Chapter 28: Day One Hundred

Every face in the great hall turned toward my stomach.

I felt it.

The braid woman took a step back from me. So did the smaller of Kyle's old two.

"Three months," Kyle said, coming down the stairs. "Three months I've been telling you. Nothing born here leaves. Now you see it."

The father from Mirror Night let go of the gate bars.

He looked at me. He looked so tired.

I didn't look away.

"Mouse," I said. "Is it time?"

Mouse came out of the wall beside the stairs with her rabbit in one hand and her red ledger hugged against her nightgown.

She walked across the black and white marble on her bare feet.

Every guest stepped back to let her through. Even the dead.

She stopped in the middle of the hall and looked up at Kyle through her hair.

"It's waiting," she said. "The house always tells the truth. Today it wants everybody to see it."

"See what?" Kyle said.

"Daisy," said Mouse. "Can I?"

"Go ahead, baby."

Mouse stamped her foot.

All around the great hall, the mirrors woke up.

The silver in every one of them swam and went clear.

And every one of them showed the conservatory on night one.

The orange trees. The flashlight. The man in the golf shirt, sweating.

In forty mirrors at once, Kyle held up the flashlight.

The real Kyle went white.
