Fifty-nine: Boy to Aske

(Y/n) played with Pelutze in the yard as Luxembourg watched from his office as he worked. After his first asking (y/n) if she would like to marry him, he was planning on proposing seriously next time with the ring.
The man however wanted to wait until the perfect moment to propose, plus he still had to find the right ring.
The albino Scandinavian was happy to be with the one she loved. she still had not regained all of her lost memories, but she did not care. She was safe and happy.
Pelutze barked and ran after her when she went back inside to cool off and get out of the sun, she had reached the limit she could be in the sun.
A shiver ran down her spine. She could feel someone watching or thinking about her.
But this was not a good thought or someone nice.
She walked to see Luxembourg and found him putting on a coat, "Ah, (y/n). Ready to go to into town? I have finished my work for the day."

The albino Scandinavian nodded and got the parasol she was gifted.
Luxembourg got the leash for his dog and both went for a walk.
The city was as beautiful as ever, (y/n) held onto Luxembourg's arm as they walked. Her parasol covered both of them.
"So, we have all day today to relax. What shall we do?," Luxembourg asked the female, "There is grabbing lunch at a nice restaurant. Having some tea somewhere, going to see a nice movie."
The albino woman was indecisive as they all sounded like good and fun activities.
She held onto Luxembourg's arm, "I don't know. Those all sound fun but... we need to do something that we can bring pelutze with us."
"Of course!," the brunet male said, "We can go have lunch at this place I know that allows dogs."
(Y/n) smiled happily and held his arm, it was another perfect day with her beloved Luxembourg.

Loki was cleaning up a room when he heard the tiny feet of the small child that summoned him. The man looked over to see the small child, the kid had to be no more than nine years. So covered in bruises and cigarette burns.
He kneeled down, "can I help you?"
"I-I was wondering i-if you would t-tell me more about your sister?," the child asked, "Gr-granpa always said th-that y-your mom was n-nice and th-that y-your sister would be too."
"She is nice. She is kind and warm and as pure as new fallen snow.," The burned male replied, "She would love to see you if she was here. She would hold and heal you until all of these were gone."
Loki held the child's hands gently in his large burned ones, the kid looked at his hands.
"Did you not get healed by her too?," the child asked.
"I did, but these are permanent.," Loki said and looked at the scars that had faint scale-like marks on them, "I had them long before my sister was born."

The child looked at his scars. The kid looked quite impressed at the strength of the ancient being in front of him. The dirty child let Loki's hand go.
"Sorry for bothering you..," the child said with a shiver. The torn and filthy shirt the kid had on Seemed to be his only clothing, it reminded Loki of the times he did not have food to eat or good clothes to wear.
"Kid, how about I take you to get cleaned up?," the Norwegian asked and the kid looked up at him, "And I never got your name."
"I... don't know my name...," the kid replied, "I was called little shit or bastard by my dad and mom."
The little boy sniffled as loki took him into his arms, "How about I give you one? Let me think.. Eik? No sounds like my far's name. Ah! Aske!"
"Wh-what does that mean?," the boy asked.
"It means Ash or embers. Your hair looks like embers.," the Norwegian replied, "And your eyes have a nice little fire in them."

The little boy wrapped his arms around Loki's neck, this was probably one of the few times he ever received care. The burned male picked up the boy and took him to the bathroom to clean him up.
After a bath, Loki saw more scars and bruises on the kid. Even a monster like him would draw the line at this. Children were too good to be treated this poorly.
The Norwegian man dried the kid off carefully and put him in some new clean clothes.
Aske clung to Loki's hand as the Norwegian walked through the halls of the large manor.
The other kids saw him and came up to greet the friendly Norwegian. The burned man happily greeted the children while keeping Aske's hand in his.
"I think that three of you need to go home.," the Norwegian said, "The rest will be here as it may be too dangerous for you to go home."
The children booed but the Norwegian shushed them, "Remember what I told you before. You can still summon me with that ritual, now I have to send you all home."
The burned Norwegian was able to get the kids home but kept the ones who had the worst homelives, he was not letting children grow up in terrible conditions. Not on his watch. Sure, he was not a good older brother to Egil, but he would never deny food or anything from his younger brother. He was mean and did cut out Egil's eye but he stopped being an asshole like that long ago.

Aske kept holding Loki's hand as the Norwegian delivered the other kids home.
The little boy stuck with Loki as he traveled around. "Where did the big scary man go?," Aske inquired.
"Magnus? He is out searching for our sister, she is somewhere.," the burned Norwegian said with a smile, "But how about I take you somewhere nice? Like to get some sweets?"
The little boy's little amber colored eyes lit up, "Yeah!"
"Let's go then.," Loki said and took the kid through a portal.
They were in a Beautiful place, it was much different than the slums that Aske came from.
The fiery haired Norwegian took the child to a cafe to get him some treats and treats for the other kids, as he was talking to the woman at the register he was unaware of Aske wandering about.
He got his order and looked for the kid, "Aske? Oh shit."

(Y/n) spun her parasol as she sat on a park bench after having a nice lunch with her darling.
Luxembourg was playing with Pelutze and the two were quite happy looking.
She was completely blissful in her current state.
Her red-violet eyes drifted over to a child that seemed to be wandering out of a sweets shop, she watched the child wander about before he got into the park.
The albino female saw that Luxembourg and Pelutze were still playing so she got up and went to the child.
What she found was heartbreaking, a child that was so malnourished and so severely bruised.
"Sweetheart? Are you okay?," she asked the kid and the little boy looked up at her with great amber eyes. His ash colored hair had flecks of red in it.

