Reflections are illusions...it never seems obvious and everyone at one point or another wonders about these copies of us. I was curious and eventually I wanted to prove a theory I once heard:

"Mirrors hold us back from their world, a evil place the mirror place must be explaining why it's always so cold. Don't mess with our reflections...they may snap."

I wanted to prove that our reflections are another being. So I have always wondered what might lie behind that verse...I decided to try this out. I suppose Meta knight might have sensed this happening...he warned me to not mess with the unknown. I swear, he always acts so protective...I told him that it was nothing, mirrors can't cause trouble otherwise it'd happen by now. However, he warned me that the world is not what it seems and that anything could happen. Meta knight acting almost like a fatherly figure towards me, he said in a stern voice, "You might be capable of any action but, that doesn't mean you should be doing so...don't go messing with danger, you may cause trouble for not only yourself but for everyone else!". I rolled my eyes, he over exaggerates a bit too much...I mean a mirror is just glass...right? The thoughts of curiosity haunted me, however that small voice in my head warned me to listen to Meta knight, he's been though it all, he must know better. Being stubborn at the time I decided to ignore that. And in the evening time, I was curious...should I prove the theory or test it? I knew of an abandoned cavern that held a mirror...I used it to say hello to myself when everyone was busy. I decided to stop by and check it out. The mirror reflected the moonlight outside, I had that feeling...you know like if your parents warned you not to do something but in the end you do it and you might have to hide it and regret it?...it was that feeling...so calming myself down I approached the old mirror. I looked at my reflection that copied every action I took, when I blinked so did the counterpart. I was fooling around in front of the mirror and it managed to do everything exactly of what actions I took. I then had a idea and I made very fast and sudden actions. Nothing different. I turned around and sighed, I heard a creaking noise and suddenly turned to the mirror and I unknowingly whacked the mirror with my necklace, cracking it. I gasped slightly but the oddest thing happened...my reflection looked at the crack even when I wasn't...my heart raced as it slowly looked up at me with a glare...but the sclera was dark purple with a glowing magenta pupil. I felt my heart throb in my mind from pressure, my hands in fear, and my throat where my heart fled to, my legs were unsteady and I ran out of that cave. My lunges were going to burst and that glare image was frozen in my eyes...I couldn't rest...I stood up and sat by my tree and looked around in fear...when the sun had risen from it's nightly break, my mind was purely exhausted and I fell asleep on the ground below. I awoken when the sun was almost midway. I didn't remember my dream that night...who am I kidding, I never dream. But those eyes stained my own...I refused to do much that day...my mind however had unsettled business...so I /had/ to see the mirror again...I decided that evening I'd visit the cavern again...I sighed confident it was a illusion...but that part of me still told me it was real. That evening as the stars appeared, I bit my lip to get rid of the fear and I had to have courage...I started to head to the direction of the caverns. I finally reached the abyss of the cavern and found the mirror with the crack. I noticed my reflection still had a irritated expression...I didn't display that expression. It eyes that I saw the night before weren't there...only my own eye color. However, a smirk appeared in the reflection. But it wasn't a smirk of pride...it was a smirk of evil. I was frozen but I thought in my mind to not think of it...it's eyes appeared again. I panicked as a sudden noise was created that even echoed, the noise of glass cracking. I ran immediately from the noise. I eventually stopped by the edge of the forest...I could see the civilization below...I never been there yet at least. I have always been the nervous one and wasn't ready for that type of thing. I rested by the nearest tree and decided to not to go mess with the mirror...so my mind said. Well...lied. I awoken feeling tired and genuine fear over my safety. I returned back to the forest that afternoon and tried to think of something positive. But nothing would work and all I could think was of negative thoughts. Like the eerie thoughts of danger and evil and what could happen. But one question remained in my mind that got me thinking, what did I do to cause it to snap into such horror? I guess my thoughts weren't private, and I wasn't aware of Meta knight's appearance. He had a rather suspicious look, it wasn't too obvious because of his mask covering up his face. He still had his yellow-golden eyes visible and that was how I could tell his expression. "Why are you so paranoid today?...come to think of it, explain your absence yesterday." He said with a tone of not only curiosity but also a irritated tone like knew what I have done. My mind started to panic and try to develop a fake tale to cover up of what I had really done. "I...I was exploring the forest...the darker foggier zone! I saw a demon thingie and it chased me and I got scared and I still am!" I quickly lied. Well I did see a demon counterpart...not entirely a lie. Not really at least. Well if you know Meta knight well enough, he is that type of person that is hard to convince with tales like I said. "A demon?...I probably would have seen that early on in the forest." He clearly wasn't fully convinced but he knew that I had encounters with evil before demons was one of the list. I even was one...which is the reason I had to leave my original home and why I'm here in Dreamland's forest.

