Masky's POV:

I was pacing, the kitchen of the Slender Mansion. What was I going to do? I needed to create a game that would jog Levi's memory and not kill him immediately like most prey. Hoodie, Slendy, and Toby were sitting at the counter watching me pacing back and forth. Seriously, I could not figure out what was so special about Levi. When we were trapped in that facility, my desire to kill him had slowly disappeared the longer I was with him. Now, that he was here, I still couldn't kill him, I only found him annoying, and irritating. It was difficult to keep seeing him as prey.

"Yow! Watch it!" E. J. shouted in surprise, when I almost barreled into him, causing him to send his kidney that he was snacking on, flying towards Hoodie. Hoodie, caught it of course and was immediately grossed out, and instead of holding it, he tossed it into Toby's waffles.

"H-hey! My w-w-waffles!" Toby, cried pushing away the ruin meal frowning.

"Sorry, E. J." I said, resuming my pacing.

"That's okay." E. J. said, taking the discarded fork and plate of waffles, stabbing the syrup covered kidney with the fork and taking a bite. "Mmmmm, this is good, I see why you like waffles now, Toby." He said, rubbing the kidney in the syrup again.

"Ew. T-t-t-hat is not h-how you eat w-waffles." Toby said, looking like the very act was a crime.

Slendy, placed another plate in front of Toby, to hush him up again.

Hoodie made a noise that signified that the very sight was disgusting to him, as he placed himself in my path, causing me to stop pacing again. "What game will you choose?" He asked, knowing exactly what I was pacing for.

"I don't know…." I mumbled, opting to walk around him.

"Let me hunt him." E. J. offered, still chewing on the kidney covered in syrup.

"Your just after his kidney." BEN said, jumping in the conversation, walking into the room.

"He can live without one kidney." E. J. defended.

Slendy got up making a groaning sound and walked out of the room, clearly deciding to ignore all of us.

"What about the Rake?" E. J. suggested.

"The goal is to jog his memory, so he will remember Masky and the Experimental Facility. Not give him more nightmare-ish trauma." BEN said, flipping open his 3DS. "How about I play with him. I can warp his reality that will resemble your first experience. It will be harmless, except that he might lose track of time and his mental health might decline." He suggested, grinning, happily as he began a pokemon battle. "He won't even have to be moved from the cabin."

"It can't be that simple either." I growled.

"Oh, for fuck sake's! Are you still on about the pest in the cabin?" Jeff, asked angrily, as he stalked in.

"Hey, Masky!, Hey, Masky! Hey, Masky! Hey, Masky!"Tobi, called, waving his arms around erratically, fork in hand.

I tilted my head, in his direction, with a patient look. "Yes, Toby." I acknowledged.

"Let me hunt him!" he offered, with a big grin.

"No, Toby." I said. My eyes going back to BEN. I like his idea better.

"Masky." Hoodie, said tapping my shoulder. Turning around I looked to where he was pointing.

Slendy stood in the doorway with his arms crossed, as he held a struggling Jeff in his tentacles. "Let go of me Slenderdic-" Jeff cursed, but unable to finish as a tentacle wrapped around his neck, choking him slightly. "Slenderman! I said Slenderman!" He choked out.

Slendy released him, with a satisfying nod, dropping a still angry looking Jeff on the floor at my feet, before taking a seat and the counter again.

"What did you do this time?" E.J. asked.

"Nothing!" Jeff said with a huff picking himself up.

L. J.'s arm stretched into the room, slapping him on the back of the head. "He tried to enter the cabin and kill the cutey." L. J. said, his body catching up with his arm. "Then Slendy came and grabbed him by the ear. Ha,ha,ha!" He laughed, paying no heed to the death glare Jeff was sending his way.

"Jeff…." I threatened, Hoodie, holding me back, from throttling the forever smiling bastard.

"He's corrupting your judgment. The fact that you haven't killed him or his family yet, are proof of that." Jeff growled.

"Its called feelings Jeffery," L. J. snickered, pinching the Jeff's scarred cheek, while shoving a lollipop in his mouth.

"I'm gonna make you go to sleep." Jeff grouched annoyingly to the clown, spitting out the candy. "And I hate candy!"

