Mks night is plauged with never ending nightmares.
Each getting more specific every time.
These were not normal dreams.
Mk had these since he was very little, of somthing just not being quite right. But recently after the defeat of azure lion they developed into somthing far more sinister.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mk rounds the corner of a mirrored hall, one quite like the one at the local seasonal carnival. Catching his reflection in each mirror they apeer sad and willowy. They say things to him.
"You always mess this stuff up" one reflection retorts.
"How can you even call yourself a person anymore" another pesters.
But in this inescapable maze mk is trapped. A hall of never ending mirrors. Mk was never fond of his reflection, especially in recent years. The further down the hall he went the more animalistic his reflections became.
"You like when others are hurt, it makes you feel powerful." One squeals
"You really are a manipulator mk..! Always making others feel bad for you when all you do is give pain to others." One chuckles
Mk closes his eyes shut and curls up on the floor trying to block it out.

                                   It doesn't work.

Mk feels the ground drop from beneath him, and he snaps awake.

The time is 4am and he's woken up every hour tonight.

"That dream..." mk thinks to himself.

He tosses and turns under his covers but he can't seem to regain peace.

in a half asleep daze mk sloshes through the night until finally the first bird of the morning calls.

hes warm, but unrested as his blanket covers him partly. The sound of stirring in the kitchen chimes. unable to get up due to his tiredness he picks up his phone and begins scrolling through his schedule. my turns over to the side only to see the mirror across his bed. 

he stares at the mirror in horror remembering his nightmare, unable to cure his unease.

interrupted he hears his door creak open.

pigsy sees mk's expression and plops down at the foot of his bed.

"hey mk you doing all right over there?" pigsy looks at mk

"of course I am pigsy!" he sighs then looks down at his feet

"I just had a strange dream is all." mk says leaning back against his bed board

"just know kid.. if there's something up you can let me know" pigsy says as he gives mk a reassuring back pat

he chuckles uncharacteristically awkward.

mk nods in agreement but his expression doesn't seem to reflect that.

pigsy decides not to pry

"well I heard moh made pancakes for everyone if your hungry" pigsy says getting up with a grunt.

"its okay im not really hungry right now" mk says squeezing his covers.

"thats okay kid.." pigy says turning around.

right before he leaves the door he turns around and offers a slight smile.
