Both women had managed to finally force themselves out of the shower and get ready. Although Bo had been putting on a show for the blonde, Tamsin managed to stay relatively focused and had all her weapons laid out on the bed. They had yet to be interrupted which was a good sign that Odin was sticking to his usual routine.

Fortunately nothing had changed in the time Tamsin had been away from Asgard. So when it came time to explain her plan to Bo she could actually tell her where to be. Expecting that Bo was more of a visual person Tamsin had already constructed a quick sketch of the living quarters leading into the room where Odin was meant to be. The valkyrie had decided it was best to use their mental connection to explain the plan to her, whilst Bo had been getting ready she had already used her existing link with the other valkyries to rally up some support for the pair. Granted it was hard, Odin was a very powerful god and getting on his bad side was not an advisable thing to do, especially for a valkyrie. Fortunately her persuasion skills were still top notch and by the time Bo had joined her Tamsin had secured around 20 of the finest valkyries she could find. Two of whom happened to be Odin's personal guard.

'So here's the plan.' Tamsin began by pointing out the route they would take to find Odin and that she had two valkyries waiting to let them in.

'I have 20 of the other valkyries in on this but that's all I could find. I'm counting on you Bo. If this goes wrong that's it for me. I'm already at the end of my life cycle and if he can he's gonna make sure I don't get another one.' The older woman hadn't intended to express so much but she felt like she had to. If this was it she wanted to go out having said everything she wanted to and telling Bo everything. Well not everything.

'Okay that all sounds great but what are we actually gonna do when we get in there?'

'That, is where you come in. You have to use the amulet.'

'Care to expand on that TamTam or am I gonna have to get it out of you'

'Bo seriously. I don't know how to use this thing, Dyson and the rest of the sunshine gang were supposed to help with that but I haven't exactly been in touch with them recently. I only have the prophecy. But I have no idea who the other person is who is meant to help you so you're on your own until you find them.'

'I'm not on my own.' Tamsin had already began gearing up and was oblivious to the brunette's comment. Odin would be in his full meditative state in less than an hour so they had to be fast.

'What?' Tamsin was obviously distracted.

'You said I was alone. I'm not. I have you.'

'I guess you do.' The words rang in Tamsin's mind. If she only knew how much she had me. Jesus I am wrapped around her little finger. Damn it.

Using the hidden door Tamsin had used to get into the room, both women crawled out and crouched behind a tapestry awaiting the signal from one of the other valkyries that said it was safe to move. A faint whistling noise echoed through the hallway and Tamsin stood reacting quickly to the noise. It took Bo a few seconds longer but soon she was at the valkyrie's side waiting for he woman in front to move. Bo wasn't used to being told what to do, she had never taken kindly to orders or labels, anything that limited her own freedom. But she had to admit the blonde was doing a much better job of navigating this place than she ever could, so she chose to hang back and allow the valkyrie to lead.

The duo came to a large oak door full of intricate carvings. They seemed to be ancient because Bo couldn't understand any of them. She recognised some faint swirls as possible diagrams but apart from that she couldn't read anything. Suddenly her chest began to burn in the place where the amulet was currently resting. Bo's eyes flashed blue and she had to close her eyes a second to calm down. What was that? Slightly panicked Bo looked up to find the valkyrie who hadn't moved. There was something different now though. The carvings on the door had changed, well not changed but she understood them.

'Tamsin I don't think we should go in their uninvited.'

'What? Why not?' The blonde was clearly full of adrenaline and couldn't believe that Bo was second guessing her.

'There's a warning on the door.' Tamsin looked at the door to see the same indistinguishable carvings she had saw a second ago.

'Wait, you can read that?'

'Yeah, I think it's the amulet. That doesn't really matter though, there are loads of words and stuff that are useless but there are huge letters in the middle that have some sort of riddle on them.'

So that's why it always took him a while to get into the room. Tamsin mused.

'Well go on, what does it say.'

'Well it basically says that the only people who can get In that room are gods and whoever the gods want to bring with them.'

'Yes and your problem is?' Tamsin was cursing at Bo's stupidity. She should have known she wouldn't connect the dots.

'Do you see a god anywhere?'

'I'm looking at one.'

'What?'

'Bo, have you forgot who your father is, the guy we are trying to hurt right now. He's a god, which makes you, the daughter of a god, a demi-god. You are the first ever Fae demi-god so if you can't get past this door, no one can.'

'Well I suppose if something happens you're here to heal me right?' Even when she was about to do one of the most dangerous things in her life she couldn't help but toy with the valkyrie. 'Yes. Yes I am.'

Bo braced herself. She was trying to steady her breathing, because although she wouldn't admit it, she was terrified. Over their dinners Odin had shown Bo small portions of his power, completing random tasks he had set himself. She knew he wasn't even trying but never the less he showed great power and practised skill which scared her immensely.

The brunette began to walk forward, the amulet around her neck was pulsing slowly, in tune with the beat of he heart. As she stepped forward the doors began to move backwards, allowing her passage. She was about to enter the door when she felt a commotion behind her. The other valkyrie's had arrived and were awestruck. They had never seen anyone apart from Odin himself enter that room. The brunette saw Tamsin walk towards her, the strain of taking those few steps was evident on the valkyrie's face. It was as though the room was rejecting her presence.

A sudden pulse rushed through Bo and she knew what she had to do. She had to command the doors to allow Tamsin passage, as though they were living creatures. Bo began to speak, only it wasn't her voice that erupted from her petite frame. "I demand you allow this valkyrie, and all who follow her, passage." The extremely low voice boomed through the hallways. She saw the strain on Tamsin's face turn to shock as she took in what had just happened. The sight was amazing, if not slightly disturbing to the valkyrie. She knew that power could drive people to do things they would never normally do, she had seen it multiple times through all the wars she had been apart of and prayed silently the same would not happen to Bo.

