AN~I don't own any of the characters except for Amelia/Pandora. Also, I'm going with the fact that Tim/Masky has brown eyes like he does in the actual MH youtube series. I have this series over on Deviantart as well, so some of the characters belong to people over there as well. All new credit will be added at the end of each Chapter, previous credit will be posted at the top and bottom.

I'm not sure when, but at some point I must have fallen a sleep. For the first time in a very long time I didn't have a nightmare, or any kind of dream really. I kinda just was left happy in a dark space surrounded in a familiar and safe warmth. When I did finally wake up, my face was against Tim's chest, slowly moving up and down with the rhythm of his breathing. I looked up at him, his mask was tipped up so it rested on top of his head rather than over his face.

"Hey," He spoke softly as his hand cupped my cheek, skin to skin. He must have taken my mask off at some point too. I smiled up at him still kinda dazed at where I was until my memories flood back.

"S-so I'm not dreaming all of this," I mumbled tiredly into his chest.

"Nope," He said as he kissed my forehead. "You're a proxy to the one and only Slenderman...well, slenderman has his brothers but they're, umm, quite different." He trailed off.

"Wait, there's more of him?" I asked as I leaned back so I could look up to him. He nodded.

"Well, other slender creatures," He shrugged. I nod as glanced around.

"How long have I been a sleep?" I asked as I flex a bit and curl back into his warmth.

"For a while now. You do need to get up, Slenderman will be slowly getting impatient if you don't start on your mission soon," He said not sounding too excited about me going on a mission. I smiled trying to be hopeful.

"It won't be too bad right?" I asked. "I mean, even if worse comes to worse I got Pandora and SK seems pretty badass and able to kick ass, too."

"Yeah, but the war is raging on, and most of the missions lately have been going round and round that. He's starting to send out proxies to either work as spies, and fighters to push back their attempts. It's not going to be long before he rounds us up and try to go head on head with Zalgo and his monsters," Tim sounded unnerved by this. I swallowed the growing lump.

"It's either doing this and able to be together, or being trapped alone in the human world," I spoke quietly staring down at the collar of his shirt. Then I glanced up to him, "I'd take my chances with having to fight monsters than never seeing you again. It was beyond any reasonable torture to be left alone in that hell, I'm glad I missed my pill that day. Pandora kinda saved me from being alone."

"Then I kinda have to thank her," He said as he looked away from me, I could see the storm raging on behind his eyes. "I hated leaving you. I was going to honestly keep in touch with you...but things...they, just...ugh," He trailed off. "Things got complicated, and I couldn't even keep a promise with you."

"It's alright," I said. Slowly my hand snaked up and tilted his head so he would look at me. I smiled understandingly. "I understand why now. I'm not mad. At that time I felt abandon, yeah, but now I do honestly understand what happened. It was out of your control at that point."

"You way too understanding," He joked. I rolled my eyes. "You should be upset with me, or yell at me or do something like that."

"Life is too short for that, and I've let go of those negative emotions...Er, I've redirected them," I spoke the truth. "I should go meet up with him, I need to start my mission, so I can get back to you." He nodded. I stood up and slid my mask down over my face. I turned but he grabbed the back of my hoodie.

"Give me a moment, I want to see where he marked you," Masky said as he lifted my hoodie up a bit. His fingertip traces a circle at the small of my back then an x over it. "The small of your back, that's where you and Pandora must be connected. He made sure to get both you and her marked." He released my hoodie and stood up.

"Does everyone have one?" I asked as we started to walk.

"The ones that can go on missions, children like Sally and Tori and Alexis don't have one. They might get one eventually, if Slender decides he needs them to actually go on missions. But he's weary about sending the really young ones like them," He said.

"Were's your mark?" I asked as I glanced over at him as my hand rested on the door knob.

"Here," He said as he pulled up his shirt. The mark was over his heart.

"Does it mean something, the location of where the mark is?" I asked. He nodded.

"My emotions drive me, so he marked those. He can alter my emotions here and there, he doesn't do it often but he has the capability as well as feel what I'm feeling," He explained then let go of his shirt letting it cover his chest again, he pushed his mask down so it covered his face. I nodded, we left the room and walked hand in hand down the hall till we got to the office that had the words Slenderman written on it. SK was leaned against the wall and looked intrigued at the door.

"Someone's in there," Sk nodded towards the door when we got close enough. I could hear a slight heartbeat like thump right underneath the the commotion of something getting thrown at the ground.

"Uh-oh," I mouthed. Sk pushed herself off the wall and walked over to the door. "Come on partner, lets start this thing."

I swallowed and nodded, I glanced Tim, "I'll be back before you know it."

"I hope so. I love you Amelia," He spoke as he quickly hugged me.

"L-love you too," I stammered. "Pandora, wake up." I felt the now familiar push as she took control of the body. She did her normal stretch and twist then looked at Tim with a smirk. "I'll protect her, don't worry your little head about anything." He nodded, then Pandora followed SK into the office. Instantly both Pandora and Sk flinched back with quick motion. I was grateful that I didn't have to worry about physical pain as something flew through my bottom half. Still a small yelp slipped my lips in surprise. I quickly floated upwards and out of the range of the raged creature.

