Candie's P.O.V

We kept walking after I ate Nikki. It was actually kind of anticlimactic, and a bit dramatic like E.J. said, but it still didn't change anything. I was still a servant to a group of mass murderers and I was still falling, pathetically, for one. To be honest, it was starting to get a little too quiet around us. Glancing around, I made sure nobody was paying attention to me and Jeff, then let out a loud burp.

"Ew, Jeff!" I squealed, slapping his arm.

"What the- That wasn't me, it was you!" He rubbed his arm.

"Nice, Jeff, blame it on the chick," BEN looked up from his phone, shaking his head.

"It wasn't me!" Jeff yelled defensively.

"Sure it wasn't, Jeff." Lulu scoffed, making L.J. laugh with her.

"Ugh. I hate you all." Jeff grumbled.

"Hate is a strong word, Jeffy." I pouted.

"Shut it, you." He growled. I just laughed in response.

"So. How much longer, Master." I sneered. I still don't like that tall fucktard.

"We're here." He stopped, making everyone else stop. "Lulu, raise the fog, please."

"Kay," Her cute small voice chirped out. I didn't notice it before, but she really didn't have any eyes. Just an empty space where they should be. "Oops. Almost forgot." As she said that, she pulled some eyeballs out of a small pocket in her dress and popped them in her sockets. It was kinda unnerving.

"It's rude to stare, missy." Jeff whispered in my ear. Blushing, I quickly changed my focus to something else. As the smoke rose, a gigantic well started to show right in front of us. It had an emblem of the Earth on the arch above it. It looked...vaguely familiar.

"This is the well?" I asked, letting go of Jeff's hand to walk over to it. Gently, I ran a hand over the emblem.

"Yep," BEN took out one of his earbuds and stood next to me. "One way fall into our world."

"How many of these are there?" I asked absently.

"I dunno. A bunch." He shrugged.

"They're all spread about the world, hidden from humans." Masky added.

"Cool." I smiled. "So, who's first?"

"I'll go first. I must tell the gate keepers we are here," Slendy volunteered. I watched as he came to the mouth of the well and went down head first.

"Um." I awkwardly looked down the deep hole. "Do I have to go down like that?"

"Unless you want a bad landing when you get to the other side," E.J. huffed as he strode pass me and down the well.

"If you go down head first, you'll land on your feet, and vice versa." BEN explained.

"Ah." I nodded. All who was left was Jeff, BEN, and me at this point. "So. Just jump?"

"Yes, jeez." Jeff sighed. Frustrated, he grabbed my arm and snatched me over to the well. Before I could say anything, I was falling down the well, Jeff and BEN right behind me, laughing. I shot into the air on the other side, a good few feet off the ground, and had to spread my wings to keep from falling. Jeff and BEN crashed to the ground as I landed next to the group.

"That's what you get for pushing me," I laughed at the boys and stuck my tongue out at them.

"Behave," Slendy warned us.

"Whatever," Jeff grumbled, getting to his feet and dusting himself off.

"Either way," Masky cleared his throat, "welcome to the Under Realm." I looked around me at the tall buildings under the night sky. There was no moon or stars, just black space. The area was lit by the neon signs in store fronts, like Vegas, and there were all kinds of people and creatures roaming the streets.
