I woke up in a room something strapped down on my arm some flowers on the stand next to me and my guitar leaning on it. What the hell happened I was driving then next thing I knew I was flipped upside down and bleeding I think someone else was screaming or was that me. I tried to sit up but began to feel really light headed. I plopped back down on my pillow. My head began to pound before I could hear someone talking to me who the hell was this person, where was this person. "You fucking idiot look what you did to me!" The voice was faint and yet I could hear it loud and clear. I looked to the bed opposite mine and could see a mutilated body. I was about to freak out when a nurse came in who was surprised to see me awake. "Oh hey you shouldn't be moving around too much." She rushed over to me and made sure to have me lay back down. I got a better look at her when she got close my vision began to focus a little when she came inside probably because I was jumpy. She was no more than fifteen short dark hair glass and instead of a normal uniform was wearing a dark hooded sweater with short shorts. "Who are you gah what the heck happened?" She looked me over before speaking. "You were found inside an upside down truck along with another guy who didn't make it there was an accident and someone between the two of you crashed the cameras near it are being taken in for view." She knew so much for looking so young. "Well I better get going one thing before I go is that your guitar?" I looked over to it still had all my travel stickers on it and not even a scratch on the case surprisingly I guess that guy was not lying when he said you could take a hammer and still not break it. "Yes it is mine would like me to play you a song when I get out of here?" She looked at me and with almost a smile saying yes but before I could sit up she began to laugh a little weird but huh I guess I have heard a lot of things to consider all things from my travels. "Just hand me my guitar and pick from one of the songs from the folder inside." She walked over and opened it up. "Oh this one looks cool Welcome to my life you play stuff from simple plan." I grabbed the guitar and took the pick I place in between the strings on the first fret. I started to tap it out before playing I got through half of the song before I got a throbbing head ach and could hear the voice again what the hell is up. "You, you're the one that did this to me and yet I'm still here well I can still make your life a living hell while here can't I." I tried to shake my head trying to get whatever was bothering me out. "Oh hell no you're not getting me out of here I will make sure you are given hell before I leave." I could feel my body get fairly numb before I couldn't control what I was doing. "I never asked your name I'm sorry." "Oh my name is Madi." "Nice to meet you Madi my name is Marko." Marko who the hell, that's not my name it's Ryan. "You may have my body for now but it is still my body not yours." "Oh nice to meet you Marko… maybe I should go you seem a bit tried maybe I'll see you around bye." She got up and placed his guitar back in the case before walking out of the room. "So Bryan is it look I'm sorry on whatever happened I don't remember anything and you are probably remembering what you want to instead of the truth because are feeling bitter and." "SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU KILLED ME!" I could feel a jolt with in his head. "Back off, why don't you cross over already before you make things bad for yourself or worse!?" He was taking control back calming his dominance against mine. "Marko I swear I will make it hard for you to keep hell off your back." He started too forcible shut me up next chance I get I will make it hard for him to live.

We would go back in forth until he learned that in order for him to make my life hell he would have to let me get some gigs first with some bands just to fill in a rhythm part of the song. "Look if you want to make my life hell you should at least help me out when I need it when you take control I can see inside your head you're a good fighter so maybe we can get into some MMA or something?" He started to think up a growling sound so I would hear loud and clear. "Alright I get it but I still want you to help because as of late I heard there has been some killing happening around here and we don't have enough money to travel anytime soon since my bank account ran a little dry with the hospital bill." "Fine but you better not stop me from killing something I can't leave something to live unless you want it coming back to bite you in the ass." "There will be an extent where I will let you kill and not alright." "Fine it's your funeral any way I already had mine." I did go to his burial just to show some respect to him even if he is inside my head. "Alright your turn to choose where we eat today so go ahead and eat something." He grabbed some fruit from a nearby stand and headed over to the cashier. "Will that be all for you today sir?" He looked over to the cooler they had. "Uh I would also like that Gatorade lemon flavored please." The cashier walked over and placed it on the counter. "That will be five dollars." He handed the cashier a five before getting the fruit and Gatorade and walked off. "So where to after this oh person I wish I can drive to hell." "We are heading to foothill Blvd and stay there for the night." He choked a little on his drink. "You're kidding right that's where the murders are happening." "Yes and that is why it is so cheap over there right now anyone wanting to take a risk is going to get a cheaper price they have to keep the individual hotels afloat don't they?" He finished up and I began to play a tune while having my new case placed behind my back and squished between my backpack. "Why did you get rid of the old case any way?" "It would get really annoying to carry the thing around and this one is more light weight so there." The tune was from a game I heard about one of the songs was a theme song I heard and it was enchanting to me so I looked it up and learned how to play it. Now I play it whenever I feel a little down or if the atmosphere is just right for it to be played. "Why are you playing that, the sun is barley going down." "It will be dark in five minutes or so, that's way." I always had a rebuttal to his complaining. When we got there the clerk was surprised to see that someone was there to rent a room other than some guy who was a sickly white tone of skin. "Alright here is your room key it is sixty bucks a night." "Thank you very much." I walked off toward my room and started to set my stuff down. "You are even more of an idiot then I thought for staying inside the room with a murder right next door." I stood there for a little processing what he just said. "How can you tell?" "I maybe in your body but I'm still a ghost…man this guy is darker then me but not by much." He said with a psychotic tone. "Whatever let's just get out of here before he decide to end you before I can." "No way, the clerk up front might be this guy's target." "Man, why are you such a goody two shoes huh?" I took out my guitar and grabbed the neck, thinking of using it like a bat. "If you are going to fight him then let me deal with it alright." I let him take control and just as we busted down the door the window was open.

