Loki quickly got a few small weapons and headed down to the prisons, in a short time Thor was with him with mjölnir in hand. "Don't you think that's a little unnecessary? It's just a prison break" loki asked, as they hurried down. Prison breaks were not the most threatening thing that could happen, and were normally pretty easy to contain. "Well they got out somehow Didn't they?" Thor said back. "Fair point" loki said. They entered the dungeons, there were soldiers and prisoners fighting each other, and because of the narrow space, it was pretty chaotic. Normally there were only a few prisoners who'd get out, but this time most of them were. Loki was annoyed, lately his life was just one big problem after another, and he was tired of it.
"Look, guys, I just won a war. Can you all just go back to your cells and break out after I get a few weeks of rest?" asked sarcastically, but he knew it wouldn't work, he was trying to make himself laugh more than anything, and of course the fighting just kept going on. "I take that as a 'no' then" he said with the same sarcasm. Even though The prisoners didn't have real weapons, they were able to hurt a lot of the soldiers, and whenever a soldier was hurt, they tried to take their weapon. Loki realized that a few of them were starting to get past the entrance and into the palace, he ran up past them and was able to keep them out, he went back down and shut the doors sealing them so as to not let anyone else out. He felt a hard blow to the back of his head, and fell to the ground and quickly turned to see who it was and was shocked to see that it was an Asgardian soldier who hit him. He aimlessly reached out and grabbed the first thing he felt and crashed it against the soldiers head, knocking him out.
'Well now we know who let them out' he thought, he grabbed the weapons off the soldier, not because he really needed them, he just didn't want anyone else to have them. "Thor!" He called, he didn't Really know where Thor was, but knew he had to tell him that at least the one soldier was in on the break. "What?" Thor called back, fighting off several prisoners at once.
"Some Of the solders are in on it" he said, also fighting a few at a time.
He didn't take the time to go into detail, he didn't really know much more than that, and was also preoccupied. After that, they were able to tell pretty easily who the soldiers were, they knew loki found out, so they stopped trying to be discrete, and just were attacking along with the prisoners. There were only four of them, but still, they had weapons that they were giving to the prisoners, which made fighting them slightly more difficult. Loki felt someone crash against him, he lost his footing and fell to the ground, hit his head on the stone floor, and fell unconscious. =*****=
He felt someone gripping his shoulders and shaking him slightly.
"Loki. Wake up" he could barely make out Thor's voice, his eyes were slowly opening, but his vision was blurry and he could hardly see.
"Loki, come on, I need your help" Thor said, shaking him awake. Loki groaned a little as he turned over so he could sit himself up.
"What happened?" He said, trying to see clearly. The fight was over and he was just laying on the ground outside a cell.
"I'll tell you later. I need your help though. Do you remember all the prisoners who tried to get into the palace?" Thor asked, loki thought for a moment, he was having trouble recalling what happened and his head was pounding. "I think so, why?" He asked. "One of the prisoners escaped" Thor told him, caution in his tone.
"Who?" Loki asked. He was finally coming back to his senses. "I don't know, I didn't see, that's what I was hoping you could help with. You always kept track of who was in which cell" he told him. Loki got up and Thor led him to the cell that used to hold the escaped prisoner. The minute loki saw which cell was empty, his heart skipped a beat, then started racing, his breathing grew heavy. The person he thought he'd never have to deal with again was coming back. "Who was it?" Thor asked. Loki looked at him and knew the color had left his face.
"It was-" he started "Eira" he said as he bolted out of the dungeons and into the palace, running as fast as he could. "Eira!" He yelled coming to their bedroom door. He opened the door and ran in, he saw Eira laying in bed. "Eira wake up!" He yelled, shaking her a bit, but she didn't respond.
"Eira! Wake up!" He yelled again, this time louder.
"What? What's wrong?" She asked sleepily as she woke up. "oh Thank- you're okay" he said as he hugged her, panting for breath.
"Why wouldn't I be? What happened?" She asked as she sat up, not knowing what was happening.
"During the break- I don't really know what happened but-" he was trying to form a complete thought, but finding it difficult.
"He got out" he finally said.
"Who did?" She asked with concern, although she still wasn't sure what was going on. He put his hand on her waist where the was still a scar.
"Gollum" he replied. Eira felt a shiver go up her spine, gollum- the man who stabbed her a long time ago- was an insane and devoted worker for her sister, and now he was out.
