Clicking at her keyboard Luna was solely focused on the device in front of her as she finished the last of her homework.
It was a beautiful clear sunny Saturday, and she had planned to use it to the her advantage. She finished her last sentence with happily clicking the period key. Luna did a little dance as she slipped her computer back into her bag, she was having trouble finishing her homework lately and it was not helping her grades at all.
Dropping herself into her bed, Luna let sleep take over her forgetting about the abundance of stress her life had.
"Luna, Luna,Luna,Luna, we need you"
Smoke filling luna's nose stung and burned as she watched the horrific scene in her eyes. Young children dying, dirt and mud everywhere, fires burning more then the sun, pelting hail. Luna felt everything on her.
"What kind of dream is this?"
Asking out loud to know one specific.
Luna felt tugging at her leg, looking down she feel down hard on the ground in shock. The tugging was from a girl who looked just like her right down to a scar by her left eye.
"Luna, you have to help!"
"Who are you, and why do we look exactly the same?"
"No time for questions."
"This is a dream." Luna covered her eyes and closed her eyes hoping she would wake up.
"No luna this is not a dream, this a message."
"No, it's a dream."
"Luna, we ne—
"Awwwww, what do we have here?"
A deep strange new voice spoke from the right of Luna.
The man was dressed in red robes with hints of gold, Luna noticed that some red was definitely not apart of the robe.
"Are you trying to contact each other, that's cute that you think another version of your self will stop me."
Luna still sat down in fear and shock, she was dreaming this wasn't real, why did it feel so real, why was it so painful for her to be here? She needed to wake up soon, but she couldn't, something other then herself wanted her to see this.
The man in red was still standing and smirking looking at the two girls.
"Luna you had so much potential, to bad I'll have to kill you in the end."
"Yeah, you might kill me but I know for sure you won't win this, you'll still die in the end to."
Luna felt the stinging of the sword on her right hand and that seemed to wake up the poor girl.
"What the hell?"
Her room felt different she felt off, that wasn't a dream that was something bigger. Quickly running to the bathroom she sprayed herself with water after turning on the tap.
"I have to be dreaming, it had to be a dream."
Softly whispering to herself.
Back and forth the girl went in her small bathroom.
Taking deep breaths Luna calmed down. Until she felt a fiery burn in her right palm. Shaking she brought her hand to examine it. Her hand wasn't bleeding but there was on obvious scar that looked like it was from a fresh cut that could only be a few weeks old. In finally sunk into Luna's mind that cut was solid proof that it wasn't just a dream and anything that happened to her in that weird stage that she would feel it.
Could that mean she could die, how much could she take?
So many questions ran through her mind.
Knock,knock
Harsh knocks at her door made the poor girl jump while fixing her cut making sure that it wouldn't get infected.
"Just a sec!"
Opening the door Luna was surprised see her ex.
"Tony what are doing here?"
"I came back to apologize."
"Ok.. and?"
"Well I had a question."
"What?"
"Since I apologized I thought that you would take me back."
Huffing loudly Luna began to close the door.
"Wait, please."
"Tony, it's a no you cheated, you apologized even though you probably don't mean it, I just don't want you back, accept it."
"Ok fine at least take a walk with me?"
Luna didn't want to accept but she felt like she should just attempt to let him down easy one more time.
"Ok fine, a short one."
Outside birds and crickets chirped as they went down a beaten down path.
Silence among the two teens was awkward and Luna suddenly regretted going on the walk with Tony.
"Look I did something that I know I can't take back but it's still not going to stop me from doing everything in my power to get you back."
Luna's heart felt torn she knew that underneath it all Tony was a sweet guy but she could never ever take him back after how he treated her. She wanted to get that through his tiny pea sized brain but she knew that she couldn't stop his little antics until he meant someone better suited for him.
"Look Tony you can try and try but I am sorry I'am probably never going to let you back into my life like that."
Tony's eyes lose a little hope,
"One day you'll find someone that you want feel the need to cheat on and hurt like that, I won't shut you out completely but your going to have to except that."
Tony's shoulders go down and he looks at his feet.
"Well I'll walk you back to your dorm, how does that sound?"
"Sounds good."
The pair walk back a bit happier as they head back after clearing the majority of the problem between them.
Tony quickly left after giving Luna a quick hug goodbye.
"See you later."
"See you to."Luna went back to her full body mirror in her room, examining herself.
Luna why can't you just be a bitch and cut him off. Continuing to talk herself in the mirror a habit she had developed at a young age. While she scrutinized herself some more she noticed a strange light blue light coming from the other side. Leaning closer it seemed like the light was illuminating dark figures, unable to decipher anything from the shapes Luna felt worried and what was going on with her mirror. Backing away as her heart was filled with fear her back hit her other wall. Shock and fear was the only thing she could feel as one of the figures became clearer and clearer.
Then again it was an exact replica of herself that came into view, just like in the vision she had earlier.
"Luna, we need you."
"S-s-stay away."
"I know this all seems impossible, and it's crazy but I need you to come with me."
"No I can't."
"No you need to."
"This. Is. Not. Real. "
"Luna, all of this is very real, and all of it is in danger and your the only one who can save this side."
"Stop saying that."
"Luna I know in your heart that you will come and help."
"And why is that?"
"Because I am also Luna".
"None of this makes sense."
Of course it doesn't, but if you take my hand I will eventually example everything to you."
"I don—
Luna was shut up because she saw him again, the man in red and white come up behind the Luna in the mirror.
Luna didn't know what helped her move but she knew damn well it didn't feel like she was doing it on her own. Diving in with all her strength she grabbed the other Luna making sure the man missed his target. Luna was immediately surprised as she felt her body submerge into the mirror. Now that doesn't happen every day. Blue and White flashes filled Luna's eyes as she felt herself go down and down. Nor knowing what was going to happen to her she kept her eyes shut hard and she flew down. She didn't know what happened since she know longer had her other self in her arms. Hoping that she wouldn't hit the ground to hard after falling this long all Luna could do was hug herself as she went down.