I rushed over to view out the window but saw no signs of someone running. "I don't feel him anymore it is fading and yet you are on edge man you're a wimp." I ran back to the room and grabbed all the stuff. "Looks like we won't be staying here for long also if you see that pale guy again we recommend you run like hell." The clerk stared at me before I realized I said we. "Well, bye I'll visit your grave if you're killed." Leaving off on that note, I ran off with a flabbergasted clerk shitting bricks most likely. "Did you really have to say that?" "No but I rather give myself something to run away preferable the guys in white." We ran to the side where the window was open and began to run in the direction it was pointing. Rushing through all the thick brush was difficult but if I didn't make it to save someone he would never let me hear the end of it. When I got through I could see a window open. "How are we supposed to get up there?" He made me look and I could see the wall was a bit uneven some of the bricks were enough to climb up. I dropped the pack and placed the guitar on my back. "You are so going to let me get whatever I want once we are done here." I got to the sill before I could hear an eerie voice say go to sleep followed by a slight whimper. "Come on get in there before he kills the person." I grabbed the neck of the guitar and jumped over using all the force I could pulling the guitar off my back I smashed the guy in the face. There was a loud cracking sound not from him but from the guitar. Shit what did I get us into? I could see something gleaming it was a knife and some blood on the tip of it. I could feel his anger starting to boil. "I'll just let you take him on."

