Starks Goddess {3}

Thirty-Three

Nat hit the ground hard, and rolled, ending up on her back with the wind knocked from her. That was not comfortable, fun or something she ever wanted to do again. It was so fucking terrifying, thinking she was going to fall through the flashing lights thing that had sucked them through the crack of the cave. One minute they were in Scotland, the next they were here.

'Oh, I will be committing this moment to memory..'.. She turned her head to Loki, who inhabited Tonys body, seeing him grin with his hands on his hips... 'This is quite amusing to see you all in this condition..'

She heard someone throw up, and turned her head the other way, seeing Sams ass three feet away, as he was on his hands and knees, emptying the contents of his stomach. Pulling a face, she pushed herself up to sit... 'I did tell you not to eat on the jet..'.. She shook her head, and a hand appeared in front of her face, Bruce there to help her up. Taking it, she got to her feet, still feeling a little unsteady.

'I was hungry..'.. She heard Sam grumble, and he dropped back to sit on his knees, taking deep breaths.

'Once this is all over, you are welcome to have a feast fit for royalty..'.. Loki chuckled, seeing them all look a little worse for wear... 'I did warn you, that it would leave you a little..'.. He waved a hand.

'Yeah yeah, we get it..'.. Steve held up his own hand at him.

'This is beautiful..'.. They all turn, and see Wanda, standing close to the edge of a cliff face. Right in front of them, was the crystal waters of Asgard, and in the distance they could see the bridge. To the left, they could see the palace and the city stretched out before it.

'How long will it take us to get there?..'.. Steve turned to Loki.

'Depending on your pace, an hour..'.. Loki tells him.

'What if I take you, one at a time?..'.. Pietro asks... 'You first, you can show me where to go, and I can come back for the others..'

'You'll tire yourself out..'.. Wanda takes his arm, as he leads her from the edge.

'It is quicker, if I take you all, no?..'.. Pietro looks around at them.

'I can use this suit..'.. Loki gestured to himself... 'To fly there, and that one..'.. He nods to Vision... 'We can cause the distraction, but I recommend..'.. Loki looked towards the palace... 'There. Do you see that tower, separate from the palace?..'

'Yes..'.. Pietro nodded.

'Take them there. There is a servants entrance that will lead you into the kitchens. Take the stairs in the middle, and up. You will come to the main banquet hall. Through the large doors, take left then right, you will come to the throne room. That is where they are..'.. Loki looks around at them... 'Whatever you do, please keep them alive, I do not wish to remain as Stark for the rest of my life..'

'Servants kitchen, middle stairs, banquet hall, large doors, left, right, throne room..'.. Nat ticked them off... 'Sound right to you?..'

'Yes. I can only hope Thor is with them. You..'.. Loki pointed to Pietro and Wanda... 'There are those loyal to Thor, they are down in the dungeons, if you can get there, then with your magic..'... He nods to Wanda... 'You can break the cells holding them. Lady Sif, Fandral, Volstagg and Hogan. Tell them you have come to aid Thor, you are the Avengers, they will fight at your side to join the others..'
