Disclaimer: I own nothing except Sven and Neb and Dark Kitty.

Ben's Note of Sheer Awesome: You know, should I admit I own Dark Kitty? I did make her up and all, but she's an evil villain that does terrible things. The fact I invented her… not good. Then again, Dark Kitty was based off something of my own subconscious, so only I really know how to write for Dark Kitty. But hey, things happen and we have to live with it. Oh, speaking of things happening, I can confirm Kitty and Neb are cousins. It's creepy how it works out, but that's the way things are.

KCL: Ooo! Candy hearts! Love it! I have a bag sitting right next to me as I write this chapter o' fun. I LOVE THOSE THINGS!

Hello: I don't hate Pickles. I can sound kind of offensive sometimes and I don't really mean to. It's really hard for me to hate people, and I'm sorry if people think I do. So, no, I don't hate Pickles, I love all my reviewers.

Pickles: Hey, apple cider! Thanks! To answer your question, yes, she will. It'll be at the end of the next arc, but I say something else at the bottom. Also, I don't hate you. I'm sorry if I made you think that. I'm typically anti-social and I can't handle social situations how most people can. So if I come off mean, I don't mean to offend you, I just can't handle social situations well. I love all my fans, you included. Sorry if I made you think I hated you.

Prompt 77: Together

(Kitty)

Kitty looked awkwardly at the man in the room. After Alistair left, Kitty was left with the tall man without a face. He merely stood there, seemingly to stare at her. "Um… can I help you?" she asked him.

"In a matter of fact, you can," the man said. "My name is Slender. Slender Man. I have a daughter in your school who is very, very dear to me."

After hearing this, Kitty seemed to relax. "Oh, ok," she said with a smile. "Who is it?"

"I'm afraid I can't tell you… but I have a message for her for you to deliver," Slender said.

"Alright, I'm listening," Kitty said intently.

Slender nodded and took a mental breath. "I want her to know… that I love her. We may be apart and she may not know who I am for a long, long time. I've done things to her that… damaged her. I left her alone for so long and made her feel abandoned. But I only did it because of how much I truly cared for her. She may not understand why I've done the things I've done, and if she ever remembers me, she might be frustrated or confused. But she needs to know I will always love her. She may feel alone or that there's someone out there who hates her. But… let her know that I love her. And if she doesn't believe you, know that my love is always in her heart."

Kitty listened with all her might to Slender's message. As he progressed, a single tear exited her right eye. Slender noticed it, and if he had a mouth, he would have smiled. "Thanks Kitty. That's all I wanted to say."

Right as Slender turned around to leave, Kitty said, "Wait. You didn't tell me… who your daughter is. How can I deliver the message if I don't know who your daughter is?"

Slender stopped, but didn't turn back around. "Don't worry about it Kitty," Slender said. "She already heard it." Slender vanished, leaving Kitty a little bit confused as of what just happened.

(Neb)

Neb quietly shut the door to the boy's dorm. Maddie and Sven were both asleep, cuddling with each other. He was a sarcastic person and didn't care for much… but they were just too adorable to disturb. That wasn't to say Neb hadn't taken a picture for blackmail, but it was adorable all the same.

Neb took a few steps into the hallway and looked around. Lizzie was off exploring and Alistair was… wherever Alistair was. Neb took in a breath and took a few more steps.

"Hey Neb."

"Kitty," Neb said, briefly turning around to see Kitty standing in the hallway. "I thought you were resting."

"I thought I'd take a walk," Kitty shrugged. "Everything ok?"

"Yeah. I was going to go take care of something, actually," Neb said. "Plot stuff and all."

"Oh, ok. Don't let me get in your way then," Kitty said with a smile. Neb nodded and turned back around, only to pause.

"You know… I noticed four things I thought you should know," Neb said, not looking at Kitty.

"Oh? What?"

"You probably won't believe me, but I'll say them anyway," Neb said simply. "One, one of my guns is missing. That doesn't really pertain to you, but I thought I mention it. Two, when you were in your subconscious, Dark Kitty erased something from your memory, leaving a gap inside your conscience mind. That might not make a lot of sense, but it might in a moment. Three, for a traumatic experience, you're much too happy. You're normally depressed and fearful after something like this, but no, you aren't."

"Interesting, but seriously Neb, I'm fine," Kitty assured him.

"Alright," he said, shaking his head. "Except… the last thing."

"And what's that?"

Neb chuckled, shaking his head. No one knew his expression when he asked Kitty the question. The only thing anyone knew was that if they listened closely, he already knew the answer before he asked.

"How long have you been Dark Kitty?"

Kitty stared at Neb for a moment… before smirking. "Perceptive as ever," she said, shaking her head. She reached into her pocket and pulled out Neb's missing gun. "Shame I have to kill you now rather than later."

"It's better now. I love making my arcs end with a bang. Quite litera-"

BANG!

BN: This chapter was kind of a fair well to Slender. You'll see him at the end of the fic, but I just wanted a good chapter with him saying good-bye to Kitty. Sure, Kitty didn't really understand, but when/if she remembers him, she'll remember that farewell too. Also, the end scene. I'll let you speculate exactly what happened until the next arc, the Murder Arc. And trust me, it's not as gruesome as it sounds.

Like? Hate? Meh? Let me know via review.
