As soon as we returned home, Ahsoka, Areria, Hilna, Kina, Stass, Piecor, and Padmé were waiting for us in the living room. No doubt that Bunny brought them inside, which I don't mind. Speaking of Bunny, she walked out from the kitchens with a tray of Corellian fried ice cream. My face lit up upon seeing the dessert. It was my favorite Corellian dessert that I had when I was a child. 

"Welcome back Storm!" Bunny exclaimed before placing the tray down on a table. "Would you care for some fried ice cream?"

I nodded. "Yes please." 

After Bunny handed me a piece of fried ice cream, I turned towards Ahsoka, Areria, Hilna, Kina, Stass, Piecor, and Padmé. I wonder if it was just Ahsoka, Areria, Hilna, and Kina who wanted to return with us...or if there were others.

"Is it just you four who wish to join us or was there others?" I inquired.

"I informed Gida and Tarom, however they wish to remain here with their children, and to help Luke with the Jedi Temples." Kina informed me.

"Same thing with Zira, but they all send their farewells." Hilna chimed in.

"Are we going now?" Padmé asked with an impatient tone.

I chuckled. "Yes sweetheart, we're going right now."

At that moment Bunny spoke up. "Am I coming along?"

Before I could say anything, R2 began beeping like crazy, begging me to take Bunny along with us. It wasn't long until I caved in.

"Alright, alright, Bunny you can come with us." I replied.

"Thank you very much, Storm!" Bunny exclaimed.

Loki rolled his eyes. "So is that all then?"

"Yes, that's it." I confirmed.

As soon as we all had gathered our things, I took out the Heart of the Universe and placed it in my hand. I closed my eyes as I visualized Asgard. Alright gem, take us to Asgard but please don't take us too far into the future. When I opened my eyes, we were all in Asgard. Ahsoka, Bunny, Frigga, Obi, Otara, Padmé, Piecor, R3, and Stass all looked around at Asgard in awe. Then I noticed something that wasn't there the last time I was here...I saw a golden statue of Loki in his Asgardian attire along with his helmet. Loki's statue had his arms spread out as his head looked up to the sky. I chuckled. "You're such a diva."

Loki gave me a puzzled look. "I don't understand."

"Look it's a statue of dad!" Padmé exclaimed.

Loki then realized what I meant after Padmé mentioned the statue. "Oh...about that...I can explain..."

"Is dad a hero here too?" Piecor asked as his eyes lit up.

I looked over at Loki for help only to find him looking back at me as well. He was shocked, lost for words. Looks like I'm going to have to step up again.

"Your father is a great man, however just like me and my family, secrets were kept. And when revealed mistakes were made. However he met me, and found someone who understood him for once. And he learned from his past, realizing that what he truly wanted was not obtainable by the things he did." I explained. "He was wounded, tortured, and hurt, but now he has changed for the better, standing above all the hurt and secrets. In fact, he helped to defeat the dark elves to stop the galaxies from being consumed into darkness, he has saved the galaxies back home, and he has saved my life. Remember this kids, no one is perfect. And we do not judge people by their past. Like a great Jedi Master once told me: In a dark place we find ourselves, and a little more knowledge lights our way. All of us may find ourselves lost at some point in our lives, but never give in to the darkness no matter what the odds are, and just know you're not alone."
