Loki jerked off the floor and looked around shaking. He rounded on Thor who was holding the source of his pain in his arms. Thor turned to him, his body language screamed confusion and something else Loki couldn't place. Loki moved walking to his brother and the man in his arms. The seider's magic was seriously depleted. Thor moved the man out of Loki's eyesight.

Loki looked around. They were in some kind of shield. The Avengers were surrounding them along with other humans. Loki stopped. He felt magic surrounding him. It was breathtaking to be around magic this concentrated. He felt like he was surrounded by something that made him feel special and content.

"What is going on and what did he do to me?"

"Brother, he showed me why he tortured you. You were infected by the same magic that you infected the men of earth with."

Loki looked skeptical.

"I saw through his mind. It was like a sickness that was threading through your every thought, memory." Thor stopped and looked from Loki down to Harry. "It was starting to corrupt your magic. You are no longer as strong as you were."

Loki took a step back. "You lie."

"Brother, if he didn't, you would have lost all of your magic before the start of the new year."

Loki stood frozen. He closed his eyes. His power was half of what it usually was. For the first time, he didn't feel angry in he couldn't remember how long. Most of his memories after he fell from the rainbow bridge were gone but he couldn't remember them before. He moved to the shield and ran his fingers over it. The magic felt like his powerful, seductive so close to his own but more dangerous and threatening.

He could drop the shield. The man's magic was not fighting him but seemed to caress against his own complimenting it. Loki looked at the rest of the room.

"You are safe here." Steve walked to the shield running his hands over it. "We saw what Harry did to you. It's payment enough for what you did."

Clint snarled. "Speak for yourself."

Natasha said something and Clint huffed and strode out of the room. Steve moved to the side picking up a boy.

"Thor, is Harry alright?"

Loki answered. "He is exhausted. His magic is depleted."

Draco moved jerking himself out of Bucky's grip. "Bring him closer."

"HARRY!" Draco screamed. Steve and Bucky flinched as Draco beat against the shield. "BUBBLE WRAP!"

Harry groaned and arched his back. Thor turned back to Loki and walked over to Draco with Harry in his arms. Loki slid his hand over the magic of the shield. It quivered, changed from invisible to light pink then shuddered and went out.

Draco turned to him as his mouth fell open. He started at Loki for several more seconds before he burst into laughter. "You can use Harry's magic."

Loki didn't speak just stayed silent as Steve ran in and grabbed Harry from Thor after he handed James to Bucky. Harry eyelids were fluttering but he still wasn't conscious. Draco was still snickering.

Fred walked over and slapped the shit out of the back of his head. "I'm going to tell him you laughed."

Draco looked over at Harry and burst into laughter again. "I'm sorry."

George snickered too. "Yeah, it's funny."

Lupin snarled at them and they all sobered.

"What is so funny?" Steve snapped.

Draco grinned. "We'll let Harry explain that to you."

Bucky looked to Loki. "Steve, he is who the prophecy spoke about."

Steve's mouth fell open. He snarled moving his body to block Harry's from Loki and strode out of the room. Draco turned to Bucky and James. Bucky's eyes where glued to Steve's retreating back. Loki looked around the room wanting to ask questions but stayed quiet as Thor moved closing rank beside him. He almost wanted to close his eyes. He could still feel the power radiating off the man like an echo pulling at him. He turned towards the direction where he left. A small girl walked into the room.

She giggled and ran up to Bucky and James. "Mom?"

"Mom is with...Steve."

She moved walking to Draco and held up her arms to be taken. Loki looked at her confused. Draco smirked at Loki knowing he was puzzled.

"Lily, why don't you grab James and go play. As soon as your mom wakes up, we can go do something."

Lily grinned. "Can we go to Hogwarts and get me a unicorn?"

"No."

She huffed looking at James before holding out her hand for his. She looked over at Draco her bottom lip quivering with tears in her eyes as she walked away.

"Lily, Uncle Draco is not going to get you a unicorn. If he could he already would have. Stop being such a brat."

Lily hissed at him. "I'm not a brat. I want just want a pet."

James was dragging her out of the room now. "Why don't you ask Uncle Fred and George for one of those weird pink things? I don't think anything else could handle you."

The snake appeared wrapping itself beside James and pushed them into the elevator.

