Almost done! Just two more chapters left. Nothing really exciting happens, mostly just talking from now on…a nice calm ending :)

Enjoy!

"So you're a werewolf." Aileen looked at Remus.

Remus froze, "Y-yes, I am."

Tony perked up, "A werewolf? Like howl at the full moon werewolf?"

Remus nodded.

Tony beamed, "You have to let me scan you. I know you can't transform at will, but just think, if we get enough information, we could run a full simulation." He started muttering.

"And just think, Sirius is an Animagus." Harry rolled his eyes.

"What's that?" Natasha asked.

"Someone who can transform into an animal at will." Sirius slipped into his dog form and barked. His tongue hanging from him mouth.

"Aww" Aileen cooed and started petting the dog, "Aren't you the cutest."

"You can't keep him Aileen." Tony said.

Aileen stuck her tongue out at her Dad.

"Real mature Aileen." Harry snickered. "I thought queens were supposed to be regal?"

"Oh they are. It just doesn't count if their brother is being rude." Aileen sat up straight and looked down her nose at Harry.

Harry laughed.

"You're a queen?" Ginny asked.

Aileen nodded. "I am. When my predecessor died, she named me her heir because she saw my potential. Every queen has had their defining moments. I seem to have two, having a human for a father and opening our trade gates to Jotunheim. They have special ice that we value, in exchange, we give them light."

"Light?" Remus asked.

Aileen nodded, "Jotunheim was a dying planet. It was very dark and the ground was frozen. With the light we provided the hunting lands have flourished. They are rebuilding their cities and bringing new life to their realm."

"That's amazing." Hermione said.

"It's all because of Papa that I even considered it. I learned his story and couldn't not help the Jotuns. They have been wronged for a very long time." Aileen frowned.

"By who?" Fred asked.

"Asgard mostly. Odin may have won the war against them, but he hasn't done them any favors since. I will not step foot in his realm."

"Thor and Loki's father?" Hermione asked.

"Adopted father." Loki scoffed. "My mother may be his wife and Thor my brother, but I am no son of Odin."

"He has done a great many wrongs against Loki, I didn't used to understand, but I do now." Thor said sadly.

"What kind of wrongs?" Sirius asked.

"Punishments I didn't deserve. He raised me, telling me stories of how monstrous Frost Giants were and yet, I was one. He killed two of my children and banished the others. He tried to kill Tony when he found out I had married him. We have gone to great lengths to conceal the pregnancy from him." Loki replied.

"He tried to kill Dad?" Harry asked.

Thor nodded grimly, "He did indeed. He has no care for mortals. He was furious to learn of their marriage."

"That's awful." Hermione whispered.

"Yeah, the two of us never had any luck with fathers." Tony said. "He killed his birth father, and he was tortured by his adopted father. My daughter was killed by my father and my father-figure paid to have me kidnapped, tortured, and killed. Yeah, we got daddy-issues."

"Y-you killed your Dad?" Ginny squeaked, she drew closer to her Dad.

"It wasn't that big of a deal." Loki rolled his eyes. "He wasn't the first person I killed and he wasn't the last."

"Careful Rudolph, your crazy is showing." Tony smirked. Loki smiled at him.

"So you kill for the fun of it?" Snape raised an eyebrow. "That's quite the trait for a supposed hero."

The Avengers glared at Snape. "That's rich coming from you Mr. tall, dark, and sulking. You don't exactly look like the hero type either. How many people have you killed or thought of killing? We know all about your little journey to the Dark Side." Tony taunted. "It's true. Loki has killed people, so has Thor. Natasha and Clint are two of the best assassins in the world. Steve fought in a war. The Hulk has killed thousands in a fit of rage. And me, I killed so many people I was known as 'The Merchant of Death'. We all have some dark pasts, but you have no right to judge us."

In a swift movement Snape stood up and pointed his wand at Tony, ready to fire a curse. He didn't get very far though, a knife was held to his throat by Aileen. Natasha and Clint held guns, both pointed and ready to fire at the smallest show of movement. Loki was standing in front of Tony with one of his daggers out. Thor had his hammer ready and Bruce stood tense. Even Harry was standing with his wand pointed at Snape.

"I would be very careful Professor, wouldn't want anything bad to happen." Aileen said in a deadly voice, she pressed the knife closer to Snape's neck, a trickle of blood fell.

"Harry, what are you doing?" Mrs. Weasley exclaimed.

"I'm protecting my Dad Mrs. Weasley." Harry replied calmly, his eyes not leaving Snape.

The room was tense, no one dared to move.

"Make your next move wisely mortal." Loki hissed.

"Severus." Dumbledore pleaded softly.

Another tense moment passed, Snape finally dropped his wand and Aileen removed the knife from his neck. One by one, the Avengers relaxed, though Loki pulled Tony closer to him.

"Harry, why would you want to attack Professor Snape?" Ginny asked.

Harry glared at the Potions master. "He made to attack my Dad, there's no way I'm letting that happen."

Dumbledore sighed, "These people are obviously a bad influence on you Harry. You must see your best option is to return to your relatives. You are safer there."

The Avengers, the Trio, and Remus and Sirius all glared at Dumbledore. Even Fred and George were glaring at the aging Headmaster.

"Listen here Gandalf the Grey, you aren't taking our son. I adopted him legally and there is no way I'm letting him go back there." Tony said harshly.

"You must understand, he is not safe here. Voldemort could easily find him here and capture him." Dumbledore said.

"I'd like to see him try." Tony replied. "I've been working on an anti-magic barrier that works against your type of magic. Once I have it up and running it will be implemented in all of my properties, your little villain will have a very hard time getting in here."

"An anti-magic barrier? Is that even possible?" Mr. Weasley asked.

Tony nodded, "It's almost finished too. I'm going to have Harry test it out later."

"But if it does work how will Harry defend himself?" Mrs. Weasley fretted. "He won't be able to defend himself if anyone comes to kidnap him.

Loki rolled his eyes, "Why do you think we're going to put him in training. By the time Natasha and Clint are through with him he will be more than capable of defending himself.

Harry groaned, "That's going to be torture."

"Come on Harry, I promise to go easy on you." Clint smirked dangerously.

"Isn't that the punishment you told us about?" Hermione asked.

Harry nodded.

Ron snickered, "I don't envy you mate."

"Ron this is nothing to joke about, this is child abuse!" Mrs. Weasley protested.

Ron rolled his eyes, "What his Aunt and Uncle were doing to him was child abuse."

"Did you forget, Mum, bars on his window?" Fred asked.

"I like Harry's new family." George smiled.

Harry smiled at the twins.

I don't know if some of you will think I'm being mean to Snape...he is a nice guy at the end but come on…in the third book he was a total jerk.

This chapter was short so I might post something later…haven't decided yet.

Review Please!
