She said his name.

His real name.

However sadly in combination with the word 'hate'.

Loki let the Destroyer retreat with a sorrowful frown. He had only seen Jane as devastated as this once before, which was when he had left her and once more it had been his fault.

"I hate you, Loki!"

Yes, she had all reason to. He had broken her heart without an explanation. He had dissapeared from her life without a note. But those were not the reasons she hated him at this moment, because she didn't even know that Loki, the brother of Thor, the man behind the name she was screaming was the same person, who had been living with her for over three years. She didn't know that Loki was John. She only knew one thing and that was that he had killed Thor. The man she had fallen in love with after he had broken up with her.

Sure, she had all reason to hate him. However she didn't know what was behind all this, what reason he had for killing his own brother. First of all his inability of ruling and the guarantee of Thor creating a war in the whole universe. Second, the point that he stole Loki's right to become king and with that the right of going wherever and whenever he wanted. Third, the point, that Odin loved his biological son more than him, he wanted to be the only one for his parents, the real pride, for once. And finally fourth, the most important reasons of all; his brother had stolen his woman from him, the only female, besides his mother, he had ever loved. It were good reasons for him to kill him. She would surely understand if he would explain it to her and she would most certainly get over Thor when she would get back with him. It was his plan after all of this. He wanted to return to earth, tell Jane everything that had happened and at the same time he'd be responsible for Asgard. It could most certainly work. They could be completely happy together.

He tried to whitewash the situation, so that his conscience would stay quiet. However he did not have to do that for long. He heard lightning bolts and thunder behind the Destroyer.

This could not be. He made the metal creature turn around and looked upon a huge lightning ball, coming from the sky with Thor inside of it.

Mjolnir had come back to him! Of course, how could Loki not have forseen this? He had sacraficed himself so heroically for the mortals and so he was worthy of the weapon again. Well played, father. He heard himself think.

"Oh. My. God." He heard Jane say, as she was watching Thor's transformation from a man to a God. How ironically. Loki thought, hearing her choice of words. Unfortunately the application of the english language was not important at this moment, what was however, was the hammer coming out of the lightning bulb flying directly into the Destroyer's face, stopping it from blasting another fire beam. The giant turned around to see where Mjolnir had flew off to, just to get hit on the head again, making it fall to the ground.

Loki growled. He let the creature fire another beam at Thor, sadly he launched himself into the air, swirling Mjolnir around. He had created a wirlwind, which dragged the Destroyer into the air.
When Loki saw Thor's sillhouette inside the eye of the storm, he ordered the giant to fire another energy blast, however Thor shielded the fire from him with his hammer and dove downwards, approaching the Destroyer slowly, with Mjolnir before him. Due to the impact of the fire energy, the hammer collided with the blast, overpowering it and forcing it back at the creature. Just when Thor jammed the hammer deep into its faceplate Loki lost the connection to the Destroyer and the sight of the throne room appeared before him.

He had made it. He had destroyed the Destroyer! Great. Loki clenched his teeth and fists.
Fortunately he still had another plan and it was time to carry it out.

Full of rage he left the throne room and walked towards the Bifrost, where he expected visitors very soon.

Thor landed with an elegant smack on the ground. He walked with a proud face toward his friends. Behind him cars and the metal giant fell on the floor, nevertheless he didn't seem to care, he didn't even flinch at the noise. A red cape graced his iron harness, which made him look even more muscular than he already was.

"So, is this what you normally wear?" Jane asked chuckling. She didn't know what else to say, since the feelings she had felt were too overwhelming. She felt like she had been in the worst rollercoaster ride ever, after the fear of losing Thor and now finding out that the tales were true. He really was the Thor, the one and only God of Thunder.

"More or less." Thor replied with a smug face.

"I like it." Jane breathed with a wide smile.

Thor's corner of the mouth rose for an instant, however did not form a complete smile. He put on a serious face quickly when saying: "We must go to the Bifrost site. I will have a word with my brother."

Jane wanted to say something, but got interupted by the agent that had stolen all of her equipment.
"Excuse me!" He shouted from behind them, getting out of a car with other agents. "Donald..." He said to Thor with a sarcastically tone, "I don't think you've been completely honest with me."

"Know this, son of Coul. You and I, we fight for the same cause; the protection of this world. From this day forward, count me as your ally." Thor walked up to Jane, putting a protecting arm around her shoulders. "If you return the items you have taken from Jane."

"Stolen." The astrophysicist corrected him pertly.

"Borrowed." Coulson corrected Jane. He looked at her for an instant before he continued. "Of course you can have your equipment back. You're going to need it to continue your research... which, after today's events, SHIELD would like to fully sponsor. If that's all right with you."

