We slip through the streets of the celebrating city when we're stopped by Valkyrie. She escorts us through the streets and up to her apartment.

"Look, I've spent years in a haze trying to forget my past. Sakaar seemed like the best place to drink and forget and to die one day." Valkyrie says as we approach the door.

"I was thinking that you drink too much, and that probably was going to kill you." Thor says.

"I don't plan to stop drinking, but I don't want to forget. I can't turn away anymore. So, if I'm gonna to die, well... it may as well be driving my sword through the heart of that murderous hag." I smile at her change of heart.

"Good."

"Yeah. So I'm saying that I wanna be on the team. Has it got a name?" I tilt my head in thought.

"Yeah, it's called the Revengers." I furrow my eyebrows.

"Revengers?"

"Because I'm getting revenge. You're getting revenge. She's getting revenge." Thor turns to Banner. "Do you want revenge?"

"I'm undecided." Banner simply says.

"Okay." Thor says.

"Also, I've got a peace offering." Valkyrie says. The door opens to reveal Loki chained to a chair.

"Surprise." He sings out. Thor throws a bottle at his head and it bounces off.

"Just had to be sure." Thor says. They start discussing the plan to steal the Grandmaster's ship.

...
I'm gonna skip a bit here. We'll pick up where they're about to go through the wormhole
...

We soar through the air as the Grandmaster's Riot Control ships shoot at us. I use my magic to change into my Asgardian armor and I smile at Thor.

"What're you doing?" Banner asks me.

"I'll be back." I tell both him and Thor. I climb up on top of the Grandmaster's ship, The Commodore, and jump off, landing on the Sakaarian ship beside us. I create two golden swords of magic and dig them into the engine. I then use them to cut off the wing and throw it back at another ship. Valkyrie and Thor take out a few more ships. When all the ships are down, the three of us jump back into The Commodore.

"Guys, we're coming up on the Devil's Anus!" Valkyrie tells us. We pass through the wormhole and I immediately fall unconscious.

...

When we wake up, we're in Asgard.

"I never thought I'd be back here." Valkyrie says.

"I thought it'd be nicer. I mean, not that it's not nice. It's just, it's on fire." Banner says. We emerge from the clouds to see Asgard in ruins. The realm looks like a devastated ghost town. Fires burn down the homes, dead soldiers lay everywhere.

"Here, up here in the mountains." Valkyrie says, pointing to the map. "Heat signatures. People clustered together. Hela's coming for them"

"Okay, drop me off at the palace. I'll draw her away from them." Thor says.

"And get yourself killed? Thor, you heard Heimdall." I say.

"The people trapped down there are all that matters. While I'm dealing with Hela, I need you three to help get everyone off Asgard. I won't let you die. We need to have the perfect chance for you to stop her." Thor says to me.

"How the hell are we supposed to get everyone off Asgard?" Valkyrie asks.

"I have a man on the ground." Thor says.
