Duchess From Hell

47

It was dark and solemn. She can't see nor hear anything. She just found herself walking in a pitch-dark abyss.

"Where am I?"

She asked herself, unsure of the direction she was taking.

She roamed her eyes around but all she could see was darkness. She can't even see her own hands, her dress and body.

She's been walking. She can't feel tiredness so she keep on walking, not wanting to be stuck in an endless darkness.

Nahinto siya sa paglalakad ng makita ang tanging nagliliwanag na salamin sa hindi kalayuan.

It was shining but not enough to light its surrounding.

With utmost curiousity, she walked near the mirror. She thought it was something special but she can't even see her reflection from the glass.

Itinaas niya ang kamay upang hawakan ang salamin. The moment her fingers brush at the reflective surface of the glass, an image of horrifying memories played like a movie in the mirror.

She watched all of them. Her hands fisted unknowingly because of the hurrifying scene and a strong and massive hatred and vengeance sprung to life within the organ hiding behind her ribcage.

She wasn't her. Those were'nt her memory. Those were not what she experienced, but as she pay attention at the every details of the pain they gave her, it felt like she drip down her own eventful memory lane.

Then the scene changes.

A woman appear in the mirror, wearing a red velvet gown.

Her long pitch black hair were cascading down her chest and back.

Her orange eyes were begging, a reflective of abuse and miseries she have live through.

"Anna." She muttered.

The woman in the mirror smile in response.

"Ana."

There's no mistaking, they look a twin raised from different world.

Seeing her, is like watching herself though their eyes were the only difference among their visual similarities.

By why is she seeing her?

Bakit nagpakita ang taong may ari ng katawang inuukupa niya ngayon?

"A-are you finally going t-to...take back...your body?"

She's a sinner. She's a killer. Pero hindi siya sakim upang agawin ang buhay na mayroon ang iba. But the thought of Anna, the owner of the body she is possessing to finally take what's rightfully hers, somehow scared her. Not because she'll die but because it means living him.

The person she cared for and the only person she's afraid of letting go.

She can't bear to live the Duke. Zealand have become her life that she's ready to kill for, even innocent.

Ngumiti si Anna habang nakatingin sa kanya na para bang isang kalukuhan ang kanyang itinanong.

"If I wanted to, I already did."

Nangunot ang noo ni Ana.

"I...am still the vessel. I am just living deep inside your conciousness without you knowing."

"So all along, you heared and saw everything I am doing?"

Nakapikit na tumango si Anna.

"Everything. Even the noise you are making every night inside the chamber with the duke."
