Chapter 2
Heimdall strode down the Asgardian halls until he came to a stop outside of Loki's old quarters. Odin had sent him to give Thor a message and the prince was often found here, reading some of Loki's old journals and stories. He had once told Heimdall that it made him feel closer to the brother he had been forbidden to see.
Heimdall entered the room, and seeing the Asgardian prince seated on the large bed, he moved to sit beside him.
"Good morning Thor. Still finding comfort in those old journals?" He asked. Thor glanced up at him and simply nodded. "I wish I could see him once more. He may have betrayed Asgard and attacked Midgard, but he is still my brother." Thor answered.
"Well, this might be your chance. Loki has escaped, with the help of a strange Midgardian creature that not even I can sense. The All Father has tasked you with finding Loki. He has ordered that once you find him you are to… kill him." Heimdall reluctantly relayed the message he was sent here to give.
Thor quickly rose to his feet at those dreaded words. "Kill Loki?! How could I possibly kill my brother?! Heimdall, you must help me hide him. We cannot let this happen! Loki is still my brother. I will not kill him." He thundered at the gatekeeper. Heimdall rose to meet the thunder god's bright blue eyes.
"You go to Midgard and find your brother. Once you have found him I will send you a distant, forgotten realm. They will help you there. Once you reach Midgard, ask S.H.I.E.L.D. to find two brothers known as the Winchesters. They can help you find Loki. Once I have sent you to the next realm I must report my reason. It is my sworn duty to Asgard. They will hunt you both and it may be years before you find peace. Can you do this?"
They stared each other down before the young prince looked away. "Yes, I can do this. Thank you Heimdall, I will forever be in your debut." He said as he looked back up at the gatekeeper. "Now please send me to these Winchesters."

"Wake up Sammy, it's firework time!" Dean shouted as he shoved his brother off of the dirty motel bed he was sleeping on. It was harder to move the guy than it looked. Sam groaned as he hit the floor and refused to rise.
"Dean, we do this every year. Can't we go one year without getting insanely drunk and firing off those stupid firecrackers?" He muttered from the floor.
"Come on Sammy! You know you love it! I got us a good spot to watch the stars this year!" Dean shouted over his shoulder as he pulled on his coat and headed towards his baby. He climbed in and waited for his giant of a brother to follow. After a minute or two of Metallica music he plopped down into the passenger seat of the Impala.
"Alright, let's go. I need a break from research anyway." Sam said as Dean headed down the highway. After a few minutes they reached an old field outside of town. They had been working a case in Arizona, near Flagstaff. Dean pulled open the trunk and came up with two large firecrackers with bright red, white, and blue bodies.
After a few hours of drinking and firing off the rockets they returned to the Impala. There was a bright column of colorful light that crashed straight onto Dean's beloved car and cleared to reveal a large man clad in silver and red armor. He stepped away from the ruined car and waved his hammer towards the brothers.
"Do you know where to find the Man of Iron? I will replace your transport device in return for your help." He said. Dean stumbled towards his car, the beer was not the cause.
"Baby? What… WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO MY CAR?! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" Dean shouted as he placed a shaking hand on the utterly destroyed Impala. Sam grabbed his arm, pulling Dean away slightly.
"Dean do you know who that is? It's Thor! He was that guy in New York with the hammer. I think he's asking to see Iron Man. You know, Tony Stark? He lives in California. We should take him there. He said he would get the car fixed. You really don't want to mess with him." Sam hissed into Dean's ear. Dean was shaking, not being able to handle all of this.
"He's still dead. He broke Baby! I can't just let him get away with that sort of shit!" Dean growled back. Sam smiled at Thor and held up a hand, asking him to wait. "This guy is a god Dean. He would kill you with one swing of that hammer!" Sam hissed again. Dean took a deep breath and nodded. "We help him, then we kill him."
"Excuse me, but this is an urgent matter. I must find the Man of Iron." Thor said, stepping closer to the brothers. Sam smiled and said "We can take you to him. Uh, we would have to take the bus, but we could get there by morning."
"Then let us begin our journey with haste." Thor boomed.
Well, sorry I took so long to update. I just couldn't think of what to write. Next chapter might be up sooner if I decide to get off my lazy ass and do this. Review or you don't get to hug Loki and Thor.
