Mirror Mirror On The Wall

Short spooky story

Chapter 1:

Halloween

Katherine POV:

Today was the day I hated the most, it was Halloween. I was so relieved when the trick or treat had stopped, and there was no more knocking on my door. Everything about Halloween was disturbing. All those legends and stories people say happens every Hallows Eve, is bullshit. They are just stories invented by people who had nothing better to do with their lives, I thought to myself.

Relieved, that night I went to the bathroom, to get ready for bed. Brushing my teeth I had admired my reflection in the mirror I smiled, but my reflection didn't. My smile turned into fear and horrifying scream. My heart was beating loud and fast. I ran out the bathroom and headed to the stairs, my feet got caught with each other and next thing I know I was rolling down the stairs. There was a dreadful pain in my ankle that was unbearable, so I tried my best to crawl to the door. Just when I was about to reach for the door handle, a little girl covered in blood with her hair in her face appeared. She screamed and i screamed along with her. Afterwards when everything was silent, with a creepy voice she had said "one, two...three, four...five, six...seven, eight... nine, ten." "i had heard a person say those number the exact way she did, before when i was a child", i whispered to myself. As she came closer my heart was beating louder, and louder, and louder by the minute, I felt it was going to burst out of my body. I closed my eyes telling myself this isn't real, it's just a dream. I felt the cold hands of the little girl grab me, my heart skipped a beat, every terrifying feeling I had ever had come together as one.

I felt her breath on my face, my eyes where shut so hard I couldn't see anything but pitch black. Then after I didn't feel her hands holding me, or her breath on my face. I was so scared to open my eyes, but I did.

When I opened them the little girl came walking towards me and sang with the numbers she said before, i was scared but also puzzled."1, 2 the truth hides with in you, 3, 4 everything you've seen before...." As she sang the song, she got closer and her appearance was changing. "..5, 6 you're on my list, 7, 8 can't change the game..." I felt the energy that was within this walls, it was a bad presences. But i couldn't stop thinking of what that song meant, i know that i have heard it before and where i heard it, i said in my inner thoughts, but i couldn't put a finger on it. When i look back at the little girl, she changed completely.

She wasn't a little girl anymore, it didn't even look human. "..9, 10 never sleep again." When it was done singing it stood their looking at me, its whole eye turned black.

It came walking towards me with a smile. I was so scared, I thought that I was never going to be able to see my friends and family ever again. Right at that moment when I thought I was gone for good, I wake up screaming.

I took a deep breath sitting in the couch relieved that it was only a dream. I was sweating like a person who works at warehouse with no air conditioner. i must have fallen asleep watching scary movies,i thought.i changed the channel quickly and put cartoons to brighten the mood. i was scared to get up, but i got my act together and grew some balls, and I got up to check if any one was home. No one was home, the house was empty and quiet. Too quiet. After checking the house out I went back upstairs to use the bathroom. I took a quick shower and brushed my teeth, but when I was walking out the bathroom I felt someone or something was watching me.
