Living in Hell
Chapter 2:
The Mirror Room
Evelynn walked down the hall to the mirror room. What was so special about the mirror room you might ask? Well obviously the mirror. The mirror was actually a door to another world. Another world where everything had gone right. There had been no war. The people were healthy; in fact, there were almost too many people.
Medicine and food were hard to come by here. Although, the countries, cities, states, etc. were able to get food more easily. Even if the country was nice, people would thrust food forward in hopes of not being killed that day.
Evelynn unlocked the door to the mirror room and went inside, shutting and re-locking the door. She pocketed the key and approached the mirror. Smiling she placed her hand on the glass. A ripple ran from her hand. "Washington D.C., United States of America."
The mirror began to glow and she passed through.
And then she was gone. The mirror had become what it appeared to be again: just a large piece of reflective glass.
Evelynn fixed her hair and smoothed out her skirt and began walking to the door of the mirror room. She opened it up easily.
These halls, unlike the walls of her house, were brighter, more cheerful, and newly painted. Evelynn blinked a few times to get used to the light.
Evelynn quickly snuck around to the side stairs. Hearing footsteps she stopped and slipped into a nearby room. Her heart raced.
She couldn't get caught. She needed the medicine.
The footsteps soon faded away and Evelynn continued on her way down the steps. "Ha." She whispered, sneeking into the kitchen. Evelynn reached into one of the cabinets and her eyes widened in shock. The medicine was gone!
A gasp escaped her mouth as someone grabbed her arms from behind and pinned them against her back. "Hello there Evelynn, haven't seen you here in a while."
Evelynn remained silent. "Aw come on Evee-"
"Don't call me that!" Evelynn snapped. No one called her Evee. No one except him. "What do you want Maryland?"
"I could ask the same for you." A young teen Evelynn's age sauntered into the kitchen. Her bright blue eyes were accusing and her light brown hair was wet.
"Katie, tell Mary to let me go."
"Hey! My name isn't Mary!" Maryland whined letting her go.
The two D.C.s glared at one another for a moment. Katie spoke up. "What is it this time, food or medicine?" Evelynn said nothing.
"What do you even do with it?"
"She probably uses it to bribe people." Maryland commented.
Evelynn pushed him against the wall and held a knife to his neck. "You will be silent. This doesn't concern you." The Brunette hissed.
Katie pulled Evelynn off her brother and took away the knife. "What the hell?" She yelled.
Evelynn glared at Katie even harder now. "He needs to stay out of matter that do not concern him."
"You can't do this Evelynn! You can't come here and steal our things!" Katie said sternly.
Evelynn sighed. "Please. I need this." She looked up at Katie with her amethyst eyes and said quietly, "Alex needs this."