Relinquishing control I nearly snapped the guys neck if it wasn't for him cutting my sides up. When the guy fought me off he jumped toward the window we could see his pale as the moon white skin and sweater with a hood but his eye color was a coal black and his mouth had dried blood on the side forming a sadistic smile that slightly hidden by his hair long and black as night. "I'll make you go to sleep later." Before jumping out the window and disappearing. "Damn it; come on body move, MOVE!" I could hear Ryan's thoughts; am not going to let you kill yourself that is my job. "Stop he is gone and right now you can do nothing…though that vibe he gave off hmph I might have some fun yet." I could hear some shifting before deciding to turn around. "MOM DAD, HELP ME NOW!" The lights were still off so we couldn't tell what the hell she had. *Tick Tick* I began to stiffen up badly, that sound was all too familiar whenever I wound up in the wrong part of a town. "Hey listen now I wasn't the guy who just tried to kill you he ran off before I could do anything else." I could hear more footsteps before the door slammed open and the lights were flipped on. The dad had some kind of gun as well and the mother was holding a knife. But the girl when she caught sight of me lowered her shotgun. "You're…that one guy from the hospital." I was holding on to my sides when I figured out who it was as well. "Hey nice to see you again *Gah* uh in a little pain wasn't feeling it before, adrenaline must of kept me from feeling it." "Dad call Nine one one." I tried to reach out for a hand but then someone else came and started to smack me. "STOP, STOP!" I could feel all the life in my body leaving me. "Oh hell no you are not going to die, by this guys hands only by mine." I could feel something start to course through my entire body. "ENOUGH!"My words came out in a slight growl. I caught the person by the wrist before they could smack me again and I started to bend there arm in the opposite direction. "Is this how you treat someone when they saved your daughter?" I stopped before I would cause anymore pain I reached for the top part of my guitar and it started to rebuild itself a regular wood based steel string Yamaha guitar. "Hmm glad to see I don't have to get a replacement for it this one is my favorite." I could hear the same sound of a shotgun. "Now why would you want to do something like that?" I could sense there figure on the trigger I did a quick jerk with my arm and placed the guitar behind me before the gun went off. The bullets were flattened as if they just hit something just too hard to penetrate through. "No hard feelings then, good I'll be on my way." I turned around and began to walk out and try to find the front door. "Wait, don't go Marco!" I jerked when she called my name oh Madi I don't want to hurt you any more then I had already done your father. "Madi stay somewhere safe alright I'm going to look for that guy also here you might need this more then I will." I ran out and grabbed my pack. Rummaging around the mess I found my first aid kit. "Now then this is going to sting and I'm not going to lie it will hurt like a bitch." I got some hydrogen peroxide out placing a clean cloth on the top of it I started to pour a little out I closed it with the cap and turned to face her. "This will keep infections from happening." I got close and saw that he cut her near the collar bone. "That son of a bitch will pay for hurting you I swear it." I placed the cloth on the cut and she winced in pain. "I know it hurts but please bear with it, if there was any blood on that knife before or if he doesn't clean it a whole lot, more pain would come." I cleaned it out as fast and best as I could before putting a huge dressing and pressure bandage on it. "Get your parent and go to the hospital I will keep watch as make sure nothing else was to come and harm you or your parents… I guess." I left the kit behind I could always get a new one anyways. "Just promise me one thing and that is, don't get into anything bad." I ran off without saying another word I have to find the guy and make him pay for hurting my friend. I began to run around and have Bryan tell me every so often if he could sense him. "Wait I'm picking something up a murderous intent but on one thing and this is less darkening no it's more light but brooding." I rushed until he said we were right on top of whatever he was sensing. "Where are YOU I have bone to pick with pale boy?!" I grabbed my guitar from my back and started to swing at the trees making them fall down with each hit I did to a tree. Something finally came down from one of the trees. "Don't go to sleep you'll never wake up." I swung my guitar but it was stopped. When I caught a look of whom it was I put my hands on top of my guitar and held it up while supporting myself on it. "Sorry I thought you were someone else." She looked at me black as night eyes and equally black as night dress with same colored heels. "You look like him but the things you are wearing are opposite to what he wears." I knocked my guitar with my foot on the side of it making it flip upside down while letting it spin in my palm before grabbing the front of the neck and placing it on my back only being hung by my shoulder with the strap I bought. "Sorry I attacked you but right now I just want to kill the guy that almost killed my friend, names Marko." I placed my hand out but she did not shake hands with me. "My name is Jane." She began to walk past me I saw what she had in her hand when she made it into a clearing. "Go back to your friend he does not leave his victims alive if they encounter him." I rushed past her without even giving a second glance rushing toward the hospital I made it to the front door when he just killed the first nurse. "YOU FUCK!" I got my guitar and smashed his skull into the wall. But just as I was about to smash on it even more a tentacle grabbed my wrist and flung me back. I did a small flip in the air and could see a man with no face tall and slender wearing a gray suit with a black tie. "I WON'T LET YOU STOP ME!" Three more tentacles came out from his back. I got my guitar and placed it front of me. He started to wrap them around it. With a small grin and somehow an expression of concern on his face I took my lighter out and started to burn my guitar. The flames came off of it and on to him. He let go and started to try and snuff himself out. "TAKE THIS!" I smashed his head in to the wall before rushing over to the counter and asked if there was a girl with a cut on her collar area. The nurse rather shaken up told me the room number. "Thanks and also get out of here before anything else happens." She got up and ran away screaming. I looked at the elevator then the door leading to the stairs. I rushed on through trying to outrun this guy and time. Bursting into the door and shattering it to piece I could see her laying there on the bed and him standing next to her with a knife to her neck. "Make any moves and I will make her sleep."

Oh how I wish he didn't know this girl then I could just take control and kill this guy without a hitch. "I won't let you kill her if you do I will be the one to put you to sleep next!" He began to laugh a little and instead of killing her he rushed us and smashed him into the door knob puncturing our back. With a bigger grin he jerked us to the side and broke it into our back. The pain, his will, everything was going dark were we really dying I never did think it would end like this. "There you are Jeff I found your master in the lobby or an imprint of him that is." With what little strength he had left he used it to look at the girl in black. "Ah if it isn't my old friend Jane how have you been?" "Shut up you monster I will make sure no one will go die." "Shh go to sleep." He dashed at her with his knife but she blocked it with hers. "Don't go to sleep you'll never wake up." There is nothing we can do now just rest and don't die is about the only thing you can do now stupid fuck. "I have to save her get her out of here while these two are distracted." I took control I jerked us up and smashed our back into the wall. "I will kill us both here then before I do anything else!" I made us repeatedly smacked into the wall before my own strength failed me. Blood was pooling around us now with nothing more in each other. "Now we shall all die in here were it all started." I started to laugh to myself this is how it shall end killing this fuck in only a week ha.

Whatever Jeff did to the guy he killed himself and that just leaves the girl and Jeff. He looked at me with his smile trying to freak me out. "Once in a long while have you ever looked at me before you came along and now I'm as ugly as you are!?" He laughed a little. "Why didn't I kill you when I had the chance to do so." We went at each other with our knives slowly cutting through each other's clothes and sometimes skin, blood would fly when ever our knives would be thrown about. We had fought for what felt like mere minuets but in reality it had been five hours the sun started to rise signaling the awakening of other people. He took his gaze off me and rushed out the window back to where ever he hides like the rat he is. "I will make you sleep later!" He called as he fell from the window. I looked around the guy looked like he was still alive I began to walk over to him and realized something dark was emanating from him. "Well if you have that around you then maybe you will be ok as for me I have to go."

