said, and then he leans away from Mystique. Loki's face became lighter yet it still retained a serious expression. "And I will tell him everything. Everything, Mystigue, because I am not going to Egypt without…" He held out his pinkie. "A pinkie swear."

"I pinkie swear no harm will come out of this." Mystique said, and then she wrapped her pinkie finger around his. "I swear."

Their fingers unwrapped.

"Kids, we're flying to Egypt!" Loki said, summoning a set of wings on both sides of the RV. He looked over to Mystique. "You're coming with me. But you're not coming aboard naked like that."

Mystique turned into her disguise.

"Yay!" Rebecca said.

"Nooo!" Tian over-exaggeratedly whined.

Rebecca starts breathing again; her chest rising up and then down. John looks up towards Loki as the blue light had disappeared. Loki takes a step back away from John feeling unusually off-balanced. Rebecca turns her head towards the side remaining in the darkness of sleep. A wall sprouts up for Loki to lean on.

"Take…Rebecca to Midgard." Loki said.

"You're one lucky god to see a hot alien woman." John said.

"I prefer to think otherwise." Loki said, summoning a blue portal swirling with dark smoke spreading around and around in circles using his trembling hand.

John gets on to his motorcycle, starting it up with a turn of the key, while not transforming into the Ghost Rider himself it made the motorcycle come to life. Shortly after turning the little key; two holes on the mounted circular steel in the middle of the motorcycle front blazed a bright red showing a flicker of flames in the pair. The mounted steel resembles a human skull.

"What do I tell Tony?" John asks.

"I have fulfilled your favor." Loki said. "Now GO!"

Loki sent a powerful energy ball after John. The motorcycle speeds off into the portal before John could make a protest about this last conversation. It is night when the motorcycle landed in the parking lot. The clock on the wall—with a date stamp—read July 31st 8:40 everyone is asleep by then including Tony—Pepper had left the letter to JARVIS so it can deliver the news and keep it hidden until then-and most living creatures.

John takes the elevator holding Rebecca in his arms.

He recalled Loki had mentioned there would be free coffee in the kitchen and had to make sure the lights were on when he did is nothing about having coffee in the night in a tower with the team that protect Earth residing there fortified by several security systems being wonky enough that John could slip by. John somehow found his way to Rebecca's room then puts her into the bed.

"Yeah, kid." John said. "A god sacrificed himself to save you."

John makes his way out of the room.

We somehow find our way into the next night except on August 1st, 2020 in Pepper's house. Rebecca is in her bed. This time it is the bed she's sleeping in every is a rocking chair nearby lightly rocking back and forth. There is a night lamp on the counter beside Rebecca remaining on. Rebecca turns over reaching her arm out towards the lamp then graves it and puts it on her chest.

The rocking chair stopped rocking; next the lamp is turned off.

The door to Rebecca's room opens a crack and we see Pepper.

"Still there." Pepper said, with relief. "Good."

Pepper smiles at the sleeping Rebecca, and then, she closes the door.

"I want that doggy…" Rebecca sleep talks.

The lamp floats out of Rebecca's grip then lands on the counter.

Then the rocking chair resumes a slow rocking back and forth.
