Notes

Ultimate Attorney/ Ultimate Copycat:
There were two sisters, Kamiko and Mahri. They lived in a chaotic home, where domestic violence occurred frequently, typically directed at Mahri, the less intelligent of the fraternal twins. Kamiko suffered abuse, but she was also the Golden Child, and a successful attorney as a teenager. She worked hard to bring criminals to justice, and drove home to hand her earnings over to her parents and listen to her sister get beaten in the back of the house.

Mahri was envious of her sister, but loved her deeply. Kamiko would buy her jewelry and makeup, which she always had to hide. For when we escape, her sister would always say. Mahri had felt useless her entire life, and had no identity, so she would take on the persona of others. Teachers at school, a neighbor, people on the tv, to feel empowered or away from her real life. She had no special talent.

One night, Kamiko had brought home meager earnings, because she had secretly bought a car to take Mahri and herself away with. They had planned this for months, and Mahri had everything she owned tied in an old shirt. She was listening closely, because this was the final night.

Their mother was enraged, highly suspicious Kamiko had used the money on herself. She screamed about how selfish she was.

Kamiko ended up dying, it was an accident, her mother had been choking her in a frenzy, and she was suffocated. Mahri ran into the bathroom and pulled out a picture of a Queen from an old book, and painted her face to match the woman's makeup. She was now a strong and respected royal lady. She wasn't Mahri. That night she escaped.

She stole a suit and a tie. She stole hairspray and perfume. She stole a purse and a bundle of cash. She impersonated her dead sister. She had died and Kamiko had lived. She was able to dye her hair blonde and continue her facade. Continuing her sister's work, she was scouted by an elite school, given the name of the Ultimate Attorney. But she's no lawyer, she's a copycat.

About her:
Mahri is a bit shorter than her twin was, and much skinnier. She has a suppressed vibrant personality, abstractly rebellious. She has a sloppy, cheap star tattooed over her breasts, and two smaller star tattoos on both her wrists that trace the veins up to the main black star. She isn't good with hairstyles, and has choppy, frizzy hair she attempts to calm down with hairspray, which rarely works. She and her twin both had golden eyes. She wears tight black pants, red heels, and a khaki colored suit jacket that's a little too baggy, and half way untucked from her pants. She has snake bite piercings, which confuses her peers, not really understanding why such a modest girl would portray herself as strangely as that. Her hair is naturally black, while her sister's was blonde. She keeps it dyed, but her black roots are still visible, which people normally brush off as Kamiko just preferring blonde hair over black, and keeping it colored that way.

Murder motive:
Obviously, Mahri has a deep seated resentment of her parents, especially her mother. There could potentially be a fellow Ultimate who resembles her, and whenever they snap with frustration, her PTSD is triggered. Later that night, she unbuttons her suit and washes out her hair dye. She pours glitter over her pants and wraps bandages over her flat chest. She ruffles her hair, and grabs a bat. She ditches her sister's persona, for her own, because Mahri wants to kill her mother, Kamiko was too good for that. She catches them alone, after inviting them to the storage closet to discuss the powers of perception she learned as a lawyer, and how to use it in a trial. Then she beats them to death. After this, she tries to cover up the crime the best she can, because she has a new drive to escape and murder her real parents.

Execution:
She's in a house of mirrors and each time she sees one, it shows another "costume" of hers. She's running, because she hears the sound of banging and screams in the background, much like her home life. As she delves deeper into the house, the mirrors start to become shattered and the personas she has copied are rotting. At the end of the house, there is one more mirror. It is fogged up and has a black question mark sprayed on it. As in, "Who really are you?" hinting to how she's always ran away from who she really is. She wipes off part of the mirror and sees a woman behind her. It's her "mother" and she's choked to death like her sister.