That idiot if I wake up and she is dead I will personally end myself and kick his ass as a ghost just to get revenge. I could feel feeling in my body start to return and with that came my strength. Picking myself up, I was tucked in with my clothes on the dresser next to me as well as my guitar. Looking around I was placed in the room with Madi her folks were also in the room all kind of grouped together near her. How are you not dead I could feel your life slip!? Well my dear friend who so worries about my state of health I have no fucking idea after you tried to kill me and stop me from saving her! GAH SCREW YOU! "UP YOUR'S ASS HOLE YOU'RE THE REASON I'M HERE! All the screaming in my head made me developed a strong head ach. "Oh your awake are you in any kind of pain." I nodded my head with what little focus this migraine was causing me. "Huh where is it?" She looked in between the bed and the rail to keep you from falling off and took this weird looking button switch out. "Just press this whenever you are in pain." She pressed it for me for the first time and I could hear this weird noise before the pain my migraine caused me started to go away. "Thank you very much pretty lady." It did make it hard to focus. "You're very welcome." She walked out with a kind of small laugh trailing after her. I guess they put me on a morphine drip. With what little noise we caused with the transaction her family awoke. "You how dare you lure anything dangerous to our daughter you son of a bitch!" I looked toward her she seemed fine to me beside the bandage wrapped around her entire area of her arm and chest. "I did nothing of the sort if anything if I didn't notice than what's to say what would have happened!" Feeling more pain in my head coming I pressed the button again. "What's that huh you some kind of druggy and you hurt yourself to get a fix?" "Shut up old man you're the one who is causing me to get a head ach." I reached for my head and started to rub my temples. "HEY DON'T TALK TO MY HUSBAND THAT WAY!" "Lower your voice unless you feel like getting kicked from this place and stop bothering me." Now to focus more on who killed me or rather came close to. Listen you fuck the next time you want out I will make sure that before you do I can put you in the worse place possible! Ah boo hoo your alive aren't you. I was about ready to take anything sharp and start cutting anywhere I knew there was a major vein. Keep it up and soon I'll be joining and handing you and put your ass on a platter. He started to shut up soon after. Everything went so fucking wrong in every way possible. But I may have found two new friends in the process. I looked back over to see her sleeping in bed with a concerned family around her. Family something I won't have any more. *Sigh* What can I really do turn back time those murders happened while I was traveling but what could I have done I would have just wound up like my parents, but the feeling of being alone is even worse what can I do! I would only throw myself in a state of relapse if I think back to far I don't and won't go back to that house with the guys in white trying to convince me that I was just over depressed about it all. They were staring at me again Bryan told me they were. "Would you stop staring at me I'm no loon!?" They let out shock from me saying this mainly because I had my eyes closed. "How did you know we were?" "Staring at me because I can sense things, that's how I could track the real person you should be angry at." I raised one of my eye lids to about half ways. "Now you don't seem so angry with me." Getting stared at, made me feel like I had them wrapped around my finger. "Well now I think I might be feeling a bit better." I got out of bed and started to walk around to try and get my legs awake. I checked my back and could feel something on it. I walked over to the mirror and lifted up my shirt to see what appeared to be a dissipating mark. I cocked an eyebrow at the sight of this it reminded me of wolverine how he had that major healing factor that would keep him to an immortal like state. "Hey what's wrong?" The dad acutely sounded concerned for me. "I just found this nasty scratch on my back must have happened when I fought something down in the lobby." They were rather afraid of my say on the matter but they don't know the whole story should I tell them? "Wait is that what they wanted us not to see?" Her sister seemed to know something was up. "Well I did have to fight my way up here there was this weird guy tall white no face and wore a business suit from the looks of it." They looked at a little before I continued. "Well the thing is he looked like he was trying to protect the guy who was going to kill Madi until I guess an old "friend" showed up." This got there interest this time. "She wore a black dress and heels her skin as pale as the moon her eyes as black as coal the only striking resemblance I see between them is that pale skin." Walking around some more trying to wake my legs up I also surveyed Madi's wounds a bit more closely. There was only the bandage on the collar bone area so that lead me to believe she was only stabbed or cut in that area but I hope I sterilized it for the doctors. "Hey if you want to know what went on you should have just asked us first." I looked up toward the mother this time she had a serious face on but not directed toward me. "That cut was rather big but not too serious it will leave a scar but it will be small about two centimeters wide and about two inches long." The dad had his head up eyes closed and arms crossed. "The police say that if you didn't come in at the moment you did he might have done worse to her." I tilted my head trying to think again. "Sorry about before we were just rallied up about all of this." "Hey I understand I travel and I've seen some people go so far as to pull a gun on me because they thought I was sketchy until they learned I was just a foreigner." I walked and grabbed my guitar once I felt like my legs were back in shape and began to pick at some strings. "Why don't I play something to pass the time hmm?" I started to play fighter by Christina Aguilera. I closed my eyes and just let myself get engrossed by the song until something broke me from my own trance Madi was up but her eyes were closed she was walking toward me for some reason I stopped playing so I could talk to her but just as I did she fell over into my arms. "What in the world did you do?" I shook my head whatever I did it was able to get Madi up and walking around so what did I do what it me when I was playing a song or something? I started to play again and this time I realized it was not just Madi but her whole family was attracted to the song. I began to experiment I tried a different song but each time I did it came down to one result they would begin to move towards me. "This could come in handy when I need to get someone out of the way but how I will do such is beyond me." They began to come back to their sense and I just put my guitar in a corner. "Well I guess I should be going." They looked at me a bit shocked but personally I felt fine. I took out some money to pay for what the insurance wouldn't and left the room but not the building, no I was doing a sweep along the floor as to make sure no one sketchy would go to the same hall. Once I did my sweep I began to practice on the roof.

