Mooooooooooooooo0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0oving on!
Toby and Smile Dog were staring at Syndra and Syndra back at them, trying her best to smile as the almost demonic eyes of Smile Dog studied her from top to bottom. Toby took a step forward and leaned forward so that he could stare clearly at Syndra who leaned backwards a bit.
Toby's neck cracked and he said:
"H-H-Hi."
"...Hi."Syndra said trying to keep her smile at the cracking noise. Toby's head twitched before he continued:
"I-I-I am T-Toby. D-Don't listen t-to Laughing J-Jack so don't c-call me T-Ticci."
"Umm..okay...why do they call you Ticci?"
Syndra could see how Toby's eyes widened in anger through the orange lents of his protection glasses as he said:
"B-Because of my g-goddamn t-tics!"
"What my human comrade is trying to say is that he has a form of the Tourette syndrome which makes his neck crack and his head twitch. He can't control them and this why he became the subject of mean jokes and nicknames which tortured his childhood."Smile Dog explained.
"Oh...that must be, awful...I'm Syndra!"Syndra said trying to change subject knowing too well what happens when you have someone with two hatches in front of you and when you highly question his sanity.
"Se kiddo?Told you they would love to see you!"Laughing Jack said.
"Do you really thought that bringing a human here, to see us?What will he say?"Smile Dog said as he circled around Syndra, grinning at her. That horrible grin...
"Ah come on doggie, me and Slendy are good friends!"Laughing Jack said as he picked up the hideous dog and looked at him. "Just how grumpy do you think he is?No one is grumpy when Laughing Jack is nearby!"
"Put me down this is instant or I will harm you."
Jeff closed the door shut behind him and for the first time since he did this all killing thing, he collapsed onto the bed letting out heavy sigh. That Draven guy and his retarded story about a white man being thrown into a prison filled with black men!
He rubbed his eyes before yawning loudly, this was a weird and very short night but hey, he got to kill the blonde girl and the man named Draven. As much as he wanted to enjoy every moment of Draven's death, he had to be quick so that he wouldn't notice, yea, he got pretty carried away with that retarded story.
"I see you had a pretty bad night."A soft yet creepy gentleman voice said from the corner of the room. Jeff groaned and said:
"No shit Sherlock, why are you here anyways?"
The owner of the voice stepped out of the shadows revealing his completely white face, black tuxedo and his crimson red tie.
"Such language, anyways, I wanted to see if you had seen Laughing Jack, I can't find anywhere."Slender Man said as he looked out the window. Jeff placed himself on a sitting position and asked:
"Wait, is that creepy clown here?"
"Exactly, he and some of the others back home, for example, Toby, Smile Dog and I think I've saw BEN on my way here."
"Don't tell me that all of those guys are here with us..."
"Yes they do now if you'll excuse me, I need to keep looking for him."Slender Man said before he placed his hand in his pocket looking for his watch. The only problem was the fact that instead of the watch he found the mouse trap which Laughing Jack put it there.
"CURSED BE THAT INSANE CLOWN!EXCUSE ME!"Slender Man before he released his fingers from the trap and vanished into thin air.
Jeff simply shock his head and decided that it was a perfect time to go to sleep.
Syndra and her new friends, or possible killers, stood under the tree listening to Toby's story.
"A-And t-then I set fire t-to the f-forest!"Toby said as he finished his story. Laughing Jack clapped and handed him a candy.
"And now, how about you tell us your story Synny!"Laughing Jack said as he looked down at Syndra who sat besides him.
"Well...You see..I..."Syndra tried to find a way to start her story when she suddenly heard a terribly loud buzzing sound. Her ears almost bleed as the sound got louder, and louder and louder making her cover her ears and almost scream in pain.
"YOU!"Slender Man shouted as he advanced towards Laughing Jack.
"Me!The one and only Laughing Jack!"The monochrome clown said, spreading his arms.
"How many times must I tell you, STOP TOYING WITH MY POCKETS, HOW DO YOU EVEN MANAGE TO PUT ALL THOSE THINGS IN THEM ANYWAYS AND-"Slender Man cut himself up as he noticed Syndra, almost crying in pain. "And you brought a human here too?!"
"Come on, am I in the Party Crusher Land?What if I brought a human here?She is alright with us!"Laughing Jack said, crossing his arms and for the first time in his life, pouting. Slender Man sighed and said:
"And what if she finds out what you did, what we did exactly?Tell me Laughing Jack, what will she say about you if she would find out what you did?"
Laughing Jack's pout transformed into a scowl, he never thought about this, to him, Syndra was special, he never ever meet someone with absolutely no friends at her age, he could only pity her and this is why he offered her his friendship, that and the fact that he didn't really had any friends too.
The first kid, the one for which he was created in the first place made him the thing that he is now, if that kid would've remained normal maybe Laughing Jack wouldn't end up like this and maybe he would've kept his colors.
"Who says she will find out?"Laughing Jack said in a barely audible whisper which Slender Man heard.
"Of course she will find out Jack, humans are curious, humans will judge and humans will run away from you once they realize what you really are."
"And what am I exactly?!"Laughing Jack asked, anger building in his voice.
"To tell you honestly, you are just an angelic creation went wrong."Slender Man said in the flattest tone ever. To add insult to the injury he was right and it was kinda funny to think that a guardian angel created him. Laughing Jack moved forward until he was just inches away from the blank face of Slender Man, his fangs showing as he grit them to the point of cracking. He knew that he couldn't kill him, that he wasn't human, he wasn't sure what Slender Man really was, a monster?An entity?An agent of Satan?Maybe he was Satan himself, as for him, Laughing Jack knew all to well what he was, he was a demon, an insane clown, a monster, a creature between angelic creation and a demon or the result of someone's dark side of the mind.
