A/n: Long chapter to celebrate 30! Also, last chapter before the Infinity War storyline starts!!
~*~
"Get help! Please! My brother, he's dying!"
The group of three entered the garage with Loki hanging onto Thor and (Y/n)'s shoulders. After Thor was finished shouting, (Y/n) picked Loki up and threw him at the guards, knocking them down like bowling pins.
"That was a wonderful stress reducer," (Y/n) grinned, kissing Loki on the cheek as he jumped up.
"I still hate it. It's humiliating," Loki shook his head.
"Not for us it's not," Thor grinned, "Which one's the ship Valkyrie told us to get?"
"The Commodore," Loki pointed out a shiny, sleek ship.
(Y/n) felt something brush past her back. She turned and snet Loki a warning look as he approached the control pad.
"Though I feel it won't make much of a difference."
(Y/n) tapped Thor's shoulder. He turned, and sighed, "Oh Loki."
"I know I've betrayed you many times before, but this time it's truly nothing personal. I have a family to provide for, and the reward for your capture will be wonderful."
Loki pressed a button and triggered the alarm. (Y/n) smacked Loki's arm, hard.
"Don't put this on me!" She hissed.
"Darling I'm doing what's best for us," Loki defended.
"You deserve this," (Y/n) pressed a button on the trigger that had appeared in her hand. Loki fell to the floor, twitching under the electricity, "I'll be back for you later. I love you."
"Oh brother, you're becoming predictable. I trust you, you betray me. Round and round in circles we go," Thor sighed in mock disappointment, "See, Loki, life is about, it's about growth. It's about change. Sure, this time you're betraying me for your child, but it's betrayal all the same. You'll always be the God of Mischief. I'll just put this over here for you."
Thor took the trigger from (Y/n)'s hand, throwing it across the room. The two shared a look before they continued their walk towards the Commodore. When they entered, Thor let (Y/n) take the lead in flying since she had a better track record.
She pushed a few buttons before the garage door opened, setting off even more alarms. (Y/n) cringed, pushing forward the accelerator to fly them out.
"Loyal Sakaarians, Lord of Thunder has stolen my ship, my favorite champion, and my favorite person! Take to the skies, bring him down. Do not let him leave this planet."
"Shit," (Y/n) mumbled, increasing their speed even more in an attempt to get away from all of the ships rising into the sky.
Two shis flew up behind the Commodore and (Y/n) groaned. She desperately searched for weapons before the ships were shot out of the sky. (Y/n) looked at the screen to see who was behind her, grinning when she saw Val's ship.
"Open the doors," Valkyrie ordered through the radio.
(Y/n) heard a scream from behind her and realized that Val had thrown Bruce onto their ship. (Y/n) looked bac to make sure he was okay, and smiled when he gave a thumbs up.
"Shouldn't we be shooting back or something?" Bruce asked, joining the two in the front.
"I don't think there are any weapons on here," (Y/n) said in frustration.
"There aren't, it's a leisure vessel. For orgies and stuff."
"Gross," (Y/n) groaned.
A loud explosion rang out from behind them. All of them turned and screamed when they saw Val's ship explode.
Thunk!
Everyone screamed again, but this time because Val had landed on the windshield, holding onto the front so she wouldn't fly off. There was smoke coming off of her clothes.
"Get inside!" Thor yelled.
"In a minute!" Valkyrie shouted back.
On the top of the ship there were several thumping sounds. Obviously, they were Valkyrie running.
"I should probably go and help. Banner, you're copilot."
"Copilot," Bruce muttered, "I don't know how to fly one of these."
"Use one of your PhDs," Thor stated simply.
"None of them are for flying alien spaceships!" Bruce shouted, bt Thor was already gone.
"It's fine, I'll handle it," (Y/n) assured.
Thor jumped from the ship as well, leaving just Bruce and (Y/n). (Y/n) was so concentrated on flying that she missed Bruce looking over the panel.
"I think this is a gun. It has to be a gun," Bruce pressed a button with an explosion on it.
When he pressed it, fireworks began to shoot out of the back of the ship. Along with that, a disco ball lowered from the ceiling and the Grandmaster's voice rang through the ship.
"It's my birthday!"
"What is this?" (Y/n) shared a confused look with Banner. Bruce shrugged in confusion.
"Guys, we're coming up on the Devil's Anus!" Valkyrie warned as her and Thor jumped into the ship.
Valkyrie and Thor sat down in the two seats behind Bruce and (Y/n), strapping themselves in. (Y/n) accelerated the ship
even more, pushing them into the Devil's Anus. Everyone in the ship began screaming at the force pushed on them.
Within a few seconds, the ship became silent. Everyone had passed out.
