"Maybe I don't know that much but I know this much is true, I was blessed because I was loved by you."

Celine Dion

We arrive in Stuttgart and find Loki outside of a building with a large group of people kneeling before him. Clint is nowhere to be seen.

An older gentleman stands defying Loki's order. "Not to men like you."

"There are no men like me," Loki states.

"There are always men like you," the older man states.

"Look to your elder, people. Let him be an example," Loki says.

Loki is about to execute him with his scepter as the light glows blue. Just as the energy beam shoots out, the Cap and I arrive. Cap dives in and blocks them with his shield knocking Loki down with the blast.

"You know, the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing," Steve states.

Loki stands to his feet. "The soldier. A man out of time."

"I'm not the one who's out of time," Steve states.

From above the Quinjet arrives. A machine gun is pointed towards Loki.

"Loki, drop the weapon and stand down," Natasha orders.

Loki sends a blast of blue at the Quinjet. Natasha maneuvers it just in time, giving Cap the time to throw his shield at Loki. They both begin to duke it out. Loki flings Cap to the ground. Cap then throws his shield, but Loki swats it away. Cap is knocked down by Loki. I rush over between the two and start to fight Loki myself. I throw punch after punch but Loki gets the upper hand and knocks me down. He holds the scepter's tip at my heart.

"Kneel," Loki orders.

"Me? Kneel for you, Loki?" I scoff. "I don't think so."

I use my powers to pull the scepter from Loki's hand. I kick him in the chest knocking him to the ground. I stand over him with the scepter pointed at his heart.

"I remember you being a more skilled fighter," I taunt.

Loki materializes a dagger and stabs it into my leg. I cry out in pain before falling on my butt. Loki stands over me having grabbed the scepter again.

Suddenly, AC/DC's "Shoot to Thrill" starts blasting from the Quinjet's speakers.

Loki, Steve, and I all look up to the sky. That's when we see Tony fly over in his Iron Man suit and blasts Loki right back to the ground. Iron Man touches down. He stands up and pulls out every piece of weaponry the suit has.

"Make your move, Reindeer Games," Tony taunts.

Loki puts up his hands and surrenders. His armor materializes away.

"Good move," Tony states.

Steve goes to Tony. "Mr. Stark."

"Captain," Tony greets. He turns to me. "Did you miss me, Honey?"

I roll my eyes. "That was a cheap shot. I had him pinned."

Tony smiles. "You were stabbed in the leg. And don't think we're not gonna have the whole you being a demigod conversation later."

Steve, Tony, and I take Loki to the Quinjet. We sit him down and tie him up and cuff him to his seat. Out of nowhere thunder strikes.

Tony, Steve, and I stand whispering so Loki can't hear us.

"I don't like it," Steve states.

"What? Rock of Ages giving up so easily?" Tony questions.

"I don't remember it being ever that easy," Steve says.
