In the small town of aberdeen was a two story blue house with a big wide porch. where Megan would sit with her two children alba and aiden. They were twins. Aiden was the boy. Alba was the girl. They both had black hair and were 10 years old.
Today Megan was watching them play with a red dodge ball that they used to kick back and forth to eachother. Alba got mad because aiden kicked it at her barbie's. She screamed at him and threw a clump of dirt. It missed him.
Megan was rocking back and forth on her glossy red wooden rocking chair telling them to knock it off. Then she went back to reading her newspaper.
After watching them awhile. She told them to stay in the yard. She was gonna put the roast in the slow cooker. Then she went inside.
The two kids loved to go into the woods outback. They weren't suppose to but that never stopped them. they walked up to their white picket fence and pushed it open. Then they ran across the street into the woods.
The wooded area had dead thin trees all around it with bushes scattered all around. They started to run around in it for awhile playing tag. They went further out. than they ever had before. Aiden heard his tummy rumblimg. So he told alba its time to go home. Momma's gonna worry. We've been gone along time. Alba replied smuggly, lets go then bozo. Aiden threw a stick at her.
They started to head back but they got lost. They searched for a way home for hours but couldnt find it. The sky was setting into darkness. The clouds were getting thicker. It started to rain. As a crack came from the sky. The two kids started getting scared. Alba grabbed aidens hand and tucked her black and white swirling pendant necklace into her pink dress.
The two walked around some more. They found a hanger under a tree to hide from the wheather. The storm started getting more intense. Then lightning struck around them.
Alba looked at aiden with her scared hazel eye's speaking with the tone her eyes showed, you know what happened out here all those years ago. That man went crazy and killed those people. He's still out here they say. Aiden replied back with a high tone of stress, dont say that alb! Thats scary. She replied back i know right!
Then a loud crack of thunder chimed. The two grabbed eachother. They screamed scared as hell. Lightning struck infront of them but it stood there not dissapearing. It showed a white light with a blue edge. It whispered to them, touch me and all this will dissapear! I promise! You wont have to be scared of this place no more.
Alba was curious. She walked forward. Aiden grabbed her hand and pulled her back saying dont!. The lightning whispered again, come have some fun. In my world its always a hoot. There are no rules there. Just fun times to be had.
The two kids walked forward and touched it.

Megan's children were special. They would blow lights out and levitate things. They'd read her mind. They would have a special language with each other. She didnt understand it but when she asked them how they learned it. They'd reply from the shadow's momma.
One day when they were 5. She seen them flare black veins with foggy white and black eyes. It scared her. She brought in a priest to exorcize the demons from them. As she knew all to well about the evil she had seen before. When her boyfriend went crazy.
The priest tried an exorcism but the children laughed at him saying theirs nothing wrong with us. He threw holy water on them. It did nothing other than piss them off. Alba levitated the bottle in the air and dumped it on him. The priest used his fingers and made a cross on his chest. He opened up his bible and quoted a couple verses. Aiden copied him.
Aiden told the priest about his imaginary friend and asked him if he wanted to meet her.
The priest said ok. Aiden took him up to his room. Which was painted a dark blue with a bed on one side that had a dresser and a closet on the other side. There were toys scattered everywhere.
He grabbed the priests hand. Aiden's eyes started getting foggy. The priest's eyes went foggy too. Then he seen the world unseen to the naked eye. ghosts everwhere. The priest screamed and ran out.
On his way out the house. He told megan those children were the devil's spawn. You must get rid of them. Hell on earth. They will be the death of us all. Kill them while you have the chance.
Megan started to cry. Aiden and alba grabbed her hand. Then They told her, mommy we're not bad. She replied i know bugaboos but she was worried that they'd end up like the man who spawned them.

