MIRROR, MIRROR by David Siegel Bernstein & Susanne Shay

The last thing Cole remembered was going to bed, alone, after more drinks than advisable at the Muddy Charles pub. Then, he woke up to the insistent beeping of what sounded like his alarm clock. At least, he thought it was his alarm clock. It beeped like an alarm clock, but he couldn't see it through the thick gray fog enveloping him. He tried to move through the haze, but could barely keep his balance. He didn't know which way was forward, or even which way was up—there were no points of reference—no walls, no ceilings, no anything—just the thick gray haze.

He kept calling for help, but his voice was muffled. Even to his own ears, it sounded distant. And, there was no answer, never an answer. Overcome with terror, he screamed.

The screaming helped, sort of, because he saw some movement from far in the gray. He ran towards it. Or rather he believed he was running; he couldn't be positive because, when he looked down, he couldn't see his legs—only gray mist. But, he seemed to be getting closer to the movement—it was less amorphous, more focused, but still unclear. He finally stopped when the movement failed to get any clearer—it looked like a flickering image being filtered through Coke bottle lenses.

He could just barely make out what looked like rippling water and a shiny white blob.
