I saw this thing on the Internet, Mary very bloody, or something like that.
And hey, I figured why don't I try it? I rounded up a friend, and we saw what we could do.
"C'mon Poppy!" I said, calling her from my room.
"I'm having second thoughts," Poppy said, chewing her thumbnail, a thoughtful look on her face.
My face dropped, I can't believe her! She's always the party pooper! Not a single thing would she do without checking if it was safe first!
"Ok, fine, do what you want. I'm doing it, and you can't stop me," I said firmly.
"Fine," she answered, "But I'll stay near the door and come in if anything shady happens, I'll come in."
"Great," I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm.
Poppy sighed, but did as she said she would do.
I walked into my bathroom and closed the door. I stood near my Hollywood-style mirror, with bulbed lights all around it.
"I'm starting!" I tell Poppy, and she knocked on the door, as if saying she understood.
Strange, I thought, Poppy is more of a talker, why's she so silent?
I shrugged it off and began.
I lit two candles and put them next to the sink under the mirror.
"Here we go," I breathed to myself.
I clicked the lights off, and the dim light of the candles illuminated my face spookily.
I began spinning, one spin... "Bloody Mary." two spins... "Bloody Mary." three... "Bloody Mary."
Thirteen. "Bloody Mary!" I yelled.
"I have your baby! Bloody Mary, show yourself!" I yelled into the mirror, cradling my arms as if I held a baby in them.
I stood in silence, my hands still cradled.
Eh. I guess it didn't work, whatever. I'm not going to cry over it. Guess I better tell Poppy nothing happened.
Then, something did happen.
As I uncradled my hands, and looked at my reflection, the mirror turned red.
No.
Smoke billowed out of the mirror, and engulfed me in a tight grasp.
"No," I gurgled, smoke beginning to fill my lungs. "Poppy! Help!"
A lady, dressed in red, her black hair matted on her face, stood in the mirror, humming.
"Give. Me." she boomed, "My. Baby!"
"I don't have it," I managed to choke out.
"Summon me for entertainment?" she demanded, "Then you must die."
Her smoke filled my lungs, and I took one last look in the mirror, to see her face, and realized, I'd seen that face before. Very recently, in fact.
As I began losing consciousness, I got it.
That face, was Poppy's.
