The Knocking On The Mirror
Sharing A Dream
After a week, Joanna was completely worn out.
Every night she had the same dream over and over. But having to see it every night didn't make it any less scarey.
She couldn't catch any sleep at all. Dark circles took form under her eyes.
She had described her dream with April, but she had no idea what was happening.
Joanna was laying on bed, with April by her side.
She didn't dare to close her eyes.
Joanna
*I know if I close my eyes...you'll be there... waiting...*
April (bff)
Maybe It's a memory.
April (bff)
The dream you keep having.
April (bff)
You said that you think your sister was murdered, and now she's here asking you to "get her out"
Joanna
You're saying that she's been showing me the memory of her getting murdered!?
Joanna felt like throwing up.
April (bff)
Yes... That's what I think.
April (bff)
She's been buried somewhere... and she wants you to get her out and give her justice.
April (bff)
She kept calling out to your dad, right?
April (bff)
Maybe he'll know something.
Joanna
You're right! I'll call him now.
Joanna reached for her phone and dialed her dad's number.
After several beep sounds, he finally answered.
Joanna put it on speaker mode
Eric (dad)
Hello sweetie. How are you?
Eric (dad)
That's good to hear.
Joanna
Uh... dad? I have something to ask you...
Joanna
It's about...Duana...
Eric (dad)
What about her?
His voice was cold and heavy.
Joanna
I...uh... When did you last see her?
Eric (dad)
Yes. What are you doing? Why are you asking me such questions?
Joanna
N-nothing... Just curious...
Joanna
I had a feeling that maybe you were the last to see her...
April looked confused as well.
Joanna
Do you think... that she's still alive?
Eric (dad)
Where are these questions coming from?
Eric's voice turned softer
Eric (dad)
Yes, I hope that she is.
Joanna
Mhm. I've like to meet her as well, I feel a connection with her, even though she disappeared before I was born...
Eric (dad)
Mhm. Now if you're done I have to hang up.
April (bff)
I think he's hiding something.
April (bff)
It could be that he already knows that Duana might be dead, but he's keeping it to himself for you and your mom's sake?
April (bff)
He's afraid of the mention of the police's name...
April (bff)
... I don't know.
Joanna
Ahh! This is frustrating!
Joanna
I'm sleepy, and I can't sleep!
April (bff)
All we need to do is to put all these clues together and try to figure out what had really happened.
April (bff)
It'll be over, I promise.
April (bff)
Now let's take some sleep, alright?
April (bff)
You wake up every time before he actually "kills" you, right? It's gonna be okay.
April (bff)
Plus, I'm gonna be here the whole time.
They closed their eyes, holding hands, and after a while they drifted to a deep sleep.
She was in the same familiar place
But... something was slightly different
Instead she was standing still in the middle of the woods...alone-
April (bff)
Where is this place!?
Joanna was shocked, she turned and saw April standing beside her, holding her hand
Joanna
You... What are you doing here!?
Joanna
April... This is... what are you doing in my dream?
April (bff)
Your dream? Wait, THIS is your dream? The one that Duana gets mur-
Suddenly a sound of footsteps could be heard, running their way.
The girls turned to see a girl running toward them
Her face was pale, she was bleeding from her head which made he long dark hair to stick to her head. Her arms and legs seemed to be bruised.
April (bff)
She's your sister?
Joanna watched her sister's pale figure as she ran for her life.
April (bff)
I can't believe it...
April whispered... her figure was trembling slightly.
April was still in a daze, but she composed herself
April (bff)
Sh-Should we... follow her...?
Joanna started trembling uncontrollably
April rushed to her side, putting her hands on her shoulders.
April (bff)
This voice... is it...?
The voice got closer, they could hear his footsteps getting nearer
Joanna grabbed April's hand and ran after Duana
Joanna was scared. She didn't want him to catch her by the hair again, to drag her, to kill her.
They eventually got closer to Duana, so did the man running closely behind them.
The man ran past April and Joanna.
As Joanna saw the man's back view, she stopped and dropped to the ground.
April was terrified too. She had no idea what was going on.
The man caught up to Duana and grabbed her hair and dragged her with him.
April watched in horror as all this happened right before her eyes
She had her arms wrapped around the trembling Joanna, and her eyes fixed on the screaming Duana
April (bff)
What in the world....?
The man dragged Duana away and they got further away from them, but Duana's piercing screams could be heard.
He was wearing a hat and it was dark, so April couldn't see his face... But something about him seemed familiar
Joanna
He's going to the cabin...
Joanna said with a shaking voice
April (bff)
We can follow them and see where he buries her!
Joanna
Yeah, just let me catch my breath...
After a minute, they both got up to follow Duana and that man.
April (bff)
How do we find them?
Joanna
The trails. She scratched the ground as she was struggling...
April (bff)
So, we just have to follow that...
They followed the trail left behind until they reached the cabin.
Duana's voice could be heard from the inside
April (bff)
This place is creepy...
Joanna
I can't go in there
April (bff)
It's okay, I understand. we just have to wait outside for him to come out...
April (bff)
Then we'll follow him to see where he buries the body.
Loud and painful screams of Duana didn't stop
It send chills down their spines, and being alone in the middle of the woods in darkness didn't help
The girls sat down and leaned against a tree as they waited, listening to the painful cries of Duana
After a while, the screams stopped.
The man got out of the cabin, he was carrying a body over his shoulder, Duana's body.
Her clothes was painted red by her blood
Joanna looked away. It could've been her... In her dreams, it was her...
April wrapped her arm around Joanna
April (bff)
We need to follow them
Joanna
Alright, I'm fine...
They followed after the man, expecting him to bury Duana somewhere around the cabin, but to their surprise, he threw her in a car
Joanna
He's not burying her here?
April (bff)
We can't follow along like this!
The man closed the door and walked around the cabin to get inside again.
April grabbed Joanna's hand and ran towards the car
Joanna
What are you doing!?
April (bff)
We're going to get in the car
April (bff)
This is the only way!
April (bff)
This is just a memory. He can't see nor hear us, so he can't hurt us.
April (bff)
This all had happened in the past
April (bff)
Do you want to end this nightmare or not!?
Joanna stayed quiet and followed along obediently.
They reached the car, opened the door and sat in the backseat of the car, waiting for the man.
Both Joanna and April were shaking
The man came back, he opened the door to the driver's seat and got in.
Joanna and April didn't dare to look at him, specially Joanna
