All Chapters of THE REFLECTION GAME : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Chapter 11: Through the Looking Glass Anna’s breath caught as she plunged into the mirror’s rippling surface. The sensation was disorienting—like falling through icy water, the air sucked from her lungs as a weightless pull dragged her deeper. She landed hard on something soft but solid. Gasping, she sat up and took in her surroundings. The ground beneath her hands was covered in shimmering silver grass, and towering trees with metallic bark stretched toward a kaleidoscopic sky. “Mia! Ryan!” Logan’s voice broke through the eerie silence as he tumbled through the portal behind Anna, rolling to his feet with practiced ease. He immediately scanned the area, his dagger drawn. Anna turned quickly to see Mia and Ryan lying sprawled a few feet away. Mia groaned as she pushed herself upright, her auburn hair tangled around her face. Ryan, always the quickest to recover, leapt to his feet and brushed off his jacket like they hadn’t just plunged into another dimension. “Where the hell are

The library had returned to an uneasy stillness, but the group knew better than to relax. The once-chaotic atmosphere had dimmed to a calm, almost oppressive quiet, and the repaired mirror loomed behind them like a silent sentinel. Anna leaned against a bookshelf, her chest heaving as she tried to process what had just happened. “Who could even want to destroy a place like this?” Logan’s eyes narrowed as he scanned the room, his dagger still in hand. “Someone powerful. Someone who knows what this realm is capable of.” Mia, still clutching her satchel, frowned. “But why? What’s the point of collapsing the Realm of Reflections?” “It’s not just about collapsing it,” Logan said, his tone heavy with unspoken worry. “If the mirrors break, the balance between worlds collapses too. That would create chaos across all dimensions, including ours.” Ryan whistled low, running a hand through his hair. “So, we’re not just fighting for our lives—we’re fighting to keep the world from f

Anna’s heart pounded as she watched. Her gaze shifted to the central mirror, which continued to pulse ominously, cracks forming along its edges. Whatever the figure had planned, it was already destabilizing the Heart of Reflections. "Anna!" Mia’s voice snapped her out of her thoughts. "We need to stabilize the mirror again! Do you remember the spell?" Anna hesitated, her mind racing. The symbols she’d activated earlier came back to her, glowing faintly in her memory. "I think I can do it, but I need time!" Ryan gritted his teeth, swinging his weapon at an approaching shadow creature. "We’ll buy you some. Just hurry!" Mia threw a vial at another creature, the glass shattering and releasing a burst of light that made the creature recoil. "Start the spell! I’ll cover you." Anna nodded, running toward the central mirror. The closer she got, the stronger the pull became, as if the mirror itself was reaching out to her. She placed her hands on its surface, the cold, slick texture

The Silver Forest was hauntingly quiet as the group ventured deeper into its glowing expanse. The trees hummed with energy, their silvery branches shifting as if alive. Shadows danced unpredictably on the mossy floor, and a growing unease settled over the group.Ryan tightened his grip on the makeshift club he carried. “This place feels... wrong. Like it’s watching us.”“It probably is,” Logan replied, his voice low as his eyes scanned the area. His dagger gleamed faintly in the silvery light. “The guardians said this would be a test. Stay sharp.”Anna walked slightly ahead, her senses on high alert. The air around her seemed heavier with each step, the melodic hum of the forest turning into an unsettling whisper. She glanced at Mia, who clutched her satchel like a lifeline, her face pale but resolute.The path narrowed abruptly, forcing them to walk in single file. The shimmering light of the forest dimmed as they pressed on, the trees closing in tightly.“Do you feel that?” Mia aske

Logan’s Struggle Logan was backed into a corner, the beast towering over him. Vines lashed out, but he moved with precision, his dagger slicing through the air. “You’re really starting to annoy me,” Logan muttered, dodging another attack. The creature lunged, its massive claws tearing through the ground. Logan rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding being crushed. He spotted a glowing weak spot on the creature’s chest—the same place Ryan’s crystal had hit earlier. “Gotcha,” Logan said under his breath. With a burst of speed, he darted toward the beast, using its vines to propel himself upward. His dagger struck true, sinking into the glowing spot. The creature howled, rearing back in pain, but it wasn’t enough to bring it down. Logan landed hard, his body aching from the impact. “Guess that’s round one,” he muttered, preparing for another attack. --- Ryan and Mia’s Discovery Ryan and Mia sprinted through the forest, the creature’s distant roars urging them to move faste
