WEAR HEADPHONES. PLEASE. I DON'T RECOMMEND LISTENING TO THIS SONG AT HIGH VOLUMES WITH CHILDREN AROUND. IF YOU'RE AN ONLY CHILD OR HOME ALONE, I STILL RECOMMED HEADPHONES SO YOU DON'T WEIRD OUT NEIGHBORS. I ALSO LEARNED THAT THE HARD WAY.
Middle fingers up! If you don't give a fuck!
I'm sick to death of swallowing every single thing I've said!
Middle fingers up! if you don't give a fuck!
You think you're changing anything?
QUIT SAYING ANYTHING!
Kat's POV
I awoke to a familiar voice's bitter crying. My eyes flew open and I looked around. Gray sunlight dimly lit the unfamiliar room. Alex was sitting on the floor, knees against her chest, leaned up against the unfamiliar bed, crying her "eyes" out.
I sat up and swung my legs over the edge of the bed, careful not to hit Alex. I shook her shoulder. She looked up, rubbing off the red liquid stuff dripping down her pale face – I was really not used to that- and dripping to the floor in puddles. "Hey, I'm okay! I'm awake! I'm fine!" I said, waving my sore arms around dramatically and grinning. She smiled while choking a bit. "It's not just you I was worried about"- she sniffled-"it's Jeff, too." She said, choking on her words. My eyes widened. Jeff. Jeff… His memories flashed in my head for a full second before disappearing. I had forgotten about Jeff! I pushed myself off the bed and grabbed Alex's hand.
Oh my god! How could I forget Jeff?! I thought frantically. He was probably more affected by whatever the hell happened than I was… wait, after I looked in the mirror, something within me growled at Jeff. Could there be …? I burst through Jeff's door before I could even finish that thought. Sally and EJ whirled around, a nervous and tense look on Sally's face, a look that she was too young to wear, while EJ's painted black eyes burned into me. (AN: ?) Sally relaxed when she saw us. "He woke up a few seconds ago." Sally explained, smiling.
Jeff bolted up and pointed accusingly. "First off, What the fuck? Second of all, how long have I been out?" Jeff said, never taking his eyes off me.
Asshole.
"You both have been out for a full 24 hours." Slenderman's deep voice boomed. "Damn… 24 hours?" I said in disbelief. "Yes, but I already know what caused this whole dilemma." Slenderman said calmly. "Then explain away 'cause I don't know about Kitty here"- "IT'S KAT, THANKS!"- "but I think I'd like to know just what the fuck happened to me 24 hours ago!" Jeff exploded.
Slendy began "Well, there goes a prophecy about two girls destined to-". I made my way out of the room. "Nope. Nope. Nope." I said, opening the door and walking down the gray hallway, towards the stairs. "Wait, Katherine! You haven't even heard the whole prophecy yet!" Slenderman said, sweat-dropping.
"Ha! Prophecies? Destined to do and be something? Is this a fanfiction or something? I'm sorry, Slendy, but Alex and I gotta go catch the Nope Train to Fuckthatville." I said dragging Alex down the stairs. "HEY, WAIT! I NEVER AGREED TO ANY PROPHECIES OR NOPE TRAINS!" she screeched, waving her arms and scratching at the stairs. I headed towards the door.
I was about to open the door when a blunt, bloody axe suddenly flew by me and buried itself in the door. Urgh.I let go of the doorknob. "Hm, this looks like a nope vs. nope situation.." I whispered to Alex, pointing upstairs then towards the axe.
A sharper, shinier axe was suddenly at my neck. "D-Don't move. L-Listen, you're going to w-walk b-back upstairs and listen to the d-damn thing, or I will h-have to drag your bloody body in one hand and y-your h-head in the other all the way back upstairs so you can't be an ignorant little shit in death, too." The stuttering, muffled voice whispered violently. Goggles and a mask greeted me instead of a face. "Fine. I'll listen to your freaking story, but it's only because I like my head.." I said, slowly pushing the axe away from my throat and patting the top of my own head, then his. "Someone's grumpy." Alex mumbled.
I then proceeded to drag Alex back upstairs and into Jeff's room. "Oh, look who decided to join the party again." Jeff said sarcastically, turning up his nose, crossing his arms, and facing the other way. Fucking prick. "Oh shut up. So what's up with this story of yours, Slender?" I said turning away from Jeff.
"I might have lied when I said prophecy… it's a bit more of a prediction… Two girls, one controlling the body and one the mind, will defeat and destroy Zalgo, the most vicious and brutal of us- no of his kind. The prediction also says…"
It was around this time that I realized that Slendy had a very deep and smooth voice, it also had a hint of a British accent, Like Benedict Cumberbatch almost or some sort of European accent… I couldn't really put a finger on it… hmm… I stared at Jeff, who was still pretty pissed. He glared around the room. Sally had fallen asleep, her tiny nose twitching every once in a while. Alex sighed and let her head hit the floor. I could honestly not care less about this whole "prophecy" thing. I mean, I didn't know who this Zalgo guy was, but he could go suck a fuck 'cause I wasn't gonna lay a hand on him.
