Wetness set into my shoes as I stepped in a camouflage puddle of mud trying to keep up with lazari and sally
" Girls! Don't run off to far! "
" Oh! Let them be! There'll be fine! They're tough "
I wanted to trust clockwork...but she sees things differently then me, the girls are indeed strong but they're still kids at the end of day
" Come out sally! " lazari yelled as she searched for her brown haired friend
I could hear Sally's giggle from about 10 trees away yet I kept it to myself so they could have fun
As I walked with cw I noticed the fog in the air had gotten thicker almost like it was hard to walk through
* Lulu might be around here since she does cause thick fog when she kills *
" Hey lulu! I know your here! "
" Hey y/n...I don't think- "
" AHHHHHHHHHH "
I ran farther in the fog with clockwork as we tried to find the girls
" LAZARI! SALLY! " Clockwork yelled
" What a feast I'll have tonight for sure yes indeed! "
" Let her go! Put sally down! You monster! "
I stopped beside lazari watching as sally hung upside-down by the rake
" Rake! Slender already told you not to come into his territory! "
" Look around clockwork~ Your in my territory "
* Shit! He's right, we crossed into his place without even checking *
" Look rake why dont you just let sally go and we can leave? "
I could see his expression as he was thinking about it. My breath staggering with the thoughts in my head of him harming sally
I let out a deep sigh as sally was let go and she ran into my arms
We started walking away yet I could still feel his eyes on us like a dog begging for food
" Y/n! Move! "
My face hitting the ground first asking my nose bleed as the rake was ontop of me holding me down
" Just because I let the child go...DOESNT MEAN SOMEBODY WONT PAY THE PRICE! "
I grabbed the knife from the side of my thigh which was only there just in case something like this happened
A shriek of pain left the rake when my blade swiftly dug into his thin skin, I quickly moved from under him and went back to clockwork and the kids
" You get them out of here! I got this! "
" Are you dumb- " swinging his sharp nails cw dodged the attacks the children running off back towards the manor
" Go! If I have to tell you again I swear you'll never hear the end of it! "
She took of following after the kids while I steadily watched the rakes movements
Charging to me swinging with such speed and furious energy it was difficult to dodge said attacks
My shoulder throbbed with pain as a deep cut was embedded into my skin
* If I keep this up I might just tire him out but I'm also losing stamina, his speed is unhumane its like it never stops *
" I have to say y/n...they taught you well "
He charged at me again only this time his speed allow him to now be behind me instead of infront
" BUT NOT WELL ENOUGH! "
I could've swore my life had flashed before my eyes yet the pain never came
" Y/n are you ok? " I opened my eyes to find splendor pinning the rake to a tree using his tendrils
" My brother would be very upset to find that you attacked what belongs to him "
" HAHAHA! You think I'm scares of slenderman? He's a monster with no bite yet he talks alot of bark! Why do you think he's never beaten me? "
" That's aloy of talk from someone who is pinned against a tree, y/n head back to the house I can handle this "
I followed splendors instructions as I raced back to the manor
Apon entering I saw ej and lulu talking
" Y/n! We heard what happened with the rake clockwork told us "
" Yeah, I managed not to die somehow...where's slender? "
" Hes fixing up clockwork right now "
* In my office now *
" Hhm? "
" What is it? " lulu asked me as I turned my attention back to her
" Nothing I'm going to head to my room " I made my way to the exact opposite of where I said I was going
Opening the door I saw slender grabbing a first aid kit
" Sally and lazari told me about what happened while you guys were in the woods "
I huffed as he took off my shirt to treat my injuries
" It wasn't that bad, besides I could've handled it just fine without splendors help "
I hissed at the alcohol touching my open wound
" Even if you actually could've taken on the rake it's still not something a human should do y/n "
He lifted up my chin to face him, I felt my face turn red even though we were dating and he'd done it multiple times
" I don't want you nor the girls getting hurt, you mean alot to me "
I gave him a quick kiss before turning around to reach my back
" I know I mean alot to you slender but I don't think I'd still be alive in this house if I didn't know how to fight "
" True " finishing up the bandaging I hopped off the table making sure not to tighten my body too much
" The real question is if I had enough stamina to make it through the fight but we'll never know will we? "
" Yeah I guess your right " he says reaching to put the med-kit back
I was going to leave the room to go check how the others are if it weren't for a familiar sensation around my waist
" I didnt say you could leave did I? "
* Well I guess I'm not getting out of this *
" I'm sorry, I didn't realize I wasn't given certain orders to departure from this room "
" Then you should be punished for disobedience~ "
A tender kiss was placed on my neck before trailing up towards my jawline
" Y'know if you missed me you could've just said something "
" Where's the fun in that kitten? "
* knock knock knock *
(Muffled) " Hey slender! We got a problem! "
We both looked at eachother before rushing out the room to see what was going on
" What is the problem jeff? " he asked pacing right behide him
" We have a certain visitor "
Opening the door I came across a face I hadn't yet seen before
A girl with brown hair, red glasses and a mask almost like ej's wearing a striped jacket paired with blue shorts
" What are you doing here stripes? " slender asked in a low voice
" Let's cut the bullshit slender, zalgo heard about your little human pet and he's not too happy about it "
" What- "
" Listen slender, every creepypasta has heard about it and you can thank puppeteer for that. He spreads the word fast around the other pastas "
I stood behide slender and Jeff as the rest of the members came to the door
" Stripes "
" Clockwork~ How are you? "
" Kiss my ass! You know damn well how I feel you damn demon! "
" Aww your still upset~ I wish I could stay and chat but I can't. Short story zalgo wants you to get rid of your pet slender or else he'll deal with it personally "
We all watched as stripes ran off into the distance
" What do we do slender? " BEN asked
" What do you mean what do we do? Zalgo is going to tear us ass first! " Jeff replied now sounding stressed
" Slender " I called, everyone's attention now turned on me " What going to happen now? "
" I don't know y/n, but I know he's not going to do anything to you. Not as long as I'm here "
( Thanks for all the support guys! It's been awhile cuz I just moved and I'm about to eat but thank you so much and I hope you enjoyed! )
