The three of us run over to the well. It's a few blocks from my house, but our energy doesn't cease to exist. I tripped over a rock and scraped my face.

"Ally are you okay?" Talia asks. I get up right away and keep running. I've been waiting for this moment my whole life.

We arrived at the well after fifteen minutes of running. I grasp onto the rope attatched to the bucket and pull it up with all my might. I take a sip from the bucket and freeze. Once Talia and DJ both do we just stand there frozen. All of a sudden, everything went black.

I opened my eyes and I was in a bright white room filled with endless bouquets of flowers. The smell of vanilla filled the room. Every step I took felt slower and slower, as if
I was in a living dream. I walked over to a tall, elegant woman who was facing the wall at the end of the room.

"Excuse me," I say, tapping her shoulder. "Where exactly am I?" I ask
The woman turns around and I see Ghalia, the stunning goddess.

"Jump into the well with your friends. Goodbye." Was all that she said to me. Everything went black again. Once I opened up my eyes the three of us jumped into the well. We weren't sure what we were expecting, but once we got down into the water, the sand was glowing. We noticed that it was a trail. It led to a pile of lose rocks.

"Do we seriously have to dig that far under?" DJ asks.

"Yes." I say

"But my hair!" DJ whines

"Oh shut up. We'll help you find your husband as long as you help us." Talia says.

After a long silence, DJ goes, "He better be frickin' attractive, or else I'm gonna be pissed."

We submerged ourselves under the water and dug through the rocks with all of our might. Once we got them all out of the way we swam through the hidden passage that was covered by them. I hit a trap door above us and climbed up. We were in a pub filled with thugs. Naturally, DJ screeched but none of the thugs cared.

"Quest?" One of them asked.
I nodded.
"Go right ahead there ma'am." Another one said, holding open a door. We walked outside and we were in a forest. My necklace began to heat up. I knew we were getting close.