All this time he hasn't said a word and we are on a roof is he really going to? "You know if you think too hard I can read your thoughts as if I were speaking to myself." Crap now I've gone and done it. "I would never jump now that I have someone I have to watch out for." "Now, huh so you would have without someone to protect?" He stopped and did some light thinking. "Yeah I think I would everywhere I would go you would be there trying to make my life hell I would be thrown into a mental institution and there even you would try and off yourself but, now that I have someone I feel like I should watch out for I won't let anything stand in my way…not even you." His voice sounded dissonant so detached from any emotion. "Whatever the case I will make sure you can't fulfill this." Try as you might my dear dead friend this is my body and I still have my mind what are you left with some bitter feeling towards me? Cut the crap I will make sure you watch her die in front of you. "Whatever the case maybe let's eat it's your turn to pick." He let me take partial control when we got to the food distract part of town. I choose some things and began to munch on them. You know if you were to complain a little less I wouldn't have to hold some control. Yeah right even then you would still hold control from me! "Well I guess that is half true I can't let you see my private thoughts those have to deal with my past and only I am allowed to remember such things." Well I guess even I have to respect boundaries I want him to suffer not go off the deep end. "Well come on I think we should go before we get spotted by anyone else." He took control once I was done and we were off to where I don't know. But I did notice that when he was playing no one was following. "How are you not attracting anyone anymore?" I don't know maybe it's because I'm not so stressed out? He kept on playing saying nothing but just as we were about to turn I noticed something and after feeling my uneasiness he felt it too. "This feeling its dark but at the same time it's not." "I can feel it too it has innocents but yet it also has ambition." He took control but I leant him some knowledge. "You better not make me regret giving you this fighting style." "Why would I there is so much I have to do."

