Saved (A Loki fanfiction)

Departure to Asgard

The Avengers and Frigga, plus Astryd, we're all packed and ready to go to Asgard. Honestly, Tony didn't like the idea, but he had to something. Loki is in danger, possibly dead, and he is not going to just sit around.

Clint and Natasha didn't know how to feel about this. They didn't particularly mind going to Asgard, but for Loki? They knew it was wrong to think that way, but come on. Can't blame them. When they thought about it, it was also hysterical. S.H.I.E.L.D is probably pulling their hair out looking for Loki.

Bruce and Steve thought the same as Tony. Asgard will be kinda scary at first, but they can't sit back and wait. They just can't!

Frigga and Thor just wanted to get there so they could start their search. Frigga was especially upset. Loki hadn't even given her a glance when they took him away. He eyes were fixed on Astryd.

Astryd.

Astryd wasn't talking to anyone, at first she was ecstatic about going. But how long will the search be? She loves him and needs him. She just wanted him back.

Thor's booming voice brought everyone out of their thoughts. "Heimdall, the gatekeeper, might be able to see."

"The who?" Tony asked.

Frigga began explaining. "The gatekeeper is the man who sees all. He sees if someone will betray Asgard, or if a war is coming. Heimdall, is his name. You will like him. I don't know of anyone who does not."

Everyone nodded in understanding.

They made it to the spot. It was just a plain field. Most likely in the outskirts of New York.

"On a count of three," started Frigga. "Yell Heimdall." She smiled looking at the sky. She counted down and everyone did as they were asked. A loud clack of thunder sounded and the bifrost opened. It looked the same as when Frigga first arrived.

They felt a pull and before they knew it they were in a golden dome room, a man, presumably Heimdall, greeted them. "My queen, Prince Thor." He bowed. "Friends."

Everyone bowed back, not really sure what to do. "So," Tony already wanted to get the point and he hasn't even unpacked yet. "Can you see him?"

Heimdall hesitated. "Yes."

"So you know where he is?" Steve asked.

The dark man with golden eyes frowned. "No. I can only see the premises of which the cell he is in. I can't see anything else. But I must say, find him. I will do all I can. Just find him."

"Since when do seem so concerned for Loki?" Thor asked, slightly irritated. "You thought him a betrayer. Which betrayed me."

"Thor," Frigga warned.

"My queen, it is fine. He is right. But Loki was once my dear friend. We used to sit and watch the stars go by. He would tell me everything during childhood."

"And what did he tell you?" Astryd asked. "He's told me. I wanna know if he always felt the same."

"I'm not at liberty to say. It will be insulting to Prince Thor."

"Just say it Heimdall." Thor urged.

"He was not the one to betray, you were."

"Watch your tongue Heimdall." Thor growled.

"You insist upon that I tell you, then get angry. This is why Loki came to me. Not you."

Thor's anger faultered. "You're right, accept my apologies."

Heimdall nodded. "Of course."

The tension seemed too much and Tony broke it. "Welp, room?" He insisted, looking at Thor.
