Thor was in throne room, standing right to odin's side. Frigga, who looked worried, stood right across him, at all-father's left side. Councils from all the seven realms kept coming with gifts to state their friendship to asgard and their loyalty to all-father himself.
Odin seemed worried as well. ,,where is your brother, thor?'' he whispered to his son when vanaheim's delegation left and they stay alone for several minutes. Loud sound of people clapping and singing made some privacy possible. ,,I don't know'' thor answered ,,haven't seen him since'' he pressede his memory to remember if had he ever seen loki after that evening, which was 5 days ago. No, he hadn't. odin's demanding look tear him away from those thoughts ,,haven't seem him for a while'' he was not sure he wanted to clearify how long this ,,while'' was. Odin looked at frigga. Frigga seemed worried too ,,I've not seen him for several days, as well''
Thor felt anger and guit at the same time. So it seems, loki hasn't been around for at last 4 days and nodoby noticed it before he was ,,needed'' for a public ceremony. Frigga called one of the servants and sent him for loki. ,,you're brother has become even more irresponsible then he ever was before'' he hissed in a low voice and turned to greet with a smile to Alfheim's delegation. ,, the ceremony will be over in less then 10 minutes and he didn't show up. Isn't he aware that his status as a prince of asgard is at stake after those stupid things he'd done with jotunheim and midgard?''
Frigga shooked her head nervously. She knew, loki could be blamed of much things, but not irresposibility. He was always fond of those rituals and his pleace at her side. Something should be wrong. She wished she could just leave everything and go find him, but she was queen at her place was by king's side.
Thor noticed the servant coming back. He stood neraby silently. Odin got greetings from guests and it was time for a feast to start. The three of them left the throne room and got to feast hall, valhallah. Odin sat in the top of the table. Frigga next to him and thor at right side to odin. He felt so uncomfortable looking the empty chair opposite to him. loki should be sitting there. Where is he?
,,so, where is my son?'' odin looked at the servant who was all trembling.
,,all-father, he refused to come.''
Odin stared at him with a look that could shake the ground beside his feet. ,,,go to him now and tell him that it is my ORDER that he should join the feast'' ,,and my wish, as well'' frigga added with a kind smile.
Several minutes passed while the guests were escorted to their places. Odin waited a bit and the give a sigh for a feast to start. At the exact moment, the door opened and loki came in. outburst of anger run through thor's veins when he saw people looking towards loki and whispering.
Loki took his place next to frigga's and smiled to her. He didn't pay attention to odin and thor at all. Thor looked away as well, but when he actually dared to look at his brother, he realised something was wrong with him. thor couldn't say exactly what, but that weird feeling that loki was in trouble made him look at his brother twice. And he noticed something; loki's hands were not that pale as they always used to – little blue spots were on them and they kept changing place and size. Thor stared at loki astonished. Was he playing some kind of joke on the guests? Had he gone mad? He knew well, his brother had a good control over his jotun side and he would never show it despite he wanted to do so, but why would play that trick now? Thor was searching for loki's look and when loki at least lift his head, thor saw something in his eyes he;d never seen before; not even when his army was devastated and he was taken as a SHIELD prisoner, not when he let go and felt from the bifrost, never – it was fear and thor realised that loki had lost control over himself, no matter how hard loki tried to concentrate, stains onhis skin grew bigger and even reached half of his face. One of his eyes was still green but the other grew bright red. Loki stood up so quiqly that his chair felt on the floor. Some of the guests turned their head toward him. thor closed his eyes; the thunder was coming and for the first time in his whole life, he was afraid of it.
Silence felt in the hall. The illusion of a feast disappeared.
