"If you have seen this man, please call this number." Went the reporter as a string of white numbers strolled underneath.

I picked up the phone seeing a cash reward had been on the news segment.

I've been staying at a hotel for the week using the cash that I had in my purse. I've also taken a part time job that ends in the afternoons.My job in real life is what I cannot tell; if I told someone then I would have to kill them.But that would be a reasonable cause to do it in real life, however this reality doesn't have anyone named Emily Strange in the field I work. So my badge wouldn't work in this reality because there isn't another me.

Trust me on this, I have checked.

In five minutes I did the important call, with a reply that someone would follow up.

The call ended quite smoothly.

My flip phone has a full charge because I bought a charger.

For the past week I've been setting my life up into a temporary form of normalcy.

Now I had a whole Saturday to relax.

I missed Lewis and my wacky relatives back home. How Uncle Stan would send wooden replicas of certain animals to my house, my pesky next door neighbors cranking up the music at night so much I had to wear tough earmuffs for my ears so that I could sleep,the next door neighbor dog chasing after my bumper for three miles every morning without getting killed.

"Never thought I would miss hearing a dog barking while chasing after me." I said, jokingly.

I press a few buttons to land on contact list. Lewis's name is in the list, including a profile picture of a kitten wearing a Santa Clause hat.The cute kitten made me feel better about my current given situation. Can a quick call last between two different realities?, I thought staring down to the block of text reading 'Lewis the Strange cat'. Lets give this a shot.I scroll down to Lewis's user name then once on it I tap on the green button across from the central rounded menu key.

I put the phone to my right ear and listen for the rings.

"Yo Emily!" Lewis answered. I sigh, relieved to hear his voice. "Where...you...been?"

I could hear the static on his end.

"Marvel," I said, shutting the blinds to the room. "And Lewis,tell me you're not at Las Vegas."

"No, I...not," Lewis said. "Emily...you...my...?"

He probably is asking 'are you pulling my leg?'.

"I am in Marvel," I said, turning away from the blinds.

I heard Lewis break out into laughter.

"Nice....sis!" Lewis said as the static grew louder.

I knew then he wasn't in a noisy area,it was frankly the partial the connections fault that must be strained at this point carrying a low quality broadband width frequency.I have heard of this saying a couple days ago from some techy guys by the water cooler before finding myself face to face with a fictional character.

"I am not joking." I said, sitting down on the bed.

"Connection...bad," Lewis said. "Where...you?"

"Sending you a selfie," I said,and then lower the phone from my ear.

God knows how that sounded on Lewis's end.I tagged Loki in the picture then sent it to Lewis. I decided to make a text message. I ended the call and pulled up the text message option.

"I was picking your lock when someone threw me,and then, I got back up and tried to pick the lock again.There so happened to be a talking cat." I texted. "Which wasn't a talking cat at all!" I put double exclamation marks. I sent the message then continued on. "The cat transformed into Loki Laufeyson." I put a wide eyed emote right beside the word 'laufeyson'. "I ran."

Dot,dot, dot.

That is really what I saw on the left hand side of the blue screen.

"Nice cat," Lewis texts. "Terrible story."

"Crazy thing is, hold on to your seat, there was a loose zoo Rhino running down the streets!"I text back.

"Hah," Lewis texted back. "That's not possible."

"I think Loki let out the Rhino." I text. "A living squeak toy."

"Rhinos are not squeak toys." Lewis texts back, with several exclamation marks.

"Bro, they squeak." I text.

Knock, Knock, Knock.

"...This is gonna involve me to check out the Zoo." Lewis texted.

"Yep." I text, with a smiley face and get up from the bed.

The knocks became harder and faster as I came to the door.

"Sis, where are you?" Lewis texted.

"Still in Boston." I text. "But not in your Boston."

Lewis texts back a confused emote.

"I don't get it." Lewis texted back.

I stopped at the door.

"I'll put you on speaker." I texted, and then put it on speaker. I then slowly open the door. "All right I am opening the door—"

A man with long blond hair, including a short beard, and at first I wondered if it were me that his eyes were like an innocent teddy bear stood. He wielded a hammer in one hand. The look on his face reminded me of the Australian guy at comic con—who so happened to be in the 1st 2009 reboot movie of Star Trek in the beginning scene—ever so genuinely.

"Emily Strange?"

I blink and blink and blink.

"Uh...." I gape. "Uh..." Damn he looks attractive and strong for a another version of Louise Lane. "Uh..."

"I didn't introduce myself. I am Thor Odinson," Thor introduces himself. "Where did you last see Loki?"

"Sis,that...voice...Chris...Hemsworth..." Lewis said over the connection. "Sounds...like...Thor."

Thor looks over to my phone looking quite puzzled.

"I am Thor," Thor said.

"I...Lewis...Lestrange," Lewis said.

"He means Strange," I said,with a nervous laugh. "Lestrange is an inside joke."

"Is someone trapped in your phone?" Thor asks.

"No," I said. "I...eh....I have a bad connection between realities."

"Asgard does not have machines that contain people," Thor said.

"Sis, that—hilarious—nice—Thor—impression," Lewis said.

I turn the speaker off, then snapshotted Thor, and sent the snap shot to Lewis.

"Okay, Thor," I said. "I last saw Loki at the Zoo." I manage to put a time sign and a 'p' right beside it then sent it to Lewis.I then turned my attention off the phone. "He had quite the nerve to distract me and then send me to a Hotel using some magic."

Buzzing came from the phone.

"Sent you?" Thor asks.

"I looked the other way because he, I quote, claimed 'look, there is a flying mermaid' pointing off to the distance in shock," I said as the phone vibrated against the palm of my hand making a buzzing noise.

Thor had a small laugh.

"Sounds like Loki," Thor said. "Your hand is buzzing."

"That text can wait," I said. "I like to bet you might find him at a BookStore where a man by the name Richard Castle is signing books today." The light in Thor's eyes brightened. "Loki was reading a Castle book; last time I saw him." I recalled the store. "It is the General Book Buy Store."

Thor left but with a quick 'Thank you'.

He was gone like the wind.

I look down to my phone and saw Lewis's reply.

"That's not fair." Lewis had texted back, with an angry emote. "Why do girls have to be so lucky?"

"Because we are." I texted back.

"So let me get this straight." Lewis texts back. "You're in Marvel."

"Yes." I texted back.I added a nodding emote.

"Like IN Marvel." Lewis texted back, capitalizing 'in'.

"Why yes." I text back, again.

"You..." Lewis dramatically texts back that one word with a couple dots. Oh damn, how much of a drama-king is he supposed to be aiming for. "...were..." I turn away from the door then use my right foot with a slipper to close the door.I walk away hearing the door gently click signalling it has closed softly. "Thrown into Marvel."

"That would have been a lot better with dramatic music." I text.

"No, it would have been better with crickets." Lewis argued back in another text.

"Music." I texted back.

"Crickets!" Lewis texts back, with an angry emote.

"Love you, bro." I text. "Catching up on on a late bookdate. Talk to you later, bro."

I turned off the flip-phone, then grab a quick book and sat in the chair. Which I began to get comfortable reading this unusual book.
