Part 15|Visions (1 out of 2)

*visions-slenders P.O.V*

I roamed the area I hunted down the little girl yesterday to find her back at the lake. She was singing a tune and I hesitated...

She stopped and looked back, smiling this time. She ran up to me and held a piece of paper up to me.

"It's you!" She declared

The stick figure with a red tie... (A* art right there!) y/n be quiet -_- (sorry)

I pulled the piece of paper out my pocket and handed her picture back. She accepted and looked at it, a sad smile on her face.

"Mum and dad are going through a divorce" she sighs "mum says that dad might be leaving. I was trying to make a picture of all us happy together, so they might stay together... But..."

Suddenly, I felt the need to kneel beside her and hold my arm on her shoulder.

She looked amazed as I telepathically told her "pictures hold a thousand words"

"But my pictures no good!" She whines

"It doesn't matter the skill of the artist, if your drawing from the heart THATS what matters. Each TRUE picture holds memories and a thousand words to back it up"

"Will a thousand words help my parents?" She asked

"Hopefully" I nod and stand

"How can you do that? The talking thing?" She asks

(oh gosh, bee movie up in here!) y/n... I told you to be quiet (ok sorry~)

I didn't reply but he nodded anyway. She collected her sketchpad and hugged my leg before running off...

I let her go again...

Over the past couple of days, something stopped me from attacking her and I'm not sure what. It made me want to protect her somehow. She brung various games and even a chess game which neither of us understood how to play.

Some days she came, some days she didn't. But she would NEVER leave for more than two days.

A month had passed, I watched how she grew like she was my own child. I found her by her usual spot and sat beside her.

"Mum and dad are divorced" she sighed an began to cry

And instinct (instinct?) ... (Ok continue) ok... An instinct told me to console her which I did. I wrapped my real arm around her and hugged her.

"Slendy, your the best friend I've ever had" she says through hiccups of tears

This touched me. No ones ever said those words to me before. I looked down at her, this made me want to protect her and not hurt her. She stood and collected her bag and waved, running off. I remained seated and watched the waterfall.

I was so caught up in a daze that I almost... ALMOST... Didn't realise Jeff trying to stealth me. I caught him with one of my arms and stood.

"NO! WHY!" He whined

"Your terrible" I glare

"WELL I CANT TELEPORT LIKE YOU!"

"I don't teleport. I'm so quick that everyone misses it" I state

"Yeah? And I'm queen of the faries" he says with a sarcastic tone

I throw him against a tree and begin to walk off.

"HEY! I WAS JOKING YA KNOW! ...if I was queen of the faries I'd be rich"