I sighed and shook my head. "I can handle him, just fine. There is nothing wrong with my judgment."

We were all silenced by the sound of tapping, which happened to be Slendy, watching us with mild impatience. Seeing he had our attention, he pointed to his watch.

"The Operator, is coming today." Hoodie said.

"Looks like your going to be late returning." E. J. said. Licking the blood from his kidney and then rubbing it across the plate to gather the syrup off the plate.

Toby who had long since refilled his plate with waffle nodded his head in agreement, with his mouth full.

"Where's Sally, Puppeteer, and Painter at?" BEN said.

The room with silent.

"This might not good." Hoodie mumbled.

"HA, HA, HA, ha, ha, ha….." L. J. started rolling on the floor, finding our realization funny.

"Let the games begin." Jeff smiled.

"Shut up Jeff." I said, walking pasted him. Walking right into the Operator. 'Maybe he'll be still be alive when I get back.' I thought as I noticed I would not be able to miss the meeting with our guest.

Levi's POV:

I sat huddled on my bed, hugging the battered teddy bear for comfort, it was the only thing I had that was familiar and wasn't a terrifying killer. Masky was long gone, he left sometime when I had drifted to sleep. I was beginning to wander if this area of woods only had two types of the time of day; nighttime and spooky thick fog daytime, with little sun. It was really depressing to look out the window, by the bed. Masky had left a pill near the bed so I could take when I woke up. I was tempted to think that was nice of him, but I still wasn't sure why he was keeping me alive. My eyes moved to the basement door, where the person, that the impossible stretchy armed clown; L. J., and that blood covered and smiley Jeff guy had brought in, was banging on the door, which had woken me up. I had tried to get as close as I could without the metal shackle pulling and biting into my ankle. Whoever they were, they suspected that it was I, who had kidnapped them and refused to talk to me.

This left me all the time in the world to try and come up with a plan that would keep me alive. I didn't know what Masky wanted from me. He had said, he was a monster, but he didn't look like one, but after Alexis had told me what Creepypastas were, I knew he was definitely a murderer. All those criminal show on t. v. had always mentioned, that as long as the criminal kept seeing their victim as another human being worthy of respect, the victims were more than likely be able to stay alive and in some cases be released or escape. I needed to keep Masky seeing me as human, which would help keep me breathing.

The front door, creaked open. I tensed slightly, thinking it was Masky, but the I realized that the person walking through the door was notMasky, it was the little girl, that had landed me in this situation. I think Masky was had called her Sally. She was in a pink dress, and light brown hair, and holding a teddy bear. "Hiya!, I'm Sally. And your Levi, right?" She asked skipping over to me, and squealed, jumping up and down. I hit my head on the wall from flinching, I felt a little embarrassed to be so cautious of a little kid. "Your holding my present! I'm soooo~ happy you like him." She said, pointing to the batter teddy bear in arms.

'So she gave me the bear….As a present.' I looked between the bear and her, feeling only slightly upset my only source of comfort had come from….well….A Creepypasta. However she was still a kid. Upon a closer look I noticed she had blood streaking from her head, like she was hurt there or something. If I was going to stay alive, I needed to treat these Creepypasta's as I would any other person. "Are you okay? Your bleeding." I asked, I couldn't bring myself to move toward her. So I indicated, the spot be pointing to my own head.

She touched her head, where the blood was. "Oh. Are you afraid of blood?" She asked not answering my question.

"No, but…."

"Good!" She interrupted me, a big smile on her face. "Because we all get blood on us, especially when we go out hunting."

"Hunting?" I repeated after her.

"Yes, its how we choose our prey. Your the first one, Masky hasn't killed right away, so you must be special." She grinned.

'They don't see other people as people. They call us prey.' It gave me shivers, at that realization.

"So-so how do you hunt?" I dreaded asking, but she had dodged the question about her head injury, and I did not want to make her upset, God only knew what would happen then.

"I don't hunt. I play. But sometimes, there are some who don't want to play, and that makes me upset." She smiled, that sweet innocent smile at me. "Would you like to play with me?"

