The group were on the airstrip on the top of the helicarrier, as small civilian craft was moved onto the runway.
The T.A.R.D.I.S. had long since left, Pencil and Architect took it towards the town that Joe bought, getting it set up as the Headquarters for Black Ink in this dimension.
Loki and the kids would arrive as soon as Kara and Wanda were ready.
Joe himself was playing with a Yo-Yo and a slinky, with Stark, Banner and Thor staring at him, open-mouthed.
The original device designed to send Thor and Loki to Asgard was a single two handled coupling containing the Tessaract with minimal circuitry basically a minimal grade guidance system.
Since the others had decided to come the Tessaract had been installed into a small airplane that was purchased and modified, which included a special form of self oxidizing fuel and an air supply.
As well as a self destruct feature.
As the group of seven individuals entered, they saw the inside of the craft, the walls were laced with circuitry glowing a mild blue and there were five seats in the Back, Kara and Joe, with their flight experience were chosen as the pilots.
The aircraft taxied along the runway, and about 500 meters away from the Helicarrier the exhaust of the engines began to glow blue, the jet suddenly accelerating before it vanished releasing a shockwave of glowing blue light.
As the aircraft appeared in the skies above Asgard, Joe and Kara began to pilot it towards the bridge that was all that was left of the Bifrost. Using it like a runway, the pair landed the plane, skimming just above Heimdal's head.
The landing was smooth, only a few bumps and they settled the door opening and the stairs folding out.
Thor was the first out, followed by Loki, Tim, Raven and wanda, Kara grabbed the homing Beacon for the T.A.R.D.I.S. and the tessaract. She and Joe exited.
As he got off the jet, Heimdal's eyes widened, "I… Could not see him!" he mumbled.
Kara primed the jet's self-destruct before throwing it away from the bridge.
The explosion buffeted them even at that distance.
The explosion was noticed by Odin who came to the bifrost as fast as he could.
Joe who was waiting at the gates looked at him in distaste, allowing himself one final scan of the Tessaract with his magic before he turned to Odin.
"I am unsure of wether I should give this to you."
"WHAT!" Odin screamed in rage.
"SILENCE! I am a keeper of the balance! And with your actions more than a million deaths have come before their time!" As he raged a black aura began to grow around Joe, creeping along the ground
"HOW DARE YOU BLAME ME FOR LOKI'S ACTIONS!"
"YOU IMBECILE! Loki has been more severely treated by Thor than he would have had he been raised by Frost Giants, and you did nothing to help him! Frigga At least showed some compassion!"
The Aura began to grow opaque and the only thing anyone could see were the glowing green light from his eyes.
Gungnir seemed to be straining away from Odin.
"He has saved your kingdom three times over! You should be on your knees thanking him! You should learn humility Odin!"
The only thing holding the Black Taint from Odin was Gungnir. And all of a sudden the spear broke itself from Odin's grip and the spear flew surprisingly into Frigga's grasp.
"I have been studying this just for this you know. The Markings of Arhimain, they can reduce the power of any being to nothing!"
And with that the Blue barrier around Odin failed and he was covered in the black and red markings.
"I send you to learn a lesson and for years forty and six your powers shall be bound you shall live as but a man, in your place your wife shall rule for The Mother must tend to her Children."
And Odin vanished in a bright blue light.
Turning to the asgardian behind him he spoke again the power fading from the air around him, "Loki, I heard you talking with Kara, Wanda and the others, If you do wish to join us, we will not stop you, however no matter you choice I am giving the transcript of the interrogation, I dare say that this information will have the minds of Asgard changed about you."
Loki asked to ponder the choice for a while though the scroll was given to Frigga as well as a single vial of veritaserum, as an offering to the mother goddess.
Raven was invited to the library and Sif escorted a giggling Wanda and Kara around was bored, after Banishing Odin to Sri Lanka, He did not have much to do, he had spent some time seeing the sights but nothing much had interested him.
Spotting the library he wandered in, inconspicuously making copies of the books he did not have, nearly tripling his collection.
He saw Raven reading up on some old books, and tagged them with a copy spell as well before sending the bag of books to Black Island via Zippo.
Joe was about to leave the market when he saw one final shop.
Walking in he looked around before he saw the shopkeeper.
"In this dimension too?"
"Yep!" he remarked before dumping a large pile of books, scrolls as well as a specific one that detailed advanced mind arts including telekinesis.
"I also have some armour that you could use, though it will take a while for them to be fitted."
Having long since learned not to resist he accepted the offer and after being measured, began to read the scroll, he had managed to levitate small marbles around his hand by this point but not much more.
By then The Shopkeeper came out with the adjusted armour, placing it on a stand, the armour was mostly Basilisk hide but had a layer of moulded mithril plated covered it. The mithril was stained to give it a gunmetal hue.
It also included a hooded overcoat with an obscuring charm over his face and the coat itself made from the shed hide of Jormungandr, one of Loki's experiments as a child, the snake was well over a thousand years old, the oldest Basilisk in existence.
The cloak was so powerful because any magic that was used on it just made it stronger.
The outfit also came with boots two bandoliers a belt, as well as as a large supply of pouches and skins.
His gauntlets had also been modified. Previously the piece of armour were simply enchanted gloves made in the same style as plate armour. Needless to say they were completely re-constructed.
The new gauntlets reached to his mid forearms, the inside was lined with basilisk skin, however it was the outside that was changed the most.
The previous thin metal plating was now changed, now it featured thick segmented and specially articulated five millimeters thick and absolutely encrusted with runes his gloves not only stored weapons but could be linked to a room to summon any object within said room instantly.
He had of course set up the linking rooms in his library back on black island. He had also tasked the professor with providing Hermione with a remote that would allow her to travel to the past.
He was planning to give her the chance to create a copy of every book in existence for his library.
Should he really let a WPMD (Walking Person of Mass Destruction) mess around with the timelines… in a single dimension?
Nah, he should do it in multiple dimensions because who could leave a resource like that untapped.
The project, and the massive supply of elixir of life prepared for her to allow her to complete her task was still in progress, though it would be done within the next few months.
In fact, the Architect had called the project his greatest creation, the entrance was a portal to a dimension utterly devoid of life, which Joe had bought, the coordinates to it were put under fedelius so no-one would find it.
Finished his shopping he ambled of, this time finding himself in the in the training grounds.
