Always and Forever | Loki Laufeyson

Kapittel (22) Tjueto ~ Unbelievable, Unreasonable, Hardass

The next morning, I was woken by a fast and heavy knocking on my door, making me shoot up in bed.

"Who is it?" I yelled out, my eyebrows furrowed as I stared at the large door.

"Lady Alex? It is Thor and Inga! May we come in? It is an emergency." Thor's voice boomed through the door.

"Yeah, yeah come on in." I quickly got out of bed, throwing on a robe that was thrown at the end of my bed.

Thor's eyes popped out of his head a bit upon seeing me, quickly turning around. "Oh, my apologies, Lady Alex I did not realize you were still indecent."

"Thor, turn back around. My training clothes on Earth have less than this." I rolled my eyes, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Yes, well, these are your night clothes. It's different." He scratched the back of his head as Inga made her way to my closet.

"So, why did you come? You said it was urgent."

"Oh! Yes!" Thor quickly turned around, seeming to forget his own words from only a few seconds ago. "Father is sending Loki to the dungeons."

"What?!" I yelled. "But he hasn't done anything!"

Thor didn't say anything, instead having a guilty look on his face.

"What happened?" I groaned, rubbing my hand on my face.

"Well, while you were gone, he got extremely bored being confined to just his room. So... he played a prank. Or five."

"On who? What did he do?"

"Well, the first one was on his guards. He made a small explosion go off in his room, making them run in. When they opened the door, a bucket of slime was dumped on their heads.

"Well, that's just cliché," I mumbled, walking over to where Inga was holding a dress out for me to put on.

"For the next, he escaped his room, using illusions all over the palace to throw the guards off, sending them on a wild goose chase. He was of course in his room the whole time."

"Juvenile," I said threw the bathroom door as I washed my face.

"Then, he set some snakes loose on the training grounds."

"I don't think I've ever heard so many grown men scream," Inga told me as I walked out the bathroom door, getting Inga to help lace up the dark blue corset that went with the shade lighter dress.

"Okay, so he just did a few silly little pranks? Why is he going to the dungeons for it?" I asked.

"Well, father did not wish for it to continue, and he did not believe it would stop with your return, so he felt it was the best course of action."

"Such a hardass," I grumbled as Thor led me to the throne room.

"Oh, and he did send two of the Warriors Three to the healers."

"What?! Why?" My eyes practically popped out of their sockets.

"I took him with me to spar with them and Lady Sif, and they decided to do a two vs one, Fandril and Volstagg vs Loki. A small bit of magic was allowed for him since he was against them both, and he ended up winning... after stabbing Fandril in the stomach and slicing Volstagg in his leg, causing both to bleed intensely."

"Holy shit," I mumbled quietly as we came up to the large double throne doors.

The two of us immediately entered, kneeling before Odin and Frigga before being told to rise.

"Thor, you may come up and stand with us. Lady Alex, you shall stay down there with the prisoner, once he enters." Odin told us. Thor and I glanced at each other, me giving Thor a small nod to tell him to do what his father said.
