The sound of the raging goblins gradually faded away to nothing. After assuring myself that they were completely gone, I let out a sigh. Finally, I get peace. Those bastards have been hunting me down all night. I slid down against the wall and laid my back against the cold wall. Those darn goblins chased me down because I was accused of murdering a woman named 'Mary Eugene'. Which I did no such thing, I don't even know a person named that. The name sounded oddly familiar though.. I wiped the sweat from my forehead and stood back up, those goblins must be searching for me again, those stubborn monsters don't give up so easily and not without a fight.

You might ask, ''Why don't you turn yourself in?''. Well heck, I tried. I tried convincing them I didn't do it. But all proof and evidence pointed at me, the finger prints on the knife, my jacket that was laying next to the dead lady, a neighbor supposedly seeing me enter her house. I'm pretty sure I was framed but.. by who exactly? I didn't have time to think anymore as I heard more growling. Goblins again.

I ran as fast as I could would my short legs, avoiding all goblins and jumping from roof to roof like a ninja.  I grew tired and burnt out, I was out of breath and my lungs and legs were burning in pain. I had to stop for a rest, if not I might even die if I keep on running. I saw a very tiny cottage by a very old oak tree. The door was unlocked and it seemed vacant so I took a risk and wandered in.

I took out my lighter that I carried in my back pocket and lit the giant candle in the middle of the tiny cottage. In an instant, the whole room lit up. I remembered to latch the door so the goblins wouldn't be suspicious or come in. I looked around the cottage and my heart just suddenly hurting. I tightened my grip on the lighter and I fell to the ground, other hand on my chest. I was breathing heavily and it wasn't because of all the running round.

Next thing I know, the pain subsides and my head feels as if someone has smacked me with a club. Now I grip my head. ''G-GAHH!!'' I screamed in pain. I bit my lip so hard so I wouldn't be too loud and the goblins would find me. My head, still hurting, I look up seeing all pictures of me and a lady. The lady.. I got a weird feeling she was Mary Eugene. In a picture, she had an arm around me and she had a motherly smile. ''Mom..'' my mouth unconsciously blurted.

What? Why did I say that? My head started pounding and a rush of memories flooded my head. Me and that lady-mom, sitting at a table, us smiling and laughing while eating her blue berry pancakes. The pain was gone and I found myself crying because I was so confused. I really did know this lady.. s-she's my mom. But why couldn't I remember her? Did I really kill her but just forgot? Looking at the pictures, we looked very happy, why would I even.. kill her? What in the world is really going on?

I jumped when the door suddenly got knocked down and in came the goblins, with a ugly smirk on their faces and a sharpened wooden stick in their hands. I was about to get up but they pointed the sticks at me threateningly, ''Try to run and i'll stab you.'' I slumped back down as they forcefully grabbed me by my arms and dragged me away, back to the dungeons.

After a beating, they took me to a big cave and threw me on the ground like I was trash. I sure felt like it. My hands and legs were tied with strong vines and I looked up. The big hideous dragon stared down at me. He was the warden. ''My goblins finally found you? Finally. It took long but you're here now,'' he said in a low raspy voice. I looked away, avoiding his yellow sharp eyes. ''So let's get to the point. Don't forget I still need to execute you,'' he said, giving me a disgusting smile while showing his sharp teeth. ''Why did you do it? Why did you kill her?''

I didn't speak. I wasn't sure what to say. I have no memory of killing her but maybe I did.. At first I didn't even know that woman and now I realize she was my mother. What motive did I have that made me kill her? I don't know. I don't remember. ''Do I need to ask again? Why did you kill her?'' the dragon asked again, this time getting impatient. ''I don't know.'' I whispered, honestly. ''What do you mean 'you don't know'. What so you just killed for joy? For the fun of it?'' he asked, voice getting higher.  ''I said, I DON'T KNOW!! THAT WOMAN WAS MY MOTHER. WHY WOULD I KILL HER? I DONT FREAKING KNOW! DID I EVEN KILL HER? I DONT KNOW TOO, OKAY?!'' I said, finally bursting. My chest heaved up and down and I was breathing heavily from my outburst.

The warden dragon, who seemed seem startled at my sudden shouting, just stood up and narrowed his eyes at me, ''Just kill him.'' And with that, I was pulled into a prison. I sat on the muddy floor and had my  hand on the wooden bars, waiting for my death.

A shadow emerged and I looked up. My mouth parted in shock and my eyes widened. Someone, who looked exactly like me, identical. But this one had a darker hair color and his eyes were red with a evil smirk plastered on his face. ''Y-you.. look exactly like.. me.'' I said, still shocked. ''Ofcourse. I'm your evil twin,'' he said. ''T-twin?'' I asked, not grasping the situation. ''Are you deaf or just plain stupid? Yes twin. Everyone has a identical twin who is the opposite of who they are. While you were a good son, I was a bad son. You, the kind hearted fool who gives free rice to that old bag next to our cottage. And i'm your opposite, brutal, evil, and doesn't care about anyone but myself,'' he said, crossing his arms.

''W-what are you doing here?'' I asked. ''Just saying goodbye and I wanted to clear things up. I. killed. her.'' he leaned in and whispered. He pulled back and laughed evilly. ''..Killed? Mary Eugene? My mother? Your mother?!'' I asked, eyebrows furrowed in anger. ''Exactly. She was so annoying. Telling me to eat dinner when her food was utterly horrible. It took her 4 hours to pick the food in the grass field and even risked her life hunting boars so I could eat meat and the food was disgusting. I threw the food right in her face and stabbed her with a fork. She was bleeding and then I got the knife and cut her. I did it slowly so she could feel the pain.'' he said, with a smile.

I stuck my hands through the wooden bars and grabbed him by his collar. My eyes were flaming and I just felt like killing him right now. ''That'll teach that wicked old lady to feed me nasty food. And you know what's better? You got blamed for this and not me. Have fun rotting in hell.'' he said. I punched him with all my might and he stumbled back. He spat out blood and wiped his mouth. ''That's all you got? Seriously such a good boy. I would have at least attempt to kill. But oh I forgot, your too good for that. Haha. Now I better go. I dont want to be there when your blood splatters everywhere. It might ruin my attire. Bye now~'' he waved and left.

The goblins came back. Hmph, that coward. Leaving when the guards were coming back. They opened the bars and yanked me out. ''Wait. I didn't kill her.'' I finally say. ''Yea yea that's what they all say before they are executed. ''Oh it was an accident~'' or ''I didn't mean to, I just stabbed her 13 times on accident.'' Tch, yea right. Now let's go.'' he dragged me.

''BUT IT SERIOUSLY WASN'T ME!! I have a evil twin, he did it! PLEASE BELIEVE ME! I know it sounds ridiculous but it's true!'' I tried convincing them. ''Maybe now I know why you killed your own mother. You're. mentally. ill.'' he spat.

He didn't let me say anymore as he positioned my head on the floor. He took out a long sword. Well.. here goes. I'm dying.. for something I didn't do. I wonder how many people out there in the world get wrongly accused. Just like I am right now. At least.. I get to be with my mother. A tear cascaded down my face and I closed my eyes shut. I hear a swift sound and knowing that was the sword, coming down onto my neck. Cutting my head off. And I lay dead. Pale. Bloody.
