Thor arrives back in the Bifrost room where Heimdal and a group of healers are waiting.

"My king, I saw Lady Charlotte condition and thought she might need the healer's aid."

"She certainly does. Thank you my friend."

Thor lays Charlotte on the floating stretcher and the group heads to the palace. When they arrive at the healing room, Frigga is there to greet them.

"My son, you have finally returned."

"Mother, how is he?"

"Loki is still hanging in there. Thor what is wrong with Lady Charlotte?" Frigga approaches Charlotte and touches her face.

"She looks so...fragile."

"Mother, she took Loki's death very hard. Her brother and friend are very concerned for her. She refused to leave with me. They had to put her to sleep so I could bring her here." The healers pick up Charlotte and transfer her to the bed beside Loki.

"Mother, when I first saw her, she was talking to Loki. She was convinced he was there with her on Midgard."

"I see, their bond is more powerful then I thought. We must work quickly."

Frigga gets up and goes in between both beds. She grabs Loki's and Charlotte's hands hand links them together in her own.

"I must connect their minds. They must know that they are together. It's the only way to save them both. The power of there bond will heal them, I just hope they know what to do."

Frigga starts to chant and is joined by the other healers in the room. Thor kneels down beside his mother and prays to the Norms.

In Loki and Charlotte's minds

"Darling? Is that you?" Loki wakes up and looks around. He seems to be in his chambers. He looks out the window to the balcony to see the beautiful sky of Asgard. The sun is setting and the sky is a mix of oranges, yellows and purples. Standing at the edge of the balcony Charlotte is dressed in a beautiful flowing green gown. She turns around and her green eyes light up.

"Loki" she whispers and runs into his arms.

"You're alive!" They look into each other's green eyes.

"Your eyes??"

"Charlotte, Darling, I remember, I remember everything and that is why my eyes have returned to their true colour. The spell is broken."

"Oh, Loki, I'm so happy for you. But Love, what's going on? Last thing I remember I was at home in my room and you were dead."

"Darling. I am not dead, at least I don't think I am, but I'm not sure what is going on. I believe we are in a dream of some kind. I can feel a powerful force but I'm not sure where it's coming from." Charlotte grab his face with her hands and give him a deep kiss. She releases him and smiles.

"At this point, I don't care, you are here and you are holding me. I love you Loki."

"Oh my Darling, I love you also." He leans his forehead against hers.

"But my sweet, we must be here for a reason. I feel like we are meant to do something so we can get back to our Families."

"Oh, but I want to stay here with you forever." Charlotte pouts.

"I know, my heart, but we cannot stay here forever, look." He points to the sky and she see that the colour is starting to fade.

"I'm afraid we might not have much time to figure it out."
