Chapter 13
They reached their mother and brother, Frigga got up and she ran to her son and daughter she gave them a hug and a kiss. "Mother, please not in front of Thor." Loki begged. Frigga just smiles at her son and she noticed that he looks embarrassed. Loki puts his little sister down Dalia looks up and she notice that her big brother looks uncomfortable, "Laowki, what's wrong big brother?" She asked for she wanted to make him feel better.
"I'm fine sweetie, don't worry about me let's just go and enjoy the rest of our picnic." Loki said. Dalia took Loki and her mommy's hand and they walked over to Thor who was sitting on the blanket. She sat down and started to munch on he apple slices again. After they finish their lunch Dalia her snuggles next to her big brothers and she fell asleep. Loki reached out and brushed a tendril of her hair out of her little sleeping face. Thor cleared his throat, "She sleep safely here brother…" He commented.
Loki nodded, "Maybe…instead of fighting between us over her, maybe we should band together…protect our sister." He kept his green eyes glued to the sleeping girl, almost worried that Thor would think would it to be a silly a idea.
"I agree you with you Loki." Thor said. Loki's head snapped up, there was hope in his eye. "Then protect this princess we shall. Her honor will not be sullied."
"Loki, brother, our sister is only two years old right now." Thor said.
"Soon she will be older though Thor." Loki reminded him, "Soon she will no longer be a child." Thor raised a hand to scratch his chin, "Humm…you are right on that brother." Loki and Thor along with their mother noticed that Dalia was sucking her thumb while she slept next to her two older brothers. Loki brushed a lock of his sister's light brown hair out of her face. "She is so small." Frigga said softly, "Yet she loves with such a big heart."
"She will be a great warrior one day." Thor said.
"Or a mighty scholar!" Loki countered. Frigga laughed at her sons, "Why don't we let her decide for herself when she is older."
"She is feisty and that is why she would make a great warrior." Thor said.
"Yes, but she also has a caring heart." Loki said, "Do you remember when Dalia found a baby bird that had fallen out of it's nest?"
"Of course, I do brother." Thor said.
"Do you remember how old she was? Loki asked. Thor thought for a moment, "No, but do you remember how old our sister was when she found the baby bird?"
"I do. Dalia was only a year old when she found the baby bird." Loki said. Thor hummed, "I do vaguely remember that."
"Alright and do you remember what she want to do with the baby bird?" Loki asked.
"She want to put the baby bird back in it's nest." Thor said.
That's right." Loki said.
