Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe....thanks for reading!
Teaching Angela was the hardest thing Slenderman had ever done. And he had done a lot of hard things. Angela, the girl he loved so dearly, was the most stubborn person he had ever met. When he tried to explain disappearing, she merely replied by chasing a butterfly. Try to show her how to run without sound? Good luck with that! She'll throw dead leaves at you. At the end of the day though, he was glad to have someone like Angela in his life, to light the way. But for the love of God she had no discipline.
There was this one time Slenderman tried to teach Angela how to use her tentacles.
It was night time (as usual) and they both silently peeked around the trees to see a small abandoned camper in the middle of a little clearing. No one was around. Slenderman making the ok signal, they both stepped out. Slenderman turned to face her and said, "Okay, I'm going to show you how to use your tentacles."
She crossed her arms and said, "I thought you didn't like them."
He shrugged and said, "I don't but...it has come to my attention that you may need some...protection." Angela snorted and shook her head.
"Why," She said laughing, "do I need protection? It's not like humans can harm me anymore! And I'm pretty sure there's really anything that can actually hurt me right?"
Slenderman shifted uncomfortably and said, "I'm not sure. There are some forces that...even I can't explain. This is just so I know you can be safe on my own if I..."
A puzzled attitude came over Angela and said, "If you what?"
He shook his head and said, "Nevermind. Just a strange thought. Anyway back to the lesson! Now you must focus. Imagine yourself opening up, letting everything flow out." Slenderman saw little bumps start to raise on Angela's back. It was starting. Maybe I should've cut holes in her dress, Slenderman thought absentmindedly. He noticed the bumps getting bigger and said, "Good, you're doing great. Now this next part might hurt-"
"You never...said it was...going to HURT!" Angela exclaimed through gasping breaths.
He took her hand and said, "I know, I know I'm sorry but it will just be a small pinch."
She laughed shakily and said, "Yeah...that's what people...say when it actually...hurts like hell!" She squeezed his hand tighter. It actually almost hurt him. Slenderman grunted in pain. Finally the tention ceased and Angela breathed, "I can't do it..." She plopped on the ground. Slenderman knelt down next to her and softly caressed her face. He knew she liked it. It seemed to calm her down enough.
He then told her quietly, "We can stop for today. You were doing absolutely fine."
She shook her head and said, "No, I wanna do it again. I know I can do it, I just...need the push. When you started, what triggered it for you?" Slenderman thought for a moment. His father had shown him all this, but he wasn't quite good at it. He remembered it finally happened when Slender had gotten so angry...
"Anger." Slenderman said.
Angela nodded her head and said, "Alright, make me angry."
Slender rubbed his chin and said, "I...I don't think I can do that."
"Why?" Angela asked shocked.
He sighed and said, "I don't want to insult you! You're my...fiancée." The word still sounded strange to him. Almost alien.
She shook her head and said, "No, I want you to. Now please...try." They stood once again. He back away from Angela, missing the pressure on his hand. But Angela had to do this. For her safety. She gave him a nod, then started to concentrate again. The bumps appeared on her back.
Slenderman the weakly said, "You um...are an idiot." Angela looked at him.
"No Slendy, you're the idiot. Think of. Something. Better!" She grunted. He slumped his shoulders.
"Uh....I don't like your cooking? Er...that dress looks horrible! No no...uh..."
"SLENDER!"
"Uh...uh...you're really fat!"
Both of them paused. Angela stopped and looked at her fiancée. "What?" She hissed.
He gulped and said, "You...are....fat?" Then everything seemed to happen all at once. The slithering sound of Angela's tentacles grew louder until they reached full height. They shot out at Slenderman. His breath hitched as he cowered in her power. Never ha he felt anything so dark. He guessed this is what the humans felt when he was around. Angela's tentacles lashed at him, grabbing his arms and slamming him against a tree. If he had eyes, they would be wide in fear as she grew to meet him face to face.
Slender Cat, who had been adjusting his suit like a proper gentlecat should, scurried away, fearful his master's anger.
Angela's voice hissed as she said, "How dare you! Say that again and I will rip your STUPID BALD HEAD OFF!!"
He raised his hands and said shakily, "Angela, remember what you said? I'm just trying to help."
"Help?!" She shrieked. The sound of her voice vibrated in his head. What the hell had he done?
He leaned forward and said, "Angela, I love you." She stopped breathing for a moment. Her body was perfectly still. She then untangled her tentacles from his arms and slowly sunk down. He let out a relieved sigh and sunk down with her. She looked confused. As if waking up out of a trance. Slenderman didn't want to, but he had to make sure she was okay. He rested a hand on her shoulder and asked tentively, "Angela...?"
Her head snapped up to face him and said, "Oh my goodness! Did I hurt you? Oh Slendy I am so sorry!" She embraced him, asking for his forgiveness. A smile twitched on his face as he embraced her back, telling her it was alright. Angela asked if she hurt him. The truth was she had hurt him so badly, he was afraid there would be bruises. But he lied and said he barely felt anything. He didn't want to make her even more upset. She pulled away and said, "I'm so sorry." For the tenth time.
Slenderman chuckled and said, "It's alright, look I'm fine! Though you probably scared the crap out of Slendercat..." He shook his head, remember how the cat fled from the scene. She looked worried again, but he soothed her by saying, "Hey, you did great. I am so proud of you! Why don't we get your dress fixed up, then look for Slendercat and tell him everything is okay?" She nodded and hooked her slender arm with his.
That night, Angela dropped two sizes on her dress.
