Chapter 3

The ray of sunlight shone through the window. Izumi opened one of her eyes and saw Kouji peacefully resting. Morning time.

She got out of bed and quietly walked to her room. She noticed that the injured foot has been healing overnight.

She walked into her room and shut the door. She went into her closet to fetch some clothes and take a stroll into the yard.

A few minutes later, she changed out of her pajamas and stared at the mirror.

She combed her hair and brushed the tangles out. She looked into the mirror and gazed at her image. She was straightening her hair when oddly enough; her reflection wasn't mimicking her exact moves.

Izumi raised her hand. The reflection didn't budge. She stuck her tongue out. Nothing.

Izumi's heart was beating faster and faster. He pupils dilated and looked aimlessly ahead. Her reflection looked back at her intensely. Then, sound came from it.

At first it sounded like a gurgle, but soon afterwards, the figure whispered, "help…me…."

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Shrieked Izumi.

Kouji came tumbling through the door eyeing his girlfriend moping on the floor.

"What is it?" he bent over and looked at her with a serious expression.

Izumi pointed. "The…mirror…something happened!"

Kouji walked towards the mirror and stared into it. He waved it. It waved back. His reflection seemed normal. Everything seemed normal. He bent down towards Izumi.

"You're not hurt or anything, right?"

She shook her head.

"But something wasn't right. My reflection…it…it…talked…."

He kissed her on the cheeks. "Don't worry. I'm here. Everything will be all right. Do you want to take a walk?"

Izumi nodded.

"All right. I'll see you downstairs."

She nodded again. She rushed out of her bedroom with Kouji.

After eating breakfast, Izumi walked outside in the morning fresh air. She stared helplessly at her sneakers. She couldn't imagine all of the strange happenings. They were real….

Her feet crunched into the colored leaves that reached up to her knees. Why is all of this happening!? Izumi couldn't help but wonder…no answer popped in her head.

She sighed.

She propped herself onto the piles of leaves. Why are these things only occurring to her? Is someone trying to send her a message? A message about what?

From far away where Izumi stood, a black-cloaked stranger stared at her. He/She kept a distant watch at Izumi and was kept well hidden.

Izumi called to Izumi. "Do you want to come along and watch a movie at the movie theaters?"

She shrugged.

"So we can…um…forget about the strange incidents?"

Izumi thought for a while and stepped inside their house. Maybe I should do something to get these unexplained things away from my thoughts, said Izumi to herself.

The stranger just stood there watching everything that happened. "Beware." The thing whispered. "If anything stands in their way…" he stopped to take a breath, "It WILL kill…it will…."

~Late at Night~

Izumi slept in Kouji's bed again. She felt so much more comfortable with her soul mate around. She realized Kouji was already asleep and she closed here eyes.

She was hoping to be sleeping peacefully tonight…but the wind was blowing the curtains real hard and quietly came a whisperer.

"Izumi…Izumi…you must leave now…before…the prophecy comes true…."

And as that voice fainted, another began to speak, but this time only Kouji could hear it. Whatever it was, it made Kouji sweat and toss and turn a lot.
