She woke up alone, in silence, while a headache was lurking in her mind. She was aware that she was in a new place she had bever been before as she couldn't recognize a thing. She tried to make out any shape out of the darkness engulfing the room, but she failed.

The fact that there was no sound either was making shivers go down her spine. No animals, no breathing, not even a sign of human activity around her. She knew, though, she was safe, as if there was something at the back of her mind making her feel that way. I must have gone crazy, she thought. There is no way I can feel safe here, right now. But in fact, she did. She did feel safe enough to even lay down on the platform she was while looking at the ceiling. After a while, she decided to get up and investigate, as her eyesight got used to the darkness.

She left the platform and looked around her, only taking notice of the strange mirror placed in front of her just now. She neared it and saw nothing. It was completely blank, as if she was not standing right there: her reflection wasn't in the mirror. Intrigued by this, she started to look around for any other object in the room. She waved them infront of the mirror to see that none of them appeared reflected. The only exception were the platform she was in before and the wardrobe beside it. Intrigued by this, she decided to investigate.

She started to get near; every step was nerve wrecking, as if she was just about to unveil one of the biggest mysteries of all times... She got in front of the wardrobe and was just about to open it when the door to the room she was in bursted open.
