Chapter 2:
The Rage of the Gods

Niiyama Masumi stood in front of the alley and stared at the scene before
him. To say the truth, he had been shocked beyond words when he received a call
to inform him of a murder, and the worst part is, the victim is his friend�s
daughter.

When he arrived, he saw his friend, Daidouji Misao, kneeling by his daughter�s side. Tears rolling down his
face as he held her cold lifeless hand in his. �Mayura�...� he had kept mumbling her name.

How could
anyone do such a thing to an innocent child? Niiyama took another look at his
friend and shook his head. He felt sad for his friend. To lose an only
child�it�s too painful.

�Inspector. We found a box here.� Niiyama went
to the officer and took the little blue box from him. It looked rumpled, like
she had clenched onto the box tightly. He frowned and opened the box. Inside
was a silver
pendant in the shape of a crescent moon with intricate design carved by the
side hanging on the thin leather stripe. There was a note inside too. It read:

Loki,

This
is for you. Hope you like it. And�I would like to thank you for staying.

Mayura

�Loki.� Niiyama had said out loud.

�That would be me.� A deep solemn voice answered.

Niiyama turned and saw the chestnut hair young man who had been
standing quietly by the side stepped forward.

This man had been here together with Misao and that green hair man
when they found the body. He had stood a distance from the body but his
expression was that of anguish. The green hair man had been comforting him
while a black pup snuggled by his feet. Oddly, he reminded him of a certain
little detective.

�Who are you?�

�Loki.� He replied with a monotone voice. Cold and without
emotion.

�Oh�we found this. I think it�s for you.� He passed the box to
him. He watched him opened the box and saw his eyes widened slightly when he
saw the pendant. After reading the message, he held it and the pendant tightly
over his chest.

�Mayura� I stayed for you. Why didn�t you do the same for me?�

�Can you tell me what happened? And how did manage to find
her�body?� Niiyama took out his notebook and his pen, ready to take down
information.

�Inspector�I can provide the information. I was with him all the
while.� Yamino interrupted. � We were taking the puppy out for a walk and
decided to visit Mayura-san. When her father told us she went to our place, we
took the short-cut back. Mayura-san�s father wanted to go with us, as he was
worried. When we were passing this way, the puppy must have detected her scent.
That is when we ��found her.�

�I see.� Niiyama�s pen was flying across the notebook, taking down
the information.

�You will find the murderer won�t you, Inspector?� The young man
Loki was looking at him with cold green eyes.

�Of course we will. When I get my hands on that bastard�I�ll��

�You had better hope I don�t get my hands on him first. He will
pay for what he had took from me.� For a moment there, Niiyama thought he saw
his eyes flashed red. He shook his head to shake that ridiculous thought. �Yes,
he will pay dearly with his life.�

He almost felt sympathy for the murderer. Almost, but not quite.
That bastard deserved it.

*****

For the first time in his life, the Midgard felt fear. His father
is giving off unsuppressed rage. He shivered as he followed behind him. Even
his not so sensitive nii-san had put some distant between him and his daddy.

�Loki-sama�please don�t do anything you will regret later.� Yamino
couldn�t help but worry. He knew that Mayura means a lot to Loki-sama, given he
had stayed instead of going back to Asgard. No, not only to Loki-sama.
Mayura-san means a lot to each and everyone of them. To him, Fenrir, Narugami-kun,
Frey-kun, Reiya-chan, even Heimdall-kun.

He was so lost in his thought that he didn�t realized Loki had
stopped. Yamino almost collided with him. �Loki-sama???� he peered over Loki�s
shoulder and was surprise when he saw the others standing outside their
mansion.

�Loki�� Freya had stepped closer to Loki and reached a trembling
hand to caress his cheek. �What happened? We could feel your anger.�

Loki said nothing and walked past her. He stopped in front of Urd,
the goddess of fate, lifted his head to fix her with his intense gaze. �I need
you to find out who killed Mayura.�

The group remained silence for a few seconds. �WHAT? What do you
mean by she is killed? You are kidding me right, Loki?� Frey exclaimed. �How
could you joke about such things, Loki?�

He paused when he noticed that Loki is not smiling. He turned to
look at Yamino. �He�s joking right?� Frey wasn�t so sure now after seeing
Yamino�s solemn face.

