Chapter 10: The Mystery unravels
The Mirror cracked into a thousand pieces from one small hole punched through the glass. Bill had fired his .45 pistol at the mirror after I had screamed, "No." The sound of the glass continuing to crack and got louder. Bill stood there with the .45 still aimed at the Mirror.
"You dumb ass, now were gonna get caught," Donna said as she scrambled to gather her things.
"I heard someone behind that Mirror scream," Bill said still pointing the barrel of the pistol at the Mirror.
"You idiot, it was probably the room next door," Donna spat. Sarahhh lay on the bed in shock and fear from the loud noise the gun blasted. I felt my body for holes because the bullet had to of gone right through me. I guess you can't kill the dead.
The glass still cracked a bit and then started to fall apart a little at a time. A vacuum sound started to ring out as vapors filled the room. The mirror crumbled in pieces to the ground bit by bit. The old Antique Mirror that was in the family for over thirty years. My Mother always said it had magical powers but today its destroyed.
The window (mirror) into the bungalow suite was disappearing as the glass slowly fell piece by piece. I didn't know what to do. I went to the mirror and tried to hold the pieces in place but my hand went right through them. 'Huh,' I reached even farther and my hand went through the wall. I couldn't see the suite or Bill and Donna. The Mirror was destroyed. The glass lay in a thousand pieces on the floor. I put my hand in and out of the wall, testing this strange feat. I can't see anything but a wall that my hand goes through it.
Hearing a low creaking sound I turned and looked back to see the door in my room was opening. "Huh," I was confused, my mind was racing. 'What to do?' I ran to the door and peered down the long hall with lots of doors along its stretched out, walkway. I went into the hall and slowly walked and checked every door knob. They all seem to be locked. After about seven or eight doors, one of the knobs turned. I stopped, I eased into the room and looked around. Seeing another Mirror that peered into another room at the Resort. I saw Rosie cleaning.
"Rosie, ROSIE..." I screamed at the top of my lungs. "The Honeymoon suite, GO...to the honeymoon bungalow...NOW!" I was yelling over and over, Rosie looked around. I knew she heard me when she laid her cleaning rag and spray bottle down and left out of the room quickly.
I turned and ran back to my room that I stayed, I couldn't see anything, the Mirror was broke. I went to the wall and placed my head to it to listen. I went right through it. I was in the room of the Honeymoon suite and my feet were still in my old room. I went through the broken mirror. Slowly I eased into the room and Bill and Donna were going out of the door. Sarahhh lay on the bed still.
"Oh my God, they killed her," I thought as I ran to the bed and tried to grasp Sarahhh but my attempts were futile. I leaned down and gazed at her laying there and saw her chest move. "She's alive," I was relieved.
Then came a knock at the door. "Hello, anyone here? I the lady to clean you room. Hello?" It was Rosie.
"Come in Rosie, NOW...come in." I shouted.
I heard the door knob turn and she entered. Her eyes got wide as quarters when she saw Sarahhh on the bed tied up. "Oh dear," Rosie said as she darted to the bed and turned Sarahhh over. Rosie began to untie her, then ran around the bed to the phone and called the front desk, "I find woman tied up in Honeymoon suite, call policia pronto." Rosie then went back to checking on Sarahhh.
The Ambulance, Police and Administrators for the resort all converged quickly in the honeymoon suite. Sarahhh was rushed to the hospital and the names on the registration were of course John and Jane Smith, according to what I over heard. The Police questioned Rosie several times. I walked over to Rosie and whispered ever so lightly into her ear.
"Their names were Bill and Donna, they did this Rosie. Tell them, Bill and Donna, they'll know who they are." I leaned back and Rosie looked around with a bit of fear, then told the Officers their names. I smiled, they won't get far now.
"Now, for my revenge." I said to my self.
I, Charles Falcon the third, who was murdered at my own estate am free from the Mirror that I became intrapped in when I died. Now I can try to bring to justice the one who murdered me, so long ago now I couldn't begin to say when that was. But My time has come.
I wanted back at Mansion so I began walking but as soon as I took a couple steps down the sidewalk I was walking up the steps to the Mansion. Strange, but thankful, time is a funny thing in the realm of the unliving.
345 Hickory Lane, my home for so many years, I was saddened and happy at the same time. Knowing the estate was sold in an Auction but it was still home. I went right through the front door without a thought as to turn the knob or stop and knock. Went straight to the study as I had done so many times repetitiously when I resided here.
The furniture was different but that didn't matter. I knew my wife was a crazy decorator, never kept stuff in one place to long. Always moving furniture around the Mansion. That's why I had a secret wall safe built years ago.
I walked to the marble slatted wall and gazed into its mesmerizing polished stone. Probably one of the best things I ever did was have this secret compartment built.
I heard voices from the front entrance. A mans deep raspy voice, then the study door opened wide. I was astonished. I couldn't believe my eyes. "Tom White...the Governor?" What the...
I stood back and watched as he walked to his desk sorting through the mail. He tossed some papers on the hard wood surface and settled into his seat. Pushed a button on the telephone and the messages began to play.
"Mr. T, This is Lady Hawk and Raven, we huh...ran into a problem. We still haven't found those documents and Raven...the dumb ass, well he got a little carried away. You shouldn't be concerned though were going on a little excursion that will put us out of touch for a few weeks. You have my cell if you need us. Bye."
