You pushed at the air behind you, and propelled forward, and then held the air beneath you in one place. You stayed floating, and cheered happily. Thor clapped.

"Well done!" He laughed.

"I'm flying!" You squealed.

"That you are."

"Thor... I'm flying! This is awesome!" You cheered.

"In my living room? Seriously?" Tony said, striding in.

"Hey, I'm not hurting anyone." You sighed.

"Yes you are. The dustmites in the carpet."

"Since when was the carpet important to you?"

"It's really not, and don't sass you're mother like that."

"Yes mommy." You sneered. Tony stuck his middle finger up at you and you laughed again. The elevator dinged behind you and you dropped to the floor. "Fuck!" You shouted, landing on your behind. You turned your head around to see your brother and best friend in the doorway.

"Graceful." Your brother said. "Can I do that?"

"Try. Push at the air." You said.

"Really? It's that easy?" He asked. You nodded, standing up. He pushed his hand towards you, and it felt like you'd been slapped, the displaced air hit you that hard.

"Ow!" You snapped. Thor smiled.

"The magic runs in the family." He said. Your brother shot his fist into the air.

"So where were you?" You asked him, hands on your hips.

"Looking for a cheap apartment."

"In New York?"

"I know, but I found one."

"And you brought my best friend with you."

"He wants me to help him with the bills." She sighed. "And it's a fair point, actually." She said, walking over to the couch. "So where's Mister Mischief?"

"Right here." Loki said, walking in through the doorway to the balcony. He glanced up at you. "Do not fall of these ones please, I might cry."

"Again." Thor chimed in.

"Shut up you imbecile."

"It's true, isn't it?"

"I said shut up." Loki hissed. You stepped in between them before someone got hurt.

"Wait, my sister fell of a balcony!?" Your brother cried.

"And burst into flames and started flying again!" You said, before he started punching Loki for letting it happen. Your brother glared at Loki. Loki looked at you carefully.

"I spoke with Jareth. He's been in the Underground for a few days now. His servants repaired all the damage for him. We're free to go anytime." He spoke. You nodded.

"You're leaving!?" Your brother, Best friend, Tony and Thor all shouted.

"Well we need to. We can't stay here and have Lucifer attack and kill even more people." You said.

"But babe," Your friend said. "You know what he did to our home. If he attacks and finds you're not here, he'll destroy everything. Don't go yet. You and the frosty asshole are the best chance we have."

"I am not an asshole." Loki snapped.

"Yes you are. An asshole who has a habit of flirting to get himself out of trouble." You said.

"That doesn't help."

"It will later." You said. Loki scoffed. Your best friend started laughing and your brother was fuming. Thor was howling with laughter and Tony just looked impressed and annoyed. "What! What did I say!?"

"You made a dirty joke." Tony said.

"I did?"

"Yeah. And if you can't see, this is the face of motherly disapproval."

"Tony's our mom?" Your brother asked, confused.

"I'll explain later." Tony answered.

Pepper Potts strolled through the charred streets. Well.. this was quite a development. Something materialised in front of her.

"Miss Potts." Lucifer said. A teenage boy appeared at his side.

"Lucifer. You sounded more powerful than you appear."

"If that's true," He said, running his hands together, before holding a fireball right in front of Pepper's face. "Give me one reason why I shouldn't kill you."

"Because I know where Satana and Loki are."

"On Cyndaris." Lucifer said.

"No, my lord. They left two days ago." The teenage boy said. Lucifer growled at him.

"Why didn't you tell me this, Earl?" He hissed.

"I tried, and you dismissed me before I had the chance."

"Whatever." Lucifer groaned. "Well Miss Potts-"

"Mary." Pepper snapped.

"Mary, then, where are they?"

"Stark Tower. However, I need to warn you that Satana has further developed her sorcery." Mary said, swatting Lucifer's arm away. "Tony has no idea I'm here."

"Good. Raphael, talk her through the process of ambush. I'm off to see the general." Lucifer said, turning away and leaving. The teenage boy stared up at the strawberry blonde.

"Whatever you do, leave the god for me. I want to crush him." Raphael hissed.

"Only if I get to him first." Mary smirked.

"Deal." Raphael answered, now smirking with her.
