Capítulo 44: Goodbyes and Beginnings.
Loki kissed Elane on the cheek as she showed him a pouty teary face.
"Don't worry Elane, big brother will be back in a bit." Loki said trying to console the little girl who was crying and depressed.
"But I wan' Big Bwother." Elane said cutely as she shook her head refusing Loki's plans.
Loki felt a twinge of regret in his heart but since he knew this was for the betterment of Elane he wrapped his arms around Elane and hugged her tightly.
"Come on Little sis, I know you can do it. I promise it will be fun at Aunt Cassandra's place."
"But I wan' Big Bwother."
"Aww…how about this, I will meet you every Christmas?" Loki said with a soft smile, wiping away the tears on Elane's face.
*sniffle* *sniffle*
But the little girl shook her head with a frown.
"Alright, I understand you want to be with your big brother. How about using this?" Loki said handing over a silver mirror polished to shine.
"What is this Big Bwother?" Elane asked cutely as she wiped away the snot which was leaking from her slightly red nose.
"This will allow you to always talk to me when you want to. It is a Two Way Mirror." Loki said with a smile as he showed his own copy of the mirror.
"Two-way miwor?" Elane asked shaking the mirror.
"Yes, look at this." Pouring a little bit of his spirituality into the mirror, Loki pointed it at his face much like when phones were used for video calling.
"Big bwother is in the miwor!?" Elane shouted surprised as she looked at Loki in the mirror.
"Yes, little sis, you can talk to me while using the mirror. See I can see you in my mirror." Loki said showing Elane his own mirror with her face on it.
"How do I talk to big bwother?" Elane asked and Loki complied by going a little far away from Elane, and when she attempted to follow him he asked her to wait outside the room which saddened her a bit but Loki was quick.
"Elane! Look here! Can you hear me!?" Elane's head instantly snapped toward the mirror in her hand as she spotted Loki's face in it waving his hand and talking to her.
"Big bwother!!!!!" Elane shouted excitedly. She tried to touch her brother's face in the mirror but couldn't since it was just a reflection.
"You can talk to me like this Elane." Loki said with a soft smile and pulled out his spirituality from the mirror powering off the connection that allowed them to talk to each other.
Elane felt a little unhappy at seeing Loki vanishing from her mirror but she calmed down when Loki appeared through the door he'd just gone away.
"Did you like it?" Loki asked Elane, but she pouted at him and turned away.
Seeing his sister was playing hard to get, he did the best thing he knew to get her mood up and high again.
"Who's angwy with Big Bwother?" Loki said mimicking how Elane spoke.
"Who's angwy with Big Bwother?" Loki asked Elane as he reached around her and began to lightly poke her tummy.
"Who's angwy with Big Bwother?" Loki asked again but this time he started to drag his finger across her stomach and under her armpits.
"Elane is!!!" Loki said happily as he began to tickle Elane and pushed her around while she laughed until she felt her stomach split.
"Big Bwother Stop it!!!!!" Elane shouted but Loki continued to tickle her.
With Elane laughing her mood was soon refreshed but she still looked a little sad at the prospect of leaving her big brother and going off with an aunt she didn't know all alone.
Loki was equally sad when he noticed this but refrained from bringing up the topic since Elane was already unhappy and it was quite hard to bring up her mood.
With Elane's mood fixed, Loki spent the rest of the week with her going to different places around London and playing with her so that she would have the best time of her life.
She even got to eat two chocolates a day since she was going to leave Loki soon.
Loki during these days spent a lot of his time writing the do's and don'ts so that Trelawney wouldn't have to figure out Elane's likes and dislikes from scratch by going in blind.
He wrote up what looked like a mini booklet that was titled, 'Elane in a nutshell.'
'Does she even need this? Isn't she a prophet? I'm sure she can do without it, but just in case she needs a little extra boost.'
At the end of the week, Trelawney arrived at the Black home and waited with Kreacher to meet Loki and Elane.
Cassandra and Loki spoke for a while, but Loki could clearly feel that Cassandra was holding something back, yet Loki felt that their conversation was fruitful.
"Since you taught at Hogwarts before, could you tell me about the Beyonder gathering circles which are there?" Loki asked hoping to get some insider information.
"No, Hogwarts is "His" domain now. There are no reliable Beyonder gatherings in the school. It is hard enough for anyone other than those in his faction to survive in the school, creating a beyonder gathering that goes against his laws would be like spitting in his face." Cassandra shook her head.
"But students above the fourth year are given, let's say a few opportunities? The school works with the ministry, specifically the Unspeakables, to allow children from the twenty-eight noble families to attend missions if they're Beyonders. But even that is quite hard to do if you're not in 'His' faction."
"You can't even take his name?" Loki asked shocked.
"Sometimes it is better not to know things before you are capable enough.", Cassandra explained.
'At least I know that there is someone dangerous in the school. Hopefully, I don't get caught by him. It's a shame that beyonder gatherings are not allowed in the school, but now that I think about it, I can still run the Tarot Card club without anyone noticing anything wrong.'
"Are you ready?" Trelawney asked Loki and although it seemed to anyone else that Trelawney was asking about Elane, Loki could feel that she was alluding to more than she was letting on.
"Yes.", Loki responded with a steely expression since he was ready to bear whatever burdens were going to come his way.
'After all, it's not like I can say goodbye to the Beyonder world now. Not after I've already become a Beyonder who has become a part of the mad world that is sure to be filled with crazy adventures.'
"Bye-bye Elane.", Loki said after a short hug he gave to Elane.
"Bye-Bye Big Bwother. Make sure to talk to me every day!" Elane said cutely causing Loki to feel dizzy from the cuteness overload.
"I promise.", Loki said forming a pinky promise with Elane. "Make sure not to trouble Aunty Trelawney."
"Ok~ Big Bwother."
With that done, Loki saw off Terlawney and Elane with a slightly downcast and longing gaze.
But now that everything was done, Loki slapped his cheeks a few times to get into the mood and began to follow the next steps of his plan.
"Kreacher!!" Loki shouted, causing Kreacher to teleport into the hallway with a loud *Pop*.
"Are my things packed?" Loki asked calmly.
"Yes, Master." Kreacher nodded.
"Good then teleport me to that place."
"....are you sure you want to do this master?" Kreacher asked and Loki explained with a smile on his face.
"I'm not strong enough yet Kreacher, once I am I won't take such demeaning measures. I've got to keep the reputation of the Black family after all."
"I understand Master.", Kreacher said and nodded before holding Loki's outstretched hands and teleporting with him to the burnt-down shack that Loki used to live in with Elane.
"You may leave Kreacher.", Loki said with a slight nod and allowed Kreacher to leave.
Changing into a few old dull clothes, Loki now fit in with the house well and looked like just any other street rat in the eastern part of town.
"Well, let's begin the plan to swindle everyone to buy time. Time for my growth and time for gaining power."
With a determined gaze, Loki looked at the horizon as if anticipating a new morning to wash him over the next day, giving his life a new turn for the better.
