Chapter one: Page 1
6:45pm:
As I entered through the opened gate, I noticed that it was starting to get dark. I quickly scanned the area around my feet, but I couldn't find anything. There wasn't a shed present or a building of any sort. It seemed as if the short building I saw earlier had disappeared before my eyes. Or it was in the heart of the forest. I stared ahead and looked through the empty hole of darkness between the trees. I walked past the gate, and took a few steps closer toward the entrance of the forest.
CrrreeeeaaAAAKKK…SLAM!
I quickly glanced behind me. Instead of seeing an opened gate, I observed a closed gate. I ran toward the steel gate, attempting to open it. Then…I heard a faint –
Click.
I used all of my might to free the gate open, but it was no use…it was locked. I scanned the fenced area, looking for a way escape. I shifted my eyes to the left, and noticed the elongated metal fence. "I could climb over it and run back to the car," I thought.
I walked up to the fence. Placing one hand on the fence, I –
ZAP!
"Ow!" startled, I jumped away from the fence. "It's an electric fence?!" I shook my hand in pain. "…ouuuuch…"
7:15 pm:
The sun had vanished. In autumn, the sun would set early, and it would be dark by approximately seven. Still standing by the gate, I looked back into the forest. I listened carefully. All I heard was the sound of silence. It was a humble sound. Then I heard a voice in my head, an eerie voice. As I focused on the voice, it became louder and louder screaming, "Get out get out…GET OUT!"
Again, there was silence.
I turned on the flashlight, and started to walk toward the vast forestry before me. Once I reached the entrance of the forest, I noticed a small sign posted on one of the tree trunks. I read the sign carefully.
DANGER:
MONSTER INSIDE FOREST
ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK
I scratched the side of my head. I was perplexed. Was there a wolf, coyote, cougar, or some kind of other animal in there? It said a monster…
Then I noticed a handwritten note posted underneath the danger sign.
SLENDER:
FIND THE 8 PAGES AND THE GATE WILL OPEN
AVOID SLENDERMAN
ONCE THE 8 PAGES ARE COLLECTED RUN BACK TO THE GATE AND ESCAPE BEFORE HE CLOSES IT AGAIN
The note was vague. Find the eight pages and you survive? I had no other choice. If I want to escape from this farm, I must listen to the note. So I accepted the challenge and entered the forest to find the eight pages.
8:00 pm:
I had been wandering around the forest for at least forty – five minutes. My breathing was heavy, and I was exhausted. Where were these pages? What do they look like? I understand that finding the eight pages will help you survive from a terrible fate, but why eight pages? Why not eight teddy bears? The voice in my head entered again. Don't ask why; just find the eight pages, and then GET OUT!
I tilted my head upward, and gazed at the stars above me. Compared to the dense and creepy atmosphere, the night sky was absolutely beautiful. I waved my flashlight around. I was clicking the flashlight on and off, trying to save battery power. If I kept it on for too long, it would die; and if there really is a monster in the forest, a dead flashlight wouldn't be good.
8:15 pm:
I focused on the path straight ahead, and noticed I was heading toward a lone tree. There was a small, circular path surrounding it. The tree was odd shaped, and the unnerving.
It was a calm and quiet night; I wouldn't think that there was anything weird going on in the forest. The atmosphere and environment was breath taking.
Suddenly, I saw a white object resting against the tree. I sprinted toward it, and switched the flashlight off. Once I reached the tree, I noticed that the foreign object was a white page with hints of yellow on the corners of the paper. This must have been one of the eight pages the sign was talking about. However, there was something written on the front of the page. I turned on the flashlight.
The page was a typical size; 8½ x 11. The writing on the page was in a pencil medium, and the words seem distressed and in a state of panic. It read:
DON'T LOOK!
OR IT TAKES YOU!
In the bottom right hand corner of the page, there was a simple drawing of a man.
Wasting no time, I snatched the paper that was placed firmly on the tree; and shoved the first page in the pocket of my sweater.
I turned around.
BOooommm…
BOooommm…
BOooommm…
The atmosphere was no longer calm. Instead of the sound of silence, the only sound that I heard was…
Constant bass
