Brynhildr

THE (ACCIDENTAL) KIDNAPPING

I wake up to a surge of cold water, spluttering, I open my eyes to see Alasha shaking her hands.“ Did you just spray me!” I screamed. She nodded her head innocently.“I thought I didn't have training today,” I moaned. “ No training today, you have mission, go see Royal Pain,” Alasha said. I looked at her questioningly. “ I practice sarcasm, come on,”she said​. I chuckled, stretched my wings, and followed her out of the room.“ So, do you know anything about the mission?” I asked her. “He told me that you are going to go somewhere and do spy work he told me no tell you but I tell you because you asked question can't ignore question and not answer it that would be rude please no tell him I tell you he very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very scary,” she said. I was​ both excited and angry, I made a mental note to ask Loki if he was hurting Alasha. We were rounding the corner when Thor's hammer suddenly flew towards us with Thor not far behind. He skidded to a stop and blushed when he saw me catch his hammer with a flourish. We stared at each other for a few seconds and then when I started to feel awkward I knew I had to say something.“ Can you please tell me why this beautiful piece of weaponry almost killed me and my nursemaid?” I asked him.“ Well I I I actually uh yeah I ahem, uh your... FATHER yep he uh, yeah he told me to come get you and I just lost control of my hammer,” he stuttered. Alasha stared at us for a few seconds and then turned on her heel and walked away. I couldn't help but laugh at Thor's expression as I followed Alasha.

Ah, Sigunn, Hall of Loki and Sigunn, a grand reminder of the (arranged) marriage of Loki and, blah, blah, blah what a mouthful,I thought as we walked through the massive doors. I stopped for a second when I saw my father. “ Ah, Dawnadelia, I see you have gotten here without trouble—
‘Dad it's Dawn okay, just Dawn you—
Dawnadelia, I will call you by your given name and that is it, now, Thor briefed you about the mission, I presume’”
“Yes," I said with a meaningful look in Thor's direction. “ Where am I supposed to be going anyway?” I asked him. The man I knew as my father turned around and said,“ You will be going to Vanahiem.

“Bryn, it is time to wake up,” my mother said. Leave me alone. “ Brynhildr, I will not leave you alone and you know I can read minds, but okay, if you don't want to get ready for your own coronation; then it is fine with me,” I heard her say before she walked away. I sat in my bed thinking about her words. Then I remembered,“ Slepiner!” I screamed. I jumped out of bed just as the breach alarm sounded, someone had broken into the castle. A guard walked in and told me that he was to escort me to the safehouse. “ Do you have a family?” he nodded his head, “ Are they here?” again, he nodded his head. “ What's your name?”
“ My name is Javier,” he answered. “ Well, Javier, you have a friend in the Royal Family, the protection of the Royal Guard, and I know your daughter, Rowana, she is in love with my brother and the feeling is mutual, I know you have respect for him, so as long as I can plan your daughter's wedding I see no reason why you can't get to the safehouse, I will meet you there and we can talk about it later, ok?” I said with a smile. He thanked me and hurried off. And as I turned around my first thought was at least I know what and where the breach is, and then the lights went out.
