Silence filled in between us like time had stopped. He cleared his throat and smiled.

"I'm Aeolus, but you can call me Reef."

"Reef?" I questioned, raising a brow.

"Yeah, Reef." He chuckled.

Why does it sound familiar to me now? Why does HE look familiar?

"Um, who are you?" Reef asked, waiting patiently.

"Charlotte." I said.

He gave a slight nod then put his finger on his chin, thinking.

"What's...wrong?" I asked, curious.

"Oh, nothing. Just thinking. Anyways, you're a mortal, right?"

"Yes."

"Oh! So, you must've fell in the well."

"How did you know?"

Reef paused for a chuckle, having me to think clueless.

"I saw you, and I'm like, I never seen any mortal come to our world. I guess you got my signal?"

"Your signal?"

That's when it hit me; the gush of wind that pushed me in the well. I raised my head, mouthing "oh". Reef nodded as he understood as if he solved a puzzle rven though he knew the answers.

"Well, I...I need your help." Reef spoke, looking anxious.

"With what?" I questioned.

"Um, I need your help to find all of my friends, the Six Gods?"

I was quiet then had a thought.

The Six Gods.

"Sound similar?" Reef asked.

I blinked then shook my head.

"Well, it's a story about the Six Gods who-"

"-fought Incubus and they were seperated." I finished.

He blinked in surprised.

"Oh? So, you know the story?" He questioned.

I nodded.

"Great! Let's go!"

He walked towards the doors and I followed, confused.

"Wait, what? Already?" I spoke, touching his shoulder.

He stopped then looked confused as I am.

"What? You know the whole story, right?" He asked again.

"Yes, but what happened after the Gods were seperated?"

"I'll tell you while we walk."

I huffed then followed him out. Outside was different: I was walking on clouds. My heart dropped, thinking I would fall to my death.

"Don't worry, you won't fall." Reef smiled, looking over his shoulder.

I gave him a look then continued, calming myself down. The sun shined on both of us while we walked down the white steps.

"So, about the Six Gods?" I questioned.

"Oh, yes, after they seperated, everything became unbalanced. It broke the two worlds apart, causing one power taking over at once, if you know what I mean, overlapping? Anyways, I noticed about the Incubus thing that he only seperate us so he can become stronger. So, I tried bringing all of us back together, but they closed on me. Each. One. Did. I was devastated; I was afraid our world would been broken forever; our leader, Deity had disappeared without a trace, and if it never came together, Incubus could take over and enter the real world."
