Alrighty! Dedications to:
superkawaiifoxy for being the first reviewer again!
Violeta Ash for being the first to guess(in a review) who Moriko is!
Crystale no otaku for being the third reviewer!
And thank you for those who reviewed, it made me so happy!
So you'll know who Moriko is(as if you don't...) in this chapter. And it's quite short but the next chapters are already done so it's okay! Now onto the story!
After class Moriko quickly left the room, Mayura puzzled by the new action followed her with her eyes.
"I wonder if I upset her…" the pink haired mystery otaku mumbled. She felt so guilty of accusing Moriko. The feeling was pushed aside and determination filled her crimson eyes. "I'll apologize first thing tomorrow." She told herself with an air of finality and went home as well.

Moriko sighed as she placed her things on the dining table of her house. All she wanted was to get out of her uniform and take a long relaxing bath.
And that was what she did. Within a few minutes she was in a large tub filled with warm steaming water. She slid in a little deeper and relaxed.
Her golden locks floated on water as she breathed in and out, she closed her eyes and thought of how she got into her current situation. She remembered it clearly.

"Idun…"
The golden haired goddess turned to look at an old man with a long white beard in robes walking towards her. The wizard hat he wore was resting on his head in a lopsided manner that partially covered his right eye. It was the eye that he sacrificed in order to gain the Wisdom of Ages.
She stood up with an apple in her hands and gave a polite bow, her toga like dress flowing freely down her frame. "Good to see you Odin…what do I owe this presence?"
"I need you to do something for me." It was more of an order than a request, always like that.
"What is it?" she inquired.
"There is this girl in Midgard…" Odin furrowed his white brows, his eye glinting under the sun. "She's a bit like Sigyn. I want you to check on her; it seems that Loki was associated to her."
Idun looked at Odin. "What do you mean like Sigyn? How could a human girl be like Sigyn besides she had been missing…" Idun trailed off.
The strawberry blonde goddess just vanished in a spur of the moment. No one knew where she went. And she knew even if the trickster god didn't show it he was worried then. If she thought about it, the disappearance of Sigyn mostly affected her and Loki.
"I just want you to see, since you had been closest to Sigyn…" Idun nodded understanding the chief god's reason.
"As you wish then…"

Moriko opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling of her bathroom, steam had accumulated up there, fogging up the tiled room.
"Mayura Daidouji…" she raised a hand to up as if to touch the ceiling. "I need to know who you are…I need to know how you and Sigyn are connected. I have to, at least for my peace of mind."

Back up in Asgard…
Loki took his usual path to Idun's place. It surprised him to not see a golden haired girl raving about her youthful apples but a basketful of apples put aside near a trunk of a tree. He walked towards it and took one.
"Loki-sama, where could Idun-sama be? She's usually here, isn't she?" asked Yamino as he slithered next to his father's feet. It was more convenient to be a normal sized snake than his original form, Yamino concluded, at least now he was able to be with Loki everywhere.
"I'm not sure, Yamino…" Just then Ecchan woke up from his usual napping place(on top of Loki's head) and floated beside the trickster god.
Loki stared at the vast greenery in front of him. Idun was sure into nature. He remembered when he usually went here since a certain goddess stayed with Idun.
He wouldn't admit it but he seemed to have felt more than physical attraction towards the strawberry blonde goddess with the brightest crimson eyes he had ever seen.
Well, that was before he met Mayura.
He couldn't believe how bright and alive her eyes were or how she was so cheerful all the time. Loki sighed as he remembered their parting. It wasn't much really, he erased her memories and that was that. He told himself not to think about it because every time he did, he felt a pang in his heart which was so similar to the feeling he had when Sigyn disappeared, only it was worse.
So much worse.
