The Slenderman

Moving on

I shook my head with my eyes closed thinking, Not now, please not now... I stopped shaking my head and opened my eyes, looking towards where the man was. Thankfully, he was gone. Suddenly a hand touched my shoulder. My instinct would be to punch whoever it was but, I didn't. I looked behind me and there stood Dean, worry written all over his face. I smiled at him and he sat down next to me, hugging my shoulders tightly.

"You know Carter, if you have to, you can cry..." He said looking at me. I looked up at him, pain, sadness, and agony shooting throughout my eyes but, not a single tear was shed. Soon, Taven and Destiny appeared in the doorway. Destiny was crying and Taven was emotionless.

I stood up as Taven walked over to me. Dean grabbed my wrist but, let go when I pulled away slightly. Taven pulled me into a tight hug. I hugged back. Thoughts ran through my head. They may or may not be my siblings. They might be telling the truth. Where's Alice?! I pushed away from Taven, running into the church. I called for Alice. I checked my phone. No messages or anything. I called her.

"Hello?" Some one said. They sounded groggy.

"Is Alice there?" I said panicking.

"This is she. And who are you?" Alice replied.

"It's Carter. I was just wondering where you were," I had calmed down. From the sound of it, she was alone in a room.

"Oh, hey Carter," she sneezed, "Ugh, I'm sorry... I got a cold. I totally wish I could've come to pay my respects but, I didn't want to get anyone sick..."

"Okay, well I understand..." I sighed, "Alright, well, I gotta go... I'll talk to ya later."

"Okay..." We hung up and I backed up to the wall. I slid down, pulling my knees up to my chest, and resting my head on my knees. I was in a long and empty hallway.

"I have to move on... Being stuck on something for the rest of my life will eventually kill me..." I stood up slowly holding my head. I had a head ache really bad. I used the wall and started walking. My mind felt fuzzy and there was a ringing in my ears. I came upon a door that I've never seen before and on it was a beautiful design. I traced the designs and came up onto a note. Note 7... I'm so close to my final note... I thought to myself... "I can't move on quite yet, I have to finish this..." I walked back to the courtyard, where I found the final dagger. Die Zu Töten...
