Chapter 1

I was awoken by the sound of running water ... or was it my

own ragged breathing ? Thoughts began serging into my mind

so fast i could barely piece them into recognizable memories.

where am I ? more importantly how did i get there? .. i

questioned my mind so forcefully expecting somehow to will

an answer.. an abrupt noise caught me off guard and jolted my

body face down on a cold, tiled floor.. the smell of perfume

filled the air .. familiar somehow.. i knew that smell . like

fresh flowers .. at the corner of my eye i could see something

off setting to the very opaque room... with my hands placed

palm down i gently crawled across the floor.. a puddle of blood

drenched a shirt completely red with splotches of Burgundy ...

unaware of what this ment instincts took over and i began to

clean it in a sink full of water .. someone must have been

running the water to have filled such a deep sink like this to

the top .but figuring out who could of done this was least

important in my mind ... I drew a bar of soap continuously over

the blood stains ... everything in my body wanted to clean the

blood from this shirt .. soon i was scratching and tearing at the

shirt scattering the soapy water onto a mirror ... it wasn't

until i noticed my reflection that the impulse to run surged

so hard it almost knocked the breathe out of me .. i couldn't

recognize my own self ... those weren't my eyes .. those weren't

my lips ... but yet they were indeed mine... a certain feeling of

dread began to choke me ... that wasn't my reflection ... it was

my twin sister Violet's .. in that moment the missing pieces

forced their way into my head subsiding my confusion ... and i

never been more scared in my life ... i remembered where i was

and how i got there but more frighteningly i remembered that

my twin sister Violet died 10 years ago ........
