Daniel blinked as he looked at the chair and both Sam and Jack looked at Rachael. Teal'c raised his eyebrow as Rachael turned around and looked at the chair. She slowly walked up to it and picked up the small piece of paper left on the seat. SG1 walked towards her and noticed strange writing on it, some English and some a strange language.

"Is that Asgard?" Daniel asked Rachael, who nodded. She turned and beckoned for SG1 to follow her.

"Odin has left the temple for the first time in many months. Apparently some youths came and were plotting on how to destroy the Temple. He has told me that he will meet us at the…"

Exactly where Odin would meet them was not told to SG1, as when Rachael stepped through the doorway out of the Temple, she fell to the ground unconscious. Jack raised his weapon at the man standing before them.

Location: Stargate Command, Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado Springs; Colorado.

Thor watched as General Hammond stared at the Stargate. He had arrived back at the SGC with Heimdall to discuss where to place Odin's caregiver.

"As she is Human, perhaps it is best that she remains with her own kind," Thor whispered to Heimdall in Asgard.

"I agree, but surely it is a risk. She knows much about the Asgard, Ancients, Nox, Furlings and Reetou. She could place the Tau'ri in danger." Heimdall whispered back.

"The Goa'uld will not dare to attack this world, not seeing as it is a protected planet," Thor said, "We will ask Rachel, if she wishes to remain here, then she shall."

Heimdall nodded, "Agreed."

George Hammond turned around to face the two Asgard. He knew they had been conversing in a different language, most likely their own, and had been whispering so as not to disturb his thoughts.

"Are you sure that no Goa'uld is looking for the child?" Hammond asked.

Heimdall nodded once, "We are sure. We are unaware that the Goa'uld know about Odin, so there is unlikely to be any Goa'uld or Jaffa chasing after them."

Hammond nodded, "good. SG1 needs an easy mission once in awhile."

Location: The Temple of Odin, Bifrost, Milky Way Galaxy.

Jack stared at the overweight man in front of him. A short, balding man, he reminded Jack a lot of Urgo, except the look on his face was not humor, but an evil scowl. He held a small weapon in his hand that looked suspiciously like a smaller version of a TER. He glared at the young woman now unconscious on the ground and then looked at SG1.

"Who are you?" he said menacingly in a deep voice, "How dare you walk upon the planet of the mighty Heimdall!"

Daniel stepped forward, "I'm Daniel Jackson and this is Colonel Jack O'Neill, Major Samantha Carter and Teal'c. We were sent by Heimdall to see how things were going and to meet the High Priestess of his Temple"

The man looked at the unconscious Rachel and snorted, "Why would anyone want to meet a worthless girl like her? I am Amonan, the High Priest of the Temple of Heimdall. It is me that you wish to see, not a simple caretaker of a temple of a weak god."

Little did Amonan know, an Asgard mothership had entered the atmosphere and an Asgard had beamed to the planet, hidden inside the Temple. Unfortunately, SG1 also did not know of the new comer, so what happened next was a shock.

Jack stepped towards the High Priest and looked him straight in the eye, "Look buddy, we were sent here by Heimdall and Thor to meet her," Jack pointed at Rachel, "We know she is your daughter so you especially can't get away with shooting her. Heimdall would kick your arse if he knew what was happening."

Daniel stepped forward, "and Thor would send his Thunder to the ground"

Jack nodded, "Yeah, Thor'll use his Thunder to strike that tree."

Jack pointed at a tree near a house. SG1 and the villagers looked on in shock as a dark storm cloud gathered in the sky and lightning struck the tree. Jack stared at his pointer finger as the villagers bowed. The High priest kneeled and looked at Jack..

"Oh Mighty Friend of the Gods, forgive my disrespect."

Jack looked at the man. "I will consider it. First we have business to attend to. I suggest you leave us."

The High priest rose and ushered his people away, into the Temple of Heimdall. The other members of SG1 stared at Jack, who shrugged. "I'm guessing Thor came to see that everything is ok. Come on, we have to get Rachel somewhere safe."

Teal'c gathered the small woman in his arms and carried her to her home, in the center of the village. As they reached the home, the saw a crowd of teenagers around it. Jack glanced at the others and the men backed away as Sam approached the teenage boys.

"Hey guys, what are you doing?" Sam asked the nearest boys.

One of the boys turned to her, "The High Priest has ordered us to find a certain crystal that the High Priestess has. Apparently it leads to a secret chamber in the forest that the gods visit."

"Oh really? Wouldn't she leave it in one of the Temples? That's where I would leave it. Most likely in the Temple of Heimdall."

The boy thought, and then nodded, "That's a good idea." He turned to his friends and they all walked away.

The other SG1 members came up and entered the house, Jack nodding at Sam "Good work Carter."

Teal'c placed Rachel on the bed as she began to wake up. She groaned and looked at SG1, "What happened?"

SG1 explained what had happened, but Rachel did not seem shocked to hear about the lightning. She was, however, shocked to hear about the teenagers. She rose, "come, we must leave."

Rachel walked carefully out of the house, SG1 following until Teal'c stopped. Jack turned and saw Teal'c staring at something. Rachel followed his gaze and saw smoke. Eyes widening, she gasped and ran around to the scene.

"NO!" she screamed, as SG1 rounded the corner, only to see the Temple of Odin burst into flames.
