I twirled around in front of the mirror in my long sleeved shirt and short pleated skirt that spun outward from the motion.

I paused in front of the mirror with my hands on my hips and tilted my head to the side.

I hadn't modelled in a while and my physique was just going to waste.

I sighed and dropped my hands.

I've been more interested in drawing anyway.

I walked over to my reading table. I'd been spending more time there ever since the Auda fiasco began because somehow it made me forget about everything.

For some reason, since the day started, I've been picturing someone that seemed like Auda in my head.

I didn't really know how he looked. Well, he was  in Trevor's  father's body so he looked like him but this image in my head looked nothing like a regular middle aged man.

It was vague but I could make out some features of it.
It resembled an old demon with horns atop its head. Its skin looked purple and its eyes were dark and terrifying.

It was actually a very reasonable and believable description of what Auda could be like.

And I decided to draw what I saw.

I grabbed a new sketchbook and pencil and sat down.
I tried my best to recall the image and concentrated really hard until I got something like it.

I set the tip of my pencil to the blank page and immediately I drew one short line, my door burst open.

"Ugh!" I screamed and flung the pencil on the ground.

Alex paused in front of the door.

"What is it?" I hissed.

He raised his hands in surrender and began to back away from the room.

"Wait. I didn't mean to sound like an animal. I was just in the middle...well the beginning of something and you just distracted me."

He nodded, walking back in.

"You... wanna talk about something?"

"Mmm, I don't know. I actually just like to come here to think."

"Okay...sure go ahead and think..."

I grabbed another pencil and placed it on the surface of the paper.

"What'd you think?" he asked and I sighed heavily.

I broke the pencil and dropped it on the paper.

He chuckled.

"What's funny?"

"Seeing you pissed."

I pursed my lips and widened my eyes at him.

"Are you gonna tell me what you wanna say or what? I'm trying to draw here!"

"Well, I asked you the question," he stated, looking unfazed as usual.

True.

I tried to recall what he asked me.

"Oh yeah. Um what do I think about what?"

"This whole Trevor situation."

I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Do you like Trevor?"

He recoiled.
"What? No!"

"So why does almost everything you say have to do with him?"

"That's not true. It's just... almost everything seems to revolve around him."

I nodded, "yeah, and it needs to stop."

He folded his arms and walked over. He looked worn out with the faded blue t-shirt and grey sweats he had on.

"What's up with you? Do you know what he's going through at the moment? Feeling jealous of him is not the most reasonable thing to do right now."

"You know, you always act like you have such a good heart and you're always nice to him but you know that you don't like him. You're jealous of him. He's better than you in most ways and you don't like that. And when Chang told us all to stay away from him, you were so happy because you get to kick him out of the team and make it seem like it's because of Chang's orders.

"You know he's going to get that scholarship and if he's not on the team, there's no way he could get it. And now he's gone...that leaves the second best player."

"Shut up."

I narrowed my eyes at him as he swallowed and stared hard at the ground.

"You're my twin brother and you can be sweet to me sometimes but you're honestly a horrible human being."

"Lex."

"You know I'm right. You're selfish and rude... people are trying to like you but you make that so hard!"

"Alexa."

"You're a bad person–"

"Like that's my fault?! You didn't get bullied as a child. You don't know what it's like! Mom and dad were never around–"

"We have the same parents," I said, trying to keep my voice calm. "I didn't end up like a monster..."

I stopped when I saw tears streaming down his face.

"Lex, I try my best not to be," his voice cracked and I held my palm over my mouth. "I really do and it's harder than you think. It's honestly not my fault that I'm like this."

I stood up from the chair and walked over to him but he held his hand out for me to stop.

"It's okay, you're right. I'll try my best to be a better person... I promise."

"Alex." He brushed past me and walked out of the room.

I shut my eyes and sighed heavily before walking back to my table to start drawing.

I scribbled furiously on the paper for a whole hour or what seemed like one anyway then I dropped the pencil and gazed at my masterpiece once I was finished.

Wow, that is beautiful and scary at the same time.

I really hoped that wasn't what he actually looked like.

The eyes didn't look as dark as they did in my head and I decided to shade it more.

Once I put the pencil to the eyes, my vision went out.

At first I thought I passed out but I was still conscious... just not able to see.

"Alexa."

My heart stopped.

"Alexis?"

The voice cackled.

"Why, that's a beautiful drawing you have of me there. Let's have a chat."

I screamed as a replica of the image I drew came to life in my head, it's eyes glowing deep purple and it's hoarse, alien voice bellowed.
