"Now we're going to see a battle between you two?" T'Challa asked Thor and Loki.

"Yes." Thor said, "Unfortunately."

"I am not very proud of my actions." Loki sighed.

"I know." Odinson said.

Sif, Fandrall, Volstagg, Hogun, Erik and Darcy reached the Bifrost site in Erik's van while Thor flew down there with Jane, asking Heimdall to open it. The frozen Heimdall roared as the ice cracked more.

"Good thing you underestimated the guy." Tony said dryly.

"Yeah, saved the Nine Realms a lot of trouble." Storm said.

"Many things happen for reason, I guess." Logan said.

Thor continued calling out to him as the others walked closer when Heimdall broke free and swiftly dispatched the two Giants before twisting Hofund, opening the Bifrost.

Everyone sighed in relief.

"Thank God for Heimdall." Steve said.

"Good thing he recovered when he did." Natasha agreed.

Thor and the others watched as the Bifrost came down. Thor told Jane he was going back to Asgard for now but he will return to her. Kissing her hand, he asked, "Deal?" She pulled him into a deep passionate kiss.

Everyone clapped and cheered at the scene.

"Finally!" Scott laughed.

"Looks like you kids love shipping." Pepper said and everyone chuckled.

"Yeah, Scott's a kid at heart." Hope said and he gave her a mock glare, "I dig it."

Everyone laughed more.

"Well, glad I managed to entertain." Thor said with a laugh.

"You still do." Benjamin said as Odinson chuckled.

The two pulled away and Jane said, "Deal." Thor, Sif, Fandrall, Volstagg and Hogun then walked into the Bifrost and reached Asgard, where Thor told his friends to get Heimdall to the healing room and leave Loki to him. The door to Odin's bedchambers froze and broke down as a Frost Giant walked inside. Frigga dispatched him effortlessly but Laufey had been behind the Giant, waiting to strike at the right moment. Before Frigga could even react, he knocked her down.

"Bastard." Thor snarled.

"Oh don't worry. I took care of him." Loki sighed, "Though I'm not very proud of what I did during this time."

"I know." Odinson sighed.

"So what is your plan exactly?" Pepper asked.

"Keep watching." Bobbi said.

As Thor flew towards the palace, Laufey opened Odin's eye and said how he had heard Odin could sense everything transpiring around him. "I hope it's true." Laufey said as he brandished an ice dagger, "So that you may know, your death came at the hand….of Laufey." Just before he could bring it down, a blast hit him and he was sent flying off. It was Loki. "And your death came by the son of Odin." Loki said as Laufey watched in horror and betrayal before he fired another blast from Gungnir, disintegrating Laufey.

"Once again proving yourself to be a two-faced traitor huh." Fury said dryly.

"No wonder you played us all against us." Hill said.

"I'll take that as a compliment." Loki said dryly.

"So you two are going to fight now?" Peter asked.

"Yes they are." Daisy said before they could reply, "And it won't be pretty."

"I can only imagine." Aunt May said.

"I can relate." T'Challa said, "A little."

Frigga hugged Loki for saving Odin as he said the Frost Giants will pay when Thor arrived. An overjoyed Frigga hugged him as he glared at Loki, daring him to tell the truth that he had sent the Destroyer to kill him and his friends, shocking Frigga.

"Busted." Hope smirked.

"I think it is your favorite word." Scott said and she chuckled.

"Yeah, she has said it a lot." Bucky agreed.

"By my calculations, she has only used it four times." Vision said.

"Wow you must be really fun at parties." Sam said dryly and everyone laughed.

"What do you see in this guy, Wanda?" Rhodes asked her dryly before saying to Vision, "No offense."

"None taken, Colonel." Vision said.

Wanda suddenly realized she didn't have an answer to the question.

"I have no idea." She sighed. What no one knew was that this one joke question had made her start thinking about her relationship with Vision more deeply.

"Now we're going to fight." Loki said.

"Don't worry, I have forgiven you." Thor said.

"Yes I have." Odinson said.

"Doesn't mean it's easy to watch." Loki said and Thor put a hand on his shoulder to provide support.

Loki tried to lie, saying the Destroyer was enforcing Odin's last command but Thor was having none of it.

"Still trying to lie to save your ass huh." Bruce said and Loki sighed.

"It's what I do." Loki said.

"You play the game really well." Scott said and everyone chuckled again.

