Dark parallel trap

Chapter 19

"Does he think that I am here?" Frank whispered. "No, but we better get out of here while we are still hiding." Owen said as he held out his joystick like device. Frank brought out his joystick device. "I know that you've put a digital clone viewer lens on me Frank! You better not be stealing my equipment!" Owen's doppelganger yelled as he tried to push the door open. Owen pressed the button on top of his joystick like device. He could hear the sound of the bells of his high school. Frank slowly faded out of sight. Owen noticed that he to, was pressing the button on top of his device. Owen teleported back into his own bedroom. He opened the closet, and nothing was out of place in his room. Owen carefully left his backpack and the devices he was holding in his hands and pocket in the closet. The only thing that he did next is to put every gizmo in his backpack. Owen must be imagining how much angry his twin is feeling after having to fight his way in through the barricade into his room. Owen was happy that his twin might not be able to do anything bad for a while.

He went into the living room. Francine was relaxing on the couch. "Thanks for helping me with the laundry. You are pretty good for a beginner." She spoke. Owen said "Thanks" and hoped that nobody noticed that he was gone. Carter was playing with his toys in his room. Owen asked himself if his twin was going to make him evil. Owen was well relaxed and didn't have any problem trying to forget the plan that his family's twins were preparing. Besides, most of the technology that would allow his twin to travel to his world is in his backpack. He also knew that he couldn't turn invisible with the technology kept in his backpack. Owen knew that he shouldn't be holding onto the gizmos for long. His parents might find them and might want to take away these devices. It was calm for the rest of the day. Owen had a nice supper with his family. He did not have to worry about school or having to do any homework since he's finished it. Owen went to bed and was happy that it will be the last that he will have see his twin. He continued to think that he wouldn't have any problems from his double. During the morning, about one minute before 6 am, Owen could feel somebody breathing on his face. Owen just felt it might be somebody in his family that might be trying to pull a prank on him. "Just let me sleep for a few more minutes. It's not time to get for school yet." Owen moaned as he tried to get back to sleep. The person breathing on him vanished. Then there was light that came on. Owen tried to block the light with his hands and arm. "Could you turn off the light? I'm trying to sleep here!" Owen hollered. He had his face facing away from the light. The light was not turned off. "I said, turn off that light, it's not time to get up." Owen shouted, feeling frustrated.

"Come on Owen. Let's have some fun." The voice that spoke that sounded exactly like Owen's. This sent a shiver down his spine. He got up and sat on his bed. He screamed when he saw who else was standing in his room. It was his doppelganger. He was smiling as he stood next to the door of his room. "Did you have a nice dream?" Owen's twin asked. He simply slowly approached Owen. Owen threw his blankets on him. He then pushed him, and the double fell to the floor. He struggled to get the blankets off him. Owen ran to the door and opened it. The knob won't turned. The door was stuck. It couldn't detach itself from the frame. It was almost as if somebody glued the door to the frame when Owen went to sleep. "You can't escape me Owen." His twin smiled as he looked at him. "What did you do? Glue this door? Mom! Dad! Help!" Owen screamed. "They can't help you Owen. I've managed to make your room secure so it would be as if nobody could help you. And you cannot escape." His double explained. "How are you making this happen? I stole your technology! You shouldn't be standing in my room!" Owen yelled. "Fortunately, the principal gave me a spare parallel dimension traveling device. And I have a device that you don't know about that is making your room a prison." The twin got himself standing and steadily marched towards Owen. Owen felt that he should be making sure that his twin should be staying in his own universe for good. "What's the matter Owen? It's not like you're having a good day or anything. I am having a great day. Because it's the day where I can turn you into a bad boy. The school would so want me to do more great things for them. Oh, the great things that could come out of this is endless!" Owen's twin spoke to himself excitedly. Owen wrestled his twin to the ground. Although his twin is a great of an athlete just like Owen is. "I do play sports at my school. There's no way you can beat me at any sport." Owen's double uttered as he tried to push Owen off him. Owen's twin tried to reach for his device that would make him invisible with one hand, while he used an arm to hold Owen at bay. Owen grabbed the wrist of his free hand and also is pushing his arm up against his twin's arm. The doppelganger gritted his teeth as struggled to push Owen off him.

