When static filled the air all the campers jumped up and drew their weapons. Well, everyone except Percy, who started jumping up and down like Leo. Clarisse actually almost ran her spear through the white, faceless figure that showed up in the middle of nowhere but stopped when it lifted Percy with something resembling a tentacle coming out of it's back. Percy giggled. Static filled the air again and Percy nodded. When more people showed up, several people swore. Faceless man put Percy down with more static, and Percy stood back, giving the demigods enough time to study everyone. There was a girl with a clock for an eye and a stitched-on smile, a very pale guy with the world's most widest grin and bloodshot eyes with burn marks around them, a guy with a hoodie holding hands with a person wearing a mask, a clown with a long nose and knives for fingers who was somehow holding hands with a little girl with blood coming down her face, a boy who seemed to be fizzing in and out of existence and wearing a version of a costume out of The Legend of Zelda who was holding hands with someone wearing a blue mask, and finally, an eyeless woman wearing a purple dress who was hovering over the little girl in a protective manner.
As if someone had switched on Percy's brain, his thoughts (and mouth) started running a mile a minute. "Slendy! So these are my friends and family and we just went through a war so I think they might be suitable for jobs but I don't think they're crazy enough. Nico might be, but, you know what, actually, never mind, he doesn't like killing for no reason. Maybe one of the Ares kids. They love bloodshed," the demigods started at him as he finished, still seemingly full of energy. Some were starting to wonder who these people were and why Percy was talking about bloodshed and being crazy so easily, others were wondering if Percy had gone insane himself. Clock girl rolled her single eye. "Toby, one day Masky or EJ is going to kill you," she muttered. Percy lit up and practically pounced on her. More than a few Aphrodite kids were squealing when he kissed her, and Eyeless woman looked more than disapproving of the display. When they got up, Annabeth spoke up. "Percy, what's going on? Who is this? I'm, uh, assuming this isn't a recent development?" "Huh?" Percy looked as if he just remembered where he was. All the demigods jumped in startlement as he started twitching. It got so bad that soon, cracks started echoing around the camp. Will stood up, confusion clear on his face. "Percy, since when did you have Tourette's?" Clock girl rolled her eye again. "One question at a time before Toby starts ticking himself into the fire," Indeed, Percy was very close to the flames. "Okay, where do I start? Um, what's going on. That. These are my adoptive family, the Creepypastas. You guys might know them, BEN helps our stories make it onto the internet. After the war I guess they heard and Slenderman wanted to check on me, and then everyone else wanted to come. Who they are. This is my girlfriend, Clockwork, that's Sally and her sort-of sister Lulu. That's Jeff, over there is Ben and EJ, or Eyeless Jack, that's Laughing Jack, we call him LJ because there are way too many Jacks, and then those two are Masky and Hoodie. Um, girlfriend. Yeah, uh, I've been dating her for 5 years. Technically, we're killers, don't worry, we only kill abusive people like Sally killed her abusive uncle. I took an oath on the River Styx not to kill anyone while I was here at camp, too. And Tourette's. I have another name that some people might know. My Alias is Toby Rogers, AKA Ticci Toby," Percy said without even pausing for breath. "Oh! And that's Slenderman," he added. More static as another tentacle lifted Percy away from the fire. "Wait, you're killers? And Percy, you can understand all that buzzing?" Annabeth demanded. Clockwork rolled her eye. "I thought you were supposed to be smart. We only kill abusive relatives, teachers and strangers. If you haven't noticed, Jeff over there has a knife. And yes, he can understand Slenderman. We all can," Annabeth looked very angry, and Percy's grin widened. "Don't worry, Clocky's very rude to nearly everyone," he ducked as said person tried to slap him. Annabeth frowned. "Well, that's not right. Our job is to protect mortals. You're killing them," Slowly, Piper stood up and went to stand next to Percy. "You're right Annabeth. But think about who they're killing. We kill monsters, to stop them from terrorizing mortals. They kill the ba- Abusive mortals to stop them from abusing kids. It's the same thing," Percy's grin almost got as wide as Jeff's. Annabeth was about to argue when Clarisse stood up to. "Not to offend, but I'm siding with Prissy. Gods know how many abusive parents my siblings have," The Stoll brothers literally ran up to LJ. "Hey! We've heard of you! You have some really sick pranks!" Percy groaned as they started talking. He hadn't counted on the Hermes cabin potentially befriending the pranking killer. Then again, it would make some jobs easier. Drew spoke up. "Wait, but I thought you were dating Annabeth?" "I had to date Annabeth because it would look really suspicious if I didn't, don't you think?" Percy replied. There was a crack punctuating every word now. "But Toby has brown hair and a scar. And what about his back story?" Annabeth finally asked. "Glamorous, and when I can't, makeup. Speaking of which, can I take it off now Slendy? It feels like someone is continuously poking me with Jeff's knife," the entity nodded and nearly all the demigods jumped back as a horrible scar showed up on his face. "That's better. As for my backstory, it's very long. Sit first otherwise you'll start to fall over,"
