Friends with the Enemy

Ep 19:'Fast' Time

"Where do you think Joy went?"Mitch asked.

I look down"i dont know"

Mitch stared at me and his eyes widened

"she's not there right?!"

"I dont know!! But its worth a try if we.. enter"

Mitch jumped"fine..."

I entered my house and it seems like no one has ever live in here for 1 century.

"Check here. I'll check the second floor" i said. Mitch nodded and head somewhere

Now what?

I slowly walk up the stairs and every step I take, my heart began to beat faster and faster.. and faster..

"Please... not here.."I whispered to myself as I look around

"Not here!!"I sighed in relief

But then.. while i reached the bed room, someone hold me by my shoulders

"What a brave little girl"Its him...

"what do you want and where is the younger me?!"I asked him while i removed his hands from my shoulders.

"you mean.. yourself?!"He brought me in a dark place and with a mirror in the center

"do you really want to find out where YOU are?"i glared at him

"Just tell me where is Joy, i mean.. myself..."

"Step in front of the mirror"I followed his command and the mirror changes to the reflection of the younger me

"What.."I placed my hands against the mirror.

Chris' POV
"I wonder how's Joy.."Chris #2 said

"She'll be fine.. i know she is.."Suddenly, i felt a little weak

Chris slowly collapsed while i can see through my hands

Instead of collapsing like him.. im still conscious.. but i disappear..

"Chris!!" i catched him and..

"What?!" Everything seems dark..

i look around and i saw Joy. Looking at a mirror. the younger her is here... but..

"Joy!!" I shouted but there is a barrier between us. Somehow, she can't hear me

"Where am i.."

"well.. your friend over there is looking at the younger her who is in trouble.."

"What do you mean?!"

"You see... you're almost disappearing, which means.."

"I Can do this... i wont give up.. i'll do my best to keep her alive, and to forgive Todd with all my heart.. and of course.. love my enemy"I said

"If you can.. in this place, time moves fast.. because every 1 minute you have here.. is equivalent to one hour.. and.. you only have.. 150 hours left!!

"Grr.."..I tried to move but i think i was 'paralyzed' like some weird spells in video games

"Maybe we should stay here a bit longer.. we have alot to talk about"his annoying presence is the thing i usually hate..

I fell down on the ground. Pain struck me and everytime i move it hurts alot

"Now tell me.. how can you save someone who was falling on a cliff and in the end of it, there were sharp thorns?"He asked

"... he can hold on branches nearby"I said

"But what if there aren't any branches?!"He said as he turned into a fallen AGAIN

"Then God will save that person" i said without doubt

Joy's POV
"thorns.. in the mall" i whispered to myself.. how?!

"Leave that place now!! you are wasting your time!"The younger me said

"what do you mean?"

"Every 1 minute you have, you are wasting 1 hour"

"What?!"

I look to my left side and saw Chris

"CHRIS!!" I shouted.

The mirror broke into pieces and the barrier was broken in place

"Huh?!"

Chris' POV
i heard the Barrier broke and i can now move!! Yay!!

i closed my eyes and breath in.. were back in the city.

"But.. wheres Mitch?"I asked

"...."

"GONE!"No way!! Now what?!

I look at Chris and Todd

"To the mall Chris" Joy said

I nodded and i carried Chris while Todd came with Joy
