It took a few minutes before I realized what had happened. "What have I become?"
"What you always wanted to be." a voice spoke from within me.
"No, this is not what I wanted."
"You wanted power, revenge, respect. To be feared."
"Not like this!"
"Too late."
"No! Its never too late!"
"Look in the mirror sometime kid. It is too late."
I went into the restroom and gazed into the mirror. "What shadowy spell is this mirror cursed with? That is not me."
"Yes, it is. Haha!"
Purple mist streamed from green, omnious eyes. My eyes. My gray horn was tipped with red. Fangs dropped down from withnin my jaw. "I... its just not... can't be...its not me."
"Its you improved."
