[ WP ] Your whole life you 've been able to see other dimensions through mirrors . It was always interesting to see the other dimensions and their variations , that is until all the mirrors started to black out .

Strange. The office bathroom usually reflected a version of me as a cowboy, but there's nothing now. Like complete darkness. 
 
 I turned to my friend Phil and asked, `` Hey Phil, is there something wrong with this mirror?'' 
 
 Phil shook his head. `` The only thing wrong with it is that ugly face of yours.'' 
 
 `` Thanks pal.'' I was the only one who could see the variations so nothing about the mirror was unusual to Phil. He could see the reflection just fine normally, so why was it gone for me? 
 
 Curious, I made my way to the next mirror. The one above the sink. In this one I was a cyborg from what I recalled. However, it was pitch black as well. 
 
 `` Phil, you sure there's nothing wrong with the mirrors?'' 
 
 `` Nah man, if you're worried you gained a little weight, its your fault. Do n't blame the mirrors.'' He replied as he began to wash his hands in front of the mirror where everybody was a jelly-like humanoid. He looked at his reflection and smiled a bit to check his teeth. 
 
 I started washing my hands as well. `` No man, its not that. Remember that one time I told you I could see weird shit in the mirrors, like an alternate reality?'' 
 
 `` Did n't you tell me that when we were smoking something?'' 
 
 `` I was being serious, I can see different realities and shit.'' 
 
 `` You sure you have n't been smoking on company time?'' 
 
 `` I'm employee of the month Phil.'' I gave him an annoyed look. 
 
 `` Okay so you're not on something right now. Let's say I believe you. What's different now?'' 
 
 `` The mirrors, they're all blacked out. I ca n't see anything in them anymore, not even myself.'' 
 
 `` For real?'' Phil pulled a paper towel and wiped his hands dry. 
 
 `` Yeah not a thing, its like looking in a black hole except there's nothing.'' 
 
 `` Well, you sure there is n't anything in them? Maybe you're not looking hard enough.'' Phil suggested. I turned my gaze to the mirror and tried looking around. Phil saw me take his advice seriously and gave a little half smile. `` You trying to play me real hard man. That ai n't cool.'' 
 
 I continued to stare into the abyss, trying to find some sort of sign or something that could explain why this was happening. Then I noticed it, a discoloration. There were lighter parts on the mirror than the rest of it. `` Hey, you got like a highlighter with you or something?'' I asked Phil. Phil rummaged through his pockets and pulled out a pink highlighter. `` Really Phil?'' 
 
 `` I borrowed it from the lady at the front desk this morning.'' Phil said. 
 
 `` Ah, whatever.'' I began to trace over the lighter parts of the darkness and an image soon formed. What was left was a handprint made from highlighter. I turned to Phil and we both remained silent. I went to the next mirror and did the same thing, but this time something else showed up. 
 
 *HELP* 
 
 `` That's pretty artistic of you man, but do n't you think the joke's gone a little far? I'm a little creeped out right now.'' Phil said nervously. I went to the last mirror and found the last message. 
 
 *RUN* 
 
 The lights flickered and the walls rumbled. Phil looked at me. `` C'mon man, this seriously is n't cool. I've been binge watching horror shit on Netflix. This is a prank right?'' 
 
 `` No its not Phil, I think we should actually ru-'' 
 
 The mirror I was in front of cracked and knocked both of us on our asses. Five huge lumps protruded from the mirror as shards fell off them. `` What the hell is that shit!'' Phil shouted while pointing to the mirror. 
 
 `` I-I do n't know,'' I stammered, but then I noticed a terrifying pattern. `` I-its a, its a hand Phil. I think something tried to grab us.''