"I, uh…..?" I wasn't sure I trusted her.
"We can have a tea party, and I'll be the mommy, you'll be the daddy, and our bears can be our kids." She said, clapping her hands together.

'Um, uh-….the fridge and cabinets are all locked." I said, hoping that, that bit of info would save me from having to play with her, without getting her upset. I really didn't want to know how she reacted to someone who didn't want to play games with her.

"Silly," She giggled "Its a pretend tea party." She grabbed for the battered teddy bear in my arms, and began placing them in a sitting position on the floor.

"What if Masky comes back?" I tried one more time to get out of this.

"Then he can be the uncle."She grinned. "This is Mr. D." She said, waving her teddy bears arms. "What's your called?"

'Shit!, I don't make a habit naming toys!' "I – uh, Freddy!" I blurted, hurriedly, then face-palmed at having named a teddy bear after one of my dead friends. I can almost hear his laughter from the dead.

"Hi, Freddy. I'm Mr. D. Its nice to meet you." She, said, lowering her voice how she envisioned he bear would sound, could it talk. "Do you like pizza? I like pizza."

"Sally."

I look back to the door at the new voice. Another guy around my age stood there, He wore a black coat and pants, black gloves, and gray beanie hat, his skin was very pale and he had golden eyes, and was his mouth gold, too?

"Puppeteer! You're just in time for the tea party." Sally rejoiced.

"Masky will not like you here. Come on, Painter wanted to paint another picture of you. This time as a princess of your choice."

No!" She huffed. "Me and Levi are going to have a tea party."

"Hmm…." He moved his inhuman golden eyes to me, putting his hands out slightly, like he was holding something invisible. "So your Levi…."

At his words, golden thin strings seemed to manifest from his fingertips, slinking their way to me and attaching themselves to me. Once all connected, my body began moving on its own, the strings tugging me forward like a puppet. I was moving with each slight movement his fingers made, like he was doing this. No, that's wrong he was doing this. I tried so hard not to show my panic, as I got closer to him. He was smirking at me in a knowing manner.

"Delicious…." He mumbled when my body stopped to a halt in front of him. "No wonder Masky likes him…."

'I'm standing right here, asshole!' I silently grouched. I was getting tired of hearing these people talk about me like I wasn't even here.

"His anxiety in quite delectable….Good height too…." He mused, putting his hand on my jaw, moving my face from side to side, and rotating my arms."

No matter how, much tried I could not move my body.

He smirk grew wider. "How would you like to be my puppet?" He asked, draping an arm across my shoulder.

"No, he's playing with me." Sally said, stomping her foot.

'This is insane. I can't even move my head.' I did not like the fact that the only thing I could move was my eyes.

"He can still play as a puppet, Sally." He nudged my motionless body in the ribs. "What do you say Levi, want to come home with me, and be my new puppet?" He asked.

My head nodded on it own. I was trying my hardest to shake my head no. If this guy took me, I would die. I would be dead.

"Perfect." He smiled. "We'll let Helen paint your portrait then I'll introduce you to your new brothers and sisters. I'm going to make you into the perfect puppet." He said, patting my head.

"All around the mulberry bush,~

The monkey chased the weasel.~

The monkey thought 'twas all in good fun,~

Pop! goes the weasel.~"

"Oh, no. Not him." Sally all but whine. "Come on Mr. D, we'll play with Levi and Freddy later. L. J. might take you again." She said, hugging her bear and disappeared.

Even though I suspected she had some creepy power like the rest, I could still feel my eyes widen. She did not just disappear, she faded away.

Puppeteer, all but groaned, slapping a hand over his eyes in annoyance.

"Hahaha! I brought….CANDY!" L. J. cheered popping into the room.

"Take your poison candy somewhere else clown. Levi's mine now." Puppeteer smirked pulling my still form closer to him.

I really wanted to move. I wanted these golden strings to fall off me, so I could have control back.

"Ooooo, pulling a switch-a-roo on Masky, are we Levi?" L. J. grinned, reaching for the string attached to the top of my head a pulling it in a jerky up and down motion, making my head nod.

'No, no. I rather stay here with Masky. One psycho is enough.' I wanted to say.