�It�s true. Mayura�Mayura-san was murdered.�

Several gasps were heard. Frey slowly slipped to the floor, tears
filled his eyes. Goddesses embracing each other, weeping silently at the lost.

�There�s no time to cry.� Loki�s cold voice penetrated the
mourning atmosphere.

�How could you be so heartless, Loki. I thought you care for her.�
Frey jumped up and grabbed Loki�s collar.

�No time for this. We have to find her murderer.� The coldness in
his voice once again cut through Frey�s anger. He shivered as he felt his life
in danger from Loki for the first time.

�Ha�hai.�

�Let us proceed to the living room.� With that Loki stepped around
the group to pushed open the gate.

*****

Odin sat in the living room, awaiting his return. He had felt his
anger, followed by devastation, even in Asgard. He became worried, so he had
came to find out what happened to him.

He looked up when the door opened. Loki looked at him with
emotionless eyes. Odin stood up and went to him.

�Why are you here?�

�I�m worried about you.�

Loki nodded and sat down.

�Urd, can you show me what happened to her?�

�Hai, Loki-sama.� Urd turned to Yamino, �Bring me a pile of water,
Yamino-san.�

�Hai.�

�Loki-sama, can I have
something of hers or anything from the vicinity of her�the scene.� It hurts to
acknowledge her death. Ever since the Norns were back on Midgard, they had
gotten closer to Mayura. She always makes them feel how great it is to be
living. Her whole being bubbles of innocent and energy.

Loki reached into his pocket and pulled out the necklace. The
necklace she had wanted to pass to him when she was�when she was�. He can�t finish
the thought. He handed the necklace to Urd.

�She was holding on to this when�� he didn�t finish it, but
everyone in the room knew what came after.

Urd gently took the necklace from Loki. She placed it on her right
palm over the pile of water. She closed her eyes and concentrated. Purple light
emitted from her body and faint images started to appear on the water. Each
second getting clearer and clearer.

Everyone peered closer. They saw her taking the short cut through
the deserted shops. Saw the man following her and how scared she had been. That
man had followed her into the alley, flashing his knife with a sadistic grin on
his face. Mayura had pushed the boxes at that man and ran out. The man rushed
after her and slammed her onto the floor. Mayura whimpered as the man stabbed
her. �LOKI�.� She had screamed his name.

Loki clenched his fist. He tasted blood in his month but didn�t
care. She had called out to him and yet hadn�t been there to save her. Without
blinking, he continued to watch as that man violated his Mayura.

After stabbing her, the man pulled out his camera and started
taking photos. He took pictures of Mayura as her life slowly flowed out of her.
He pulled out a pocket-knife and cut a few strands of her hair. �You are so beautiful. With
your blood drained out of you, your skin had turned snow white. Just like the
others. Only difference is that you look much more beautiful than them.� He was about to drag
Mayura�s body to somewhere when he heard footsteps approaching. He bent down to
kiss Mayura before running off.

Loki
wanted blood. That man�s blood. How dare he touch his Mayura. How dare he take
away what belongs to him. When he get his hand on him, he will wish he was
never born. He will die a slow painful death.

�Mina�I
want you to try and locate that man.� It wasn�t a request. It was a command. A
command the others would gladly obey. That man had dared to take a God�s
possession. He will pay the price.

�One
more thing. No one is to harm that man. Bring him to me when you find him.�
Loki had said it with such coolness that every God in that room shivered
slightly. �Thank you Urd. You can return me the necklace now.� He reached out
his hand towards her. Urd gently place the necklace on his palm.

Loki
clasped the necklace around his neck and wore it. He turned and went upstairs
to his room. He went straight to his bedroom and closed the door. The minute
the door closed, he leaned against it and slipped down. �Mayura�� he started
sobbing.
