Sorry this took so long!!! Okay. I have a very good excuse. It's just going to take me a while to think of it. But I have had extreme writers block and a week of exams.

BTW on subject of exams have you ever played bogies during one? or near the end? I have. SOOOO FUNNY.

Now it's very short because of my writers block, I am sorry =[

Stephanie Edgley loomed tall over the bleeding, limp, dead corpse that used to be a living man. She didn't have a sign of regret in her dark eyes, even as she had heard his blood curdling scream as she killed him.

Just as she turned around she noticed someone who she vaguely recognised, but not through her own eyes. He had a mess of blonde hair on his head, looked about 20. He was frozen to the spot in shock however when he returned back to earth he disappeared.

Stephanie's head tilted until she realised what had happened and she muttered a low curse and ran in the opposite direction. She ran to the park, they wouldn't look for her here, she was meant to be in school so she just kept walking completely away from reality.

Fletcher had Teleported everyone, even the wounded Valkyrie Cain who was too stubborn for her own good, to the shell of a man. He lay in a pool of his deep red blood, his face still twisted in pain from the multiple stab wounds over his body. "Why would she do this?" Valkyrie asked, "Skulduggery, when we shot her,"

"It" He corrected.

"When we shot it, that's when the gaps started appearing in her day... and she can do a lot more then she should be able to do. When... When it says my name is Darquesse, wouldn't that also apply to it? If it's a copy of me." She stated, still looking at the dead man in front of her.

"That," Skulduggery started. ", Is entirely plausible." He decided.

"Who is the bloke anyway?" Tanith asked.

"His name is Temperous Glaze." Fletcher answered flatly, still looking at the man in front of him. "He was... Someone I knew." Suddenly everyone looked at him, Valkyrie rushed over.

"I'm so sorry Fletcher it's my entire fault! It's my reflection, I mean, how do you know him was he a friend?" She gushed, but he shook his head

"Not a friend. Family. That was my brother." He said, "And I'm glad he's gone." He continued

"What do you mean?"

"He did some terrible things in my family, and to others. It was on more than one occasion that he tried to kill me. Several, in fact." He smirked. "I didn't see who it was until I brought you all here, and even though your reflection killing is most certainly not a good thing, something good did come out of it." Laughing he turned around. "Sorry about that, I have to be somewhere, can you get back by yourselves?"

"Yes, thank you Fletcher," Skulduggery told him, and walked over to the body. "Definitely not a good thing..." He muttered below his voice, Valkyrie cursed.

"Well, I'm going to have to get rid of the reflection then." She said. Thoughts were running through her head, what's going to happen at home now then?

"Ah, Stephanie you're home. How was school?" Melissa Edgley askes me.

"Good. Same as always." I answer, and go to walk upstairs.

"Stop right there. Why are you lying to me?" Her voice was harsh, something I had never come across. "You wern't at school today. They phoned in. You have never gone something like that, what made you do that, you'd better have a good excuse!"

"I went to the park to clear my mind. I'm sorry mum. One of my friends died earlier." It was all too easy for me to lie, and for Melissa's eyes to widen.

"Oh honey, why did you not tell me? You could have stayed home. I am sorry for yelling at you." She embraced me and I replied.

"It's okay, I just needed some alone time. Can I go upstairs now?"

"Of course honey, call me if you need anything."

"Will do"

I carried on upstairs to my room, and finished planning what I had been researching ever since that bullet entered my reflected heart.

Let it go down in flames.

Hmm, bit of a let down? Alot of people were asking who the reflection killed, as if it were a big thing. I do actually have a plot basis for this. But I hope and think a few of you would be surprised.