"They...ambushed usss," The creature roared, it sounded tired as if it had traveled long distances with no sleep or rest. It was just about as tall as Slenderman. It wore a red robe but bleached white bones poked out here and there, and I could even see where his ribs were, blonde hair stuck out around its face but whipped back and forth with his movements, his mouth and eyes had a white glow. Its body whipped around and it stared at Pandora and SK with a slight disgust then looked back at Slenderman. "Yyyoouu me! You sent...us on that...request...And they took her!"

'I know, and I'm sorry. I'm sending two of my stronger proxies after her. But please calm yourself, my office isn't the one that did this to you,' Slenderman's voice rung through the room, or it felt like it. I know that the voice was only sounded through the minds of everyone in the room, not actually being a physical voice. I glided against the wall and back down so I was in between SK and Pandora.

The creature let out an angered roar and pushed a chair over in rage. "Humans...they're so weak...and fragile...How are only two of them..going to save Insomniac...when I couldn't?"

'They're not humans.' Slenderman said as he crossed his arms. His black tendrils flicked back and forth behind him, like a cat's tail when annoyed. 'I know how you feel about humans. But my proxies have given up the titles of being human; And if you're around them long enough, you'll know there is just about nothing human left inside of them. They still have human qualities but they are no longer considered humans.' Slowly I wrapped my arms around my chest. It still felt weird every time I heard that; that I'm no longer considered human.

The creature seemed to slightly calm down, the heartbeat kinda pounding softened and I realized that the edges of the creature seemed hazy. Its movements were slow as it swayed back and forth. "Still...they're close...enough.." It trailed off.

'It's alright, we'll get her back I swear to it. Miss SK and Miss Pandora as well as Amelia, will be sent to rescue young Insomniac. Also, girls this is Sleepwalker, a fellow guardian of the realms. They were running an errand for me since I was busy with other matters, and they were attacked by a couple of Zalgo's mindless minions. Now, it's the three of you girls mission to rescue her from the hellish prison she's being held in.' Slenderman informed us.

"Okay, sounds good. But one thing smartie, where's she being held at?" Sk asked as she crossed her arms. She glanced between the two guardians. Slenderman glanced from SK to Sleepwalker.

"I...don't remember...exactly where it...had been..." Sleepwalker glanced between SK and Slenderman.

"Why don't you do that thing? Get inside of Sleepwalker's mind, and look over its memories. You've done it before with others," Pandora offered. She looked annoyed that they he hadn't done that from the start.

'I didn't want to intrude on someone's mind.'

"You didn't stop from doing it to me," Pandora crossed her arms sourly.

'Yes, but that's different. You had been one of my proxies and wasn't sharing important info,' Slenderman defended himself. 'Would you mind if I did that to you?'

"Ifff...you think that'll...help save Inso," Sleepwalker murmured. Slenderman reached his arms up, and similar to Jack his arms extended and he placed his hands on either side Sleepwalker's head. Sleepwalker shuddered under Slenderman's touch.

'What's he doing?' I asked quietly to Pandora.

"He can enter minds of others and see what they know, have felt, anything they've experienced ever in their life time," Pandora said softly as not to interrupt Slenderman and Sleepwalker's mental link. It's over a lot sooner than I had thought it would take; Slenderman's hands moved back to his sides.

'She's still alive, they're holding her, hoping to use her as bait to lure you in. I'm sending these proxies to get her back. They shouldn't take too long, right girls?' He glanced our way.

'Yes, sir!' I chirped. The other two just shrugged like it was no big deal. I imagined if Slenderman did have eyes he would have rolled them.

'Alright girls,' He spoke then waved his hand and an opening appeared. 'Go get Insomniac back immediately. As well as kill off the minion that is holding her.'

"Alrighty boss," SK said as she leaped forward and into the portal. Pandora sighed, I quickly grasp the mental thread that held me to my body as she fled forward into the portal. For a moment in time we were held in a dark space of emptiness, then I heard the soft wet smack of Pandora's feet as they hit the ground. The three of us were on a cliff edge, well the two of them were while I floated off the edge. For a second I thought I would fall, then it hit me that I was floating, so it didn't matter. It was night, and the cliff's edges blended into the empty abyss of the impending doom on the edge.

"Oh, this looks like it'll be fun," SK said sarcastically as she started up the path. Pandora followed quietly, obviously not really liking the fact that she had to follow rather than lead.

'I-I'll go s-scope out the way," I said hoping to be somewhat helpful. Without waiting for an answer I started ahead, and whipped around a corner and scoped out the place. Quickly I found a cave opening, even though I know I was only a ghost in this form I still tried to stay as quiet as possible as I entered the cave. A whimpering came from the back of the cave, slowly I edged forward. I could see a silhouette of a girl, light splayed out between her arms. She had something clutched between her arms and chest. The light shook with her whimpers. I turn and quickly flew out of the cave and the way I came.

'I found her!' I practically yelled.

"Sweet, lead us!" SK said as her hand gripped at her katana's handle.

"I'm right behind you two," Pandora said with a smirk as she grabbed her two blades. With that I race back towards the cave, but this time there was a darker feel to the cave.

'Wait you, guys!' I yelled as I saw the dark hazy mist cover the entrance. Before my words dawned on the two they ran through the dark mist. Something sucked me back into my own body, and the air that had been in my lungs had been pushed out as my body shivered as my eyesight dims and diminished. I felt the cold as something seemed to smother me, even while I whipped my arms widely around me.

"Pandora! SK!" I screamed as I was absorbed into a nightmarish orb.
