...8:34 DN...(Delta Night)

...Midgard...

We all make enemies in our life. Sometimes we make them without really intending to do so. Just take a look at all the major historical people and see how many enemies they made in life related to the history of America. They made quite a lot in a nutshell. So I was a little surprised when Gary showed up at a fair in Ohio one year after I had been turned into a human.

At that time I had regained my basic common skills and motor skills.

Though sometimes I slip and speak in Portuguese.

"You are responsible for the death of my dear friend, Loki," Gary said, his voice fueled in anger. "And I will make you pay for it."

"Uh huh," Loki said. "You can't exactly get vengeance exacted on a god."

"Mark my words," Gary said. "And this is only a warning."

Gary turns away then disappears into the crowd.

"That is an old man bluffing," Loki said. "He will never succeed."

"When did you meet Gary?" I ask.

"A long time ago," Loki said. "Let's go to the Flying Boat ride."

The way Loki said it sounded like 'a hundred so years ago'.

"How long ago?" I ask.

"Long enough he should be dead by now," Loki said. "And I do not know how he is still alive."

I laugh.

"I know how he is staying alive," I said, following Loki hand in hand to a resting ride being an Egyptian themed boat. Loki raises a brow. We had several tickets and the certified paper bracelet around our wrists meaning we did pay to be in the fair. "Time travel."

Loki lowers his brow.

"But that is not possible," Loki said.

"What if it is possible?" I suggest.

"I know few people capable of time traveling," Loki said. "And he is a laugh."

"Sometimes the laughing fools turn out right," I said. "And you just told me you know some other time travelers."

"That is because they are not mortal," Loki said. "And know what they are doing. Gary, on the other hand, does not know what he is doing!"

I smile while we get into the line.

"I met Gary at the Exhibit," I said. "After you left as Harry Da Vinci with Sabrina MaCoffle." I can tell by Loki's eyes that it is surprising. "Gary appeared in a Go-Kart with stuff only ripped out of Back to The Future's time traveling car except sophisticated and not appearing to be a piece of junk."

"A Go-Kart," Loki said, with a 'seriously?' facial reaction on his face.

"Yes, a Go-Kart," I said. "And he used soda to refuel it."

"Did someone say a Go-Kart was able to be refueled by soda?" A young Hispanic man asks. He is right in front of us wearing a black shirt with a skull on it, black shorts decorated in white skulls, and big boots dangling in silver skeleton decorations.

"I did," I said.

"Is it true Americans use soda to refuel Go-Karts?" The young Hispanic man asks.

"It is true," Loki lied. "I have seen it for myself."

The Hispanic Young man's mouth fell open.

"They said it was bananas!" The young Hispanic man said.

"You been told lies," I said, tapping my high heels on the grass.

The young Hispanic man turns away.

"Hey guys!" The young Hispanic man starts. "Get your sodas, we can power on the old Go-Karts at the back!" The line of people once facing forward now turns towards the young Hispanic man. He seemed so confident. "Follow me!"

The young Hispanic man lead the crowd away leaving only seven people in the line.

Being with Loki does have its perks.

"That was fun," I said, in between the laughter we were sharing after the ride.

"Did you see the look on the mortals faces when I made the statue of a fish appear above the cotton candy station?" Loki asks.

I have a soft laugh.

"I didn't notice that one," I said. "I was too busy laughing at the Pokémon ride you made."

"I did not make a Pokémon ride," Loki said.

I nudge Loki.

"I saw you make a pretty awesome ride," I said. "That was so cute."

Loki acts as though he did not make it.

"No,Emily, " Loki said. "I did not."

I take Loki by the hand and guide him to a ride that has everyone at a spectacle. The look on Loki's face is so genuine I had a doubt to myself if I had seen what I had saw. The seats appear to be rather new, the gates are beyond clean shining in the moonlight, and a control panel sat across from the Pokémon Starter rides. I plant a kiss on Loki's pale cheek. Regardless of Loki insisting he did not make it; it was rather sweet.

"This is beyond explanation," Loki finally said, at the new ride.

"Maybe a future you made it and used the one moment where you made the fish statue to make me something else," I suggest, earning a look from Loki. "It is a possible theory."

"I am not fond of using time travel to change experiences in the past," Loki said. "It is a mess I do not want stepping in."

"I get it," I said, winking.

"Hey," Boy 1 said, towards the owners of the fair coming in through the back gate. "Are we going to ride this thing or what?"

"No," The dark broad man said. "Not until we get an explanation what happened here."

"I GOT ONE!" Boy 3 said. "Magic!"

"No," Boy 8 said. "Aliens did this!"

"You are both wrong, boys," Girl 5 said. "The CIA planted it and wants to get all our internet history through this ride!"

Well that quickly made half of the crowd leave.

"Magic, magic, magic," Boy 3 said.

Loki turns the boy into a parrot.

"Magic!" Boy 3 as a parrot sings.

"Oh Cleveland!" A African American shrieks. "He's a parrot!"

"No, he is a plane," Girl 11 said.

"A rabbit!" Boy 2 said.

"He is a parrot," Loki said.

"HE IS SUPERMAN!" Another person exaggerates.

"Maaggic!" Boy 3 as a parrot continues singing ignoring the fuss.

"...Loki, turn the poor boy back into a man," I said.

"And give him X-ray vision like the flying fool," Loki said. "I will gladly do it."

Loki turns boy 3 as a parrot back into a boy.

"He just turned back into a human!" The exaggerating person declares.

"Who did?" Boy 3 asks.

"You did!" The woman who shouted Cleveland had said.

Loki and I left the crowd to their wild commotion.

Poor boy; he didn't know what happened.

"See what I 'did not make' do?" Loki asks.

"Yes," I said. "You just got a boy hear old lines from Superman in a century where the cartoon does not air."

"That cartoon does still air," Loki said, as we went to another station being a 'hit the mole and get a prize'. "It comes on at 1 in Delta Morning."

Gary, from the last time I saw him, looks exactly the same minus the filth.

"You stay up watching cartoons?" I ask.

Loki nods.

"Boomerang has the best cartoons," Loki said. "CartoonNetwork, on the other hand, not so much."

We came to the counter of the station.

"I bet you can't hit the mole," I said.

"I can hit anything going faster than me," Loki said.

"You are on, Loki," I said. "If you lose; you have to write an essay how time travel is good."

"If I win; you have to write an essay on how bad time travel is," Loki said.

"Deal," I said, holding my hand out.

And we shook hands on it.