~*~
When (Y/n) woke up, the other three were coming out of their daze as well. They had successfully made it off of Sakaar and were in space just outside of Asgard. It was beautiful. (Y/n) had never seen it from this view.
"I never thought I'd be back here," Valkyrie mumbled, voice thick with emotion.
"I thought it'd be nicer," Banner stated as they descended towards the Rainbow Bridge, "I mean, not that it's not nice. It's just, it's on fire."
Asgard was in ruins, a devastated ghost town. Dead soldiers lined the streets, buildings were in a horrid state. It made (Y/n) tear up. This was her home in shambles.
"Here, up here in the mountains," Valkyrie pointed at a map, "Heat signatures. People clustered together. Hela's coming for them."
"Okay, drop me off at the palace and I'll draw her away," Thor stated.
"Thor, you know I have faith in you, but what are you gonna do against her?" (Y/n) questioned nervously.
"I'll figure it out on the way don't worry," Thor waved his hand in dismissal.
(Y/n) flew in front of the palace. She stood from her seat as the doors opened so Thor could get out.
"I need to get something from the armory," she stated.
While Thor found one of Odin's spears, (Y/n) pried open a dusty crate. Inside, it was full of Valkyrie armor. She pulled t outset and blew the dust off of it.
"The ship needs a gun," Thor pointed towards a large machine gun, "Like that."
"Have fun with that," (Y/n) snorted, "I'm not going to carry that."
Thor looked at the gun hopelessly. (Y/n) left the armory, jumping back onto the ship. To her surprise, Thor was close behind her, lugging the gun in his arms.
Thor basically threw it onto the ship, itthrowing it off kilter for a few seconds before it stabilized.
"There, now the ship has a gun," Thor grinned, proud of himself.
"I'll take it from here," Val assured.
"Val," (Y/n) spoke up, "I found this in the armory."
"Thanks," Valkyrie whispered. Thor jumped out of the ship once again, "Your majesty. Don't die. You know what I mean."
Thor nodded at the two before they flew away, leaving him to face Hela alone.
"Maybe I should have stayed with him," (Y/n) said as soon as they left, "He would have a better chance if I fought with him-"
"You 're going to risk hurting your body. I know you can move your kid to wherever, but if you get killed, it's over. Besides, the people need you."
"You're right," (Y/n) felt a bit better about not helping Thor after that, "Drop me off at the end of the bridge, I'll meet the people there."
Valkyrie did as (Y/n) ordered, stopping the ship at the end of the bridge. In the distance, (Y/n) could faintly see a large portion of the Asgardian people making their way towards the Bifrost.
"Heimdall," (Y/n) gave Heimdall a quick hug, "Glad to see you're alive. Sorry about what Loki did."
"After all the times I've committed treason, this is the only time I've had to do something about it."
Boom. Boom. Boom.
(Y/n) and Heimdall turned. They were shocked to see Fenris, Hela's demon-dog at the end of the bridge, as though he had appeared out of nowhere. His growl made the Rainbow Bridge vibrate.
"Go back!" Heimdall yelled.
The people began to panic, rushing to run away. Fenris reared, then charged. (Y/n) drew her sword, ready to fight for her realm. She had faced worse creatures before.
Something flashed in her peripheral vision. (Y/n) looked up, smirking when the Commodore flew above Fenris.
Valkyrie began to shoot the gun at the wolf, stopping him in place. All of the Asgardians stopped. On their other side, was Skurge, leading Hela's undead army.
"Heimdall! The sword!" Skurge screamed.
Heimdall made no move to give up the Bifrost sword. Skurge held up his hand and the army charged. Valkyrie directed the gunfire towards the army, holding them at bay, but that left Fenris open so she quickly had to change back.
"Everyone move!" (Y/n) shouted, "We need to get to the Bifrost!"
Fenris ignored the bullets being shot at him and began to run at the refugees again. (Y/n) raised her sword, Heimdall doing the same. As the wolf came nearer, a loud thud rang throughout the air. A body had landed on the bridge.
"Bruce?" (Y/n) questioned, "Are you alright?"
Bruce groaned in reply. Fenris sniffed hid motionless body for a second, before he continued his charge. Just as he was in reach to bite Heimdall and (Y/n), something grabbed his tail and pulled him back. It was Hulk! (Y/n) sighed in relief. That's was one problem down.
Hulk and Fenris tumbled off of he bridge and into the water below, clearing the path. The people began to surge forward again, already having soldiers from the undead army.
In the fog ahead of her, (Y/n) could see something metallic landing on the edge of the bridge. She squinted her eyes, before laughing. It was a ship she had seen in the garage on Sakaar.
