Run and Never Look Back
(I do not own the Slender Man)
Joey woke up in his room in a cold sweat. He had just had a rather disturbing nightmare. In it, he was being followed by some… thing. It didn't have a face. It followed him through the expansive forest and whenever he looked back, his vision would begin to blur and static like a TV would screech in his ears. After running for a while, he came upon a crumpled up sheet of notebook paper on the ground. He was in too much of a hurry to open it and read it, but to curious to just leave it there. He did a quick once-over of the area, and deeming it safe he moved on. When he opened up the paper to read it, static screamed in his ears, and h had awoken.
"What a dream!" He mused aloud.
"It seemed so real, and that forest seemed familiar." Joey lived in an elegant but simple two-story house, left at home for the weekend by himself.
"Who was that man, and why did he keep chasing me?" He wondered, again aloud. He stood up, yawning, and something fell from his hoodie pocket. He looked down at it, and a shiver went up his spine. It was the same piece of paper from his dream, he was sure of it. Feeling he was safe enough to read it, he opened it and did so. It read:
"Run and never look back"
He dropped the paper in surprise. It was advising him against what he had done in his dream. But how was that even possible? Whenever Joey got stressed about something, he would look out the window, or go outside, and let the serenity of nature calm him. He opened his curtains, and peered out into the forest, feeling more relaxed already. But when he looked again, what he saw nearly made him jump from his skin. It was the man from his dream, partially cloaked by shadows and foliage, but he was there, clear as day. He heard a faint noise in his ears, like a distant TV had just gone to static and he could barely hear it. Joey blinked, and the man disappeared, and the noise faded to nothing. Unnerved, he chose to call his friend Rick over. He was a supernatural buff, maybe he will know what's going on.
