~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The princess lay still, her eyes closed, afraid of what she would see upon their opening. She moved her arm and cried out in pain. It was then she started to feel the pain coming from all ends of her body. Slowly she opened her eyes and gasped seeing the ocean of broken glass she was surrounded by. Cautiously Relena rose into a sitting position and, with wide eyes, gazed at the shards of mirror, some tipped in dried blood. The blue eyes traveled from the glass to her arms and her shredded dress, the pure white fabric stained with deep red.
Tears once again rolled down her cheeks as she examined the deep cuts encrusted in dried blood all over her silky skin. Some of the lacerations on her arms started to bleed again from moving too much. The fallen princess brought an index finger to touch one of the wounds, staring at the crimson that stained her finger afterwards. "Lena…" She whispered, looking again at the hundreds of reflections of herself. They all gazed back at the injured girl with tears in their eyes.
"Lena? Where are you? WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?!" Relena screamed at her own bleeding reflection.
"Oh my…Relena…what happened?" Relena tore her gaze from the mirrors to find Hildy standing in the doorway, horror etched on her pretty face and eyes fixed on the bleeding child before her.
"I um, I tripped, on the rug," lied Relena. I can't explain this to her, she would think me mad…
"Oh darling." Hildy walked to her friend and crouched down, mindful of the broken glass, and gently grabbed one of Relena's arms. "Relena, most of this blood is dried, how long have you been sitting here?"
"I don't know, I guess I was knocked out when I hit the mirror," came the blond, her head hanging low.
"Come on sweetie, we need to get you to a hospital." After grabbing a towel to hold on the bad cuts, Hildy helped her friend to her feet and out the door to a nearby hospital.
