Story
Once upon a time, there were two brothers. The brothers were so alike that they were also different at the same time. One of the brothers were named Elliot The other was Steven. The two were inseparable.

At times, Steven would be seen apart from his brother. Other times, it would be Elliot seen without Steven. Some of the neighbors began to talk about suspicious behavior after the brothers went missing one day.

Elliot and Steven's parents began to worry. Almost a month had passed, and the brothers had still not come home. Until one evening, a week before Steven's birthday, Elliot appeared in Steven's room. His parents were shocked, but relieved that they're son had returned. Except, they wondered where Steven was.

Elliot was unharmed, but he would not talk. His parents would not touch him, or even say Welcome back. Instead, they feared Elliot. Ever since he had returned, he acted with strange behavior. That was not their son.

One night, Elliot's parents crept into his bedroom. They planned to kill him that night. The boy was not sleeping, though.

His eyes were wide opened staring into the abyss. Elliot was sitting up in his brother's bed, the same position he's been in since he had returned. He did not eat, and he never drank. He never blinked, he never breathed. He never left his brother's room.

His parents sighed, and went back into their room. They had failed. Elliot had seen them. As said, he never blinked. But they knew he could still see. It was very much alive, and very much not Elliot.

On the day of Steven's birthday, Steven had returned. His parents did not touch him, nor say Welcome back. They did not trust Elliot already, so why would they trust their other son? But, the father soon began to see that Steven was truly himself.

So, the next month, the boys' parents decided to finally kill their eldest son, Elliot. That night, they went into his room and cried. Elliot was gone. They scanned the room, but he was nowhere to be seen. Until, they finally looked behind them. There stood Steven standing next to Elliot. Elliot then fell to the ground as he was never alive ever since he had reached home.

Steven then took the knife in his hand, and killed both of his parents. He sat them up on his bed along with Elliot. Steven smiled because of his happy, happy family.
