Killer or Lover? (Jeff the Killer fanfiction)

Chapter 23: the News

Jeff's POV:

I sprinted as fast as I could through the forest taking the quickest route home. As I neared the house, I straight away know something was wrong, it was 4 in the morning and the lights in the meeting hall on the top floor were never on at this time of night.

I leapt out the tree and hit the wooden porch with a light thud, voices were yelling at each other upstairs and shadowy figures could be seen waving their arms and shout to each other clearly in a panic through the window.

I opened the door slowly, trying not to make a lot of sound when a loud clunk echoed through the large mansion silencing the commotion upstairs as the door closed.

I waited for a moment when I saw a figure walk fearful down the stairs, a small gleaming dagger gripped tightly in his hands, it was BEN.

"Ben, put that away before you hurt yourself" I joked, he breathed a sigh of relief and so did everyone upstairs as the noise continued.

"Oh, it's you, sorry but we had an intruder and we weren't sure who it was at the door" he said slipping the small blade back into his belt.

"An intruder, who?!" I exclaimed,

"Well we might know seeing as they came through your window, there are only a few culprits it could be and we think..."

"Jane!" I butted in, he nodded,

"And there's...um something else to" he looked timidly at the ground, kicking his boots into the clean red carpet.

"BEN! That's enough! Jeff get to my room, we need to talk" a loud voice rang through are heads and are marks started to burn slightly.

Ben teleported away leaving me to climb the stairs twice till I reach 'his' room, I gave it a soft knock.

"Come in" he said, I opened the door and looked at the ground,

"Look at me smile child" he said softly as if trying to comfort me, I looked up straight into his blank and featureless face.

Slendy was sat at his desk, his head in his hands, wearing blue and white stripped PJ's, third tentacles extended from his back all making a steaming mug a hot chocolate. They reached over and grabbed me round the waist, placed me on a soft arm chair facing him and passing me the hot chocolate. We remained in the silence for what seemed like an hour when I finally said,

"Ha this reminds me of when I was younger, back when you first found me, you know?" I chuckled, he looked up,

"Hm ye, all those nightmares" he chuckled back,

"Jeff I need to tell you something, it's about Myai and Jane" my eyes widened,

"She's been taken by what we could only guess as Jane and I can't sense Jane anywhere"

"Well what do you mean 'can't sense Jane'? She has the mark doesn't s..."

"Not anymore" I gave him a puzzled look, he let out a sigh,

"We have reason to believe she went to the under realm and pledged her elegance to Zalgo" I felt angry build inside me,

"And that means"

"Yes, Myai is on her way to the under realm"

"Well we have to go after her!"

"No this is what she wants, What Zalgo wants, he will stop at nothing till all the high class demons of are world are under his control and you're at the top of his list, you know that right and I won't let it happen, do you understand me" I looked at the coco in my hand, watching the foam dance in the mug, I tried to think he didn't care but I know he did, that's what makes him different to Zalgo, he cares even if he doesn't show it half the time,

"So what are we going to do?" I asked feeling me anger slip away with ever sip of coco, in fact I felt a bit light headed.

"I don't know but we will get her back one way or another" he said with a little encouragement in his voice, I smiled as everything went fuzzy, Slendy leapt forwards and caught me.

"What...did you put in this coco" I asked sounding very drowsy,

"Do you remember the Coco I used to give you? The one for a dreamless sleep" I nodded as everything began to go black,

"It's alright child, go to sleep" and I was out.
