YOU
"I'm your loyal servant."
My eyes widened and I walked to my wall and hit my head three times. "Yup. I'm not dreaming." I said to myself.
Just then, a golden liquid came out of the mirror and formed a shape of a human... he's covered in golden liquid though.
"You're not dreaming my child." The creature said. "Are you... Are you going to kill me?" I asked, slowly walking nearer and nearer to him.
"Why would I kill you?" He asked. I shrugged and slowly touched him but caused my finger to slip pass him. "What are you?" I asked.
"I cannot answer that." He replied. "Alright then. What are you doing here? I mean... What are you here for?" I asked. "Let me tell you why. Sit down first." He replied. I sat down on my bed and looked at him.
"A long time ago, after Queen Ravenna died along with her sister, Freya, every huntsman and huntswoman thought I was completely destroyed. They threw me in a far away forest and left me. They didn't know that day after day, I healed. One day, your adoptive father and mother came and found me. They kept me in the old attic. Until the day came, Tony, your brother placed me here. To answer your question, I'm here to show you the truth." He explained.
"But why now? Why not before?" I asked. "Because you have come of age. You were still young before. Now, you're all grown up. That's the reason why." He answered.
"Wow. Wait. You said you came here to show me the truth. What truth?" I asked. The man, or mirror rather, showed me his hand.
"Take my hand and come with me to the mirror." He offered. I bit my lip and looked at his hand. Then I thought, nothing could go wrong....right?
I accepted his hand. He slowly walked towards the mirror and went in. As his hand and body went in, my heart started to beat fast.
As my hand went in, I closed my eyes and let him at take me inside. Suddenly, it was hard to breath. I was struggling for air. I opened my eyes and held his hand tighter.
After a few seconds I jumped out of the mirror, collapsed on the floor and inhaled air. As I slowly regained my posture and stood up, I slowly realized that I was in a castle.
"What... What are we doing in a castle?!? The king and queen might find us here and kill us!" I exclaimed. "Why would they, if you're the princess?"
My body froze at what he said. "What... What do you mean?" I asked. "First of all, there is no king and queen that lives here. This is your castle after all." He explained.
I gulped and looked around. "My castle? You mean... I'm a princess? My mom and dad are the king and queen?" I asked, not believing everything that was happening.
"Yes. Your mother is non other than Queen Freya. Queen Ravenna is your aunt. They're very powerful queens indeed." He replied.
"But why? Why would my own mother abandon me? Is...is it because there's a war or a battle?" I asked. He shook his head and looked outside the window.
"Your mother thought that you were dead. She was waiting for your father to meet her at the royal garden for them to marry secretly, but then she notice that in the part of the castle, where your room is, was burning, she ran and ran to find out what happened, she froze at her place when she saw your crib burning. the tears in her eyes was merely stoppable. when she saw your father, her eyes widened. "I had no choice." your father said. That night, she knew your father burned you alive when you were still a baby. But truly, your aunt was the one who told your father to kill you. That was one reason for her to unleash her ice powers that was kept inside her for years. You lived because I saved you. Before your father can kill you, I transported myself to your adoptive parents' house and changed myself into a human to gave you to your adoptive parents." He explained.
A tear went down on my eye. I wiped it and started to walk around, with him behind me of course. "Can you give me a tour? Around the... around my castle?" I asked.
He nodded and started to tour me to the throne room, king and queen's room, the royal bathroom and everywhere else. My mouth was agape.
"Those... are all mine now?" I asked him. "Yes. But, your mother and aunt are still alive. Well... Their souls are alive." He said. My eyebrow raised.
"Where are they then?" I asked. "In the other castle. The replica of this castle. You see, this is the real one, but there's another one. A very similar one, inside the mirror. That's where they are." He replied.
"How do we get there?" I asked. "We need to go to the other side of the mirror. But we'll go there tomorrow." He said. I nodded and walked to the throne room.
I sat on the throne nervously and looked around. "Why aren't there any people here? Is this place abandoned?" I asked. "No. It's just that nobody wants to remember the horrible things that your aunt has done." He replied.
"Oh. So... This is my mother and aunt's castle?" I asked. He nodded as an answer. "Although, your mother has her own castle." He said.
"What? They don't live together?" I asked. "Once they did. But when Freya thought you died, she left this castle and made her own." He answered.
I nodded in understanding. "Can you take me there?" I asked. He nodded. "Close your eyes." He commanded. I closed my eyes and felt my background change.
When I opened my eyes, I was in a blue bed. The walls was covered in ice. "You said that my mom and aunt was powerful queens. What do you mean by that?" I asked.
He gave a long sigh and replied, "Freya, was known as the cold hearted ice queen. While Ravenna was known as the vain and greedy evil queen."
"But why am I nice then? Why am I kind? Why am I not... evil like them?" I asked "Because you're different. Do not be like them. Make your own story." He replied.
"Do... Do I have powers too?" I asked, looking at my hands. He nodded and looked away. "But you will only unleash them when you feel great anger or emotional pain." He added.
I walked outside and saw a pattern in the floor. It was like a chess pattern. I sigh and caressed my face. "Bring me back to my room please. I need time to think." I said.
He held my hand and we both entered the magic mirror which was on the wall near the bed. When we finally arrived, I looked at him with a smile.
"Thank you. For telling me the truth I've always wanted to know all my life." I said, looking at him. He nodded and walked back to the mirror.
The door suddenly opened. "Y/n, you've been here in your room all day. Aren't you going to come out and eat at least dinner?" Tony asked looking at me.
I looked at the mirror and smiled. I looked back at Tony and replied, "Nah. I'm not hungry. I'll stay here and sleep. Thanks Tony." I replied.
He gave me a weird look, whispered an 'ok' and closed the door. I sighed and jumped to my bed with a moan. "What a magical day." I whispered to myself and let the dream world take me.
