'I don't know why you try child'
"GO AWAY!"
Her wretched laugh only echoed in her mind, taunting her every attempt at getting. her. OUT!
Morrigan trembled, nails digging into her flesh so hard that if it weren't for her layers of clothing it was sure to draw blood, she felt the sting of bile in her throat, the erratic beating of her heart, the prickle of tears in her eyes, but no. She couldn't break now, not after she assured Jupiter that she was fine, she was ok and that it was just the WunSoc stress getting to her.
She swallowed hard, "What do you even want with me?!" she laughed again, the sound akin to nails on a chalkboard, "Answer me Mallantha!"
'In the mirror, pet'
Morrigan felt the chilling smile that demon had plastered on her face, the hairs on the back of her neck stood up and her gut told her not to listen, but when had she ever listen to it?
It's what got me into this in the first place she thought bitterly
'That's right, this all your fault pet, you basically gave yourself to me'
"Be quiet."
'Now, now, aren't you going to look into that darling mirror of yours? I thought you wanted answers?'
And she did.
She looked into that dammed mirror, but she just found her reflection and nothing more. Charcoal-black hair, neatly brushed, button-black eyes, rimmed with red, a crooked nose and very pale skin. It didn't matter that she lived in the Free State for almost 6 years now and attended a school whose daily weather was a bit more, she never could make her skin darken just a bit to get rid of the sickly complexion. Morrigan's confusion turned into slowly dawning horror as half of the mirror distorted.
Distorted until it showed her face twisted in maniacal glee, tears of wunder trailing down her cheeks, splatters of the very thing that made her special scattered around her clothes and on her hands, mimicking the look of blood. Tears streamed down her own face, mouth open in a silent scream. The other half only reflected an inhuman smile.
Morrigan jumped back from the mirror and continued walking away from it until her back reached the wall. Legs giving out under her she slid down and hugged her knees to her chest, stifling her sobs, body trembling violently.
'See, pet? That's what you are and will always be. A monster.'
"Jupiter said I'm no such thing" Morrigan argued through her sobs, Mallantha only laughed. 'Of course you're a monster Morrigan! Why else would I choose you as my vessel?' . The very mention of her name on it's lips made her flinch,
'You dear patron lied darling'
"Stop."
'Why your soul's darker than Ezra Squall himself!'
"Stop it."
'You'll be the key to the destruction of this abomination of a world my dear!'
"I don't. want. to"
'You have no choice Morrigan. I get what I want and you're no exception.'
"Get. out. of. my. head! Your presence is not welcome!"
'HAHAHA! That won't do a thing to me pet, you should know that~'
"I SAID GET OUT!"
A bright flash of gold and a taunting smile was the only thing she saw before the cool, sweet presence of dark embraced her.
