Loki's Child

chapter 17: My Mom

*Hela's POV*

"My Queen new weapons are being made as we speak, all women and Children have been removed from the villages to a safe location!" A Guard told me.

I nodded. "Thank you, you may leave," I told him.

I sighed and held the staff tightly in my hands; This couldn't be real, I was actually controlling the kingdom? I stood up and left the throne room, I needed to go for a walk, I needed to clear my head.

Tomorrow we were going to go to war with my Brother, unbelievable really. As I walked I glanced around the detail the walls had, the small designs or patterns just looked beautiful, I headed out into the garden and looked at flowers the surrounded me; Esmond had told me the Frigga took care of this garden for many years, she would teach my Dad magic here too, apparently this place held many memorises...

I sat by the small pond and gently traced my finger on the top of the water; Suddenly a wave of pain fell over me, my head was pounding, I closed my eyes and splashed my face with water. I opened my eyes and I was in a room,  nursery?

"I know you will be girl, I can feel it," I heard a women say softly. I slowly made my way to the balcony and saw a women in a green dress, her hair was black and she was holding her pregnant belly. "Your Father and I have decided that we are going to name you Hela, our little Princess."

"Mom?" I asked softly.

My Mom looked at me and smiled brightly. I went over to her but a man walked past me and sat next to her placing his hand on her belly.

"Dad?" I asked.

"He is a strong one," My Dad stated.

My Mom laughed. "Loki I've told you she's a girl," She told him. "Our Hela."

My Dad laughed. "Of course," He said. "She will be beautiful, like you."

"I can't wait to see her at her first ball," She told him.

Tears filled my eyes; She never did. She wanted to but she couldn't, it's not fair!

My vision went blur and the pain in my head was back, I held my head and squeezed my eyes shut; The pain was almost unbearable!

"Sigyn you need to breathe," A voice spoke up.

My eyes shot open and I saw my Mom lying in bed, sweating, crying and in pain; No, please God no!

"It hurts!" My Mom cried.

The doors flung open revealing my Dad. "Sigyn!" He exclaimed and kneeled next to her, holding her hand then kissing her knuckles. "It will be okay, you both will be okay!"

*SCREAMING*

I looked away and covered my eyes; I don't want to hear this, I can't it's horrible!

*CRYING*

I turned and saw a small baby in a white blanket; Me!

I was in my Mothers arms, she was pale and looked very weak.

"Loki hold her please," My Mom told him weakly. "Hold our daughter."

My Dad picked the baby up and held her close. "She's so tiny," He whispered and kissed her head. "Our Hela."

"I love her so much," My Mom said weakly and gently touched the babies head. "I love her more than anything in all the realms."

I watched as he eyes slowly started to close, a tear escaped as her eye lids closed and her hand fell on the bed. I leaned against the wall and slid down it with my head in my hands, I just watched my Mother die... I watched her sip away right in front of me.

My Dad's eyes went wide as he held the baby close to his chest. "Sigyn?" He asked. "SIGYN NO!"

I closed my eyes and the pain in my head was back, my body went warm and I felt dizzy... Like I was spinning. Suddenly I jolted awake and I was back in the garden.

"Hela?" I heard my Dad; As I turned I saw him walk over to me. "Are you alright, you look a little shaken!"

I breathed out. "I think I just had some sort of vision," I told him. "I don't really know but I saw Mom."

Dad frowned. "What?" He asked.

I sniffled. "Dad I watched her die!" I cried. "It was horrible.

Dad wrapped his arms around me and kissed my head gently shushing me.

"It's alright," He told me. "Did you hear what she said?"

I nodded. "She told me she loved me," I told him. "Why did she have to die?"

"Hela your Mother brought you into this world knowing you were destined for greatness, she didn't want to leave you," He told me. "She wanted to be there for you, she wanted to see you walk, talk, dance, everything and in the end she still did. She is resting in peace, her spirit watching over you, guiding you."

I sniffled. "I will win this war!" I told him. "For her, for my Mother."

Dad kissed my head softly. "We are all here for you, ready at your command!" He told me.

I can do this, I have to do this. If I don't my Mom would have died for no reason and I can't let that happen!