"Yes, you were a two faced traitor so you played the game really well." Fury agreed and everyone chuckled.

"I did, didn't I?" He said dryly.

Loki said he had to destroy Jotunheim and blasted Thor with Gungnir, sending him flying out as he rode towards Heimdall's Observatory.

"So that was your plan?" Natasha asked.

"Yes." Loki said.

"Have the Giants try to kill Odin, then betray and kill them instead before using it as an excuse to destroy Jotunheim." Steve realized and everyone paled.

"You were one sick bastard, you know that?" Daisy asked and he shook his head.

"I was." Loki said, "I am not anymore."

"We know you are not anymore." Bobbi said.

"Must be hard to watch." Logan said.

"Very." He told him.

"Don't worry, we're watching it with you." Thor said.

Loki used Gungnir to open the Bifrost again before using the Casket's power to freeze its powers, directing them at Jotunheim as Thor flew and stopped near him. Loki told him he couldn't stop it as the Frost Giants ran around on Jotunheim in fear while their lands were destroyed. Erik, Jane and Darcy watched the Bifrost in action from Earth in horror.

"Oh no!" Steve said in horror.

"They're dying like flies hit by a spray." Wanda said.

"What did I do?" Loki said in shame as he saw them running for their lives. While they weren't a benevolent race, they didn't deserve to be wiped out like this.

"You were too blind to see you were wrong." Thor told him.

"I was." He agreed.

"And you thought this was the right thing to do when it wasn't." Odinson said.

"Yes. And I am truly sorry for everything I have done." He said in shame.

"Sorry won't be enough, bub." Logan told him, "But you will have to prove yourself when we send you lot back."

"I will." He said sincerely.

Thor tried to smash the ice but Loki blasted him away with Gungnir. Thor asked why he was doing this and he said he was doing this to prove he was the worthy son. When Odin would wake, Loki would have saved his life and destroyed the race of monsters, which will make him true heir to the throne. "You can't kill an entire race!" Thor told him. Loki asked why Thor had such newfound love for the Frost Giants as he could have killed them all with his bare hands.

"It is called empathy." Thor said and Loki nodded.

"We hope you're learning something." Daisy said and he nodded.

"Yes. I am." Loki said.

Thor said he had changed and Loki said he had too before striking Thor's face, asking him to fight. When Thor didn't, Loki hit him again and he was sent back.

"Why aren't you fighting him?" Peter asked.

"Because he is his brother." Aunt May said.

"And even if he has betrayed them all, he still cares about his brother." Wanda said and Peter nodded.

Thor started getting up as Loki said he never wanted the throne. He only wanted to be Thor's equal. "I will not fight you, brother!" Thor said. "I'm not your brother. I never was." Loki snarled. "Loki, this is madness!" Thor said. "Is it madness?" Loki asked, "Is it? Is it?" He asked Thor if the woman on Earth had turned him soft. Seeing his expression, he realized she had and said after this was over, he would pay her a visit himself.

"Bad idea, bub." Logan said.

"Real power if full of them." Fury said dryly.

"THIS-IS-ASGARD!" Scott said in reference to 300 due to Thor's 'this is madness' line, only to see everyone glaring at him.

"Just trying to lighten the mood." He said, "You know what? I'm not here. Look at the screen."

Everyone turned back to the screen.

Thor and Loki leapt at each other and he pinned Loki down before being kicked away. Loki tried to bring Gungnir down on him but he tripped him before trying to hit him with Mjolnir but Loki blocked with Gungnir and kicked him away. Mjolnir and Gungnir clashed twice before Loki pushed Thor down and leapt at him with the raised Gungnir before Thor blocked with Mjolnir.

"Oh no!" Aunt May said in shock.

"How did you stop the Bifrost?" Pepper asked.

"Keep watching." Thor, Loki, Odinson, Benjamin, Logan, Storm, Bobbi and Daisy said simultaneously, causing them all to chuckle a little in spite of the situation.

"Now that's how you lighten the mood." Hope told Scott and they both chuckled.

Thor tried to hit Loki but he avoided before using Gungnir as a lever, kicking Thor away with a laugh. Their weapons clashed again before Thor elbowed Loki and threw him off. Loki tried to fire a blast from Gungnir as Thor leapt at him and both crashed out of the Observatory onto the Bifrost and Loki rolled over the bridge, clinging to the edge, begging Thor to save him. As Thor tried to save him, he disappeared, revealing himself to be an illusion as the real Loki hit Thor from behind with a blast from Gungnir at point blank range, sending him down.

