Sif's POV
I barreled into Loralie. We stumbled to the left. I put a hand on the collar to make sure it's still there. I shook my sword and the other blade popped out. Loralie tilted her head. I lashed out at her. She managed to grab the end of the blade. I yanked at my sword and like last time it split in two. She was a quick learner. I swung wildly at her. She pared them easily.

"Still the same old Sif." She said swinging at me, "Following Odin's orders."

"Oh and your not the same old you. Following the Enchantress's orders." I smirked swinging my sword.

She pared it and returned the swing, "She offered me all I ever wanted."

"Is that so?" I swung a deadly over hand, "You know what she's like. She never follows through on her promises."

She let out a war cry and swung for my left side leaving her right undefended. I took the opportunity and slapped the flat end of my sword to it. She cried out in pain and fell to the floor. My sword clattered away from her. I rested the point of the sword on her throat.

"Do it. I can't go back there. It's torture." A tear slipped down her cheek, "Kill me. If I can't have what I want then I don't want anything."

My hand went to my belt. I found the collar. She went on trying to get me to kill her. I opened the collar and put it around her next. I still remembered the remark I made last time. The collar grew around her mouth.

"You were saying?" I asked pulled her off the ground.

I grabbed my sword. All the men woke up from there daze. May glanced at me. I nodded. She lowered her weapon. Percy was staring absently at the wall. I walked over to him and place a hand on his shoulder. He didn't take his eyes off the wall.

"Why didn't it work on me?" He asked.

I shook my head, "No man has ever withstood Loralie's voice and touch." I walked in front of him, he looked up at me, "I don't exactly why you could but I have a theory."

His eyes brightened, "What?"

"Annabeth. Your love for her is so strong not even Loralie could break your bond." I stated.

He smiled, "Cool I have to tell Annabeth." He ran down the stairs.

May came and stood next to me, "Thank you for all your help."

I shook my head, "No thank you."

She raised her eyebrows, "Excuse me?"

"Thank you for standing by my side during battle, being my friend." I smiled.

She held out her hand, "Your a strong women."

"And I'm proud to say the same for you and your apprentice." I returned the praise.

May glanced back at Skye, "She still needs some training."

I nodded, "Nobody's to old for training."

We walked back over to Loralie, "Well we shall be going."

"Come again soon." She gestured to Loralie, "Perhaps without her."

I nodded, "I shall."

Skye walked up, "Hope we'll be seeing you soon."

I nodded, "Tell Coulson my farewell."

Skye nodded, "Tell Thor that we said hello."

I nodded, "Well good seeing you again."

I opened a portal to Asgard. I stepped through. I appeared in the throne room. Odin looked up in surprise. He smiled as he saw Loralie.

"Sif." He said bowing his head.

I went down on my knee, "My lord, I have did as you asked."

He nodded, "You may rise." I did, "Guard take Loralie to her new cell."

A guard scurried out and took her away, "Good work Sif."

"Thank you sir."

"You may go. I will think about what you will get for award." He said.

I smiled, "Actually sir could my award be going back to Asgard?"

He straightened in his chair, "For how long?"

"Just until my mortal friends defeat Enchantress." I replied.

He eyes me carefully, "Okay." I started to thank him but he held up his hand, "I would like you to take my son, Thor with you."

My heart dropped to my toes, he can't find out what happened to Coulson yet, "Why. . .sir?" I added quickly.

"He knows Midgard better than you do and he can be useful." He said.

I tried hard not to be harsh, "But my lord, I work better without Thor."

He nodded, "He will prove himself useful."

Thor can not know Coulson's alive, "Sir, Thor is needed here to prepare the people for battle."

He shook his head, "We already have someone on that."

"Sir. . ." I couldn't find an argument.

"Why don't you want him to come?" He asked stroking his beard.

Should I tell him? Would he get mad? Uh, this secrecy is getting to complicated. A guard ran into the room. Odin removed his eyes from me and turn to him. I turned to look also. The guard caught his breath and straightened up.

"Sir, the commander was taken sick." He stated.

"What do you mean taken sick? How?" I asked.

He shook his head, "He's running a fever. It's real bad sir I think he may have been poisoned."

Odin stroked his beard thoughtfully, "Okay. . . who poisoned him?"

The guard shrugged, "We believe its one of the cooks but it could be anyone."

"Interrogate the cooks find out who's responsible. Meanwhile send Thor to be the commander."

The guard bowed and took off out the door. I turned back to Odin. He raised his eyebrows.

"Well Sif, you won't have to go with Thor after all." He said slowly.

I refused to smiled, "Yes sir."

"Have a fun time at Midgard." He opened a portal for me.

I bowed, "Thank you my lord." I walked towards the portal.

"Oh and Sif," Odin stopped me, "Don't do something stupid and get yourself killed."

I almost said, "I'm not the one you should be worried about." But I stopped myself and just bowed again. I walked through the portal thinking about the shield plane.

(A;N) Hey thank you all for the support. Be prepared for a battle (big or small) in the next few chapters. Hope you enjoy!
