Masky's POV

I couldn't help being pleased that the plan went so smoothly, that now, I had Levi slung over my shoulder, as Slenderman, led us through the woods, to his new home for awhile. Later, if I decided that I did not want to kill him, or break his mind, I would move him to the Mansion with the rest of us. It would not due to share him, if in the end, Levi proved boring after a couple of days. I had lost my temper when he refused to follow Ben's instructions, the other night. Had he looked out his window, he would have avoided, being greeted to our woods, by Smile Dog and Rake. If he had opened his window, he would have found a note, I would have introduced myself in the note and asked for a meeting, like most humans seemed to prefer to do, and let him make a choice, though of course it wouldn't have mattered what he chose in the end. He would have still ended up in there woods, with me, where I would determine if his heart would continue to beat.

"He smells nice." Smile Dog hummed.

I looked over my shoulder to see him sniffing at Levi's hair. Rake sniffed with him. "Yeah, and what does he smell like?" I asked curious.

"Fear." Smile Dog said, his smile getting wider.

"Terror..."Rake mumbled.

I felt my lips twitch to a smirk. Yes, I could feel Levi's heart beating frantically, even though he was unconscious. He groaned against my back, and his body tensed then after a moment relaxed. Slender looked backed briefly, not at me, but at Levi, before continuing onward till we reached a path that led to nowhere. I almost forgot, even unconscious he would still be affected by the Slender Sickness. I would need to take care of that soon, or he really would die, or go insane.

Slenderman motioned toward the cabin, that I would be using to house Levi. It was made from brick and wood, it was small, with a second floor, and basement. I had already been in the cabin and had prepared for his arrival. The cabin was in the middle of the woods, far from Slender Mansion. As for the pathway that led to the front door, it led to no where, but to the back of the cabin, just a precaution should Levi try and run from me. Even if he did, there was no way for him to reach other humans. This was his new home, these woods, till he died. I would be spending a lot of time here with Levi.

Before I could open the front door, Sally decided to walk out of the entrance. "Slendy!" She jumped into Slenders arms and hugged him as most children would a father. Slender held her with one arm.

"What were you doing Sally?" I grouched, peeved that sanctum of my prey had been disturbed, before I could even settle him in.

"I wanted to give him a gift, Masky." She smiled.

Slender patted her head, before turning to Hoodie, who handed me a pill bottle, that contained pills that would help keep the Slender Sickness away.

I nodded my thanks and watched as Rake, Slenderman, and Sally disappeared. Smile Dog ran off into the woods, muttering about needing to make sure the word was spreading. Hoodie, started to leave, but stopped to look back, asking a silent question.

"I can handle it from here." I assured him.

He nodded and jogged away, heading back to Slender Mansion.

I slammed the door shut with my foot, careful not to hit Levi's head with it.

The first floor of the cabin was simple, kitchen, living area, bathroom, staircase, door to the basement, and fireplace. The kitchen was not well stocked, with food, dishes, cookware, or silverware, the back door and window located in that area were bolted shut The kitchen table I had bolted down and instead of chairs, there were stools to sit on, and they too, were bolted down as well. Wouldn't want to give Levi any potential weapons. In the living, I had a small bed tucked in the corner of the room, furthest from the door and the little hallway. Other than that, the only other furniture that was in the living area was a couch and lazy-boy chair, both were bolted to the floor, and facing the fireplace. The bathroom was located just beside the little hallway, and unlocked for easy axis. The basement door was at the end of the little hallway, pass the bathroom, of course that door was locked. There was a staircase that lead to the second floor, which held several rooms, including a room which I would be occupying for a while.

I dumped Levi, on his little bed in the living area, and reached under the bed, where I had bolted a long thick chain to the floor, and cuffed a thick leather shackle on one of his ankles. I had not forgotten the Levi, would not remember me, but I planned on remedying that soon, because of that I opted to not use a steel shackle. It was the closest I could come to showing….some type of emotion, towards my prey. My eyes drifted to Sally's gift to him; a battered teddy bear with one button eye. I guess I could let him keep it. Levi grimaced and groaned in pain in his sleep. 'Right, the Slender Sickness...' I uncapped the bottle and took one out.

I lightly slapped the side of his face. I didn't expect him to fully come around, I had hit him harder than necessary with the bat, but just enough to swallow the pill, that would take away the Slender Sickness. His eyes, cracked open, not really focusing on anything. "Hey..." I said, grabbing his jaw. He groaned in pain again. "Open your mouth..." I instructed. His eyes focused a little bit, but he closed them again as the sickness, hit him once again. However, he clamped his mouth shut and shook his head, either from the pain in he was experiencing, or to my demand, I did not care. I had no time to play this ridiculous cycle humans seemed to enjoy going through, he would take this pill, if I had to shove it down his throat, then so be it. I squeezed the sides of his jaw, immediately one of his hands grabbed at my wrists, as shouts of pain escaped him. I dropped the pill in, placing my hand over his mouth, relinquishing my grip on his jaw, so he would not spit it out. "Swallow!" I growled out. This was getting annoyingly tedious now. He struggled a bit more, until he finally swallowed.

I let him go, standing and watched as he curled in on himself, hands going to his head, and screamed from the slight pain of the concussion and Slender Sickness. I walked away and up the stairs, letting him ride out his pains, till the pill took affect, which would be long. He would quiet down then and slip back to sleep. He would be more clear headed in the morning, and sober. Then the real game would begin. I slammed the door to my room closed, closing out his painful little cries.

