Chapter 5: Familiar Face
He stood at a distant as he watch them lower the coffin into the hole. The gloomy weather reflected all those who turned up for the burial. All except him. At this moment, instead of sadness, he felt elated. Yes, elated. He had been waiting for this moment forever. Soon…… He smirked, thinking about all the possibilities of spending eternity with her. He turned and left as the first drop of rain fell.

Odin sighed as he watched people stepping forward to offer condolences to her father. Such a pity for a vibrant child to pass on like this. To some extent, she was special to him.
He could still remember that day when Balder and his own conscious had pushed her awareness aside and took control of her body. For a brief moment he was enveloped in her warmth that was her soul. Soothing, comforting and loving. Like a mother’s embrace. Is every human like this, or is it just her? And from then on he knew why his blood brother, Loki, had been so reluctant to leave her.
From the corner of his eyes, he saw a hooded figure hiding behind a statue. He stared as the figure, trying hard to remember why his presence felt so familiar. The figure turned and left after staring for a few minutes at the burial ground.
“Is something wrong, Odin-sama?”
“Nothing, Urd. Just thought I saw someone I know.”
‘It couldn’t be him…right? He had been missing since last millennium. No. Must be my mind playing tricks on me.’
He sighed again and turned back to watching the burial procession.
Loki didn’t turn up. He had locked himself in his room, without eating and sleeping. The other Gods had been at a lost to get him to eat something. They had tried to force feed him and drug his water to make him sleep. In the end, he had snarled and blasts them out of his room. He locked his door and proceeded to ward up his room. No one had seen him since two nights ago.
He hated seeing him like that. If only he had regained his full power, he will be able to bring her back even without the help of Idun’s apple. Ever since his resurrection, his power had been regaining but at a slow pace.
Is this fate? That Loki had to lose his beloved? Even the Goddesses of fate can’t answer that question. With the lost of their powers for the time being, it seems that fate had a decided to take things into her own hand.
He had wondered why fate had resurrected him and the Norns. It had puzzled him. Had someone been tempering with fate and hence changed all their destinies? If so, who is it?

Darkness… to some people it is something scary and horrifying. To him, it was comfort. He had been in the dark for all these years. Plotting and waiting for this day to come. It was a regret that she had to die first before he can accomplish what he had set out to do. Well never mind… the man had cause her pain had been severely dealt with.
He looked at the clock on the wall, and noted the time to be half an hour to twelve midnight. He smiled.
‘Time for action.’ He thought merrily. The next moment the room was empty. The man had vanished into thin air.

Shin walked up the path leading to the grave freshly buried today. He heard that it was a teenage girl who was brutally murdered a few days back. Being a night security for the graveyard, he thought it would be polite of him to ‘pay a visit’ to the ‘new resident’.
He flashed his flashlight around, scanning the graveyard trying to detect anything unusual. He had work as a grave security guard for nearly 5 years, and nothing scary or unusual happened. He stopped as he came face to face with the picture of the ‘new resident’. His eyes widen slightly. The girl in the picture is…was really beautiful. Long flowing pink hair and soulful eyes. She looked really exquisite, like a Madonna. Pity that she had died so young.
“Hi, I’m Shin the security guard here. Really sorry that you had to be here.” He whispered. He shook his head, suddenly feeling very stupid.
“She won’t be here long.” Shin froze when he heard a low voice right behind him. He turned slowly to face the intruder and silently pray under his breath. “In fact, she will be leaving right now.”
The man behind him had long dark hair that covers most of his face. Those little part of his face that can be seen is simply gorgeous. An Adonis that came for his Madonna. Only that she is dead.
“Wh…who are you?” Shin stuttered. “You shouldn’t be here…”
“I won’t take long. In the mean time…. I think you should take a little nap.” Shin blinked and looked straight at the man’s eyes. They glowed red for a moment and Shin suddenly felt himself falling into darkness.
***********************
Shin groaned when he tried to open his eyes. His whole body aches.
“You finally woke up. Scare the hell out of me when I found you lying on the ground next to an empty grave and the body went missing. What happened?” Shin’s colleague asked.
“Huh? I… I don’t remember…….”
“Well… the police will be arriving soon. Just tell them what you remember.” His colleague look puzzled. “If you ask me, I have no idea why someone would steal a body of a teenage girl.
