Summary: I am having some writers block on another story so I'm writing this to get my brain unblocked. Tony discovers that he has a kid a fully grown up kid. His worst nightmares have come true. Thor has Loki on earth because Asgard is full of jerks. Bucky is there too because Steve loves his Bucky bear. This story is basically why it is a really bad idea to put three insane individuals with the maturity of twelve year olds under one roof. Agent Coulson resumes his role as a glorified babysitter for a Stark.

Warnings: Hydra is moving into position. Mary begins to have vivid dreams. The dreams are visions. Vision is a typical little brother. Loki pleads to Odin. Odin reveals Frigga's last gift to Loki. You will be kicked in the feelings. I tend to do that. I'm sorry.

Chapter 13: The Weaving of Threads

The day is like any other day. The sun shines and the birds sing, but the air feels wrong. An ominous air falls on the city but everyone ignores it.

All over the city employees come in for work. Some dread the day and some are tense and nervous. It is the calm before the storm.

Mary walks through a lush grassy field and looks around. A little white haired boy and chestnut haired girl run by laughing. She watches as they run up to a beautiful long haired woman in a sky blue gown. Mary follows them and the woman waves her over. "A pleasure to meet you my dear."

Mary looks between the woman and children. "Who are you?" She looks at the children as they giggle.

The woman motions for her to sit. "I think you already know who they are my dear. Justice and Victory incarnate." The children climb on to Mary and fall asleep in her lap as the older woman smiles. "Beautiful just like their father and mother."

Mary gently moves a stray hair from the boys face and sees high cheekbones and a straight nose. She looks at the girl and sees high cheekbones and a button noss. "They are - who are you?"

The children laugh and open their eyes. Their eyes look emerald. The girl climbs up and whispers in her ear. "Nana. She's Nana."

Frigga smiles and nods. "Go visit your father. I need to speak with your mother."

The children kiss Mary and leave her with a shower of magic and snow. "Bye mommy!"

Mary's eyes fill with tears as she watches them run off. "They are our children?"

Frigga nods and puts her hand on her shoulder. "Yes. They will help fuel you when you fight to guide the Infinity Gem. Let them keep you grounded and listen for their voice. Loki will be there to help you. Remember you must walk like a queen but fight like a mother."

Mary nods and looks at Frigga. "Do they exist now?"

Frigga smiles and places a crown of flowers on Mary's head. "Yes."

Mary wakes up and sees Loki smiling as he slumbers. She kisses his forehead and smiles at him. "Do you see them too, my Loki?"

Loki slowly opens his eyes and he holds Mary. "Good morning. You look lovely." He moves her hair from her face. "I had a beautiful dream. I dreamt of children, our children. Beautiful, intelligent, funny, and kind. Just like their mother."

Mary smiles and kisses him. "I bet they both have your eyes."

Loki smirks but looks at her confused. "How did you know it was two children?"

She kisses him and whispers into his ear. "I saw them too."

Loki looks at her in shock, confusion, and joy. "I've told you before that mother taught me magic. She also taught me healing magic. She said that when a married couple both dream of children in the same night then they already have children."

Mary lays against Loki. "I fear that if I am then Hydra would steal them. But we aren't sure."

Loki looks at Mary and rubs her scalp. "We could ask Vision or Wanda. I know it's too early to ask Bruce for confirmation. Telepaths can hear first firings of newly formed nerve cells."

Loki lays Mary on her back and runs his cobalt hand over her abdomen. He lays his head on her stomach and closes his eyes. He relaxes as Mary massages his scalp.

Loki feels something familiar yet foreign flow through his veins. He feels magic familiar but new. He feels a rush of power and suddenly he shoots up when the feeling explodes into physical sparkles.

Mary squeaks and laughs as Loki jumps off the bed. "Loki you have magic! You're a wizard Loki!" She cackles and crawls over to look at him as he is sprawled out on the floor.

Loki scrambles up and smiles at her. "The Norns said that my true form would unleash my true power."

Mary smiles at him and runs her fingers along the ridges of his face. "Would you like to see if I'm with child?"

Loki smiles and climbs back into bed. "I would be honored." He leans over her and gently places his hands over her belly. "This may tickle a bit."

Mary gasps then giggles as a cool sensation fills her senses. Loki reaches through her with magic and feels her warm life force. He feels a small spark and another spark. Two sparks.

Loki opens his eyes and smiles. "We are pregnant. The dreams are true."

Mary looks at him and smiles as Loki wraps his arms around her. He whispers into her ear. "I'm not letting you go."

Mary holds him close and smiles as Loki looks at her. "I never want to let you go. Can We name the girl Frigga and the boy Anthony."

Loki smiles and nods. "I like Frigga but I was thinking Buchanan for a boy."

