I stare at Jeff, staring at the wall. Nothing weirder than seeing a psychopath staring into space...

"Ahem" I cough, catching his attention "if you don't mind me asking, why am I here?"
"Dunno" he shrugs
"Your help" I roll my eyes
"Ask slenderman"
"Who? The tall dude?"
"Pretty much" Jeff nods "but he's out at the moment till dark. He said not to let you out the house"
"WHAT?!" I say in shock

I jump up from the bed and charge over to Jeff-

"I WAS DRAGGED OUT MY NORMAL LIFE TO BE LOCKED INSIDE A MANSION?!"
"Your so annoying" Jeff rolls his eyes

I glare at him before walking across the door and into the hallway-

"WHERE YOU GOING!" He calls
"Out"
"WHERE?"
"Home"

He had to run to catch up with my fast walk. He ran in front of me and spread his arms to his side-

"YOU CANT! SLENDER WILL KILL ME!"

I stare at him...

"And how many times have you killed people?"
"Too many to count" he mumbles
"Please... Just let me go..." I pout
"No"
"I SAID... LET.ME.GO"
"N-O-P-E!" He spells
"Fine" I shrug and brush past him

I continue walking ahead whilst looking back at Jeff-

"I'm not even acquainted with anyone within this household! How can you expect me to be fine with-"

I was cut off when I felt air beneath my feet. My head turns forwards and I find myself trip on the top of a staircase. Where I was walking so fast my body didn't even touch the steps as I fell. I squinted my eyes and awaited for impact...

I suddenly felt the g-force let me go and my weight come back. I feel warmth upon my body and I slowly open my eyes.

I open my eyes to confront eyeless jack, holding me within his arms. Fear trembles within me, not sure how and why. I guess it's because I was so courageous and daring yesterday my energy was drained and all that's left is my sanity.

"Morning" he nods
"Um..."
"Your meant to say morning back you know, common manners"
"Oh, morning" I say wearily
"Don't think about fainting again" he adds
"I won't"
"Promise?"
'Why would I deliberately faint in front of a bunch of psychopaths?' I wonder
"Promise" he repeats
"Oh, er... I'll try" I nod

He sighs.

"Look, boss says your not allowed to leave. Your lucky everyone in the house has their sanity on so/so... Especially Jeff"
"What do you mean?"
"By now he would of shredded you limb to limb"
"Wow, that's reassuring" I sigh "now if you don't mind, can you put me down?"
"I do mind"
"Huh?"
"I won't put you down till you thank me"
"For what?"
"Catching you, maybe you fell for my good looks"
"LIKE SHE WOULD!" Jeff yells

He appears at the top of the stairs, tripping up on the first step and smacking his head on the following steps. He falls at the bottom in front of jack...

"I see your also falling for me" jack laughs
"AS IF!" Jeff says with anger in his tone
"ALSO? WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT!"
"Never mind" he sighs and drops me, me falling on Jeff "I'm out to look for the rake"
"Why you associating with him?" Jeff asks, his tone muffled under me
"It's my business, not yours" jack hisses and walks out the front door
"Rude much" Jeff sighs before pushing off him "BEN take care of her"
"Where you going?" I ask
"Out"

I pout and watch him leave. Nows my chance!

I stand upright and go to bolt until a hand taps my shoulder. I stop and look back to confront a blonde boy in a link outfit, pulling a scheming look.

"Wanna play a game?" He asks

My heart races, what was his evil scheme? Kill me slowly? Make it quick and painless? Torture me???

"I'm gonna play x-box" he states
"Oh..."
"Wanna play?"
"Sure" I shrug, one game can't hurt... Right?
