Slender Man

Shuichi Aizawa

It's been 3 days since I had contact with Matsuda. We still have no clue what is keeping him at Misa's house. It is pissing the investigation team off quite a bit.

So Light (our "leader") decided I should go to Misa's house and look for Matsuda. However I had to stop by the rest stop quick for directions. What I got out of my car what I saw killed me.

Mangled bodies ripped open, its chest exposed and from the hips down seemed to only appear. The body was still fresh so he couldn't have died maybe a day or less ago. Whats worse is that he looks to just be a kid. White hair, and dark glazed over eyes. He lay next to a truck, now splattered with blood. To much to be from one person. I reach for my cell when I realize I left it at home. "Fuck!"

I look around for the direction of the rest stop and spot it. Without stepping on the silently screaming victim, I jog over to the rest stop.

Once inside I notice the pay phone right away. I walk quickly, taking out a few coins. I wait for the call to go through, and hear a beep. "Hello?"

"Light it's me, Shuichi. I just found a dead body by Misa's house. It is only a kid! He looked a little like L, but white hair instead of black. He is by the rest stop."

"Alright the team is on there way!" He hung up.

I hang the phone back up and look around the stop. Nothing much to it really. There are some snack machines and soda machines, along with benches to sit on. For some dumb reason the bathrooms were outside. Good thing I don't have to pee haha, I thought miserably. Because I did have to.

That's when I see a page flickering between an open window. It said in painstakingly messy letters Don't look back! I grab it, and look more closely at it. The Cs are slightly curled...

"Misa!" I exclaim. Then it dawned on me. Misa, Matsuda, that kid...

BOOM!

I am running as fast as humanly possible. My breath kept coming in short little wheezes. Man I should have listened to my wife, I need to lose weight. I keep running. When I run into a tree. Holding my nose I kept running, this time though I knew I wasn't going to make it. He knew.

He saw the face. He saw that it was someone eerily familiar. Someone who killed a man he considered a friend. Killed him out of cold blood.

His heart skips a beat. No, it can't be...

BOOM!

He's getting closer.

BOOM!

He's way to fast!

BOOM!

No I have to solve the case! For -

"Hey old man. You actually look twenty you know that?"

I turn, simply regretting it.

"Boo!"

Red fills my vision, and I seem to be falling. Slowly but surely. Like him. I bet my eyes looked filled with betrayal. No They probably aren't. Because I was stupid enough to look back.
