Amora hadn't thought that it would be so easy to get this woman so easily invested in plan to take the Asgardian throne. Honestly, she had assumed it would take a bit more goading and convincing. Nor had she expected to leave for that realm so quickly. When the redheaded woman grabbed Amora, the sorceress started to protest, thinking one of the Ultron patrols had found them, but then she felt that familiar tug of magic and the next thing she knew, she was standing back on Asgard.
Even though it hadn't been that long, Amora felt like she could cry, but instead, the sensation of her magic flooding back into her brought a smile to her lips. An instant later, she freshened herself up, using a simple spell to give her new clothing and scrub whatever filth she had accumulated on her body. It felt good to be home. "Thank you for the free trip back, my dear. Had I known you would be so willing to bring me here, I would have..." She stopped talking as soon as she saw her friend's attention was elsewhere. In fact, she was almost dumbfounded by what she was looking at.
"The All-father's home? Surely you don't think you can storm it and succeed with just the two of us. Should we not wait and plan things? Perhaps get more allies or at least come up with a distraction for the guards?" Almost immediately after speaking, Amora regretted her words, practically imagining those axes at her throat once more. "Tell me what to do, my lady, and I shall follow your orders to the letter."

Angela was so focused on the palace that she had missed what Amora had said it wasn’t important what was important inside that building the man responsible for the way she had turned out. He might not have raised her like he had hoped he would but it was still his doing in how she turned out in the end and now that she was here everything will finally come into light. These people will learn the truth of Odin’s failure as a king. They might be blood but that was it there was no love for him and there never will be.
She looked at Amora out of the corner of her eye once the woman realized what she was up to. Her eyes glowed as her anger rose “Nothing of nothing.” she said before she took off into the air heading for the palace about half way there she increased her speed so much she created a sonic boom seconds later there was another boom when she slammed into the gate with such force it knocked the massive doors off their hinges sending them flying into whoever or whatever was in the way. That did little to slow her down as she smashed through walls and whatever else happened to be in her way she made her way to the throne room.
Once there she took out the guards but not kill them before she got a hold of Odin using her ribbons as he tried to escape. Grabbing a hold of him she took him outside before dropping him in the middle of the crowd but still tied up with her ribbons. “The sins of the past will finally come into the light All-Father!” She said to Odin who didn’t seem to understand what she was talking about. “The tenth realm has returned and with it your failures as a king!” she said only for the crowd to start talking about how crazy this woman was because they all knew there was nine realms. She ignored them “Tell them the truth!” but Odin wouldn’t speak of it.
“Fine! I’ll tell them. Eons ago there were ten realms the tenth was Heaven it was home the Angels. They loved Midgard and it’s people and enjoyed spending time there. Until one day Odin sought out the Queen of Angels to hire her and her people to do a job he couldn’t bring his cowardly self to do. He wanted the Angels to kill his own people who enjoyed going to Midgard as well but instead of helping the people there they killed the young race for sport. The queen agreed to do this job. So for every Asgardian that killed a Midgardian the Angels appeared a murdered the godlings.” By now everyone had stopped talking among themselves too busy listening to the story.
“Time went on the Asgardians came to Midgard less and less that was when the queen of Angels decide the job was done and it was time to be paid. When she told Odin this he had decided honor was good enough to be paid with instead of coin. In response to this the queen declared war.” Odin watched the redhead wondering how she could know all of this she wasn’t an angel they all had wings and this woman didn’t. Angela noticed this and crouched down in front of the bound king “In the middle of the war the queens assassins claimed Odin’s first born daughter the queen took her with the plan on ending it stabbed the baby in the heart and took her body so they couldn’t be with her in death. Odin used his powers to rip Heaven from the other nine realms and Yggdrasil locking it away from the rest of the universe then made everyone forget about it.” she explained.

She wasn’t listening to a word she was saying. Of course, that just proved to Amora that this woman was, indeed, related to Thor. But the look she gave to Amora, as her eyes glowed, chilled the goddess. This woman was an avenging spirit, far more dangerous than any thunder god. Within a instant she was gone, a resounding crash giving the only indication of where she had flown. Amora followed, though at a slower, more hesitant speed. Not that she doubted the angel woman’s ability to discern friend from foe, but she was still rather attached to the idea of living. Following in her wake, there wasn’t much to do in terms of defending the rear. Yes, a few guards who were stationed nearby came running, but they were easily waylaid and repulsed by Amora’s magic. She made sure to detain them rather than kill, though there were a few that just seemed eager to journey onto Vahalla.
It didn’t last long, a few minutes at the most, for there was a second, resounding crash and Amora sensed the woman leave with Odin in tow. She also sensed he was still alive. That confused the sorceress a great deal. Why not just kill the man and take his throne? Perhaps she desired something from him. A confession, perhaps. Again, Amora followed, intent on seeing the mission through to its end. She found the pair surrounded by a mob of people, with Odin bound in ribbons and the redhead spouting the truth to the crowd. Amora tried to read the changing emotions amongst the gathered people as it shifted from shock to disbelief to anger and outrage. She was a compelling speaker and even the sorceress found herself being swayed once more by her words, feeling her pulse pound as her own anger and indignation about being lied to grew and grew. But she also looked out into the crowd, watching for anyone foolish enough to contradict the angel or, worse yet, try and free the All-Father. So far, she saw no signs of Thor, Baldr, or Sif and the Warriors Three. That was a good thing, for it was one matter for Odin to be accused of treachery, as he had a past of doing such things, but if they were crazy enough to fight and defeat Thor and his friends, the crowd would likely turn, denying them an easy rule of Asgard.

