"It's done."

Thor wasn't entirely sure why, but Tony looked incredible pissed as he stood in front of Thor with crossed arms glaring at him.

"Oh, that's good." Thor said. "Then we need to start on our plan of attack."

"Yes, let's. So your brother can get the fuck off this planet!" Tony huffed.

"Oh." Thor paled. "What… What did he do?"

"What did he do? I'll tell you what he did!" Tony exclaimed. "Every day, every single day he would just appear out of nowhere at 11 PM sharp and put me to fucking sleep for the next eight hours!"

"Oh." Thor blinked. "Had… Had you slept yet at that point."

"No, not since the last time he put me to sleep." Tony muttered.

"Did you have any nightmares while sleeping?" Thor asked.

"No… I can't remember ever having slept that well before." Tony looked away as his voice became an even lower mutter.

"Did it help your performance while awake?" Thor asked.

"Shut up! JUST SHUT UP!" Tony shouted. "You can't just force people to sleep against their will, that's super rude! Now Pepper is praising me for such a consistent sleeping routine and I wont be able to keep it up."

"Just go to sleep at 11 PM…" Thor suggested.

"Look it's not that simple." Tony seethed.

"Why?" Thor asked.

"What's next dude? Is he going to show up and made sure I eat my salad?" Tony asked.

"You don't eat your salad?" Thor asked.

"Pff, no. I'm a grown man, I can decide for myself." Tony muttered.

"My mother used to tell me that if I wanted to become big and strong, I had to remembering eating my greens." Thor said honestly. "I think it worked just fine honestly."

"And my mother used to tell me that the next time she was at home, sure we'll go to Disney land. Next time, always next time. Screw you Thor." Tony snorted. "Tactical meeting, my tower at 2PM sharp."

Thor nodded. "Sure. Thank you Tony." and Tony walked away as he crumbled.

Just in time for Loki to appear next to Thor looking after the grumbling mortal. "That's lucky. Hela is almost done scouting all of Svartalheim, Midgard would have been next on her list."

Thor looked down at Loki. "Loki seriously?" he asked.

"The Tesserect Thor." Loki said. "Do one wrong thing and it could blow any mortal to smithereens in less than a second. It was for his own protection! And did you see how amazing he looked? His skin was glowing, no dark circles under the eyes. Even his hair was regaining volume, I was doing him a favour!"

"You can do that just with sleep?" Thor asked.

"Mortals are so fragile, yes they start deteriorating without their sleep apparently." Loki informed. "Look at this." he pulled a book out from his pocket dimension. "Lack of sleep causes following. Depression, anxiety, heart diseases, stress disorder, reduced fertility, sacky skin and the list goes on." he informed. "Unable to concentrate, accidents 70 percent more likely to happen. Over all performance severally reduced and the craziest thing!" Loki looked up. "Over 80 percent of people living in this very city doesn't get enough sleep!"

"Huh." Thor remarked. "That's interesting, may I see?"

Loki willingly handed Thor the book which Thor turned around to read all the professional descriptions in it. "Wow." he blinked. "Why don't the mortals just sleep when they need it so bad?" he asked.

Loki shrugged. "No idea."


As promised they were at the meeting room 2PM as promised.

As the time before, all the avengers were there. Though the one that drew Lokis eyes was… The hulk.

Why? Why was he green right now? Why was he just sitting there like that was normal.

Thor and Loki had brought their own little group. Thor and Loki sat next to each other as usual. At Thors left side was Valkyrie whom he insisted was a great genneral. And next to her Volstagg.

On Lokis right Helbindi was sitting smiling pleasantly at them.

"My friends." Thor adressed them in a warm smile. "Thank you for seeing us! I hope you don't mind, with me I have Valkyrie. She is a legendary general on Asgard and she fought against Hela ones before in the distant past! Her insight ought to aid us. Volstagg is my trusted companion and another genneral of the Asgardian armies. You of course know my brother Loki, without whom Asgard itself would have been doomed. And Helbindi, who represents Jotunnheim which also desires to see Helas demise to assure their own safety."

"Yo." Tony waved lazedly at them. "Well, three new ones. I'm Tony, this is my tower and I have been the one mainly paying for your refuge camp and food. Your welcome." he stated. "Also I am the big brain who build your stupid weapon. This is Steve, super soldier. Nat, tactical genius. Clint, best damn sharp shooter on the planet. And the big green guy." he pointed at Hulk.

Loki looked at the Hulk them coughed into his hand. "Excuse me, I don't mean to be rude. But is there a reason that…" he trailed off.

"Hulk hero!" Hulk exclaimed. "Hulk save earth. Smash puny death goddess!" he stated smashing his fist into his own hand.

Tony smirked. "I spend the time showing Hulk some pics and videos, kids love him! Seriously, they adore him to pieces! And Hulk doesn't want to let them down! He wants to be the hero they say he is!"

Loki shrugged. "That's fine." he said. "Though Hulk, please don't take this the wrong way. You are indeed much stronger than I am. Hela how-ever, was able to beat me in seconds. You will not be able to beat her as easily as you beat me."

