"Undoubtedly there has to be a way to get inside," Trender said. "Have you spoken to any of your allies?"

Slenderman shook his head. "I went to search for them last night. The only immortals remaining are everyone here in the mansion besides Zalgo. They were all killed by him before the battle."

The Slender brothers remained silent as they glanced at each other.

Offender grunted. "So that's what the bastard was doing after he woke up. No wonder why it took him months to make an appearance. He had it all planned out!"

"Then there must be a way." Splendor nodded. "If he killed them then that meant they most likely knew things that could have benefited us."

"If only we could teleport to the underworld." Trender sighed.

"We've tried it before." Slenderman reminded him. "It didn't work, it just exhausted our power."

"Giving him more power. He must be able to read minds if he knew about Dark Link." Splendor muttered.

Slenderman stared at the black box in front of him, remembering how close Y/N was to killing Zalgo during the battle. He couldn't help but wonder if she used the special dagger, could she have killed him on the spot?

For the next two days, Slenderman looked in the attic for any books he might have stored. Unfortunately, he found nothing and was losing hope until a special elf boy announced something he didn't expect.

Ben sat on his rolling chair as he played Minecraft. He was about to kill a creeper when his computer kept glitching.

"What the fuck!" He muttered as he sat up. A hand came out of the screen, alarming him in the process. "What the fuck is-" He stopped as soon as he saw Dark's ashy face.

"I don't have a lot of time to explain, Ben." He grunted as he fell to the floor. "Y/N can only hold him off for a while."

"What's wrong with her?"

Dark Link stood up, looking down at him. "Listen closely because I'm not going to repeat myself. You guys are all in danger, and so is Y/N. You guys need to save her and prevent the spell from happening. Slenderman can easily teleport to the under realm until tomorrow. He couldn't in the past because it was locked but I swear he now can!" He studied Ben to make sure he was listening. "Go to the underworld right now before it's too late."

Ben wasted no time as he ran outside the hallway. Dark smiled as traveled back through the screen. He realized this was their first encounter that didn't end up with a fight. Y/N would be saved in a matter of minutes. 

"Slender!!!" Ben yelled at the top of his lungs as he ran downstairs. He was lucky enough that he didn't fall.  Slenderman teleported near the stairway with his brothers behind him. "Turns out you can teleport to the underworld! Y/N needs us, we have to go now!"

Jeff, Liu, L.J, and Sally got out of the living room to listen to Ben's announcement.

"I've never-"

"Sounds like Y/N is in danger! We have to at least try!" Splendor reasoned.

"Isn't it a coincidence Elf boy here saw Y/N and Zalgo getting Dark Link and now expects us to believe Dark Link is telling us the truth when he's working with Zalgo?"

"What the fuck are you trying to suggest Joker wanna be?"

"This can be a trap, you midget. What kind of danger is she in, anyway?"

"Dark Link mentioned something about a spell Mr. Smiley."

"Enough!" Slenderman yelled as he processed what Ben had just said about a spell. He feared Zalgo was going to turn her against them. He looked up at the staircase where his proxies, Painter, Puppeteer, and E.J were witnessing the scene. "Grab your weapons, we have to at least try."
