The Murderous Mirror Pt.13
Annabelle
1:55 pm -
¨I guess here goes nothing” looking in the mirror she felt queasy and uneasy.
¨Ẅhat are we even looking for a full embodied person to come through the mirror¨
¨I don't know? Maby?¨
¨Well here goes nothing¨
They turned off the lights and had a candle lit on the counter of the sink. Behind them was a shower with the curtain open and a toilet. They stood there staring at their reflections.
The mirror where they once saw their faces perfectly now looks as dark as a shadow with a slight light shining from the candle at the base of their shoulders ending at their necks and only a mere outline of their faces. Ben started to feel goosebumps on the back of his neck and arms. But when he turned to look there wasn't anything in the shower instead there was a shadow of a hand reaching from behind annabelle headed for the candle on the counter.
¨Did you see that!¨
¨What!?¨
¨There was a hand that came from behind you Annabelle and was reaching for the counter!¨
Then the mirror turned to life, vibrant with color like a TV. When the mirror sparked to life They saw Annabelle in the restaurant that had been run down for years. Annabelle was hiding behind a red ripped booth while a Man in a black trench coat with black dress shoes on and a pocket watch was calling Annabelles last name. And then all the sudden Luna wanted to touch the mirror. When she touched it, it was like changing the channel and they saw her mother. Begging for her life, with chains as constraints keeping her a prisoner to the wall.
Then the mirror turned back to Annabelle and the man in the trenchcoat. The man looked straight at the mirror and then they saw the hand gliding towards the counter to put the candle out. When it did the mirror turned back to a normal mirror the shower curtain was now closed and the lights were on.
They both stood there shocked and confused about what they had just witnessed. Both Ben and Luna believed in a lot of things like the supernatural. But this was something they had seen before their own eyes and still couldn't believe it.
“What was that?” Ben asked
“I don’t know” Walking out of the bathroom to sit on the bed
“Should we take a look at the postcard?” Gesturing towards the table.
They both got off the bed to look at the rest of the items that were included in the box. When Luna picked up the postcard she noticed it wasn’t one at all. It was a photo of a man in a stretcher with a neck brace taped to a piece of paper. When she flipped it over it read - Hello there Luna, I would like to inform you to stop trying to help your friend, stop trying to save her so it wont work I promise you. But just so we can keep this arrangement, you know that man you saw last night coming from the ambulance doesn't the photo all the sudden look familiar. I'll give you one last thing. Look in your pocket! - She reached into the front pockets of her jeans and pulled out another piece of paper. It had a name and a room number.
“Ben we have to leave now”
“I will drive and you can read this” Handing the post card over to him
When they were walking to the car it had just begun to rain making the tears on her face invisible. When in the car she rushed to get to the hospital nearly 2 hours away. Hoping that visiting hours were still happening.
4:45 pm - They ran into the hospital and asked the lady at the front desk with the name tag of ms. Sandra if they could go to room 113.
"Are you related to the patient"
[Narrator]
Another moment where Luna could lie and hope to come out clean. Or she could tell the truth and hope that the woman is understanding and allows them to see him. But would she belive the truth. Just like in the police station I think Luna has made her decision.
Luna
"Yes I am Samuels sister and this is our brother"
"Okay well visiting hours close in about 30 minutes"
"Okay thankyou"
They started walking towards the room but then they saw an older looking woman. Probably in her mid fortys based on the little wrinkles around her eyes. It must be Samuels mother. Luna and Ban waited behind the corner for her to leave. When she finally walked out the front door they entered the room. The room was white with the bed in the middle of the room and the bathroom in front with a chair next to the bed for visitors. He was laying in the bed with a full body cast and his face barely recognizable.
"I'm so...rr.y" her voice quivering while staring at his face
"What…. I… ummm uhhh?" Said the man
Then everything went dark. The man disappeared into the darkness and so did everything else. Ben's face and the chair we're she had just thought she saw a glimpse of something sitting in the chair. But maybe her eyes were just seeing an illusion in the shadows of the dark.
