There is a novel form of this story too.
PROLOGUE
An investigation going on now for a year. A serial killer on the loose. There seems to be no connection or sequence among the victims. Will the investigators be able to crack the case and save the victims? Or are they victims?
'It takes a monster to destroy a monster '
Aaron
Bro, good for you. He was just a pain in your life, trying to dominate and over-smart you.
It was noisy, Daniel was sitting on his chair, moving his legs.
Joseph came from behind and patted his shoulders with force. Daniel glanced at Joseph and glanced away.
Daniel
( Why would he do that? )
Dogs barking, sounds of chain clinks mixed with the wind, footsteps on dry leaves fallen on the ground.
Liam ( inspector )
Go find him, quick!
Running into the forest to find James.
Daniel
Yes Mom, inspectors are here, and they are finding James.
Daniel
Tell dad to take his medicines.
Daniel
Yes Mom, I know, I know you want to, I will manage things here. Try to get your visa as soon as possible.
Daniel
All they ever did was care about themselves, else why would they leave us alone for eight whole years now. Even now they don't have the courtesy to come and attend the funeral.
your author😗
Maybe they genuinely can't?
Daniel
And you, because of you there aren't here 😒
your author😗
Haww, why me?
Daniel
Because you are the author😒😒
your author😗
*cough*
Okay that's it for this chapter guys..
CHAPTER 2
After another two hours of searching.
They found my brother's body. It was in quite bad shape. The fight looked intense.
Daniel
(Inspectors came and offered me water, but my throat was in my mouth.)
Daniel
(I felt like puking and wished that I was living a bad dream and none of these were true.)
Daniel
*Sitting in the police car when I saw someone in the hood standing in the crowd.*
Daniel
(I stood and walked to the crowd to see who that was. By the time I arrived, there were only those policemen and their team collecting evidence.)
Liam ( inspector )
Let's get you back home. We'll send the body for an autopsy.
Liam went over to his men indicating them to cover the body in the cadaver pouch.
Daniel
Can I just have the body as it is?
Liam ( inspector )
Of course, after cleaning and in a good state.
Daniel
Well being twins --
Daniel
My brother wouldn't want anything more happening to his body after all these....
Daniel
It is saddening how all these happened and now more...
Liam ( inspector )
Alright, I'll ask them to hand it over to you after the cleaning is done.
* nodded*
Liam ( inspector )
* nods*
It was a long day. Daniel was sent back home, cooked himself an oatmeal which he tossed away.
He then went upstairs to his room and sat on the bed looking at the wall blankly.
His eyes fell on the table on which a diary was kept. He looked at it. Didn't seem like his. He opened the first page and saw it directed to him.
Daniel
*Looking at the diary*
Daniel
( I will read it later.)
* kept it back on the table*
Daniel
Aaron shut your mouth for your good.
Aaron
Why the sudden love?
Daniel
Just leave, none of your business!
* rolled my eyes at him*
Daniel
(I didn't feel like coming to college for the time being, it was a hassle honestly.)
Daniel
(I started skipping classes.)
They sent James's body in two days and the funeral was held.
The neighbours and some friends had come.
James, talking about him, was a sweet cheerful boy.
your author😗
Well...that's all for now...(ㆁωㆁ)
CHAPTER 3
your author😗
Seems like it's a crazy update right at the beginning.
Daniel
Honestly, I never hated him. It was me who was a pain for him, I don't know why. He was the most precious human to me.
Daniel
It's just that I am much smarter, not to brag about it, but this fact got him jealous of me instead of getting inspired.
Daniel
Parents left us in our care, perhaps in my care.
Daniel
Soon after we shifted here, initially we were more peaceful, but later it got worse after post-puberty.
Daniel
People need to feel superior to survive.
Daniel
It doesn't bother me anyway. We brothers look the same just that he looks more approachable, I am just his gloomy side.
Daniel
I wish I was more like him....
As I mentioned Daniel started to skip classes and now that was turning into a habit.
Daniel
I stayed home and munched, and went out for walks and drives. Turning myself from a loner to a super loner, lol.
Daniel
* scoffed at myself*
FOUR DAYS AFTER THE FUNERAL
Daniel
(I decided to go to James's room.)
James and his friend, Joseph, are- were- best buddies.
They have been good at one thing, painting.
The room was filled with their paintings. Joseph frequently came home, and they usually spent time painting and listening to music.
Daniel
It was never so silent.
Daniel
Aaron is simply a person to stir trouble in the classroom. The day before I got a call.
Daniel
Yeah, what's up?
* confused *
Aaron
Nothing, since no one's talking about it, I was asking did you find the killer?
Daniel
The police are looking into it.
*My heart dropped and I began to feel heavy again*
A neighbour had moved into the next apartment recently. Daniel decided to greet her.
Daniel
* I gazed at the pretty lady standing in front of me. *