“How do you know all of this?” Odin finally spoke up still unable to understand how anyone could have known what had happened during that time when the only who’s who should know was himself and Freyja. Angela moved her face very close to Odin “The child never died she survived.” she told him his eyes widen when he realized who she was “Aldrif!?!” When that word left his lips the ribbons lifted him up and slammed him into the ground hard as she pulled back away from him. With an angry look on her face, Freyja moved towards her daughter trying to get her to stop “Stop this Aldrif! He’s your father.” she said as she grabbed her daughter by the arm only to get shoved away. “No he’s not! A real father would have stopped at nothing to get his daughter back alive or dead! But you didn’t you covered it up and left me to be punished with the Angels!”
The ribbons slammed Odin into a bolder it cracked and split open from the force “Thanks to my brothers.” She spat “I was freed along with Heaven and now I’m here to claim my birthright. And to punish you for your sins FATHER!” with that she drew her sword and beheaded Odin the ribbon released his body letting it fall to the ground as the Odinforce had been claimed by Aldrif. “Aldrif Odinsdottir claims the throne of Asgard and everything that comes with it! From this day forward there will be no more cover ups, no more lies, no more sins hidden away from everyone. Unlike Odin I will not cower nor will I hid but know this anyone who challenges me for the throne or tries to steal it from me better be ready to fight to the death because only one of us will be walking away alive.” with that she turned and walked off heading for the palace.

Both the crowd and Amora stood stunned as they watched the woman... Aldrif... take her pound of flesh and pint of blood from Odin. Only when Freyja was shoved back did the sorceress actually remember to act. She reached out and grabbed her aunt, pulling her away from the ensuing carnage. "Let her do this, Freyja. Would you rather she declare war on us all? She will destroy Asgard if she can not have this closure. She will not take you in his place. It is for the best." Did Amora believe what she just spoke? Not entirely. Her insides twisted into knots as she watched the All-Father be executed and she couldn't help but worry and wonder how many more heads would tumble as well.
She held Freyja close as she cried and wailed over her husband's death, but eventually passed the woman onto someone else. Her mind was in a flurry of activity. No more sins hidden away, no more cover ups or lies? Would that mean she could no longer be the blonde beauty that men died for? Would Aldrif want her to show the truth that had been hidden away for so long? They would surely kill her. They would think she was behind all this.
Worried, Amora teleported herself to Aldrif's side, trying to keep pace with the woman and figure out what to do next. "My lady, you are successful. You have gained the throne, revealed the truth, and avenged the wrongs set against you. I.... what more is there to do? How may I assist you... Aldrif All-Mother? I still remain your humble servant."

Aldrif stopped in her tracks when she saw a red light coming towards her but not like an attack by a weapon because of the way it moved in and out around and over things as if it was alive. When it got closer she realized it wasn’t just a red light but a ring a red one at that. Not only was this ring acting like it was alive and coming towards her she could have sworn she could hear it talking. When it got close enough she batted it away whatever it was she didn’t want it but that wasn’t good enough because the ring came back. And again she smacked it away from her only for it to come back once more. Annoyed Aldrif waited until it was close and clapped her hands together crushing the ring as she did a red light was released. Instead of leaving it there she took the bits of ring with her wanting to know more about it but not right now she had other things to deal with.
Aldrif put the bits away before looking over at Amora who had appeared at her side. “This place needs to be prepared temporary homes made. I plan on opening gateways to Midgard and invite the Midgardians those that are left alive to come and live here.” she said as she made her way down to Odin’s Trophy Room after gaining the Odinforce she learned of this room and what was in it. Only one thing at this point was all she needed from there and that was the Destroyer and the copies of it “The gateways will be guarded by them Ultron can’t control them nor can he destroy them and they’ll keep him out of Asgard.” All she would have to do is program them to kill anything that wasn't human and have them set down around each gateway. But the Midgardians would have to get there on their own.