Lily screamed after James said something they couldn't hear.

"I'll tell Teddy!" Was shouted as the doors closed.

Draco snorted then turned puppy dog eyes on Fred and George. "Will you go get her a pink thing?"

"Don't you think you might want to ask Harry before getting her a pet?"

Draco leaned in to Fred rubbing his hands up and down his hip. George snickered as Fred frowned then apparated to the shop. Lupin was frowning at all of them. "Draco, I think it could wait."

Draco snorted. "You aren't the one who gets the look."

Lupin sighed and sat down. "I think I'm too old for this."

Draco sneered. "I don't want to hear it. Remember last time. At least he's not pregnant. He tricked me into doing everything and I couldn't stop him because I couldn't curse his ass and bring him home."

Fred appeared in the room with the pink poof. Draco grabbed it and walked downstairs to give it to Lily. Fred rolled his eyes.

"He is such a push over."

"Says the man who went to London and back." George countered.

"I hate you."

"Harry said you and Snape did most of everything when he returned." Bucky spoke as Draco returned.

"He lied. He was there from beginning to end. He only slowed down when he started to wobble. I have a really weird relationship with him. We started sleeping together out of fear of our flat. When we first left Hogwarts, our flat was a nightmare. There was shit in the walls. The entire flat was filled with dark objects that could kill you if you touched them wrong. We were cleaning as fast as we could with Dobby and Kreature's help but it took two weeks to get it livable without fear of getting killed by the furniture or what was living inside it. After the flat was clean, we found out Harry was pregnant within days. He lost his shit. I was terrified to leave him alone. I didn't realize at the time but he was devastated because he knew he had to die but he'd accepted it because he knew he would be with you both again. He assumed you were both dead. When he found out, he knew that he would have to choose between everyone and his children."

"That's enough." Harry's voice was like a slap.

Steve was steps behind him holding him up. Bucky moved taking his other side. Harry swayed and fell back into Steve.

"Can we all just get some sleep?"

Everyone nodded. Harry held onto Steve and refused to look at the rest of the room.

"I will keep Loki with me." Thor spoke quietly when Steve and Stark turned to him.

Everyone began filing out back to their beds. Thor's arrival had only let them sleep for a few hours.

Loki wanted to talk to Harry. He took a step to him. Steve moved blocking him. Loki stopped and lowered his head. Harry was oblivious to this. Bucky moved sweeping Harry up and walked to the elevator with him.

Steve moved to Loki. Thor braced his body beside him. Steve looked at him for several minutes before he spoke.

"I don't understand what's going on but if you hurt my family, I will do everything to stop you."

Loki watched him walk away and didn't speak or give one of his smart mouth comments. Steve left going down the stairs. The rest of the Avengers filed out before Loki followed Thor down to his room.

0000000000

Harry wasn't fighting Bucky caring him back to his room. He wanted to bitch but Bucky was almost vibrating he was so upset. Harry waited until they got to his room and undressed and headed to the shower. He was tired and his magic was flaring. He walked into the shower and turned it up as hot as it would go. He let the water take away the aches in his back and neck. He heard someone step into the bathroom and slid the door open as an invitation. Steve slid in behind him. Harry relaxed against him as he moved leaning against Harry's back. Harry turned and leaned up to him taking his mouth.

Steve moved gripping Harry's hips and pushed him up against the tiles. Harry pulled away long enough to look back to the room. Steve pulled him from the shower and they made their way to the bedroom. Bucky was sitting on the side of the bed.

Steve sat Harry in Bucky's lap. Bucky began to lick down Harry's throat scooting them back in the bed with Steve attached to his mouth moving with them. It had been so long since they were all together like this. His body was so drained he laid between them and melted as their hands began to move. He felt so relaxed he sighed.

Steve laughed against his throat. "I want you so much but I can a feel your body wanting to shut down."

Harry only hummed in response. "M' sorry."

Steve and Bucky laughed around him.

"Sleep." Bucky whispered as he moved Harry to the middle of the bed and held him as Steve left the room and came back in pajama pants.

Harry fell asleep relaxed surrounded by his soul mates.

Harry woke the next day to Draco buried into his back. Draco was the only one who wallowed on him like this. He groaned.

"Draco, what the fuck? You have boyfriends now."

