Jahoo! ^_^ Next Chapter! And I'm still trying to remember the thing I wanted to say. It wasn't that this is an AU, because this is obviously an AU because Thor 3 isn't coming out fast enough for me and my Mom. (Thor is her favorite)

Chapter 4

Noodle Shop

The next day, Jenny, Marina, and Summer all walked down to the noodle shop together. Momo hung onto Jenny's shoulder, looking around at the sights. Momo loved being outside, it was a treat for her.

Inside the shop, Sensei Kaizen was approaching an elderly man with a white mustache, getting ready to take his order. They could see Jane, Thor, Darcey, Ian, and Uncle Erik waiting for them, along with Joey.

"Hey," Jenny smiled as she entered the room. "Glad you guys were able to find it."

"It smells delicious in here!" Jane said.

"Get ready to have some real Chinese food!" Summer said.

"Hey Cuz!" Jenny reached up to ruffle Joey's hair. "Thanks for the text last night!"

"Oh, you're welcome…" Joey replied, attempting to brush his hair back into place. "Punk,"

"Jenny, I didn't know you had a pet monkey!" Jane said. "Is she friendly?"

"Usually," Jenny replied. "You can pet her, she'll like ya,"

Jane reached up and gently stroked Momo's cheek. Momo leaned into it and grasped Jane's hand.

"There ya go, she likes ya!" Jenny smiled. "I found her by a gutter… No one knows where she came from. Some think she had a previous owner. She seems very-well trained."

"Indeed," Ian said. "Is she a Cariblanco?"

"Yeah!" Jenny smiled. "I'm surprised you know that! A lot of people mistake her as a Capuchin!"

"Ian is an animal lover," Darcey commented.

"I had a lot of animal books growing up." Ian added.

"Hey gang…" A young, Japanese man walked in. "What's shakin'?"

"Hello Chijo!" Marina said, taking her friend's hand. "This is Jenny's amigo, Jane."

"It's nice to finally meet you in person. Jenny brags about you all the time when you do something awesome!" Chijo said.

"Aw, thanks," Jane blushed, as they went to sit down at a table.

Loki had still been resting to recover more of his strength, by Odin's orders. Loki was certain he was well again… but maybe he wasn't. He was still having those strange dreams.

He slowly got up from his bed. He made his way over to his mirror and cleaned his face off. When he looked up, he saw her. Staring back at him from the mirror, was the girl. Her jade-green eyes were clear as day, her brown-auburn hair flowing loosely past her shoulders. Loki gasped and stepped away from the mirror, closing his eyes.

When his eyes opened again, he was in his bed, jolting upright. Sweat was dripping from his head. He looked around the room, only to find one of the healers sorting out her bottles of medicines, placing them carefully back into her bag. She looked up at Loki.

"Oh, I'm sorry." She said. "I hope I didn't wake you."

"It's… it's all right." Loki sighed in relief. "What's going on?"

"Well, I was going to wake you," The Healer replied. "See if you could use some medicine for your fever. But once I felt your head it seemed you were back to normal. You are good now to get up and leave your room."

"Are you certain of that?" Loki asked as she turned to leave. She paused when he asked the question, but didn't turn back towards him.

"It's just, I've been having these strange dreams… I don't know what they mean." He continued. Now, she turned back to him, interest and concern filling her eyes.

"Anything specific?" She asked.

"I dream of my mother often." Loki replied. "And… I keep seeing a girl I've never met before…"

"Sir," The Healer took a few steps towards him. "Dreams… do pass in time." She said. "And sometimes, some can see their futures."

"So, you ate how many ousters?" Darcey asked Jenny with wide eyes.

"Fourteen." Jenny replied. "They were so good I couldn't stop myself!"

"I remember when you wrote me about that." Jane added. "How long did you live in California?"

"A year," Jenny said. "My friend, Tui and his family invited me to dinner a lot more after that night. His dad shook my hand and said; come back anytime!"

"Sounds like you had a great time there." Jane stated.

"Yeah," Jenny said after eating some more noodles from her bowl. "The weather is nice there. Sometimes my mom would take me to Santa Cruz, or Hidden Villa in Los Altos Hills… and it was so nice and green…"

"You miss it, don't you?" Jane asked.

"Very much," Jenny whispered. After a moment of silence from the group, Jenny cleared her throat and sat up straight. "But, Manhattan is home." She concluded. "No changing that. I guess I'm a city gal at heart."