When Amora appeared beside Aldrif, she had seen the moving light flying around her before it was crushed seconds later. Knowing better than to ask, the sorceress quickly stole a glance at the object. It looked to be a ring. Nothing particularly spectacular about that, though stories abounded about magical rings and she even seemed to recall learning about rings of power, though they were green, not red, and the symbol had been different. Perhaps later she could study the red ring more closely.
"Midgard? Here? My lady, surely there will be protests. While most Asgardians think mortals are quaint and are willing to look over the occasional short lived affair, like what your half-brother Thor has had, they are as I have said... mortal. They do not belong. There would be protests, disdain, outright hatred in some, and likely a few deaths. The people of Midgard are fragile and weak. We all know that they break so easily." She did not say these things in order to show her hatred, but rather to give the new ruler advice on such things. But then again, what ruler ever heeded such advice? The housing would be made, Amora would have someone take care of it.
She had never set foot inside Odin trophy room before and it was glorious. So many items of power filled with magic, it was almost intoxicating. A few items were from both Jotunheim and Vanaheim, causing her skin to flush blue and glow as the powers called to her. Swallowing hard, she thought it best to remain at the entrance of the room rather than risk venturing far into. "That is a wonderful idea, All-Mother, but, I would suggest you specify the term 'human' as there are mutants and super-powered individuals that do not consider themselves to be, by definition or genetics, to be human. We don't not want to kill our guests as we save them."

“I don’t think we’ll have to worry about that.” Aldrif told her most people are probably afraid of her after they saw what she had did to her own father. But that wasn’t something she was going to make a habit of doing she didn’t want her people to live in fear of her. “And if they do have a problem then they can come to me about it and it’ll be dealt with. If they do kill any of the mortals they will be punished as anyone else would be for murder.” she said after a few minutes. “I doubt Thor would be happy to know his mortals are being killed by his people. Those fragile and weak mortals have put a stop to you and Loki time and time again have they not?” She stated.
“I know I’ll make sure the Destroyers are programed properly.” With that she woke them up using her powers and reprogrammed them they woke up and began marching out of the room “Things are changing Amora and not just here.” she said as she stopped next to her watching the suits march out when the last one left she looked to Amora “Prove yourself and you will be rewarded very well. Cousin.” she told her before walking off heading back up following the suits that were waiting outside for her and their next orders.

Amora listened to her words very carefully. "I think you are right. They will behave around the Midgardians. And if they do not, a few... examples may be made to show how serious your intentions are. As for Thor, he only cares about his Jane Foster. Yes, others are a concern for him, but Jane he will not stand being harmed." At the last statement, Amora blanched slightly. "Yes, some of the stronger ones have defeated me in the past, but know that I have never intended to outright kill them in retaliation. I will not start anything against them if they are guests here, and whatever old blood I have has been washed away, but I can not say they will honor such things." The last thing she would want was to face punishment. Unlike Odin, Aldrif wouldn't likely exile her.
She quietly stepped to the side, watching the animated pieces of armor march past, off to their programmed duties. "I will serve you well and act as advisor, promising to enact whatever changes you intend to have done." She smiled at the promise of rewards, and also at the idea that she finally had a family member who recognized her. "As you wish, All-Mother."

“Really? He only cares about a small woman? Then why does he protect all of Midgard then? With these Avengers he babbled on about when we first met.” Seemed kind of odd that Thor would do all of that just for some mortal woman who’s most likely dead along with mostly everyone else. “It’s most likely this Jane Foster is already dead. Ultron’s attack was fast. Most of the world was already destroyed by the time anyone realized what was going on.” she told her remembering over hearing people reporting about what was going on around the world.
“I’m aware. But they will also know conflict for past doings won't tolerated now. We’re starting anew once their on Asgard.” she told her as they reached the throne room. At the throne sat the items once owned by Odin but now belonged to Aldrif someone had left them there for her but no one was in sight. Walking over she picked up Gungnir and took it with her she was going to need it later with what she had planned on doing once everyone was on Asgard.
“Good then let’s get things started shall we?” she said as she walked over to the balcony and channeled her powers into Gungnir before pointing it to an empty area where a number of portals opened and the Destroyers split up and made their way through the portals. When the last one had disappeared she used her great powers again this time to make an announcement. “People of Midgard I am Aldrif Odinsdottir the All-Mother of Asgard. I have opened many portals to different parts of Midgard they will bring you to Asgard where you’ll be allowed to live out the rest of your lives free of Ultron. This is a choice however you do not have to leave Midgard if you don’t want to. When you do reach a portal it will be guarded by a number of Destroyer armors they’re programmed to destroy any Ultron robots that get too close.” When she finished speaking her image changed to a map of the world showing the closest portal was to each person. Before it disappeared after some time had past.
