Disclaimer: I don't own Slender.
Second disclaimer: I've never actually played this game aside from what my sister downloaded on her iPod Touch.
Reasons
I patiently wait and resist the urge to reveal myself and to feel his presence. To look would be to ruin everything, to lose the entire purpose of doing anything. Nothing of who he is. Nothing of who /I/ am. Nothing of what he made me become.
I hear his shallow breaths and I know he's coming closer. Closer, closer... he'll be in my world soon.
He coughs and I step out.
His face is like an electric shock, the electric shock it always is when I see him. His expression turns from one of startled fear to genuine terror.
I don't remember what I want from him, only that I need it. If there's pain inside I do not feel it. He turns away as though to run.
No, you can't leave yet, I think. I move closer, reaching out with the shadows. Just one touch, that's all.
He turns back to me and screams. I don't understand it. I don't remember what I wanted. He starts running again, faster now than before. I stay still, bringing the shadows back to me. Later, then. Let him find the rest of the signs.
"No... signal... damn it..." he pants and talks to himself, looking desperately at the screen of his phone.
I follow after him silently.
"Another sign..."
'You can't escape, even if you die' is what it says. The blood it's written in belongs to Gary Whitman, 1994 - 2003. I wrote the message myself. All of these signs are my work. I'm a little disappointed that he doesn't notice the unvarying handwriting or wonder why anyone had these signs and bothered to hang them as they were dying.
He rips violently, uncontrollably, as his face grows increasingly more horrified and I'm buried under need, under want, though I don't know what I want. It was important to me once and now I can't remember. I don't feel anything. Closer, closer, closer, closer, closer, closer, closer, and suddenly I recall everything and this is not right, this is-
And I remember that this is why I always give him the choice to play again.
A/N: Yes, Slenderman is in love with the player. This strays so far from his original concept it's almost embarrassing. I don't know why I wrote this. Still, reviews are always appreciated.
