A/N: CREDIT GOES TO WHERE CREDIT IS DUE. I OWN NOTHING!

It was late one November night when Sigyn sat in an old beat up armchair with her four year old daughter, Tasha, sitting on her lap. Tasha kept falling in and out of sleep while playing with Sigyn's hair. Sigyn glanced from the T.V. to the clock

'12:45, Clint should have been home hours ago' she thought. Tasha had just fallen asleep when the back door creaked opened and Clint stepped in.

"DADDY!" Tasha smiled, slipping off her mother's lap and ran as fast her short legs would carry her. Clint smiled scooping up the curly haired child.

"Shouldn't you be in bed?" he asked.

"Mama said I could stay up to see you!" Tasha replied nuzzleing into her father's neck.

"And you've seen him, now off to bed." Sigyn chimmed in with her slight British accent.

"But-"

"Tasha listen to Mama," Clint ordered "I'll be home for the next couple of days so we'll have loads of time to play." He said kissing Tasha's forehead as he carried her into her room. That's one of the upsides to Clint's job, be gone for a week and get to stay home two. The downside, however, was was never knowing if Clint would come home. True, he is a master assassin but everybody has a weakness.

SIgyn watched as Clint Carried Tasha off to bed and turned to head off to her own room. When Sigyn was a few steps from their bedroom, she collapsed with a small thud. When she opened her eyes, Sigyn found herself in her old bedchambers,the ones she had once shared with Loki. Had loki taken her or was she just seeing things? Sigyn lifted the heavy covers to find that she was still dressed in her mortal garb and that her wedding ring to Clint was still in place. But, something was still very odd about this place, it felt like a dream but at the same time it felt to real.

"Ah, I see you have finally awakened, my love." Sigyn's heart dropped.

'That voice. Oh dear Gods no!' Sigyn thought turning in the direction in which the voice had come.

"LOKI! STAY AWAY FROM ME!" She screamed jumping off the bed suddenly feeling very exposed in her short-shorts and Clint's old Ramones shirt. Loki's eyes scanned over her bare legs in pure lust.

"Darling, do not be afraid, I intend you no harm! I merely wish to speak with you." Loki stated with an evil grin. Sigyn pulled the sheet from the bed and tried to cover her legs.

"Oh there will be none of that!" Loki said as he pulled the sheet from Sigyn's small frame...