Odin hadn't stirred. He was completely entrance by something that the women could not yet see. A sudden apprehension seemed to exude from all the valkyrie's around them. What Bo and Tamsin were attempting was the height of danger, it had never been done before and depending on how it goes will never be done again. Bo inched forward slowly, she had returned back to her normal brown eyed self after she was finished instructing the doors and was extremely thankful. She had lost control before but somehow she seemed to be able to control whatever this power was. It was as if she had discovered a part of herself that she didn't know existed and it was an exhilarating feeling. The adrenaline was pumping through the succubus' veins as she edged closer to her father, everyone was following her actions at a safer distance behind her, following her lead. Slowly the room opened up in front of Bo and Tamsin who both gasped in shock when they saw exactly what Odin was transfixed by. Odin had placed himself facing towards a giant portal to the human world. This is how he's been getting out! The penny suddenly dropped for Tamsin. Bo had not been so quick to figure out what it was but didn't care because of the view on the other end of the portal. It was the Dal. Dyson, Hale, Kenzi and Bruce were huddled into the corner completely surrounded by some type of under-fae looking creatures that consisted of skeletons and black smoke.

'What the fuck are they?' Bo had chosen to preserve whatever element of surprise the group had by using her mental link with Tamsin.

'They are his minions. Warriors who's spirits we have brought to Valhalla. We don't bring their bodies so they just get left behind, but he can reanimate them and use them outside of this realm. It's the only way he can have an effect because he is trapped her. Well that's what everyone thought.' Tamsin knew it wasn't the time to be longwinded but she had to make sure Bo knew as much as possible before she tried anything, or at least formulated some sort of plan. The brunette still hadn't shown any signs of knowing how to use the amulet.

On the other side of the portal, Dyson was snarling. His inner wolf was beginning to appear. Bruce was in a fighting stance, which would render any normal human or even fae speechless considering his sheer size.

"What do you want?" Dyson growled at the figure, who's vision Odin was currently using. The portal seemed to allow him to inhabit or posses the body of another, allowing him to leave his realm without actually leaving.

"You're lucky I don't have all my powers right now or i'd make you pay for that wolf."

"There's you're first mistake, never admit weakness in battle."

"We both know i'm not the weak one here." A set of arms rose up from the sides of the portal and signalled to the small army surrounding the tiny pack of four.

"Dude, why are you even here? You got BoBo already. Go have fun, bond or something." It didn't take Kenzi long to pipe up, but she could feel Hale behind her clutching her arm begging, the young girl to stop.

"Oh it's the pet. Well I suppose I can indulge you considering you'll be dead soon anyway. You're correct I do have Bo. But at the same time I will never truly have her until all her allegiances and loyalties are gone. I need her broken so I can use her for my purposes. You see, i'd never tell her but she is extremely powerful, perhaps on par with me. But I have yet to test her abilities. So that's where all of you come in, you are her weakness. If I get rid of you, I break her."

Before another word was uttered a thick cloud of smoke erupted around them, they began to cough hysterically. This was all Bo needed to lose control. Everything suddenly started to move in slow motion. She could feel power rising from deep inside her, battling to break free. Suddenly time stopped. All time, except for Bo's. She seemed to suspended in time, able to move and observe but not able to interact with anyone. Two blue spirits appeared in front of her. She was immediately worried and took a step back, silently portraying her concern at the sudden arrival of the two beings.

"Do not be afraid child, we will not harm you." Bo finally realised who she was looking at, or what. One of the spirits was the one who told Tamsin the prophecy. She could only assume the other evidently more feminine spirit was who the amulet originally belonged to. It was as if they could hear her thoughts because before she could say anything the two spirits spoke again.

"I am Freyja, this is my loyal companion and protector Óðr."

"I'm Bo."

"We know child." The more masculine voice stated. "We have been watching you for some time, waiting for this moment. You know the prophecy and you know you are the unaligned. Am I correct?"

"Yes." Bo gulped.

"Good. We know you are ready to use the power of the amulet. Your heart is strong and your intentions are noble. Unfortunately there is one hurdle before you can do what has been foreseen. You much choose someone to help you, for no great battle is won alone."

"Are you talking about the 'one' mentioned in the prophecy?" Both spirits nodded. "I don't know. I have been thinking about it ever since Tamsin told me." She glanced back at the elder valkyrie and smiled at the concern etched on her face. She was clearly worried about the succubus and that warmed Bo.

"You don't decide Bo."

"I don't? Wait... So who does? Do-"

"Be still Bo. The mind is a curious thing. It makes decisions based on fact and personal beliefs. However for a decision such as this, the mind is to weak a tool. There is only one thing that can make this decision for you Bo. Your heart."

"My heart?"

"Yes. Be warned Bo you're heart will choose immediately after you return to your reality. This person has been destined for you since the dawn of time and once it is done it cannot be undone. A bond will form when you leave here and the bond is sacred. The last time it happened was with us." Freyja gestured to the man beside her and smiled warmly.

"You will be together for the rest of time, each burdened to know and understand everything about the other. We can not tell you anything more about the bond as it effects each couple differently, but we can give you one warning. The bonded are one, when one lives the other does also. When one dies, the other does also. Good luck Bo, we know your heart will choose favourably."

Bo's heart began to race as she was sent back into her own reality. A blue glow erupted from the amulet engulfing the succubus into a column of light. A single strand broke away from the column and moved slowly toward Bo's chest, stopping at the spot on her chest Tamsin had touched in the bath tub so long ago. Freyja's face appeared in the column and she smiled.

"You're heart has chosen Bo. For your sake, and hers be strong, be kind, be you."
