"Hela!!!" I scream at the top of my lungs and within seconds hela appears by my side. Her eyes widen when she sees Sleip unconscious in my arms. "It's odin. He beat Sleip after he got back. He was waiting for him!" I scream with tears holding Sleip closer. Sleip groans shortly. Hela sighs with anger in her eyes then waves her hand vanishing sleips shirt. I could feel Hela shaking with anger as she took in the bruises cuts and lashes that covered sleips chest. "I'm going to kill him." Hela grumbles darkly as the air gets an instant chill to it. "You have to help him Hela please!" I sob gripping sleips hand tightly in my own. I didn't want to lose him. Especially not now. "I will see what I can do." Hela sighs before she quickly gets to work slowing the bleeding. I help her as much as I could. But there was just to many wounds on sleips chest to heal them all in one go. "His body needs to rest. He won't have the strength to maintain his human form for much longer." Hela sighs. There was fury in her eyes. The kind of fury that made me shiver. "He can't go back Hela. Odin will kill him!" I whimper. Hela sighs and pulls me into a hug as I whimper softly. "Let him rest for now. When he wakes we will deal with that." Hela says. I nod and slowly me and Hela take Sleip down to my room. As soon as we have Sleip on the bed his human form dissolves away and Sleip shifts back into his true form.

Hela sighs and paces. I knew how angry she was and I was too. Helas eyes glowed with the fire she felt to Odin for what he had done. I almost felt sorry for Odin. For when he woke from the Odin sleep he was going to have to face Helas wrath. And that was not something to be taken lightly. Hela was terrifying when she was pissed. Especially when it came to protecting all of us. Sleip was the second youngest besides me so Hela was very protective over him. "Hela?" I whisper and Hela stops looking over at me. "He'll be alright. Right?" I ask. Hela sighs. "We may only tell when he wakes. But for now. Let him rest." I nod letting a few tears slip down my face. "When he wakes call me. I will heal more of his wounds after that. I have a pest to deal with" Hela growls dangerously. I nod and watch as she vanishes before turning back to my brother.
A few hours later after Jörm had come and seen Sleip, he started to wake. Jörm left when he saw Sleip. I knew he would be back soon but I didn't know when. Seeing Sleip like that broke Jörm heart. It broke mine to. Seeing all the wounds that covered his body wasn't exactly easy. The abuse that Sleip suffered so he could keep the rest of us safe was nothing new. But it had never been this bad. I hated Odin so much for what he did to sleip and I could only hope that Hela would make him pay. But I knew that she would do more then that. Hela would make Odin suffer for what he did to Sleip. Sleip slowly started to open his eyes and once he did, he looks around confused. Most likely thinking he was on Asgard. This broke my heart knowing that Sleip thought this. "Sleip. It's ok." I whisper gently resting my hand on his shoulder. Sleip looks over at me and gives a smile, relaxing. I hug Sleip gently and bury my tears in his side. "You scared me so much Sleip. I thought-" Sleip shakes his head and nuzzles me gently. Clinging to him I let my tears flow. "You can't go back Sleip. Please! He'll kill you!" I cry. Sleip sighs and meets my eyes. "Please Sleip!" I scream. "I don't want to lose you too." I whimper. "He will never touch him again." Comes Helas voice. Sleip looks over at her. "You mean..." "He has been delt with. He will never touch sleipnir again." Hela says with anger in her tone. I nod and look back at Sleip who looked happy. But I could tell he was still in pain. Even though he tried to hide it. I could still tell. I would always be able to tell. Hela could tell to because she comes over and starts working on some of sleips wounds. Sleip winces as Hela heals one of his rather worse ones and just seeing him wince brought tears to my eye she. Sleip was a gentle soul. He was gentle and soft and everything I knew him to be. He wasn't angry like Fen. Or mischievous like Jörm. Or even cold like Hela. Sleip was gentle and kind. So seeing what Odin had done to him. I was glad that Hela had gotten to him first. Because if I had Odin blood would have watered Asgard's ground when I was done with him. "I have healed what I can for now." Hela says. Sleip nods and lays his head back down exhausted. Hela sighs before I watch as the same protection spell I had over me forms and binds to Sleip. Sleip looks over at Hela and nods. "No one will ever touch you again brother." Hela growls with fury. Sleip can only nod. "Get some rest Sleip. You need it." I say gently stroking his mane. Sleip smiles slightly before letting his eyes slide closed once more. I look over at Hela only to find her looking at the golden bottle Sleip had brought. "Will it help him?" I ask and Hela nods not taking her eyes off the bottle. "Yes. It is made from the golden apples. It will give father some more time and slow the curse." Hela says before looking over at me. "I hear you had a fight with Fenrir." Hela says. I cast my eyes away. "He's giving up on dad. He's lost hope." I whisper with tears. Then I feel Hela grip my shoulder and make me look over at her. "No one is giving up on father. You need to understand how hard this is for Fenrir. For all of us. Not just you." Hela says strictly. "I'm sorry Hela." I whisper feeling ashamed. "It is not me who that apology is meant for." Hela says. I nod and look back over at Sleip. "I will stay with him. Go and find Fenrir. Before he leaves." Hela says. This makes my eyes widen and I quickly race out of the room to find my brother. I couldn't let him leave after the fight we had. I would never forgive myself if he left because of me.
