New update I derped up last night and didn't update… nice fail on me. Anyway, if you like my stories (psh like anyone does) I highly suggest subscribing to me so you can be alerted when I make new stories. I have six soon to be seven I think. Anyway, ENJOY!

Exo cracked his eye open. He never was tired. The adrenaline kept him awake. He quietly got up from his bed and tip-toed past the others. The creeper looked like it was still awake. Exo stared at Creepetta and froze. He stayed like that until he heard faint hissing almost like… snoring. He was safe.

He grabbed the map he got from the strange man, picked up his stone sword, made a few torches, and went outside.

He was cautious. The house was dark, so it wouldn't attract enemies. The cost was clear but the assassin proceeded with care. He went through the forest and used torch to see his map.

It looked like an area nearby was circled and had a pair of dice that seem to have both landed on 1. Exo shrugged and walked on.

Little did he know that he was being watched by almost everything.

He thought he heard a noise. Being in a dark forest with little or no light reminded him of something. He heard a deep indiscernible sound. He knew what creature made that sound. He ran, looking down at his shoes. It couldn't hurt him if he didn't look at it.

A/N: I now see why mojang had copyright infringement with slender.

He was almost to the place on the map. He tripped and fell in a small hole.

"Oof!" he cried as he smacked the stone ground.

He got up slowly and shook his head. He saw a small crack that was emitting smoke. He stabbed at the rock with his sword and it crumbled. Bits of rock rained down into what lay before him. The oven that emitted the smoke was extinguished.

Exo had a bad feeling about entering but he heard the sound again and decided what was down there couldn't be worse. He jumped and heard the creature pass by. He held his breath. The mob had lost him. It was leaving. Exo relaxed. He relaxed too early. He heard a bowstring tighten behind him.

His eyes widened and his hand went for his sword.

"Don't!" rasped a voice from behind him. Exo held his hands up reluctantly and slowly turned around. The archer wasn't anyone he'd seen before.

She had jet-black hair with engineer goggles like the ones he had at his place perched on top of it, a dark green T-shirt, black skinny jeans, and a black converse that reached mid-calf. But what caught his attention was her eyes. Her right one was purple and the left one was lime green. They both had slitted pupils.

Enderman's eye. Or Enderwoman's eye.

"Have you been following me?" he asked.

The archer tilted her head.

"I guess not. Listen, I come in peace. I was following a map given to me by a strange villager. It led me here."

The half-human looked at him in the eyes. Exo instinctively looked away. The archer smirked.

"What did you expect to find?" she asked.

"Certainly not this place," Exo said still looking away.

"I'm not like an enderman. I won't freak out when you look at me. Maybe."

Exo relaxed and turned back to her.

"Well, um… I'm kind of leading a team against the mobs and I'm wondering if you want to help me," the assassin said nervously.

The half-enderman thought for a minute.

"Maybe. I don't trust you yet," she stated.

"Oh well, if you want to help, my house is over by the mountain. I have a two other humans, two skeletons, two enderman, a creeper, and a zombie helping me."

The half-human didn't look surprised.

"Okay, now leave."

"Fine, but be careful, something was chasing me before I dropped in," Exo said while climbing out.

"Oh wait, what's your name?" Exo asked before he sealed up the hole.

The half-human teen hesitated.

"Snake," she said finally.

"Well, hopefully I'll see you later Snake."

And with that Exo moved on.

The sound.

"Really? No head-start?" Exo mumbled sarcastically. He took off. The next place was circled and had a few symbols on it. The symbols looked a huge distance, a piece of flint, and a piece of stone.

The sound got closer and Exo felt his head getting fuzzy.

"My god, not a slender cameo."

Sorry.

He kept running. His torch extinguished and he fell down a small chasm he didn't see. He smacked the bottom.

"Augh!"

The noises echoed down the chasm. Exo hid under and overhang. The hellish sounds disappeared. Exo turned and saw a small make-do house in the chasm wall. He went over to the window and peered inside. He knocked on the door. No one answered.

He heard the cracking of stone nearby. It was not coming from inside the house but at one end of the chasm. Exo sneaked along the walls sword at the ready. The figure was digging at the wall. Exo thought he recognized the being.

"Ixchel?" he asked.

The figure whirled around and clubbed Exo with the stone pick. Exo slammed into the wall. He saw stars.

"I'm not Ixchel. I'm your worst nightmare," he said.

Another blow struck Exo. He only felt half of it. He didn't stay conscious long enough to feel it.

EOC

Cliffhanger. Continuation will be up tomorrow. Don't worry. Sweet dreams Exo; don't let the slenderman bite. Yeah bad joke anyway. Caio! Keep Readin'!
