Jinx felt so disoriented, and she couldn't help but stare at the image in the mirror. Her glowing pink eyes had been one of the most unexpected changes, one that she definitely wasn't a fan of.
She continued to stare at her reflection, feeling more and more detached from herself as she saw just how different her appearance became. She felt like a living ghost, the essence of what used to be her had dimmed almost completely, all that remained was this, this...creature.
Her hands gripped the mirror tightly, and she felt so disconnected from herself, like she was looking at a complete stranger.
"Fuck this shit, was it really necessary?!" she groans in frustration and asks out loud, even though there was no one else in the room with her.
She didn't even recognise herself anymore. First, she couldn't concentrate in a fight, and she missed all her shots. All of them! She never missed a shot before. What did that little man do to her mind?? And now, she had a new pair of eyes! What else was there left of her??
This was never what she wanted; it's not what any of this was supposed to be.
She felt so disgusted with herself and the life she was trapped in; she was supposed to be a simple kid, supposed to have fun and enjoy her youth while life was still innocent and the world was still good.
"This isn't me," she hissed, " Damn it, what the fuck did they do to myself??!!"
In a blink, another figure appears in the image of the mirror, "Ha, at least now you can really call yourself a monster!" the ghost of Mylo doesn't miss the chance to piss her off.
"Shut up, I'm in no mood!!" She barked back at him, her face scrunched up and her voice strained.
The mirror reflected both her pink eyes and Mylo's ghost, reminding her of the path she had been forced to take and all the things she had been turned into.
But he didn't stop there, why would he??
" Youuu messed up biggg timee, sister!! With no gemstone, and now a whole new pair of glowing eyes that only show the monster you are. You really thought he came back for you, didn't you? Well guess what, he was there only to get your sister escape back to the Topside, alongside with that enforcer who took your place.." he continued, laughing at her like a maniac.
"Shut up!!! Just SHUT UP!" she shouted, throwing the mirror from her hands and smashing it into a thousand pieces.
Jinx's hands were shaking uncontrollably, her breathing grew heavier and faster, and she was doing everything she could to stay calm, but it wasn't working. No matter how hard she tried, the overwhelming emotions she felt within her were taking over. She grabbed herself and started digging her nails in her flesh, as blood started running out.
She was furious, upset, disappointed in herself, and she didn't know what to do in this situation; a thousand thoughts raced through her mind, and she wanted to scream them out.
"I just need to think, " she said to herself, trying to calm down
"What is there to think?" Mylo was now teleported in front of her, "I warned you about that boy. He left you again just how he left you the first time. "
"Liar," she spat, her words were nothing but a mess of anger and frustration that had piled up inside her for years, and she had taken the opportunity to let it out on him.
Her breath came in heavy, raspy breaths as she struggled to compose herself and find a semblance of clarity, "H-he, he... He had to leave, he was left with no other choice!" she tried to convince herself,
