koryandrs: Thank you!
"Get back here!"
"Stop her!"
Asgardian guards chased after a fleeing white wolf. The wolf's lush hide had yellowy fur on the back, tail, and the back of her ears. Her tail was pinned between her legs as she sprinted away from the pursing guards. A yelp of fright escaped her when her amber eyes landed upon more guards charging in front of her. The she-wolf's paws slipped from under her as she took a sharp turn toward the castle. Hastily she gathered herself as she bolted up the grand stairs to the impressive castle ahead.
Ladies and maidservants screamed at the sudden burst of the she-wolf's dramatic entrance. The yellowy-white wolf scurried past the tall Asgardians and turned round many corners. Eventually, she found herself in the main hall. The large table was filled with wondrous foods. Her salmon-pink tongue lolled out of her mouth as she attacked the table. Making her way to the end, she messily sampled all the dishes and drinks.
At the center of the table, the guards' yells echoed in her ears. Quickly she snatched five sausages that were linked together and fled. Once the wolf was hiding behind a corner, she transformed into a rather small girl with a short, gray-brown dress that ended at her thighs. Her yellowy wolf ears were where the ears of a human would be. They were held horizontally flat with merriment as she nibbled away at the sausage. Her eyes were shut with glee from the delicious food that danced across her taste buds. She had long, flowing golden hair that went to her waist. A few, tiny braids were made hither and thither; and it was graced with beautiful, tiny hybrid tea roses from the garden. A long, furry tail of a wolf stuck out beneath the hem of her dress. It wagged softly.
She froze when the score of guards rushed past her, still searching for the mischievous girl. Once they turned a corner, she giggled as she continued to eat the sausage.
"You are nearly as bad as my brother, Damsel Liv."
Liv jumped, and gagged on the large bite of sausage that got caught in her throat. She gulped it down and looked up at Thor with watery eyes.
"What have you done now, silly cub?" he asked with a chuckle with a grin that stretched from ear to ear.
She shrugged as she took the last bite of sausage. "Chased the farmers' livestock," Liv answered as she looked at him with coy, amber eyes. The Animèe spoke with the common accent of her realm. A nasal-accent. Liv looked away sheepishly, "Again."
Thor chuckled, "Beware, little cub. They found you."
Liv's eyes widened as she looked over Thor. The score of guards had found her, and they were pursuing her yet again. With a squeak of fright, she changed back into a wolf and fled quickly. She sprinted all the way down the hall and turned to the right. The guards were right on her tail.
Thor's eyes widened. She was heading toward the All Father's throne room. Without a second thought, he ran after them.
Blindly, Liv ran away from the guards. Unknowingly, she sprung into the All Father's throne room. Realization hit her too late. The yelped as she tripped over the small flight of stairs. She spun head over tail, and landed awkwardly on her chest with her rump in the air. Standing before her were the last people she wanted to see: Odin and Eir, her mentor. Behind her, before the stairs, the guards were kneeling before their King. Hastily, Liv fixed herself and changed back into her humanly-form and swiftly lowered herself into the kneeling-position. Shortly after, Thor entered the throne room, but stopped in front of the threshold.
"Liv," Odin murmured.
The girl swallowed a lump down her throat as her ears flattened with shame.
Here's the next chapter. Picture Liv with a French-accent. That's kind of what I meant by "nasal-accent". FYI. That's how her realm spoke, generally.
Hope you guys are liking the story so far! I've been thinking of this plot for awhile now. Never knew how to put it all together till now. Hopefully I won't lose muse, hehe.
Liv is a really fun character. She's gonna be really comical and kind of unpredictable. Just to give you guys a "heads up". :)
