Tux took a deep breath then slowly proceeded into the lab. He glared.

"Stupid mirror." He kicked it slightly.

It wobbled but didn't tip over. He turned his back to it. He froze as he felt a smooth flipper grab his own. He let out a yelp and tried to pull his fin away, the other tugged and tried to pull him in.

"GET AWAY FROM ME!" Darkness fired from his fin to the mirror.

The fin went back with a cry. Tux staggered back.

THAT was close!

"Demons..."

"That wasn't very nice."

The half mage stared at the figure that came out of the mirror. It had gray feathers, with black feet and beak. Blue eyes were glowing dully. The beak was curved into a murderous smile. He couldn't speak, couldn't move and could not think correctly. He reeled backwards with a pained grunt as a punch went to his stomach

"Who's stronger now?"

Yeah, sure.

Tux knew that was NOT Krystal. He pushed himself up then with a swing of his flipper. He teleported out to the center of the zoo.

It was still dark outside.

He slapped his forehead.

STUPID! Why didn't he get the evil Krystal back into the mirror? What if it tried to take the REAL Krystal's place?

Soft footsteps behind him made him spin around. His eyes widened.

OH GEEZ. It was right there.

"WILL YOU STOP FOLLOWING ME!" He snapped.

IT grinned. "I only followed you once Tuxy."

He got into position.

"Oh come on, we both know you couldn't even land a punch."

Ok fair point, she was stronger than him. How would he get this monster back in the mirror?

Any ideas? xD
