Masky's POV:
I watched as Levi fell down, the stairs, hitting his head on his way. I casually followed after him, opting to walk rather than take the hard way. I was pleased to see that he had not succumb to the sickness, I was slightly worried, considering I had left him locked in the basement for a full twenty-hours. When I had found the basement door open, but no Levi, for a moment I feared he had ran in to the woods again, till I heard him moving around upstairs. Seeing my bat missing in my room alerted me that he might be armed, so I was prepared when he attacked. I had expected him to put up a fight, but I was also confident that I could subdue him easily. I had not meant for him to end up getting a concussion down the stairs, but if that was how I could get him unarmed and restrained then so be it. The Slender Sickness should be getting unbearable, right about now.
I watched him closely as I approached his fallen form. Seeing him struggle to stand up after taking such a fall. He still had too much fight in him. However, the girl had done her job he knew what I was now. He knew to fear me now. I could probably kill him now, and these foreign feeling in my chest would die with him. I smiled, behind my mask, as I pulled my knife from my back pocket.
I nudged him with my foot, to get him on his back, and straddle his stomach trapping his arms with my knees. He began to struggle again, moving his head side to side, trying to wiggle free, even though he knew it was useless. "I will make it quick," I mumbled. It was the least I could do, I would make it quick for us both. This game I would end it now. I placed the knife at his throat.
"N-no! Please, don't." He begged, sobbing, realizing what I was going to do.
"It will only hurt for a moment." I promised, running my free hand in his blonde hair. 'Why am I comforting him?'
"Why-Why do this?" he cried out, the fear evident in his voice.
Before I could stop myself, I found myself answering. "You were meant to die, long before this day. I was interrupted last time." I needed to kill him now. He was making me feel strange. Dare I say, human again. I gritted my teeth.
I press the knife into his skin, shushing whatever was going to come out of his mouth. He closed his eyes as most victims did, not wanting to see his death. I sighed removing the knife from his bared throat. I couldn't do it! I still couldn't do it! 'Why?!' I growled, making sure that I took the key from him, and getting off of him quickly, and grabbing a handful of his hair, and dragged him back to the basement, locking it. He had too much fight still in him, and his sickness was not so bad to where he would beg to do anything for those pills.
I ignored his pounding fists on the door, and went to the kitchen stabbing the knife into the table and taking off my mask, putting my heads in my head. "Hoodie, I know your there." I said, knowing my best friend was almost always nearby.
Silently he joined me at the table. "Couldn't do it." He stated.
"What did they do to us in that Facility?" I asked, rubbing my eyes.
"Nothing. You watched the tapes with us to know this." He said.
I rolled my eyes. Levi's pounding on the basement door had ceased. I looked up at Hoodie, who had his mask on his face, and yet I still knew he was studying me. "What?"
"Slendy suggested that you quit trying to kill him and let the sickness do it job." He said.
"I tried that, I can't do that." I growled.
"Perhaps, you are feeling what humans call affection towards him." He suggested, tilting his head.
I stared at Hoodie for a moment. This guy wouldn't know emotion if it bit him. His was the only one of us Proxy's, that stayed detached of showing any kind of expression or emotion. "And you would know this how?" I prompted, lifting an eyebrow.
"I killed a young couple a few days ago. You are acting like the male." He said, simply.
"You just compared me to a victim." I said.
"I don't wish to kill you though." He said, taking a key from his pocket and unlocking the fridge, pulling out a cheesecake slice. Lifting his mask slightly so he could eat it.
I shook my head, with a sigh. "Come on, I need to blow off some steam." I said, grabbing my knife. Hoodie, following close behind.
"Rosewood Park, should have a good variety of prey." Hoodie suggested, mouth full of cheesecake.
Levi's POV:
I sat in the corner of the basement that had a perfect view of the basement door, as well as staying as far away as possible from Alexis's body. My head was killing me, not only from the large bump on it, but the white noise and static was constant now. I had lost track of how long Masky had thrown me back in here, but I was sure it was hours. I could barely remember ho long I have been imprison in this damn cabin. When was the graduation party, the night I was taken. Two days ago? Three days ago? I couldn't remember. "I just want to go home." I said to the empty and lonely room, putting my head on my knees, starring at the door.
I don't remember falling asleep, and I don't remember ever being let out of the basement, I don't remember being fitted with a steel ankle shackle, that was obviously replacing the leather one. I had woken back on my small bed in the main room of the cabin. The white noise and the static were still constant, and it was freaking me out that I could not remember how I ended back up here chain to the bed again. Maybe I wasn't even, in a cabin. Maybe there was no Masky, or Alexis. Maybe I was in a mental facility and I was trapped in illusion of my own mind.
I curled up on my side, trying to just disappear in to the mattress. I wanted to go home. I wanted my music. I wanted Bonnie and Fred, back. I wanted to be told I wasn't losing my mind.
"Looks like its time for you to take a pill." Said the voice, that I hoped was in my head.
I looked up to see Masky standing over me, starring at me through his emotionless mask. "Am I going insane?" I asked.
"As of this moment, I'd say you are very close to either losing your mind, or dying." He answered, in an emotionless voice.
"Let me go home." I tried to demand, but my voice betrayed me, making me sound weak.
"You can never go back. You are too broken…." He said, holding out a pill.