Owen's twin soon had the upper hand. He started to push Owen off him bit by bit. Then Owen pushed hard back against him. The double surprised Owen by pushing his arm with the hand he was using to grab his invisibility gadget. Owen was sitting on the ground facing his twin. Owen's twin got himself sitting to. "Tell me, is Frank helping you out?" Owen's twin demanded as he leapt from where he was sitting on the floor and lunged at Owen. Owen rolled on the ground and his twin landed on the area of floor that he had rolled away from. "What do you know about Frank? I don't know what his big problem is either. All I know is that somebody framed him for being a bully." Owen responded as reached for the blanket. He speedily crawled across the floor. Before he was about to grab the blanket, something got a hold of his two ankles. Owen looked back and his double had a stiff grip. "He said he was framed did he? That part is true. But did you know who framed him?" He grilled with a smile. Owen had his outstretched fingers touch the edge of the blanket. Owen's twin tried to pull him away from it. Owen slowly had his fingers crawl on the blanket. Eventually, a whole hand got a hold of the edge of the blanket. Owen pulled the blanket towards him. "So, who did framed Frank?" Owen asked as part of the blanket being held onto with his two hands. He sat up and threw the blanket. It fell on top of Owen's twin's face. Owen kicked at the hands that were clenched on the ankles. He broke free and went to get the joystick like device that the had in his backpack. Owen's double pulled the blanket off him. He had a smirk on his face when he saw Owen opening the closet. He managed to get himself on his knees. Owen grabbed a teleportation device and the joystick like device. The teleportation device was dropped into the bag. He then went for the invisibility gizmo that he had in the backpack as well. The twin stood up. Owen had the invisibility device clipped onto his pajama pants. He then turned on the device and made himself invisible. Owen's double had a normal expression. He stared at the closet and the door. Owen's twin waited until he could hear a sound. Owen didn't move. The doppelganger walked over to where he last saw Owen.

"I was the one who framed Frank. I did it with the help from a few teachers of course." He replied. Owen waited until his double was close of enough. The double can feel something grabbing him around the waist. He could feel that somebody was pushing him towards the desk. The twin decided to push back. He could feel the person who was pushing him. He had both of his hands on the person who was pushing him. He reached further and his feet and legs were in the air. Owen felt the weight of his double pushing him down. Owen's twin felt a square like device on the side of the invisible boy. He pulled off the device. Immediately, Owen started to appear. The device that was attached onto him started to become visible. The gadget was put on Owen's twin. He was wearing jeans and a bright red T-shirt that had the words "It's good to be bad". The invisibility device was put onto the jeans that the doppelganger wore. Instantly, the twin disappeared along with the device on his side. Owen felt the double pushing his hands off his side. Owen fell to the ground. "Why did you frame Frank? What good is going to come out of that? I thought that being bad is good at your school." Owen grilled. "As Frank may have told you. It is not that simple. Bullying and anything else bad is banned at our school. However, you can get away with framing somebody that hasn't done anything wrong. I had a few teachers help me out with this idea. You see, I simply used video editing, makeup, and had a few kids from school participate in the idea. I had the kids dressed up in makeup to make it look like it they were being beaten up or bruised. I also had the teachers create a video on the security camera to make it appear that Frank was the guy doing the bullying. The kids who had the makeup on told lies to get him suspended." The doppelganger's voice said from the thin air in front of Owen. Owen still had the joystick like device in his hand pressed the button. "Going somewhere?" Owen's twin wondered as he reappeared again. While Owen heard the sound of the school bells, he could feel himself being strapped down. The joystick like device flew out of his hands.
