Chapter 14

You were currently still in the room, reading your 12th book. Shester was sitting on the side table, nibbling on some food. As you were reading you were quietly humming. There's a knock at the door, making you stop humming and pause your reading.

"Yes?" you ask.

The door unlocks and Loki pokes his head in.

"Can I come in?"

"I've never been able to stop you." You reply.

Loki doesn't reply as he walks in, closing the door behind him. He sits at the end of your bed, looking down at what looked to be an image in his hands. He wasn't as happy as he usually was, which you found strange. Without looking at you, Loki holds the image out for you.

You take the photo and look at it. You blink in confusion as you look at it. It was a photo of Loki with a girl who looked quite similar to you. But she had hair similar to Loki's and dark purple eyes. She also had a neutral look on her face as she looked at the camera.

"This is Minera, my little sister." Loki explains.

"You mean, like my opposite?" you ask.

"Yeah, um, your brothers know us as the 2ps," Loki continues, "we're like the bad guys, and your brothers have taken our sister."

You were shocked that your brothers would do such a thing.

"We have a rivalry, you could call it," Loki shrugs, "and they had managed to get a hold of Minera."

"So as revenge you took me?" you ask.

"Actually that was more of a coincidence." Loki smiles.

You nod and return the photo.

"Thank you," you smile, "for telling me."

"Of course, you shouldn't have been brought into this," Loki confesses, "you weren't apart of any of this."

You smile bitterly and nod, "I can't imagine what you're going through, you must miss your sister."

When you mention this tears begin to well in his eyes. As if on instinct, you wrap your arms around his shoulders. When you feel Loki stiffen you pull away quickly.

"I'm sorry, its just-" your stuttering is cut off when Loki pulls you back into the hug.

You wrap your arms back around him, you could hear him crying. You rub his back comfortingly and begin to hum a song. You weren't sure what song, but you didn't really care. You don't say anything as you wait for him to calm down.

And eventually he does and you both pull away. You feel pressure on your shoulder and look over to see Shester sitting on your shoulder.

"So, this is the fairy that had been floating around you." Loki smiles.

"Yes, this is Shester." You nod.

Shester doesn't say anything but she waves at him.

"Aww, what a cute little thing!" he squeals.

You smile at his positive reaction to the small creature.

"She's been with me since I was little," you explain, "There are also three others."

Loki nods along as you tell him about how you met the four fairies. He seemed quite interested in what you had to say. Once you finish the story the male smiles happily.

"Wow, I'm happy you told me, that's quite an interesting story," Loki tells you, there's a shout from downstairs and Loki perks up, "oh, I'm sorry but I need to go."

You nod and watch as he gets up from his spot beside you. Once he exits the room you practically collapse onto the bed. You were emotionally drained from this encounter and you just wanted to take a nap. As you lay there, more questions wiz through your head.

Why did your brothers take Minera? How did this even happen?

You were so done with this, it was seriously ridiculous. You were so happy when you found your brother, but like most things in your life, it was only short lived.

And of course, as usual, just before you fall asleep the door unlocks and is swung open. You jump at the alarming sound and sit up. You look up to see Markell standing in the doorway, his face neutral.

"They are here."
