This is the third of 5 I am writing to help those on the #GISHWHES scavenger hunt. Misha Collins wanted short stories 140 words or less about an elopus, Misha, and the Queen of England. Fun enough. This is for team RAWRLovesWeGoDownSwinging at the request of @OrlandoRLWGDS on Twitter:

“You are the two greatest warriors in the land,” stated the Queen as she looked down at Misha Collins and Orlando Jones.
“We are honored to serve,” replied Misha and Orlando in unison.
“Your task is simple. Go out and slay the great Elopus and…”
The Queen was cut off mid-sentence as the doors to the chamber flew open and the Elopus burst in, instantly flaying the guards.
The giant octopus-elephant hybrid shrieked as it continued towards the two heroes.
“Good thing I brought this,” responded Orlando pulling out a bottle of Head and Shoulders and squirting it on the Elopus.
“Selenium sulfide is no longer the active ingredient,” stated Misha. “Good thing I brought my handy angel blade though.”
Before Misha had time to act, the Elopus sprang forward and swallowed both him and Orlando.