I started to play my guitar kind of fast which drew them out of hiding or whatever they were one was wearing a mask with a sad face the other just a hood to cover his. "Why is it that I attract such weird people?" They came close to me. "Before anything else happens what are your names or whatever you choose to go by?" The one in the hood explained. "I'm Hoodie and this is my brother Masky." "Well then my name is Marko or Bryan depending on who you're talking to." They looked a little like they were planning something. "If you guys don't have any reason being here then get out I have to get back on guard duty." They started to talk to each other then looked back at me. "You have a guitar and seem to fit the description our master would like to speak to you." …Master who the heck? "Who is your master and what does he look like?" "He was the tall guy you fought in the lobby of the hospital." I pointed my guitar at them. "We will meet with in the city I'm not going to his place." They seemed to understand and walked off. "And if you run into the guy with the pale face tell him to watch his back because now he has me to worry about as well as that Jane girl!" I went back to the hospital and went straight to her room. When I got there she was awake her family was asleep and there was a slight feeling in the room. "I see you have met Jane." She looked over at me and smiled. "I'm surprised to see you on your feet after what you did to yourself." I glared at her a little. "That was not me at all that was Ryan and he and I are not getting along so well, but hey enough about me I blacked out but considering I'm alive as well as everyone else you had done something didn't you?" She looked at me with those deep blackened eyes of hers. "I did I needed to make sure that no one would fall asleep." "What's up with that you say it as if sleep is a bad thing?" "If you sleep and Jeff is around you will never wake up." Well safe to agree on such terms. "Oh Madi how are you with the cut and all?" She pulled her shirt down to where the cut was. "The doctors say it will be fine in a week and will only leave a small scar at most." My blood began to boil and even Jane was getting a little red around her face. "Well Madi you have a guardian angel/devil with you." I think it's time she knew the truth. "What do you mean you said something about a guy named Ryan?" "Well it's a long story you see I don't know how this happened but I ended up in a car crash you were there by my bedside but what you didn't know is that I have some guys spirit inside me because of the crash he was the other person and now wants me to suffer for ending his life short even though we don't know the whole story." She looked at me for a second and I thought she would call me crazy or something but she just walked over and hugged me. I was in a kind of shock even Ryan didn't know how to react but out of the corner of my eye I could see Jane having her eyes closed and smiling a little. "That is so cool does that mean you have some kind of fighting skill or is it that you have powers or?" "Whoa hold on now powers maybe I can lure people with the music I play but I don't know how that works. Second I have an enemy and Jane over here has mutual feelings about this person." She looked up and at me. "Though she has been after him longer so I won't kill the guy but I would sooner give him a beating he won't soon forget." She didn't seem pleased but she didn't seem bitter about it either. "Whatever it maybe if he or anyone that wants to harm you I would sooner come down and be all like I'M BATMAN! In the same deep and raspy voice of his." She began to giggle then laugh like crazy at this and I couldn't help but join in and even Jane was laughing with us. But just as everyone was settled the two that I ran into early came bursting into the room. I nearly jumped out of my chair but Jane made sure that I didn't. "I remember seeing you two with Jeff and what I heard his name was Slender man." I grabbed my guitar and knocked it to my shoulder. "If I hear another word about him I will not be a happy person." They seemed to be backing away from us. Until the suit himself showed up then everyone went silent. "Well hello there Slender man sorry about that fight in the lobby but I didn't Jeff to kill someone I know." He nodded his head and looked over to her. Madi was in a trance at the people in the room. "Madi say hi to Hoodie and Masky as well as Slender man." She waved her hand before continue to stare at us. "Well I must be off the creepier in here the worse the nurses will freak out." She left me with the three on the opposite side of us. "Don't worry about this guy here he won't hurt you but uh you might want to move somewhere else before she takes a scalpel and starts cutting herself he induces insanity in people just at the mere presence of him." I looked back and could see what she meant. "Alright everyone out now, we shall meet behind the hospital building." "Alright then lead the way." His voice was somewhat deep and gentle but at the same time it sounded like he was lonely or detached. When we got to the back we began our talk. "Give it to me straight is he going to keep on trying to kill her?" He looked down at me before speaking. "He will not stop until one of them is dead I was merely there to try and stop him but then seeing you there I figured you would kill him considering it all." I started to play my guitar a little lightly trying to come up with a tune that matched my emotion but no matter how hard I tried I drew a blank. "He is your friend but that does not mean anything to me she is my friend and I will protect her so we are at an impasse." "I was hoping it wouldn't come down to that." "Make a move and I swear I will show no mercy if I get the chance to kill one of you." "You don't get it you can't kill us we are the very beings of fear do you know how hard it would be to kill us?" "I don't care I will fight till my knuckles bleed, until my legs give up on me from overuse and lack of sleep, until I DIE from over working and even then I will come back from my grave and repeat this process and I will keep coming back until there is no evil that will come for her." From his lack of face I could still see his expression. "Not even you can kill the very being though." "I don't care if the person is deathless I will make sure he will meet a MAD fate." They looked at me for a moment. "MAD?" "It means mutually assured destruction." Slender shook his head at me before disappearing. "You then would have to destroy the very evil that plagues this planet." When they left I found the right way to express it something along the tone of anger and sadness. "Jane if you're still around, heed my words you may only be going after Jeff but if you team up with him just to get close I don't care how well you can fake things I will not let you get her close to him." I began to walk back toward her room and all the while I could notice that not only was my blood boiling but I could feel someone else brooding within my head. "I may not like you but I thought that idiot would stop I'm not going to be the actual cause of some girls death…Just yours!" Well I guess the only other person I can trust is Ryan but even then that is stretching it on a very fine line of thin ice. "Well then we are going to have to train with each other that way we can get better at fighting and controlling whatever it is that allows me to lure people."

The days were long and often hard but he always found time to visit the girl named Madi sometimes she would want to talk to me. I was light on my words but made sure they got my point across. "Madi you know I'm not here to make friends that would be Marko." "I know but we are still buds right?" She would say in the perky child like voice of hers. She reminded me all too well of that girl named Sally we found her while walking home from the woods one night she was playing with this blue button eyed patch work teddy bear. She herself was not at all evil quite innocent in fact but the doll when we drew close started to become a lot more menacing growing claws and when it came in to full light we could see the blood drenched piece of fabric she called her friend. "Fine we will stay away as long as you stay away from my best friend." It seemed to get the picture and ran back to Sally. She looked at it a little disappointed. "Charlie I told you that no one will take me away from you." It hugged her and they got up and started to walk away. The world as we once knew it was no more we now knew about the dark underside of the world. "Marco we will have to worry about so much more if we aren't carful that girl could be working for someone." "Well if they are its just one more person to add on the list of people to watch out for." I could tell this was affecting him but I think it was just ambition. Even though I hate to admit it he has a real sense of duty for protecting this girl he knows little about. But even more, he began to trust me more letting me have more control for longer periods of time. Eventually it got to the point where I was able to have control for an entire day. "You know Ryan as we trust each other more I think back more on that day and now I feel like I can tell you." I started to listen up to his thoughts. "I'm beginning to remember images of that day there was a sense of dread, no it was more like I could sense death itself running its finger up my spine." I was getting these same images too I remember hearing something whisper into my ear before taking control of my body no matter how much I told it to turn the wheel it did not. Until I just blacked out and woke up and seeing darkness there was a voice it was speaking in multiple tongues. "You, you will be the perfect person for the job." His/her voice would speak in many different pitches I could feel it very breath send me in a chill. "Marco we will have to find this person and put him down no longer shall I try to kill you I will focus all my intent on him." I had a smile go from ear to ear. "He will wish you and I never became one." He agreed and we went back to Madi's home to sleep on the couch. We did this until life became comfortable but just leave it to the dark side of things to rear its ugly head out.