I probably never told you but I left my home which happened to be a theater, because I was a demon, they were going to execute me. I had no other choice but to flee. A storm was out confusing my flight as I went crashing down to a forest, Dreamland's forest. A lot of things have happened since then and I have only known of Meta knight only a few days after my landing here. He considered myself evil, of course he would. He tried to do away with me, but he noticed I was only a child trying to mentally fight away the evil inside. He decided to let me live. Eventually, evil tried to completely take over but my heart still protected me...but for how much longer?...that was until I understood my reason here. My heart was get weaker as evil deteriorated. I was willing to just accept my fate just then, he saw my suffering and my condition getting worse. He didn't want to kill me, he maybe didn't get to know me but he knew that I had a possible future. I wasn't going to give up neither would my heart. Purity grew inside my heart and the demons and my evil vanished. It was very promising to me. Ever since then I have been happy around here. You might think me and Meta knight have a type of relation...not really. I'm not sure if he'd even consider me as a friend. If only though, he is a very mysterious type. Enigma shrouds him constantly and no one really understands him and what he does. Even I get confused what his actions are. They are suddenly and just...unexpecting. I suppose that's why many like him. He probably doesn't like me, but he does seem to care about my actions and thoughts...I've always wondered why.

"Hello?!" Meta knight asked sternly, I was blacking out from my thoughts. I quickly arrived back to reality as Meta knight was impatiently tapping one foot and crossing his arms waiting for an answer. What's funny is you'd expect me to look down a lot. Not so, I'm actually only a foot and a half taller than he is, I could only direc my eyes downwards and have my head slightly down...I always found that funny. "Err...well it only tries to get me. An it hides a lot so if you blink, you miss it." I said with a tone of false confidence. Meta knight have a soft glare at me as I tried looking the other direction getting distracted by the ribbon tied all over my hair. He finally rolled his eyes, "Very well. Let it be". I blinked a few times before Meta knight's cape hit my face covering my vision momentarily and his back was turned to me as he headed back to where ever he goes. I might investigate someday. But certainly not today. Once Meta knight's silhouette was gone, heading towards the sunset, I ran back to the cavern as my fear and curiosity was controlling my own actions. I looked back at the mirror, the crack had grew larger and a few shards lied on the dusty and rocky ground. My reflection was myself again but I dared not touch the cracks. I knew that this thing wanted to fool me. My reflection did everything I did but the blinking timin was a bit...off. My bravery tried to cover this up. But what would I get out of doing so? Nevertheless I ignored the blinking and excused it as the cracks causing this but my mind knew the truth. And my mind told me to run out of there and never return. I wanted to but I had to understand what this was about!...I wish I had listened. I wish I wasn't so stubborn and just listened to Meta knight's warnings. I wish I had just never had looked at that damn mirror! I touched the cracks and retract after some shards got caught in my finger and my reflection did the same expect it didn't make a reaction once it had the shards stuck in it's finger. She actually smiled as those eyes of malice returned. And the reflection's true self appeared. She said in a cold and eerie voice that sounds like my own:
"Doesn't it feel happy?"
