Part 2

“Feel my heart start bursting with envy
'cuz I'm still in the dark

Someday maybe I will learn
The comfort of strangers
And I won't feel the winter's bite
Looking out at the lonely night…”
                                        (Envy)

“We have to locate them and save her” Thor stated, his look telling that he was deadly serious about the situation. Lady Sif, Volstagg and Fandral exchanged a look while Heimdall kept his eyes on the nine realms, trying to find something that would give away Loki’s whereabouts. They were all standing on the rainbow bridge, their muscular friend’s features showing immense worry about what his brother might be doing to his love.

“My friend, with all due respect, but what does Odin say about this? We shouldn’t start a war again with invading a land like we did with the Frost Giants” Fandral said watching his friend and fellow warrior pacing with his hammer in his hand.

“That was different. You know how hotheaded I used to be. Now I am a different person, Fandral. I know what I have to do. I know what is right and we are wasting time. She is an innocent descendant of Midgard and I swore to protect all the nine realms and their people. Her only sin is her love for me” he looked aside with a soft expression on his stubbly face as he thought about the warmth of that love. “Odin knows he cannot stop me in this and I promised him we won’t start an unnecessary war, if we can avoid it. That’s why we should sneak in once we find them with the help of our friend Heimdall” he glimpsed towards the huge man standing with his sword in his hands, his all-seeing golden eyes still scanning the universe.

“That will take some time even with my all-seeing eyes. The nine realms are vast to search” Heimdall murmured still searching the stars.

“I am aware of that, my friend. Please, keep looking” Thor nodded then turned to Lady Sif who touched his muscular arm.

“What about Hogun?”

“I would better have him keep an eye on his homeland. His help is needed there, Lady Sif. It’d be only the four of us. Like in the old days when we went into hopeless battles to win them with ease” he smiled down at her. Thor saw the way she looked at him and her familiar face gave her feelings about this and Jane away. He put a big hand on her shoulder, seeing from the corner of his eye that the other two warriors looked aside and retreated somewhat to give them some privacy. “Sif, I know how you feel, but I am begging you to put those emotions aside and help me out. You are the only people I can trust with my life. She doesn’t deserve the fate Loki wants to force on her. She’d do the same for me.”

“No Thor, she’d only bring problems with her because of her weakness. Like when she came here with the Aether in her and got our queen, your mother killed. She brought destruction on Asgard and she’ll break your heart sooner or later. Either with something she does or by getting killed in the crossfire” she spoke her mind plainly for the first time “What disappoints me is that you know there’s someone else who could spare you all the worry and despair, but your heart had decided to ignore the possibility to have an equally strong woman on your side. Tell me, what makes her better than the warrior who’s been on your side all these years and saved your life countless times? You’ll only get killed because of her. You are walking right into Loki’s trap without thinking because your emotions are blinding you. Don’t you see it?”

“I am aware of the trap we have to face, Sif, but I do not wish to walk into it unprepared” he said calmly and seriously “Sif, you are a strong and wonderful woman who will make someone beyond happy. But that someone is yet to be seen with your eyes. You think that I am that person, but you’ll see that it is not true. Jane isn’t better from you… she is just… different. She brings change, that is true. I believe that change, even if it might appear first as bad will make us stronger and turn into something on which we’ll be able to build a new future. The good people of Asgard weren’t so united like this for a very long time. Look around… they are helping us to rebuild the city and they are growing stronger with each day, rising from the ashes like we always do. I believe I might be not the only one who is blinded by emotions. Please, understand that I love Jane and I will go save her even if I have to go alone” he frowned watching her reactions “The question is: do I have to go alone?”

Sif knew that the other two warriors were watching them too from the corner of their eyes, but she didn’t care. She let her dark eyes look deep into the clear blue ones as her decision was born. She saw how calm and determined Thor was. Nothing like his hot-headed old self who’d run into a pointless battle with head first. He really has changed a lot since he’d met that woman, Sif had to give that to her. She was just hoping she wouldn’t get their future king killed. “No… you don’t have to go alone. Right, boys?” she turned to Fandral and Volstagg as she stepped back from Thor with a small smile on her lips, thinking about what he’d just told her.

“I don’t see any scenario where that could happen, my dear friends!” Fandral walked back to them.

“I feel the same. When do we start?” Volstagg asked.

“Thank you, my friends” Thor flashed a white smile on them for a second then turned to their gatekeeper. “Heimdall?”

“Begin your preparations… and dress warm. You are going to Niflheim soon.”

The four friends looked at each other meaningfully then Volstagg looked back at Heimdall “The Land of Ice and Mist…”
