It was a chilly day during winter break; in a house where only two people lived, a young boy and his mother. The rest of the family wasn't with them anymore. The boy was looking for a photo-book for one of his ideas, his name was Elijah. The boy had dark brown hair with matching eyes. Though some things should not be found. 

"Mom!" yelled Elijah while looking through boxes in the attic. "Where is that old photo book, we got from grandma last year?!" 

After getting no response for a few seconds. He began looking again, and after a few minutes he found the book, he was looking for or at least he thought he had. 

"Never mind, I found it." He yelled even though his mother probably hadn't heard him. 

Elijah had to make a family tree for one of his projects. While looking through the book to make sure this was the right one, he found something out of the ordinary; there was a photo of a woman with a weird looking grin on her face. She was placed in a room full of dismembered figures and of what he could make out of were human remains. Frightened, he slammed the book shut. Elijah's mind was full of questions about what was in the picture. Even though he was shaken up, the 16-year-old boy still wanted to find out what that was. He slowly reopened the book to look at the same picture again, but he couldn't, all he found was the same picture only now it looked normal. Now it was a normal women standing in a room. He was frightened and confused. But even though he said the picture looked normal, Elijah could feel the eyes of the women following him. At that moment, his mother called him, scaring him even more than he already was, from downstairs that it was dinnertime. Grumbling, he stood up and left.


 Elijah took the book with him, something in his mind made him take it with him.
