(One hour has passed since Frigga was knocked out...)

I waited at my mother's bedside for her to wake up and recounted the previous events in the past hour...

We found her passed out beside the fountain. Aoide was nowhere in sight.

"Aoide!" I called. No response. Thor knelt a Mother's side.

"Loki, help me with Mother!" Thor said. I nodded and rushed to help. I checked her pulse.

"She's just passed out. I need you to carry her to the Healers." I told him. He nodded and picked her up. Then he rushed back into the castle. I noticed Odin paused and look at at me before quickly following Thor. I strayed behind, looking for signs of Aoide.

I walked to where Mother was and noticed not one but two fall marks, as if two people fell. Aoide. I examined the second one and saw a little glass and metal object in the grass nearby. I picked it up and looked at it closely. It was a dart. They we're probably just talking when someone darted Mother. Aoide removed the dart. I looked at the grass. A small patch was trambled. She must have scanned the area of the intruder. Then, she was hit. I looked around. They took her. I stood and ran back inside, brushing away tears...

I looked down at Mother's sleeping form. She'll be awake soon. Then she could clearly tell is what happened. I bit my tongue. If Aoide was hurt...

There was no sign of blood at the fountain, but she could have just as easily could have been strangled. She was most likely kidnapped. But what they did once the kidnappers reached their hidout could be anything. They could kill her...

A guard entered the room. I stood up.

"Any sign?" I asked.

"No sign of any intruders." The guards reported. Tears formed in my eyes but I masked my face with a calm look.

"As expected. Your dismissed." I waved the guard away. They bowed and left. I sat back down. She was gone...

"Loki?" A gruff voice said from the doorway. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine Thor." I said, not looking him in the eyes. That was a lie. I wasn't okay. The only person that understood me was gone.

"Let me know when she wakes." He said as he left. I nodded.

"Loki!" Frigga shot up form her sleep.
