Kestrel's POV
I look around as I walk into the house our parents bought me and Valentine. Didn't even ask if we liked it. Me and Val go separate ways to explore the house more.
Making my way up the stairs I roll up the sleeves of my black jacket. Of course our parents send us someplace hot. Trying to break my habit of wearing jackets? Pfft.
I walk into the bathroom and take a glance in the mirror. I look over my hair. Black with rainbow highlights. Turning away from the mirror I catch a glimpse of my eyes. A bright, neon, green. Smirking I make my way down the hallway and walk into a room.
Walking around the room I nod to myself.
"This room's mine, Val!" I yell and start to mentally plan the look of the room. "The bed'll go here," I say to myself as I stand in a spot. "And the dresser'll go there," I look at one side of the room. "And my rug'll be spread there," I finalize.
Valentine's POV
From the outside this house looks ancient. I think back to yesterday, the lady had said something about how some of the last people who lived here, died here. She had also mentioned that the previous owners had ran out of the house screaming about monsters. The second she said that I knew this was where I wanted to live. Though it didn't matter if I liked the house or not. My parents would buy it no matter what my sister and I wanted.
I seperate away from my twin and venture into the kitchen. It was nce. Nicer than I expected. I moved on, wandering until I find what previously must have been the master bedroom. I liked the room but it's just not my style. I continue wandering around until I somehow manage to find the attic. The room was empty and had nothing on the walls except a large vent on one side of the room, it was the perfect size for crawling in. Farther down the vent was a light coming fom a drop in the vent. Also there was something that resembled the top of a ladder.
I couldn't help myself as I pulled the panel off and crawled in. There were more cobwebs than I can count. I should probably be worried that the walls would collapse under m but my need for adventure was greater. I continued crawling until I found a drop, the vent went straight down. Luckily, I was right, there was a ladder here. The light was coming from down there.
I climb down the ladder. When I turn around I was standing in an empty room. It was old looking and the light was coming from a boarded up window. The only item in the room was a body size mirror. The mirror was extremely old looking. Other than the dark spots the mirror achieved with old age, it was covered in a thick layer of dust.
I suddenly found myself standing on the other side of the room, directly in front of the mirror. I don't remember walking over here. I lifted my hand to the mirror and wiped away some of the dust. I brush the cobwebs out of my blue hair. It's always felt weird to look in mirrors. Me and my twin sister, Kestrel, are identical except for our hair and eye colors. Kestrel's hair is black with rainbow highlights, my hair is blue with black tips and highlights. Now our hair is dyed but we were both born with brown hair. The only thing different on us that is different is our eyes. Kestrel's is neon green like a cat's. Mine are purple. Bright purple. Looking in a mirror always bothered me because it looked just like my sister.
I shift uncomfortably on one foot, then straighten out my black MCR shirt and my blue skinny jeans. I turn around and decide that this secret room shall be my bedroom. originally this house was built by Charles Montgomery which meant that he built this room intending to be hidden.
"What were you hiding?" I whisper.
I had to take my bed apart piece by piece to get it into the secret room, then I had to put it back together. Every time I walked into the room I found myself looking in the mirror. I guess you could say I look like an average girl. I'm not a prep and I'm not a goth, or a nerd. I dressed like a gamer girl. After I get my bed together I drag my TV into the room, set that up. Eventually I get everything in the room and set up. The only thing left to do is hang up my posters.
Me and a friend of mine are writing this together. It'll be updated about once a week. I'm Kestrel and she Valentine. Please review :)
