Days after Agent Orange’s capture…
In a dark room, Rawlins and Schoonover were strapped to metal chairs. Both of them were a bit beaten up, but no amount of bruises and cuts could cover up the tired look of defeat on their faces.
Outside of the room, Frank stared at Peter in disbelief.
“You’re sure it’s okay?” Frank asks as he tightens his grip on the pistol in his hand.
“Yeah, as long as you agree to join the Avengers.” Peter shrugs without much care.
“Alright…” Frank nods as he cocks his pistol back and storms into the interrogation room.
“Frank!?” Schoonover exclaims in surprise as he noticed the gun. “Wait, don’t-”
*bang!*
Without a shred of remorse or hesitation, Frank put a single bullet in the Colonel’s forehead, killing him instantly.
*heavy breathing*
Seeing this unfold, Rawlins knew he was next and started hyperventilating.
“Please don’t…” Rawlins begs as his breathing fastens. “I’m sorry-”
*bang!*
Once again, Frank executed Rawlins in the same fashion as his accomplice, drilling a bullet into his skull.
Holstering his pistol, Frank sighed as he finally completed his vengeance.
“You know how movies like to tell us that getting revenge isn’t worth it in the end?” Frank asks rhetorically as he walks out of the room. “Well, they’re full of cr*p.”
Walking past Peter, Frank made his way toward the elevators, ready to spend some quality time with his family.
“Jarvis, erase the security footage…” Peter orders as he waves his hand, opening a large portal underneath the two dead bodies.
“Yes, sir.” Jarvis says dutifully as the two were swallowed by the golden portal and shipped off to the sun.

Laying in his bed, Peter hugged MJ close to his chest as they watched a movie on the flatscreen TV.
“Hey, do you want to meet Thor?” Peter asked as the movie ended.
Ever since Loki was found, Peter planned to head over to Asgard, so that he could inform his family, though there was another reason for his visit as well.
He needs to visit the Dwarves of Nidavellir, as the infinity stones need some sort of conduit.
The Dwarves would be one of the very few in the whole universe with the means to craft something like the infinity gauntlet for him.
Especially with the Reality Stone’s appearance, which should happen in a few months time.
Although Peter has already found the coordinates for Nidavellir, having the king of Asgard’s recommendation would most likely speed things along.
“In Asgard?” She asks hopefully.
Ever since Peter told her about the home of the Asgardians, MJ has always wanted to go and see the sites.
“Yeah, I’m leaving tomorrow morning though, so you’ll have to ditch school.” Peter says, knowing she would gladly do so.
“I can’t wait…”
———————————————
The next morning, Peter woke up to MJ running crazily around the room, getting ready to vacation in an alien civilization.
She even packed a suitcase, as if he couldn’t just portal her to her closet at any moment.
“You’re finally awake!” MJ exclaimed excitedly.
…
After being rushed by his overly excited girlfriend, the two suited up and portal’d straight into the throne room of Asgard’s Royal Palace.
“Your Majesty, I see no reason why we haven’t reclaimed the Nine Realms already.” A young ambitious-looking warrior kneeled in front of Thor, as he sat on his father’s old throne with his mother standing beside him, like a royal advisor.
“Balder Freyson, we’ve spoken on this many times already.” Frigga speaks up for her son. “Many of the realms are peaceful and the outlook of Asgard is no longer focused on war. It hasn’t been that way for a very long time.”
“With all due respect, Queen Mother, I was speaking to the king…” Balder says with a small trace of disrespect toward Frigga.
Turning his eyes back to Thor, who didn’t look happy about his mother’s treatment, Balder spoke further.
“The realms have no respect or fear for their rulers any longer. Although they are our realms in name, each one has a ruler who governs as if they were King! There is only one king and he is of Asgard!” Balder’s voice gets heated as he passionately spoke his mind.
“Balder, I understand your position very well.” Thor finally speaks. “You’re the third son in your family, so you won’t inherit much, but you are a powerful soldier. A war would give you the opportunity to rise in the ranks and make a name for yourself outside of your family.”
