A world in the mirror
Have you ever looked into a mirror and thought about what is on the other side? Technically speaking a mirror is just a piece of glass covered with a reflective surface that reflects the image back to you.
This morning when I got dressed I looked into the mirror as usual and the image of myself looked back at me, copying me and doing exactly as I am,as I walked away something strange happened ... The person in the mirror flinched as I walked away, I walked back to the mirror to investigate but it seemed normal ... maybe the lack of sleep last night has got to my head ...
Finally home after a long day out and about and as I get into bed I realise that the corner of my bedroom mirror is cracked, how did that happen I wonder. Getting into bed I decide that I will get it repaired over the weekend. I fall into a deep sleep that evening and have a dream that seems so real it is almost impossible. In the dream I am awoken by my sister but she seemed different, almost opposite of her usual self. My sister Aria is naturally shy and conservative but in this dream she is loud and dressed in a track pants with a baggy top (so not her style of dressing), she wakes me up by shouting and then she jumps on the bed and gives me a shock waking me up and making my heart feel like it's beating out of my chest. She is panicking and insists that I come with her immediately. She drags me out of bed and to the kitchen where my mum is making chocolate muffins that look and smell so real I could almost taste it. When mum sees me she is surprised and then a sudden look of sadness comes over her. Aria explains that things are changing and will not be the same anymore but I am so confused I don't understand, what won't be the same?? What are you talking about? I suddenly get up from my dream and feel my heart pounding out of my chest. .. what just happened? That felt too real to be a dream ... something is wrong ... I look up at the mirror and the cracks has gotten worst.
The next day drags by as I anticipate the evening wondering if I would have that strange dream again. As I get into bed my mind wonders about the conversation I had with the mirror Aria and all the panic surrounded by the conversation. I don't realise when but I fall into a deep sleep and once again I'm "awaken" by mirror Aria who doesn't seem that panicked then before but rather more sad or remorse, surprised by her expression I immediately ask her what the matter is, to my surprise she says nothing and starts walking out of the room, I follow her silently up a lot of stairs and walk through the large doors into a room with a large balcony, when I look out of the balcony I see the amazing view of a lovely mountainside and the sea, as I'm staring at it I realise something isn't right, there is no colour, it's all black and white. I look at Aria with surprise and she finally speaks "it's the queen, she controls the colour of our land, her only daughter was murdered last week by the evil wizard and now she refuses to fix the colour of our land, she feels that if she is in the darkness we should as well,we don't blame her, it's really sad. We just wish she could be happy again"
I decided to come back tomorrow with the solution to her problem. I am determine I can fix it. Just as I make that promise I wake up and start thinking about how to fix her problem. On the way home I decided to stop at a cat shelter and I see the cutest, snow white kitten with sea blue eyes and a nose so pink it looks like a marshmallow. I decide I'm taking him with tonight to the mirror land. That evening g as I sit anxiously waiting to fall asleep so I can go to mirror land I can't stop thinking about how excited the queen will be. I wake up in mirror land and hold the kitten close to me, I don't want her to get scared. I walk with mirror Aria towards a huge castle that looks beautiful, I walk into the large hall and see her sitting in the thrown. After I am introduced to the queen by Aria I start my speech "my dearest condolences to you your highness, I'm sincerely sorry for your loss. I understand that you are in charge of the colour of your land which if in may say is rather spectacular a dream amazing. I understand you are heartbroken and currently in mourning but your land really does need colour. I have a preposition for you, would you like to meet a little friend of mine?" I take out the kitten and the look on her face is expressionless, I'm not sure if she likes the kitten or hates it, then she gets up and slowly walks towards me and the kitten. She takes the kitten from me and walks towards a large frame that I didn't notice before, it has a picture of a beautiful young girl with golden hair, pink lips and sea blue eyes. "This is my daughter, Emily she was murdered and when you brought me this kitten her eyes reminded me of her, thank you miss"
And then she turned around said something and colour was restored to the land. The queen named the kitten snow because of her white fur and she never felt lonely or depressed again.
THE END.

Very intriguing, by far my favourite post. You should do more fictional writing pieces, I think it's your strength.
I definitely will try and do that the thing is that it just takes a bit of time and it's a bit hectic at the moment but thanks for the feedback 😊