"Are you ever not going to fall for that?" Loki asked dryly.

"I didn't the last time you did it." Thor said and Loki's smirk vanished.

"Always nice to one up you." Odinson said with a smirk.

"Always nice to see it happening." Fury said dryly.

"You should have been there when I one-upped him." Tony said and everyone chuckled.

"I am sure we will see that." Loki said.

"We will." Benjamin said.

"Awesome." Tony said.

Many Lokis appeared as Thor roared, "Enough!" He slammed Mjolnir down and the impact sent the real Loki flying off as the illusions disappeared. To prevent Loki from getting up, Thor put Mjolnir on him. Loki tried to get up but couldn't due to the hammer on him.

"Oh boy!" Natasha said, failing to suppress her chuckle in spite of the situation.

"And that is why Thor is smarter than people give him credit for." Bruce said.

"I know." Daisy said.

"Yes, you have brains." Bobbi said too.

"Thanks." Thor and Odinson said simultaneously.

"This is embarrassing." Loki said and everyone chuckled at him.

Thor moved towards the observatory as Loki said he couldn't stop it. Seeing no other choice, Thor summoned Mjolnir to him and started smashing the Bifrost while Odin's eye opened.

"And that's the moment the old man wakes up." Tony said dryly.

"You both were creating a huge ruckus." T'Challa said dryly.

"Why did you decide to destroy the Bifrost?" Vision asked.

"Because that's what heroes do." Thor said as him and Odinson shared a look.

Loki told Thor he would never see Jane again if he destroyed the Bifrost.

"Low blow Reindeer Games." Tony said.

"Well what do you expect?" Loki sighed.

"Forgive me, Jane." Thor said as he leapt at the Bifrost with Mjolnir raised as Loki leapt at him with Gungnir but Thor smashed the Bifrost hard with Mjolnor, destroying it as an explosion of light engulfed the space around Asgard while Heimdall's Observatory died down.

"Oh boy!" Steve said.

"This is something." Bucky said.

Thor and Loki were both falling as Gungnir found itself in Thor's hand while Loki grabbed it to save himself and Odin grabbed Thor's leg.

"Just in time." Storm said.

"Yup." Odinson agreed.

Loki told Odin how he could have done it for all of them but Odin simply said, "No Loki." Loki looked at them both and in spite of Thor's protests, let Gungnir go as Thor screamed, "NOOOOOOOO!"

Thor and Odinson turned away from the screen with sadness in their eyes as Loki said, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, bub." Logan said as he put a hand on Odinson's shoulder, "He knows he was wrong."

"I know." Odinson said.

"Doesn't make it easier to watch." Steve said with sympathy.

Loki fell into an abyss, being sucked in by the wormhole created by the Bifrost's destruction as Thor and Odin watched in despair.

"I'm sorry." Steve said to them all and they nodded in acknowledgement.

"I don't even know what to say about this." Wanda said.

"Let's just say our family is…..complicated." Thor said.

"That doesn't even begin to cover it." Rhodes said.

"Damn right." Fury said.

On Earth- Erik, Jane and Darcy watched sadly as the Bifrost was gone. Erik and Darcy walked back towards the van. Jane looked down sadly and walked back too.

"Heartbreaker." Tony said and Pepper smacked his arm.

"Be nice." She said.

"I know." Thor sighed.

"Love is a complicated thing." Bruce told him.

"Yes." Steve agreed.

Days later, there was a feast on Asgard as Volstagg narrated how he had laid the Destroyer low and everyone laughed while Fandrall said he had fallen on his ass.

Everyone laughed at Volstagg's tale.

"He is a good story-teller." Steve said.

"Just wait till you meet Luis." Scott said and Hope started laughing.

"I miss him." Thor said, "I miss all of them."

"Me too." Loki said.

"I wish we could change everything but alas." Odinson said.

Thor walked past the table as Sif watched him in concern. Thor exchanged a loving look with his mother as they held hands before moving away as Sif walked up to Frigga and apologized for her loss. Frigga patted Sif's shoulder as she inquired about Thor. Frigga said Thor mourned for Loki and missed the mortal.

"You know, it's not my place to say, but I think she is into you." Daisy said as Thor's eyes widened.

