Chapter one The Day She was running and running but she couldn’t get away! Oh no! They’re gaining on me, she thought while she willed her legs to go faster, but they refused. How was she supposed to get away? She silently cursed her legs as they refused again. “Onca!” she shouted the freeze spell at the top of her lungs while wishing she was somewhere, anywhere else. The spell just seemed to bounce off of the creatures, black, hideous creatures that chased her through the night. Like always right before it got her she awoke screaming and crying. That nightmare that always chased her through the night was gone, away forever or was it. Konya had defeated the creature that chased her through her dreams in the night. Even though she had always tried to forget it, the creature in the dark had come back; she could feel it in her bones and through her magic. She, like always, awoke with a start and lathered in sweat like a horse that has went for a ten mile gallop, and like always her grandma came running in the room as fast as her cane would let her. “Are you alright sweetie?” her grandma asked her voice filled with concern,” you look paler than other times when you have those awful nightmares. Are you sure you’re ok?” Konya got up from bed without even looking at her grandma, and she went to the bathroom with her grandma following her close behind. She looked straight into the mirror, and like always and usually, she couldn’t even see her own reflection. That was normal, but that was the only thing that she had kept from her grandma. ”Honey is there something you should tell me?” Konya had always lived with her grandma after her mom had died from giving birth. Konya had never even seen her mom, because her mom had died instantly. Konya had never forgiven her dad for running off on her mom right when he had found out her mom was pregnant with Konya. Her grandmother was sensing the anger rising in Konya, stepped back and away from her, at the exact moment the mirror burst into a million pieces and back again.” Honey, you have to learn to control this anger towards everybody.” With that Konya looked towards her and opened her fist, and about a million pieces of glass fibers fell out. Then she blacked out never to remember those last few moments with the mirror, but to remember everything else, like always.
The next day Konya looked in the mirror to fix her hair, and then she remembered that she couldn’t see her reflection. Thanks to the creature in the dark she couldn’t see her reflection. When she looked into the eyes of the creature in the dark, they burned her forever, and now she really can’t see how her reflection looked. The only way to be able for her to ever see her reflection again was for the creature in the dark to be alive again. But she looked anyway, only to discover that she could, in fact, see her reflection again. Oh no, the creature in the dark is indeed back. To think I just thought that my magic was mistaken, she thought miserably. I was so wrong. Oh well, I’ll get it sorted out later, right now I better get to breakfast if I want any. How was she supposed to know that there wasn’t going to be a later?
Her grandma was already downstairs with the oven on and the smell of food drifting silently upstairs to Konya’s room. But, something was wrong, Konya could tell because her grandmother had her disappointed face on. Oh great, what’d I do now? This can’t be good because grams is tapping her foot like I kept something from her… oh no, how did she find out?”Honey, is there something you should tell me?” from the way that she was talking Konya knew that she knew about the mirror.“Look, grandma, I was really going to tell you, but I was waiting for the right time. Please forgive me grandma, please?” Konya asked in her sincere voice because she knew that she was never going to tell her grandmother. Her grandma seemed to know that, because with a shake of her head, she dismissed the idea completely. “Grandma, I was never going to tell you because I did what you said not to. I looked straight into the eyes of the creature in the dark.” Her grandmother seemed glued to her place with the look of horror in her eyes. Her grandmother looked like she had swallowed a hornet!“I told you not to. Do you know that you are lucky that you didn’t die like everybody else? Konya, I expected better from you. I told you not to look him in the eyes, and what do you do? You disobey me and put our lives in risk!”“How did I put our lives in risk? I really don’t understand that grandma! I know that I put my life in risk, but how yours? I have read all I could on him, her, and it! Tell me grandma how I put yours in risk! Because I really don’t know how I did.” Those words hit her grandmother like a bunch of bricks, tumbling down on her.“Don’t be a fool, Konya! How do you know you have read all about him? I know that the person who looks into the eyes and lives will be able to tell when he returns for he is unstoppable. He or she who lives also has to face ling with these horrible nightmares about him and they also have to live through pure agony over and over again if he gets revenge over the person who did that horrible thing to him. Or so he says. I know these things because I read the book that he wrote himself. Yes, I lived through those agonizing pages of hell.” She smiled as her granddaughter stood open-mouthed with her bulging out like they were trying to run away. ”now would you like some breakfast? I made some bagels for you.”“Why didn’t you tell me, grandma? To think that I trusted you and thought that I could trust you, grandmother, after all I had done for you. ”after being with for twelve years my grandma, she is starting to wear on me. I never thought I would say that! ”how could you grandma after I thought that you were different than my old friends. Oh yeah, you might want to know that the creature in the dark is back. I know because I can see my reflection again. You also might want to know that I am leaving tomorrow to go and find the creature in the dark.” “Oh honey, you don’t need to go find him, for he has already found you. Now do you understand?” with a nod of Konya’s head she continued on her rampage. ”you never understood my magic. But now that I have you cornered, and I know that you wouldn’t dare hurt your grandmother, now would you?”I should’ve been able to tell! Grandmother has been acting weird lately, hasn’t she? I wonder how long the creature in the dark has been in her, waiting for the right moment. I can’t believe that it took control of her, and sunk so low! If he wanted to fight me, he should’ve waited!Now that she knows that the creature in the dark is back, will she be able to stop it?Comments
