The Destroyer didn't get up after this. All finally felt relieved. John who was watching this was also relieved. Because he didn't want to bring out more characters to deal with it. John knew that Diana showing up might itself be a variable in Loki's preparation for the New York War but he was ready to take the risk.
John didn't want too much butterfly effect till the New York War. After that he might change the route of the story.
Thor came down and thanked Diana. He needed to go back to Asgard to deal with Loki before he did something stupid. Thor called Heimdall but there was no response. But after few moments the Bifrost finally opened. The Bifrost even took away the knocked down body of the Destroyer.
Thor and his friends went into the Bifrost and vanished. Thor even invited Diana to go with him to Asgard as she herself was of God's blood. Thor wanted to know more about her and the place she came from. But Diana refused as she wanted to be here. She had more things to do on Earth.
After speaking with Coulson, John was ready to leave with Diana to New York. He needed to introduce her to Bruce and give her a place to stay. John already had a place in his mind for her to live.
"How did you know that the Destroyer will come and invade the town." Coulson asked.
"My dreams can sometimes look into future. Didn't I mention this on our first conversation" John replied. Coulson had a solemn look on his face after this but didn't say anything.
"We need to assess Diana's identity." Coulson added at the end.
"I remember Fury wanted to check out the Jurassic Park for risk assessment. Tell him to go over there. Diana will be staying there as a curator of the Park." John said. Coulson nodded to that.
The plot of Thor proceeded exactly like it was supposed to with Loki falling into the abyss and destruction of the Rainbow Bridge. Even though John didn't participate in it he had hoped that the plot won't change as Loki was required to deal with Kang.
The next day John and Diana reached New York. After reaching they went straight to Bruce's place. When Diana entered Bruce's apartment, she saw Alfred and immediately felt happy.
"It's nice to see you again Alfred."
"Miss Diana! Welcome to this world. How have you been?" Alfred said with a genuine smile.
"I am fine. Where is Bruce?" Diana asked.
"He is in his lab."
Diana went to the underground lab. John provided Bruce with a huge lab and necessary equipment. Now Bruce doesn't stay with Tony much as Tony now had a girlfriend and he didn't want to be in an awkward position. Tony too understood so didn't say anything. Now they both carry out their research in their respective labs while cooperating when required.
As Diana went to the new 'Bat cave', Bruce too received the notification. He was happy to see an old comrade again. They talked about lot of things about the past and Bruce even said about the extra memory which he had of Darkseid. Diana was also shocked when she heard all this.
"It's fine now. Darkseid isn't in this world. You don't need to worry about him." John said as he listened to their conversation and added
"Diana we need to go to the place where you will live. Fury will come soon so we can go with him together."
As the three were talking John received a text
"I have a surprise for you."
"Surprise? What surprise?" John replied via text.
"Guess where I am?" came the question.
"New York?" John texted as his eyes went big with expectation.
"Yes. I am about to check out. Want to pick me up?" Emma messaged him.
"Will be there in a few minutes" John texted and hurriedly left. John sat on the car and said "Bee take me to the airport as fast as possible"
Bee drove to the airport quite fast without breaking the speed limit. As John went out of his car he saw Emma standing while hiding her face wearing a mask as she didn't want to be recognized by people. John came near her and said
"That was quite a surprise."
"The shooting ended day before yesterday. So after packing myself I took the flight. You promised me you will take me to Jurassic Park when I come to NY. So now I am here."
"You came to NY so that you can visit Jurassic Park and not me? I am hurt" John said with mock sadness.
"Hah. Twisting my words. Of course I missed you." Emma said as she kissed him. John responded to her kiss.
"Let's go before people recognize us." John said and took her hand and led to the car. "Let's go back to my home. I will introduce you to my father and Val."
"Umm are you sure about it?" Emma said with hesitation.
"Why? Aren't you my girlfriend already?" John asked her with seriousness. He felt for a second that he might have crossed the line in this regard but her next words relieved her.
"Of course I am your girlfriend but is it ok to meet you father. He kind of scares me. Sorry."

"Hahaha you don't have to worry about it. Dad always listens to me." John said being relieved. It's been almost 2 years they had been dating and John wanted to introduce her to his family.
John and Emma reached his home and went inside. Val was present as usual taking care of the house. John introduced her to Val. Valentina was very happy that John had brought a girl. She used to think John probably would die single after watching his lifestyle but finally saw hope.
John took her to the guest room and allowed her to fresh herself after a long flight. After an hour or so Emma came out looking fresh and wet hair. John who was sitting in the family saw her in that look and almost melted in his seat.
Emma sat beside him and he couldn't stop himself from kissing her. Jameson still had couple of hours left to return so they started talking. Emma was excited about the Jurassic Park and she couldn't stop herself but John remembered that Fury would join him in this expedition.
"Emma what do you think of me? Like from a third person's perspective." John suddenly asked.
"Huh! I don't understand. What do you mean?" She replied being confused.
"For example, if you have never known me. What would you think of me?"
"Ummm.. Probably a mysterious business tycoon who never shows his face. In my crew everybody wants to know more about you. You are a legend." Emma laughed.
"Mysterious? Maybe I am. Emma my world is very different. My world is dangerous. More dangerous than you can imagine." he said. Emma was confused by this so she asked
"Dangerous? You mean your relation with Tony Stark and Bruce makes you vulnerable?" Emma asked. Emma knew how politics worked, even though John had huge influence sometimes politics could be overwhelming. John not being a part of politics had already surprised her so she thought John was threatened by something.
"No Emma it's not them, people don't actually matter to me. I am trying to say about other things. Did you watch Wonder Woman?" John said.
"Yes. It's a good superhero movie."
"What if I tell you Diana Prince is real?" John asked with a serious face.
"Huh! Good joke John, you almost fooled me with your serious face." Emma said with a laugh but after a couple of seconds she saw that John had no change of face.
"You gotta be kidding me? Say that it's a joke." Emma asked now with all seriousness.
"I wish it was a joke Emma but it isn't. Diana does exist and tomorrow you will get to see her." John said.
"I don't understand. Her existing means Gods once lived in Earth? If it's true why would you make a movie on her? Isn't that exposing you in front of people if her identity gets revealed?" Emma asked. John was surprised by her thoughtfulness.
"Gods exist, Yes! But your notion of Gods and real Gods are different. About me showing her it's because she doesn't belong to our universe.." John then proceeded to explain her about his 'false' parallel universe theory and told her it's his way of contacting the people who comes from other universes and his subsequent dreams. Emma was shaken, in fact a part of her still didn't believe him. But John's insistence and promise of introducing her to Diana convinced her somehow.
As John was explaining many things to her, Jameson returned. He saw his son talking with a girl in the family room. Even though he heard rumors of his dating in England he never paid heed to it.
But when he saw Emma talking with John he knew that the rumors were true.
"Dad, she is Emma, my girlfriend."
"Emma this is my father, J Jonah Jameson." John introduced them to each other.
"Hello Mr. Jameson it's nice to meet you." Emma said with a hint of blush on her face.
"Hello miss Emma. It's nice to meet you too. My son has a girlfriend now. Looks like he has grown up finally. Son I need to talk to you in private." Jameson said with a laugh and a hint of seriousness at the end.
"Private? What happened? You can speak in front of her. She knows about my secret. I just told her." John said. Jameson was surprised that Emma knew his secret. Jameson hesitated for a second and finally said
"I heard there was an incident in New Mexico. Were you involved? I saw that you went there few days ago."
"Yes. There was an incident and it's resolved. Diana has appeared." John said.
"What? Even she is real? No wonder you showed her connection with Batman in the movie. Next time don't be mysterious and inform me from before who will be appearing."
"Dad I am never sure who will appear. I just see my dreams and make it in reality. Not all characters I make come to this world." John shrugged and lied straight out.
