The shattered mirror

The Shattered Mirror

Dr. Emma Taylor had always been uneasy working the night shift at St. Michael's Hospital. The dimly lit corridors and abandoned wards seemed to whisper eerie tales.

One fateful night, Emma stumbled upon Ward 13, a forgotten section closed due to renovations. Curiosity got the better of her, and she stepped inside.

The air was thick with dust, and cobwebs clung to rusty medical equipment. Emma approached Room 13B, where a shattered mirror hung on the wall. As she gazed into its broken glass, a faint whisper echoed:

"You will heal us."

Suddenly, the lights flickered, and Emma saw reflections of patients long gone, their eyes pleading for help.

A chill ran down her spine as she realized: the hospital's darkest secrets were trapped within the shattered mirror.

Emma tried to flee, but the doors slammed shut. The whispers grew louder:

"Heal us... heal us...".

In horror, Emma watched as her own reflection began to shatter, piece by piece.

When the hospital staff found Emma the next morning, she was catatonic, her eyes frozen on the shattered mirror.

Ward 13 remained sealed, but the whispers persisted:

"Heal us... heal us...".

For in St. Michael's Hospital, some wounds would never heal.
