Okay so disclaimer time, I do not own Marvel, Smallville or anything to do with them.
Act 2, Part 6:
Location: Sif's room on the bus (the cell/interrogation room).
Sif and Kal have been discussing how to handle Lorelai; they have also been telling stories from their pasts and Kal told her of the circumstances leading to his being here; including that of Naman.
"From what you have told me Kal, you did all you could to stop this Doomsday. You believed in your fellow Kryptonian, you tried to save him but he threw it away and from what you have said about this son of Olsen then he would have been welcomed into the halls of Valhalla. He died a noble death, a hero's death; that you do not mourn that you celebrate."
"You have given much to think upon Sif; you're culture, your life is different from any I have known yet your values of life are the same. I know Jimmy's sacrifice was not in vain as Chloe lives; I mourn the fact that they had only just begun to live their lives together, for so long all I wanted was what they have; to be with someone, to love without fear. I cannot have that, for few are my equal and I do not mean station or power they hold, I mean that they can be hurt; despite my control humans are fragile and I could easily hurt them."
"I think I understand Kal, you value everyone and you see all both men and women as equal; but you fear the harm you could do in how shall I say the heat of the moment?" Sif carried on honing her sword.
"Yes." Said Kal as heat slowly creeps up his face "But it's not just that I could live forever and it is not fair to me or the one I could love that it will last but the blink of an eye."
"You are immortal?" asked Sif, "you would be welcomed by Asgard and you would not fail to find a mate there." as she stared into his eyes, they both leaned forward as their heads began to meet.
And at that awkward point, May walks in to check on them and they fly apart.
Noticing the tension in the air, May shifted the focus and ask Sif if she could inspect her sword.
"You have experience with swords?" asked Kal as Sif watched May move the blade through a series of turns.
"Yes, but I prefer to use my hands."
"Admirable, but be warned Lorelai is quite skilled in combat." said Sif.
"So why does she co-opt men to fight for her?" asked May.
"she gets a thrill out of it, to take a man that is not hers and to command them to kill the one they love."
"Ward, the man she took he is as lethal as any." Understanding dawned on Sif as she took the meaning between Melinda's words.
"Be warned Melinda May, that your companion Ward is now her thrall. He will fight for her alone, you must not hold back." Kal too could see the reason behind the question and changing to subject he said.
"I have never had need of a weapon; a fight with me has never been on equal terms and a blade can never pierce my skin."
"Never?" asked Sif, the challenge clear in her voice and with that Kal took the blade from May and sliced it down his palm, but to his shock he drew blood.
"I thought you said never?" asked May as Sif took the sword, but she watched on as an ethereal light emanated from Kal's skin as the cut healed over.
"Sif, is that sword forged with magic?"
"You call it magic, but in Asgard both science and magic are one."
"I am weak to magic, it is the only thing that can hurt me." Despite his trust of them he did not need to reveal his other weakness.
"You trust us with this?" asked Sif
"Yes, but I do not think you would betray me." Kal said as he looked into Sif's eyes.
"No, I would not and neither will Melinda May." Sif stared at May challenging her to disagree.
"Unless you pose a threat of try to harm my team then I will keep this to myself for now." And with that May left the room.
Sif walked up to Kal and took his hand in both of hers as she marvelled at the now healed skin, and taking a piece of cloth from the bed she wiped his hand clean "You have great powers Kal and I swear that I will not tell others of how to hurt you." Kal simply smiled.
She was surprised at how she was falling under his charm, for long she has loved Thor but after talking with her queen she know Thor does not hold her in the same regard, so why should see not move on and seek a true companion. She does not know what lies in store for her in the future but she would not mind getting to know Kal more.
Kal was enjoying the touch of Sif's hands on his; he looked at this woman, this goddess before him and wondered what she was thinking about. He had given up on love in his world, Lana and Lois two women he had great feelings for but both would never truly understand him ,they could never live as long so how could he truly commit them to a life where he would never age whilst they die. But even though he had known Sif but a day, he could feel a bond to her and if he could not return home he could see where this may go.
Coulson knocked on the door and came in, "We've found her. Camera's caught sight of them and if it's wealth and men she wants then she has hit the jackpot."
