Trinity

~~

I decided to just sit back down and be a good girl for now. I couldn't attack this person because it would hurt me. And she didn't seem to feel any pain at all when she burned her hand. No, it seemed like the only one feeling anything right now was me.

I wasn't just feeling pain either. I was feeling anger, annoyance, rage and an intense desire to protect my family. This person here was laying claim to what was mine and I would do whatever it took to make sure she didn't get her hands on them.

Once I was settled back down onto the log, the other me just looked back with a smile on her face. I would say that it was my face, but that wasn't true enough for me anymore.

Yes, this person looked like me. And yes, this person sounded like me. But I never gave anyone a look that was filled with so much evil. I know that I have never once looked like that. I couldn't make a simple smile become something so sinister looking.

"Stop looking for differences and ways to reason out of this, Trinity. Despite the difference in coloring, I am identical to you. I am a part of you, why can you not accept that already?"

"I refuse to accept it. I refuse to believe that there is this much evil inside of me." That face that was looking at me right now smiled the widest that I had ever seen before. It was a grin so evil and so deranged that I honestly thought that it belonged on a deranged killer clown rather than on a face that looked like mine.

"You will understand it all soon enough, Trinity. We will talk it all out and go over all of the stuff that you have done. We will revisit all your most evil moments. And by the time that we are done, you will see where it is that I came from. You will see why I exist inside of you."

"You can try. I know that you won't find anything. I have never done anything that I should be ashamed of. I am a good person. I am a good queen. I am a good wife, mother, daughter, niece, everything. I am not a bad person. Not now and not ever."

"We will see about that, Trinity."

Suddenly, there was a bag next to the other me's feet. This bag looked as if it were made of some type of animal skin and it was quite large. The bag was filled with something and sat propped up against the log where it stood as tall as the other me's knee.

"What is that?" I felt compelled to ask.

"This will help us to see into the past. If you are going to learn where I came from, then you need to see what it is that you have done in the first place." She was reaching into the bag with her right hand as she spoke, her eyes never leaving mine. "I am going to show you, Trinity, what it means to make decisions and what the consequences are. There have been so many life altering decisions that you have made over the years. And it is time for you to understand who it was that you have hurt with those decisions."

Slowly, the other me pulled her hand out of the bag. I noticed that the bag looked like it was silver. It was shining in the light that was coming off of the fire and I could even see flexions in its surface. But how exactly could someone make a bag out of silver? That was almost impossible, wasn't it?

Then there was the substance that was in the other me's hand. She had pulled out a handful of black powder. It looked like it was ground onyx or something. It was glittering and reflecting the light as well, but it was also pure black. That dust was literally the darkest thing in this room.

"It is time to watch, Trinity. It is time to see where the root of your evil all lies. Each incident that put you closer to the darkness, each incident that helped to create me. Watch closely and pay attention."

With a flourish of her hand, the other me tossed that large handful of black dust into the fire. The moment that the dust touched the flames, it started to burn. The fire roared into life and shot toward the sky.

The color of the flames, which I just realized had not been in black and white this whole time, started to change. Instead of the orange, yellow, and red that you would normally see for a fire, the flames were now a dark purple, blue, and black. To be honest, the fire now looked like it was pure evil.

"What the hell?" I gasped and almost fell back off of the log.

OK, I was used to doing magic, but seeing someone do this right in front of me, in a world where my magic didn't work, that scared the shit out of me. I wasn't expecting this to happen and that just startled the hell out of me.

"Calm down, Trinity. I am simply showing you your past. Relax, take a deep breath, and learn about parts of you that you didn't know existed."

I really wanted to smack that face stealer, psychopath, other me in the face. However, I couldn't because I would just be hurting myself.

"Fine, be my guest. Show me what it is that I have done. However, I am sure that you will not find anything that will mark me as evil or sinister. I told you, I am a good person. I always have been, and I always will be."

"I wouldn't be so sure of that, Trinity. You might just discover something that you never knew before." Her grin told me she was looking forward to that.. That evil, sadistic, copy of me.
