I glanced at the mirror opposite my berth. It was placed at a position which allowed me to see the door with my back to it whilst still being able to see myself. It had been placed in that same position since I first joined the nemesis, back on Cybertron, but for some reason having it there today annoyed me. It wasn't that I didn't like where it was, to be honest I'm not really sure why I had decided I didn't like it there, I just didn't.
I lay there for a while staring at the door through the mirror - thinking. Pondering the war. Wondering to myself why everything is as it is, how different things would be if I had chosen a different path. What would things be like if I had joined the other side - The Autobots. I think about this a lot. I joined this war because I was against the automation, people who could barely afford to feed themselves losing their jobs because it would save other people money. The democracy we were put under. But then, that brief time the Decepticons ruled Cybertron it was another democracy - It makes you wonder what this is really about. I know the answer: Total domination. I don't know if that was the plan from the beginning or if it morphed itself into this ugly goal, but I do know one thing: I don't want to be part of it. Thing is, I can't really leave.
I sighed and sat up, still facing the mirror. Staring at it as if I would miss something if I looked away. I still didn't know what it was that made me hate looking at this mirror so much. I scanned the whole mirror, only finding myself reflecting back at me. Then I realized it, what I hated about this mirror...was me!
That was a short one wasn't it?