All of the enemies we had encountered now found where we were living since we were all placed in witness protection. "You feel them don't you?" "Yeah we can't return home or else you know who will get hurt." "But what if they already know?" "Then we have to find a way to get to them." "Marco Ryan I hate to say it but your right there is no other way the others say that if I can get the girl to Madi they will not intervene with my fight with Jeff." I took control and brought out the guitar. We have been teaching each other ever since day one each others skills learning how to master things and learning things we didn't know before. Such as faster healing better durability ability to lure people out and make them do what we wanted but we made sure it was always good never bad. I started to play a melody; Jane as well as Masky and Hoodie came out from the trees. "How are you?" "Making all of you move, simple we have been practicing not even Slender can keep control for long." I began to make them walk toward me and just as they were about to take the first step something came and slit my throat. The blood gushed everywhere inside my throat and out toward the world. "Shh go to sleep." All that time training gone to waste. I fell to my knees before I could feel his foot on my back pushing me into darkness. And just when I accepted that Madi and I were buds. The cold started to wrap its grip around us Marco I'm sorry that it ended like this I know you want to protect her but how can we when we are dead. Just as the darkness came and the loss of feeling crept I could feel him stab us in the back multiple times. "Shh go to sleep."

Madi I failed you. How could I have been so foolish to think I would be able to go against death incarnate itself? I just hope it won't be too painful when they get you Madi…please forgive me. I drifted off into the eternal darkness until I heard a voice start mocking me. "I thought I choose the right people to stir chaos why do you not obey my little creation I'm the puppeteer and you are the puppet." The more this guy would talk with his many voices the more I felt annoyed until I had it taking out my lighter I grabbed my guitar and lit it to a blaze. He tried to smother it but he could not get close for whatever reason. "Well looks like I did make a stronger creation." I grabbed my guitar and placed it on my back. "I can't give up like I said even in death I shall come back and fight!" I started to do some swimming strokes and found a way out of the darkness. I woke up coughing; reaching for my throat…my throat is dry? I could feel that it was like I was never cut though I couldn't say the same about the blood on my clothes. I got my pack and searched for my clothes. I grabbed my plain red shirt with tan cargo pants. Reaching for some other things I started to think of what to do and how long was I out. "Marco you better hurry up I can feel something coming." We looked up and could see Sally again. "Oh it's just the kid." I picked up everything else and started to run toward the house. When I got there the door was ripped from the hinges. The family was nowhere to be found. I ran to her room and could see things were thrown all over the place. Trying to find a clue to any where about I searched franticly but came out short. "SON OF A BITCH I WILL HUNT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM DOWN!" I ran throughout the house looking for any sign until the very thing I feared was realized. I saw a blood trail lead to a door. Slowly I reached for the knob and opened it. What I saw almost made me puke, it was Jane she was stabbed repeatedly her entrails were kind of out but she was still alive. "I don't know whether to feel sorry for you or finish the job?" I began to compose myself why should I puke now I've seen blood and felt fear I shall not be scared to ends someone's life. "They 'gah' took her." "You don't think I know that why else would the door be ripped off huh why else would you be here bleeding out." I did not like it, and neither did Ryan but she was desperate in trying to fulfill her desire for revenge I began to take out my medical kit and patch her up. "Your organs are going to feel like crap but trust me this is the least of your worries." Once she was patched up I began to play my guitar. "You know something Jane I was hoping not to use this but considering how you are dead without it then I must the one drawback is it will hurt, a lot." I began to play slow but picked up speed. She began to levitate and started to heal rapidly but she was screaming. The healing process is like having your wounds being ripped from your body metaphorically speaking like taking a bandage off you do it quick to minimize the pain. When I was done she was breathing quite heavily. "Now then where are they?!" She looked up at me with her knife in hand. "Don't make me smash your head in I don't have time for you!" She started to get up but she was taking a fighting stance. I grabbed my guitar and lifted it over my head before slamming it down over hers. "Jane, don't make me hurt you anymore then I have to." Getting some rope from my bag I wrapped it around her then I dragged her to a tree tying her to a branch just hanging there. "Since you are not giving me what I want I will make sure you can't get what you want." I started to play and made her speak of where they were going. It was at the school she attends and that her family was fine they weren't here at the time. I grabbed anything I could as transportation and rushed to the school. "It's high time we end it Ryan."

