"*]*\%*_?!..
*]*\%*_where are you?!.."
A woman, tall structured and well dressed calls out into a deep abyss.
"Oh my god.. I cant believe this.."
The woman looks desperate, as sweat rolls down her stressed stained face.
She look around the abyss, when I slowly notice another person.
This girl, who looks around to be my age, is with this woman. This girl also appears to be in distress, but I had no idea why.
In one of her hands she holds pink slips of paper. However, no matter how hard I looked, I couldn't tell what the paper said!
These two people were yelling for someone, but from my view it looked like they were yelling at nothing.
The surrounding were pitch black,with those two being the only things there.
I was starting to lose focus when the woman came face to face with me and looked at me.
My blood had run cold, I didn't know they could see me!
"Please.. come back.."
And thats when it clicked.
This woman.. she was my adop- no, my mother, and she was calling in distress.
And then the girls distorted face unscrambled to reveal Athena.
My favorite two people, in pain..
Now the name they were calling before made sense, the silly word I couldn't understand before has come together.. to form my own name.
"Lilith.. please."

—————————-
I immediately woke up, as beads of cold sweat run down my face.
"What in the word was that?!"
I put my hand against my pale cold face in disbelief..
"Ive had bad dreams before but not like this..She looked straight at me, like she knew I was there!"
I look over to the side to see dim sunlight drift through my dusty window.
I started to really pay attention to my new room and saw that in actuality it was quite messy and dusty..
Still nervous and jittery from the crazy dream I had, I made the notion to clean my room in order to distract myself!

"I'm just gonna assume that nobody is gonna bother me today.. since slender- er.. dad.. had told me to answer the door to nobody but himself"
I was muttering to myself like a crazy person.

I slowly get out of my bed and look around.
I haven't had an actual chance to really look around yet!
I open up different cabinets and look through shelves, mostly hoping to find some cleaning supply's but also for the sake of exploring my new found surroundings.
So far, I've found clothes, very little makeup, and stuff to draw and write with! Like pencils and papers.
It wasn't till I scavenged through the last drawer that I had found some paper towels and a disinfecting spray!
"How.. strangely convenient!"
I pick them up and go to ny dusty window to wipe off the grime that has been collecting there for god knows how long..

Even while I was cleaning my room I couldn't help but think of my dream.
Dad had mentioned previously about how I had "Powers"
Maybe my dream felt so real and therefore creepy because maybe.. just maybe I was using some sort of telepathy through my dreams to see my mother and Athena.
I grip the paper towel in my hand harder as I wipe more aggressively.
Maybe.. if I had not been so dumb and clumsy before I would still have them.. and they wouldn't be suffering right now!

"Get ahold of yourself Lilith."
I say with unsure confidence.

*Time Skip*

I finally finish cleaning my dusty room!
I look around at my accomplishment.
"But.. what now?"
I look to my left to face my now *clean* window, only to be met with dim clouds shading any form of sunlight coming through.
*rumble rumble rumble*

I had been cleaning for so long that I had distracted myself from growing hunger!
"Auggh.. I don't know what to do, I'm hungry but I don't know if I'm allowed out."

And then suddenly I had the brightest idea!
I knew it was wrong but my stomach and survival instincts said otherwise.
So I slowly opened my door, and peaked my head out to see my surroundings!
Lucky for me, it seemed as if nobody was there.

I slowly make me way out of my room in search for food.
Once I reached the end of what I think is called the proxy hall, and to a brand new area also filled with doors.
I'm still not completely sure who these doors belong too, but nobody is out right now so I take the opportunity to make my way to the stairs.

I made sure to be extra quiet while making my way to the visible kitchen in-front of me.
"I guess it's my lucky day.. nobody is here."
I mutter to myself as I tip toe my way to where food hopefully is.

I go up the counter and realized how short I am compared to it...
Dad is so talk, maybe I'll get a growth spurt soon.
As I'm thinking to myself I try to reach the cabinet above me, completely unaware of the pair of eyes staring at me..
"Hgnnh.. can't.. reach!"
Completely on my toes im trying to grab a bag of what looks to be chips from the cabinet.

"Having trouble there?"
A voice says in the back, scaring the absolute shit out of me!
"Agh!! Who are you??..please don-"

"That's enough! I was just asking if you needed help.."
I try to look around as to where in the world this voice came from before I see a short but lengthy figure crawl out of the tv.
"What the?!"
I exclaimed, obviously confused!
When the figure emerged he had blonde hair, elf ears, and the most notorious feature, bloody dead eyes..
A chill ran down my spine..
"Who exactly are you? Are you a new member??"
He slowly makes his way towards me while I slowly back AWAY.
"My question is, who are *you*??"
I say with fake confidence.

"Oh! Right um, You can just call me Ben."
He stands in front of me, he's almost my height but still noticeably more shorter than me.
"Your not supposed to see me..! I-I shouldn't be here.. I was supposed to be in my room! Im sorry but slend-"
I try to stutter my out of this weird situation.
"Hey chill! Jeeezz.. If slender wants you here than I wont hurt you. And besides, you never told me your name newbie."
The small man reaches his pale hand towards me, and I timidly reach back to shake it.
"Lilith, call me Lilith.."
Suddenly he let get go of my hand and floated to the shelf. (I'm gonna make ben able to float off the ground! But he can't float too high.)
He grabbed the chips with ease and slowly floated down to hand them to me.
"Listen lilith! I know your new but you should really go back to your room, if slender had told you to not come out then you shouldn't disobey him! Trust me."
He stared at me with such seriousness in his tone, it didn't at all match his much more bubbly and chill attitude he wore before.
"Ah.. right. Thank you."
I gingerly grab the chips from Bens hand.
"We should talk more Lilith, i'd loveee to have new friends to annoy with my never ending questions!"
The sudden mood change freaked me out but I found it a little endearing that he had wanted to be friends! Even if it was just to be annoying.

We silently walked- er well *I* walked and he floated, to my room till he stopped midway at the proxy hall.
"Uhh.. Lilith I think your gowing the wrong way. *Thats the PROXY hall..* A.K.A the "Dont fuck with me or else" hall.!"
Slight fear stained his face as he looked at me with an exaggerated look on his face.
"Oh.. hhmm no! Thats my room! Rrighht there." I point over to a door and Ben looks in shock!
"Whaat! Your gonna be a proxy?! But you seem so cool, how??"
He questioned me, obviously confused.
"oh I guess soo huh! I still need training, so I'm not a "Official" proxy yet."
I state.

"Oh, I guess that makes more sense.."
Ben says still confused and obviously lying to not seem dumb.

As soon as I finally enter my room I notice the sun beginning to set.
It's funny, I've barely ate today and yet after only one bag of chips my hunger is almost gone.
I decided not to question anymore and I lay down in my comfy *clean* bed.

"What a long and boring day.."
Slowly my eyes begin to close, and I drift into a deep sleep.
