Lash walked back to the chair like nothing happened. All of a sudden Loki pushed through the crowd towards his children. I heard hiss of the serpent in the back. I didn't know if she was on our side or not but I would hate to find out. Lash looked at his father but Loki was looking at me.
"I thought you were going to protect him."
Lash stopped his father.
"There was nothing she could do. She was iced against the wall. I don't like my slaves interfering. Lash was already vanishing, this was going to happen sooner or latter."
He smiled and Loki did nothing. But all of a sudden I looked over and my chains were cut and my collar was slipping off. I started walking back towards the serpent. She hissed at me and I held my hands in surrender.
"I am not going to hurt you. I am going to help you."
She calmed down and I reached to her collar turning it off and taking it off. I stepped back and smiled.
"I know I can't do anything amazing but I say we get out of here."
I looked back to my father locking eyes and he simply nodded his head and I was running out of the back doors with the serpent sliding next to me. I didn't look back until we reached the outside. I slid to a stop as I came face to face with gaurds. The pointed the sword at me and I backed up a little.
"I am so sorry about this sir, please forgive me later on."
He looked at me confused as I opened the door letting the giant serpent upon him. Once he was on the ground I grabbed one of the collars from my belt and placed it around his neck. Then I ran from the side bridge to the far forest edge just as alarms started to go off to sign a run away royal. I am so sorry, Lash. I will fix this. I whipped away my tears and turned and started to follow the snake deeper into the forest.
"I think we should stop here for the night."
The snake stopped and looked at me like I was nuts. It hissed and started forward again. How no one could see the giant snake was beyond me. But yet again she was shrunk down to about the size of a school bus. But she still was beautiful. She once had the name of Jörmungandr but most commonly know as the Midgard Serpent now a days. I still want to know how Loki managed to have a child of a snake and wolf. I know most that tend to be animals are well normal but got stuck in a shift. Sorta like Lash being stuck in the evil. But still the snake was gorges. It's wings were tucked back glimmering with color. It's scales shined in the sun. Her's eyes glowed an ice blue but her mouth was lined with scary sharp teeth all made for ripping at flesh.

We traveled a bit longer and finally the serpent stopped at an abandoned hut. She wore an expression saying ha, aren't you happy we didn't stop. I walked up knocking, but when no one answered I slowly opened the door peering inside.
"Hello? Anyone home."
No answer came. I walked in seeing it was a small hut with a cot and small kitchen. A small bathroom and a green sofa. And a coffee table in front of that. I looked around seeing a small photo on the small table next to the basket. I picked it up seeing an old photo of my uncle Loki and Father as well as Uncle Balder standing with grandpa and grandma with a smaller version of the serpent and a boy that looked like lash now with black hair and charcoal eyes. He wore a smirk much like Loki's I opened the back of the frame taking out the photo. There was writing like I guessed, year 1950, Loki, Balder, Thor, Odin, Friggs, Jörmungandr, and Fenrir's rebel get away. I laughed to my self. Oh have things have changed. I mean I knew how my father and other godly relatives were old but I didn't know they would look the about the same. I remember my father saying that they were not immortal just aged a lot slower, but he never said anything about Fenrir being human at one point. I walked over sitting down on the cot making dust fly from the beding. I looked at my cousin seeing her curled up and a sleep. I wasn't tired but I was lost. I curled up in a ball and cryed. I don't know how long I cried before I passed out but my eyelids slowly drooped and I was out like a fly.
      I woke seeing my cousin still a sleep. I stretched and went to raid the kitchen. I walked in stopping in  my tracks.
"Heimdall?"
He nodded. I pulled down the collar of his shirt showing he didn't  have a dog collar.
"We need to get you out of here. There is a safe house up in the mountains but Helena has her army of the dead searching no the forest. It will be a matter of time before they find you."
"How did you find me."
"Loki."
I nod and purse my lips.
"Then you know about my cousin."
He nods.
"And I need to keep my word so please wake your serpent friend so we can go."
I roll my eyes but still pivot on my heal and go back to the coil nesting in the corner. I carefully approach the sleeping aero ant before running my hand along it's scales. It stirred right away and about bit me if it wasn't for grabbing it's mouth and forcing the snake to look at me. I let go and she hissed at me before looking around to see Heimdall and also hissing at him. Then it gave me a look of why the hell did you wake me up?
"We need to go, there is a safe house with others. Army has been sent to get us."
She tilted her head to the side before rolling her eyes and nods to the door. I go over opening it and she just slithered right on out. I looked at the guard which simply shrugged and walked after the snake. I let out a sigh before walking out, grabbing the nearby sword by the door and shutting the opening.
      It seemed like forever. Walking through the forest you would think to be nice but not with having to jump tree to tree to stay hidden from nasty dead creatures.
"Are we almost there?"
I asked this for like the millionth time. Both the snake and the guard of the bridge glared at me before hissing at me.
"Hey no fare. You two are double teaming!"
They both glared at me again before hissing again. I shrugged. I was board and I don't take being board well.
"Ok well I am done with this shit."
I stepped out of the tree line before Heimdall could stop me. I cupped my hands around my mouth and let out a scream. The dead people all turned to look at me before approaching cautiously. I looked at the other two.
"Well go, I am playing distraction to make it easy on you two nerds."
They both took off running before I came face to face with the most ugly looking batters I have seen.
"Ooo you people seriously need a make over."
They simple rose their swords at me. I rose my hands in surrender.
"Hey no need to get all upset about it I am just saying."
They said some meat up language somewhere along the lines of himch trell mickleg. I cupped my ear to the one that said it.
"I am sorry I didn't get that can you say it again."
Damn I am spending way to much time with Lash before all of this. The dead thing came at me swinging like a crazy manic. Oh well that's my Q. I jump up grabbing a low branch and hustling myself up. I reach to the sky summoning the biggest storm cloud I could master. I grabbed onto a thing of lightning before jumping down bring the force with me.
