Loki's Daughter

Chapter Fifteen

Hela woke up the next morning in Loki's bed. She sat up and saw that Loki was sleeping in his chair facing her.

"Dad?" Hela asked.

Loki shot out of his seat and ran over to Hela.

"Are you alright? Did something happen? Bad dream? Are you hurt?" Loki asked frantically.

"I'm fine. I just woke up." Hela replied.

"Oh, thank the gods. You should get going back to your room. I don't think it's wise to stay here any longer and be found out." Loki told her.

Hela nodded and Loki helped her out of bed.

"I anything happens, you come right here." Loki said.

"I will, dad." Hela smiled.

She left his cell and Loki watched as she left. As Hela walked over to her room, she saw Thor pass her by and she noticed how serious he looked.

"Uncle, is something wrong?" Hela asked.

"No," Thor replied quickly. "I just have to talk with your father."

Hela watched as he walked off and sighed. She made a projection of herself in her bedroom and quietly followed Thor to the prisons. She put on her cloaking spell so no one could see her, not even Loki. She listened in on everything they talked about. Thor had devised a plan that would help Jane and destroy the aether once and for all. Hela wanted to help but knew that Loki would never allow it since they would have to go to the Dark Elves' realm and they wanted her. Hela did know about what they would take to aid in their journey and she decided to stay there until they came. Hela removed the projection from her room and ran towards the Dark Elf ship that kamikazed into the throne room. She still used her cloaking spell and would wait until they were out of the palace to reveal herself.

"Should I tell Hela that I will be leaving or not?" Loki asked.

"No. She will understand why you left, most likely. She's a clever girl. She'll figure it out." Thor replied.

Hela climbed onto the ship and sat down in the corner waiting for them to arrive. About twenty minutes had gone by and no one showed up. A few minutes later, she heard fighting outside and also heard Loki, Thor and Jane step onto the ship. Hela remained quiet, even though no one could see her. She watched as Thor began smashing his hands onto the control panel.

"Don't just hit it. Press it gently." Loki said.

"I am pressing it gently. It's not working!" Thor exclaimed as he banged his hand on the control panel.

With that hit, the ship started up and Thor smiled at Loki. Thor began to turn the ship around and knocked over many columns in the process.

"I think you missed a column." Loki told Thor.

"Shut up!" Thor exclaimed.