I went to take it from him, but he pulled his hand away. "Do you understand?" He demanded. "You do whatever I say, or I will let you succumb to the sickness just as the body in the basement did."
I nodded my understanding, holding my hand out for the pill. I just wanted to stop the static and white noise, anything to feel sane again. He gave it to me. I swallowed it gratefully, and this time Masky did not have to check my mouth to ensure that I had indeed taken the pill. I opened my mouth up for him, showing him that I had indeed swallowed.
He nodded his head with a satisfying grunt. "Good boy." And walked to go sit in the kitchen.
I watched him, and he watched me. Neither of us talking, or moving. At some point I grabbed the battered old teddy bear that seemed to always be waiting for me on the bed, and hugged it close.
As if the universe was unhappy with the uncomfortable silence that lingered in the cabin around us the door slammed open, causing me to jump. Masky, just turned his head to see who had barged into his home.
"I will not tell you again to shut the hell up." Growled and angry voice, the owner of said voice marching into the cabin, He was a tall guy, looked a close to my age, paper white skin, and pitch black shaggy-like hair, wearing plain jeans, and a white hoodie. To me he seemed like an angry emo. He was follow by an equally tall, black and white, creepy clown.
"But Jeffy, you would love the carnival." The creepy looking clown said, getting up into angry guys space, who seemed to growl angrily at the invasion.
I just laid there, not moving, or breathing, especially, when I noticed angry emo, was dragging a body by its leg behind him. I though I could still see the person breathing, so that meant whoever they had kidnapped was only unconscious.
Pushing creepy clown, away, with enough force to force him out of the cabin, angry emo, slammed the door in his face. Seeming pleased with himself he, dragged his poor victim toward the basement, carelessly, letting them fall down the stairs, slamming that door, much like the front door, and locking it. He turned to Masky, who was still just watching. "My kill.! You don't get to take this one, this time!" He growled.
"You could knock, you know." Masky sighed.
I jumped again when the creepy clown appeared in the room in the form of black smoke. This was just all so crazy. I really hoped I was crazy, then all of this would all make sense and I at least had a chance of waking up from all of this.
"Masky, Masky, you know Jeffery is not capable of such things, his beauty hinders such actions." The creepy clown laughed.
From my corner of the room, a the clowns words, I examined the angry guy. His face would have been okay if it wasn't for the deep scars that carved his mouth into a forever smile, and the fact he had no eye lids. Seriously what happened to the guy.
"Why, the hell should I knock anyway? We all use this cabin." Angry emo; Jeffery, growled out, clearly annoyed with the clown.
Masky, simply pointed in my direction much to my discomfort at having the attention to now three urban legend killers. I gulped, as I tried to will myself to turn invisible.
"OOOoooooo!" Creepy clown, said, jumping up in down, much in the way a child would when happy, clapping his hands. "So its true!"
Then as if my mind wasn't shell shocked enough these past few days, he reached for me, his black and white sleeved arms and clawed hands, stretching all the way to my side of the room and pulled me from the bed, toward him. Laughing he ignored my struggles to get out of his grip, till I was positioned to standing in front of him, my mouth gaping open in a silent scream, and shock. 'Did that….Really, just happed?!'
"You still haven't killed him yet?!" Jeffery growled. "What the hell is wrong with you? You need someone to hold your hand and walk you through it."
"Hahahahahah!" Creepy clown was laughing, at my expression still. "Oh, Jeffy, I think he's cute! Let's me and you get a pet, too! It will bring us closer together!" The creepy clown said, squeezing me in a hug.
"Shut up, L. J.. No one wants to be near your candy ass." Jeff snapped.
"Jeffy, you say the sweetest things." Gushed the clown; L. J.. Switching from holding me in a hug, much to my relief, to putting his arms around Jeff, who punch him upside the jaw, and getting away from him.
"Is there anything else you needed beside storing your prey for later entertainment." Masky asked, irritation creeping in his voice.
"Slendy wants you to hurry up and do whatever the hell your going to do with him." Jeff, said, stalking to the front door. "The Operator is coming for a visit, before he goes back, doing whatever the hell it is he does."
Before the L. J. followed after; what seem to me anyway, his main source of entertainment, he pinch my cheeks, like one would do a small child. "I'll bring candy, next time Levi. Lots and lots of candy! Hahahah!"
Masky closed the door behind them, and then came to stand in front of me. Tilting his head to the side, he waved his hand in front of my still gaping mouth. "Levi?…." He moved his head to the other side, one of his hands coming to rub the back of his neck.
"His arms stretched…." I said, slowly.
"Yes….." He said, confirming the image my brain was replaying over and over again.
"Impossible….." I mumbled, eyes still wide.
"No. We are all monsters. Laughing Jack, is an imagination. He can do a lot more than stretch his arms." Masky said, hands on my shoulders, and directing me back to my small bed in the corner, after seeing I was still struggling to accept this as reality.
I looked up at him, when he pushed me to sit down. "Your not…." I stopped when he tilted his head again. "Your human." I said, remembering that he was at the party, where he had abducted me.
"Not anymore, I'm not." He said. "Jeff and Slendy are right." He sighed.
"Right about what?" I asked.
"Tomorrow, we will start the game. You will remember, or you will die." He said, leaving me alone.