"And that is why the both of you fell unconscious for the last 24 hours." Slendy concluded. Aw, crap! I missed it!
"NO NO NO! WAIT, REPEAT WHY WE FELL ASLEEP!" I yelled, pulling Jeff by his hood. He yelped as he hit the floorboards, then turned to growl at me. "Not now, Jeffy boy, Slendy's explaining!" I scolded, slapping the top of his head. He gave me quite the death glare.
"Please just explain why Kat and Jeff blacked out after screaming. I think that's all anyone can take right now, anyways." Alex sighed, standing up and dusting herself off. Yeah, the room had gotten tense with irritation. I had done that, hadn't I?
Slendy began again, "Well, children, the prediction slash prophecy stated that there would be two girls who would have the power to control another's body and mind. The only other two girls who had become creepypasta at the same time were-" I had to cut off this faceless fucker off right here.
"What the fuck do you mean 'became creepypasta at the same time'? Alex and I are completely human!" I argued.
"If you were human, you couldn't have possibly entered the Creepypasta world, genius. Only we are allowed to go to the human and Creepypasta world as we please." Jeff snorted. I hated this guy so much. I opened my mouth to yell back at him but got cut off by Slenderman.
"CHILDREN, PLEASE!" Slender thundered, you could see the inside of his mouth, which was completely black. No teeth or tongue. WAIT HOW COULD HE TALK? Oh, right, I have to pay attention!
"As I was saying, the only two girls that have turned at the same time were Jane-" Everyone looked away uncomfortably when they heard her name. Sally even left the room. "-and Clockwork and they don't have any powers in particular. You two are the only others that ended up here at the same time." He concluded. "So there can't be any more girls after us?" I asked almost sarcastically.
"Ha! Well, I'm no psychic or card reader but IF YOU PAID ATTENTION MAYBE YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND THAT WE'RE ALL STILL TRYING TO FIGURE THAT SHIT OUT!" EJ screamed in annoyance. Slender ignored him. "That spell or curse you put on Jeff was quite impressive. Did you see or dream about anything?" Slender asked patiently.
I sighed. "I think I might have been hallucinating or something, but I remember seeing a vision about a boy who got so beat up by these three annoying little shits he totally lost it an killed everyone. It's kind of funny because he looks just…like…" I trailed off. My eyes widened. Oh my god… How could I forget? Slender sighed.
"The prediction says that one girl could be able to see and manipulate pasts and memories. The one who has those abilities controls the mind. The other girl can manipulate or deal injuries to a victim's body without even touching them. This one is the one who can control the body." He said wisely.
"So I think I know why Jeff blacked out, but why me? I mean, I'm supposed to the one actually dealing damage." Asked, my stomach slowly tying itself in knots. "Well, you've only just found out about them and haven't even used them much, excepting two days ago." He explained.
"So I have to wear these abilities in like new shoes or something? Like, practicing on actual people?" I said in disbelief. My face twisted in worry. My stomach twisted itself into horrible knots. I could really scar someone. I could kill people with this kind of ability. I could be a murderer waiting to happen…
Slender hesitated. "…Yes. Though-" He got cut off by Jeff. "Look, it seems like an awful thing to do, you know, murdering people. But after your fourth or fifth kill, you lose all the worries… all the guilt. And sometimes you just don't feel anything at all." Jeff said. I couldn't tell if he was trying to reassure me or horrify me. Maybe both.
Alex stared at Slender, her eyes leaking more red slime than usual. "We seriously have to kill people? Oh, no! I could never… I mean, it's horrible!" She said, red dripping on to the floor once more. She was crying.
EJ reached down and put his hand on her shoulder. "I know it seems bad, but it's the only way." He said. These guys were horrible at reassuring people. I was pissed.
"Hey, Jeff. Did we bring anything with us when we came here?" I asked. He seemed startled that I had spoken to him. "What? Uh, no, I don't think so." He said cautiously. Alex brushed EJ's hand off her shoulder, grabbing my arm so I could pull her up. "Good, because we're leaving." I said. Alex and I ran down the stairs. The guard-boy with the axes was and mask was sitting on the couch and seemed startled, yelling "H-hey wait!" In a slightly dorky (but somewhat cute) voice. We ignored him. We were almost at the door when a flash of black and white appeared and a sudden force shoved me on the tile floor. I had landed on my side but hit my head hard. A warm wet feeling slid down my head. I touched the skin next to my ear and looked at the substance in my hand. Black. Was this my blood?
I looked up at Alex, who was paralyzed with a mix of fear and confusion on her face. I sat up as quickly as possible and stared at the figure in front of me.
It was a girl. She had a somewhat ruffly and worn strapless black dress that went to about knee length, long black hair that went to the small of her back and bangs that stopped right above her "eyes". She didn't have a real face. It was a mask. A white "face" with faded pink lips and black eyes. Slenderman greeted her in a voice filled with a anger and sadness.
"Hello…Jane."