"Yes, it has been years and now I realize she had feelings for me all the time." Odinson said.

"Oh no!" Thor said with a wide eye as everyone chuckled at his expression.

"Oh she absolutely had a thing for you, brother." Loki said, "I still can't believe you failed to see it."

"I am dumb." Thor realized.

"No. Just not the smartest." Bruce said and everyone chuckled.

"It's never too late." Bobbi said.

"She is right." Odinson said and Thor considered.

Thor walked up to Odin who told him he would be a wise king but Thor said there would never be a wiser king than Odin or a better father and he would make him proud. Odin turned around and putting a hand on Thor's shoulder, told him he already had.

"You were brave and selfless, Thor." Steve said and he nodded in appreciation.

"That is high praise coming from you, Captain." Thor said.

"If the Bifrost is destroyed, how did you return to Earth a year later?" Clint asked.

"Father used dark magic to send me." Odinson said.

Thor walked up to Heimdall, asking if Earth was lost to them as he said there was always hope. Thor asked if he could see her, to which he chuckled and replied yes.

"That's like asking me if I'm a good archer." Clint said.

"Or asking me if I'm good with tech." Tony said and everyone chuckled.

On Earth- Erik, Jane and Darcy were shown working as Thor asked how she was and Heimdall said she searched for him. Jane looked up and smiled and at the same time, Thor smiled. The screen went black.

"What a coincidence." Tony said.

"Love works in strange ways." Aunt May said.

"All right, one more scene before this ends." Benjamin said.

"Let's see what that's about." Loki said.

Erik walked around in a SHIELD facility as a familiar voice called out to him.

"Look who it is." Hill said cheerfully.

"And you were accusing me of invading other people's recordings." Tony said dryly and everyone chuckled.

"Yeah, I know. I'm a hypocrite." Fury said with a chuckle.

"So we are watching this." Loki realized.

"I guess you had something to do with this." Thor said.

"Yup." Loki said.

Erik realized Fury was the one behind all of this and said the place was like a labyrinth, joking that he had thought he had been brought down there to be killed. Fury said he had heard about the New Mexico situation and Erik's work had impressed a lot of people smarter than him. Erik said he had a lot to work with, including the Foster Theory.

"They named a theory after her?" Bucky asked in shock.

"Yes." Thor and Odinson said at the same time with pride.

"Best way to put a mark on the scientific community, have a theory named after you." Tony said and everyone chuckled.

"I wish I could do that." Peter said.

"You will, Peter, one day." Aunt May said before looking at Benjamin, "Has anything like that happened?"

"Not yet. Sorry." Benjamin said and she shook her head.

"Legend tells us one thing, history another. But every now and then, we find something that belongs to both." Fury said as he opened a box to reveal a glowing cube inside it as Erik watched with wide eyes.

"Oh boy!" Bucky said.

"So this is what it was about." Natasha said.

"Yes, Agent Romanoff." Fury said.

"I remember that." Clint said.

"Of course you would." Hill told him.

"The Teserract." Steve breathed.

"A pain in our ass." Tony said.

"Yes it really was." Thor agreed.

"Sorry." Loki said.

"Well, we did do something about it in the end." Bruce said.

"Yup." Tony said.

Erik asked what it was and Fury said it was unlimited power if they figured out how to tap it. That was when Loki's reflection was seen in the mirror alongside Erik.

"What?" Pepper asked in shock.

"Yes, it's me." Loki said.

"Oh boy!" Scott said as he shook his head.

"Well, I guess that's worth a look." Loki smirked. "Well, I guess that's worth a look." Erik smiled.

"So you're influencing him already?" Hope asked and Loki nodded.

"And that is the end of this." Logan said.

"So next is…." Daisy trailed off.

"Captain America!" Bobbi said with a smile.

"Yes!" Daisy said before turning to Steve, "I'm a huge fan."

"Thank you." He said, feeling flattered.

"So now it's time for you to shine, huh." Tony said.

"We need to see that." Fury said.

"Yup. Can't wait." Hill said.

"I guess I am in it too." Bucky said.

"You are." Storm said.

"So are you in it too?" Tony asked Logan.

"Nope." Logan said, "We cut out my part because it made it too long."

"Oh!" Peter said.

"I want to see it." Scott said.

"Of course you do." Hope said as everyone chuckled.

"Well." Benjamin said, "Let's get started."
