Nightmare

A

       The weekend had come and Eli went off to a park. What other things did he have to do? He sat down on a bench and watched children play. His white hair threaded through the wind like pieces of a feather. Looking closer into depth, he spots another kid that sticks out from the others. He looks familiar... maybe a little too familiar. It's him.

The little Eli laughs and dances through the toys in the park. Day turns into night and he cant take his eyes off himself. A man soon comes over to the little kid of Eli and picks him up. The man spins Eli in a circle and the aura of it seems so light and carefree. But there's a barrier from where the Eli sits on he bench and the one flying in the air like an airplane.

One doesn't laugh.

And both of their smiles are now different.

From a deal with the devil to a will of life and rebirth, the white haired Eli just watches. A deep sorrow overcomes his body as his shape returns. His true form. His eyes turn glass and cut his flesh eyelids, and his nails hug his body, seeking to give comfort.

But maybe his new friend won't leave him this time.

Because they are now both one.
