"Mother! Your u-" I started but was cut off by her frantic shouts.
"What happened? Where is she? Where am I? How long have I been out?" She rambled off, her speech frantic but clear.
"Calm down. Your fine and in the Healers Care. You have been out for an hour. Someone knocked you out with a dart and..." I paused and took a deep breath. "They took Aoide."
"What?!!" She yelled with wide eyes. "What do you mean took her?!!"
I told her all I knew. Face fell more and more and tears were welling in her eyes as I rambled on.
"Loki..." She trailed off. Tears also welled in my eyes. She pulled me close and I lost it. Tears streamed down my face and on to her shoulder. I felt like I was five again, young and volnrable. I noticed that I wasn't the only one crying. I pulled away enough to look at Mother.
"Mother, what's wrong?" I asked her as tears ran down her face. She opened her mouth as if to choked out an answer but stopped, staring at someone behind me. It was Odin and Thor.
"Odin! Tell me...please...tell me it..." Mother choked, her eyes pleading for an answer she knew she wouldn't receive. Odin shook his head. Mother choked up and buried her head on my chest. I hugged her tightly as she sobbed.
"Brother, why is she crying?" Thor asked me. I shrugged. Then he looked to Odin.
"She's probably just upset. She was just knocked out and had someone she was talking to taken from beside her, while she lay helpless to do anything. That would upset anyone, my son's." Odin spoke calmly. I looked into his eyes. They said otherwise. Odin's eyes showed signs of confliction and sorrow. I ignored that and focused on mother again. She pulled away.
"Odin, may I speak with you alone." She asked calmly, a steely tone in her voice.
"Of course Frigga." He gestured for us to leave. I placed a kiss on Mother's forehead and left the room behind Thor. I concentrated and doubled my form. I sent the fake me to follow Thor, who believed it was still me. I stood near the door and listened the best I could to Odin and Mother's conversation.
"It was her...had too be...her power...sister...can't risk it..." Odin whispered.
