Tabula Rasa (Unlike Loki: Book Two)

Chapter 70

"About time." 

Female. Definately female. 

"Excuse our tardiness." I spat. She tilted her head at me. I couldn't see her face behind her hood, only a dark shadow. 

She threw up three stones and one landed in front of each of us. "Step on those." She dropped one in front of her and stomped on it. 

And she was gone, as if the breeze had blown her away. 

By kicked his stone lightly with his foot. "Ready?" He asked. 

"Nope." I said. 

"Sounds about right." Loki said. 

"Looks like we are all set then." By said and stompped on his stone, wisping away. 

I took Loki's hand and squeezed, looking into his eyes. He squeezed back. "Let's go get our son back, shall we?" 

I nodded my head, and we stompped on our stones, disappearing.

I fell to the ground, unable to breathe, as if there was no air at all to take in. I tried, but could not get any. My vision blurred in and out, but I could see well enough to find that By and Loki were having the same problem. By was sprawled on his back, and Loki was glaring ahead of him, while he clawed at his chest for air, his face beat red. 

I lazily followed his gaze, but my vision was fading. Everything was foggy, out of focus. Before me, I groggily saw someone who was slender and had blue skin, someone else who was massive and was a redish-purpleish color, and various others. 

But then the darkness claimed me. 

And there was no more. 

No more cold. No more pain. No more worry. 

Nothing. 

And it was beautiful.
