Broken Mirror
As Emma held the mirror up to look at her face she could see how tired she looked. Her usually bright blue eyes were looking duller, darker. Her hair was loosing some of its life.
She supposed it was reflecting her. She was loosing her life too. She could feel it.
She wondered if the others had noticed it yet. She didn't think so. She'd been hiding it well but she couldn't hide it forever.
As her powers were getting stronger they were becoming harder to control. She knew she would have to leave soon, by her own choice or not she knew she would have to go.
She dropped the mirror as another headache hit her. They were happening more and more now. She looked at the broken pieces on the floor at her feet. They looked like stars, shining, drawing her into them. She reached out to touch them and cut her finger. She watched the blood fall slowly to the floor. She saw it land on the pieces of the mirror.
At least if she could still bleed she was still alive.
She wondered if any of her friends could handle this if it was them instead of her. Could they block out the constant stream of emotions that was getting stronger, that was choking the life out of her everyday?. Could they spend so much time in other people's minds and still know who they were?. Could they face the darkness she was going to face?
She wanted one of them to notice. She wanted them to tell her not to go.
She looked back at the broken mirror and into the shattered pieces of her soul.