Harry heard two snickers and realized Bucky and Steve were still in bed. He groaned again and shook his back waking Draco. Draco jerked looking around.

"Hey!"

Draco moaned but didn't get up. "I think I was sleep walking."

"We didn't want to wake you. You were." Steve clarified.

"How fucked are we that no one thinks we are fucking?"

Draco snorted. "Very."

"Where are the kids?"

"Your turn."

Harry moaned. "I hate you."

"Love you too."

"Hate you." Harry pouted. "I need a vacation."

Draco opened his eyes and looked at the sun shining through the window. "Everyone's here. Lupin will handle the psycho twins and the kids will rein in my psycho boyfriends."

"You are still wearing your collar Draco. I don't want to explain that to James. He will ask."

"I'd forgotten when Ron showed up at the shop."

Harry sighed. "He is an arsehole. Don't let him get to you. We have so many other things to worry about."

Harry and Draco were still half asleep with Bucky and Steve listening with them completely in their own little world.

"I had a dream about Luna. I think that is why I ended up in here."

Harry flinched. Draco just leaned his head into his shoulder blades offering comfort. "We can't stop it. Everything legal is already signed. We just have to add two more names to the list."

"Harry, I went into Salazar's vault."

"What did you find?"

"I saw pictures and diagrams of things that you need to see. It seems like Salazar messed with something he shouldn't have. That's why his opinions changed. No one could find out why one day he was so anti muggle after he'd been such good friends with the other founders. He was doing research. He wanted to make the philosophers stone. He had gone as far as he could with magic and knew he was missing something. He began to look at some of the heretic science that was muggle. Men had been fascinated by a stone that would make you stay young and turn metal to gold. He found a small cult of men that were hiding from the church and began to learn from them."

Draco stopped leaning into Harry harder. "All the accounts show a blue cube like what is described that Loki was using. Salazar was working with the cube. He had visions from, he would go into trances. He finished his stone. It is in the vault. Salazar made a philosophers stone from the tesseract."

Steve froze and paled. Draco and Harry didn't notice.

"Did you get it out?"

"Hell no."

Harry nodded. Steve quietly slid out of bed and was heading upstairs.

"Can you get it?"

"Yeah, I'll grab it and all his notes. A lot of it is in parcel tongue. Harry, what happened yesterday with Loki?"

Harry hesitated but buried himself farther down in his pillow. He waited a few minutes before answering.

"He was completely tainted. It was like his entire body was infected. I had to burn it out. His magic, Draco, it's like mine. It's unnatural, and the exact opposite of mine. It was like looking in a mirror, chaos and death. It was terrifying and exhilarating and wrong but like sliding into my own skin when our magic touched."

"Harry, he used your power and dropped your shield."

"It is so dangerous to keep us this close. I think I'm going to have to repair his core. His core felt raped. It felt like something was taking bites off it from the inside. Someone has been taking large chunks of his core and he didn't realize. If I don't fix it, he's going to be dead in weeks."

"You've always played with fire."

"Let's just hope this time I don't get burned."

They both laid quietly then fell back asleep. Bucky sat up when Steve walked back into the room. Steve moved taking in the scene before grabbing Bucky off the bed and pulled him out of the room.

They stood in the hall Bucky was waiting for Steve to finally say what he needed too. Finally, Steve got his voice. He spoke about Loki and the attack on New York and the tesseract being involved. Bucky already knew about the involvement in the war but they hadn't talked about it since he'd come back. He'd barely been able to handle his memories much less what Steve had been through.

Bucky cursed and looked back in the room to the sleeping forms. "What the fuck do we do? Harry plans to help Loki. When they were talking he said Loki is going to die if he doesn't."

"What?" They both turned to Loki who was standing with Thor.

Bucky moved shutting the door. Loki watched him. Bucky moved grabbing Loki's arm and pulled him down the hall into his room. He shut the door in Steve and Thor's face. He heard Steve growl from outside the door. Bucky was feeling like himself more and more since he'd slept with Harry.

"Steve does not trust you."

Loki looked at him and smirked. "You do?" Loki scoffed.

Bucky snorted. "No." His eyes rolled over Loki. "But, I know what it feels like to have your head cracked open."

They stood looking at each other for several minutes. Someone knocked on the door breaking the moment.

"Bucky, open the door."

