A group of friends were walking back home from school. They passed by a gated forest, there was a rusted up sign saying "DO NOT ENTER". A boy in the group laughed. He had brown curly hair, about 5'2, milky cream skin color, gray color eyes; he wore a green sweater, blue jeans, and black and white Jordans. He said, "That's such a stupid legend."

A girl with neck-length brownish black hair, tan skin, bluish grey eyes, about 4'9, she wore a white blouse, white shorts, and white sandals. She asked, "What's a legend, Mike?"

"You don't know about the Slender Man?" Mike asked. The girl looked at the other girl beside her, they both shrugged. He explained, "They say if you go in the forest, you'll be stalked by a murderous man. But, not any normal man, he has no mouth, eyes, or ears. His face is pale white, he has long arms, long bony fingers, and he wears a business suit. Does that answer your question, Jenna?"

She raised her eyebrows. "That's it." She laughed, "How's he supposed to stalk you if he has no eyes? He would need to use a Guide Dog, hell he wouldn't even be able to find the dog."

Mike rolled his eyes at Jenna's humor. He looked over at the other girl and asked, "You believe me. Don't you, Bridget?"

Bridget had mid back-length blonde hair, deep blue eyes, snow white skin, she wore a blue tank top, blue skinny jeans, and brown boots. She looked out into the forest. She just shrugged. He groaned at her. Then, an idea came to his mind. He said, "Okay then. I bet that tonight, you have to stay in the forest and see if the legend's true. If it is, you have to pretend to be my girlfriend."

She made a disgusted face. She thought, Oh god! Please let it be false. She asked, "What if it isn't true?"

He didn't really know how to answer that. Instead, Jenna answered, "Mike will be your butler."

"Yeah I will! Wait, what?" He looked at her like she was crazy. Bridget nodded to them. She knew she was right about Slender Man being a myth.

Nightfall

The friends snuck out their house at night to meet at the gate. Mike and Jenna paced around waiting for Bridget. After a few minutes, she came running to them. He asked/shouted, "Where were you?!"

She apologized, "I'm sorry. I live in a hotel not a house. So, I also had to sneak past the doorman. Let's just get this over with."

Jenna gave her a flashlight and a camera. She explained, "It's really dark in there you'll need the flashlight. But, conserve it. As for the camera, you're going to need proof."

She nodded and started climbing the fence. She gave one last look at her friends and then went into the forest. Jenna laughed, "Why would he wear a business suit? What does he kill people in a fancy?"

Mike laughed along with that time. All the sudden, three hands started reaching out towards them, one grabbed Mike's throat, but Jenna found a thick stick and hit it. The other two hands tried grabbing them. They screamed and ran away. A homeless man shouted, "Oy! Shut up!"`

Forest

Bridget was already shaking. She tried to convince herself that there was no one there. She turned on the camera and said, "I'm pretty sure it's been at least a minute, and I don't see anything. I have no idea why I'm so scared though. I mean, he can't see me, right."

She turned her flashlight a little bit towards left and saw something. Her heart started beating fast; she couldn't get breaths in between. She went into a different direction and started running. Repeatedly she said, "It's not real. It's not real."

After running aimlessly, she finally slowed to catch her breath. Usually at this point a person would look behind them, but she was too terrified. She exclaimed, "I'm going to kill you, Mike!"

She started walking again. Each step she took, she got more and more paranoid. There would be noises that probably weren't even there. "I'm crazier than Daniel in the game Amnesia, which wasn't a really scary game."

She found a safe house and ran inside. It actually wasn't a house at all, it was a bathroom. She took a deep breath and stared into a mirror. She only looked down for one second and looked back up. Up on the mirror was a note. She grabbed it and read aloud, "He's watching. No eyes." It had a picture of Slender with arrows pointing at where the eyes should be. She rolled her eyes, it was really stupid. She looked back down at the sink. She turned around to leave and then her eyes went wide. Bridget couldn't believe it. The Slender Man's real and he was only a few feet away. She didn't know what to do or say. She giggled, "Uh…hi. I'm pretty sure you're a reasonable and peaceful man, right?"

He started walking towards her, slowly. She got down to the ground, trying to get as far away as possible. He got up to her and looked down. She was amazed at his height. He had to be about 8-9" tall. She stammered, "A-Are you…you gonna k-k-kill me?"

She knew she wasn't gonna get an answer. He really didn't have a mouth. He held out his hand. She looked at it skeptically; she grabbed it and hoisted herself up. After she lifted herself up, she pushed him aside and ran. Instantly, she got grabbed by something. She looked back and noticed the guy didn't even turn around. He had tentacles on his back. She screamed, "Ooooh my god! This can't be happening."

He grabbed her and spun her around, so her back was up against his stomach. He placed his hand over her mouth. After a few minutes, she saw darkness.

Somewhere

She found herself in a room. It was dark so she really couldn't tell where she was. There was a noise that came from in front of her. She tried to get up but, she was tied down. She heard a switch flip and then fainted lights came on. She gasped at what she saw. There were corpses lying in the room and blood was splattered all across the walls. There was no doubt that she was gonna get killed. Slender went over towards a surgeons table and picked up an axe. He went over towards her slowly. She tried to scream but all that came out were squeaks. Not even mice would be able to hear her. He rose the axe up and waited. She guessed he wanted to hear her last words. She questioned, "Is that your real face or is it a mask?"

He didn't say anything, but he did lower the axe. He touched his face. She didn't know whether to feel sentimental or disgusted. So, she remained emotionless. Why should she feel pity towards her murderer? He looked back at her and rose the axe back up. He swung the axe down and missed her. You couldn't tell but he was surprised. Bridget looked at him confusingly. She squeaked, "If you're gonna kill me, just do it!"

He went back to the surgeons table, and got a butcher knife. She closed her eyes and cringed; she waited for her death. She screamed; the blade slashed across her face. It didn't feel like it went deep in her face though. Bridget opened her eyes and didn't see him anymore. She looked down and saw that she wasn't tied anymore. The only door in there was opened. Cautiously, she got up and looked outside. He wasn't out there. It was daylight, which made her wonder how long she was out. She looked around and saw her camera on the ground. When she reached for it, something snatched it up, and it wasn't hard to mistake a snapping noise. She whispered, "Why didn't he kill me?"
