[IC] The Raven King ("Man With Horns" Sequel) { Jazz & Angel }

[AngelBites15]

"My fate is certain, Loki. I can't", she shook her head before she gave a harsh breath from her wound. As he said about his apology, she gave a sad proud smile to him. "You'll always be my son. I will always love you. I'm sorry", she whispered before her eyes looked up at the ceiling slowly and gave a sigh before her chest stopped moving, her hand falling limp in Loki's grip.

[Jazz]

Loki felt his head hang after Maleficent took her final breath and no longer in this world. He sobbed for his loss, slowly moving her hand away as he held it like it was delicate and fall apart. However something crossed his mind. The healing magic that could possibly help her. So Loki placed her hand aside and his hand was then on her chest. Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, He used his magic and what strength he had left to hear Maleficent in hopes of bringing her back.

[AngelBites15]

The magic flowed from Loki's hand to Maleficent's wound and it miraculously healed. The leftover flow of the magic went into Maleficent's soul, fading into her body. But the fae didn't respond.

[Jazz]

Loki opened his eyes when the flow of magic faded, looking to the body of Maleficent who didn't seem to be waking. Feeling his heart fall, the Jotun felt like it didn't work. "I am...so sorry...You had done so much for me and I wanted to do something for you. You showed me kindness, love, laughter...what it meant to protect. You showed me everything I am sure a mother would. I miss you already and I wish I can spend more time with you." Loki wiped his tears that formed over time. Leaning down, Loki's had his forehead touch her forehead for a moment or two before he lifted his head and placed a kiss there.

[AngelBites15]

Maleficent's body didn't stir as she laid in her son's arms. However, as he placed a kiss to her forehead, all was silent. She stayed in the same position before her chest rose quickly. Her eyes opened quickly with a gasp from her mouth. The fae began to breathe normally as she looked up at her son. "Loki", she whispered to him.

[Jazz]

Loki had sat where he had been for sometime with Maleficent in his arms. Sitting there in silence, saddened by the fact that it didn't work. Not knowing how long her had been sitting there for, Loki felt movement and jolted up as he noticed that Maleficent was breathing. Amazed, the Jotun smiled with joy as she then opened her eyes and gasped for air and breath normally. Hearing his come from her, Loki hugged her. "Mother! It worked! He never felt so happy that he could heal someone and that be his mother.

[AngelBites15]

Maleficent hugged him back with the same love and warmth as she would always give him. "I am so proud of you", she said to him with a proud smile. "I need to stand, my son", she said to him in a whisper as she tried to stand up.

[Jazz]

Loki nodded as he helped her stand as he stood. Supporting her if she wished it. Loki then took this time to look around at all that was left. Dead bodies, broken black glass, weapons. And the dwarves that came in and looked around themselves of all that was left.

[AngelBites15]

Eric walked towards Loki, still holding the shield that he had to battle the glass warriors. "It's over", he said as he approached the pair. "The darkness is no more"

[Jazz]

Loki looked to Eric who still held his shield. He looked relieved, even felt relieved. Going up to Eric he hugged him, hugged him tightly, happy that he was alright. "It over."

[AngelBites15]

Eric returned the hug to Loki.

The darkness was over and the two kingdoms began to heal. With no ruler, there was at least a member of the royal family who would take the throne.

People stood throughout the throne room, cheering, as Loki and Maleficent walked down the line.

Maleficent's outfit:

Loki helped all he could to help restore the liveliness of nature to the Moors and Asgard to how they were years ago. Help the land heal, even the animals. Over that time, he discovered a raven, one that seemed intrigued. Loki looked to the raven as it reminded him of his dear friend and companion, Diaval. Yes, he missed him and would always miss him. Going over and curiously went to touch the bird, the raven let him and the Jotun could only smile.

Throughout Asgard, with the crowning of the heir that was to take the throne of the kingdom, Loki of course took part, walking down the line with his mother, Maleficent. Though tailing slightly behind, Loki smiled, a raven on his shoulder. Feeling proud and happy as he heard the cheers of the Asgardians. Rather they were for them, he was unsure, but they were happy and that was all he cared about.

