Chapter 5 - Payback (1/2)

Loki waited for news of Theoric's death before taking his form and heading towards his home where Sigyn waited.

He remembered when he first saw her how his ice hold heart seemed to warm and beat faster. She was so lovely, her shoulder-length dark blue hair and crimson red eyes which gave an exotic feeling and let us not forget about her greatest assets of all, her c.h.e.s.t, they were amazingly sized where any man looking just wanted to bury their face into it.

But to his dismay, he found out she was already taken by Theoric a Crimson Hawk, also known as Theoric the butcher.

Loki was well aware of his reputation and prowess, while he was weaker, it was well known of how brutal he was to those who challenged him.

That was learned in the arena when Drulham the resident bully who picked on all those weaker made Theoric his next target. Theoric was no match for him, but what he lacked for in ability he made up for in viciousness.

During the fight Drulham was winning at first till he put him in a chokehold, Theoric threw all decorum and honor out the window when he took a bite out of his arm, Drulham released him in a howl of pain not prepared for the follow-up kick to the groin dropping Drulham to his knees.

Theoric then tackled him progressing to beating him relentlessly until he was pulled off.

No one ever challenged him again after that, afraid they might be unlucky enough to have a repeat.

Loki frowned thinking about this and how best to get what he wanted, he came up with the idea of sending him on a mission to die where he arranged the Rock Trolls to kill him.

With word making its way back that the job was done he stood in front of the home where Sigyn resided reaching out to knock.

”Who is it?”

Loki coughed making sure his voice was coming out correctly before speaking- ”It's me Sigyn, I'm back.”

Sigyn opened the door slowly as she squinted her eyes at him, making him sweat as he wondered if his disguised was seen through.

”What's with calling me so formally like that?”

Loki still sweating thought he recalled her being a bit ditsy, why was she so preceptive now, ”Haha, it's nothing... Honey, it just slipped out.” he said trying to laugh it off.

Sigyn smiled as she brushed off the uneasy feeling she had- ”Oh ok, it's good to see you again dear, I'm glad your back.” she moved in to hug him.

Loki sighed in relief as he leaned in attending to do more than just hug, but froze halfway to her awaiting arms when a loud angry yell resounded throughout the area.

”LOKI!!!”

Sigyn who heard it stopped as well wondering what was going on.

A dust storm seemed to be heading towards them from the distance.

Sigyn- ”What is that?”

Loki looking at the approaching dust storm received a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach, but he was assured that Ulik himself took care of him, other than Odin, only Thor could match that monster's strength.

”Impossible,” he whispered to himself, not believing that it could be Theoric, even if he somehow managed to survive there was no way for him to figure out it was Loki who set him up.

Sigyn tilted her head cutely as she looked at Loki who was in disguise asking- ”What's impossible?”

Loki hearing her question looked back to her with a smile- ”It's nothing dear, shall we continue what we were going to do?” he asked brushing off his uneasy feeling, believing that as the son of Odin even if he was caught he would be safe from any repercussion.

Loki edged closer to her and was leaning in for the kiss when suddenly the back of his head was gripped hard by the hair and pulled back.

Sigyn put her hand to her mouth in shock when she saw two Theoric's in front of her, doing a double-take between the two asking- ”Theoric?”

Theoric panting half from anger half from exhaustion as he ran all the way back to stop anything from happening, clenched his left fist as he raised it.

Loki seeing the jig was up dropped his illusion as he put his hands up in surrender- ”Now Theoric take a minute to think about this, I am Odi...”