I backed away from this thing, her clothes had changed to something different to my own. She wore dark purple, plaid patterned stockings, her dress was smaller than my own and was dark violet as there was to violet ribbon that only made a position like a very long bow. Her crown had a silver dull metal color that had a violet blue, princess cut gem that pulsed with a evil energy. Her necklace was violet that glowed dark blue. It was definitely evil and corrupt. I backed away from the mirror as it began to crack. I was about to run once I heard that evil thing say, "What's wrong?...Spectrophobic?". I ran out of the cave as I heard the echo of glass shattering and it falling all over the place. I ran faster than I had ever dreamed once I heard the foot steps echo in the cave. I was screaming but it wasn't uncontrollably loud only loud to display fear and as I ran I tripped over a branch and began to immediately crawl and shut my trap so that thing wouldn't find me easily and I got up and continued to ran all the way out of the forest and I hit into someone. Please let it not be-- it was. Who stood before me was the one who I should have listened to, Meta knight. His eyes illuminated the darkness very slightly. He practically knew what had happened and gave a glare down at me as my eyes set at his one the ground. "Ruby, I told you not to mess with the unknown!" he scolded at me. How did he know?... It turns out that once I thought he had left a few minutes later, he turned back to the forest to check on me, he knew that something else was wrong and he didn't buy my story. He saw me and the mirror and instantly knew what had happened, he saw me running out of the cavern and when I tripped, he made his way back to where ever he goes and I ran into him when he was on his way back, it turns out that the reflection had broke the mirror entirely with some jagged glass on the side and it had ran outside to turn into a shadow and run into the forest in a different direction. The shadow is somewhere out there now. "I know your curiosity got the better of you but you should have never had done that and just listened to me!" he continued after explaining what had happened. I wish I wasn't a curious type. "C-can't you stop it?" I stammered in fear. Meta knight stopped glaring at me for a moment to look away. "I don't know what that thing is...if I had then I wouldn't be as mad as I am would I?" he sighed. I looked down out of guilt and shame but to my surprise he placed a hand on my shoulder and I looked up to him again. "That's how others become wise...curiosity may lead to wisdom and knowledge. You'll learn someday, don't think it's the end...even I was in your shoes at one point of my life. Learning for yourself makes you understand of why to take consideration in others words. That's how one becomes a true warrior." he softly told me as I still trembled in fear. I was scared still but Meta knight's words will always fill in some holes of confidence. If I am to be a real knight like he is I better start to open up. I gave a small smile to him as I nodded softly. I was still to scared to sleep that evening and ended up falling asleep on the ground in the morning from sheer exhaustion. I awoken in horror to see something scratched in the tree I was leaning against. It was scratched in by a blade and my heart was beating normally once my kind accepted the fact she was here and it sped up when I found out it was in another language that I didn't know fluently or at all. It said in whatever language:

"Reflexionen sind nicht existent"

I read all my books to find out this language which turned out to be in German. I didn't know the language too well so it wasn't detectable to me. I spent many nights sleepless and paranoid which concerned Meta knight, I had to sleep and I did during the day time and if Meta knight was nearby. I evenuay proceed to normal life though that took a long time... I still never get the feelin of being alone however and maybe I do have Spectrophobia, I never look at my reflection anymore or even at mirrors. I never will possibly knowing that mirrors are not what they seem. I now know to listen to others who have had experiences and that know better. I should stay unaware of these dangers but curiosity continues to haunt me, I think Meta knight will keep a better eye on me. We also noticed there has been more chaos lately...I wonder why, maybe it's my counterpart?...I never trusted mirrors after reading that German text...I didn't say what it was did I? Well I translated it which would scare me and confirm my phobia. It may not scare you since you never experienced what I did. But the words translated means:

"Reflections are nonexistent"

Am I alone with this? I may ask others if they have a evil counterpart but for the one who don't, they must stay unaware and accept their reflection just being themselves. But...I know that they are not what science says. They are just people that look like us holding us back...

Just let it be that way.