"YES!" The happy outburst came quite unexpected, Thor flinched at her high-pitched voice, but chuckled.
"Sorry." She said ashamed and tried to keep her voice calm this time. "Yes, I would like to except that offer."

Coulson smiled at her, reaching out his hand, so that Jane could shake it.

"So, how can you speak our language?" Darcy asked out of the blue.

"Your language? Ha! Silly girl!" Volstagg laughed. "You're speaking ours."

"Would you like to see the bridge we spoke of?" Thor asked the scientist fondly.

Jane looked at him with wide eyes. It seemed to be her birthday and Christmas at the same time. "Ehm, sure." Her eyes sparkled with curiosity and bliss.

Thor reached for her and grabbed her waist, to pull her closer to him. "Oooh." The woman laughed in his arms. But before she could think into the situation Thor launched himself into the air and took Jane with him.

She was flying! She couldn't believe it. It was the most beautiful thing she had ever done. Seeing everything from above, with the most handsome man holding her and shielding her from harm. They landed next to the markings on the ground.


Laufey and two Frost Giants appeared out of the Bifrost and walked onto the platform.
Loki was waiting for them, eyeing the creatures with a vile expression. He pulled Gungnir from the Observatory's control panel. The giant apparatus slowed to a stop, when the Demigod stepped in front of Laufey. "Father. Welcome to Asgard."


Thor called up to the sky. "Heimdall! Open the Bifrost!"

Nothing.

Jane exchanged glances with the God of Thunder. He looked worried. She didn't know why though. Who was Heimdall?

"He would open it if he could. I fear the worst." Thor stated looking up to the sky.

"The worst?" The astrophysicist asked.

"Heimdall is the gatekeeper." Thor explained. "He sees everything and he opens the Bifrost. I fear that he is killed by my brother."

"So if he is dead..." Jane dared not to vocalize her thoughts.

Volstagg looked at the others with an anxious frown. "Then we're trapped here forever." He ended Jane's sentence.

Fandral didn't seem to find it that horrible. "Then I suppose we'd best start settling into our new lives." He turned to Darcy. "Are all earth maidens as fair as you?" He asked charmingly.

"No." Darcy chuckled, seemingly enjoying the attention.

The scientist was torn between. At one point she was worried about the God and his friends, that they could not return home at the other she didn't really mind if they -especially Thor - would stay on earth a little bit longer, even if it was wrong because his brother, Loki was apparently ruining Asgard and earth in Thor's absence.

"Primitive. Good enough for hunting small game, I suppose." Volstagg was looking at a SHIELD's Agent's machine gun, while his face showed that he was losing hope.

Jane sighed and wanted to say something to make them feel better, when a beam of light exploded from the sky. The eyes of the astrophycisist widened. She had never seen anything this beautiful. The beam showed all the colours of the rainbow. The term rainbow-bridge was apparently not invented by chance.

"Sorry my love, these things happen." Fandral said to Darcy before he joined the other Asgardians at their sides.
The brown-haird woman made a pouting expression, but didn't answer.

The God of Thunder said goodbye to Erik and Darcy and pulled both of them in a friendly hug.

Jane walked up to Thor slowly. So this was goodbye. She didn't want him to leave, even though she knew it was the right thing. However she was scared of being left alone all again. Why couldn't she just find a normal guy on earth, who would not leave her for something unexplainable or leave her to save another planet. There was a patern in this somewhere.

Thor pulled her closer to him. "I must go back to Asgard, but I give you my word. I will return for you."

Her heartbeat quickened. There was sincereness in his eyes. He was honest with her, she was sure of it. She smiled at him vaguely and felt her head wandering towards his. She wanted to kiss him eagerly, however Thor only took her hand putting a kiss on it, just like a few days earlier, before he had left to search his hammer. The woman looked at him disappointed, since he didn't kiss her, but he had not let go of her yet.

"Deal?" He asked looking into her eyes deeply.

She didn't answer, she just pulled him into a kiss forcefully. The kiss was passionately, yet tender. His lips were soft and warm and he moved simultaneous to hers. It was a wonderful feeling, not like the kisses she had shared with John, it was different, nevertheless it was nice and she had butterflies in her stomach. Thor, the God of Thunder had feelings for her!
Sadly he parted too early for her liking, yet he rested his forehead on hers.
"Deal." Jane breathed softly. Thor smiled and looked her in the eye once more before he walked up to his friends. Just when they stood in the beam of light they leaped into the Bifrost.

Jane felt a breeze of wind flying through her hair. There was a strange feeling inside of her. She was glad that she had found Thor, but now he was gone and he went not to another country, no he went to another planet. Only because he had to save Asgard from his brother, Loki.