Levi's POV

I did not want to wake up. I cracked an eye open, then slammed it closed. Nope. Not gonna open my eyes, my head was killing me, and my body was sore. My head and legs especially were singing the song of pain this moring. 'What happened last night? Did I run a marathon last night or something?' I rubbed my throbbing head. No more drinking. Ever. Slowly, I opened my eyes, so I wasn't onslaught by the headache coursing through my head, called hangover. Running, I knew I had been running, from something in the woods. I jumped up, and regretted the sudden movement. But still, I was chased by a demon dog and another demon creature. Then….I thought back, but all I could remember was a feminine looking Mask.

I looked around, and was very confused. Where was I? A cabin obviously, but how did I get here? I stood, but stopped at the sound of rattling and looked down. What! The! Flippin'! Hell! I stared wide eyed at my right ankle. A rock settled in my stomach. "No...Nononononononononnonononon…." I chanted over and over, grabbing the steel links and leather cuff, trying to rip them off me. I could already feel myself starting to hyperventilate.

What was going on?!

This was prank! It had to be! Or I was still sleeping.

I stopped, trying to calm myself down, and think rationally. I could get out of this I just needed to think clearly. I rubbed my head, my hand finding a large bump. So, lat night was obviously not a dream. That meant I was really chased by demons. That meant the mask wearing person was real too. I had to get out of here! I started pulling and yanking with renew determination. I watched television, I seen news stories, I knew what happened to people in these types of situations, I did not want to be one of those people. I searched for the other end of the chain, finding it under my bed, pulling, and praying the bolts holding it down would give.

In the end after I don't know how long of me attempting to somehow develop super human strength, and free myself, I found myself curled up on the bed, hugging a teddy bear that had seen better days. Maybe it was left here by the last victim. They must have been a lot younger than me if they were kidnapped with their teddy bear. 'No, Levi. Don't think that" I chided myself away from the horrible thought. I took a deep stabilizing breath and exhaled. I needed to test how far I could walk. I eyed to door closest to me. There was nothing really in the part of the cabin I in, but maybe that room would have something that could help me get loose.

It was a bathroom. A small sink and tub and toilet crammed into the little room. I mean seriously, this room was cramped. I could reach it with a lot of slack on my chain. Next I tried the hallway next to the bathroom. I could enter the hallway, but my reach stopped at the bottom of the stairs, that led upstairs, keeping me from climbing them, and also from investigating where the door at the end of the hallway led to. Though I knew it was impossible, I tried to reach the kitchen which was just pass the hallway, I could even set foot in it. Lastly, I tried the front door. I had no trouble getting to it, in fact, I had even more slack on my chain, than I did in the bathroom. But as luck would have it, whoever my kidnapper was, was not dumb enough to leave this door unlocked. Walking, back to the bed, it didn't slip my notice that everything seemed bolted to the floor. I looked out the window by my bed. Wherever I was, this morning looked as gloomy as I was feeling. Still with nothing left to do I continued trying to free my ankle. I did not want to be here to meet my kidnapper. I started slamming my ankle on to the bed frame. Being sure that the lock that connected the cuff and the chain together would land each on the frame each time, if I could somehow break that lock I could run away and worry about the cuff when I reach somewhere safe. My ankle was starting to hurt after a couple of minutes, but I didn't stop.

"Stop it!"

I jumped at the sudden angry and annoyed sounding voice that echoed throughout the room, slamming my back against the wall. I stared wide eyed at the dude standing in front of me, he was wearing a feminine looking mask. He stood with his arms crossed just by the hallway. Looking closely at his clothes I realized, exactly who he was. "Tim?"

He scoffed. "When I was human, sure. My name is Masky." Was the reply.

What? When he was human? "Tim, let me go. I won't tell anyone. I promise!" I said.

Even though I couldn't see his eyes, I got the feeling he was rolling his eyes. "Yeah, like I haven't heard that before. Your not going anywhere. If I catch you messing with your chain again, I'll cut your foot off." He walked into the kitchen.

"Why, Tim?" I asked. He seemed like an okay guy at the party.

"Masky." He corrected me, rummaging through a cabinet. Before feeling a plastic cup full of water, and stalking toward me.

I pressed myself up against the wall, even though I couldn't get any further away.

"Here." He held out a pill and the cup of water to me.

Cautiously, I took both items from him. What was he going to make me take. I really didn't want to chance anything right now, like being roofied, or poisoned slowly. My mind was coming up with all sorts of possible things swallowing this pill would do to me.

"Swallow it. I will know if you don't." He warned.

Taking a calming breath I decided that if I didn't willingly take it, he would somehow force me too. I tossed the pill in my mouth and gulped it down with the water. As soon as I swallowed, Tim, no Masky, grabbed my jaw, forcing my mouth to stay open in his grip. I grabbed at his wrists trying to make him let go, as he stuck his fingers in my mouth, making sure I had really swallowed the pill.

"Good." He said, taking the cup away. He rinsed the cup and placed it back into the cabinet he got it from. "I would conserve my energy if I were you." He said going to the front door. "You got a long night tonight." With that he left.

I sat there for a few moments. What was I suppose to do? I tried to remember what I had heard on a television show to do, when in this type of situation. I was suppose to have him see me as a person. I needed to tell him little bits about myself, so that he would not feel obligated to not kill me, or whatever he kidnapped for.

I stared at the kitchen, feeling my stomach start to ache from hunger. I wanted breakfast, but was unable to even step foot in it. Just looking at the kitchen and knowing I could not even reach food, was torture in itself. I hadn't eaten much last night, mostly helping myself to the drinks at the party. Hat was obviously a poor moment of judgment on my part. I laid on the bed and curled in on myself, staring at the battered teddy bear. There was nothing left for me to do, except wait for Masky to return. I don't know what I would prefer, Masky not returning, or being starved. 'I wish I had my headphones with me right now.'
