Both Jotun brothers had arrived at the courtroom, where their parents were seen talking to a large group of muscular Jotun. Both parties were mad at one another and Loki couldn't hear what they were talking about. But, Helbindi was concerned about what might happen if the opposing Jotuns were to attack his parents.

"Helbindi, are you worried about them, right?" Loki asked with worry in his voice. "I am not sure if they are going to attack our parents or not."

Helbindi hesitated to answer before replying back. "Well, Loki, I am not going to lie, I am concerned for our parents, but, yet, the group should be concerned that if they continue to taunt our parents, then they are going to regret it sooner or later."

Loki was a little confused at the statement. "What do you mean?"

"Well, Loki, our parents have the uncanny ability to make an enemy's death look natural and not suspicious and can't be traced back to them, no matter what. They are very careful in that department and if they suspect that someone is working for the enemy, then that individual must watch their back and must sleep with their eyes open," Helbindi replied.

Now, Loki was both concerned and smiling, now knowing that his birth parents could defend themselves in such a manner. But, he had no worries because he was sure that they wouldn't do such a thing to their children.

Just as Helbindi was about to comment to his earlier response, his train of thought was soon interrupted by an angry roar that came from one of the opposing Jotuns.

"Stop lying, you twats," the leader of the group yelled towards Laufey, earning himself an unexpected punch to his face by Farbauti.

And seconds later, the leader was feeling pain in the face. A stinging sensation was spreading all over his face and was soon spread on his muscular body. A few of his guards managed to get him before he fell to the ground. He snarled towards Farbauti.

"What did you do?"

Farbauti smirked before answering him. "Oh, you know, payback for saying such things. He should know better before saying them in the first place. Besides, Loki is a full-blood Jotun, even if he was raised in Asgard. That doesn't change his bloodline."

Laufey smiled before agreeing to his wife's statements about his youngest son. "You heard my wife. Nobody is allowed to say such accusation before having any proof. Although Loki wasn't raised here, he is still Jotun. I will make this very clear right now. Whoever still has that mentality, then you have the option of leaving Jotunheim or be killed under my command."

Seeing that they were talking about him, Loki's heart dropped. Helbindi noticed his brother's discomfort and without saying a word, he grabbed Loki's hand and dragged him away from the verbal fight.

"I'm sorry you got to witness that," Helbindi said as they got into a room just down the hall from the courtroom.

Loki was about to reply when a knock interrupted them. "Come in."

Bylestir came into the room. He quickly closed the door behind him and smiled at his two brothers.

"Have you seen the fight mother and father are in?"

Both Heldbini and Loki nodded in sync.

"Yes, we have but the topic of their verbal confrontation is about Loki. It seems that the group is opposed of having Loki around," Helbindi answered back. Loki felt a little guilty just thinking about it.

"So, what are they going to do about it? Mother and father wouldn't allow anyone lay a finger on Loki," Heldbindi stated, causing Loki to laugh.

"I know, but knowing how the Jotuns from the southern region are notorious for their behavior," Bylestir replied.

"I know that fact like the back of my hand," Helbindi said. Loki was a little confused with the chatter because he wasn't sure how to respond to such things he heard.

Then, another knock was heard and Loki said, "Come in."

Farbauti and Laufey came in. They were wearing grins on their faces and their eldest sons were a little scared of them.

"Why are you smiling like that?" Bylestir asked. He hesitated greatly on asking the question as well as Helbindi.

"Because the southern group won't be able to interrupt us ever again," Laufey replied.

Both Helbindi and Bylestor sighed. They were expecting the worst from their mouths. And Loki was even more confused than before and he nervously asked.

"So, who are they exactly?"

Farbauti sat down right next to him on Loki's bed and answered him. "They are from the south of Jotunheim and when word got out that you will be staying here for a while, they got mad because they thought you were full fledged Asgardian. They didn't knew that you were my long lost son. But, they had some colorful vocabulary to express their feelings on the matter and said that they will start a war against us."

"They really said that mother?" Helbindi asked in anger. He will not allow anyone to hurt his baby brother, even if he had to kill the opponent.

Laufey nods. "Yes son, they did and they did threatened us with war. But, now, everything is already solved. You don't have to worry about a thing. We won't allow anyone to hurt Loki either."

The comment made Helbindi's anger to simmer down. But, he knows that it would take a few days for his anger to fully go away.

"They still have to watch their back because it is not only us that they should fear, but the fury of Asgard as well," Helbindi stated.

"Yeah, that is true," Bylestir agreed.

"What is going to happen to me now?" Loki asked. He was a little worried with everything he was told.

"No harm will come your way, if that is you're wondering," Farbauti said. Loki then hugged her and Farbauti hugged him in return.

"Mother, I already missed him," Thor said as he put his hammer down. Several times that day he came across Loki's room in order to tell him something and then remembers that he isn't there and won't be for quite a while. Frigga was seen knitting away a large blanket in order to cope with her sadness of not having Loki around.

"I know. We all do. It's hard not having him around and not being the receiving end of his playful tricks," Frigga mentioned.

Thor laughs at the comment before answering back. "I know. Me too mother. I wonder how he is coping being in the realms where he heard stories of being a bad place. I think that he is finding it hard to cope in that matter."

Frigga weakly smiles. "Yeah, with all the stories we fed you two about Jotunheim and all the frost giants, I think that Loki is having a hard time. But, I am sure that he will open up and have a good time there. And I think that it will break down the barriers, as well as the stereotypes, he had about Jotunheim."

"Yeah, and with that, maybe Asgard can learn to break down those mindsets as well mother."

Just as Frigga was about to reply back, Odin came into the room. "I am finally done with that meeting."

"It took longer than expected," Frigga commented.

"Yes, the speaker had a few more details but now, it is all good now. The next installment of the plan is how to execute it so that it could have motion and see where it goes from there," Odin replied. "And I see that you're busy knitting that blanket. You miss Loki."

"Yes, Odin. I truly do."

Odin smiles weakly. "I do too. I hope that he is coping well with his birth family."

"What do you think he is doing there?" Thor asked.

"We can ask Heimdall. If anything goes wrong, then he will tell us immediately," Frigga replied.

Thor nods without uttering a word. He misses his brother greatly and he wasn't sure how he is going to cope not having him around. "I think I will pay Heimdall a visit."
