My Sweet Flame

Chapter 17. We're going to Jotunheim!

"Loki is this really a good idea?" I peered out around the side of the pillar as Thor yelled and overturned a table.

"I haven't decided yet, actually, but if anyone can put his mind at ease, it's the two of us."

"Good point. So what exactly are we going to tell him, Silver Tongue?"

He grinned at the nickname, "Well, I was hoping we could say that there was nothing he could do without defying Father, which is true, and because he works so valiantly to earn Father's approval, that should put an end to this."

"And if it doesn't?" I looked out again, "He's coming over, you go around that side. I'll take this one." I smiled at him reassuringly. We turned and each went around the pillar and Loki sat beside him.

"It is unwise to be in my company right now, Brother."

"Who said I was wise?" Loki told him.

I sat down, "The same for you Y/N."

"This was to be my day of triumph."

"It'll come," Loki said.

"In time," I told him.

Just then, Sif walked in, with the Warriors Three close behind her, "Redecorating are we?"

I glared at her, Not now.

"What's this?" Volstagg gasped.

Loki looked back at Thor.

"If it's any consolation, I think you're right. About the Frost Giants, about Laufey, about everything."

"If they've found a way to penetrate Asgard's defenses once, Who's to say they won't try again?" I said.

"Next time, with an army." Loki glanced up at me.

"Exactly." Thor said.

"There's nothing you can do without defying Father."

Thor stopped and looked at Loki. He stood up.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I know that look!"

"It's the only way to ensure the safety of our borders."

"Thor it's madness!" Loki and I said. I looked at him,

"That was weird." I mouthed.

"Madness?" Volstagg asked, "What sort of madness?"

"We're going to Jotunheim." Thor stated bluntly.

Volstagg laughed, "What?"

"This isn't like a journey to Earth, where you summon a little lightning and thunder and the mortals worship you as a god." Fandral warned him, "This is Jotunheim."

"My Father fought his way into Jotunheim," Loki shook his hand as he put his hand over his face, "Defeated their armies, and took their casket. We will just be looking for answers."

"It is forbidden!" Sif told him.

To Loki and My dismay, Thor merely smiled enthusiastically and walked towards them.

"My friends, Have you forgotten all that we have done together? Fandral, Hogan, Who led you into the most glorious of battles?"

"You did." Hogun smiled.

I looked over at Loki, "Gee your plan is working marvelously," I whispered. "Shut up." He grinned.

"And Volstagg, the delicacies so succulent you thought you'd died and gone to Valhalla?"
