Loki frowned slightly as he looked at the piece of paper in front of him.

Thankfully the heat had gone down somewhat, so it was not outright unbearable anymore. But it was still far to hot for his own liking… It was annoying.

Back at Asgard he had ended up just freezing over his own chambers, but the place he lived now was a wooden house which he shared with others, and if he started on the freezing it would most likely effect the people he lived.

Maybe he should just get his own house outside of town… Loki sighed deeply, that was for another time now he had work to do.

He dipped his pen in a inkwell and hovered it over the paper, ready to make the first elegant paragraph, careful.

Slowly Loki lowered the pen, it was just about to touch the parchment as the door slammed open behind him.

"BROTHER!"

The pen crashed over the parchment creating the most messy crude black line and Loki sneered as he looked up at his brother whom was filled with energy and beaming like the sun.

"What?!" Loki drawled annoyed.

"No time to loose! Adventure calls!" Thor exclaimed simply grabbing Lokis arm and pulled him outside in a way that was far to familiar.

Wow… So this side of Thor still existed. Sure had been a while, but yup. This was the Thor Loki had known and been forced to tolerate all his life.

Before Loki knew it he was outside at the plaza, dragged by Thor. Finally he put his feet into the ground and ripped his arm away from Thor.

"Thor! I thought you had learned by now. Ground rules! What are we doing, why are we doing it?!" Loki asked.

"Friend Stark is in dire need of help!" Thor stated as he pulled up a device Loki had come to know as a cellphone and showed it to Loki. There was footage, of a man in a weird armor flying around fighting some sort of weird weird guy who was thrusting around objects and making others float. "This footage is life! The mans name is Graviton! He controls gravity! We should go help!"

"Why?" Loki asked.

Thor halted. "Because… Tony is our friend."

"He's your friend." Loki corrected Thor. "Personally I found him very annoying."

"You seemed to enjoy his company when he was here though." Thor replied making Loki narrow his eyes. "Come now Brother. Earth is very generous offering us asylum. The least we could do is help out when they need help."

"Fine, go grab some warriors. I hear the warrior three are aching for something to do. Just go." Loki asked.

"But… We need to be there, you know… Ten minutes ago. And you're the only one who can teleport. But you can't teleport a lot of people at the time." Thor informed. "Also it'll be fun! There's no one I rather want to fight alongside than you dear brother."

Loki was not impressed, not in the slightest.

"Come on. Please!" Thor was outright begging. This man who was a king now, and until just three minutes ago Loki thought he had been doing a decent job. "A man who controls gravity, is that not a worthy challenge for a sorcerer as mighty as you?"

Loki groaned. "Fine! But only this ones Thor!" he held up a hand. "You are a king of an entire race of warriors! There's really no need to drag me specifically into these things."

"Of course there is." Thor blinked. "No one else has your wit, skill, knowledge or pure magical abilities. All of that is worth far more than just another brutal warrior."

Loki opened his mouth then he halted, his mouth closed again and he turned his head away, trying to hide the smile on his face.

"Shall we go?" Thor asked and Loki sighed.

"Fine." he reached out and grabbed Thors shoulder in the next moment they vanished and suddenly stood in the middle of a street, right in time for a man wearing red and gold Armour crashing down right in front of them.

"Auw..." Tony groaned.

"Friend Stark!" Thor gasped.

Tony lifted his head and the armors face drew back to reveal the mans true face. "Thunder king!" he gasped, then his eyes moved to Loki and he brightened up. "DEMON SMURF!"

Loki was not impressed. "My name is Prince Loki! God of Mischief!" he stated.

"Sure Princey, gonna help?" Tony asked and Loki groaned.

"It is why we are here my friend!" Thor stated as he lifted his hammer. "To aid you friend Stark!"

"Sweet! You're the third and fourth guy to arrive!" Tony grinned.

Loki lifted an eyebrow. "Who's the other?" he asked.

Just then a man jumped down, wearing a suite in blue holding up a shield. "Stark! You all right?"

Thors eyes widened, then he grinned and his good arm was raised into the air. "YEEEES!"

The new arrival blinked and he turned around. "Oh, you're… Thor king of Asgard aren't you?"

"Oh look, the ice-block man." Loki commented. "So he really wasn't dead."

The man, Captain America, Steve Rogers blinked confused.

"Okay, I think we need to stay sharp." Tony finally got up. "Here's the deal. Need to take that clown up there down. Ones that is done, Sharwama and beer is totally on me! Stay Sharp!" and he flew back in.

