Chapter 20

We took the Prince back to Fury's base and Rocket took off for the Guardian's ship. I gave him a note to give to my dad for him to know about what's been happening to my life and thank for the gift he gave me this past Christmas. Harley had left for his actual job.

"Please, please, please," Oliver whined beside me as we walk inside Fury's base.

"I can't Oliver," I said, not up with his baby whining. "You have to go back to Hogwarts already. We can't go around and risk your life. You saw what happened on the planet."

"We're not going to fight, obviously. We're just going to go around like, let's say, locals in this world. It'll be fun."

"Oliver..." I stopped and looked at him, pressing my lips together. He looked at me with a small smile and pleading eyes. He had been asking about the world that I live in and having such curiosity about it. He raised both eyebrows with a growing smile, knowing he's getting to me. I rolled my eyes and dropped my crossed arms.

"Fine," I grumbled. "But only for a day."

"24 hours, no sleep. I'm good with that," He says triumphally, putting an arm around my shoulder and continuing to walk.

"As long as there are no Lurkers," I said, turning a corner.

"You can handle them," He joked.

After getting the update about the Crux situation, I met Oliver by the landing where one of the quinjets was docked for us to use. He looked at me weirdly when I sat at the pilot's seat, him sitting beside me.

"You know how to fly one?" He asked when I started pressing buttons.

"No," I smirked. "But I know how to set course and set it on autopilot."

We left Fury's Base and were on the clouds in no time. We talked about all the places and things we wanted to do. He wanted to experience snow here but I told him that it was literally March, the snow would be at the top of Canada or Antarctica. Then he also wanted to experience sand and the warm sun. Maybe even watch an actual muggle game than Quidditch.

"But before we all do that, I have a place in my head I want you to see first," I said, handing him a tetra pack drink from the back of the ship. He took it without question and drank it.

"Where exactly?" He asked, sipping on the straw.

"Where I stay when I'm here."

We arrived on New Asgard's land, a little aerial view of the whole place for Oliver before descending on the fields. He excitedly exits the jet, giving a little skip while I laugh at his childishness.

"This is where you stay?!" He asked, waving his hands around and taking in the fresh air.

I finished my tetra pack drink and laughed. "Yes. This is New Asgard. My home here on Earth 616."

"Is it like New Zealand, that's why it's called New Asgard?" He asked as we made our way through the field towards the heart of the town.

I shook my head, walking beside him. "There was actually a real Asgard. The original one got blown up by this fire monster that had to be ignited to take down my aunt. Yeah, my family's crazy. After all, they sent the youngest to another world."

He laughed, "When can I meet any of them? Well, aside from your aunt, I guess."

I pursed my lips, thinking. "Well, I have a few people I want you to meet right now."

We walked across town, a few of the other Asgardians giving me weird looks to who is the guy I have brought along. They're not used to strangers coming around in this part of the world. Right in the heart of the town where there were a few chairs and children playing around was Valkyrie discussing something with two of Asgardians part of the Asgardian government.
