The Norsemen (Editing)

Chapter 27: The Prophecy

Renee:

I heard Kaylee screaming outside. I put my bath supplies down and ran out to see what was the matter.

When I got to the gazebo, Thor was holding her.

"What's going on out here?"

I looked around to see if anyone else was there.

"Was Loki here?"

I was peeved. I was sure that he came and said something snarky to her that hit her last nerve.

Kaylee was crying heavily, her arms holding her chest tight.

"When I see him again I'll kill him," I heaved, "son of a bitch!"

Thor looked up at me worried.

He whispered, "I don't think it was Loki."

I gaped at him confused, but it began to dawn on me slowly... The only person who gets Kaylee this upset is...

"Bloody hell!"

I sat beside her in a flurry.

"Kay?"

Forseti ran up behind us.

She looked over at me, gasping desperately to catch her breath.

"I-I" she sobbed, "can't breathe..."

Forseti turned away. "I'll go get Sjofn."

"N-no!" she reached out to him, grabbing Thor's bicep for support. "I-It's just a panic attack." She said out of breath. "Ullr was here..." she panted, "I couldn't him."

She was shaking uncontrollably.

Thor looked at her, his eyes filled with pain. "What can I do?" He held her hand tightly in his.

"Take me to Heimdall."

Thor looked up at us, eyebrows furrowed.

I nodded to him.

We slowly helped her up.

"Hey Kay, before we go," I exhaled, "there's something you should probably know?"

She tilted her head quizzically.

"Loki was the one who killed Baldur."

"I know," she frowned, "my father tricked him into doing it."

"Kaylee." I held her up so that I was holding her close. "You knew?"

"I always suspected," she sighed, "Ullr confirmed just now. He said it was because Baldur just 'wasn't the same'."

"What a load of bull." I was steaming.

"He has been claiming that for years." Forseti shook his head.

She squeezed me, "He didn't even say what his 'suspicions' were."

I kissed her cheek.

"Typical." Forseti heaved.

I looked around at them, "So we go to Heimdall to find out what he saw?"

Kaylee gaped at me, her eyes smiling.

"Don't say it!"

She nodded and held Thor's hand.

Thor tried to warn her, "Heimdall may not have all of the answers."

"I still want to see him," she paused, "and Odin as well. I can't stand aside waiting anymore."

Thor and Forseti looked worried.
