Taken From Destiny

Chapter 6

Loki's POV

I sat in my chambers listening to Thor and Frigga lecture me. Thor threatened to have me thrown in the dungeons but Frigga wouldn't allow it. I stormed out, sick of their nonsense. I went to the bifrost room to consult Heimdall. He stood rigid when he saw me, I guess he's still upset I froze him.

"I mean you no harm, Heimdall. I just want to know.... if you can see.. heather." I said embarrassed. He raised a brow.

"Yes I can see her now that Laufey no longer shields her. and i can see her new friend. Actually they should be arriving any minute through your.. secret passage." He told me.

"Why??" I asked.

"ask her yourself" he snapped. I turned around and saw two small figures at the entrance.

"Hello Loki" heather smiled. "This is Brianna. can you take me to your... um my mother?" she asked.

"Of course," I smiled. I led them to the throne room to Frigga and she almost collapsed at the sight of heather. She engulfed her in a hug.

"Mother, I've been gone all of 4 hours" heather laughed. I let a slight chuckle escape my lips.

"It seems so much longer than that sweetheart" Frigga smiled. "Who's this?"

"This is-"

"Brianna???" Thor asked coming in. "It cannot be!"

"Thor!" Brianna yelled running into his arms. Heather smirked at her. I remember her now, she used to teach heather how to control fire and they would try to light me on fire. not to kill me of course. Brianna had the biggest crush on Thor and used to follow us around all day. She was so distraught when heather was taken that she had to be sent back to Muspelheim.

"Won't they be missing you in Jotunheim, sister?" Thor asked heather.

"No, they can manage for ten minutes." She sighed. "Brianna got cast out from Muspelheim for a ridiculous reason. I would let her stay with me but I don't think my citizens would like that. I was wondering if she might stay here?" heather asked Frigga but Thor answered for her.

"Of course! it will be marvelous to have her back! of course we need you back too" he smiled. Brianna blushed and heather laughed. It was like our childhood all over again. Then heather was robbed of hers and given the one I was robbed of. Heather turned and hugged Frigga and Thor, then Brianna. she looked at me.

"You don't really seem like a huggy guy," she laughed.

"I'm always open to try something new" I smiled. She wrapped her arms around my waist, not being able to reach my shoulders. I laughed and embraced her.

"Bring me to the passage?" she asked looking up at me. I nodded and looked at Frigga who was smiling at me. Thor was too busy with Brianna, catching up on everything. We got in the boat and sailed towards the passage. "So.. how did you find out?"

"Find out what?" I asked.

"That you were a Jotun" she said.

"It's in the past." I sighed. She nodded and turned away.

"You were always different from Thor, when we were younger. I knew something was off but I was too young to process it into any sense. If it means anything, I think you'd make an amazing king" she smiled softly.

"Thank you Heather" I replied. Once at the passage she changed back into her icy form. I mirrored her image and changed. She smiled sympathetically at me.

"Want to come with me? just for a while?" she asked. "It's pretty boring"

"Um I uh guess so" I said. We went through and landed in the frosty Jotunheim. She went to the palace throne room and told her guards she was having a guest and not to be bothered. We went to her room and sat down.

"I've missed you. I mean, I've missed everyone ever since I started to remember," she said shyly.

"We have all missed you too. I never understood why Odin said he sent you away. You seemed more than fine to me. Your dark curls framed your small face and made your light eyes stand out. I remember when you first tried to walk you would hold onto me. I tried to help but you'd always go limp and i would pick you up" I smiled at the memory. I was only two years older than her but I remember perfectly.

"You were a great brother to me, better than my real one," she sighed. I snaked my arm around her shoulder and she laid her head on mine. We were interrupted by a knock on the doors.

"My queen, it is your one true love! open up!" the voice yelled. One true love?!

"Ugh why won't he leave me alone!" she whined.

"I'll take care of it" I smirked. I opened the door and looked up at blue face. He looked confused.

"Who are you?" he snapped.

"None of your business. Now leave the queen and I to our....business" I smirked. He looked angry.

"She is my betrothed! I have a right to see her." He yelled. At in instance heather was at my side.

"I am not anything but your queen! now leave us! I do not want to see you again!" she screamed. He bowed and left in a haste. Heather sank back into her bed and sighed. "This is just too much"

"I understand. what's your plan? surely you can't stay here forever, Frigga would steal you back herself" I said. A small smile formed on her lips.

"I'm not sure yet, maybe fake my death. but that wouldn't stop them from attacking Asgard. Unless Asgard did something to help Jotunheim." she said.

"Maybe I.... could stay as king, and you return to Asgard." I suggested.

"No! Frigga loves you just as much as me. we will find a way to both return to Asgard" she said.

"Alright, If that's what you want." I sighed. We left it at that and I laid next to her. Her breathing slowed as she fell asleep. She looked like a blue angel. I fell asleep soon after that. I woke up and she was staring at me. She blushed and looked away.

"Sorry, i um" she stuttered.

"Its fine" I chuckled. "I should probably get back to Asgard before Frigga starts to worry. everything has been so much on her lately,"

"I will take you," she smiled. She linked arms with mine and we went to the passage.

"Goodbye for now Loki" she sighed. She peeked up at me under her long eyelashes. If I didn't know any better I'd say that she was sad to see me go.

"Goodbye.... for now" I said adding emphasis to the last part. I kissed her forehead and she blushed. I entered the passage and went back to Asgard. I saw Heimdall and he smirked at me. He couldn't see me but I'm sure he could see Heather in his head. Nosy old man.
