Okay.

First, James (I mean Thor), you fucker. Seducing other goddesses like such a man hoe... But Astrid's not giving in, so I don't blame him.

And I don't like what's going on here. She's too trusting, like Bo said. She's blinded by the beauty and possibility of helping two people in love, and it's clouding her better judgement... spirit my ass. :rolleyes:

And I'd like to see what other "powers" this pendant has, hehehe.

MORE!!! :heart: :heart: :heart:

you definitely succeeded to hook me up on this. hmmm, I don't know who that spirit might be, I have some ideas though, I won't say anything :biggrin
I think Astrid will get worse of this, she is much too naive, I mean, being too good always leads to any kinds of maltreatment(?)
well, then again, Olya gets to decide her faith :D
I loved this chapter and can't wait to read more! :heart:

Wow, I did not notice that you updated. Shame on me.

Spirit? I do not trust this spirit.

Astrid should be careful! I hope she will be wise!

Great update, more!

More? Okay.












IV.





(Loki's POV)



“It's done.” Sigyn's voice whispered by my ear, stopping my impatient pacing.

“You told her what to do?” I turned to the sound and the empty air split as the Goddess of Nymphs giggled, pulling the invisibility cloak off and throwing it on the nearby chair.

“I was the perfect bodiless spirit with a voice from beyond.”

Okay... one deed is done. I quickly wrapped shimmering cloak in a ball and hid it back in its sacred box, before turning to my accomplice.

“She didn't suspect anything?”

“Are you doubting my abilities?” Sigyn raised her eyebrow and lowered herself onto the couch.

“No, I just want everything done right.” I sat by her side and she turned to me with a wicked smile.

“It was so easy, I didn't have to do much. I just stirred up some visions from her own memory. She's so hung up on true love and those humans that it wasn't a problem at all.” My girlfriend's hands wrapped around my neck, laying me down. Her lips traveled over my neck and to my chest, and I made myself comfortable, stretching out on the couch with a smile. I pulled Sigyn's body on top of mine and her lips returned to my face, leaving barely there touches as she murmured.

“Now will you tell me why we're helping her? I mean, it's all true, those pendants have the power to grant wishes, and only a Valkyrie has the power to do that. That knowledge is hidden from them, so they won’t go granting wishes to humans left and right, but it's not forbidden. So what's the catch?” She pulled back, awaiting my answer and I smiled.

“The catch is... to grant a wish that requires undoing Gods' will. It's not a simple, everyday wish, the pendant doesn't have that much power, but it must obey the Valkyrie’s order no matter what.”

Sigyn's fingers outlined my jaw, her eyes stopped on mine.

“Wait... the pendants are connected to Valkyries in an almost symbiotic way, it's a part of them, so if the power of the pendent becomes depleted...” Her eyes widened and I continued her thought, unable to hold back my satisfied smile.

“...It will draw power from the Demigoddess, it will use her immortality to complete the task.”

“Oh, that is so mean!” Sigyn pushed up and I laughed, pulling her back to me.

“Mean? You wanted to kill her! I'm not that cruel, I'm just making her mortal.”

“That's worst than death! I wouldn't want that fate... to live your life as a miserable mortal, knowing you were one of the Gods... well, Demigods, but still...” Sigyn lowered her eyes.

“Are you feeling sorry for her? You don't think she deserves to be thrown to Midgard for spoiling my victory? Fine, if you've changed your mind and don't want to help me anymore...” I pulled away in an attempt to get up, but Sigyn's hands held me down, pushing on my chest.

“I'll do anything to help you, baby. You helped me and I'll do anything for you, you know that.”

I looked at her blues, reading devotion, and slowly returned to my previous position, letting her nestle her head on my chest.

“Good, because it's more fun to share my wickedness with someone..” I trust. The last words never made it out, sticking in my throat and stirring up my thoughts. I freed her from an unwanted marriage, arranging for her fiance to be killed. She's with me because she owes me her freedom... I know that. But do I really, truly trust her? Would she stay by my side no matter what? Is she with me because we have that secret between us, because she knows it's better to be on my side as a friend, than to become my enemy, or...? She said it, she chose me, because I'm smart... she didn't say fall in love with me, she said chose... I pulled her face up, trying to read the answer in her ever-changing eyes, but Sigyn smiled at me and lowered her head back to my chest.

“...Who can see your greatness and understands you.”

Do you understand me? Understand that I'm tired of being a shadow of my mighty brother, that I want to be a hero, want to be... what everyone sees in him, what my father sees in him... My fingers ran through my girlfriend's white waves.

“Anyway... I'm not as cruel as you think. The Valkyrie will not remember Asgard. As the pendant dies, her knowledge and her memory will slowly die with it.”

“I don't remember that ever being a part of the legend...” Sigyn raised her head and I smiled, twirling one of her dark curls around my fingers.

“Sigyn, what do you know about the Valkyrie's pendants?”

“You don't want me to repeat a well known, boring story, do you?” She lowered her chin on my chest and smiled.

“Humor me.” I smiled back and she rolled her eyes, turning to her back on top of me and waving her hands in the air as she spoke in a deliberately boring monotone.

