This is my very first (posted) fanfic, so please be nice! Constructive criticism is much appreciated!
Yes, this is a Slenderman story :D
Warnings: Rated T for Language (PG-13). Rating may change in later chapters.
Disclaimer: Slenderman doesn't really belong to anybody. He's a loner. Kat belongs to me, as do the rest of my OC's. Edit: Guy is not a stupid name; it's of French origin and is pronounced "Gee."
Prologue
I run, my feet pounding against the hardened earth as my muscles burn in protest. Suddenly, I topple to the ground as large hands grab my shoulders, pulling me back with a painful jerk. My head spins at the sudden impact, and I gaze fearfully up at my attacker; my ex, Guy, looks down at me, pure rage in his eyes. I whimper as he reaches into his back pocket, pulling out a pocket knife.
"All I asked was that you dropped the damn charges!" He spits, pressing the knife's blade to my neck.
I knew exactly what charges he was talking about; throughout our relationship, he had stolen money from my bank account, which helped to fuel his alcohol addiction. Once I discovered this, I went to court and pressed charges. He confronted me a few weeks later, asking me to drop them, and then became enraged once I refused. It has been three days since our little chat, and now, he has come after me.
He grabs my arm roughly, pulling me into a sitting position, and presses the blade harder against my skin, drawing blood as it bites into my neck just enough for the flesh to split. I look up at him, my vision blurred with tears.
"Please…" I sob, desperate.
"It's too late, you selfish bitch." He growls, putting even more pressure against my neck as I cry out, closing my eyes instinctively.
Suddenly, the pressure on my neck is gone.
"Oh, God, thank you…" I breathe, opening my eyes. My relief is not long lived; Guy has been replaced by… something else. A giant, thin, monster in a suit holds Guy in its hands. I don't scream until I see the monster's face, or rather, its lack of one; features are replaced by smooth white, uninterrupted except for two slight indentations where eye sockets should be.
I can feel it looking at me, and I cower in fear.
"W-What are you?" I whimper.
It tilts its head slowly, the subtle motion somehow instilling fear into my very core. Slowly, a voice fills my head, rather than being spoken aloud, a deep and raspy sound. The voice is that of a demon, of something that haunts nightmares.
"I am your… savior," It says.
With that single answer, warm liquid splatters my face and clothes as the monster rips the seemingly unconscious Guy in half. Torn entrails and loose organs fall to the ground to rot among the foliage, and the creature drops the two halves of Guy's body to lay with them in the dirt.
I stare, shocked, at the bloody, horrible mess in front of me. Unexpectedly, the thing's voice once again penetrates the silence.
"This is not the end…"
When I look up, the monster is gone. I lay staring at Guy's corpse for a long while after that, until a stray hiker finds me and takes me home, asking no questions…
AN: Sorry for the INSANELY short chapter! I really want to know if you guys like this, so please R&R! I promise the following chapters will be much longer and have less of an… unfinished feel. Please review! It is much appreciated! And the girl's name is not mentioned, but it is Kat, the main character ~ I already have the next chapter written, it is just a matter of typing it :3