"Guys!" A young girl with short, red hair ran into the shop. Kaizen rushed over to her. Kaizen was not only Jenny's self-defense teacher, he had taught many children when he still had his classes.

"Yuki," Kaizen said, taking Yuki's hands. "What's wrong?"

"There's something going on down the street…" Yuki panted, trying to catch her breath. Joey had quickly stood and rushed to Yuki's side.

"What is it?" He asked.

"Joey… I think it's them!" Yuki replied, eyes filled with fear. Joey turned to Jenny, the same expression painted across his face.

"Let's go," Jenny said, standing up. She and her friends followed Yuki outside the shop.

"I wanna see what's happening!" Darcey said, standing up to follow as well, along with Jane, Ian, and Erik. Thor hesitated before running after them.

Everyone ran down the street, some running faster than others. They came across a tall building with strange men jumping about, as if they were looking for something.

"Do you think it's The Titans?" Yuki asked, turning to Jenny.

"It can't be…" Jenny huffed, catching her breath. "The Titans are all in jail, and Cyclops is dead… and their clothing… it's… it's not…"

"It's not of this realm." Thor finished her sentence, stepping forward.

"What are you guys talking about?" Jane asked, standing behind Jenny.

"I'm sorry Jane," Jenny turned to her friend. "I'll have to explain later." With that, she put her motorcycle helmet on and ran towards the building.

"Jenny?!" Jane shouted.

Suddenly, Jenny's friends also ran forward. Summer's red hair seemed to catch fire. Her red boots also were caught aflame, and then she flew upwards, flames shooting out of her hands. Marina suddenly seemed to melt into what looked like a human made of water. She too rushed forward, creating small waves wherever she went. Small roots surrounded Chijo as he ran. With the wave of his hand, he could tie and pin the strange men down with these roots. Joey jumped higher than what would be normal for a human. He could control strong winds and knock people down. Yuki rushed forward with a large sword.

It took Jane a while to realize she was staring at a team of super heroes. She wasn't sure if she was believing what she was seeing. Thor however, was beaming with excitement. He watched as Jenny fought these men with agility, speed, and strength… who knew one so small could be so strong?

Thor finally ran forward to their aid as well, unable to resist joining in the battle. He was instantly by Jenny's side, fighting along with his new friend.

"Not cut out to be an Avenger, huh?" Thor asked.

"Okay!" Jenny snapped. "The truth is, I don't want to leave my team!"

"We're not asking you to leave your team, my friend." Thor replied.

"I… I'm not strong enough." Jenny said before jumping on a man and dislocating his shoulder.

"The cry of pain from your enemy says otherwise." Thor stated.

"Ugh!" Jenny rolled her eyes. She noticed Jane running towards them. "What is she doing?!"

"Sometimes, she likes to be close to the action." Thor said casually.

"No, this can't happen!" Jenny ripped off her helmet. She ran towards Jane and stopped one of the men from stabbing her friend. Thor looked up and noticed a bright light in the sky… it seemed to glimmer different colors.

Some of the villains and Jenny's friends were working their way towards a particular spot. Thor could sense what was happening.

"Everyone!" Thor ran forward, but found himself being surrounded by color. He was too late at this point, he and many others had been pulled into the Bifrost.

"Ugh…" Joey winced. He had been thrown onto the ground by some force. He slowly sat up, grunting in pain. "What happened?"

Yuki had also been lying on the ground by Joey's side. He helped her to her feet. They were still in Manhattan, but…

All the strange men had disappeared. There was a large, patterned circle on the ground.

"Uh… what happened?" Yuki asked, looking down at the circle.

"Jane?" Erik called out, walking forward as well. "Darcey?"

"Darcey?" Ian walked around, eyes filled with despair.

"What happened?!" Joey repeated, this time sounding impatient.

Erik looked down at the circle, and then looked up at the sky before he answered. "They've been pulled into the Bifrost…" He gasped.

"The what?" Yuki asked, tilting her head.

"The gateway to Asgard." Erik replied, still looking at the sky.

Dun, dun, dun! They've disappeared! I hope you enjoyed. Leave a review!

Fun fact: Jenny's mother was diagnosed with a brain tumor and her doctor actually recommended living somewhere she always wanted to go. She took Jenny with her so she could spend time with her daughter as well.
