You are I

I was flabbergasted, the one in the mirror was laughing, or was I laughing? Either way the laugh that I was hearing was mine, I touched my face but my reflection didn’t do the same as I in the mirror, actually, it was approaching me with a subtle smile, I could only twist in the corner trying to scream, when me of the mirror was touching the glass it created waves like if it was water, I couldn’t stop looking, I cover my eyes with my eyes and I crouched down

—No, this can’t be real, this can’t be happening…

I was repeating to myself the same words, I was trembling in fear, my breathing was heavy, and I wanted to puke again, I didn’t want to open my eyes, I didn’t want to move.

—This is just a bad dream, a nightmare, c’mon, when I open my eyes I will be in another place, I will be in the castle, I will be resting.

I opened my eyes in an instant at the same time I got up off the floor, and when I saw the mirror, there was nothing on it. I approached slowly and I could just see myself this time, I smiled and turned back to get out of the bathroom.

—Where are you going, crybaby?

—Huh?

I saw myself in the door of the bathroom, he was extending his hand but I was taking steps back, I was getting corner by myself until I hit the window, I look down and saw a big fall, but there was something more, there were things that I couldn’t distinguish down, I froze for a few seconds until I hear myself again.

—There’s no other way, jump

—Jump

—Jump

—No don’t jump

—If he doesn’t jump he is going to be killed

—If he jumps he will die!

—SHUT UP!

I scream, I could hear people talking at me, different tones of voices, different people, but no one stopped, the hand of myself was getting close and close, I didn’t want to find out what will happen to me if it touches me so I crouched down again and run to the door, hitting it and falling a few centimeters out of it, that was maybe the best outcome that could possibly happen, the floor of the main lobby was gone, there was a giant hole in it, the stairs were long and continue in the ceiling the patterns were changed to, everything had a chess pattern, the ceiling, the floor, the stairs.

Not only that but the lighting was significantly changed too, everything had this weird faint purple lighting.

I look back and didn’t see anyone, but I didn’t feel safe at all, this place just got really weird, and just when I look in front, there was myself, lying down in the floor with his hands in the chicks, looking me with a smile, I try to get up fast but something stopped me

—Crybaby~

A whisper that made me get up for real this time, running upstairs, the color was changing too, passing from the faint purple to an annoying yellow. I could hear the laugh behind me as I was running along with the same voices from before

—He really is a crybaby

—Poor thing

—That was really scare

—What a baby

—Don't give him the right

—Shut it

—ALL OF YOU SHUT UP NOW!

I was running on the ceiling stairs trying not to get caught by myself, the voices didn’t help me at all, they just made me more anxious since they didn’t want to stop. I was about to reach the edge of it and when I did, the color if the lighting change one more time, now it was dark blue, there were more stairs to climb but now I could see the ending that led to a hallway

I keep running trying to ignore everyone that could stop me, or be annoying, when I reach the final step, everything change to a dark red, I saw the giant corridor moving around slowly, but there wasn't time to be impressed, I keep running and saw behind me, I did not lose myself, I was following me behind and it was better than I at traveling across the hallways, while I lose my balance and tend to fall on my knees, myself was walking without problem, like if it was his own domain, and when I thought I could lose him when there was a spin that make me hit the wall, I was upside down in the ceiling, that thing look like if it had glue in the feet.

Finally I reach one door and close it with the keys, I breathe heavily while I was leaning on the door with looking without seeing anything, I could hear the hits on the door, I close my eyes and after a few minutes the knocks stopped, I open my eyes again carefully, and I didn’t see anything, I sigh in relief and look around.

—He finally noticed

—This guy is so slow

—Is here, is here

—Good, I was getting bored or watching him just run

This time I didn’t respond to the voices, I had no idea how they were able to see me, but there were more important things to do right now, figure it out a way to get out of the mansion, but before that, I notice the room, this was the room where I was the first night I pass here, I started to look around and look the bookshelves nothing in this room was affected by the things that happened in the main lobby

—Is this a safe room?

—Yes

—No

—Perhaps

—Maybe

—FOOL

—I didn’t ask to you all…

I was getting already getting annoyed, I sit down on the chair and look at the window, if this was really a safe room, I would take any chances, there should be something I could do to escape this place, a small smile form in my face, this is what I wanted from the start