Mary smiles and hears knocking at the door. "We have time to work on a boy's name. I will answer the door."

Mary walks to the door and opens it. Phil is standing holding a tray of fancy breakfast food. "Congratulations on your nuptials and thank you for allowing me to be a part of it. I've managed to get you two a private breakfast and lunch but Mr. Stark requires you two for dinner."

Mary kisses Phil's cheek and takes the tray. "Thanks Phil. You're the best agent in SHIELD. I've got something for you."

Mary leads Phil inside and produces two tickets. "Someone told me that you and your special someone enjoy the opera. Have fun and look suave."

Phil raises a brow. "Most people would say look sharp."

Loki walks out of the bedroom wearing only sweatpants. "The problem with you Agent Coulson is that you always look sharp." Loki smiles as inspects the tray. "So you must be suave and debonair tonight. Norns know you could use a break from this mad house."

Phil smiles and nods. "Thank you sir. Take care of her while I'm out."

Loki nods and shakes Phil's hand. "I swear on my life that I shall protect my family with my life." Loki leans in and whispers. "I've picked a suit for you. Trust me your date will love it."

Phil nods and leaves. Mary looks at Loki and sighs. "Dad wants us to have dinner with him. The countdown has everyone in a panic."

Loki nods and dips his finger in the chocolate sauce. "I know. I'm frightened too. But I swear on my life that I will protect you. All three of you."

Tony is working on a new suit as he is video chats with Wanda. "Of course they don't get along Wanda they are siblings. Life is no fun without a good fight between brilliant minds."

Wanda rolls her eyes. "Stark what is the real reason?"

Tony sighs. "Hydra will be here tomorrow. They will take Mary and I want as many people as possible to be here."

Wanda looks shocked for a moment. "She's the Architect."

Tony scowls. "Don't call her that. She never had a choice in that!"

Wanda raises her hands. "You don't understand. Hydra is desperate if they want her back. Her name sent fear into the eyes of Strucker. He called her the Vengeful Goddess."

Tony's eyes go wide. "Repeat that."

Wanda looks at Tony. "Strucker says that she was of unnatural intelligence. One day she made a friend of one of the prisoners and as punishment for her humanity they tortured and killed him in front of her. It is rumored that her gaze became hard and cold as she returned to her work. Within hours the facility was hers. She gave people the chance to run. None could. She gave the soldiers and scientists the chance to give up the way of Hydra. They wouldn't . She made the research leader destroy the facility himself."

Tony puts his tools down. The story never gets easier to hear. "I've heard It before. But this puts it into better perspective. How do you know this?"

Wanda shakes her head. "I read Strucker's mind. If she were here when Ultron attacked we may have seen her dark side."

Tony nods. "That's the past. I want you two here for dinner, tonight."

Wanda nods and looks at Tony. "We will. I just wish to say that no matter what happens you must always love her. She has proven herself to be a good person."

Tony nods. "I will. Now go nag Vision." The screen shuts off and he sighs. Time is almost up. Hydra is coming. He has to find a way to stop Hydra.

Loki and Mary walk in to the common room side by side. Loki has his arm around Mary's waist and smiles as they are greeted. Mary giggles quietly as she feels Loki's magic gently trickle into her body and find the two budding lives she carries.

Tony looks at her and tilts his head. "We are having an international feast. This way."

Odin sits next to Tony and Bruce and continuously glances over at Mary and Loki. Tony notices Odin's side glances. "Something wrong?"

Odin shakes his head. "No. Everything is right. The Norns threads are weaving for The better as we speak."

Tony nods and looks at Bruce. Bruce shrugs as Vision and Wanda finally arrive. Vision looks around the room and tilts his head. "What is that sound?"

Clint looks at Vision like he's crazy and Natasha tilts her head. Everyone keeps eating and talking until Vision walks over to Mary. "The sound is coming from you. It sounds like electricity sparking."

Tony looks at Vision. "None of us hear anything."

Wanda holds her hand up to silence Tony. "Not physically. It is a telepathic sound."

Mary and Loki look at each other and smile. Loki wipes his mouth. "I've recently learned that in my native form I have magic and um, well."

Mary wipes her mouth and looks at Vision and Wanda. "What you're hearing isn't electricity it's the first sparks of neural activity. I'm pregnant."

Loki smiles as he squeezes Mary's hand. "Twins."

Odin promptly drops his fork and Tony chokes on his pasta. Bruce slaps Tony on the back and looks at the couple. "Are you sure?"

Loki nods. "Mother taught me healing magic. Part of healing is diagnosing. I reached out and found them. Two tiny budding lives." Loki chuckles and looks at Tony and Odin. "They are beautiful,perfect, healthy, and strong."

Tony looks at Mary and swallows hard. "Does anyone else know?"

