I stare at the empty search bar on my desk top. I've racked my brain time and time again trying to figure out how search for what Ben is but all I can think of is "evil elves" or "elf with bleeding eyes".
I run my fingers through my hair in frustration and glare at my laptop. I know that Ben is watching me. At this point, I've just assumed that he is always watching me when there is an electronic in the room.
I stare at the blank space for a few more moments before typing in "evil elves" and hit 'enter'. Moments later a Wikipedia article pops up called "Dokkalfar and Ljosalfar". My curiosity peaks and I click on the link.
I skim the article and I get the gut feeling that I have found something important. The article says that there are two kinds of elves according to Norse mythology, one dark and the other light. The dark one feeds off of pain and makes people sick. They usually are depicted with black eyes, pale skin and feel clammy.
I think back to Ben. When he cries his eyes get darker, his skin is cold as hell and he's very pale.
I quickly search "Dokkalfar" and click on the first think that I see.
The elves were also blamed for bad dreams, sudden paralysis and anything else that went wrong in everyday life.
There's nothing else on the web page and when I go through the other pages all I see are video game related things.
I shut my laptop and place it back under my bed, lay back and close my eyes.
Then my phone goes off.