Steve sighed deeply. "Back in there." he nodded and ran.

Thor grinned as he swung his hammer. "Brilliant. LOKI LET'S GO!" and he thrust his hammer letting it lift him into the fray.

"WILL I EVER GET A SAY IN THESE THINGS?!" Loki shouted. "Must you always drag me with you on these insane adventures?! Thor?!" he asked. Then grumbled annoyed. "Fine, okay. Let's go then." he allowed two ice daggers to appear in his hands and ran in as well like a dumb idiot… Just like the other three.


"That was amazing!" Tony grinned, his face stuffed with Sharwama and multiple cans of beers standing on the table between them. "Wow! The way Cap would jump at Thor and Thor would throw him in the right direction! And Lokester boosted my power beams! That was all so cool."

Thor sure seemed happy, so happy he was almost crying holding his own half eaten Sharwama.

Loki just sighed as he picked at a fry.

"It was kind of fun." Steve blushed embarrassed. "King Thor, Prince Loki. Thank you for coming and helping, it sure could have turned ugly without you two."

"Loki really made a big difference didn't he?" Thor asked slamming a big hand down on Lokis shoulder. "He helped protecting earth right?"

Loki looked at Thor. He was well aware, in the timeline Thor had originally come from. Loki had… Okay he had attacked earth. Now it seemed a bit more obvious why Thor had been so eager. He really wanted this. For Loki to well… Be one of the good guys Loki supposed. Well, for Thors sake Loki would try to get along with these people. They weren't that bad, so that was good. Obviously this meant the world to Thor.

Tony chuckled amused. "He sure did buddy." and Thor beamed.

"I really didn't expect you to come at all." Steve admitted. "Didn't even occur to me."

"Earth is giving us asylum. It only seems right to help." Thor informed. "Besides, I am very fond of Midgard and its people."

"Thor asked me to come." Loki simply replied. "He is correct though, that we owe earth and ought to help out when we can."

"Didn't need to be the two regents though." Steve smirked.

"I quite agree. That one is all on Thor." Loki shook his head. "How-ever, bonding with earths greatest hero does seem worth the afford."

"You're very formal aren't you?" Steve asked.

"Yeah, that's the Lokester for you." Tony smirked. "He's good enough though, pretty fun when you get to know him."

"You know him Tony?" Steve asked.

"Hung out with them for a bit in their city, it was fun!" Tony grinned then yawned. "Man, I sure wish I could go back there. Everything is so stressed at work."

"You know you can right?" Thor asked. "I truly meant it, you can come when-ever you wish. And you to Steve Rogers. You are welcome at New Asgard."

Steve smiled. "Thank you. You know I might just take you up on that. It sounds like a place worth visiting."

"It has spaceships and viking aliens. What is there not to like?" Tony asked. "Actually… Thor. I think I might take you up on that offer. I am really tired these days."

"If that is the case, please come." Thor asked.

Tony smiled then halted. "Can I… Bring my girlfriend?" he asked.

Loki frowned annoyed. Thor how-ever smiled, looked like he already knew who this woman was. "Of course." he stated surely.

"Pepper is going to love it." Tony smiled. "She has told me to take a vacation… But not in a laboratory or workshop and not at a resort close to night clubs. She'll be so surprised. A place which is actually relaxing…. Actually yeah, that'll probably shock her."

"Have you mentioned the so called Space vikings and Hulk living there?" Loki asked casually.

Tony smirked. "Heh, suddenly it makes more sense why I like the place huh?"

"Hulk?" Steve asked.

"Ask Shield Steve." Tony suggested. "They have all the information. Please don't freak out, he's harmless."

"Also please don't tell anyone." Thor asked. "No one but the Asgardians and now us knows that Doctor Banner is in our city. And he really likes it that way. He trains meditation with Loki every day to try and control the Hulk."

"Well not control." Loki informed. "That's impossible, but find an understanding. And well, the Hulk doesn't seem to complain either. Finally he has a chance to learn how to control his own strength it seems."

"You've seem him go green?!" Tony asked in a gasp. "That's so unfair! I want to see that!"

"It happens from time to time." Loki sighed. "It's nothing special, he just drinks and wrestles with all the Asgardian warriors all night when it happens."

"That's awesome!" Tony exclaimed. "Now I have to swing by!"

Thor chuckled amused. "Then come." he invited.

Steve shook his head. "For friendship." he lifted his can of beer and the other three lifted theirs in salute.

"For friendship!"