"Your savior has arrived!" Loki had his arms outstretched, his everlasting smirk plastered on his lips.
"Did you miss me?" Loki asked with a grin, "Everybody on that ship, now."
The refugees began pouring into the ark. The only entrance however, was the narrow platform, so it was mayhem.
"Gods I love you," (Y/n) kissed Loki deeply, "I love you so much."
"I love you too darling," Loki whispered.
"Welcome home," Heimdall greeted, "I saw you coming.
"Of course you did," Loki smirked.
The three turned to face the oncoming army. Their main objective was to protect the people, nothing else mattered more.
(Y/n) could feel her fingers twitching with the urge to use her magic. She held back, dealing with the difficulty of hand to hand combat.
"Why do you struggle to fight?" Heimdall took notice of her inner termoil, "Don't tell me it's the children you can so easily protect."
(Y/n) shook her head. Of course Heimdall knew of the children. (Y/n) turned away from her current enemy to face Heimdall.
"I've lost my necklace. Without it, I don't know how to stay in control."
"Your necklace never helped you stay in control!" Heimdall shouted, sighing soon after as if a weight was off of his chest.
"What are you talking about?" (Y/n) questioned, panting as she had a small break in her fight. Loki has stepped in front of her, giving her the chance to talk to Heimdall.
"All the necklace did was contain the pieces of aether that remained. Odin made you believe it limited your powers so you could be controlled. You have always been in control of yourself."
"Odin you ass!" I screamed at the sky, "I've lived in fear all this time for nothing!"
"Now you know how I've felt darling," Loki stated.
From above, on the palace balcony, a large bolt of lightning struck down and Hela could be seen falling from it. Loki smirked, (Y/n) grinned. It seemed that both her and Thor had learned of their true power.
"Let's do this," (Y/n) walked forward past Loki and towards the undead army.
They had split in half. Half of them were piling on top of each other to fight and approaching Thor, the other half was running towards her.
(Y/n) raised her hand. The bridge seemed to warp, sucking the soldiers and down into the water. She looked down, waving her hand. A large current overtook them and sent all of them over the edge of the realm. This was much easier than fighting with her sword.
Valkyrie made a rough landing on the bridge. Fireworks began to shoot out from the ship again. Along with that, a Mudgardian song was playing over the loudspeakers. It sounded like something Tony listened to. Led Zeppelin?
Slowly but surely, the army was losing its numbers, and the people were making it onto the ship. Thor walked over to the group, holding a hand out to help Loki up.
"You're late," he stated.
"You're missing an eye," Loki shot back.
Thor looked to (Y/n), "You're in control again?"
"Always have been," (Y/n) shrugged.
"This isn't over," Val called out.
At the end of the bridge, Hela was seething. A true vision of death. The women took a few slow steps, taking her time to make the group panic.
"I think we should disband the Revengers," Thor stated.
"Hit her with a lightning blast," Loki hissed.
"I just hit her with the biggest blast in the history of lightning. It did nothing. It won't end here. The longer Hela's on Asgard the more powerful she grows. She'll hunt us down. We need to stop her here and now."
"I'm not doing Get Help."
"Thor," (Y/n) put a hand on Thor's arm, "Asgard isn't a place. It's a people."
"This was never about stopping Ragnarok," Thor realized, "It was about causing it. Go to the vault. Surtur's crown. It's the only way."
"Bold move, brother. Even for me," Loki kissed (Y/n)'s cheek, "I'll be back."
"You better be."
Loki ran off, leaving Val, Thor, and (Y/n) to deal with Hela. The three shared a tired look before they all ran forward.
Weapons clashed together at the climax of Ragnarok. Hela continued to manifest pitch black weapons, but (Y/n) and Thor were generating their own powerful attacks at the same pace.
Hela raised her hand and (Y/n) raised hers as well. Their powers went head to head and (Y/n) prevented Hela from spearing the final Asgardians from afar.
"Go!" (Y/n) screamed as Heimdall got on.
Hela harpooned Thor, knocked Valkyrie back, and sliced (Y/n)'s stomach - a bitch move if (Y/n) had anything to say about it. Hela summoned a giant spike of bedrock that prevented the Ark from leaving. Hela's soldiers scrambled up onto the Ark.
Suddenly, the soldiers began to fall dead. They were being shot by Midgardians weapons! (Y/n) watched in shock as Skurge jumped down from the ship, breaking the bedrock and gunning the soldiers.
Hela gave a sigh of disappointment before she killed Skurge too. But it was too late. The Ark was away from the bridge and flying to safety.
"Hela! Enough!" Thor stood up, recovered slightly.