The boy looked like he was scared of her and intrigued at the same time.
"Did someone hurt you?," she asked the child and the little boy nodded, "What is your name sweetheart?"
"I was always called 'boy', 'bastard' or 'little shit' by mommy and daddy.," the child responded, "But the person who is taking care of me now calls me Aske."
"Aske? Is that what you want to be called by?," the female asked and got a nod in return, "Well then Aske, are you lost?"
The boy looked around and saw he was not near who he was with, he looked up to the pretty glowing woman and nodded.
She held out her pale hand and he took it, her warm hand feeling kind to his tiny one.
(Y/n) picked him up and held him carefully.
The tiny child hugged her closely, "It's okay Aske. I won't hurt you."

She went back to the bench and sat down while the young boy laid his head on her chest, she let the child lay on her as she began to heal his wounds and bruises.
Luxembourg walked up to see the bruises on this random child just fade away, he smiled at his girlfriend. "You really are already acting like a mother, Mäi léift.," the man said as the young boy looked up at him, "Where did you find this little one?"
"He was just wandering around. He looked badly hurt so I want to heal him," (y/n) replied, "And he is almost completely healed now."
The young boy looked at his body, he was free of scars and bruises.
He remembered what Loki told him before, 'She would hold and heal you until all of these were gone.'
Aske looked up into those kind eyes and remembered the picture that Loki showed him, this was the powerful woman they were looking for!
She placed him down and patted the boy's head, "Now where is your guardian?"
"He should be here soon, miss. It is okay.," the boy said.

Aske heard his name being called and looked over, Loki was calling for him.
He looked back up to the female and saw she was being walked away by the brunet haired man she was with, the dog they had followed them.
The boy wanted to run after them but was picked up by Loki, "There you are, Aske. Time to go home."
The Norwegian teleported home with the boy.

(Y/n) and Luxembourg walked back through the streets to his home, they both were happy. "That little boy was quite cute.," the female said, "I want to have a child when I get married."
"I would love to have a child with you if we get married.," Luxembourg spoke.
The female smiled, "As would I. But children will be a lot of work of us and you have a very busy schedule."
"I think I would manage if it was for our children.," the brunet man said and kissed his love's head.
The two walked back to the mansion and Luxembourg went to his study as the young woman walked out back and into the yard to let Pelutze play.

"(Y/n)."

Magnus saw that Child that Loki had with him walk to their sister, he watched as she healed the boy.
She was a natural with children.
How natural it was for her, she looked like she was a mother. Her kind face and beautiful soul.
The Dane followed her and Luxembourg in the shadows.
He was careless last time, this time he would do it right. He called beforehand to Egil to ask for a getaway portal to open.
The Icelandic male was willing to and readied the portal.

He followed her and the brunet man home and waited for them to separate.
His patience paid off as the albino woman led the dog back outside to play and Luxembourg to go in the house away from her.
The Dane carefully made his way to (y/n) and eliminated all means of escape.
He was right behind her.

"(Y/n)."

(Y/n) was going to scream but he covered her mouth with his hand.
"Hush. It is time to come home.," the male said and picked her up.
The female struggled and even tried to hit him with magic, it did not work as he walked calmly back to the portal and went inside.
"Lillesøster. Do not be afraid of me, we are your brothers. We only want what is best for you.," the man said.
She was so scared that she stopped struggling put of fear he would harm her or someone she loved.
Magnus felt her cease struggling and got her off of his shoulder to carry her with his arm under her bottom.

He carried her to the manor like that.
She heard the cheering of kids coming from the garden, she looked over to see Loki with a bunch of kids ranging from very young to early teens. All the kids looked happy but extremely bad in terms of health and physical appearance.
The Dane saw what she was looking at and kept walking her to the house, "You will meet them later. Now you need to see your fiancé."
"I don't want to.," the female said in an oddly calm voice.
"He will come to see you regardless.," Magnus spoke and brought her inside to her room, "Change into something new."
He waited outside until she did, the blond took her to the receiving room and set her on the large and comfortable chair.
She looked down to not look at his face, he patted her soft hair spikes.
"You belong here, Lillesøster.," the man said, "Stay here. I will call the children that Loki gathered for you to help."
(Y/n) begrudgingly obeyed as the man went to get the children.

She did not need to wait long before she saw the kids, they all looked even worse up close. All had broken and hurt bodies, Ill in body. These children had to have called for Loki out of desperation to get out of a bad situation.
The little boy she saw earlier, Aske, was with them. He recognized her immediately and ran up to hug her.
This was her weakness, she could not deny children care or love. She let the skeletal boy hug her tightly as the other kids was surprised he was not struck down by a mighty power for touching the glowing woman who was so beautiful that she could not be human.
(Y/n) let the child hug her and she brought him up to sit in her lap.
The other children got closer and found she was kind.
Each got an embrace from the peaceful smiling woman, the embrace the provided relief from the pains they had in their bodies caused by their families who did not care for them.
Each had their broken bones, illnesses, bruises and wounds all healed.
The power they heard about from Loki and their grandparents was real.

Loki and Magnus watched with a smile as the female healed the children, she was careful not to hurt them herself.
"Natural mother.," Loki chuckled.
"She sure is.," Magnus agreed, "That is probably one of the reasons Egil adores her so much, besides her being our younger sister."
The fiery haired Norwegian kept watching the woman and children, "Magnus, these kids... they are from extremely abusive homes. The youngest one would have died if I had not gotten him. I had to fight off his father who was threatening both of us with a gun."
"Child protective services did not come to investigate?," the blue eyed dance asked.
"From what I could tell, they did but the mother and father made it look like it was a mistake for long enough that they dropped the case.," Loki replied, "I saw the toys in the closet and the papers. I'm thinking of keeping this one or finding a new home for him."
"You're being oddly kind for a pyromaniac and an assassin.," Magnus said.
"Even I have moral lines I will not cross.," the Norwegian replied, "Kids are one of those lines. I will not hurt kids."
