*Loki's POV*

My daughter Hela and I ran through the halls of the palace hand in hand. My only child was still very young but she had learned so much since the day she was born, she was a true trickster, a master of mischief and a true beauty.

We had just played a trick on the All Father, while he was eating we turned the knives and forks into snakes, then the water into spiders. His shouts were music to my ears.

I picked Hela up and hurried into my chambers. I sat on the bed and placed Hela on my lap.

Hela giggled. "All Father angry," She stated.

I chuckled. "Yes my child I think he is but you did very well," I told her and pressed a soft kiss the her head. "Have you been learning your music?"

She nodded and hopped off my lap she ran to a chest in my room and looked in it, her brown locks fell forward shielding her face. Hela pulled out a small harp and ran back over to me and sat on the bed next to me, she plucked a few strings playing a soft melody.

Hela stopped and looked at me. "Don't know anymore," She told me.

I smiled and rested a hand on her head. "That was beautiful Hela," I told her.

She hugged me around my neck tightly. "I love you Daddy," She told me and kissed my cheek.

*BANG*

My chamber door slammed open to reveal Odin and a few of his guards.

"LOKI!" Odin shouted.

I chuckled softly. "Twas only a little fun," I told him.

Odin growled. "I've had enough of your tricks Loki, you shall be stripped of the only thing you have left, then we'll see how you behave!" He barked at me.

I held Hela close to me. What did he mean?

"Guards take the child and bring her to the throne room!" Odin ordered the Guards. "Keep Loki in here!"

"NO!" I yelled and tried to get away.

The Guards grabbed Hela and pulled her away from me. "DADDY!" Hela screamed as a Guard carried her out.

"NO HELA!" I shouted as the Guard pinned me down... "I LOVE YOU MY CHILD, I LOVE YOU!"

What was going to happen to my child?

*3RD POV*

A Guard carried the small child into the throne room then placed her on her feet in front of Odin and Frigga. Frigga rushed over to the crying child and held her close.

"Hush child," Frigga cooed. "Everything shall be alright."

"Hela step forward!" Odin told her.

Hela sniffled as she walked away from Frigga. Odin looked down at the child and saw Loki when he was a boy.

Odin sighed. "Hela know that I am not angry with you but your Father," He told her softly. "Child you will be the Goddess of Music, in time your voice will make warriors cry, your musical talents will amaze all. I am not trying to hurt you Hela, I'm protecting you from your Father, he will only pull you away from your true path."

Hela's checks were red with tear stains all over them. "I-I want my D-Daddy," She cried.

Odin knelt down to her level. "One day Hela, one day your Father will come for you," He told her. "THOR COME IN!"

Thor pushed open the golden doors and walked over to her niece, Father and Mother.

Thor knelt down. "Yes my King?" He asked.

"Rise my son," Odin told him. "You will take Hela to Heimdall, he'll know where to send her."

Thor looked at his weeping niece. "Of course," He muttered and picked Hela up.

Frigga pressed a tender kiss to the childs head. "We love you Hela, we shall see you again soon," She whispered.

Thor walked away with Hela, she peeked over his should and watched as the king and queen disappeared behind the golden door. Thor and Hela sat on a horse and quickly rode to Heimdall.

"Thor, young Hela greetings," Heimdall said and bowed slightly.

Thor hopped off his horse and helped Hela down. "My Father says you know where to send Hela?" He asked.

Heimdall sighed. "Yes I do, she shall be safe there," He told him. "I'm afraid I must say that no one from this realm will see Hela for a very long time, this is a world the All Father does not want Asguardian people to travel to but I shall watch over her."

Thor nodded and knelt down in front of hela and took her small hands in his. "Hela, you must do good. Try to forget all that your Father has taught you, he does love you, he loves you very much, as do the rest of us but for now it's farewell. We will meet again soon I promise!" Thor explained and pulled her into a hug.

Hela nodded and pulled away. "Will tell Daddy I love him?" She asked in a small voice.

Thor smiled sadly. "I shall remind him everyday," He boomed.

"Hela... it's time," Heimdall told her sadly.

Hela stood in front of the portal, her gold dress blowing, her hair being messed by the wind and in a matter of seconds the portal took the little girl to another realm...

Back at the palace Loki was realised and he marched straight to The All Father.

Loki pushed the gold doors open and walked towards his Father and Mother.

"WHERE IS SHE?" Loki yelled. "WHERE IS MY CHILD?"

Frigga stepped towards her son stopping him from going any further. "Loki I have banished her from this realm until the time is right for her to return," Odin told him calmly.

"How dare you take my child away!" Loki spat.

"I AM THE KING AND YOU ARE MY SON I SHALL DO WHAT I THINK IS RIGHT FOR OUR FAMILY!" Odin boomed.

Loki glared daggers at the All Father. "You never liked Hela or her Mother, you always have something against anything that is part of me!" He yelled. "You will regret this day, I will have my child back!"

Loki stormed out of the throne room and went to his room. Loki collapsed on his bed and cried, he looked over the books Hela had once brought in for him to read to her, her drawings and her little contraptions that she had made and showed him. Loki's eyes landed on the little harp that was on the floor, he picked up the small instrument and plucked a sting... Loki put a spell on the harp.

"Only the person with half my blood and half Sigyn's will be able to play this beloved instrument," Loki whispered and sat the instrument on the chair in his room. "I will find you Hela, no matter long it takes, not matter how many worlds I have to destroy, I will find you again!"
