Candace

As Candace moved to slice the monster’s other throat, she felt a steely grip wrap around her upper arms and lift her off her feet. In an instant she was whipping backward, her hallway and bedroom walls whizzing by at an otherworldly speed. She had time to realize that something supernatural had hold of her as she heard glass break. She only registered that they’d smashed through her bedroom window as she watched shards of glass fly outward from the air as she was pulled away from the house.

Something was holding her tight, binding her upper arms, as it flew backward though the night. She looked down at the ground beneath her feet, only a blur under starlight. She realized that she still had the knife. She clenched it, and in one swift motion Candace jerked the lower part of her knife arm up and sliced at one of the arms that held her.

Candace heard a surprised shriek of pain, and the grip on her loosened. She sliced the other. She sliced again and again until she felt the arms let go of her. A shriek of shocked fury ripped through the night.

And then she hit the ground, a spike of pain shooting through her hip. She rolled over and over, and finally stopped. She was disoriented, and it took a few seconds to push herself up to her knees, and then to her feet. She frantically looked above her for the thing that had held on to her, bulleting through the air. She turned, and then she saw it.

The female had landed a few feet in front of her, and it was like looking in a mirror.

She was staring into her own eyes. A chill went through her.

Her duplicate smiled at her, and Candace had a second to stare at her before her copy kicked the knife from her hand, and grabbed her by the throat. Candace hadn’t even seen her move.

Within seconds, the world faded away.