Loki's outfit:

[AngelBites15]

As Maleficent helped Loki restore the Moors to its natural beauty, she stood upon her throne before a glow appeared on her back. It was striking to see that her wings were back to her. Stretching them out wide, she looked upon Loki as she silently told him that they came back to her. She made a grin before taking flight through the trees.

Maleficent walked down the line with Loki as he railed slightly behind before they get to the front of the throne and stood to the side at the stairs where Eric stood. The huntsman stood before the crowd before he turned to the magical beings giving them a nod of his head in thanks.

"In the name of all that is good in this land, I crown you king of Asgard", the priest said as he laid the crown upon Eric's head. "Hail to the king!", Maleficent called to the people of Asgard. The crowd began to bow before him, including the fae and Jotun.

[Jazz]

Loki stood on the stairs as well, looking to Eric who he saw turn to the crowd, Maleficent and the Jotun. Seeing him nod, Loki nodded to him and smiled. Being pronounced King and the crown being placed on his head, Loki's smile grew as the crowd cheered. Seeing the crowd bow before him, he noticed that they too bowed before the fae and Jotun. Loki looked to his mother with a smile before looking to Asgard's new King and lover.

Within the Moors at the cliff of where Hometree was, Loki stood by the tree by himself as his mother was back on her duties as queen of the Moors, its protector. Loki was still the protector, but also Prince for it seemed fitting. Yes he could handle the responsibilities, but he could never be as great as Maleficent was and would ever be. Well that was just his opinion. Loki still kept the hair length that he had grown, thought it quite fitting for him as well. A Raven flew over to him, landing on a branch right next to him. He gently pet the raven's head. Though thought of Eric who was now King of Asgard.

[AngelBites15]

Maleficent landed on the tree that Loki sat on. "It's beautfiul to watch the sunset", she said as her wings folded behind her back while she looked upon the palace of Asgard. "First you were boy, then you grew into a man. A strong, gentle, brave man", she said as she stroked his hair. She noticed his gaze towards Asgard. "I know you miss him. The huntsman", she replied.

[Jazz]

Loki sitting on one of the branches soon after, looking to the Kingdom of Asgard. He looked to his mother who had landed on one of the branches of the tree. Looking back to Asgard, Loki smiled, looking at the ground below him when she complemented him on how much he had grown, though could never stop looking toward the Kingdom his lover was residing in. He felt her hand stroking is hair but that didn't deter him from looking away. He nodded though when she stated that he missed Eric. "I do. I feel torn. I want to be here, with you and being the protector that I know I want to be. But my heart also wanted to be with Eric. I don't know what to do." He was obviously confused on his feelings. With his heart being tugged between the two, he didn't know what to do now. He figured sending letters wasn't enough for he wanted to see him in person, be with him.

[AngelBites15]

"Loki, he's not Thor. Not at all. He's Eric; he will always come and visit you. It's just..", she trailed off as she looked at him watched Asgard. "When youre King, there is more than being on a tree. With Eric, it's the same", she told him softly. "He'll come. I promise you that", she said before soothing his hand.

[Jazz]

Loki heard his mother out, listening to her reassuring words as he thought them over. He knew Eric was nothing like his brother, knew that he would come to visit him. But he was unsure if he was able go to Asgard to see him. Loki knew he would be busy attending with Kingly matters and helping the kingdom restore itself to it original glory back when Silena was Queen with Balder by her side as King. "I could go and see him too, can't I?" He was still learning about love. Thought he knew all about it. Only to realize he knew little.

[AngelBites15]

"You can. He should be free to see you soon", the fae said to him with a nod before she moved a piece of hair from his face. "Sooner than you think", a male voice said below them as Eric pulled back his hood. Eric looked up the tree at the two before pulling a smile.

[Jazz]

Loki smiled, though turned when he heard an all too familiar voice below them. Looking down at the hooded figure who pulled back his hood to show it was Eric. Loki grinned as he slipped off the branch and onto a few others gracefully till he dropped off the last branch and infront of Eric who he then gave a big hug to. "It's wonderful to see you." He said to him in greeting.
