Come, Little Matthew

Epilogue - The Birth of a Forest

-20 years later-

Matthew Kirkland-Bonnefoy was now simply a 30 year-old adult, living with his wife, Madeline, and three children.
He left his hometown to go study abroad in Canada, at the McGill University. With the help of certain domains, he became an architecture, a lawyer, and a free-lancing writer both in French and in English.

For the last 5 years, he had worked hard to protect the forest from being destroyed for condo property. There were many cases gone to court, and he won each and every one of them.

Finally, after 20 long years of work, he finally reached his goal; to get permission to keep the forest safe and to be a natural habitat.

And now, the rumours and stories about people disappearing in the woods and being brutally murdered were now extinct. The children and adults could now go in and out the forest without being harmed. Some families (especially Matthew's) went in the forest for picnics, and some other activities that could be done in the forest.

The town was now in peace. All thanks to Matthew.

But underneath all that happiness, Matthew still thought of SlenderMan. Of course he didn't speak of this to anyone; they would have thought he were crazy. But, one day, while walking into the forest alone, he stood before a grand tree. It was beautiful; tall and proud, and very well-built. Its leaves swayed in the cool wind, shining from the sun's rays. Matthew touched its trunk. He closed his eyes, and knew; this was the reincarnation of his fallen friend.

"Hello, SlenderMan."

As he spoke those words, wind flew against the tree, making one leaf fall into his hands. A red maple leaf.

Matthew smiled.

"One day, we will meet again.", Matthew whispered as he clutched the tie in his pocket.

"Come, Little Matthew" became a popular novel soon after its release by the author, M. Williams, which was the pen name the author used throughout his career. In the book, the author said every content and name was fictional; but some people started believing in 'The SlenderMan". It took no harm to anyone, so the author let the fans believe, as he did.

In his house, the author had a copy of his best-selling book in his hands. The cover of the book was a black tie, the same tie described in the novel. He smiled.

"Maybe not in this generation, but someday, our paths will cross once again."

Well, this is the end. D:
