Bab 107: Chapter: 107
Chapter: 107
"Welcome back, everyone! I watched the battle from the remaining camera feeds in the city. Although it does seem that hundreds of cameras all stopped working at once for some reason at one point." Jarvis commented.
"Layla Angel-Nuked the city." Andrea said bluntly as she plopped down on a couch. She didn't even bother removing her armor first. All she did was take off her helmet.
She looked tired but relieved at the same time. I've inferred that in this dimension, she was in some kind of relationship with Bruce Banner. There also might be some survivor's guilt thrown in there now that we've dealt with the Avengers. Well, most of them anyway.
"How come Captain America wasn't there?" I asked Andrea.
Andrea grimaced. "I don't know. Steve landed at that airport and attacked a bunch of people to spread the virus. After that, I've never seen him since," she said. "Maybe someone put him down, or he's still out there somewhere just wandering around?"
Well, that wasn't ominous at all. I set Sif down on a chair and took a seat myself. Now that we'd taken care of Thor, we were supposed to immediately leave. Unfortunately, Lady Death gave me an annoying task first.
"So what now?" Andrea asked with a sigh.
"I was kind of hoping you had some ideas? I don't suppose you could build a bomb big enough to take out the world. Maybe find a way to knock the moon out of orbit and crash it into the planet?" I asked with a laugh.
Andrea rubbed her forehead. "Destroying the planet? That's a lot harder than it sounds. Could I make some bombs that wipe away most of the surface life? Sure. But they're not going to actually scratch the planet's crust at the end of the day. You really have to 'Death Star' the whole world!?" Andrea asked.
I nodded. That's what Death asked for, so that's what she would get.
Andrea took a second to ponder. She then glanced over at Sif sleeping in her chair. "Hmmm. There might be a way. It was something Thor mentioned about the Bifrost. Loki, at one point, turned it into a weapon supposedly and fired it at his home world. If Thor didn't stop it, then Jotunheim would have been destroyed." Andrea said.
My eyes widened. That could work! If Asgard was in the same spot here, then I could also just portal us there too! That was an easier plan than trying to find Thanos and stealing the power stone from him…
"What do you think Asgard's stance on this will be?" I asked. "Did they ever even send help down here after Thor was–you know?"
Andrea shook her head. "That's the weird thing! Asgard never sent any aid at all! Nobody came to help evacuate people or anything! Isn't that strange?" Andrea asked with a look of concern.
That was strange.
"Their immortal-ish Crown Prince dies on another world and they do nothing to investigate? Now that just doesn't make sense." I commented. "Something must have happened in Asgard at the same time as here. We'll have to be careful when we go there. We can't be sure what to expect."
"You think a zombie outbreak happened there too!?" Andrea asked fearfully.
I shrugged. Something must have happened there. "We won't know until we go there. For now though, you and Sif need to rest. After that, we'll fill her in on our plan and head to Asgard.
"Mam, might I make a suggestion?" Jarvis cut in.
"What is it Jarvis?" Andrea replied.
"Once we're on Asgard, you should upload me into one of their consoles. I can figure out how to operate the Bifrost and fire it." Jarvis said.
"That's good, Jarvis." Andrea said. "It could take a while to try and figure out how to operate the bifrost on our own."
Yeah, the movies just showed Heimdall controlling it with a sword.
A Sword!
How does that work? Its a comic book universe–fuck you that's how.
"Will Jarvis be able to interact with Asgardian tech?" I asked.
Andrea smirked and gave me the 'what do you think' look. I suppose we were taking him with us then. We couldn't really leave him anyway considering the world was about to get destroyed by a space laser.
Huh? I really was about to 'Death Star' the world wasn't I?
…
After our plans were set, Andrea decided to go get some rest. A few hours later, Sif had awoken and immediately looked upset. She had tears in her eyes as she looked at me.
"Are you alright Sif?" I asked her with concern.
"I'm sorry I lost and you had to save me…" Sif said somberly. "The whole fight was my idea in the first place. We could have just left. This isn't even our world after all." Sif then started crying.
"Hey Sif, it's ok. You can't win every fight. That's why we went in as a group in the first place." I said gently.
Sif sniffled. "You gave me such an amazing gift! It made me stronger and allowed me to heal from even fatal injuries. I wanted to finally defeat Thor to prove to you that I was completely over him and worthy of your courting gift!" Sif declared passionately.
…What?
[...What?]
"What else could such an amazing thing be other than a Courting Gift!?" Sif continued. "I never thought myself worthy of true love before but after that I was sure I'd finally found it!" Sif continued on while I just stared at her a bit dumbfounded.
[Hahahahaha. Courting Gift! Hahahahaha!]
'Shut it, System! You're still in the doghouse for accepting a deal with death without asking me!'
"Um, Sif. I am very attracted to you. But that wasn't a courting gift. It was…um…" I trailed off. Fuck, how do I nicely say that I gave Extremis to her on a whim. Without making it seem mean?
[There is no way to say it like that… You're gonna have to tell her the truth or lie. Hehe…]
"It was what, Layla?" Sif asked. Her eyes were still wet and I could tell if I said the wrong thing here it would really hurt her feelings.
Ok then…screw it. "Yes, it was a courting gift… You are incredibly beautiful Sif." I said. I knew Sif was incredibly into me, but I didn't know that I had technically started that in the first place. 'I suppose I should take responsibility…' I thought with a giggle.
Sif smiled brightly. My eyes widened when she leaned forward and smashed her lips into my own! I internally shrugged and kissed her back. I was courting one Asgardian Goddess already, so why not two? We continued to kiss and I was starting to feel myself get into the mood.
"Might I ask that you two not fornicate here as it would wake up mam? She only fell asleep an hour ago…" Jarvis cut in.
And the mood was gone… I hated this dimension.