He wanted to say something to the blank faced gentleman but everything he wanted to say was stuck in his throat.
"I will talk with you tomorrow clown, for now I have more pressing manners then your illogical decisions."Slender Man said before he vanished into thin air.
Laughing Jack stood there, hands balled into his fists, fangs grit to the point of breaking and taking in deep breaths.
"J-Jack..A-Are you a-alright?"Toby asked.
"...Get some sleep Toby, poor old Jack is fine..."Laughing Jack responded. Toby knew too well to not push the monochrome clown and did as told, pulling his hood further so that it was covering his eyes before placing himself under the tree.
Laughing Jack looked at the limp Syndra knocked out by the pain insane ringing which vanished once Slender Man vanished too. Sighing he slowly slid his long arms under her limp form and picked her up in a bridal way.
"Come on buddy, let's get you to bed..."Laughing Jack said as he moved towards Syndra's private quarters. He placed her in her queen sized bed, slowly covering her with the blankets before slowly exiting her private rooms and walked down the long corridors of the Institute of War, his claws brushing against the walls from time to time. This wasn't him anymore, this was a sad clown walking with no direction through the long halls, Slender Man's words still echoing in his weird mind:
"Tell me Laughing Jack, what will she say about you if she would find out what you did?"
Syndra woke up with knocks on the door and with a very big headache from the last night events. Groaning and kicking away the blankets she got up and moved to the door, opening it to reveal none other then Karma. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes she said:
"What do you want now?"
"Come to the library."Karma said in the most serious tone she could muster. Syndra scoffed and asked:
"And why should I do something like this?"
"Just come, you need to read this, is about your friend, Laughing Jack."
Syndra's interest sprung to life so she continued:
"And what about him?"
"Syndra we can stay here all the morning and chat or you can follow me and see what I want to show you."
Syndra really hated when Karma was right...
The library was huge, I mean not like huge, but HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE. Every kind of book was there, every type, every subject was there. Syndra floated behind Karma, letting her lead the way through the bookshelves until the elder stopped on a far away bookshelf. It was covered in dust an spider webs, various weird books were there, old ragged books which seen better days. After a moment Karma selected a book and pulled it out, placing it on the table behind them.
She opened the book on a certain chapter and stepped aside, saying:
"Please read."
Syndra slowly approached the book and the first thing that caught her eye was the title of the chapter:
'Monsters and Demons 5: Laughing Jack.'
Her eyes went wide as she read the title and studied the ilustration spreading across the next page. It depicted Laughing Jack in what appeared to be a dark forest, his wide grin revealing all his jagged teeth as he held one of his hand around a kid's shoulder while the other one held a fistful of candy, like he was offering them to the reader. The kid in the illustration was hideous, the young girl had her eye sockets completely black like his mouth, very dark blood dripping from them.
"COME ONE, COME ALL! WHETHER BIG OR SMALL! TO SEE THE BEST CLOWN OF THEM ALL! The one, the only, LAUGHING JACK-IN-A-BOX!"
This is how the chapter began and of course that Syndra found nothing out of the ordinary with this. That happened when she read further into the chapter and the most sickening part was the last one, when after 13 years of isolation, Laughing Jack finally exited his prison and 'played' with his friend for life.
All this time, the two champions didn't notice the tall monochrome clown sitting behind them, leaning down so that he could read his own origins.
"I know you are here demon."Karma said as she turned to face the tall clown. Laughing Jack narrowed his eyes at the comment, staring right back at her. Of course, Karma had no idea that Laughing Jack could disembowel her with one swift strike of his long claws and that was one of the main reasons which made her sit still, in front of him while insulting him.
"We know about your past and about what you did you sick and deranged monster!"Karma spat at him not letting Syndra tell her point of view. Laughing Jack's teeth grit again, anger taking over himself once more. No, he needed to contain himself, he couldn't kill Karma in front of Syndra who had second thoughts about him, he was going to sit and wait, wait like he did couple of years ago...
He looked at Syndra who looked at the book then at him with a scared look. Shacking his head he turned around and left the library, heading towards the only thing which he could call home, the box.
"See Syndra?You see now what was I trying to tell-"
"What am I supposed to see?!I only saw how you and your stupid Ionian shit took away my first true joy in this life!"Syndra sneered at Karma. "Don't you dare talk to me again if you value your life!"Syndra continued before she followed Laughing Jack, shouting after him but he only moved faster.
She really fucked up now.
When Syndra finally reached her room she got a last glimpse at the demonic clown before the trap of his wooden box closed shut. She rushed to the box and opened it only to find darkness, as if inside the box was a never ending abyss. She called after her friend again and again but with no success.
Suddenly an idea crossed her mind.
"He is taller then me, and he fits in, so why not me?"Syndra mumbled as she placed the box down. She slowly slid on feet in and she almost fell in if not for a nice piece of furniture. Slowly she slid her second foot in and started to gracefully float downwards into the darkness.
She finally hit the ground or a hard surface which gave her the time to study her surroundings. Complete darkness, she could barely see her own hands and even when her eyes were glowing purple the darkness was still way more powerful. She took a random direction and advanced forward when suddenly some lights lit up making her gasp.
They were the lights from a carnival's entrance, their old light barely lighting the entrance and the sign:
'Laughing Jack's Carnival!'
She gulped and said:
"Well...this is creepy...Alright Syndra, you can do this..."
