Jack walked
alone on the rickety bridge.
The weak
structure let out a moan.
Jack turned to see
a running figure which looked just like himself.
In motion, the
figure slipped on a plank and went over the railing.
Jack ran- an
attempt to save the figure; only to meet the same result as it.
PS:
The figure which Jack sees is a Doppelganger. A Doppelganger is a paranormal
double of a living person. It also describes the sensation of having glimpsed
oneself in one's own peripheral vision with no chance of the supposed
phenomenon having been a reflection. A Doppelganger is regarded by some to be a
harbinger of bad luck and in some traditions, a Doppelganger being seen by a
person's relative or friend portends illness or danger, while seeing one's own
Doppelganger is said to be an omen of death.
For
