A Royal Quest: A wolf's Way Home Book 2

Chapter 19: Mirror, Mirror, Mirror

Whoa! Kate said as she looked around the inside of the mirror the dim lights made it almost clear to see what was inside it was filled with antiques tea mugs, couches, creepy dolls, and vintage DVD's however the hammock wasn't and looked like the one she saw before however the tube with the wolf wasn't in sight which was surprising if this was his hideout where was he? She looked around the painting of him and what seemed to be evil clones of Kate's friends which thankfully did not include twinkle paw, Merith or skyler she kept searching the stove was still steel iron and there was a door a rusty bloody red door with the words" Machanical station" she looked back at the mirror and proceeded to walk back through but the mirror was solid and shattered No! She said as she realized her hope of escaping was impossible she was trapped as she cried below the empty mirror. its been forever since Kate fell through the mirror and the Friends grew worried especially Bucky who paced back and fourth trying to find a good explanation for why Kate hasn't returned or even how she fell through. Whispers filled the room Mirror, mirror, mirror it said Kate looked around no one was seen she was alone but the question was where was that voice coming from was it Unknown or a voice in her head maybe a spirit all these flodded the inside of Kate's mind so she decided to open the door to the machanical station and go inside. The inside was noisy and hard to breathe a bunch of machines filled the room including the tube like canister that held Twinkle paw's evil clone still no sign of Unknown laughter and cackling was heard inside the wall as Unknown snuck behind Kate Boo! He said sneaking behind Kate. Kate growled well so you found your way through the mirror how wonderful and what do you think Kate growled again she had no intention on answering anything how do you escape Kate said Unknown laughed you broke the mirror predictable however he said there's one way but you're to dumb to figure it out Kate growled let's play the silent treatment sounds good to me he said as he looked at the tube with the clone inside almost time to open the incubator he said just in time for you to see my creation his evil laugh as he tilts his paw making a green fireball out of it as he walks closer to Kate. Bucky skyler said you've been pacing around for a long time have any ideas on what could of happened or how to help Kate Bucky stopped and smiled as he rubbed the mirror it showed Kate she was in danger uh oh! He said Unknown found Kate and it doesn't look good uh oh! The others said what do we do in all the fairytale books I've read in my childhood there was always an incantation or spell that would make an enchanted object do whatever power it conjures what incantations Merith said in Thomas and the tank engine gold dust got that acient train lady to run no gold dust here skyler said how about Snow White Merith said the wicked witch had a mirror and she used to say Mirror, Mirror on the wall who's the fairest of them all except the mirror is not on the wall Bucky said I got it skyler said Mirror, Mirror, Mirror the Friends looked at the mirror that was now glowing Bucky stepped inside woah! He said the antiques amazed him the painting sent chills down his spine the door that was slightly open was rusty and bloody he opened it and saw Kate and unknown Bucky spit a dozen glass icicles but only one got Unknown in the eye which was now twitching green Kate! Bucky said as Kate began to pass out ahh so being inside your own head takes a lot out of you something to take into account huh queen of national united city come on Kate let's go Bucky said you know what you're going to miss the best part he said as the incubator started to steam and the door opened the wolf standing there looked strikingly similar to twinkle paw instead of periwinkle it was a light purplish pink color she had a scar in shape of a star on her back left thigh she had scruffy paws and a glowing yellow eye her tail was white and she had one ear welcome Stargaze Unknown said these are your enemies now I have a mission for my bad ol ' best friend you have a doppelgänger and I need you to take care of her for me Unknown laughed sadistically as Stargaze laughed mimicking Unknown Unknown shot at the unresponsive Kate and Bucky dodged heading for the mirror as he chanted fast as he could Mirror, Mirror, mirror and Bucky raced back through the mirror Merith and skyler got up and greeted Bucky Kate started to wake up Bucky what happened Unknown trapped you but your safe now Merith Kate said slowly heading toward her she kissed Kate on her head and skyler picked her up and cuddled her and he set her down Bad news Bucky said twinkle paw's doppelgänger has been created and she's out to finish Twinkle paw for good Kate had a shock of horror on her face ok we can save her let's go to the dungeons the friends ran to the left side of the hall and opened the door to the dungeons they rushed down the stairs the door slammed behind them as torches began to come to light and an army of dragons humming a Vikings tune as they circled around them they were outnumbered that's all they knew and whether they are evil is a mystery remaining to be told
