Loki sat on his throne, tapping his fingers and staring out into the distance, he was thinking about Eerika, the prophesy, the twins. How could he get them back? Mischievous Loki would know the answer straight away, but he couldn't give in to that, if he did there would be no good Eerika to pull him back, the twins would be born into darkness and Eerika could die, he would lose her.

He needed to summon Eerika somehow, tell her what the queen told him, he'd have to get into the mind of the God of mischief without becoming him. Though if Eerika believed he had turned bad then she would come back, but how could he make her think he had gone rotten? Gossip.

Loki summoned Sif and gave her instructions to go to the women in the washing room, she'd tell them a spot of gossip about him, the gossip would spread and then Eerika might get word of it, it was an amateur plan but it would have to do. Sif went to the washing room with one of her battle garments, as she entered the room there were linens hanging all around her, in the middle of the room were three women, washing clothes and linens in buckets of water.

"What have you got there?"

"My under garments, the ones I wear for battle, someone got me with a sword and it got all bloody, do you mind?" She said outstretching her arm with the garments in her hand.

One of the women smiled and took the material from her, dunking it in her bucket "my pleasure lady Sif, bet you're glad to be back here again"

"Yes I am, but to be honest this was just an excuse to get away from the King for a while, that's the only part I don't like about being back, it's him"

"Oh really?" She leaned forward slightly, she was a large woman with grey hair wrapped up in rags and dressed in a simple faded yellow dress "how come?"

"He's gone back to his old ways, I saw him doing terrible things to the guards, picking them off for fun, I've heard him talking about going back to Midgard and finishing what he started, he's going to the Bifrost tomorrow night"

The woman's eyes opened wide satisfyingly, they were filling up with all the juicy gossip, her smile stretching up to her ears, she looked like an old witch "don't worry dear, we won't tell a soul" Sif smiled gratefully and left, the plan was going great. On the next night Loki just had to wait and see if she would come.

Eerika's P.O.V

I heard from a local before I placed a nasty little curse on her, that Loki had gone back to his old tricks, I was curious as to why she would say that, so I followed the rest of the gossip and met Loki at the Bifrost, he was there as expected, Endre was no where to be seen, it was just me and him "which city should I destroy first?"

"Drop the act my love, I know you're not the God of mischief again, like you'd be so sloppy as to let gossip run a muck, especially after what happened last time. You just wanted to get me here didn't you? But why?"

"I needed to speak with you"

"So, speak" I faked a smile.

"I went to the Queen of Vanaheim, I asked her our future, she says we are to have twins" twins? "And they will be the most powerful of us all" most powerful? I tried to hide my smile "but, if they are born from darkness, they shall destroy the entire universe and you, you will die as you give birth" I narrowed my eyes, staring into his, I knew when Loki was lying, and he wasn't "I'm not lying, I promise you. But your own children will kill you if you don't do something about it"

"And then they will destroy the whole universe?"

"Yes"

"Sounds... Extravagant! That's my babies!" I grinned, the news was delicious, my children will be the end to the whole universe, ugh, I was so proud!