"With pleasure." I took control and we were off on a bike. Rushing though the entire road getting there sun down. "Come out so I can kill you!" Masky and Hoodie came out and ready themselves. "You two aren't even worth my time." Masky rushed me first taking swings. I used Marco's guitar to block while trying to break his legs. But just as I was about to get him Hoodie came from behind and tried to stab me. "That won't work." I ducked and he stabbed Masky in the face. Hoodie fell next to his brother shocked by what he had just done. "No rest for the wicked." I smashed the guitar against his head taking a stance as if I was swinging a baseball bat. His head was smashed clean off. All that was there, was a tendon the spine and other such things. Blood started to gush from his neck making a bloody rainfall and blood starting to pool from Masky's head. "You two should have never done any such thing." I rushed forward trying to find where Jeff took Madi. The next person I ran into was Slender. "You should have never tried to kill me." He had tentacles coming out of his back ready to fight. "Come on I'm right here!" He sent forth his tentacles homing in on me. I tried to use the guitar but he managed to pierce through it. I threw it forward and jumped back. The dark gym was making it hard to fight him. "Come on you coward fight me like a man!" More tentacles grazed my back drawing blood. "GAH I WILL KILL YOU!" More came and I could hear them whooshing throughout the air when I heard one coming I took my chance. I grabbed it and started to pull with all my might. I could feel something until nothing he somehow teleported out of my hands. Reaching into Marco's pocket I took the lighter out and tried to look for the guitar. But more tentacles came again I was getting tired to instead I used my own weapon of choice it may not be original but it is affective. I took some knives out and stabbed it before planting it on the ground. I could hear a slight scream before one by one all of the tentacles were grounded. The light came back on somehow and in the middle of the gym I could see him standing there trying to get his tentacles free.

I found my guitar and started to walk to him. "You should learn how to control your pet more now look at the trouble he brought you in." If he had any his eyes would be watery just from the way his body language was, told me he was in fear. "I don't show mercy to those who would even touch a single hair on her head or help anyone who would." I took out my lighter one last time. "Ryan would you like to do the honors?" Letting out a small manically laugh a huge smile plastered Marco's face. "We find the defendant Slender man guilt of first degree kidnapping verdict death by fire!" I dropped the lighter while walking out of the building and watch from the door window the fire creep up on Slender man. When the fire caught one of his tentacles it shot up on to his body and one by one each of those things caught the only things you could hear was the cracking of wood from the building and scream of pain coming from the man in the black suit. "Jeff you are the last one to kill." Running trying to find where in the world he was there was one place that seemed like his kind of place. On the foot ball field there he was with that smile of his and Madi under his arm. I walked over to them holding my guitar by the neck. "I thought I put you to sleep next time I will make sure you stay asleep." I rushed him and broke his legs. "You won't have the chance to do any such thing Jeff you see Marco has a bone to pick with you."

Taking one of Ryan's knives I started to cut off Jeff's skin. Removing every bone he had before cutting his head off and using it as a base ball. "Madi are you ok?" I walked over to her but she had a mark on her chest it was her scar it was growing. I was about to try and shake her to wake her but then a sense of dread came over me. "Aw Marco and Ryan." The voice the voice I heard from the car crash it wasn't screaming because of pain it was a scream of a mad man. I turned to face evil itself in the face he had many mouths speaking in tongues unknown to me with blood all around him he had no eyes but a bright yellow glow from them. "My how you destroyed the very people I sent to spread harm." I began to shake from fear just because he was looking at me. "You are one of the defiant ones I never understand how someone can deify me." His shadowy figure grew closer to me. "And yet there are, my name is Zalgo and just based off reaction my presence is terrifying to you." Ryan was too afraid to speak but he was keeping an eye on Madi. "You still don't get it do you, I MADE YOU!" He began to laugh like a crazy person but it grew more demonic. "Each day the barrier that keeps me from crossing over gets weaker and closer for me to corrupt and capture all the souls here." He began to look at me even more then at Madi. "If you wish to save your friend from the assured doom of the world then train, train until you have died from over working and even in death train and no matter how hard you try you won't beat me." He began to laugh more disappearing before me but I could still hear some of his final words before leaving. "The ones you have killed are alive and well but they have no recollection and are living within a mansion in a forest, take this as a parting gift."

When I woke up I was in the hospital again I don't remember anything my parent keep saying there was an accident and that I just had amnesia. I went to school the next morning and I saw some guy he looked friendly he had a red shirt with tan pants wild dark brown hair with tan skin, his eyes though were a mismatch pair of purple and yellow. He looked at me before walking off. Every other day or so I swear in the middle of the night I hear a guitar playing a sad melody but whenever I look outside it stops I look up on the roof and no one is there I look around my front and back yard but still nothing all I hear is a voice with the melody playing reminding and always saying. "If you want a guardian angel call Marco, if you want a guardian demon call Ryan."
