The next morning, breakfast was annoying to deal with for Tom.

Thor was complaining about being left behind and bored out of his mind, while his brother Loki was staring daggers into the side of Tom's head.

Loki was beyond pissed off. He tried every trick in the book to escape besides outright attacking the elves, but nothing seemed to work.

If he did try to attack, Tom would use that as an excuse to send him back to Asgard, and the lecture awaiting him would be unbearable, so he's doing his best to stay in line. At least for now, that is.

As an elf passed and placed Loki's breakfast in front of him, the poor elf was met with a hard and hateful glare.

If looks could kill, that elf would be torn to little pieces in an instant.

"Dumb little floppy-eared midgets..." Loki mutters under his breath just loud enough for only the elf serving him to hear.

To the elf's credit, it didn't skip a beat and left after serving the angry prince his morning food.

"...I refuse to be left here again!" Thor continues the rant he has been spewing since he awoke this morning.

Beside him, Loki could be seen nodding and jeering along, fueling his brothers' long winded rant even further.

"Fine, you can come with me today. I was planning on taking you anyway." Tom agrees easily.

The reason he didn't take them yesterday is he was visiting his followers. He doesn't need Asgard knowing of his hold on the Wizarding world, nor does he need Loki finding out and wreaking havoc.

All in all, Tom simply likes to keep his personal business to himself.

"Yes! We're finally off to battle!" Thor exclaims happily while a vicious smile appears on his brother's face.

Tom can't just lock them away forever. The elves would be run ragged between Thor's boredom and Loki's constant escape attempts.

No doubt Loki is thinking up ways to get revenge for his earlier treatment.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, but we don't even know the location of the enemy yet. We're simply going to Kamar-Taj to inform my mother of what's happening." Tom says, causing Thor's excitement to deflate.

——————————————————

Soon, Tom and the Prince's portal'd over to Kamar-Taj.

Since he had company, Tom opened a portal in one of the many courtyards instead of his bedroom as he usually would.

Druella has been using his room as her own and Tom didn't need his tagalongs seeing anything they shouldn't.

Tom would have to erase their memories and possibly gouge their eyes out if that were to happen.

As soon as a portal opened in Kamar-Taj, literally every master in the place rushed to the courtyard with weapons out and ready for battle.

Since the attacks on the sanctums around the world started happening, the security in those sanctums and in Kamar-Taj itself has been upped drastically.

Hence the swarm of Master currently circling Toms portal.

Stepping out, Tom sees the battle-ready Masters and raises a single eyebrow.

"Did something happen while I was away?" Tom stared at them questioningly. "It's only been a few days."

Seeing that it's just Tom, the Masters became a lot less tense but still stayed on guard as this could be a trick.

Soon, the crowd parted, and out walked the Ancient One and Druella side by side.

Druella was dressed in the same-looking robes Tom was once forced to wear during his time studying under his mother and the other masters.

"Nice robes, Drue." Tom comments as soon as he sees her. "Now we just have to shave your head and you'll make a fine monk."

"Tom? You're back!" Druella exclaims and runs into her fiancé's arms.

"It's only been a few days, Love." Tom laughs as he holds her in his arms.

"What are you doing back?" His mother asks as she shoos away the Masters.

She knew that this was Tom, so there was no need to keep up the defense. She knew he would come as there was a blank spot in the future around this time.

"There's a problem in the Wizarding world." Tom informs her and receives a sagely nod in return.

"You found out, huh? That was quick. I was just about to message you." The Ancient One says.

"You know already?" Tom raises an eyebrow at his mother.

"Yeah, we know." Druella says as she looks up at him and explains about the attacks on the Sanctums around the world.

Seeing as their already after the same people, Tom filled them in on his suspension of a candidate for Minister being involved.

"Have you started investigating? Once we know where the headquarters of the Mindless One's in the wizarding world is, we can stage an assault and hopefully take them all out in one large-scale attack. Which would hopefully stop or at least slowdown Dormammus advance." The Ancient One asks, ready to take out the people that have been assaulting her Sanctums.

"I already have people on it. We just have to wait for the information."