Balder flinched as he heard Thor speak all of his insecurities and motivations.
“I know this because I used to think in the same way.” Thor says as he frowned at his past actions. “I thought that I could never live up to my father, both as a king and a warrior, but war brings nothing but pain and death to all sides.”
“Then what am I supposed to do…” Balder grinds his teeth and clenches his fists.
“Might I suggest something?” Peter says as he walks up, making his presence known.
Instantly, he and MJ, who was captivated by the architecture of the palace, were surrounded by spear-wielding Einherjar guards.
“Umm…” MJ hummed as she poked the tip of a spear with her finger. “Are you sure we’re supposed to be here?”
“My friend!” Thor shot out of his seat and rushed over to Peter, pushing past his own guards.
“Yo!” Peter waves as Thor picks him up in a powerful hug.
“What a wonderful surprise!” Thor says as he drops Peter and looks toward MJ. “Who might this be?”
“This is my wife, Silk.” Peter says with a smirk under his mask.
“No, we’re-” MJ tries to clarify but…
“The Spider has a wife!?” Thor shouts in shock.
“Yes, we’ve been married for 20 years.” Peter says as MJ elbows him in the ribs.
“You said you had a suggestion?” Frigga asks as Balder stood there, annoyed that his audience with the king has been sidetracked.
“Yes.” Peter says as he looks toward Balder. “If you want to make use of your power as a warrior, then leave Asgard and make a name for yourself somewhere else. The universe is full of conflict and opportunities.”
“…but I’ve sworn my loyalty to the king.” He says uncertainly.
“You can be loyal to Thor without being in Asgard.” Peter says with a shrug.
“Haha!” Thor laughs boisterously as he pats Peter on the shoulder. “Good idea, Spider.”
Looking at Balder, Thor’s demeanor shifted to that of a proud king.
“Balder Freyson, I hereby order you to travel the universe and make a name for yourself. Fight for good and deliver justice to the wicked in my name.” Thor decrees.
“…” Balder stood rooted to the floor in shock.
“Be sure to visit your family before leaving.” Frigga says with a stern look. “I don’t want to hear General Frey complain about us sending his son off without saying goodbye.”
“Y-Yes, your Majesty.” Balder stutters as he bows and paces out of the room, growing more excited by the second.
“Thank you, my friend.” Thor says as the door shut behind Balder. “Maybe you should help me with Amora as well. She’s been another thorn in my side lately…”
“I’m not here to solve your woman problems.” Peter says as he walks past Thor. “Hello, Frigga. Has Odin’s condition improved?”
“Yes, Odinsleep has done wonders without any interruptions.” Frigga nods.
“Speaking of interruptions.” Peter says as he takes out his phone and opens his photos. “I met Loki on earth.”
Holding out his phone, Peter showed a photo of Loki eating a slice of pizza on the busy streets of New York City.
“!” Frigga rushed down the stairs from the throne to get a good look. “He looks so different…”
“Haha!” Thor laughed as he took a look as well. “My pompous brother looks like a human!”
“Yeah, he took after you as well.” Peter says as he swipes to a picture of Loki and Jessica standing together.
“Is that his beloved?” Frigga asks curiously.
“Not yet.” Peter says as he swipes through a few more pictures.
“I see…” Frigga nodded as she knew her son well.
“Yes, Loki has always been a bit of a coward when it came to women.” Thor speaks the words that his mother held back. “He once had a crush on Lady Sif for years, but never told her or anyone for that matter.”
“He told me.” Frigga says as she sends a reprimanding glare to her eldest son. “Now stop airing your brother’s private business.”
“Well, at least we know Loki is doing well.” Thor says as he looks away from his mother’s glare.
“Yes, in fact, he’s a sort of honorary member of the Avengers at the moment.” Peter says, shocking the god-like mother and son.
…
After answering a bunch of questions about Loki, Thor asked something unrelated to his brother.
“Are you only here to tell us about Loki or will you be staying?” He asks, hoping to spend some time with his spidery friend.
“Actually…”
