Ch. 2

Shadow X and Shadow C. both appeared in a large room, similar to the cartoon Elder's room.

"Hey guys, I'm back." Shadow C. said.

Four figures in cloaks emerged from the shadows, and took their seats in four large chairs. One by one, they removed their hoods.

"Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger, Chucky, and Jigsaw." Shadow X said, naming off each cloaked figure. "Well, that seems about right. Now, what's going on in the horror multiverse that you need my help?"
"To do that, we would need to tell you the history of our multiverse," Jigsaw said. "You see, the philosophies of our worlds are different from yours. We thrive on two things: fear and death."

"We used to spend our days terrorizing humans, even going as far as to kill and torture some. I know I enjoyed those days, seeing of some humans were smart enough to escape my deadly traps…." Jigsaw's voice drifted off, but he quickly came back to reality. "However, we soon realized that the death tolls we racked up were too high, and we had to change our ways. Now, we stick to simple scare tactics, and kill only those who would treat other humans with contempt."

"What, you mean like bullies and stuff?" Shadow X asked.

"That's one way to put it, yes. However, recently a new horror figure has appeared, and he's been going around killing humans willy – nilly. If this continues, the humans may soon discover our true existence, and eradicate us."

"Okay….I see where you're going with this," Shadow X said. "But still, people would be better off without you horror people. Monsters, psychos…the list goes on!"

"Kid, we know what we are," Chucky said. "But you heard old puppet – man. We only kill the really bad people, and we scare from levels of shock and fright to being traumatized."

"Plus," Freddy interjected, "Shadow C. is a horror figure too. You wouldn't want to lose one of your friends, would you?"

Shadow X looked over at Shadow C. She glared back at him, but he saw through her. She didn't care what happened to her, but she wanted all her Creepypasta friends to be safe. And she especially didn't want any harm to come to Pirate Percy.

Shadow sighed. "Fine, I'll help. So, what info do you have on the unknown horror character?"

"Well, we don't know much, but we do know that he wears a black cloak, and his weapon of choice is a kitchen knife." Jason said.

"Great, that describes pretty much every single horror figure that isn't a monster!" Shadow C. yelled. "We need to nail this guy and now!"

"All right, me and C will go out and look for this guy. Let's hope he hasn't caused too much damage." The two Guardians then teleported out of the Elders room, and deep into the subspace of the horror multiverse.
