"What about them?" Freya turned to Loki and raised a brow, "He's not part of you again, is he? You're not going to kill any guy who does so much as wink at me, are you?"
Svana ignored Freya and poked her twin. No response. She felt for a pulse; it was fast, and very irregular. She started to freak; if she wasn't so exhausted, she'd heal him. But she couldn't, so now Xander would be stuck like this.
"Maybe it would be better if I had the shadow rather than Rika," Loki muttered. "I know better than anyone how to control it, and it will destroy Rika if it remains within her for much longer."
