''You know I'm here, always here, watching you.''
''She doesn't know that. She knows she isn't real...''
''She feels it in her head, in her skin. Burning her flesh up. I should rephrase it. She feels us. We are the same.''
''She does not. She does not. SHE DOES NOT! SHE DOES NOT KNOW HER!''
Her voice rang out clearly through the tangled woods that she had been used to calling her home now. Vibrating from her throat in a horrible screech as her eyes focused on the apparition before her. That whispering voice that lurked in the back of her mind, taunting her and telling her things she didn't know if she could refuse or not. Making her uncertain of her decisions and of others around her. The hazy mirage that looked like her and yet she knew that it wasn't her and she just wanted whatever it was to be gone. It stalked toward her and she recoiled as if she was about to be struck. A laugh emitting from her throat or was it her own? She was confused and shook her head before she turned her eyes away from the woman trying to think through this situation. It had happened before and she had managed to break free of it and she had told no one. ''Trying so hard to not accept her fate. He opened the door, we have come to claim our rightful place.'' The mirage was close not, warm and near her face. Fire licking at her maw and she pressed hard against the tree. A tree that was slowly smoldering and burning as her own heated body started to catch it on fire.