Bucky opened the door then walked past Thor and Steve without another word. Thor was checking over Loki for injuries while Steve followed Bucky as he moved back to Harry.

"I want to talk to him." Loki spoke pulling Steve's eyes back to him.

Loki watched the emotion roll over his face. "He's asleep with Draco. When he gets up, I'll tell him you want to see him."

Loki nodded and followed Thor back to his rooms.

Steve put his head on the door and wished for strength. The thought of Harry having another soul mate and Loki being it made him want to scream or get sick. Loki had been his enemy. The thought of him touching something so precious to him was heartbreaking.

Bucky walked into the room to find two redheads retrieving their blond boyfriend.

"They usually find one another when there's conflict."

Bucky watched as one of them waved a wand and Draco was quietly and softly lifted then floated out of the room. They were to the door when Lily screamed at the top of her lungs waking Harry and Draco. Harry jumped up running out the door. Draco flailed breaking the spell and hitting the floor before he was running. Everyone ran after them.

Lily stood shrieking like a banshee as Teddy looked on trying not to laugh and James looked furious. Bella was hissing jaw shut beside them.

Harry took in the room in the parents half second glance before he rounded on James.

"What did you do?"

James turned to Harry not the least bit sorry for whatever it was he did. Bella opened her mouth and a pink proof thing was inside her jaws. Harry reached over and got it out and handed it over to Lily.

"What the hell were you doing helping them? Really were you going to eat her pet?"

No, James is my favorite. I usually do what he asks.

Harry hissed at her. "You aren't supposed to pick favorites".

I'm a snake. I can do what I want.

Harry hissed at her again. Go wait in my room.

"Lily, why did James tell Bella to do this, there is usually a reason."

Draco opened his mouth Harry snarled at him. He closed his mouth and waited. Lily sat with her poof in her hands with fat crocodile tears still running down his face.

"I was mad because I overheard Teddy and James talking about his dad."

Harry picked her up and walked out of the room past everyone including the Asgardians. Harry walked into his room and shut the door.

"Lily, baby what did you hear?"

Lily sat her face scrunched up pouting. She was in stubborn mode and very little would pull her out of it. Harry sighed.

"I'm going to tell you a story."

Lily moved an inch closer to him but still sat looking at the floor not willing to speak.

"A long time ago there was a very scared and lonely prince. He was sad because he always felt like he was an outsider. One day, he was in a potions accident and was sent back to the past."

Lily moved and sat in Harry's lap looking up at him with huge eyes. Harry almost smirked, with Lily it was always stories and drama.

"The Prince woke up alone in a strange place surrounded by strange people. He was scared but fate seemed to smile on him because even though he was alone, he found his soul mates in the past. But the Prince was sad because he knew that he would have to return to his time and would have to leave his mates."

Lily sighed dramatically. "Did the Prince leave them?"

Harry frowned and nodded. "Yes, but when the Prince left, he was carrying the children of his beloved mates."

Lily smiled. "And did the Prince meet his mates again?"

Harry leaned down and kissed her nose. "Yes, fate gave the Prince a gift and let him meet his mates again."

"James said Bucky was his dad."

"Yes baby, and Steve is your father but I haven't had time to tell him. Wizards and muggles sometimes are different and soul mates can have children. I've only had a chance to speak to Bucky."

"Will it change what I have with Draco?"

Harry held up his hand and sent his patronus to Draco. Draco walked in the room seconds later. "Lily is wondering if it will change things between you and her now that she has a dad."

Draco dropped down on the bed beside Harry and snorted. Harry laughed.

Harry began to speak again. "Lily, remember what we told you before about our family."

Lily smiled. "Family is not blood but the people who are willing to love, fight and protect one another."

"When you are scared or sick you find Draco. James usually comes to me first but you are Draco's spoiled princess. Does it matter to you that he is family by love instead of being there for any other reason?"

Lily climbed into Draco's lap. Everyone knew of Lily's love for her spoiled dramatic uncle. Harry just rolled his eyes at them.

"I'm going to tell your dad. I promise, but Lily you love Draco and no one is going to make you stop or come between that, okay?"

Lily nodded.

Draco was grinning at his little hell spawn. Harry rolled his eyes at them then before Draco smirked. Harry waited for whatever insanity was about to come out of his mouth.