The children came out to a world of black white and grey. They thought it looked cool. The trees were grey, the leaves were black and the ground was dirty grey.. They saw tiny paw prints on the ground. That were yellow. they followed them out of the woods.
When they came back into town. They seen there house but it was grey with a black roof and a grey picket fence. It looked the same otherwise. They saw a black cat infront of it.. Who they knew as lucid there black cat with yellow eyes.
They walked up her and seen her yellow footprint. Alba picked her up. Then she said, this must be where you go when you leave! You lil rascal!
They walked into the house that looked like there's. Aiden screamed mom is the food done? They heard a high screeching voice reply, yes dear come and get some. They ran into the kitchen. They seen this new megan dressed in a light grey dress with a white apron wrapped on her. Her skin was a dark grey and her eyes were black. She was holding a grey tray with a black moldy clump on it. She smiled pleasantly showing her fanged teeth with a black backround behind them. She spoke with a pleasantly evil voice, finally! Youve come home! Ive been waiting for you for years! Now the fun can begin. Alba looked at her puzzled. As She confusely spoke, mom we've only been gone for a lil bit. Megan hunched over pinching alba's cheeks. As she pleasantly said, no child, we've been waiting for you two! For years now! And Now that you've come home. We can show you. what you've been missing out on! im so happy! sit down and eat! then we can talk more about it.
Lucid hissed at megan. As she jumped out of alba's hands and onto Megan's face scratching it. Megan swatted her away with her grey claws. Black blood started to pour down Megan's cheeks with scratch marks now showing in black. She screamed you fucking bitch! How dare you? I outta cook your ass and eat you." Lucid ran to the front door and clawed at it.
Aiden spoke this time screaming out, you're not our momma. Your an imposter. This whole place is. Its like neverland. The real neverland. I can feel it!
Megan replied gracefully, oh child! Now that your here! You're never leaving. Get up to your room or ill make you.
The two ran for the front door and opened it. Lucid ran out but the two weren't so lucky. Evil megan grabbed their hands and drug them kicking and screaming to their rooms.

When the kids were six. They seen a black cat running through the park. That they always played at. Alba jumped off the swing she was on. She called to the cat through its mind telling it come to her. It did. It ran right into her arms like it was meant to be. She would play with it and talk to it through its mind. She asked it its name. It replied back lucid.
She picked it up and brought it to her mom. She begged her to keep it. Megan reluctantly replied ok! Its another mouth to feed. So if you want her. You gotta take care of her." Alba agreed. She took very good care of lucid. She loved her. She carried her around like a baby. Even got her a pink stroller. Alba would try to put her in it. Lucid would scream and scamper away everytime.
Lucid would sleep on the bed with alba. Alba called her the protector. She'd warn alba of trouble and all sorts of nasty buisness.
One time lucid bit a salesmen that stopped by selling a vacuum cleaner. The man swelled up and black puss came out of his mouth and the scratch marks. Lucid told alba he was there to kidnap her. so they should watch out and be more careful for her and aiden were special.
Aiden liked lucid but preferred his own thing. Which was playing with his toy cars and watching cartoons. Aiden and alba got along well but would always argue. Megan would say, you'll be the death of me. Aiden would reply we'd never let anything happen to you.
Lucid would always run away. She was a tom cat but now they knew where her second life was or maybe it was her first! Who knew other than lucid!

Evil megan put aiden in his room but it really wasnt his. As the floor was white, the celing was black and the walls were grey with black mold all over them with a window by the closet. There were no toys but dark grey chains hung from the ceiling. It looked like they were already used as black blood dripped from them.
Alba was put in a closet full of darkness. She lit up her hand with a white swirling black light. She seen shadow people and screamed. They spoke to her saying we wont hurt you child you're one of us.
She shot a light at them. They disappated into thin air. A whisper of black smoke. She beat on the door. Hammering it with her little fists crying and begging to be let out.
Evil megan banged back replying angerly, keep doing it and ill beat your little ass. I might not be your real mother but ill whoop ya like i am. Cause your mine now'
ALba replied back just let me out. I wanna go home. Im scared. Please! She continued to cry. Megan yelled back, keep it up missy and im coming in there! You don't want that.
Megan went to Aidens room. She cracked the door and peeked her head in gleaming a smile. Then she spoke sweetly, have you calmed down Bud!" Aiden replied, im always calm! You're the crazy one.
Megan walked in. She went to the side of the room by the window with her arms folded on her chest. She told aiden smuggly, we'll be having a visitor soon. He really wants to see you.
Aiden replied back," oh ya! whose that? Evil megan answered back happier than ever, your grandfather! Aiden showed a look of suprise on his face. As He spoke confused, he's dead! Mom said so. She doesn't lie.
Evil megan grinned ear to ear with those nasty teeth. She spoke with grit, she's a liar Bud! your version might be dead but my father is still alive and kicking. Aiden replied, if hes like you i dont wanna meet him.
Then Aiden flared his black veins with his foggy white and black eyes. He used his mind and flung her out the window.
He ran out the room screaming for alba. She answered im in here help me. Aiden busted the door open with his mind. He grabbed her hand and they ran out of the house.
They were gonna go back to the woods but they seen a pack of black foggy beasts with grey eyes. They ran away in the other direction. They seen megan laying on the ground. Her legs were twisted in an unnatural position and she had blood dripping from her head.

