What About Me? (A Short Story/Creepy Pasta about Derp Ssundee

Chapter 6: Its The Eyes

(I wanted to name this chapter after Squeaker01 's books It's The Eyes and It's The Eyes 2: Are You Afraid To Die. They are amazing stories and if you haven't read them I highly recommend them. She's an amazing writer and it's really good if you like murder plot twists and all that fun stuff so here's to you squeaker!)

*Quentin's POV*

I'd gone to Ssundee's house this morning and he wasn't there. His bed looked like it hadn't even been slept in. Maybe he had gotten lost in the storm and never made it home. He did say we'd meet at Sky's house today to play color shuffle so I guess I'll meet him there. I left a quick note saying I'd come looking for him but he wasn't here and that I'd meet him at Sky's house. As I walked something felt wrong, like my insides were coated with ice. (Which is very uncomfortable when your amphibious.) Ssundee rarely ever got lost and if he did he always found someway to get back on track or find somewhere familiar. But my gut told me something was wrong, something happen to Ian...? I hope not...

A little while later I made it to Sky's house. I knocked on the door and waited for the door to open but instead I got an answer.

"Come in..." Came Sky's voice only something sounded wrong. He sounded sad and upset. I went inside.

Sky, Jason and Ty sat on the couch. Jason was in the middle Sky and Ty were rubbing his shoulder and back. It looked like Jason was shaking.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

Sky looked over and back Ty. He stood up and walked over to me. His face was grim. He took a deep breath. "Mitch and Jerome are dead..." He whispered shakily.

"What?! How?!" I cried.

Sky gave a small shrug. "Jason hasn't said... He found them but he hasn't said a word since he came in shaking and stuttering that they were dead."

I looked over at Jason and Ty. Jason was clearly trembling and Ty was hugging him trying to calm him down.

I was still curios. How could someone kill Mitch and Jerome? I mean not only were they great guys but they both were PvP masters! One of them always won the hunger games so taking them down wouldn't be easy. Which meant whatever killed them was probably inhuman or too good... I needed to change the subject.

"Um, hey have any of you guys seen Ian? I don't think he made it home last night." I said.

Sky shook his head and as I said Ian Jason started whimpering. Sky and I looked over at him. Ty hugged him tighter trying to keep him calm.

"Shhhh... It's ok Jason... What's wrong?" Ty said gently rubbing his back.

"S-s-saw... I-I-Ian..." He stuttered. It was very hard to understand because he mumbled and his helmet made it worse.

Ty gently took off Jason's helmet revealing his fluffy light brown hair and sapphire blue eyes which were wide with fear. "Try now Jason."

"I-I-I s-saw... I-Ian... H-he was there..."

"Why didn't he come back to my place with you?" Sky asked.

"B-b-because... He-he k-killed them... I-I heard Jerome scream..."

"What?!" We all cried.

Jason started shaking again his eyes wide and fearful. Ty hugged him tighter and I looked at Sky.

"Ian would never kill someone..." I whispered.

"I know."

"So how can we be sure it was Ian?"

"You think Jason would lie?"

"No of course not but he's freaking out."

"I realize that."

I glance over at Ty who was whispering to Jason. His shaking was starting to calm down but his eyes were still wide. Wait... Eyes...

"Hey Jason?" I asked.

He looks over at me.

"Jason was Ian wearing his sunglasses?"

Jason shook his head slightly. I saw Ty's eyes widen. We knew what that meant. Ian's glasses were gone and Derp Ssundee was loose. Sky trembled, he was terrified of Derp because Derp had beat him up pretty bad when they first met in that cops and robbers. I mean we all were but then he was fairly under control but not this time. This time he was out for blood he was out to kill.

"H-h-his eyes were crooked... A-and full of hatred..." Jason said.

"That wasn't Ian, Jason. That was Derp Ssundee. Ian's evil alter ego." I told him. I wouldn't let anyone be afraid of or hate Ian because this wasn't his fault. "It's the eyes, that's how you tell. If they're straight it's Ian, if they're crooked it's Derp."

Jason gave a small nod.

"So... How do we... Bring Ian back?" Ty asked.

"Simple. We find his sunglasses."

"What if he has them? Or they're broken?"

"... Then we're in trouble, and we'll have to figure out what to do." I said truthfully. If we couldn't find Ian's glasses then Ian would be trapped until Derp let him out or he got strong enough to break out. Both are unlikely and the second option is dangerous.

"Then let's go." Sky said. Ty and Jason stool up and walked over to us. Sky was about to open the door when it was blown off it's hinges sending us all flying back.

Sky flew into a chair and tipped it over while Jason and Ty flew back with the door and got trapped underneath. I flew back into the corner of Sky's table and a sharp pain ran through me as the corner stabbed into my lower back. I cried out in pain and fell to my knees. I looks up to see Derp Ssundee step through the smoke. His eyes just as Jason said, crooked and full of hatred. My vision turned fuzzy. I hit the corner hard and the pain was unreal. As I blacked out I saw those crooked eyes... Derp Ssundee's eyes...
