Logan and Black Panther had been on their way out to search for us when Thor and I entered my place. We had to answer questions as to where we had been but once that was out of the way we had dinner and watched TV, just like the night before.
Turning in I asked Thor if he would like to lie next to me in my bed, having enjoyed waking next to him earlier. He held me close to him as I lay with my back to him, his chin resting on my shoulder. His hair hanging across my neck and I couldn't help but twirl it around my finger. "Thor?" I asked softly. "Is something wrong Sonya?" He asked me. "What is Asgard like?" I asked him. "I could take you there if you wish." He offers. "No. I want to hear about it from you. Please tell me." I say. Thor began telling me everything about Asgard, all the places, people, and creatures that can be found there. I shut my eyes and let my mind paint a picture of Asgard as I listened to every detail. It sounded like a wonderful place and I did want to go. But when Thor would introduce me as the woman he loves to everyone there, then turn around later and deny it later could invite trouble for me.
The following morning I made Thor swear he wouldn't hurt anyone and that if he found Enchantress he would bring her to me before doing anything before letting him leave. After my brush with A.I.M the other day had left me a little troubled over going out to hunt her down. Besides Thor could cover more ground with out me. So I let him go out by himself while I watched the news for any reports that might have to do with Enchantress.
Five hours had pasted in seconds as I watched the news from my chair. Standing I heard my back crack in several places before I headed into the kitchen for something to munch on. Searching through the cupboard I couldn't help but let my mind drift to where Thor might have gone in his search and what time he might return. I had just reached for some chocolate cupcakes when I felt a pair of large hands grab me from behind and pull me against a large body. I was about to complain to Thor that he should be looking for Enchantress before the blade of an ax was held close to my neck. I held my breath in fear as the one holding me turned around. "How could he have fallen for a mortal like you?" Before me was Enchantress, glaring at me. "Enchantress? You're the one that cast the spell. You should know how this happened!" I snapped at her. She grabbed my chin and her eyes seemed to burn with rage. "The spell should've made Thor love me. It was targeted to make him want to be with me." She snapped. "Then why didn't it work? Why did Thor fall in love with me?" I asked her. "That is what I want to know. My spell shouldn't have failed me so. So why did it?" She asked while looking me over. "You are not in possession of magic. So why did the spell change?" Enchantress asked as she released my face. "Maybe you did the wrong spell. After all every hero there fell under the spell and fell in love with someone they saw. So maybe the spell you used caused the same thing to happen to Thor." I suggest. "No. I know my spells and I made sure I knew what one I was using before I lured them in. The only thing I didn't count on was you. So it has to be your fault the spell didn't work." She saids. "Then break the spell." I say. She laughed at me. "Do you really think me that simple? The moment I do that they will track me down and I won't get another chance. So I think I will just take you and see what about you made the spell I put on Thor love you instead of me." Enchantress then used her powers to take us away from there. My last thought in my home was, I hope Thor beat this woman until her bones are dust.
The chains chaffed, the dungeon was damp and drafty, and the smell in the room made my stomach turn with every breath I took. Enchantress had smiled as I was locked in the cell and told me not to try to get free because there was a spell on the chains that would cause them to tighten if I tried to remove them. My limited view out the small barred window showed me a mountain and some tree tops, yet some how I knew that I was in Asgard. The one place Thor wouldn't think to look for me. Pulling my knees to my chest I let out a sigh. "First A.I.M now this? What did I do to earn this kind of torture?" I asked myself.
I was studying the chains around my wrist, trying to guess what the small carving on them meant when I shifted my hand slight to scratch an itch and the chain slipped off. I raised a brow at the fallen chain before lifting the wrist that still had a chain around it to my eye level. Taking a breath I put my hand on the chain and slipped my hand out of it. Shocked that it didn't tighten like she had said it would. Dropping the chain to the ground I walked over to the door and pushed on it. "What the hell is wrong with them?" I asked myself when the door swung open with out any trouble. Stepping out of the cell I took a quick look around before dashing for the stairs. First Enchantress reviles that some how her spell failed because of me and then the spell on the chain failed to stop me from escaping. How could this have happened? I wondered before turning down a hall and finding Enchantress and her Executioner. They stare at me in shock as I turn and run the other way. "Stop her!" I heard Enchantress order Executioner as I saw a door slightly ajar.
I must've been over due for some luck because I have no idea how I managed to dodge Executioner long enough to get away. But that still left me with the problem of my being lost in Asgard. I had a list of people I could try to find to help me get back to Thor but I had no idea where to find them. So I just kept running, putting space between those two and me.
"Oh man. Who knew Asgard was so big?" I asked myself as I panted, leaning against a tree. I had been running for what felt like most of the day and only now did I feel it was safe for me to stop. I sunk down to the ground and shut my eyes, wishing Thor would appear and take me home already.
I jerked awake after my body had slid from the tree and my head had smacked against a rock. It was dark and the sky was filled with stars, telling me that I had not only fallen asleep but I had slept through the rest of the day. I stood and began walking in the direction I had been running in, only now I was on high alert since I couldn't see past most of the trees. "If there was ever a time when I could do with some luck it's now." I say to myself. From the corner of my eye I could see a small light in the distance that looked to be getting closer to me. "Who's there?" I called to it. The light, once close enough to see was no bigger then a quarter and appeared to be a faint golden color. I heard a small almost squeak like sound from it before the ball flew past me and head off. "Hey wait up!" I called to it before sprinting after it. The light seemed to want to help me for when ever I fell behind it would stop long enough for me to catch up to it before taking off again.
I hadn't expected to run into anything while chasing after the light but I did. And when I looked up at the thing I had hit it turned out to be a man in silver and blue armor. "Uh hi." I said as I slow got to my feet. "Who are you and what are you doing here? Wait, you're mortal." He asked. "My name is Sonya and I'm looking for someone who can help me get home. Who are you?" I answered. "I am Balder. Pray tell how did you come to be in Asgard?" He asked. "Enchantress brought me here. Wait a second, Balder? You're a friend of Thor's right?" I asked. "He and I go back many years. Why do you ask?" Balder asked. "Please you must help me get back to him. Thor is under the effects of a love spell, as are many of the other heroes back home. He'll likely to destroy the city looking for me." I explain. "A love spell? Who could have done this?" Balder asked. "Enchantress. She told me the spell was meant to make Thor love her but something went wrong and he ended up in love with me." I explained. "I see. Come then. I shall take you back to Midgard." I was relived to hear him say that, for by that point I just wanted to be back in Thor's arms in my bed.
Standing on the roof of my apartment I couldn't help but smile. "Thanks Balder. I'll be fine now." I tell him. "Is there some way I might be able to aid Thor?" Balder asked. "If you could get people in Asgard to track her down and capture her it'd be a great help. We need to get her to either break the spell or to tell us how to end it ourselves." I tell him. "I shall ensure all of Asgard is searched then." Balder said before disappearing. I quickly ran to the stairs, hoping that Thor is near my home.