Mary shakes her head. "No. It was supposed to be a secret a while longer but the fuchsia faced big mouth ruined it."

Vision tilts his head and throws a napkin at her. "It isn't my fault that even in utero your children inherited your loud mental volume."

Mary smiles and sends Vision a mental image that makes him cringe. He looks at her disgusted. "As father would say, you have issues."

Mary smiles. "Thank you."

Vision shakes his head and sits with Wanda. He looks around and feels apprehension and worry. He looks at Mary. "I worry more for Loki than anyone here. Such beautiful children will attract suitors."

Loki coughs and looks at Mary. "Oh my."

Tony laughs at Loki's expression. "Welcome to fatherhood!"

The meal continues happily as the team picks on Loki and Mary. Mary laughs as Loki thinks about ways to scare boys away from their daughter. "Dear, what if our child or children are homosexual?"

Loki gapes a moment. "Is this one of those things we have to wait for?"

Mary nods and leans against Loki. "I'm sleepy. I'm going to bed."

Loki kisses her. "I need to talk to father. I will join you a bit later."

Tony stands and offers his arm to Mary. "I want to talk to you too. May we walk and talk."

Mary nods and walks out arm in arm with Tony. Loki looks at Odin. "Drinks on the balcony?"

Odin nods and follows Loki. "Remember when you offered to allow me to stay in mother's winter estate upon Vanaheim?"

Odin nods. "Aye, the offer still stands. It must be prepared."

Loki nods. "I ask for asylum in the estate. I know that Mary must face Hydra's army, but it will be only one piece. I wish my children to be born in safety."

Odin nods and puts a hand on Loki's shoulder. "You are already a good father. Have you discussed this with Mary?"

Loki shakes his head. "No. I actually discussed it with Stark when it was supposed to be a honeymoon. I was going to surprise her." He sips his brandy and looks at the horizon.

Odin nods. "Stark discusses it as an option now." Odin swirls the wine in his glass. "Your mother left you something. I've had it put in your room. Remember Loki, you were born to be a king."

Loki watches as Odin stumbles. "Father!"

Odin waves Loki off. "I must return to Asgard. I'm sorry my son."

Loki nods and helps his father stand. "All I ask is that you live long enough to see your grandchildren born and named."

Odin nods and vanishes in a bright blast of light. Loki cries and prays to the Norns for safety. He finishes his glass of brandy and walks to his floor. He opens the door and sees Mary looking at a set of woven blankets.

Loki walks over to her. "Mother made chests of items for Thor and me. She said one day that I would have children of my own to swaddle in those blankets. She was right."

Mary nods and looks at the rich blues and purples. "Dad told me about Vanaheim. I want to go."

Loki kisses her head. "It was supposed to be a honeymoon surprise, but such is life." He sees Mary pick up a long, short, wide ash wood chest. "I've never seen this before."

Mary places the chest on the coffee table and Loki touches the smooth surface. Mary touches the edges as Loki touches the top and the box glows a soft blue. Patterns of vines, flowers, and snowflakes move across the chest and it slowly creaks open. Two crowns sit nestled in plush velvet with a letter in between.

Loki looks at the letter and sees his name written in High Vanir. He starts when he feels Mary's gentle touch upon his shoulder. Mary smiles at him. "I will go make tea."

He nods and waits until Mary is out of the room. His hands shake as he opens the letter. The letter still smells of his mother's lilac perfume. He looks at her neat script.

My Most Treasured Loki,

If you are reading this it means that I have ascended to Valhalla and cannot grant this gift to you and your beloved spouse. I am full of regret that I cannot meet her personally or hold the beautiful children that you both shall gift to Yggradsil. I take solace in the fact that you are happy.

In this chest are the crowns of Vanaheim. Njord has no heirs and legally the responsibility of proclaiming the High Rulers of Vanaheim falls upon my shoulders. When this chest opens it means you and your spouse have been found worthy to ascend the throne. I know you will rule well.

Do not worry over the Elders of Vanaheim. When the chest opens the Elders will have visions of their new rulers and will make preparations accordingly. You and your beloved will be accepted as royalty.

In parting I wish you to know that our last conversation -as painful as it was- is forgiven. Words spoken in fear and anger are often foolish. I am your mother as you are my son. I will love you beyond Ragnarok. Have a happy life My Son.

Love,

Your Mother.

P.S. I know how many children you will have. There are more chests.

Mary walks in with the tea and sees Loki crying and smiling. She puts the tray down and holds Loki close to her.

Loki looks at Mary. "She had forgiven me. She never stopped loving me. She also said there are more chests of family items."

Mary kisses Loki and smiles. He seems fragile. It is probably best not to tell him that there are exactly five more family chests. Three of which were made for daughters.
