"We've scared a lot of women in these masks," Dean said.
"Are we sure we wanna wear these? I think a masquerade means covering your eyes rather than your mouths," Seth said.
"That's exactly why we're doing this. We want her to recognize us straight away. She needs to know she doesn't scare us and that she can't fuck around with us," Roman said.
They all stared in the big mirrow in the hall at the wolf masks covering their mouths and noses.
"Alright, boys, let's go," Dean said.
They drove to the mansion and walked inside. The place was packed with men and women wearing masks. They moved to a quiet corner and looked around.
"Look for electric blue eyes," Roman said.
"Why do you remember shit like that?" Dean snickered. "I just remember how her pussy looks."
Seth's eyes fell on a woman in the other end of the room. She was dressed in an old fashioned dress. White, laces, short with long sleeves. Even from afar he could see the eyes almost glowing in an orange colour through the holes of the white mask covering the top half of her face.
"She's wearing contacts," he said and nodded towards her. "Over there."
"How can you be sure?" Dean asked.
"She fucking stares at us like a creep," Seth said.
"Combat boots and short dress. She's ready to run and fight if it's needed," Roman said.
"But the hair is blond," Dean pointed out.
"Probably a wig," Roman said.
The woman took out her phone and started typing on it. Shortly after all three of their phones went off.
"Are you just gonna stare at me all night?"
They looked up again but she was gone.
"There!" Dean pointed.
They moved as fast as they could without drawing attention to themselves, following that white dress and blonde wig through the room. They caught her as she neared a door. Roman pulled off her wig and mask and stared at a scared girl with short, tawny brown hair that he had never seen before in his life.
"Who are you?" She asked.
"It's not her," Roman let go of her. "I'm sorry."
He really wasn't but he couldn't have her running out to find security if there even was any at this party. They turned around and scanned the room again.
"There!" Both Roman and Seth said at the same time.
They were pointing in different directions though.
"What the...?" Seth muttered.
All three guys looked around as they saw several women dressed in the same dress with the same blonde wig, same white mask and same orange eyes.
"How many are there?" Seth asked.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9," Dean counted and turned around. "And 10. Where did she go?"
The woman behind them was long gone.
"What the fuck is going on?" Roman asked.
"Who's the right one?" Dean asked.
Their phones went off at the same time again.
"Mirror, mirror on the wall,
who's the naughtiest of them all?"
"The mirror labyrinth," Roman sighed.
"Do we really have to go in there?" Seth almost sounded scared.
They all looked towards the entrance to the labyrinth. The invitation had promised a mysterious night and of course a mirror labyrinth had been set up.
"I'm afraid we do," Roman said. "Unless you wanna call it off but I doubt she'll back down."
"We're not gonna let a fucking girl run all over us!" Dean sneered. "We're going in there!"
They walked to the entrance and took a last look behind them. All ten women dressed alike was gone.
"They're gone," Seth said.
"Wanna take a guess where they're at?" Roman pointed into the labyrinth.
"There might be ten of them in there but we're getting out with the right one," Dean said confidently.
"Don't split up in there," Roman said.
"You wanna hold my hand?" Dean teased.
They walked into the labyrinth that seemed abandoned for every other person at the party. It didn't take long before the first girl appeared in a mirror. They followed but she soon disappeared. Different voices started giggling just as the girls started showing up all around. They tried to follow each time they saw one but they never got close.
"Ah!" Seth screamed and jumped around. "Someone fucking blew in my ear!"
"Aw, someone likes you," Dean teased.
"In my fucking ear, Dean!" Seth shouted. "Someone was right behind us. How the fuck is that possible?"
"Some of these mirror walls are probably moveable," Roman said.
"I've had enough!" Seth sneered.
"Janine!" Roman called out loudly. "Stop screwing around and show yourself!"
The giggling voices immediately died down and everything seemed way too quiet. A voice behind them made them all jump.
"Naughty, naughty boys," she said.
They turned around and stared into the orange eyes.
"Janine?" Dean asked.
She took off the wig and mask and revealed her black and blue hair. They stared at her, not knowing if they should continue standing still or attack her right on the spot.
"They're watching," she twirled a finger around in the air. "They're all around us."
"Who?" Seth asked.
"My friends," she answered.
"What do you want?" Roman asked.
"I know what you've been up to," she said.
"You wanna turn us in?" Dean asked.
"On the contrary. I wanna join in," she answered.
"Join in on what exactly?" Roman asked.
She giggled again, only this time it was only her voice and not nine other women. The other nine were still close though. They could feel them.
"I'll go home with you and we'll talk there," she said.
"Really? You'll go home with us? You'll put yourself in danger like that?" Seth asked in disbelief.
"You're not gonna hurt me," she said.
"What makes you so sure?" Dean asked.
"Someone will be there, watching you, and you have no idea who or how many," she answered.
"They won't make it inside before you're dead," Roman said.
"And you won't make it outside after you kill me. Are you willing to sacrifice your own lives just because I hurt your pride a little?" She asked. "I'm on your side here so take me home with you."
The guys shared a look and nodded at each other.
"Alright, let's go," Roman said.
"How the fuck do we get out of this labyrinth?" Seth asked.
"Follow me," she pushed a mirror wall open. "I know a shortcut."
