Devotion For Salvation (LokixSigyn) ON HOLD

Chapter 20: Reunited

I apologized to Frigga about getting sour with her, she forgave me as always and asked me to sit with her and wait for her sons' arrival. We've been waiting for nearly an hour and my anxiety wasn't changing one bit.

"Are you nervous, dear?" Frigga places her hand on mine.

"I'm terrified." I let out a nervous laugh and look at Odin. He nods at me and looks away. He loves Loki, I'm sure he wouldn't punish him to much for what he did. He'll let Loki explain.

Only Frigga, Odin, a few guards, and I are in the room. I don't even know what room this is, it isn't the palaces usual gold but more dark. Must be where the dark magic is performed mostly, to contain it. Dark magic was unpredictable sometimes. I knew that but didn't realize that until a month after my incident. No one told me I could've died, they took that chance on me.

"They're coming!" Odin rushes to the centre of the room and places his staff into a hole. He bends over and leans on the staff and starts humming to himself. A singing enchantment? Dark magic is very unpredictable.

Frigga lifts me from my chair and holds me close as the room starts to shake. I hold on to her and burry my head in her chest.

Two figures begin to form on the sides of Odin. My heart begins to race faster than ever before. I was finally going to see Loki. The sun to my stars. I was no longer depressed or scared. I felt whole again but it wasn't meant to last.

Loki is in chains and has something covering his mouth. He is scratched and bruised to death. His hair has grown past his shoulders and he's more pale than I have ever seen him before. It's only been a year and he looks as if he's aged twenty. I almost thought it wasn't my Loki.

I stand in Frigga's arms paralyzed. I couldn't move or breathe.

Loki stands still staring at his feet. I wanted to hug him but I also wanted him to hold me back. He couldn't touch me or kiss me in those chains.

The guards walk towards Loki and grab each of his arms and try take him away. 

"Stop! What do you think you're doing?!" Frigga lets me go and pleads to the guards holding her arm up and forming a blue ball of fire in her palm. They stop and look at her in fear.

"Loki is under arrest and he will be placed in the dungeons." Thor finally speaks. Frigga glares at her son in horror.

Loki looks at Thor and to me.

It felt like looking into his eyes for the first time. His stern look is wiped away with a sad one. His eyes fill with tears and so do mine. I needed to hold him.

"Loki." I could finally feel my heart beat and that's all I could say. I couldn't beg Odin not to let him go to the dungeons. He was guilty.

Hearing my heart broken voice is all it took for Loki to break through and guards' hands and straight to me. I could almost feel him now.

Thor stops me from going to Loki and Odin stops Loki.

"Let go of me, Thor!" I struggle to push him off of me.

"I can't let you near him." I could hear Loki mumbling, trying to speak under that mouth piece. He's almost shouting.

I stop trying to get to Loki and stare at him. Odin won't even let Frigga touch him. I wasn't prepared for this. I thought I would get to kiss Loki or even hug him but I can't even touch him.
