3rd P.O.V
It's the day of Thor's coronation, and everyone is excited, even Loki.
Beth stands by Loki in the crowd, hand in hand as they see Thor strut down the aisle.
The crowd cheers him on, but Thor then goes somber and serious as he approaches the Throne.
Odin tenses slightly as Thor waved discreetly to Beth and Loki in the crowd.
Just as Odin was about to start the ceremony however, the alarm went off.
The warriors three, Sif, the two princes and Beth ran out to see what had happened.
Frost Giants were storming the palace, and the 7 of them prepared to fight them off, when a loud voice called out to them.
"You're not here to kill my people, you fools! You're here for Laufeyson, so take him and go!".
That son of a bitch....Beth thought, turning her attention to Odin who had yelled.
Loki, not understanding what in all of Valhalla was going on, ran straight towards the fight.
Beth grabbed his arm, and put an invisibility spell on him.
"Loki, there here for you, we need either escape and get you to safety or fight".
"What kind of question is that?! We need to fight!", he turned to run away, but she snagged him.
"If you go into that fight, you need to keep the shield up...it's the best way I can protect you.." she conjures up two long daggers, "other than slaughtering them myself. Maintain the shield, it was Odin who let them in".
Loki nods slightly and ran towards the battle.
But, what she didn't tell Loki, is that when an Arc Angel engages in a fight for survival, and her charge needs to be protected, any form of shielding falls.
Loki didn't notice that the warriors three and Sif saw Beth, he didn't notice the pale look of terror then utter fury on Odin.
He didn't notice Thor look at Beth and had shed a white tear.
The fight continues, and as the last frost giant fell, Beth heard Loki cry out.
She whips her head to try and find him.
Odin saw through the shield and stabbed him.
She raced over to him with Thor close on her heels.
They came closer, as they saw Loki fall to his knees, he looked up and horror flashed across his features as they neared him.
Loki shot out his hands, a wave of green and gold came straight towards them, and enveloped them.
The wave shot them back, and they kept falling and landed with a thump.
They were knocked unconscious from the blast and landed on a beach.
Thor awoke first, looked around at their surroundings.
It seemed like they were in a different realm.
He stood up and gently shook Beth awake.
"Beth, we might have a problem".
"Tell me about it..." she groaned, standing up, swaying slightly.
She outstretched her hands, twisted them slightly as they glowed blue.
But nothing happened, she groans and tries again.
Thor watches as no portal appears, and she sighs in defeat.
"His magic is blocking us from returning to Asgard.....or see him, for a year".
Thor's shoulders start to shake, "You mean to tell me that he is trapped on Asgard, and we cannot go to help him for another year?",
he sinks to the ground, knowing that his brother might be dead before the night falls, but he can do nothing about it.
She stands behind him, and touches his shoulder.
"Thor, he will not die, he will be alive until the year is over...that's a promise".
He looked up into the sky, and deep into her eyes.
"How do you know that?".
She picks up her other hand, which glowed green, "He's alive, and he will continue to be, and we will rescue him".
He nodded slowly, "Where are we?", he asked quietly.
She looks around, and sees a city not that far away, seems like there were at a lake, and not a beach.
In the distance, she can see a few tall buildings, including one that had the word Stark on it.
"I think we're in New York, for in better terms, Midgard". She said bluntly, not able to take her eyes off of the building.
"So what now? What's the plan?"Thor asked attentively.
She reactivates the time sliver, "Well, there's two options. I can send you to the future me, where we can save Loki, or you can stay here for one year and relax".
"Wait, I can go forward and help him now?", he asked excitedly.
"Yes, I figured you want to go and help?".
"Yes, yes, send me now, I need to help him!", he yelled, desperation dripping in his features.
"Alright, safe journeys Thor", she said as she opened a green time portal.
"Safe travels for you Lady Beth", he said as he walked through the portal, leaving her alone.
She sighed, opening another portal, walking through and finding Anna, the pure she sent to meet her at her charges home.
With a slow nod,"He's three, and he's had a very bad day, try not to kill anyone when you walk in".
And with that, Anna disappeared, and Beth walked into the mansion.
Walking through the door, a wave of alcohol hit her straight on.
A child cannot live in this, I got to find him.
Walking around the crumpled figure that was supposed to be the father, she went upstairs to find out who else could be in the house.
She went upstairs, passing several maids, who of course, couldn't see her.
So when she stopped at the end of a hallway, to see who she could only assume was the mother, staring at her with tears of joy, she was very confused.
Now keep in mind, Arc Angels in their warrior forms are terrifying, and Beth was no exception.
Golden wings, black armor, scary long sword on her waist, it's a wonder anyone doesn't die of fright.
But this woman, she has a hope in her eyes that made Beth's heart twist painfully.
"Can-can you keep my piccolo meccanico (little mechanic) safe?".
Beth looks into her eyes, "Yes, take me to him".
She turns quickly and leads Beth to a child's bedroom with a metal sign, 'Tony'.
Beth traces the handiwork, "Did he make this?", she asked softly.
The mother nods and opens the door.
Laying face down on the bed was a young boy with brown curls and a lean frame.
"Tony?", Beth calls out quietly, while sitting on the bed, and takes away his physical pain.
But she can't do anything about his mental pain, not yet.
NOW IT'S TIME FOR MY SECOND FAVORITE PERSON........TONY STANK...I MEAN STARK...(jarvis...I said I was sorry....nononon, DUMB-E..put down the fire------).
