I heard Leighla’s thoughts greet the new person as she came into the room, “Alice.”
Then I heard Alice, “His name?”
I thought hard as I could, “Taran”.
Alice looked at me, “We need to leave now, Taran. They are coming.”
“Where are we going?”
“Through the looking-glass, where else?” Alice then turned to Lieghla, “You need to go somewhere safe. Now. They are coming.”
Leighla nodded, and quickly left the building. I heard the door lock behind her.
Alice grabbed my hand, as she stepped back into the hallway in the mirror, dragging me after her. I’d never stepped into a mirror before. We walked down the hallway until the room behind us disappeared. We came to a door, with a big lock and key. Alice used both hands to turn the key. The door opened, and she stepped through, dragging me behind her.

This piece is the fourth in a continuing story I’m working through for Angela Goff’s Visual Dare. Please read the other entries in this week’s Visual Dare challenge. I like all of them.
Hauntingly good!
It’s that you are managing to continue the story, as I’m loving every snippet.
Ahhhh I love these VisDares that continue. It’s like getting my weekly fix from a favorite television show. Can’t wait to see what happens to Alice and Taran next!!
Neither can I…
