[Loki Odinson POV]
I HATED that human.
I also feared that human.
But above all, I hated my father.
That above me, he had chosen him… a mortal.
He had magically bound me to not attack, or try anything against Alex, for if I did, I would lose all my powers, turning into that what I despised, a mortal.
I hated that no one wanted to listen to me, that everyone thought this was the right way, even Thor sided with father, picking that mortal over his own blood.
"Loki, the All-Father summons you," Sif said as she walked into my room.
"If it isn't the whore of the mortal," I sneered, looking at her with rage.
"Jealous?" Sif shot back with a glare.
"Of what? Used merchandise?" I snorted, rolling my eyes.
"Merchandise you used to pursue… but were too little of a man to even touch," Sif replied.
"I might not be able to kill Alex anymore, but I sure can kill you, so watch your tone, I am still your prince," Alex or not, she was a citizen of Asgard, therefore mine to command.
"You were never able to kill Alex to begin with, and second, no one commands me," Sif growled, "I follow the All-Father because he inspires me to do so, out of my free will, you? You only inspire pity little prince,"
I glared at her, my magic flaring, she dared to insult me? She dared! I WAS HER SUPERIOR, A GOD!
"Loki," Thor said, coming into the room, interrupting what I was about to do.
"Thor," I replied with a low hiss.
"Loki, Alex is pursuing Sif's attention and if you harm her in any way, I don't think he will take it very well," Thor sighed, for some reason he looked tired, very tired, which was unlike him.
"As if he could kill me," Sif snorted.
"I can, and I will," I growled at her insolence.
"You won't even try, I forbid it," Thor sighed.
"You forbid it?" I laughed.
"As the crown prince of Asgard, I outrank you, therefore, you will obey, or I will talk with the All-Father about this," Thor replied in an uncharacteristically cold tone for him.
I laughed, "Well, I do suppose I better not try my luck then, Thor,"
"You better not, Loki," Thor replied, "Now, go, the All-Father summons you, and you have been ignoring his summons long enough,"
"Aye," I nodded, for now, I would play their role, but one day, one day they would pay for this, one day it would be them looking at me from below.

[Emily Walker POV]
Magic was fun.
And I was good at it.
"Congratulations Emily," Magic Grandma said, patting me in the head.
"Well, I am the best," I grinned at her, which made her chuckle.
"Well, you are truly a gifted child for these arts, and have more… focus than your father," Magic Grandma chuckled.
At her comment of daddy, I pouted, "Daddy just has a lot of things to do… he can't focus in one for too long, or the others come to bite him in the A,"
Magic Grandma nodded, "I know, I never meant to insult your father dear Emily, only to complement your incredible prowess in the mystical arts, which are improving by each passing day."
I smiled, "I try my best, because one day, I might be able to help daddy, he takes on everything alone… and I want to be there for him," but I needed to be stronger, I was too weak.
"Soon, you will be able to help Mr. Walker, but first you need to enjoy your childhood, do you really think he would be happy knowing his little princess is worrying about him?" Well.. she had a point, but I just couldn't help it!
"I know I know, but as long as you don't tell him, he won't know," One day, I would protect him, like he had protected me, one day, I would become a pillar to help him carry all that weight that seems to crush him down.
"You Walkers truly are a show," Magic Grandma laughed.

[Alex Walker POV]
It had taken me a while, but I finally had all the technology I needed for my armor, all that was left was downsizing said technology, which was proving to be difficult, so I did what I had to do, I swallowed my pride, and called… the only person that could help me.
Hank Pym.
For a while I was tempted to call Tony, but considering he was right now an arms dealer, I… well, decided against to, I mean, imagine earth waging war with futuristic weapons, fuck that.
"Where… where did you find this?" Hank muttered, looking in awe at what I had in my lab.
"Well… you know, space," I replied with a chuckle.
"You went to space?" Hank almost shouted, turning to look at me.
I looked at him, and with an raised eyebrow, I replied, "That surprises you? You can shrink your ass to molecular levels, and me going to space blows your mind?"
Hank blinked, before he started laughing, "I… Well, I suppose you do have a point, young man, but still… This means you have reached intelligent life, a form of life whose technological advancement is leagues above ours!" Needless to say, Hank was beyond elated, like a kid on Christmas.
"Yes, yes I did," I nodded, not wanting to go into details.
"What I don't understand is why you want to weaponize all of this? Is SHIELD manipulating you? Remember what I told you about them, they are not to be trusted!" Hank sighed, rubbing his temples.
"First of all, SHIELD is the least of my concerns, second, what does this…" I pointed to the ships and weapons I had replicated from the Nova Corps, "Proofs?"
"That we are evidently not alone," Hank replied.
"And that there are threats out there able to wipe us off the cosmos with a snap," I nodded, "Not all aliens are friendly, and we need to be prepare, and unfortunately for me, I can't tackle this project alone,"
"Well, you do have a point, and I do want to work with this alien tech, so let's dig in kiddo!" Hank grinned, already forgetting why he was against it in the first place.