“It was said in the beginning of time, when the world was created, that the tree of life will bear a fruit, only one fruit in its life time. And only the one who will be willing to give will receive something from it. The tree bore the fruit right after Odin gave his eye for the knowledge of the runes. Part of that knowledge was about the seeds that the fruit was carrying inside of it. Odin gathered the seeds and sent them to be made into pendants. He said those pendants will chose among newly born Demigoddess, the most worthy, most beautiful to become Odin's battle maidens, the choosers of the slain, to help Odin build an army for the end of the world. Each seed pendant came alive over two thousand years with a birth of such Demigoddess. All thirty-nine of them did what was foretold. The end.”

“All true, except for one little detail... there were forty seeds...”

“Forty?” Sigyn quickly turned back to me, almost jumping with surprise. “But there are only thirty-nine Valkyries...”

“And there will be no more. The last nine seeds chose their Demigoddesses when me and Thor were kids. And that is when our father told us this story... the full version of it.” I bit my lip, watching my girl's eyes glow with the foretaste of a secret.

“You will tell me that version, right?” She bit her lip and moved her body on mine, her lips slid into a seductive smile as her hands pulled aside the closure of my shirt.

“I mean, since I'm helping you... you do trust me enough, right?” Her lips traveled over my exposed skin, teasing it with light kisses. I breathed in, feeling my body answering with wave of heat. Oh, you little wicked... mmnn... Her body slithered lower, lips touching my stomach and she lifted her face to me with craving blues, her lips mouthing. “Please.”

“Well... you do need to know the plan...” I sighed and she propped her head up on her hands, smiling like a child ready for a story. I smiled and continued.

“Father didn't reveal his knowledge to anyone in the beginning, and although no one knew exactly what those seeds were for, they knew that they must be valuable. One of the Fire Giants stole a seed when it was ready to be made into the last pendant, thinking he could use its power to overthrow his King and gain the crown. But no matter what magic he used, no matter what spells he tried, the seed lay dead in his hands. He got angry and tried to destroy it with all his power, burning it with fire, but the seed remained unharmed, just glowing bright golden from the heat. The Fire Giant then hit it with his axe, but his weapon bounced off the seed, killing him. As for the seed... like a bright glowing comet it flew across the nine words, falling somewhere in the frozen mountains of Midgard. As it fell, it split the mountain peak, burning its way deep under the ground, were it still remains, hidden under the frozen lake, that formed in the crater. Only Odin and his servant, who was send to guard it, know it's location.”

“Why didn’t Odin return it to Asgard?” Sigyn's eyes gazed into mine.

“Father said that the lost seed has its own destiny and it will follow it.”

“Did he ever tell you what that destiny might be?”

“No... he just said that the seed will reveal itself only to one who is destined to use its power.”

“And.. what's in it for us?”

“My brother knows that story, if he is, as you say, in love with the Valkyrie, he will try to find it for her.. all I have to do is to... manipulate him into believing that Astrid is that chosen one.”

“But what if she is? I mean you don't know for sure.”

“She wouldn't be able to use it to bring her powers back, I know that for sure. Many days later after father told us this story, I came back to him with questions, about safety of the seed in Midgard, worried that some human could find it and ask for powers of Gods. My father said, that the seeds can only be used by immortals and can't be used for self-gain. And until this moment me and Odin were the only ones, who know all that.” I wiggled my eyebrows and Sigyn smiled.

“Loki, you never fail to amaze me with the power of your mind. You thought of everything, you always do. And I'm glad that I'm with you.”

Her hands slid on my chest as she drew closer, her blue eyes peered into mine, and her lips touched mine, making me shiver in urge.

Whatever the reason for your being with me... I'm glad you are with me too...

Her kiss pushed the last thoughts somewhere behind a fog, submerging my mind into desire.

I knew it! Spirit, my ass!

Loki is so mean, he will use all his knowledge to ruin T&A.

I like the legends from the past, and again this fic is as I watch a good movie.

I cannot wait for more!

Kay, first of all, no sex? Really? You suck.

Second, this was awesome. Sigyn is a manipulative BEEEYOTCH.

"...most beautiful to become Odin's battle maidens..." Okay, Olya, we have to talk about something here. IS THERE NO SUCH THING AS AN UGLY/AVERAGE-LOOKING WARRIOR CHICK WHO GETS RECOGNITION? ;_; Fucking Odin. :rolleyes:

Anyway, so yeah, I loved this. The legends were awesome. :D

Great writing, love you. More, young lady. :biggrin <3

So the villain is human and insecure after all.
He wants to be loved. He doesn't know he actually is. I guess he has more in common with Astrid than he thought.... love under his nose

I absolutely loved the legend. LOVED IT! I always admire the lengths and details your mind takes you to. Beautiful, mysterious, exciting, tempting...
I wonder what the destiny of the missing seed will be. Whose fate is it to discover it. For what use was it intended. What journey will be needed to find it. What discoveries will be made on that journey...

So many wonderful things ahead! I can't wait to see more.
