Chapter Two - Hveðr Ungr

(I said do you speak my language, he just smiled and gave a Vegemite sandwich. AND HE SAID ICOME FROM A LAND DOWN UNDe..r…. oh your back. Well ummm, when we last saw our hero she was gruesomely turned to dust before being pulled into a large purple vortex. She could be perfectly safe, injured or dead… or right over there, waking up from unconsciousness.)

'Ow, my everything hurts... it feels like my body was ripped apart then stomped on by a herd of elephants' Olivia thought as she awoke suddenly to the painful throbbing radiating over every part of her body 'what happened? Why am I in so much pain?'.

'The last thing I remember was turning to dust and being sucked into… a purple vortex.' Her mind struggled to cope at the absurdity of what happened to her, a headache quickly forming to add to her already hurt body.

'How's that ... even possible' she had only seen things like this happen in movies and books, never real life! Olivia's head was pounding painfully as she come to the realization of the monumental impossibility of the situation she was in.

Opening up her eyes slowly she hissing out in pain when they hadn't adjusted in time and they were savagely assaulted by a bright white light. She had to blink and rub her eyes a couple times to finally get used to this overly aggressive light.

When she finnaly did get used to the light she quickly look around herself, it took her a second to realise that yes she was sitting in a large white expanse that seemed to go on forever, and no her eyes weren't broken and she wasn't blind.

She sat up as soon as her body would permit her to move, she rubbed her throbbing head while groaning in pain.

"what hap... cough! cough!" she tried to talk but her throat was dry and sore, almost like she hadn't talked in a long time. Without any water all she could do was try and swallow any non-existent spit to try and clench her thirst.

"Where.. a-am I?" Olivia mumbled out loud in a croaky voice while looking around, not possibly thinking this was real and suddenly had an idea of what was happening to her.

"I must be dreaming" She croaked out in a daze as she looked straight up, using a hand to rub her sore throat as she looked at the…'sky'? Just saying those words out loud started to release some of the stress and tension that she was building up due to her strange circumstances.

She looked down at the ground and nearly jumped out of her skin, there was no floor... or anything to indicate she was even sitting on a floor other then the the fact she was touching the floor.

'This is too weird... I can feel the floor but I can't see it' she thought as she experimentally poked the floor with her hand. Olivia watched as her hand hit the floor, it felt cool to the touch and smooth like kitchen tiles.

Ignoring for the moment of how weird this dream of her was. She started to get up slowly her legs shaking and protesting the whole way up, once standing up straigh she was quicklyassulted by pins and needles running up and down her legs.

She stumbled for a bit before managing to catch her balance, she had to take a quick breather as the act of standing up had almost winded her.

"Just a very vivid and realistic dream" she mumbled to reassure herself. Once she had gotten her breathing back to normal she started looking around herself trying to find... well anything, or if there was some indication of what to do or where to go.

But there was nothing...

Suddenly she started to shake her head, as if to get out of a daze she might be in. 'Ok, this is the most impressive dream I have ever had' Olivia thought to herself, 'but I think it's time to wake up now'.

She then went and did the most cliche thing anyone stuck in a dream would do... she pinched her arm really hard.

"OUCH!" she exclaimed loudly, rubbing the afflicted area trying to lessen the pain.

As the pain went away and a red mark started to form. Olivia started to cough after having used her voice so suddenly and harshly.

After her coughing had trailed off a sudden pressure on her left shoulder made her squeal like a pig and she fall to the floor, almost like her legs had betrayed her and turned to jelly. A weird cold, jiggly sensation in her legs made her look down and gasp in shock.

Her legs

had literally

turned to

jelly…!

Green see through, jiggly jelly. Olivia was left mouth agape, gasping like a fish out of water with eyes wide in shock.

"HAahhahahahahahahaha, the look on your face is priceless haha hahaha" The laughter made her look up...

There was a person...Who was laughing at her. "You should really close your mouth, ~your gonna catch flies~" The person said in a sing-song voice.

