Glitter & Gold (Marvel/Star Wars Crossover)

Chapter 45: Conversations Over Sabacc

Days turned into weeks, and we began to form a plan. I helped to fix Erol's and Typho's ships, finding spare parts and tools. As we went over the plan in secrecy, I could notice that Loki was hesitant, but I knew he was just as worried about our kids as I was. Unfortunately through the Force, I discovered Volstagg, Hogun, and Fandral were killed by Hela, while Thor was missing, and Sif was also banished, which Loki admitted much later. Currently Loki, Frigga, and I were sitting in one of the living rooms of the Grandmaster's, talking with several of his guests. Allie, Erol, R3, and Typho were somewhere in the tower, wandering around. Loki was talking about a story of his past to the guests.

"There was a wormhole in space and time beneath me. At that moment, I let go." Loki concluded.

At that moment we heard a familiar booming voice shout out at us. "Loki? Storm? Frigga?! Loki! Storm! Over here! Over here."

We turned upon hearing that familiar voice, and sure enough there sat Thor, strapped in a chair not too far from us. His face lit up when he saw us. Frigga and I stood up at once while Loki turned back to the guests, letting out a small laugh. "Excuse me one second."

With that we made our way towards Thor, who shouted out our names again. Loki immediately shushed him as we approached him. "Shh! Shh!"

Thor was taken back, but nevertheless replied in a hushed whisper. "What?"

"You're alive?" I asked, rather surprised yet relived.

"Yes, of course I'm alive." Thor responded.

"What are you doing here?" Loki inquired.

"What do you mean, what am I doing? I'm stuck in this stupid chair." Thor retorted. "Where's your chair?"

"We didn't get chairs." Frigga replied.

"Get me out of this one." Thor urged.

Loki hesitated. "I can't."

"Get me out." Thor insisted.

"I can't." Loki responded.

"Get me out." Thor repeated, growing impatient.

"I can't."

Thor's face fell as he looked over at me for help. "What? Why?"

"I've made friends with this man. He's called the Grandmaster."

"Oh, he's crazy!" Thor commented.

"I've gained his favor. The Bifrost brought me out here weeks ago." Loki explained.

"Frigga, R3, and I came a little later. We arrived a week ago." I added.

"Weeks ago?" Thor repeated in confusion.

Loki nodded. "Yes."

"I just got here." Thor said.

The Grandmaster then approached us, scaring Thor. "What are you whispering about? Time works real different around these parts. On any other world, I'd be, like, millions of years old. But here on Sakaar..."

The Grandmaster trailed off as he gave Loki a mysterious look, causing Thor, Frigga, and me to look at them in confusion. As soon as the Grandmaster saw us, he quickly changed the subject. "In any case, you know this, uh...this, uh...You call yourself Lord of Thunder?"

"God of Thunder." Thor corrected before looking over at us. "Tell him."

"I've never met this man in my life." Loki protested.

My eyes widened. "Loki, you can't be serious."

"He's my brother." Thor explained.

"Adopted." Loki reiterated.
