Alfred ran to his room with a big smile on his face, Arthur's the bestest-opps, I forgot Arthur said that wasn't correct grammar.

The young boy set down his toys on the floor and began to examine each one.

All the soldiers were dressed up in British uniforms and had different expressions.

Alfred picked up one with a big grin, Arthur's the best big brother ever! He made me all these cool toys and took the time to make them different! He's the best! He must really love me!

"Fool, he's only using you for your land."

A shiver ran down Alfred's spin and he slowly turned towards the wall behind him.

It was him.

But not him.

His eyes didn't look like that.

His voice didn't sound like that.

"I'm Billy."


Billy, as he called himself, was identical to Alfred in almost every way. He wore the same white dress shirt with the brown suspenders and green vest. The same white socks and black dress shoes. The same red ribbon and unkempt blonde hair with the stubborn cowlick. The same slightly tan skin and sky blue eyes-no. Billy's eyes weren't sky blue. They were darker. A dark ocean blue that rivaled that of the evening night sky. The pupils were smaller-mere pinpricks in a sickly dark ocean.

Alfred couldn't move, couldn't even breathe.

The boy-no, the thing in front of him was too terrifying.

Too horrific for words.

It's voice was taunting and malicious, "Yeah, Arthur only wants you for your land...he doesn't care about you-only your territory."

His voice came out in a squeak, "T-That's not true..."

"Believe what you want Alfred, but Arthur only wants you for his own gain. Think about it, why do you think he's trying so hard to win you over? He wants you to be blind so he can expand his territory while you play in the yard with stuff that he made. You're being used. You're becoming blind."

That smile wasn't normal. In any sense of the word. No one smiled like that. No one could smile like that. A smile that threatened to split their face in half with a row of sharp teeth...

Alfred screamed.


TADA! The moment you've all been waiting for!

Tune in next time!
