"Excuse me, mister? Are you okay? Hello? Can you hear me?"

Peter Parker had a lot on his plate at the moment. He had exams, decathalon, the internship and Spidermanning. He also had to deal with the responsibility of taking care of himself for most of the time due to his aunt having to work so much. But his life was predictable at this point, the same stuff each day.

So having a man with slicked back jet black hair and what looked like a wizard robe crouched in the fetal position on his doorstep was a bit of a surprise.

Peter had just got back from a mission with the Avengers. That's right- the Avengers. All Mr. Stark really told him is that they were fighting Thor's relative, an Asgardian. Peter didn't get to see the relative per say, just his minions.

Peter thankfully wasn't hurt, just a couple of scratches here and there. He doesn't know how much Mr. Stark would do to Thor's family if he did get hurt.

But this man, this man was on death's doorstep. Blood seeping out of multiple places, bruises and burns and scars of all sorts littered across his body. Peter was about to lift the man up to bring him inside, but he hesitated. What would Aunt May if she saw all that blood on her couch? Peter decided the man's life was more important than his aunt grounding him, so he picked up the man bridal style and put him on the couch.

Peter gave the mystery man stitches. He's done it before, multiple times. Mostly on himself, but Mr. Stark didn't need to know that. The sudden pain woke the man up, his eyes fluttering open slowly. "W-Where-" the man stuttered, followed by a grimace due to the stitches. "Hey man, you're fine, just to back to sleep." Peter assured him. "D-Don't take me to T-thor, please." The man pleaded.

It hit Peter like a train (I'm so sorry). THAT MAN WAS LOKI. The guy who almost killed his dad his mentor. He must've been who they were fighting earlier! Peter hesitated with the stitches. Should be really be helping him? Peter dismissed the thought. Of course he had to help, the man was dying. Loki was out cold, but he should be okay.