"I promised the kids we would all do something when you woke up."

Harry groaned. Family outings were always interesting and with everyone here, Harry whimpered.

"It can't be that bad. Come on. I'll get the kids ready and we'll meet you upstairs."

Harry watched them leave the room and bounced back on the bed. He was not even kind of looking forward to this. He heard the door open and Steve and Bucky filed inside.

"I have to go out. You think we could um... have sex in 15 minutes?"

They both comically froze then Steve moved slamming the door. Harry put wards on the door as Steve ran at him. He laughed unable to stop at his enthusiasm. The laugh ended quickly when he was picked up and thrown back farther on the bed. Harry waved his hand and their clothes hit the floor. Steve snarled as Harry threw his head back and whispered the charms to open himself up.

Bucky watched them quietly. Harry looked at him as Steve pushed him against the bed and slid inside. Harry felt his eyes roll back as he raised his hand for Bucky to join them.

Bucky moved following them and climbed on the bed. It had been so long. So damn long. Bucky sat, his hands ghosting over Harry's arm but he didn't do more than watch as Harry tried to take in what was happening. His mind was shutting off as Steve pounded into him. Steve was so much bigger. He kept having to look at him and memorize the newness of him. The small Steve was no more and he almost felt like he was cheating on the Steve from the past who was more gentle, slower and fragile. This Steve was a fucking whirlwind.

"You are so big." Harry whimpered when Steve shoved his legs farther open and pushed his knee up to his chin. "Fuck… just like that."

Bucky made a noise beside him and Harry and Steve turned to him. Bucky eyes were half mast and crazed. Merlin, he was sexy. Harry reached out latching onto his metal fingers pulling him in. Steve had the same idea and grabbed his right arm jerking him closer and took his mouth. They both moaned at the contact. Steve sped up slamming into Harry's prostate and he screamed as Bucky's hands began to move over his body. He pinched, scratched, and dug into his skin memorizing him. Harry hissed and jerked Bucky out of Steve's grip and pulled him down.

Their lips met and Harry swallowed the groan that burst from his lips. He jerked away pushing Bucky back. They didn't have time for more. "Fuck my mouth."

Bucky stared at him, his pupils blew swallowing that beautiful blue. He didn't hesitate and moved straddling Harry's chest and released his cock. Harry didn't wait jerking Bucky down by the front of his shirt, ripping it open and let him slide inside. Steve whimpered behind them.

Steve's hands gripped Bucky's hips as Bucky slammed into the back of Harry's abused throat. Harry gagged taking him in and moaned around him sending them both over the edge. Steve sped up as Harry tightened around him like a vice. Bucky pulled out fisting himself as he finished. Steve finally jerked and filled Harry then collapsed half on Bucky and half on the bed.

Harry just hummed and pushed Bucky over sending Steve falling with him.

The knock on the door made Harry groan. Steve laughed and rolled over heading for the shower. Harry sent his patronus to Draco.

"Give me a few."

They laughed as Draco's patronus followed. "Stop fucking and get dressed."

Harry snorted and followed Steve to the shower. Bucky walked inside. Harry motioned behind him and Bucky nodded and turned to get dressed and meet them upstairs.

Harry followed Steve in the shower and smiled at him. "Where's Bucky?"

Harry bit his bottom lip.

"Bucky wasn't shocked when I told him about James. Lily was asking about you and I promised her I would tell you." Harry stopped when Steve wrapped his arms around him. "I had already planned to tell you. I didn't know if I could tell you in the beginning but everything has gone to shit and James is Bucky's. It's going to be a lot easier on him because Lily is Draco's. Like more than mine. You have to share her with Draco."

Steve was grinning at Harry when he looked up. Harry bit his lip again. "Not what we thought would happen with our lives when we were huddled in the dark by the fire."

"I'm so glad you told me."

"Why aren't you freaking out? I completely lost it when I found out?"

Steve looked sheepish. Harry looked at him for several seconds. He stopped going over everything that had happened over the last several days. His eyes got big when he put it together. He dumped shampoo in his hair and snarled when Steve tried to touch him. He finished his shower and got dressed glaring at Steve as he headed upstairs.

Bucky was waiting with James. Harry was frigid with everyone. Bucky was glaring at Steve who was red faced and frustrated.

Harry understood now, they had been spying on him.
