The old antique shop was pretty much abandoned. But hidden inside were several treasures. One of which was a mirror. But not just any mirror. It had a golden frame, and was decked with jewels. Oh, and it kind of had an ancient prince trapped inside. Ever since the spell had been cast on Prince Roman, he'd been stuck here, waiting patiently for his true love to touch his palm and set him free. But he'd lost hope. Several had tried, several had failed, and he felt that he was doomed to spend all eternity here.

Vincent (imma just use that as a name for Violence) snickered as he looked at Patton. He had dared the other to spend the night in the old antique store alone.

"C'monnnn, Patt. It's a dare! You don't say no to that, unless you're a weak little coward. Oh wait- you already are one!"

He laughed along with a couple of his friends.

Patton sighed, looking down at the floor. he was just sitting there and taking it. He held his arm nervously.

"I-I dunno about this guys, it's kind of creepy in there..."

"Ooh, look at me, I'm Patton, I'm a scaredy cat that can't stay in a stupid little shop because I'm too scared that i'll get hurt!"

Joshua (Janus) laughed along with Vincent.

"Come on, you big baby! It's not that hard, just step inside!"

(dhjdnd why am I imagining all of the characters are in like 5th grade-)

Jared (Jealousy) laughed right along.

"Go on, go right on in! Remember, if you don't do it, I won't hang out with you anymore."

Actually, he'd probably drop Patton soon, but that was besides the point.

(sjdhfihdidhej- they're in their 16-17's (Ro's 16), but I love that concept-)

That hit Patton like a ton of bricks.

"B-But you guys are the cool kids...!"

"Uh huh, and if you don't go in there, you won't be cool like us! You'll just be a wimp!"

"B-But..."

Ronnie (Remus) was also there. He had a huge, eating grin on his face as he opened the door and pushed the youngest of the group in the store, locking the door once he was most definitely in. Patton nearly sc•amed as he realized that there was no way out. The others outside burst out laughing.

"I don't want to d•e in here alone!!!!!"

They all laughed for a while, before deciding to leave and see what happens.

Roman blinked at the sight before him. Someone was here..? It had been so long...

It took a while, but Patton eventually calmed down.

"...I just really hope this place isn't haunted..."

He looked over at the mirror.

"Oh wow, that's a very handsome painting..."

Roman felt a fluttery feeling in his stomach. He examined the boy as he copied his every move, as a normal reflection would. He was kind of forced to do that.

Patton tilted his head.

"A moving painting? That's new."

Patton was quite oblivious to the idea of mirrors. He hadn't seen many in his life.

Roman was very confused. Did they not have mirrors anymore..? How were people even supposed to look at themselves, then?

Patton got close to the mirror.

"Huh..."

He poked at the mirror.

"You ok in there, reflection buddy?"

‘No, not really...’ Roman thought. He wondered if Patton would press his palm against the mirror. Then again, he had a theory that the whole “true love” thing was just a lie.

"...You don't say much, do you..."

He took a cookie out of his bag and broke it in half.

"Want some?"

Again, he didn't exactly know how mirrors...worked... much less this one.

Oh, that felt like mockery. Roman was very hungry. He hadn’t eaten anything in centuries, after all.

"Here, I'll just put it in your hand, and..."

Patton put the cookie up to the mirror, holding it in his palm.

Their palms touched. Roman instantly felt a buzzing feeling. Then, there was a flash of light... which resulted in a very dizzy and dazed prince in Patton’s arms.
