Mirabella Odinsdottir

27- Clean up

Finally we came to a stop and Thor landed rather clumsily and I couldn't help but let out a small squeal in pain. "Apologies sister but you never would have agreed had I told you" He then quietly laughed to himself, "You know you can open your eyes now" As I did so Thor gently placed me down on the floor of what I could now see was Stark's tower. "No, no, no, no, no, no. I am not staying here" I lightly struggled and I was placed down but clearly it made no difference.

"Stay here until we can get you some help"

"I do not need help brother, I am fine, honestly, now stop being such a drama queen and let me up"

"Well if you are fine then we can simply help you after, quite the battle mark I shall give you that sister" With that my eldest brother took off, most likely going back to help the Captain. I knew fine well that I wouldn't be able move and Odin above it truly did hurt, however, the one thing I hated more than my Father. Sorry that's not the right phrase, the one thing I hated more than anything in the nine realms was playing the damsel in distress. Now being of absolutely no use whatsoever I decided to take the ear piece out, there was nothing I could do to help so there was no point in worrying over anything that was happening outside.

However apparently fate itself would not allow me to have a mere minute to myself. I heard a thud outside, however elected to ignore it. That was until I heard a loud roar and then the crashing of glass. A few feet away from me I saw my brother being thrown into wall by the Hulk. Perfect, because how couldn't this situation get any worse? Smell the sarcasm?

I slowly and painfully shuffled myself up the stairs, away from both my brother and the Hulk towards Tony's mini bar. "Enough! You are, all of you, beneath me! I am a god you dull creature, and I will not be bullied by..." However Loki was cut off by the Hulk grabbing him and quite frankly bashing him off the floor as if he were a rag doll.

When the Hulk was finished with Loki he began walking away and taunted, "Puny god" If I wasn't still positively terrified of him after the helicarrier incident I would have laughed. Once the Hulk had left I clumsily stumbled over towards Loki hissing in pain as I lay myself down next to him. "Recognitive calibration working yet?" I asked as I turned my head to the left look at my brother. He simply turned his head to look at me with a face full of confusion. I sighed and rephrased myself, "Did that knock the shit that was filling your head out or do I need to do it?"

"Sister!" He scolded and I slightly chuckled, I couldn't help it truly, "Nice to have you back brother" At that we both turned our heads so we were both looking at ceiling.

This was nice. It was just like the day in the gardens all over again. However, all good things must come to an end, so I slowly shuffled away from Loki and sat myself down where Thor had left me before the Hulk incident, "Where may you be going sister?" Loki asked now from a few feet away from me, "Oh Odin forbid anyone finds out I have a pain tolerance" I replied in a mocking tone. Loki began crawling up the stairs and I could faintly see everyone enter the room and held in a chuckle as they positioned themselves menacingly behind my brother. Clearly Agent Barton was getting his revenge as he was positioned directly in front of Loki and had one of his arrows inches away from Loki's face.

"If it's all the same to you, I'll have that drink now"

Stark sighed then added, "All right get him on his feet. We can all stand around posing up a storm later, by the way, feel free to clean up" Clumsily I stood up and made my way over to Thor leaning on his shoulder for balance. "Mira, you should not.." However I cut him off there. "Oh, do you expect me to lie around and wait for help?" I asked mockingly. The Strike team came in and Natasha handed Loki's sceptre over to them. So much for me trying to study and create a replica of it.

Loki's wrists were then placed in chains and the Captain walked past us speaking into his ear piece. "On my way down to coordinate search and rescue" Then Loki made an illusion so that it was no longer him standing before us but the Captain repeating, "On my way down to coordinate search and rescue" Then as if nothing had happened Loki was standing before us again and I burst out into a fit of laughter. This had all earned myself a glare from Thor which subdued my fit of laughter to quiet chuckles. "I mean honestly brother how do you keep your food down?" Loki asked and I burst out into a fit of hysterical laughter this time.

Thor then pulled something from behind his back and pressed a metal contraption across Loki's face to prevent him from talking. "Shut up" He then turned to face me as we began walking to Stark's elevator, "Do not doubt that I have one for you too" He threatened, slowly I began to calm down and took a few deep breaths, "You cannot blame me for laughing brother, I've been surrounded by uninteresting idiots for how long now?" I asked as we entered the elevator along with everyone else.

I noticed Stark look up from where he was sitting on the case with a mockingly hurt expression on his face, or was it actually a hurt expression? I couldn't quite tell. "Oh please Stark, we finished the job, no need to keep up any acts now"

After the Hulk's little tantrum regarding the stairs we began to descend through the floor however there was now an awkward silence in the air and I could feel Clint and Natasha's gaze burning holes in the back of my head. "Oh I was joking! Now Agents Barton and Romanoff if you could stop trying to burn holes into my skull with your eyes it would be much appreciated, thank you" Barton then let out a small chuckle and tried poorly to disguise it as a cough and I could quite literally feel Natasha and Stark smirking at the elevator doors.

For some reason we were to leave midguard in the middle of a bridge, I had no idea why this spot in particular had been chosen but it was a nice back drop for such an event so I didn't question or argue. I walked over the Stark and Banner who were stood next to each other, "Well, em, bye" I said not really knowing what to say. "That's all we're gonna get kid?" Asked Stark. "Would you prefer it if I started crying and hugging you?" I retorted back and Banner let out a small chuckle. "No, despite everything about you I will miss you Stark. You too Dr. Banner, and I hope you enjoy your new ten floors dedicated to research and development when they are all repaired"

I smiled and nodded at the two before walking over to Dr. Selvig, "Once again I am truly sorry about your head, I didn't mean to. Well I suppose I did mean to but you understand my point. I'm sorry" He gave me a brief nod and I smiled back before walking off and holding onto Loki's arm ready for being teleported back. Loki looked down at the contraption the tesseract was now in hesitantly and looked as though he wasn't going to reach for it.

Finally Loki took it but it was Thor who was the one hesitating now. "Oh let's not prolong this, we all know how much I hate it so let's get it over and done with yes?" I asked before Thor gave a brief nod to everyone and turned the handle ninety degrees and off we went, back to Asgard.
