Soldier *Sequel to Empty*

Chapter Seventeen

Evangeline let her fingers roam across the cotton bandage. The healers said the whip lashes would heal for her quicker than Loki, for they had not been originally inflicted on her. It was infuriating. She wanted her Loki back. She wanted to find him before... before the torture becomes to much.
She hasn't the faintest clue of where he might be. She knew not of a land with a purple sky. But Frigga may.
She refused to go to Odin for help. He was a heartless bastard.

She has only meet the queen twice and it was the funeral and the invasion. But as of those to meetings, she liked the queen. Lady Frigga was Loki's favored parent and it made sense.
Evangeline picked up the grey dress from the edge of her bed she slipped it over her form. The gold trim on the sides caught her eye and stood out against her pale skin.
She searched for a brush on her mirror vanity, once she found one she brushed out her long black waves. She braided the sides of her hair away from her face. She applied a small amount of lip shine before standing. She was ready to see the queen.

Levain picked up some of the mess that scattered across his room. He decided it was well enough before he changed into a fresh set of clothes.
He slipped on his boots before he left the room. His shoulder length hair was loose and not tied back. He lost the ribbon he normally used and at the moment he didn't care.
Levain was bored. He didn't know where his sister was, he figured she was still on a quest to find knowledge about her fiancee's whereabouts.
He was walking down the hall when someone grabbed him by the collar of his shirt.
He let out a squawk of protest as he was pulled into a smaller hall.
It was a woman with black hair and silvery armour.
He stared wide eyed at her contemplating if he should blind her with the dust in his pocket or curse her with two left feet before she began speaking.

"I just want to speak don't turn me into a toad with your, voodoo gypsy magic-"

"Well that was just rude. Why would I turn you into a toad? Toads are disgusting creatures. I wouldn't exactly want to leave one in the house of Odin for lady Frigga to discover. Then squash. "

His ramble was cut short by her firm glare.
"Apologies." She amended. "I am lady Sif. I wanted to ask you something."

"I suppose if you let my shirt go I could answer." He quipped.
The woman looked down at her hands before releasing the hand full of shirt she had.
"Okay, you may ask."

"So you fancy Thor?"

"Pardon?" He furrowed his brows.

"That wasn't an answer."

He sighed.
"I do not know. Why is it your concern?" He snapped.

"Thor is a friend. I question all of his suitors. Except Jane Foster. That was a mistake I should have questioned her too."

"I am not a suitor lady Sif." His cheeks had begun to turn a light pink.
"I do not believe you. But, perhaps you are correct, Thor thinks highly of you. I don't wish you to hurt the oaf. He is a dear friend, even if he is as tough as he is, he is still kind."

Levin nodded.

"I think I understand."

"Good, carry on. "

And with that she walked away leaving Levain with his befuddled expression.