"I thought you were meeting with the Operator, like everyone else?" Puppeteer, asked smacking the clowns hands away from his strings.

"I was told to leave. Haha!" The clown laughed.

"Sometimes I think you do that, just to out of the boring stuff." Puppeteer, huffed, lifting an eyebrow.

"Oh, Pinocchio, why would you say such a thing? I am all about work." L. J. said, gleefully, pulling out a lollipop and licking it.

'Was any of this really real? This can't really be real. These people were all weird and creepy. And I thought I knew what weird was. I mean I prided myself with being weird.'

"Levi" A hand waved in front of my face snapping out of my thought. L. J. is holding a small piece of hard candy to my mouth. "Say, awww 3" His hand gripping my jaw open. A big grin on his face.

"Laughing Jack!" The voice I didn't think I would ever be grateful to hear snapped. We all looked to Masky, who stood in the doorway, he pointed his finger toward the clown still holding my jaw open, and still holding the candy just in my mouth. "Don't you dare, feed that to him." He snarled.

Puppeteers strings vanished, causing me to slump slightly, but I regained my balance and started trying to pry the clowns hand off my face. I am sad to say, I was reminded I was weaker than these guys. His arm didn't budge. "Masky, you ditching the meeting, too?" Puppeteer smirked.

"Slender, suggested I leave. Turns out he doesn't trust none of you." Masky growled, stalking forward, and gripping my shoulder in a tight grip. "And rightly so."

I would not say this out loud, but dude, was I relieved to see my masked kidnapper. I breathed out in relief, that I hadn't even realized I was holding.

"Painter is looking for you Puppeteer." Mask informed, kneeling down slightly and grabbing my ankle. I dare not move. I knew I wouldn't be able to make a run for it with these three surrounding me. "You were to bring him new supplies."

"Oh, yeah." The golden eyed Proxy, smirked, snapping his fingers. "I forgot about that." He walked toward the stairs. "I think he said they were in his room here."

"Laughing Jack, Slender wants you back at the meeting." Masky, said hand gripping my elbow this time as he dropped my shackle and stood, his masked face, starring at me.

"Okay, but what are yo-?" Laughing Jack, asked , but was silenced when Masky, tilted his head in his direction.

"Go on, I'll be there shortly." Masky inquired.

The creepy clown, looked between me and Masky before a smile re-emerged on his face and he popped out of the room. We didn't move. I couldn't move. The mask was haunting to look at. I could just feel his eyes burning into mine, even if I couldn't see them. My heart started thumping faster the longer we stood there, just starring, and my face was burning up. Oh, I hope I'm not coming down with something. This was not the ideal situation to get sick. He loosened his grip. 'What is going on here? He knows I could probably make a run for it now, right?' I went to take a step back, and his grip tightened again. "Tim?…." I asked, deciding that for him to continue to see me as an equal and human, was to show him that I seen him as human, too

His hand released me as if I had burned him by the name alone. "Run…." He said, in a monotone voice, devoid of any emotion.

I backed up slightly, my fight or flight instincts sending warning bells to go off in my head. That change in his voice was terrifying. 'Okay, maybe it wasn't a good idea to call him that!'

"Run. Now." He said, pulling a pocket knife from his pocket, voice still monotone, and stalking toward me, with silent menacing movements.

I tripped over my own feet as I chose flight, and attempted to turn for the door. Masky still walking slowly toward me. In a mad scramble to get back to my feet I dashed out the door, not looking back. I thought I heard him say something, but was too busy having a silent anxiety attack.

Masky's POV:

"Let the game begin" I mumbled, as I took my mask off once Levi was out of sight, and turned around to see Puppeteer watching from the stairs, Painter's unopened paints and brushes in hand. I would let Levi have the run of the woods till the meeting was over and if he stayed alive long enough then, I would hand him over to BEN.

"I know you don't want to hear this Masky…." Puppeteer, sighed, coming to stand beside me and look in the direction that Levi had ran in. "But you have got it bad." He started snickering.

I ignored him, already leaving him behind to go back to the mansion. My prey would need a head start. I hope Levi, would be grateful for this, and to Slenderman for suggesting this. I wonder how he will feel, seeing his dead friends again. The thought me smile.