(Y/n) winced, placing her hand over her stomach. The skin began to stitch itself together before all that remained of the injury was a small scar.
"You want Asgard? It's yours."
"Whatever game you're playing, it won't work. You can't defeat me."
"We can't," (Y/n) pointed at the palace, "But he can."
Surtur exploded through the roof of the palace. He was steadily growing in size and wielded a massive sword covered in fire.
"No! No!" Hela screamed.
(Y/n) took advantage of Hela's shock and drove her sword through her chest, backing up as the bridge collapsed beneath her.
"Tremble before me Asgard, for I am your reckoning!"
"The people are safe. That's all that matters," Val stated, but the sadness in her voice was evident.
"Farewell Asgard," (Y/n) mumbled.
Hulk popped up onto the bridge. He looked around, noticing Surtur. Hulk roared, jumping up and landing on Surtur's nose. The being simply swatted him off and back onto the bridge.
"Hulk stop! Stop it you moron!" Thor shouted.
"But big monster!"
"Let's go," Val's tone said it was final.
Hulk picked up the three and jumped from the bridge, landing gently in the ship.
Everyone watched in silence as Surtur drive his sword through the heart of Asgard. Korg spoke up, "The damage is not too bad. As long as the foundations are strong, we can rebuild this place. It will become a haven for all people and aliens of the universe-"
The sword touched the base of Asgard, and it exploded in a violent detonation of energy.
"Nope, those foundations are gone. Sorry."
"The greatest realm to ever exist is gone," (Y/n) whispered.
"But it's people aren't," Val motioned to the refugees.
"Come on Thor," (Y/n) grabbed Thor's hand, leading him away from the sight.
She had been on the Ark once before and knew where to go, Thor needed a drink.
She picked up one of the glasses and watched as it morphed into an eyepatch. She held it out to Thor, who took it silently. He then turned to the desk where the alcohol was and poured himself a glass.
"I feel like we can finally relax," (Y/n)'s armor melted away, and instead she was in a dress. Upon closer look, a bump had formed over her stomach. She no longer had to hide her pregnancy, or keep her children in a pocket dimension.
"It suits you."
(Y/n) and Thor turned to look at Loki standing by the door.
"Perhaps you're not so bad after all, brother," Thor smiled, "And if you were here, I might even give you a hug."
Thor threw a glass bottle cork at Loki. To his surprise, it didn't go through him. Instead, the man caught it.
(Y/n) ran to Loki and threw her arms around him, her eyes full of tears. And while (Y/n) couldn't see it, Thor could. Loki's eyes were full of tears as well.
~*~
"Your throne."
Thor looked down at the captain's chair. He had just walked past the people in a sort of improvised coronation. The man reluctantly sat down.
"So, My King," (Y/n) gave a teasing smile, "Where to?"
"I'm not sure. Any suggestions? Miek, what's your home planet?"
"Oh, Miek's dead. I accidentally stepped on him on the bridge, I've just felt so guilty I've been carrying him around all day," Miek wiggled to life, cutting Korh off, "Miek, you're alive! He's alive everyone! What was your question?"
"Earth it is!" Thor decided.
~*~
It had been a few hours of traveling. Valkyrie and Hulk went off to find somewhere they could train, Korg and Miek were talking to their rebellion friends, and Thor was resting his eyes in his seat.
"It's strange seeing you show," Loki placed a hand over (Y/n)'s bump, "Especially since it seemingly appeared out of nowhere."
"Well I don't have to hide it anymore, do I?" I questioned with a smile. I tugged on his hair gently, "I'm going to cut your hair when we get to Midgard. I like it short."
Loki chuckled, shaking his head at his wife's statement.
"Lady (Y/n)," a small girl tugged on the woman's skirts, "Can you tell us a story? About all your adventures?"
(Y/n) looked up at the Asgardians. They were all looking at her expectantly, even the adults.
"Alright," (Y/n) sat down, motioning for everyone else to do the same, "My- our adventures started six years ago, at what was supposed to be Thor's coronation..."
~*~
(Y/n) has spent a good chunk of time telling everyone about the adventures her and the Avengers had been on the par few years. Many of the Asgardians were asleep, giving Thor, Loki, and her the chance to go off to a separate room and discuss their plans for the future.
"Do you really think it's a good idea to go back to Earth?" Loki questioned.
"Sure! They love us there," Thor said simply.
"Let me rephrase. Do you really think it's a good idea to bring me back to Earth?"
"Probably not. But don't worry, brother, I've got a feeling that everything's going to work out."
Suddenly, (Y/n) grabbed Loki's hand, her eyes wide and full of fear. Her voice was a whisper, but her words were enough to send both Loki and Thor into action.
"He's here."
