Enjoy!

Ryder's POV

"You are not my brother, I dont have any brothers" Sheldon says stubbornly.

"We're twins, how else do you explain the fact that we are identical" I shout at him, his stubbornness and arrogance already starting to annoy me.

"very simply actually, lots of people believe in the doppelganger theory, in which everyone in the world has someone who looks exactly like them" Sheldon says, god he is insufferable, I thought I had heard the last of his boring lectures when our mother kicked me out.

She kicked me out just before Sheldon left for college, we were 12 and she caught me worshipping Satan, Sheldon must have blocked me out of his memory, selfish bastard.

"You dont seriously believe that though, do you?" I ask him, even though I know the answer.

"Of course not" Sheldon says, looking outraged that I would suggest such a thing

"I merely suggested another way that could be used to explain why we look identical, for example you could be my clone" Sheldon says, although most of what he says to me is just blah, blah, blah, blah.

"I am not your clone, you imbecile!" I yell angrily, causing him to flinch, making me smirk proudly.

"How dare you call me an imbecile, I have a higher iq than yours multiplied by ten" he says, he really has not changed.

"wow, only ten, and you dont even know my iq, so shut up, or I will mangle that pretty face of yours" I tell him, he knows I'm not messing around because he opens his mouth as if to say something but then he shuts it and tightens his posture.

"ah, that is so much better, peace and quiet, no more talking for you, it is about time you listened to what I have to say, what do you know, you might actually begin to understand why I have brought you here, but let's not get ahead of ourselves" I say, but because I know Sheldon, and I know he can never keep his mouth shut for too long, I have brought something to help him.

I notice his confusion when I pull some masking tape out of my duffle bag, but it all becomes clear to him when I cover his mouth with it.

I pull up a chair and sit down in front of him so that I am eye level with him.

"Just a little something to make sure you dont talk, nothing to worry about, for now anyway" I say in a deeper voice, enjoying the worry and, dare I say it, fear in his franticly moving eyes, most likely looking for a way out.

"no need brother, you're not getting out of here anytime soon" I say my evil laugh echoing in this small, sound proof room, resonating in my ears and causing even more suspense before I start my story.

Leonard's POV (two hours later, Leonard and Sheldon's apartment)

"I dont know guys, I am really worried, he's been out for hours" I say, Sheldon hasn't been back since he left earlier without telling me, which is weird for Sheldon, he always feels a need to announce when he going somewhere and where he is going, in fact he has had a go at me many times when I dont do the same.

"this is Sheldon we're talking about, he probably just took the wrong bus again and ended up staying for dinner at someone's house again" Penny says, although I can sense some concern in her voice despite how hard she tries to hide it and act positive.

I texted Amy earlier, she's just as worried as I am and she's on her way here right now.

After a few minutes of awkward silence and exchanged slightly worried glance, I hear someone know at the door.

It is probably Amy.

I open the door expecting to see Amy, but instead I see Sheldon, he looks a bit paler and his hair isn't as neat as it usually is, in fact it looks longer, and he walks in as if he wasn't missing for almost seven hours.

"Hello Leonard" he says, sitting down in his spot, next to Penny.

"Where were you, you've been gone for six hours" I ask him, fustrated that I got worried for no reason.

"I was at the comic book store, I must have fallen asleep reading a comic" Sheldon says, shrugging.

Before I get a chance to say anything else I hear another knock at the door.

"Hello Leonard" Amy greets when she walks though the door.

Noticing Sheldon she turns and frowns at me.

"I thought you said he was missing" she says to me, confused.

"He was, he literally just walked in" I tell her.

I tell her what Sheldon told us and she looks suspicious, but she doesn't say anything.

We decide to watch doctor who, per Sheldon's demand and as soon as it finishes Sheldon announces that he is going to bed.

Ok, that is it for now.

I hope you liked this chapter and enjoyed reading it.

Dont forget to review.

Bye everyone.
