Suddenly I got the feeling that it might not be the best idea to go outside.

Go outside [X]

Do not go outside [ ]

The thing was nowhere to be seen. Just as I was turning around I took a look at the roof. There it was. It was close to a corner, about to turn. It looked like an albino male with really long limbs. He had fingers instead of toes and all 20 of them were elongated. He was facing away from me. Suddenly the head swivelled 180 degrees and stared at me. I started choking up, as if suffocated.
It was hard to breathe.
The thing opened it's mouth, slowly and deliberately. I thought it was going to devour me when its tongue snaked out.
On the tip of its tongue was my face. Like a tumour.
Eyes closed. Lips upturned into some psycho smile.
There's a legend somewhere that when you see a doppelganger you die. 
I thought of that legend. But then the creature rounded the corner and it was gone. I lost it and followed, vision hazy. My heart beat suddenly seemed ear-splitting to me. I was stumbling, because my legs seemed unable to coordinate. Suddenly, I stumbled forward and toppled down. Once I lay there, face down in the grass, my body just seemed to shut down. I couldn't move. I couldn't even turn my head. There was something dripping on my back. My eyelids seemed heavy and started closing of their own accords. I saw white feet with long fingers for toes step into view.
When my eyes opened Xevphera was shaking me. She was on the brink of tears and her voice was cracking.
"Get up! Get up! That bastard was in your skin!" she shouted.
My head hurt. I was about to ask her what happened when she started pulling me backwards, toward the door. We toppled out and stumbled toward Honeydew's car, which was parked in a different location from what I remembered. I was glad to be alive. The mist had stopped completely. Xevphera was downright crying now.
She pushed me into the back seat.
That's when I noticed.
I was wearing different clothes from when I lost consciousness.
Lalna was there, huddled up and face buried in his knees. Some clothes - stained with blood - were beside him. They were mine. Honeydew immediately stepped on the pedal, but nothing happened. He swore and did it again. I noticed Xevphera was armed with a shotgun from the cabin.
I asked what was going on.
"The thing joined us. He looked like you." Honeydew stated. "We got out of the house and found the car. We were half way down the road. Then Lalna started screaming. I looked at Lalna. He had a glazed-over look in his eyes. The thing burst out of your clothes and jumped out of the car. Lalna had the shotgun. He was firing out the window. We saw the thing run all the way back to the house. At the friggin speed of light."
"It was in my skin?" I asked.
"Yeah."
I looked down at myself. I wondered if I had been possessed or if worse, the thing had cut off my skin and wore it as a coat. I shuddered at the thought of something crawling around in my skin. I asked Lalna if he was alright.
"The thing talked to me." Lalna stated.
I asked about what. He didn't respond. I realized he was sobbing.
The car jolted into motion. Honeydew fist-pumped as the car started accelerating.
I turned back towards the cabin and saw the albino-thing standing on the roof of the house, watching us. I shuddered and turned back. Xevphera screamed.
The thing was in front of the car, on the windshield.
It opened its mouth and my tongue-face slithered out. Xevphera fired the shotgun.
The glass shattered and it was thrown backwards.
Honeydew shrieked and I saw blood coming from his face.
Something pierced my face and I realized it was glass. The car skidded to a stop.
The car doors opened, without any discernible reason, and I fell out.
The thing seemed to belaying across from me, eyes closed as if it was sleeping.  
I wished I could close my eyes.
Its mouth hung open and I saw myself again emerging.
I didn't move or say anything, because I couldn't. My face looked at me and started to talk.
"I love you. I love you. I love you. I want to be you..." It repeated over and over again.
It was coming close to me. I wondered if it was going to bite me to death.
The things eyes shot open and I realised it was going to kiss me. I managed to regain some control and instinctively twisted back from it.
I guess that was what saved m-

SPLAT.

There was a sound like an explosion and blood spouted from the thing.
Xevphera was standing over it.
Her face and body were bleeding and she had this spaced-out, psychopathic look in her eyes.
She had just fired the shotgun. My face looked directly at me.
"I am you." It whispered.

SPLAT.

She fired again and I saw my own face begin rotting to nothing more than a skeleton in front of me. The things head flowered open. That's the best word I can find to describe it. It's head kind of split and split again, peeling away. I saw faces - lots of them - all on the inside of its head.
I think I saw Xevphera's and Lalna's faces. They were whispering something unintelligible.
In the centre - where the brain should be - there was a single, red, catlike eye that was rotating in its socket.
It was producing the mechanical droning sound.
Xevphera fired one last time. The thing sort of withered away, becoming wrinkled and smaller and rotten - until it just disappeared.
Xevphera dropped the shotgun. I started twitching and spasming as control of my body returned to me.
Eventually I stood up. We got into the car silently. Honeydew was bleeding too, but no one said anything. 
We drove back to the city in silence.
We explained away the damaged car as being attacked by some crazy thieves. We had ourselves patched up.
Lalna was still in a shock-like state.
I hear he was like that for a while.
When I asked him what he thought of the incident later, he denied it ever happened, with compelling conviction.
His eyes looked dead and he had lost weight.
I don't know if he forced himself not to remember or if he generally knows nothing of it.
I know what I saw, but I cant remember the exact place.
It has been 2 months now. We still refrain from talking about it.
If you were expecting some huge twist or something, you'd be disappointed. I still don't know what we met out there.
I don't want to know, actually.
I still have nightmares about my own face - shouting 'I am you.'
One thing I do know though.
I am never going camping ever again.

END
