Creatures

This is just another one of those random things that I wrote and one that I am actually pleased with. So, here it is.

She looked at the creature opposite of her. This creature was vile looking, green matted fur covered the entire human like body, the eyes were empty orbs of black floating in the pale skin where the face should have been, the teeth itched to let a snarl come rumbling out of the mouth. The putrid smell of this creature was the worst smell that one could even imagine. She turned away, unable to look any longer.
"I will not let you take over. I refuse to give in." she whispered in a shaky voice then continued. "I will never again give you the power to eat me alive," she muttered into the empty air between herself and the mirror, "My grandfather told me never again give in."

What do you think?
It was a writing thing where my teacher gave us a Native American proverb, something about an angel and a devil on your shoulders(I can't remember it word for word), so that kind of inspired me to write this little thing about the "devil" character.
I wanted it to convey the idea that this girl looks in the mirror and can see the horrid character climbing out of her to rest as her exterior, but she remembers her grandfather's last words to her, to never give in.

In all honesty, I just felt like posting something

I hope anyone who has looked at this is having a wonderful start to their week!
