A portal appeared in the crossfire. Utter silence filled the room,dust finally came to a settle. I take off the goggles to see a figure appear. My men were coughing, their guns lowered,in this unexpected turn of events. A explosive went off sending some wall material flying down. However the explosive did not seem to hurt the slowly approaching figure. Why did I take off the goggles? I took them off to see a strange and reckless figure.

The flames had made a split apart making a path for the figure straight towards our shelter.

"What the hell is this guy on?" Joe, my second soldier, said with a cough.

"I don't know," I said.

"Maybe he's on something so high it can't be given a name," Hoch, my third soldier, theorized.

The portal had unusually spread out making a shield between the firing shooters and our recently struck shelter.The portal changed from a portal to a force field reflecting the bullets back to the background.I can feel tears coming down ever so suddenly. I could feel some form of recognition already coming to.

I take a step back off from the door.

"Men, back off from the door!" I order my men.

My men back away from the door.

T-Thump went the door. A man walks in with black gorgeous combed back hair, eyes of a cool green gem, and the appearance of a young prince coming from the Edwardian times. He held something in his right hand that is closed. Everyone in the room is staring at him yet the man didn't pay attention to the others. Oddly I can feel his attention is stuck on me, focused, really focused. Memories flash in my mind.

Confusing memories at first.

Is it me or is Tom Hiddleston dressed up as Loki Laufeyson?

"Emily," The Tom Hiddleston Loki dressed man said. "When I said I would find you; I meant it."

I remember;this is Loki, the real and living Norse god. I remember how I first met him as a talking cat. I remembered basically ditching him to the orphanage and then raising him as a teenager. Then everything returned to my memory after that point. The corners of my eyes swell up tears walking towards Loki. I drop my gun to the floor.

I hug Loki, crying, feeling glad to be with him after months.

"I missed you, Loki," I said.

"Ah, was I that late?" Loki teasingly asks as I look up.

"Very late," I said, flicking off a tear. I look towards the active portal acting as a force field. "Is that it?"

"Yes," Loki said.

I could see the glint of the emerald rings in his hand with the carvings 'L' and 'E'.

"And the emerald rings," I said. Loki remembered our conversation about what would make a pair of good wedding rings. "Our rings."

Loki nods.

The men were staring at us, gawking pretty much, in shell shock. I end the hug wiping off what tears had started to come out. Loki turns towards the men and then looks both ways as though checking if there wasn't any oncoming bullets.

"Speak none of this, and I will freeze your nagging opponents," Loki said.

"Yes, we swear!" Joe said, quickly nodding.

"I swear over the grave of humanity's first ancestor!" Hoch joins in.

Loki smiles, turning his head towards me.

"Should we ask your parents or your brother?" Loki asks.

"My brother," I said. After all they've held back from me; I want my brother to give the blessing. "He knows nothing of what our parents kept back."

"Hold on," Loki said, taking my hand,as the force field disappeared. "And don't let go."

With a snap of his fingers I could see the outside become cloaked in a blanket of ice. It was then,before my eyes, that the entire scenery changed from a disaster ridden building to a casual and calm easy feeling atmosphere. A phone was dropped. I turned my attention to the dropped phone to see Lewis standing holding a white cat with six toes in his arms.

"He's...real," Lewis said, dropping the white gorgeous cat.

The white gorgeous cat meows coming towards me.

"Of course I am." Loki said. He held a hand out. Guess what the cat did to me? The cat swats at me. "Nice to meet the brother-in-law."

Lewis, walks forward, until he came to a step away from Loki. Lewis slowly shook Loki's hand in shock.

"Emily has quite the stories about you," Lewis glares towards me, with his mouth open, and a 'why would you do that to me?' look. Loki turns the white gorgeous cat into a black raven cat with bright blue eyes. "Would it be strange if you had a god married to your sister?"

Lewis closes his mouth, and ended the hand shake.

The cat hisses.

"Yes," Lewis said.

"You are a rock giant," Loki said. "I thought that wouldn't have been weird."

Lewis, being confused, had a 'rock giant?...' glint in his eyes.

I change my appearance at will.

"Mom and Dad are rock giants," I said. "So are you. We are immortal; big bro."

"I—I—-I can't believe it," Lewis said.

"Believe it," Loki said. "Because you are living an immortal's life."

"...Loki, turn the cat back," I said.

"Really?" Loki asks, his head turned towards me raising one of his magnificent brows. "The cat is going to be running around in ruins if she gets in dirt."

"Do it," I said.

"Fine," Loki said,turning the cat back into white. "Lewis Strange," The cat runs out through the cat door into the backyard. "Would you give your blessing if I were to marry your sister?"

"Yes," Lewis said. "I give you my blessing to marry my sister."

"Loki," I said. "I am ready to do it."

"Which 'it' are you talking about?" Loki asks. "There is two 'its' in life."

"I am gonna be a uncle!" Lewis cheers.

I take the emerald ring out of Loki's hand.

"Loki," I said, kneeling with the ring in my hand. "Will you marry me?"

"I have been waiting for you to ask," Loki said. "I prefer to be called by Loki Strange on Midgard; though the other realms it should be left as 'Odinson'."

"Deal!" I said. "And to others; you are still a Odinson."

Mrs Emily Strange and Mr Loki Strange to Midgard.

Emily Costnerdottir and Loki Odinson to the eight realms.

We exchange rings.

"I know where I belong,Bro." I said. "I belong in a world that our parents had left."

"Marvel?" Lewis said, blinking repeatedly.

"Yes," I said with a nod. "That's where we are from. Just call Mother and Father; they will explain it better than I."

Loki picks me up into his arms, bridal style, so unexpectedly that I squeaked.

"Okay," Lewis said. "And call me once in a while, you hear?"

"We'll make sure," Loki said.

"Double sure," I said. "So,Loki, where would you want to do start our honeymoon off?"

The portal appeared once more.

"Hmm...Santa Barbara." Loki said. "I have a very good idea how fun it is."

"You two lovebirds go," Lewis said,taking out his phone. "I have some calling to do!"

Loki laughs, shaking his head.

"Nothing is logical in Midgard." Loki said. "Goodbye, brother-in-law."

"Goodbye brother!" I said, with a little wave as Loki went through the portal.

And the story goes on.

The End.
