Grandma, can we help Loki?

Hey Grandma

Elizabeth came into her grandparents room ever so quietly.The brown door is halfway open. Usually her grandparents, Gloria and Trevor, would be up this time.Trevor's snores are the least of Elizabeth's concern since he is her grandpa after all. Elizabeth came to Gloria's side of the bed holding Princess Aurora close.

"Grandma." Elizabeth said, shaking Gloria's shoulder.

"Yes Liz?" Gloria tiredly asks, her eyes closed.

"Grandma, can we help Loki?' Elizabeth asks. "Loki claims to be a spare, but, he looks like a prince to me."

"Sure." Gloria tiredly replied.

"Yay." Elizabeth whispers. "You won't regret it."

Elizabeth darts out of the bedroom, very quietly, and Gloria's arm tipped off the bed.Elizabeth goes back outside with a bright outlook in her mind. She actually skipped her way down the hallway with her recently put on pink slippers without missing a beat on the shiny brown floors.We can see rough marks shaped similar to hooves here and there big enough to belong to a deer of some kind.

"Grandma said yes!" Elizabeth said once outside, and then tilts her head. "How sharp is the pain in the waist?"

Loki feels the side of his left thigh that stung.Considerably that was odd since usually feeling the injured part would come right after crash landing into a hard surface.This is way out of logic.But these wounds would be healed in  couple hours, and, Loki did not  need to be outside all day  in the middle of a crater while that happens.

"It's not only my waist, it's my legs." Loki said. "I can't get up."

A happy smile slips on Elizabeth's face.

"Oh, no worries." Elizabeth said.  "I'll just call Jake the Elk."

"Jake the--what?" Loki said, caught off guard.

Elizabeth turns away putting her two fingers into her mouth and made a rather unique whistle. A dark brown dot came in the distance and came closer to the backyard with a snort.Loki's eyes grew wide in shock seeing a Elk with huge antlers curling back right towards the small tail at the back coming closer towards the yard. The Elk is really huge, well so are many animals in Texas, that Loki could see smoke jet out of the Elk's nose. Elizabeth takes her fingers out of her mouth.

"Hello Jake!" Elizabeth said, as the Elk jumps over the fence.

Jake the Elk shook his head to the sides pawing at the dirt.

"Jake is a really nice Elk when you don't seem dangerous." Elizabeth said, as Jake the Elk comes to her side.

Jake lowered his head down to the calm friendly little girl. Elizabeth strokes the side of Jake's head.

"Elks are not the friendliest of all bucks." Loki said.

"Elks, Moose, and Deer are different animals."  Elizabeth said. "Jake, put Loki into the house."

Jake the Elk lifts his head up making a flute like sound that could be best described as using a copy of a velociraptor's whistler part except more hollow and attempting sounding. Jake lowered his head with antler's open while pawing at the ground.Jake the Elk carefully scoops Loki up into his antlers which made the Mischievous God feel higher than Elizabeth. It was actually quite satisfying to be above Elizabeth, and, that she is a very strange Midgardian. 

"Don't throw Loki into the next door nieghbor's pool, Jake." Elizabeth said. "You can do it later."

Jake the Elk makes a groan shaking his head lightly and went around the house.

"You can speak to animals." Loki said.  "Only Asgardians gifted with this power can do it."

"Fortunately for you, I understand animals." Elizabeth said, tagging along. "And My Kaptain is...Wait, I just said her name wrong, aw, sorry girly." Elizabeth hugs her little Prince Aurora doll. "Sorry, My Captain." She pats on Princess Aurora's hair that had a distinctive yellow crown. "My Captain is the sidekick I can always rely on to be there for me."

Jake the Elk taps on the wall that is part of the living room by using his hoof.Bricks suddenly parted ways making  a hole big enough for Jake the Elk to walk through.Loki's mouth fell open at the shock of this all unfolding before his eyes trying to comprehend this unbelievable moment.Jake the Elk lowers his head walking into the living room making a clad sound against the wooden floors.Elizabeth is making Jake almost do a Bambi thing except the floor is not icy and slippery; it is a shiny wooden floor.

"Midgardian, you're making the Elk Dance!" Loki said.

"My name is Elizabeth, but my grandparents like to call me Liz." Elizabeth said. "Don't worry about little old Jake; he's done this countless times when I've been home alone."

lizabeth helps Jake slide down the wide hallway so much that Jake's hooves made scuff marks along the floor until it was stopped by a couch.

"I know this is the least of your concerns, Jake." Elizabeth said.

Jake the Elk walks in-between the couch then uses his  back legs  to push the table across from the couch making the table legs brush hard against the unusual colored rug.Elizabeth went down the hallway skipping towards her room to get her clothes for the day. Jake the Elk lowers his head down sliding Loki into the couch.Loki feels a twinge of hot pain from his thighs descending the antlers then landing in the couch where his boots landed on elevated soft comfy pillows.

Weren't Asgardians, Frost Giants, and other godly beings not meant to get injured from a five story fall? Asgardians anticipated jumping out of a glass window, then landing with a unique grace, and unhindered. Unfortunately for Loki his crash landing had not been expected due to the unstable Bifrost effect.

"Why are you friends with a little Midgardian?"  Loki asks Jake the Elk.

Jake the Elk walks around the table with his head lowered and went to the backside of the short rectangle table.

"Great." Loki said, rubbing his forehead with an irritated sigh. Jake the Elk pushes forward the rectangle table forwards back where it had been prior.  "Now I am the one talking to animals."

Jake makes his hollow deep whistle and then went out the big hole carefully but surely cautious.

"Nothing is making sense." Loki said, looking up towards the ceiling. "Is this Midgardian meant to be a mystery?" His hands were up and his fingers had curled up.The stacks of bricks closed behind Jake the Elk,magically.Loki looks down from the ceiling with a shake of his head. "Something is not right about this Midgardian."

Loki looks towards the table then grabs a remote and presses the power button.

The screen sizzled to life and a man, who Loki would learn, named Richard Castle appeared on the screen.Loki made a ball of popcorn appear in his arms and he started eating watching Castle dressed up as a space cowboy. Then it oddly took a twist diving into the world of vampires. Loki discovered that 'Richard Castle' is a writer allowed to work with the police.

"That is not entirely possible."  Loki said.  "A mortal, who does not have a job in that field, allowed to work alongside them for research?"

"It is TV." Elizabeth said, holding a big zip up bag. "Ooh, how did that chick die?"

"Suffocation." Loki said,popping some popcorn into his mouth. "She was found dangling in the playground covered in caramel sauce."

"Eww." Elizabeth said. "Caramel sauce is yucky."

"Actually, it is very tasty." Loki said, after he swallowed the popcorn.

Elizabeth shook her head with an eye roll.

"I'll see you in a few hours, Loki." Elizabeth said. "I have a play date with Robert in the forest." Loki had not heard of 'play' and 'dates' used in the same sentence before. "Also,Grandpa loves to watch his soaps, so if you want to get on his good-side then let him watch Days of Our Lives."

"His soaps?" Loki asks.

"Soap Opera." Elizabeth said, with a little wave while  heading out the door holding her Princess Aurora doll. "Bye!"

The door shuts behind Elizabeth.
