Alter Ego ✔️

Chapter One

Mark's POV

"Mark......" I heard a voice say inside my head. "Mark....." it repeated. "I know you can hear me!" 

"Ugh!" I yell as I approach the mirror my reflection staring right back at me as it began to change. Just as it changed staring back at me was my alter ego. The thing that has always been inside of me, it's brown hair and dark eyes looking like a demon. His suit was as dark as his hair and his eyes. "What do you want!" My alter ego, Darkiplier looked back at me with an evil cackle and smiled. 

"You can't keep me locked away Mark," he said "You know I'll always find a way to come back," 

"Oh how could I not forget?" I say as I looked at him. "I regret ever letting you take control," 

"That's no way to treat family," 

"We're not family! Your just my evil manipulative side," 

"You think that keeping me at bay by ignoring me will help your cause?" it continued "You have no idea what I have planned," 

I roll my eyes as this was always what happened to me on certain times. Sometimes I find that I'm arguing with myself. However, no one can know about my alter ego, my fans think that darkiplier was just me being creepy. Though, it's even worse, this thing in the mirror staring back at me was real. I had felt like Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde, I didn't want anyone to worry about me nor did I want anyone to get hurt.

"I know what your planning Dark," I said "I am not going to let you through so you can separate yourself from me..." 

"I will find a way to do that," he said "I only need one other person," he finished "So you are going to let me control you,"

Ignoring him, I dyed my hair with red hair dye and made my way into the living room where I put on my pants and a shirt. Then I grabbed my keys and made my way out to my car. Climbing in, I started driving into Los Angeles thoughts running through my mind as I decided to go and get some food. 

Sam's POV

It was a normal day as I was heading into Los Angeles and drive to the Panda Express. My name is Sam Golbach and I have blonde hair and blue eyes. I'm a YouTuber who practically hunts the paranormal. As I park the car by the Panda express restaurant, I saw another car a black toyota pull up in front of me. I looked over and saw a man who looks to be in his early thirties. Shrugging my shoulders I walked into Panda and ordered some food, I then paid for it and brought my food to a table. As I sat down, the man also entered the restaurant, his hair was brown and red and he was wearing jeans and a plain white t-shirt.

The guy looked very familiar as I felt like I had seen him somewhere before. He ordered his food and walked over to my table. 

"Excuse me?" says the man, boy did he sound familiar.... Where had I seen him before? "may I sit down?" 

"Sure," I said casually. He pulled out a chair and sat his food down. We ate in awkward silence for a little bit before I decided to break the silence as I didn't know who he was or why he sat in front of me. "I'm sorry, but who are you?" I continued "You look familiar," 

"My name is Mark Fischbach," he said "I'm a gamer," 

"Are you by any chance a YouTuber also?" 

"As a matter of fact, I am," 

"That's amazing! I'm a YouTuber also," 

"Well then do you mind if I ask who you are?" 

"My name is Samuel John Golbach," I said "But my friends call me Sam," 

"It's nice to meet you Sam, so what do you do?" 

"My best friend Colby and I run a duo channel called Sam and Colby," I finished "We hunt for ghosts," 

Dark's POV

Mark thinks he's so brave but what he doesn't realize is that I'm getting stronger by the minute. Even now he struggles to stay in control, when he walked into the restaurant I briefly took control after he ordered and made my way over to a blonde kid who was vaguely familiar. He might have been a YouTuber like Mark. All I had to do was figure out who he was and what he did.

"I'm a YouTuber myself," says the kid whose name was Sam "My best friend Colby and I run a duo channel called Sam and Colby," he said "We hunt for ghosts," 

Ghosts? Interesting, this kid might have an evil side; I wished I could control Mark but the only time I'm able to control his body is when he was asleep. If I could stay silent and listen a little more I may find a way to pull out Sam's alter ego as well. I know that most people had to have an alter ego. Jacksepticeye had Antisepticeye (whom by the way is annoying), and Mark had me. This ghost hunter could have an alter ego, and an evil one at that....

As the conversation continued I found out he had a girlfriend named Kat and two siblings named Allison and Ben. The kid was also from Kansas which might even work. As I listened I heard Mark say something. "Hang on a second Sam, I'm going to be right back," 

what was Mark doing? I saw Mark stand up and walk to the family bathroom. He locked the door and turned toward the mirror, the minute he did, I appeared. 

"I know what your doing Dark," 

"What are you talking about Mark?" 

"I heard your thoughts, you think that you can use Sam as a way of giving yourself a body," 

"Not so much as a body my friend," I said with an evil smirk "More like....a way for me to create my own body." I finished. "As a matter of fact, I have a plan and it involves that kid."

"Don't you dare harm him," says Mark "He's just a kid," 

"Oh you have no idea what I'm capable of," Mark began to look mad as he glared at me through the mirror, however, he heard a knock on the bathroom door. Stepping away from the mirror, he walked over to the door and opened it. Standing at the door was none other than Sam Golbach himself. 

"Is everything okay?" 

"Yeah," says Mark "Everything is fine," Mark walked out and made his way to the table. 

"I should probably go now," he says. I knew he was going to be eager to get out of there. 

"Oh," says Sam as he handed Mark a slip of paper with writing on it. It was the guys number and twitter. Mark gave his phone number to Sam as well as his twitter. After that, he left and got into the car and drove back to his house.