Hulk huffed, his mouth scrounged together. "Just tell Hulk where to smash." he said.

Loki grinned, never would he have believed he would be glad to see the Hulk. But there they were.

"Am I to understand you all wish to help?" Thor asked astounded.

"Of course." Steve smiled kindly. "If this woman doesn't go down, earth is in danger. Isn't that what you said?" he asked.

"Beside Thor" Natasha smiled. "You helped us saving earth on multiple occasions. It only seems right we help you safe your home for a change."

Thor beamed, his entire face shining. "My friends."

"So what's the plan?" Tony asked.

"Loki." Thor asked and Loki stood up.

"Right. Our main objective is to defeat Hela." Loki informed. "The issue just is, we can't. She's to strong, even with all our forces combined." he said. "How-ever there is a way. Hela draws her power from Asgard itself! You destroy Asgard, you take away her power. Which is what Tony's machine is for." he said. "That and having a Hulk certainly doesn't hurt."

"YEAH!" Hulk grinned happily.

"Issue just is, the baby needs to be sat up." Tony said. "Also we only get one shot. Ones it goes off the circuits will be fried, basically self destruct. I designed it that way." he said.

"Right." Loki stated. "So we will do following. Only I can open the portals between our realms and only I can travel through the branches of Ygdrasil. So I will open the portal we have, as wide as I possible can! And the Asgardian army lead by Thor will walk through while claiming they have come to take on Hela." Loki stated. "Make a loud spectacle, you are to get her attention."

"A distraction." Natasha stated.

"Correct." Loki said. "I shall take Tony through the backdoor, through the branches of Ygdrasil." he said. "He will set up the machine, you will try to stay away from any tall buildings. The machine goes off, the palace fall and then the real attack starts! If we are lucky, it will be enough to take her down!" he stated. "Be warned though, for every person who dies that person will be added to her army of the dead! Her powers will also grow with every kill! Even without Asgard she should still be a strong warrior and skilled sorcerers. Do not let down your guard for a second!"

Clint frowned. "Are we even sure all of this is legit?" he asked. "I mean…"

Then suddenly Valkyrie spoke up. "If you aren't to take this seriously, it is better you do not come." she said. "I faced that woman in battle. I was the general of all the Valkyries, the strongest battalion Asgard had to offer." she said as she stood up. "As Hela turned on Asgard, we the Valkyries road to apprehend her! We came, with our swords raised ready to take her down and she killed all except me who she thrust into the universe. Why? Because she wanted me to suffer. I was the first to question her loyalties, and in response she murdered my love! Right in front of my eyes. Then she made his corpse rise, and his corpse lifted a dagger!" she pulled down her top to reveal the scar from a stab wound on her chest. "She left me for dead…. Or perhaps it was on purpose, because as I collected my army to attack her she could call it self defence as she killed six hundred Valkyrie women! While laughing. She enjoyed it."

There was stunned silence as all looked at Valkyrie.

"This is no laughing matter." Valkyrie stated and finally sat down again.

There was silence as people swallowed.

"Heimdal allowed me to talk to my brother." Helbindi suddenly informed. "Bylestir agreed that this matter affects Jotunnheim as well. As soon as Hela is done with Asgard she will turn her head to Jotunnheim. He is willing to offer a hundred warriors. It's not a lot, but it is what he deems he can spare."

Loki nodded. "I can open a portal from Jotunnheim to the basement of the Asgardian palace." he said. "We just need to make sure that people move in simulatiniously, Heimdal will have t coordinate." he said. "Thor, perhaps it's a good idea I bring a couple of Asgardians to Jotunnheim to help them."

Thor nodded. "Do you have anyone in mind?" he asked.

"Hogunn seems to have accepted Jotunns now." Loki replied. "I think Tyr should be able to aid them, he has also been the one seeming the most accepting of Helbindi."

"What? Your people all have something against Helbindi?" Tony asked. "Cause he's from this Jotunnheim place? What are you all racist or something?"

Thors eyes widened. "That… erhm… Aye." ashamed he looked down. "For a very long time Asgard had a huge problem with racism against Jotunnheim." he admitted. "I am though hoping to resolve this issue, to strengthen the bond between our realms!" he sighed deeply. "That though is an issue for another day." he said.

"Well. Fighting alongside each other, I do believe that will help us towards the goal." Helbindi smiled. "After all, both Hogunn and Loki has declared me shield brother because we faced together. If that is how you Aisir functions, then ironically. Facing death together may lead to peace." he chuckled. "That's also why I appreciate you let me go with the Asgardian guard instead of sending me back to Jotunnheim." he admitted. "It may just show some of them." Helbindi commented as he ran a hand through his hair and as he did, the hair vanished making him bald, his skin became bright blue and his eyes red and he smiled pleasently. "We may not be so different after all."

"Holy shit." Tony blinked. "Lokes can you do that?"

Loki huffed as he turned his head away. "That doesn't concern you!" he huffed.

"He can." Thor assured. "Loki is Jotunn like Helbindi, they are related by blood. "Now, back on track! Our plan of attack!" he stated and all nodded as they listened intensely. This shit was about to get real.
