Nova's P. O. V:

Val calls out as she walks beside a dark haired man with a pen and clipboard, "Miek, we need detailed accounts of all the witnesses. Darryl, get me all the names of the children who've been lost." With a wave of her hand, they go their separate ways.

A woman with dark curly hair goes up to Val and says frantically, "Your Majesty! My daughter's been taken and—"

"And she will be found," Val assures her before turning and seeing two people badly wounded. "Guys! They're bleeding! Get them to the infirmary, now!" Val waves her hand and clicks her fingers. "Darryl!"

"Your Majesty!" Says a man with greying hair who's with another guy with white blond hair. "Shouldn't we start working on a performance in this entire debacle?"

"The people need entertainment," Says the girl with blond hair.

"Particularly now, in times of crisis!"

"Particularly!" Val says nothing as she walks away with an exasperated expression. "I did not hear a no."

"Not did I," Says the man with glasses. They turn and walk through the throng of people. "Asgard. Night."

"Yes!" Agrees the blond man as he grips the other's elbow.

"We open on to sleeping children..."

I was with Jane in front of a brown haired woman who's lost her child and Jane places her hand on the woman's arm comfortingly. In my peripheral vision, I see Thor standing by Korg in the background.

"So that's the ex girlfriend, is it?" Asks Korg as Jane and I glance at him and Thor.

"The old ex girlfriend," Thor agrees slowly.

"Jodi Foster," Mutters Korg as he crosses his arms.

"Jane Foster," Thor amends.

"The one that got away."

"The one that got away," Thor mutters as we return our attention to the woman.

"That means escaped," Says Korg.

"Yeah." Thor nods. "Yeah."

Korg says, "It must be hard to see your ex girlfriend and your ex hammer hanging out and getting on so well. What you up to, bro?"

"Come on! Come to me," Thor whispers. "Come on, Moljnir! Hey! There you are! Hey. I was just calling you."

"We should start an army!" Says a brunette woman, standing on a table.

"With what?!" A grey haired man demands, slapping his palms against his legs. "Half our soldiers are dead!"

"Half our soldiers are always dead!" The woman snaps, slapping her hands against her legs as well in exasperation.

Val says, "Everyone, please go home! I promise you we'll have news soon. We'll find them."

Everyone was getting worked up and shoving each other to the point of two people toppling over.

"ASGARD!!" Thor's voice cuts through the riot and everyone stops to turn to him. People party a way for Thor and Korg waves back a few more before the demigod picks up Stormbreaker and heads down the room. He waves his finger. "My friends, we must not quarrel. Times like this, we need to unite, come together." Here, he clenches a fist for emphasis.

"See what's happening here," Says Thor as he turns around in front of Val, Jane and I. "You're afraid, hm. Scared. Afraid, anxious." Thor holds up a finger. "If we were to find the children we must first look within ourselves... and I'm sorry, Miek, it's very hard to give a rousing speech with the eheheh noise!" Thor whips around to the alien scribbling on a white board. "What are you doing?"
