[ Cartman's POV ]

Today is Butters lame party, which I'm gonna make hell! Turns out my Slenderman costume came in the mailbox yesterday, so that was kewl. I stuff my costume in my bag, along with snacks, which I'm not gonna give to anyone else and drawings. I recreated the drawings of Slenderman just for this moment. It was pretty easy, actually. They were all just scribbled words and dumb pictures on them.

I started to head outside with my bag, but then I heard someone call out to me. " Goodbye Eric, stay safe! No staying the night, also! " I rolled my eyes at her, and as soon as I got to the front door, I slammed it shut. The cold breeze hit me again, I decided maybe I should just walk through the snow peacefully instead of running this time. That'll tire the crap out of me. As I walked, this made me think; If the party was gonna be in the woods, and based around wildlife, is there gonna be animals?! Hmm, nah. If that was true, Butters would've definitely gone on and on about it. When I think about it, Butters is pretty cute when he goes on and on about things. Er, well... it's still more annoying.

I finally arrive at the destination, and what fills my vision is an area filled with people chatting, a bright green table, a banner hung across trees that says, "WILDLIFE!", and best of all... there's food and snacks. I spy a cake with green icing, which I presume is chocolate cake, with a plastic squirrel thing decoration in it, which obviously isn't edible. There are also bright cupcakes that are in the pattern of green and blue, I wonder when we're gonna eat today because I'm gonna be eating all that by tonight. Nah, fuck it, I'll just head for some right now. I started sprinting to the table containing the snacks, but as I did, I didn't take the time to consider my surroundings. I bumped into a few people, sure, but then I ran straight into someone.

I fell to the floor, and I felt someone under me. I groaned and sat myself up, but when I looked beneath me, I saw the one and only, Butters. He was very shocked, and I saw a tinge of red on his face. " E-Eric?! What are you doing? You're crushin' me! " He struggled to say, clearly being suffocated by my weight on him. I'd just figure it's because he's weak because I'm not even that fat, or even fat to begin with, I'm big boned! " Well, sorry, I just tripped! " I said, but I felt my face warm up a bit once I fully processed the position I'm even in right now. I'm fucking straddling him to the ground! I immediately get off of him, brushing some snow off of me. As Butters sat up, though, his outfit was pretty soaked due to the snow. " Aww... " I heard him whine in disappointment, I rolled my eyes. I didn't feel too bad. All I'm worried about is if someone saw that.

" Dang, Eric, you done ruined my outfit! " Butters exclaimed unhappily at me, I didn't like the feeling of getting blamed. After all, if he saw me running toward him, maybe he should've moved out of the damn way! " Jeez, I didn't mean to ruin your outfit, chill your goddamn tits! " I replied snarkily. " I don't got no tits, Eric. " He said, glaring at me. Is he stupid? Actually, that was established long ago, he is pretty damn retarded. " Whatever, can I have some cupcakes? " I ask, eagerly eyeing the cupcakes on the table. " Uh, no, sorry, fella. We're gonna wait until later to have those. " He said, going over and grabbing a piece of paper towel. He started to wipe his outfit off with it, like that'd help. I think I made Butters grumpy because his tone wasn't nearly as energetic. I just brushed that whole thing off and took a gander around.

I saw my friends, Stan, and Kyle. Don't know where Kenny is, though. I decided maybe I could attempt to talk to them again, so I approached them. " Hey fags, what's goin' on? " I said, which caused them to all turn to look at me. Kyle looked the most pissed off. " What the hell are you doing here? We told you to stay away from us, fatass! " He yelled, and that pissed me off. Are they still mad? Goddamn! " Kahl, seriously, the hand sanitizer thing was days ago. " I said, scoffing. " You're really breakin' my balls here. " Kyle's eyes widened at what I said, and he stepped a bit closer to me. " Okay, first of all, that was a fucking day ago, get it right! Second of all, you poisoned Kenny and then he fucking died today, you bastard! " Kyle scolded, I rolled my eyes at him. Why the hell should I care? Kenny dies all the time. Do they forget that shit? " Pft, yeah, whatever... like I want to hang out with you guys anyway, you guys are assholes. " I told him, before storming away. They are so annoying... do they know how to take a fuckin' prank?

[ Butters' POV ]

I'm a little disappointed Eric ruined my shirt, which made me a bit mad at him. I sighed and organized some plastic plates. The light, cold wind easily soothed me into being more calm and collected, I really liked the way wind felt, how it blew on your hair. It was always a calming feeling, but Eric didn't seem to be looking too calm right now. I looked over at Eric. He seemed to be throwing snowballs at nests... huh. He's a weirdo, but I always kind of liked that about him. I long the day that Eric will truly appreciate how I feel about him... but until then, I just hope to become even better buddies with him.

Some time has passed, and everyone is having fun out here. They were playing tag, throwing snowballs at each other, some.. eating snow, which I want to try, it always looked pretty edible... and some were enjoying the cupcakes and cake, especially Eric. Actually, that reminds me! Eric has been gone for quite a bit of minutes now, I wondered if he just went to the bathroom or something, but I know it doesn't take no 20 minutes to use the bathroom... I seem to be the only one who noticed, or well, is worried, at least. I decided maybe I should go and look for him, it's like 7 pm and it's pretty late.

I look around, and I find the outhouse, gee, I wouldn't want to use the bathroom in there. It's very old and... cold in there. I knocked on it and waited for an answer.

... Silence.

I knock again for confirmation, of course.

...... More silence.

I give up and keep looking around the woods. As I walk, I hear the soft crunch of the snow. I have to taste it one day, I like the idea of eating something white and delicious-looking like that!

I still haven't seen any sign of Eric, and I'm starting to get really worried. I hate walking through the woods, especially when it's this close to being dark. But I would not leave Eric to die in the woods for nothing! As I continued my journey through the trees and thick, white snow, I noticed a thing on one of the trees. I raise an eyebrow and walk toward it. It's a... picture? I grabbed it off the tree and looked at it, but once I read it I felt my heart sink into my chest. It had the words "ALWAYS WATCHES." and "NO EYES." written on it. Suddenly, I felt the urge to study my surroundings. Oh hamburgers, WHAT does that note MEAN?!

I panic, and I try to look to see if I can find the pathway back to where my party was taking place. I pick a direction and immediately just sprint through the trees. But then, I suddenly lose my balance, and I fall right onto the cold, wet, snow. I lift myself and turn to look behind me, to see what possibly tripped me. But then I look up and I see... a faceless creature with a suit and tentacles. My heart was racing, I couldn't move, I just stared at in fear. Is that what the note had said?! Is this it?...

" ... Boo. " It said.

That's when I screamed, and I got up and ran as fast as I could. I had no intent of stopping until I was reunited with all the others at my party. Eventually, I got tired, and I didn't see any sight of the area my party was set in. Was I lost? I hesitantly looked behind me, it seems like the thing wasn't chasing me. I tried to catch my breath, but my heart stopped as I realized that... maybe that thing is going for my friends at my party?! I figured I was going the wrong way, so I turned around and continued running.
