Coming Back

We sat with our backs against the wall, on opposite sides of the giant doors leading to the Grand Meeting Hall of the Gods. It seemed like DAYS since we'd brought the weapons back to them...

"No...it doesn't SEEM like days Magni....you idiot...it HAS been Days...." Domix interrupted my cool introduction... "FIVE Days to be clear....and I'm bored practically to DEATH here...you know...you COULD be a GOOD BROTHER and Entertain me or something..."

My eyes closed and slowly twitching the more he talked...I finally cut him off at the end of his talking. "DOMIX....One more word....just ONE MORE WORD....seriously...you think YOU'RE the only one who's BORED?!" I growled. "Only I'm not just bored....I'm IRRITATED..." I hissed.

Domix fell completely silent. Then smirked and turned to say something else...no doubt to incite my temper to it's highest peak...yet he didn't have the chance...the moment he opened his mouth was the moment the giant doors finally swung open. The Gods all filed out, all save very few.

"MAGNI, MODI...ENTER!" Odin's Voice boomed.

We came inside and bowed low before him.

"The weapons are finally sealed. They will be taken and kept away from the world forever, more importantly...OUT of the hands of the mortals." He announced. "We praise you for the success of your mission...you are hereby deemed worthy of your titles, may none doubt your capabilities."

With that, he rose and exited. We stood up and walked over to our father, then began to head out accordingly.

"Pfft...worthy of your title....nonsense!" One of the other gods exiting sneered...glaring at the both of us. "That mission was child's play...and both of you know it. Even a Hero-in-Training could've pulled it off...don't let it go to your heads! Even if Odin approves of you...that means nothing..."

The impudence of this man was quite irritating, not surprisingly...it set both Modi and Father off...however I stopped them both with a signal from my hand.

"I would be careful of just WHAT you say...oh mighty lord." I stated coolly...though my fist was clenched tightly. "After all...if I'm not mistaken...you just stated that Lord Odin's opinion WASN'T of any importance. Last I checked...it was HE in charge here...not yourself. If he were to hear those words...I'm sure..."

The man glared at me with perhaps the greatest evil sneer in his arsenal...and walked off without a further word. He didn't even care to hear the rest of my lecture...for he knew just where it was headed.

"Well...you've been here for quite some time...I'm sorry you weren't able to sit in...but there was quite a bit of deliberation..." Thor explained as we walked back to the carriage with him. "You should both return to your respective organizations I suppose...even though I'm sure Gersemi and Hnoss would love to see the both of you...we've kept you away for far too long."

"Yeah..." I acknowledged.

We both farewelled our father as he departed, then saying a brief parting word to each other, opened up portals and returned to our respective castles. Immediately...I could feel the change in the castle...something was different.

First stop was the kitchen. Grabbing some bread, I gnawed on it as I walked around the halls...trying to grasp just WHAT had been going on...the castle just felt so empty....

A stop in the training room told me there had been a major battle there....recently....continuing on...I headed for the West Tower. I had to find Triskix...he would know what was going on. As I ascended the stairs, I soon found myself before Rexikat's room. Sighing...I stopped and knocked on her door.

"Rex!! You in there??!" I called out. "Just what the HELL's Been Going on around here?! ....come on Rex....open up..."

I waited there patiently.
