"Hurt them." It whispers. Staring intensely at Amaris.
"Why would I want to hurt them?" Amaris asked this distorted version of herself. Confusion and shock written all over her face. How could it ask me that?
"...They hurt you. Why would you not?" It asked, squinting her eyes at her as if it couldn't believe that Amaris didn't want to hurt them.
"So does that mean I must do everything you ask me to do?"
"Yes!" It replied almost immediately
"No!" Amaris snapped back, glaring at the distorted reflection in the mirror. Not even bothering to feel unsettled at the sight of the multiple eyes it bore all over its skin.
"But I am you! I don't want us to hurt like this. They need to know they can't get away from hurting us!"
"You are not me." Amaris insisted, anger bubbling up her lungs.
"Then who am I?" It asked, the tone of its voice tells her it knows the answer all too well. But Amaris refuses to give in. The anger that bubbled in her lungs dissipated as quickly as it formed.
"...a monster." Amaris muttered, looking away, not being able to look at it in its eyes at the moment, knowing what look it would be giving her. It seemed to hum in amusement.
"But darling. We are the same. Doesn't that make you a monster too?" She knew this, she always knew this, how stupid is she to think that it'll make a difference if she denied and denied the truth?
"...yes." She agreed.
"..let's go hurt them then."
"..."
"Will you do it?"
"...okay."
"Then why do you feel so bad?"
"...because I am about to hurt them."
"Relax, they haven't even seen how much of a monster we can really be." It only smiles at her, and usually you'd think it would be a pleasant thing to do. To smile, but this is a different case. It didn't even have a mouth. Seeing how the large eye that took place of where a normal mouth would be split wide open, showing rows of teeth, more disfigured than the last, made Amaris want to vomit. She felt disgusted.74Please respect copyright.PENANAMZxeR5kOgC

This thing, it terrified her.
...but this monster in the mirror is her after all.
