Opposites

Chapter 1

"Hmm. This doesn't seem right." Oliver muttered, a slight frown creasing his features.

He continued to flip through a worn, heavy book. The pages yellowed and torn.

"Oh please..." he flipped through the book at a faster pace, searching for a certain page.

"Here." Oliver traced the words with his finger as he read what had been written thousands of years ago.

"Worlds colliding? Balance broken? What does this mean?" Oliver was confused and was slightly panicking. He continued reading the page, in search of anything helpful.

"You must bridge the gap between the two worlds....?" the Brit muttered aloud, the sentence echoing in his mind.

Oliver slammed the book shut, causing a cloud of dust to erupt around him. He unconsciously carried the book with him upstairs as he left his damp, dull basement.

Suddenly he could hear the same voice from earlier, louder than before.

You must bridge the gap between the two worlds.

The strange voice and eerie tone made him shudder and his baby blue eyes widen.

Bridge the gap! You must bridge the gap between the two worlds!

The echoes turned to screams, screams that Oliver could not ignore.

Stumbling blindly down the hallway, trying to block out the painful noise ringing in his head, Oliver came face to face with the large mirror he had hanging in his walkway, and the screams vanished instantly.

"Huh?" he stood puzzled, studying his reflection in the mirror. Nothing had changed from this morning when he had seen himself.

Suddenly a force pulled him into the mirror, a scream escaping the Brit's lips, before everything went dark.

Allen and Matt both had a bad feeling, though neither understood why.

"Hey bro?" Matt entered his brother's kitchen. "Can you hear that?"

"Hear wh-" Allen was interrupted.

You must bridge the gap between the two worlds.

"What the hell?" the American jumped, shocked and confused.

"I'm guessing you just did." Matt replied before moving closer along the wall, closer towards the mirror that had been placed there.

"When did you mirror start emitting heat?" the Canadian asked, his violet eyes furrowed.

"Wait what?" Allen wondered stepping beside his brother. The whispery voices in the back of his head vanished.

"The voices just st-!" Matt was mid sentence when he was pulled into the mirror, Allen seconds behind him. The two letting out shouts and grunts in surprise, before everything went black.

Flávio had been rearranging the furniture in the lounge room of his and Luciano's shared house, when he heard the strange voice.
