Premise[]

Rumors have it that the large mirror in the corridor can allow your reflection to come out and take your place. After accidentally causing part of the mirror to break, a young girl starts noticing a bunch of strange occurrences with her classmates.

Yomi's Introduction[]

Yomi stands near a desk with a small mirror frame. She greets the readers and mentions how today's story involves mirrors and how a lot of schools probably have a large one somewhere. She tells the readers to look into the mirror.

Summary[]

Miyuki is observing an old mirror in the corridor while her friend, Kumi, tells her about a rumor that the person looking back at her isn't actually her, but someone from the Land of Mirrors. At night the reflections come out, and if someone harms the mirror something bad will happen to them. She continues to tease Miyuki as a classmate walks by and accidentally bumps her. He warns the girls to be careful and leaves, with Kumi remarking that Araya is handsome, but weird. He actually believes the story about the mirror and spends a lot of time doing research on it.

Wanting to seem brave, Miyuki declares no belief and taps the mirror in a spot where Kumi is standing. She expresses annoyance at this, but after Miyuki finds a crack she begins to panic. Kumi quickly calms her before leading her away.

The following day Miyuki arrives to find Kumi has an injury in the same spot the mirror was cracked. She begins to tease Miyuki again but assures her it's nothing serious. But she finds it hard to focus during class and follows after Kumi and their other friend in the hallway. Nako suddenly screams and Miyuki reveals herself, approaching them with concern. The girls claim nothing is wrong though, and she is startled by their blank expressions. She also notices that Nako's ponytail and Kumi's beauty mark are on the opposite side of their person. She recalls the mirror story and thinks it is to blame. These can't be her real friends.

When they seem suspicious of her, Miyuki claims everything is okay and tells them that she needs to use the restroom. She returns to the mirror in the corridor and collapses when stress takes over. As she wonders if the crack caused this she is joined by Araya, who reminds her of his warning to be careful. She asks about the mirror rumor and he recalls witnessing an accident with a classmate. He was standing in front of it when Araya saw the reflection in the mirror begin to move on its own and walk back, falling down the stairs behind them. His classmate fell as well, but when he tried to tell others they didn't believe him. Miyuki assures Araya that she believes it is possible and brings up her friends.

With class nearly over she returns while wondering what she can do to save them. But by now she's beginning to notice some other oddities with her classmates, such as injuries, or how they swapped seating arrangements. She tries to ignore it, but when they turn and give her the same vacant stares Kumi and Nako did, she becomes frightened and runs away. They follow her until she bumps into Araya again, who leads Miyuki to the nearby Resource Room. He calms her down and hands over a bat for protection, reasoning that they have no choice but to break the mirror.

Miyuki agrees and a fight breaks out when they get cornered. Araya holds them off so that she can reach it. She proceeds to smack it with the bat when her friends suddenly appear and tell her to stop. They profusely apologize as she stands in confusion, and they reveal this entire thing was a hoax. Before they could tell her that she ran away; and as this is going on Araya is being told the same information from a friend he was beating up at the time. He explains how the girls came up with the prank, and since it sounded like fun everyone else joined in. Araya releases him and everyone returns to the mirror, where a stunned Miyuki can hardly believe what she is being told. Kumi explains how easy it was for everyone to fake the changes, like a part in the hair or using makeup to conceal or change physical features, and her injury was just a coincidence.

As she begins to cry, Miyuki is relieved to know everyone is okay. They fail to notice the mirror cracking apart further until the cracks spread to their surroundings and skin, and one-by-one they begin to shatter. Miyuki is frightened as piles of glass are left behind, and she recalls the injury Kumi had, and how it resembled a crack. She comes to a realization as Araya watches small chips of glass begin cracking from himself, and she sheds a tear before her body starts to break apart.

Suddenly, the real Miyuki stares at the mirror, now shattered with a bat in her hand. Kumi scolds her for hitting it as they walk away, but Miyuki complains that Kumi was the one who told her to pretend she was playing baseball, so it's not entirely her fault for hitting it on accident. She remarks that the mirror looked angry before it broke apart, and Kumi begins telling their friends the story about the Land of Mirrors.

Reflecting in one of the shards is an eye with flowing tears.
