Mirrors

It was another late night for Damien as he was doing the weekly patrol of his sector’s border, he kicked a can trying to stay awake. He loved his sleep, but he knew this was part of the job sometimes. He tried to stay optimistic in the late hours even though the partner he was supposed to be working with seemed to be running late. It was cold and quiet, he was thinking about Gamma as it usually did this time of night as it hadn't seemed so long ago that he was gone. For some reason, his thoughts then turned to Adrian the man he had recently met.

He had gotten along with Adrian a lot better than with most people defiantly better than Sage. For some reason, he felt bad for thinking about Adrian right now when he should be focusing. He was so lost in thought pacing the borders, he didn't know how long he had been standing there as it suddenly got even colder. He checked the time on his watch seeing it was now 3 a.m. His hair stood on end knowing this was the best time that spirits and other entities liked to stir along with being at there most powerful. It also didn't seem like his partner, who he was supposed to come along with him on patrol, would not be coming. He wondered if he should call this into the base or go to Sage...as something felt off. He was about to make the call when he felt something was behind him and saw a dark blur moving.

Of no you don't, he thought running after the spirit figuring he could handle one entity before it got into his sector. He ran getting out his weapons ready to exorcize the demon. He was being led into a dark area but managed to corner the demon. He wasn't stupid as he stopped on the edge of the lights ready for whatever entity was there…or so he thought.

"Come out demon..." He said getting angry not wanting to play games. It was too late and cold for this. As the demon stepped into the light Damien saw the face of his old boyfriend, Gamma. A thousand thoughts went through Damien's mind ad he froze. He knew it was a Mirror but he just couldn't find it in himself to hurt even a fake version of his old boyfriend. The demon Gamma's face changed and morphed as the demon went to kill him.