Aiden and alba ran as fast as their little legs could carry them. They saw a park and hid in a black slide. It was one of those that went all the way around in a circle. After a moment. They seen tons of things that looked like 3d shadows storming by.
They waited for a couple minutes. Then they slid out the bottom of the slide. They looked around and seen a black and grey merry go round that was alternating its colors all the way around it. The swings were all black and moldy. There was a half circular metal cage. With grey spikes all over the inside of it and on the cage.
Aiden and alba jumped on the merry go round and played on it. They lost trac of time. After awhile they looked around to see shadow people and children with grey or white skin all around them. They had black veins and eyes.
They screamed at aiden and alba saying, those that dwell in our world will find that life is reluctant to live. You shall see it's presence. Believe in its cure. For you are the curse.
They started to walk forward surrounding the twins completely on the merry go round. Aiden whispered to alba,what are they talking about?" Alba yelled, leave us alone.
They both shot lights from there hands that exploded on the shadow people and children. They flew back. Then Aiden and alba took off. They ran two blocks down. where they seen a person that looked of the living world. He was wearing a priests uniform standing infront of a white church. He yelled at them over here. It's safe.

Megan back in the living world called the cops. after she had went back outside to check on the children and found they werent in the front yard playing. She ran into the woods as she knew thats where they loved to go. She ran all over looking in every direction screaming their names. She heard nothing and felt uneasy. Then it started to rain.
Megan histerically called her brother moose. A short stocky man with copper hair. whose real name was Daniel. He came right over. He helped look for awhile in the woods.
While megan went to the police station to talk to detective markus cane. He asked her all the regular questions. What had happened. When was the last time you seen them and do they do this alot but he knew the answers to this. As it wasnt the first time he looked for the twins. as they loved the woods and caused weird problems all over town and he was called to their home multiple times.
They couldnt control their emotions since they were young. They had popped tires and melted them to the ground. Townsfolk called the cops saying the kids were making them see hallucinations and gave them headaches. Ms. Finn called on them saying aiden killed my dog by making it go crazy. He was staring at it. Then it ran in the middle of the road. Other people had similar experiences as her. When Aiden was 7. He was at the daycare being bullied by a boy 3 years older than him. They found the boy in the corner screaming that they were coming to get him. The daycare lady asked him who. All he said was aiden did it. He was sending the evil pale creatures to eat me."
The police got called to megans house as the neighbors thought she was beating the kids but alba was making the neighbors go crazy in their minds. They were really hearing the damned screaming. It was coming from Megan's house As she couldn't control what she was doing.
Another time they thought aiden was killing animals in the backyard but he wasnt. he just couldnt control the power inside him. deers dogs and other wildlife found there way to him. They went crazy commiting suicide. Bashing there own heads in. as they felt their mind's going astray. It started as a tingling headache that vibrated into madness. A loud shrieking calling them home .
Those were only some of the things going on. As new things kept happening. It made megan feel like she was going crazy. She thought her children were demons or something unnatural. She didnt know what to do. She'd go to the bathroom crying pleading to god to help her but no one ever answered her. She eventually gave in but the kids always told her. They didnt mean to do it. They didnt know what they were doing. They told her they'd try not to. Its just when they get angery or anything. It just happened. That they loved her and she knew that. As they always wanted her attention. They clung to her like she was the only person alive. She was everything to them. The light in their eyes. The soul to there beating hearts. For she would do anything for them and they for her.
