Tonya has been recovering of the infliction done by the scepter. Slowly and gradually she is returning to her normal self. The scepter brought out the worst in Tonya in way ruining her public image and her image of herself. I never saw a mortal become so afraid of themselves from handling any alien related machinery for so long. Tonya doesn't trust herself anymore.

A reason why she has since resigned as member of the Avengers.

"The Infinity gem should be taken to Asgard," I said. "But without the scepter."

I summon a powerful armored lantern into my hand, take the scepter from Shawn, yank out the infinity stone, and place it into the lantern. I close the lid to the lantern quickly before it can blind me. I hand it back to Shawn.

"...A lantern," Shawn said. "Really?"

"Best I can do," I said. "So that no one else is poked by the scepter again."

I turn the scepter into dust.

"This reminds me of a Scooby Doo cartoon," Shawn said.

"I do not know what Scooby Doo is," I said.

"...Oldy," Shawn said. "It is a classic!"

"Not that classic when I have no idea what it is," I said. "Are you sure about taking the lantern to Asgard?"

Shawn nods.

"That is where it belongs," Shawn said.

"I cannot promise a good handshake from Sci," I said. "He...well, doesn't like mortals very much."

"He is my really great Nephew," Shawn said. "I want to be on Asgard itself, for real, and to stay there for awhile...I want to be there long as I can."

I had a short lived smile.

"Take fifteen steps back," I said.

"Huh?" Shawn said.

"We have a gatekeeper," I remind him. "And I am not going back."

"How big of a step?" Shawn asks

"Big," I said. Shawn takes many steps back. "Good!" I shake my hand. "That is about right there, Thorson!"

"Well...who is the new gatekeeper?" Shawn asks.

"Temdall," I said. "Temdall Heimdalldottir."

Shawn looks up towards the sky.

"Temdall, take me to Asgard!" Shawn shouts.

I watch a beam of light take Shawn away.

"Good luck and goodbye,Shawn Thorson," I said, with a short wave watching the man wielding the mjolnir dart off into the sky.

I cannot be sure if Shawn heard a word I said.

I have a bucket list to join Knight on.

Also the city in California has been so far in repairs by the Avengers and everyone else. Henry has come to realizing that really having a tight grip on the group on the team is not a wise choice. I turn away with my hands in pockets. I didn't divulge to Henry where the Hellicarrier is but the new generation of Avengers are getting back together what what had been lost. Elizame and George are head on getting SHIELD together as a way to negotiate between the government and them because they both have found a very bitter dislike towards the federal government.

HYDRA, oh HYDRA, it wants to bring Midgard into the new era of time designation with new species and mining for special gems hidden under the sea floor. Did they really want to find what hadn't been saved during the era where Midgard's continents transferred to floating islands above water? Skeletons among the treasure. Midgard is as advanced as it can get even with the climate floating above water. Some continents still remain from the era of water taking over acting as little resorts and keep sakes to the past.

People still lived there; just a thousand not that many.

Most of Midgard is above water in floating cities.
