Chapter twenty-one:A horrific reflection

_____________________________________________________

"You feeling okay Pip?" Damien asked when Pip arrived to school, who was really fucked up at the moment, the boy had eyebags and a bruise on his right cheek. Pip nodded and hugged Damien, who immediately pulled away "What the fuck is wrong with you're parents?! I know for a fact that this was them!" he yelled carefully hovering his hand over Pips bruise "Ever since the incident of breaking my wrist they've been getting more rough with me, Mainly because their losing money due to the hospital bill" Pip said hugging himself lazily.

Damien sighed before grabbing Pips hand and walking him to class. When the two arrived there was a folded piece of paper on Pips desk, Pip sat down and stared at it for a bit alongside Damien who stood next to Pips desk. Nervously, Pip opened it up and saw a colored pencil drawing of a small white bunny with a halo and angel wings, that was playing in a garden. The boys calmed down after they saw what the drawing was, Pip smiled as he thought the bunny having angel wings was adorable.

The rest off class went on and it was now lunchtime, Damien held Pips hand protectively as he walked him to the lunchroom considering his parents weren't feeding him. "So maybe we should call the cops on your parents, since they're being assholes" Damien suggested as he ate his food "Damien as much as I would love being away I don't want to go back to the shelter,it was way worse for me there" Pip replied before taking a sip of his drink.

Damien frowned "Well what if you run away?" he asked making Pip roll his eyes "It's already bad enough that YOU ran away, but we're only eight years old, we very much won't survive being in the run" Pip said lazily rubbing his head "I guess so.." Damien sighed as he finished his food "I gotta go to the bathroom but I don't wanna leave you alone" He said collecting his trash "Oh well I can come along" Pip said wrapping up the leftover scraps and trash as well.

"Well last time you used the bathroom here you got ur hand busted" Damien said before walking to the trash can and throwing away his garbage, Pip got up and threw his trash away as well "Well it technically wasn't the bathroom, it was at the stairwell" he said putting his arms behind his back as he walked.

Damien thought and then nodded to himself "I guess so, but you better stay in the bathroom and not leave until I do" he said reaching back and grabbing Pips hand to hold. The two walked into the restroom and Damien immediately started using the urinal, Pip looked in the mirror and brushed his hair out with his hands. "Do you think I would look good with brown hair?" Pip asked while admiring himself in the mirror (great expectations reference lol😝) Damien laughed softly as he zipped up his pants and started washing his hands.

"You always look good no matter what but I heard blonde hair is really hard to get back after dying it darker" he said while yawning. Pip giggled as he turned on the water and wet his hands to brush his hair "Yes it is but I was just saying hypothetically" when Pip looked back up to the mirror he was not expecting what he saw.

‼️TW:GORE/BLOOD/HORRIBLE INJURIES EL oH EL💀‼️

The reflection in the mirror was a bloody, ripped apart, decaying version of him that looked like something from a Steven king novel. Pips eyes were gouged out, and dark blood was practically a waterfall out of his mouth, along with large scratches that ripped through his face and any visible skin. The chest was drenched in blood and rips in the skin, with a huge carved hole in the center of the stomach, and his legs were chewed up to the point where it showed a bit of bone under the bleeding flesh.

Pip shrieked and jumped back closing his eyes, Damien quickly turned to the distressed boy and ran to console him. "Pip what the fuck happened?! Are you okay?!" he yelled putting one hand on Pips shoulder and the other a little bit above his elbow. After two minutes of panicking, Pip calmed down which Damien hugged him after. Pip hugged back and carefully looked forward at the mirror, his reflection was back to normal.

But he was of course still scared,not just of the hallucination that just happened. Many things have been going wrong lately, Estella coming back, him breaking his rist, his parents becoming more violent, and now he was seeing things. Pip was scared of what was happening now, and scared of what was to come.
