Unfinished Gems

An Angel and a Trickster - 5

Chapter 5

~

Angel woke up with a surprise for her birthday.

Sirius, Remus, and the twins were all there to celebrate it with her, despite the fact that only Loki had any real idea where they were after he had moved them away from Tahiti. She only had to see the cherry blossoms to know they were back in Japan.

"Surprise!" they shouted.

She grinned.

Sirius had gotten her a new broom, as he had seen one in Japan that had outstripped the Firebolt that it wasn't even funny.

Remus had gotten her an odd set of keys he had found inside his vaults, and he had no idea where they had come from. He had no use for them so he decided they would be an interesting gift to Angel.

The twins gave her partial ownership of the shop, and she immediately signed the paperwork. Now if anything happened to the twins, she would be responsible for the shop and all of its merchandise.

Loki grinned and waved behind them. There were three larges cages that were covered up.

When she opened them she practically squealed in fangirl delight.

There inside were exact living copies of Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres, down to their elemental magic.

Loki had actually gone down to the first magical nerds he could find for help in making them, including their attacks.

Moltres was something like a cross between a regular phoenix and a fire elemental bird. Zapdos was like a thunderbird and a lightning elemental. Articuno had snow woman powers and was an ice elemental.

Angel let them out of the cages, and they immediately started circling her.

Loki had been quite thorough before he made them.

"Uh, what exactly are those?" asked Sirius somewhat nervously.

"Three special birds. Angel asked for the specifically," shrugged Loki. All he knew was that they represented the seasons or something and that each ruled over a specific element.

Sirius looked at how happy Angel was and smirked.

"Well if you weren't going to get lucky before, you sure as hell are going to be now," he said.

Loki saw the look in Angel's eyes and smirked as well.

Loki cornered Angel, who was wearing something so sheer that there was no way she would wear it in public. He grinned. Time for his half of the birthday celebrations.

Sirius lifted his head when he heard sounds coming from the bedroom. He grinned outright when he heard his goddaughter's voice past the very strong silencing ward Loki had thrown up. Judging by that sound, Loki got lucky.

When the two walked out the next morning, Angel had trouble sitting. Sirius gave Loki a thumb's up, and got a grin in return.

Before Loki could say anything, his girlfriend yanked his head down and looked him in the eye.

"Why do I have the feeling you're not begging for round...which one was it again?"

"Don't know. Don't care. But under no circumstances are you discussing my sex life to that raving lunatic I call a dogfather. If you do, I'm cutting you off for a week for each infraction. Are...We...Clear?" she growled.

Loki gulped.

"Crystal."

Sirius pouted, though this was hilarious in its own right. He had to say it.
