Freya

Chapter 8

The cold air woke Apolla up. She opened her eyes and looked around the darkness where she was. The floor where she was lying was hard and everywhere she look was dark. “Where I am?” She murmured and looked around again. She had the ability to be able to see in darkness but what happened now? She can’t see anything. Was is because she lost her power and ability or was it because there is nothing in this place but endless darkness?

If she was right with her second guess, then where is she? Where she was stuck and where is her friend Freya?

She suddenly remembered her friend. “Freya?! Where are you?? Can you hear me?” She increased her voice but she only heard the echo of what she just asked from the deep darkness. “Freya?????”

“Freyaaaaaa??” It echoed again.

Because no one was answering her, she tried to walk, hoping she could find someone or anything that might help her. She covered herself with her arms when she felt the weather was so cold. “Freya??? Where are you? I can’t see anything. I’m so sacred.” She bit her lower lips because of the cold she can’t endure. “Freya!!” Suddenly her tears fell from her eyes. She had no idea what to do now in order to leave this place and fins her friend.

“Apolia,” she mentioned her friend’s name when she looked down the bridge where they were standing. A sudden curiosity hits her. The clouds and fags under were very thick.

“What is it?”

“Have you ever known what’s under this bridge? No, not I mean the clouds, okay? I mean what’s under these clouds?” She stared at them moving slowly. “El Reino was in the highest part of the sky, our world and our palace were flying along these beautiful and powerful clouds, but do you know what’s under us?” Freya is always the goddess who had been very curious in different things, just like when her master taught her some spell, Freya asked her how she learned everything and many more. She is always the curious goddess that asking so many things to everyone.

“Under us?” Apolia fell in a deep thought. She sets her arm on her hips and the other one was on her chin, thinking if ever she heard something about it from her mother Esmeralda. “Oh, yes, I remembered something just mom told me.”

“And what is it?”

“That under us, or under our world, there is another dimension that is connected to human world.”

“Human? Is that a name?” Freya stood straight and stared at her. When Apolia wagged her head, it made her more curious about. “Then, what is that?”

“It’s a better word to call mortals.”

“Oh, mortals, I heard it before. Mortals are the other God’s creation, right? But they have short life span and very opposite to us since we are immortals and we have power.” This information she got was from her master. The master might be talking sluggishly sometimes but she is sometimes talkative about the things that she wanted Freya to learn, beside magic.

“Exactly.”

“If that was a human world, then there are mortals under us.”

“Yes, and they are the one that used most of my mother’s creation, humans are using nature. It’s where they can get their supplements, food, water and other things for their living. They are using our creation and also the one that ruined it too. They can be good sometimes and destructive sometimes.”

“Wow! What you’d just told me, really made me curious about. You made me curious about human and their world called Earth.” A smile formed her lips. Her eyes showed how much her interest about the topic and that was uncountable. Their topic turned her up. “I’m curios about their world and how is it working, do they have our majesty like us? How they look and many more.” She looked down the clouds again. “That was amazing, I can’t imagine there are lives under our world.”

Apolia nodded and smiled at her. She leaned forward on the fence. “You will never believe me, Freya, because in their world, men do exist.”

“Men?”

“Men means male humans.”

Freya’s eyes widened. “Oh, my highness! That was amazing! I never seen a man. Because of that additional information, I want to visit their world,” she said with a playful smile on her lips. She did not expect the same expression with Apolia. Both their eyes were shinning. These goddesses are looking for another adventure in their life. “I think we are having the same thing on our minds.”

Apolia nodded. “Yes.” She gave her a genuine smile. “Would you like to visit their world now?”

Freya nodded immediately. “Yes! Yes—but, Apolia, that was forbidden, right? And there is a possibility we receive a punishment.”

“Yes, if they will know. But if not?” They both smiled mischievously

“Then we will not receive any punishment.”

Their conversation ended there when Freya waved her hand, casting some magic and the next thing happened, they were stuck in the middle of the dark.

 “Where I am? What if I was stuck in the middle of the portal because Freya’s magic went wrong?” Apolla asked herself with her tears continued falling down her cheeks. There is a big possibility that she was really stuck in the middle of nowhere inside the portal, especially that Freya had not master her power yet. What if it she was really stuck? What is she going to do now?

She had no idea what to do with this kind of situation. Because of it. She went feared and lost her hope to scape the place. “FREYA!! HELP ME!”
