I. Mirror Mirror

The soft notes of the sleek grand piano echoed through the deserted halls. Darkness shrouded the room. And yet, there she sat. No light. Just the sounds of her graceful fingers hitting each of the unique keys.

Suddenly, she stood up. The bittersweet sounds of the instrument halted. She walks to the other side of the room and looks into a large mirror covering most of the wall.

" I know that you're watching me. Why don't you just let me rest? My hands hurt. " She spoke. Seemingly to her own reflection. But, a few moments later, she received a response. A woman's voice echoes through the room on a speaker.

"Now now number eight. You know just as well as I do that we can't let you out until you have finished your set for the day. " The voice replied in an all too sweet tone. The woman spoke again.

" Oh come now number eight. Only three more songs. That's not that much; is it?"

" All of you people are the same! You have no idea what it's like to be forced to be in this wretched system!!" The girl now identified as number eight spoke to the voice on the speaker.

" Oh I think we do. You seem to have forgotten number eight. We created this 'wretched system' you keep going on about. ". The woman on the speaker replied.

What number eight did next surprised everyone, including herself. She ran at full speed towards the opposite wall and smashed her dainty fist into the smooth black granite. Bits and pieces of the structure flew recklessly in all directions, as she ran out of the large hole and down a long white hallway. Her knee length white dress blending in almost completely with this new change of setting.

Eight's waist length, soft brown locks, floating delicately behind her as she ran at full force. But alas, her speed decreased as well as her stamina, and she made the brutal mistake of stopping to catch her breath. Then, all she could see was black, as she heard a faint ringing sound slowly increasing in volume...

Ring...
Ring...
Ring...

" SHUT UP YOU STUPID PIECE OF MODERN TECHNOLOGY!!!!!! "

"Nodoka ! Stop yelling at your alarm and get up! You're going to be late for school!!"
