A/N: This is kinda all over the place, but not like in later chapters so yay!


"So this is the sketch book? Why would this be affected?" Mathew asked taking the black bound book. He opened the book and leafed through it. All of the other countries around him paled. These negatives were violent.

"This is the most troublesome thing that I have ever seen. I knew that the Slender Man stalked his victims attempting to drive them insane, but never like this, then again there is never any evidence left." Mathew said flipping through the blank pages quickly checking for anything unusual.

"Well, how the bloody hell are we supposed to stop him then?" Arthur asked taking the book from Mathew.

"I don't know. Ludwig. Do you know? It was first recorded in your country." Mathew said turning to the country sulking in the corner.

"Hm? No. I don't know how to catch the creature. It has troubled me since it appeared." He said muttering something about being uncomfortable around supernatural objects like the book.

The four Nordics there left. It was bright after leaving Arthur's casting room.

"So that should cover the drawings. What do we do now?" Mathias asked looking at the three smaller countries.

"I think we should go back to the hotel. I know Sve stayed there, but I think that there should be at least two of us there at any one time." Tino said, looking in the direction of the hotel.

"You go on ahead then. I want to check out some of the myths surrounding this Slender creature." Emil said walking to the library.

"I think I will assist England with the spell casting." Lukas said re-entering the room.

"Then I suppose I will discuss the matter with the other countries and see what they have to say." Mathias said leaving Tino alone. The country walked to the car and was taken to the hotel.

Tino got off the lift onto the floor where the rooms were. He had one of the spare keys to Tea's room in his hand and slid the card into the lock. The door clicked and he opened the door. He saw Berwald asleep, with Tea lying against his chest. Tino smiled and walked over to the side of the bed where Berwald was lying. There was just enough space on the bed for Tino to lie next to Berwald. He put his head against Berwald's shoulder. The smaller country closed his eyes and fell asleep listening to the soft breathing of Berwald and Tea.

It seemed like a few minutes later that he was woke by something gasping for air. He opened his eyes in shock of the sound and propped himself onto on arm to look over Berwald. He couldn't make out Tea, just a huge black mass over her…


A/N: Yay another chapter!
