After having first apologized and then thanked the humans many times who had given Sif and Loki shelter. Thor picked up Loki by himself, and together the trio left the building to make their way to the camp outside of New York where he was sure to meet up with the rest of the Asgardians and Jotunns.

Thor swallowed as he remembered how badly Bylestir had been hurt, and he had left him and Helbindi behind… He hoped they were all right.

Only to quickly did Loki pass out from exhaustion. Thor really didn't like this… Loki was little more than a ragged doll in his arms.

He knew that Loki was a very proud person whom under any normal circumstance would have been objected to be mothered let around being carried around like he was a sick body… That more than anything showed that Loki wasn't well at all.

It felt like it took forever, but finally they reached the camp and true enough. They were quickly swarmed by Asgardians.

"My king!" One asked. "Is it true, you delivered the killing stroke?"

"King Thor our hero!" "Your majesty."

"Please." Thor asked making them all quiet. "It warms my heart to see you well. We won the day, and soon enough we will celebrate. First though, we need to asses. Take care of the wounded." he swallowed. "Has anyone seen King Bylestir?" he asked and people silenced.

Then a woman stepped forward. "Yes my king. This way." she gestured.

Thor nodded as he followed the woman carrying Loki in his arms, finally they reached a tent where the woman opened the flap for Thor and allowed him to step inside.

By the sight that met him did Thor breath a deep sigh of relief, for there was Bylestir in bed, wrapped up tight in bandages and very alive with Helbindi sitting on the ground next to him, also bandaged up several places.

Bylestirs head lifted and he looked at Thor, then he send him a grim smile. "You did it." he stated.

"I couldn't have done it without the weapon Loki got me." Thor informed looking around then finally found an empty bed where he gently put down Loki. He took a look at Lokis face and gently swept away a strain of black hair obscuring Lokis face, then turned back to Bylestir. "How are you holding up?" he asked.

"I'll survive. Like I always have." Bylestir stated grimly.

"Close one though." Helbindi admitted. "I was… Overwhelmed. To many Chitauri, they almost got me. If it had not been for those brave warriors who came to our rescue."

"Who?" Thor asked.

"I believe you call them the warrior three." Bylestir commented. "Hogunn, Fandral and Volstagg right?"

Helbindi nodded. "Yes… They saved us."

"That's good. I'm glad you're okay." Thor sighed then turned, looking worried at Loki.

"Loki don't seem to be doing good." Helbindi couldn't help but point out.

"No…" Thor sighed deeply then turned back. "But I don't know what I can do about it."

"I did have a thought…" Helbindi then admitted.

"And that is?" Thor asked.

"Well, remember when Lokis skin suddenly healed." Helbindi asked.

"Yes, it was amazing. He does have amazing healing magic doesn't he?" Thor asked.

"Actually… Loki didn't do that." Helbindi admitted making Thor blink. "I did." Helbindi then admitted. "I touched Loki and my touch transformed him to his Jotunn self, when I stopped touching him he reverted to Aisir and his skin was healed though… Doctor Strange informed me his insides were still very damaged and my touch couldn't do more than that."

"Oh.." Thor swallowed. "I… I see."

"I was wondering though." Helbindi commented. "What about the Casket of winters?" he asked. "If we allow Loki to bath in its energy it might heal him."

That made Thor halt and his eyes widened.

"To bad huh." Sif sighed.

"What… Why are you saying that?" Thor asked.

"The casket was on Asgard right?" Sif asked. "It must have been destroyed now."

"Well erhm… Actually." Thor blushed deeply.

Sif frowned. "What?"

Bylestir smirked from where he sat. "Oh, so you didn't tell anyone?" he asked.

"Told what?" Sif asked.

"Heh… It never came up. It was before Loki re-appeared on Midgard, while we still thought he was dead." Thor stated. "I sort of… I snook into Asgards vaults." he admitted. "And I took the casket of winters… and gave it back to Jotunnheim."

"Wait… What?!" Sif exclaimed. "You stole the casket of winters from the vault?!" she asked.

"No I returned it to its rightful owner!" Thor exclaimed. "I just… Did it without telling anyone at Asgard."

"Wow…" Sif blinked. "You really are Lokis brother! That sounds like something Loki would say."

"Hehe." Thor blushed. "It's good though, we can try it!" he turned to the two Jotunns. "At least we can try! It might be able to heal Loki!"

Bylestir sighed deeply. "King Thor… I would gladly lend you the casket of winters for this endeavour, but we are still stranded on Midgard."

"Not for long, I'll get us home." Thor said. "I promise." he halted. "Doctor Strange still have the space stone, that at least should be able to transport us. We just need to…convince him to give it back."

Bylestir glared at Thor. "Could you tell him that that I am a regent of a realm that is constantly at odds with itself. I need to get back to Jotunnheim!" and then he hissed in pain, forcing Bylestir to sit back.

"You need to heal brother." Helbindi commented.

Bylestir hissed annoyed but laid back as he groaned.

Then Thor felt it, his own aches and pains. His empty eye socket was hurting as well.

"Thor…" Sif breathed touching his arm. "You need to lay down to. You look like death."

Drowsily Thor nodded, then laid down on the ground next to Lokis bed.

Sif sighed as she shook her head, but grabbed a blanket and wrapped it around Thor "This is what I am in for isn't it?" she asked while tugging Thor in. "Well fine. I'll take care of all the children involved." she commented stroking Thors hair one time, then stood up only so she could also tug Loki in with another blanket.

"King Thor is a lucky man." Bylestir commented and Sif turned to him.

"A warrior and a woman, brave and kind. Should you ever be tired of Asgard. Jotunnheim would only be better of with such a woman." Bylestir smirked.

Sif laughed amused. "Nice try King Bylestir, but I am settled thank you."

"Most likely for the better." Bylestir admitted. "My new shield brother and my newly found little brother most likely will need someone like you around."

Sif smiled. "Thor looks up to you, did you know that?" he asked. "I think… He wants you to be his older brother."

"Hmm." Bylestir smirked amused. "That's funny… I look up to him."

Sif blinked, then she smiled. "I would never have believed it. Not just peace, but friendship between Asgard and Jotunnheim. And I'm really happy about it too!"

"Yeah…" Helbindi sighed from where he was sitting. "Me to."

"You know, I think we're going to be fine." Sif commented and the two Jotunns nodded, the only thing between them relief and hope for the future.
