How's it going bros and bras? My name...is VioletDemon! I am back once again to write the next chapter of Slenderman Encounter. So in the last episode, Alicia's past was revealed to show that she couldn't save her best friend who died from committing suicide. So because of that, she was deeply affected from not saving Anri. But aside from that, what's going to happen now my dear friends? Why this awesome chapter of course.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Durarara cast. I only own my outstanding, working-on-not-being-a-Mary Sue OC, Alicia Walker.

Chapter Eight: Need A Hand, Fourth Note, and More Victims

I wanted to go home.

It was getting colder outside and my jacket was doing absolutely NOTHING to keep me warm. Even Shizuo occasionally shivered, which DEFINITELY wasn't a good sign. I had to use all of my will power just to keep moving forward. I don't know why, but I've been spacing out ever since we were lucky enough to escape the clutches of Slenderman (some of us not so lucky.) Worst of it all, I was starting to get sick. I sniffled and sneezed every five seconds. This wasn't good since I never, AND ALICIA MEANS NEVER, gets sick.

"Alicia?"

I looked up to see Shizuo staring at me with those concerned eyes of his. "Are you feeling alright? Your eyes looked bloodshot and you seem to have a cold..."

"Shizu-chan's right." Izaya decided to step into the conversation. "Maybe we should stop for a little while and set up-"

"NO!" I shouted, getting everyone's attention. "Just because I've had a few hacks and sneeze attacks doesn't mean I'm gonna stop and-"

I stopped as I felt a sudden sneeze come up. I sneezed into my elbow and sniffled. Then, my eyes dilated at the sight at it.

It was covered in blood.

"Ali-chan are you alright?"

I quickly wiped the blood snot from my nose and turned around, acting as if nothing happened. "Yeah I'm fine Iza-chan." I noticed his eyebrow raise at the sudden nickname. "Just let's keep-"

"Oh my God!"

We all spun to see Erika standing completely frozen in fear, staring at something in front of her. We ran towards her as Walker attempted to calm her down.

"Erika? Erika what's wrong, what happened?"

She pointed a shaky finger to the direction in front of her and I flashed my flashlight around just to find what she was talking about. Then, I had to resist the urge to throw up.

A severed bloody hand was in the middle of the clearing.

I gasped and took a couple of steps backwards. "Oh my God...do you think it could be?..."

She shook her head, unable to answer, and looked about ready to cry. I wrapped my arms as she attempted to wipe the tears away. "I can't believe this...How could Slenderman be so cruel?"

I shrugged my shoulders and patted her back. "I don't know Erika. Another strange thing about Slendy I guess?"

"Hey guys look! I think I see a tunnel!"

I looked to my right to see a gray tunnel off onto my right. I cocked my head to the side and asked Erika, "Why does this remind me of something?..."

Erika looked to be in deep thought and then, her eyes lit up with sparkles in her eyes. "It reminds me of Slender: The Eight Pages. These seem to be the exact locations of the ones in the game."

I made a face. "Doesn't that seem weird to you?"

She shrugged and we both caught up with the rest of the group-who decided to leave us behind for whatever reason- and stopped once we entered the tunnel. We all flashed our flashlights around until mine landed on something.

"Hey guys! I found a note!"

ALWAYS WATCHES

NO EYES

There was also a drawing of a circle with an 'x' crossed into it. I crushed the paper up and shoved it in my jacket pocket. Shizuo could practically feel the anger radiating off of me and attempted to keep me at bay. "Calm down Alicia."

I turned around so fast that you'd thought I would've broken my neck at the sudden speed. I put all my anger into the glare, but yet it didn't faze him one bit. "Calm down? CALM DOWN? Don't fucking tell me to calm down! I recognize this fucking handwriting anywhere! It's Mikado's God damn it!"

Everyone stared at me with sudden surprise and Masaomi stepped forward. "Wait how did you know that?"

"What? You don't know your own friend's handwriting?" He seemed disappointed for not knowing and slowly backed away. "Slenderman is probably making him write these stupid ass notes! He's fucking toying with us!"

Shizuo looked at me with pity and tried to hug me, but I backed away. "Don't fucking give me that look! I've seen that too many times and it makes me sick! Why don't you-"

I stopped when everyone gawked at me with a hint of fear. I immediately assumed the worst. "Is Slenderman behind me?"

They shook their heads and Tom answered for me. "Uh Alicia...your nose..."

I took out my mirror from my pocket and flashed the light on my face. I gasped as I realized that I was having a serious nosebleed.

"God damn it!"

We looked to see Tom and Togusa stuck in a crayfish net trap, hanging up by the tree. I turned towards Izaya and shouted, "Cut them down!"

He nodded and was about to take out his knife when we heard static. I slowly turned around to see Slenderman only a few meters away, watching us intensely. I shouted as loud as I could. "Go to hell you bastard! Fucking pedophile!"

He soon disappeared and I took a breath of release only to hear another scream. I turned around only to see that Togusa and Tom have disappeared. Everyone was frozen in fear and Shizuo covered his mouth, as if he was about to throw up. Which he did once he hid behind a tree and puked his guts out. I rushed back to Erika and attempted to ask what had happened.

"Erika what happened? Where's Tom-san and Togusa?" She was able to answer and more tears rolled up in her eyes. Oh my gosh, what's the fucking point of asking? "Slenderman..."

She cried out in despair and lied her head on my shoulder. I rubbed little circles on her back as she cried her heart. I looked up to stare at the heavens, suppressing the urge to cry as well. 'Barely half an hour and Slendy has already caught two more victims...God, what kind of person am I that I can't even keep one of my own promises?'
