MPC 30: Me and my shadow
Reward requested: Bits
"Where are we?" Katsura asked. A reasonable question indeed. Katsura and Nyao the gatomon walked through a strange place filled with darkness. Nothing, everything was dark.
"I don't know." Nyao answered."How did we get here?." Katsura quivered, a minute ago they were home with Calysta and now they were in this strange place.
"I don't know." Nyao answered again.
"How do we get out?" Before Nyao could answer the question, Katsura noticed something in the distance. A light maybe, it was at least something. Having nowhere else to go Katsura and Nyao walked towards the object. As it turns out open closer inspection, it looked like a mirror. But something was strange about the mirror. Nyao didn't have a reflection, Nyao tried walking right in front of the mirror even waving like a mad person, nothing. Nyao was like a vampire to this mirror.
Katsura gently pushed Nyao away to look at her own reflection and that's when she started to notice other odd things. This Katsura didn't have any scars or brushes, her skin was perfect and in the right angle her body looked healthier?
"Who are you?" Katsura asked her reflection as she poked the mirror.
"I'm you" A confident voice replied from the mirror. Katsura flinched in shocked.
"What?!" Katsura and Nyao yelled in chorus.
"Or the you, you should have been." The girl in the mirror said.
"Huh? Wha... What do you mean? And where is Nyao then?" Katsura was very confused now. The reflection shocked her head while smiling overbearingly.
"I don't need a digimon, I can handle everything by myself like our father. He had it coming."
"No that's... I didn't mean to, don't say those things. It's complicated."
"It's true, I know it."
"That's enough." Nyao said angrily as she drove her sword, the girl in the mirror just giggled.
"Hehe oh that won't do, let me fix that." The girl in the mirror waved her hand and Nyao frooze on the place.
"Nyao!" Katsura screamed in fear.
"What did you do to her!?"
"Oh nothing you won't have wanted, Don't you wish Nyao won't fight all the time. Haven't you ever tried holding her back?"
"You... Don't know what you're talking about."
"If I had done this sooner you would never had to fight guilmon and that event with galantmon would have been a dream."
"Stop it... Please."
"Stop what? This is who you are supposed to be. You want to control things, you manipulate digimon and humans alike and even control them. My pet Liliana knows that."
"Pet, but Liliana is I mean Scarlet is."
"Oh please, like you didn't enjoy that kiss. I'm the best Katsura you could be. I didn't get a digimon I got the power to fix things. Make friends with everyone, use everyone when I need something. That's why we both still con people isn't it."
Katsura fell down before the mirror, she was starting to cry on the floor. This was too much.
"You... You you're... wrong... I love my friends I won't do anything to hurt them... And Alexis... Didn't deserve it."
"What about dad?"
"Stop! Nyao help me please someone!"
"Sigh, I forgot all about it. You don't want powers you don't need it because you got Nyao to fight all your battles for you."
"Wait, I don't have to listen to you, bye."
And then Katsura picked up Nyao and walked away from the mirror. That being couldn't be worth talking to as it would just hurt her. But alas a moment later the girl from the mirror was standing right in front of Katsura.
"Did you really think it would be that easy?"
"What? Umm... I-"
"You can't run away from me, I am you. What would mom say?"
"I don't... Wait how would you know mom? After what happened..."
The girl from the mirror was starting to get nervous, as she covered her mouth. The girl knew she had said too much but the damage was already done.
"Unless... You're not really me are you?"
"What? Ehm of course I am! I'm the perfect Katsura."
"You may be a Katsura, but you're not the Katsura I want to be."
The girl from the mirror was in complete distress and was starting to destabilize. Katsura walked close to the girl, no longer afraid.
"I care about my friends, I care about others. I'm sorry for dad, there's still hope for Liliana. And... Mom... Mom's still out there, I'm sure of it... Even after you know."
Now the girl from the mirror started to cry while her legs was starting to disappear.
This gave Katsura another realization as she put down Nyao.
"Wait, do you even have friends?"
"What of course I do like that ugh digimon you're always around is here too"
"Willis?"
"Yeah right that one, Willis the Piedmon."
"Willis isn't a Piedmon."
"Umm, of course she's that wormon I forgot."
"You don't have any idea who he is. You're the me who doesn't care about others."
"No, I'm not!" the girl yelled with eyes filled tears.
"At least I care about mom! You walk around with that cat and let her do all the work. I can take care of myself!"
While the girl from the mirror was still crying, she was now yelling angrily as she took out her own digidevice, unlike Katsura's this was a dark purple D-scanner. But as desperate as the girl was to impress Katsura as indifferent Katsura was to the revelation.
"Where did you get that from?" Katsura asked calmly.
"That's not important, the important thing is you could have been so much more than... That if you had just."
"I would have been alone, but you know what? I forgive you, I don't know what you have done but you're still me."
Katsura opened her arms and hugged the girl from the mirror. And as she did, the girl from the mirror and the mirror itself started to fade away into gas.
"I'm sorry, mom would have been proud of you."
"You did what you had to, we both did."
And then everything went bright, a second later Katsura looked around. She was laying in her bed, it was 6 in the morning. Right next to her in bed was Nyao the blackgatomon sleeping. Katsura hugged Nyao with all her strength trying to hold back tears, while Nyao was looking at her concerned and surprised.