It was a man... who was wearing a long black cloak that covered his entire body. 'He looks like the silly cartoon figure in the ad' Olivia thought dumbly to herself, not fully processing the situation she was in quite yet.

"HEY! It's not silly... I drew that myself" The man said in a whiny tone, crossing his arms and tapping his feet like an impatient toddler.

'Di..did he, just read my mind?' Olivia thought while looking at the man more closely, noticing the deep green eyes weighing down on her.

"Yes, yes I did" the man said in a matter of factly tone. Disbelief and shock rushed through Olivias body 'this isn't a dream… it's a NIGHTMARE?'. "Hey~~ not so loud I'm right here you know" the man said as he waved a disappointing finger at her.

"What's going on, who are you and.. and why are my legs jelly!" Olivia said her voice steadily got louder and louder as she finnaly reached hysteria.

"Alright, alright... don't get your knickers in a twist!" the man said while putting one hand one his hips and the other pointing at her legs. Suddenly as if magic Olivia legs where slowly turning back to normal again, she can feel the bone, muscle, and blood replace the jelly.

She could also see her school shorts turn back to normal too... even though they did feel a little wet and sticky after the tranformation finished. As soon as the transformation was done she pushed herself away from the man leaving a good distance between the two of them.

"Rude" the man said childishly, "I just turned you back to normal and this is the thanks I get? Ah the world has really done down hill hasn't it" the man shook his head in apparent dissapointment.

"You're probably the one who turned them into jelly in the first place! Who are you... what are you... and how did you do that?!" Olivia asks, fear finally taking hold of her as she realized what he had done.

She didn't want to get closer just in case he would do something worse. "Well my name is Hveðr Ungr or if it's easier in your language, Heyvif Young, and I already know yours.. Olivia" Hveðr said taking a step closer to her, Olivia once again scooted back a bit.

Hveðr let out an annoyed sigh "would you stop that, I'm not going to hurt you. I've gotta take you to the sanctum" he said while closing the gap between them and lifting Olivia up on her feet. "Hey!" Olivia gasped out in shock.

Heyvif began walking in a seemingly random direction dragging Olivia by the forearm. "What sanctum," She asks slightly trembling in Hveðr's grasp but still being able to keep in time with his fast pace. He suddenly took a sharp right turn.

"Ugh.." Hveðr groans out in an irritated tone. "The universal sanctum.. its, don't worry we are almost there." he did a full turn and started walking in the opposite direction from where he was heading before, while also quickening his pace. Olivia blinked in confusion and was also barely able to keeping up with the mad man.

"you can let go of my arm now I can walk on my own you know" She said while pulling her arm free from Hveðr's iron grip. Even though Hveðr was facing away from Olivia she could practically feel his eye roll, "no matter" he said dismissively while suddenly stopping "we are here".

'...'

Olivia looked around the massive white expanse... still nothing and no one other than them in sight."Sorry to disappoint, but there is nothing here" she said while moving her arms around her, motioning to the empty expanse around them.

"Hmm, humans so simple minded" he said turning around suddenly and bringing his hand up near Olivia's face and snapped his fingers in a dramatic fashion to reveal a set of marble double doors, which suddenly appeared behind Hveðr.

Olivia's jaw slowly opened in amazement. "~ Want did I say about closing your mouth Olivia~ " he sings out, turning on his heels before walking through the massive door which seemed to swing open for him automatically and close behind him.

'Should I go in?' Olivia thinks to herself still not one hundred percent certain she should trust this mysterious guy 'I feel like I'm losing my mind, What else am I gonna do there is nothing out here and if this is a dream I might as well play along and go insi...'.

"heaheamm",

"Ahhh! stop doing that!" Olivia exclaims as she sees Hveðr suddenly appearing in front of her, Heyvif managing to scare her... for only a second.

"I will think about it but I probably won't stop, well? Come on then!" he grabbed Olivia's arm again and pulled her inside. "Stop manhandling me!" she yells out as she is pulled through the doors.

Once through the massive doors slammed shut, and disappeared from existence once again.
