Jeff and the Succubus [ON HIATUS]

Chapter 18 - The Under Realm (Part 2)

Monica's P. O. V.

After waiting on Candie to grab that killer, I followed her to Slenderman's little house of horrors. It wasn't a long fly, about ten minutes, to the secluded mansion that was once a boarding house. Though it was well hidden in Slenderman's territory, I would've never guessed that building was his. We landed in the building's massive courtyard, which was overgrown with weeds from lack of grooming, and walked up the path to the building's front doors. A small girl with curly hair and a pink night dress ran after a ghost boy wearing a green tunic, before spotting us and making a dash for Candie. She lept into my sister's arms with glee as she spun her around and the ghost boy who was following her went to Jeff and started chatting. I stood a bit back, knowing these monsters could be capable of anything and kept my guard up, and watched the four in front of me laugh and talk until the girl spotted me. Her eyes were wide in childish curiosity as she scrambled out of Candie's arms and made her way to me. Out of habit, I stepped back from her as she got closer, then scoffed at myself for being afraid of a mere child. Taking a calming breath, I squatted to be at her height.

"Who are you?" She asked with a bit of attitude.

"I'm Candie's sister, Monica. And you are?" I asked her, raising a brow.

"I'm Sally." She answered after sizing me up. "Candie didn't tell me she had a sister. How do I know you aren't lying?" She put her hands on her small hips.

"She has two sisters- me and another girl." I chuckled. Behind her, the ghost boy came to stand behind her along with Jeff and my sister.

"At ease, Sally," Jeff scooped Sally up and sat her on his neck, where she looked down at me and stuck her tongue out. Shaking my head, I stood and looked the ghost boy over. He had blond hair and elfin ears that stuck out from under a long, green Phrygian cap that crinkled at the tip, which was at his waist. His eyes were pitch black with red pupils that pooled over with blood, like he was eternally crying blood. He appeared to be about Sally's age, and dressed like an elf.

"Y'know, there's a lot more where this came from," He smiled, his tone a bit flirtatious. He winked when I gasped at his audacity.

"Excuse you?" I put my hands on my hips. Jeff smacked him in the back of the head, shaking his head in disappointment.

"Sorry, Monica, this is BEN. He's a lot older than he seems," Candie explained as BEN eyed me up in down, biting his lip, "and a bit of a flirt. Ignore him."

"Nice to meet you, erm, BEN." I nodded at Candie's words, watching the boy.

"The pleasures all mine." He gave me a suggestive smile and I scoffed.

"Not in your wildest of wild dreams, boy." I waved him off. "Anywho, lets get inside, yeah?" Jeff nodded and led the way.

As soon as the door opened, I was met with a barking red and black dog with a torn smile in his snout that made him look like Jeff. I was aware of this Creepypasta, Smile Dog, and knew he was sort of like Hell Hounds, as a messenger of death. Though, his was more if you didn't continue his chain message. The dog pounced on me and sent us both flying out the door with it's strength. Quickly, I channeled a bit of magic and threw him back so that I could land on my feet. One thing I learned fighting on the streets, never let your back hit the ground. I pushed out my claws and ran at the dog, who'd recovered quickly and was preparing to pounce. As I closed the distance between us, two voices caught our attention.

"Monica, no!"

"Smile, heel!"

My heels made a screeching noise as I stopped mid-attack and Smile let out a low growl at me before trotting back to Jeff and sitting at his side. It sounded like he mumbled something under his breath as he left. I glared at Candie and stormed toward her, Jeff quickly putting Sally down and standing inbetween us with his blade aimed at my chest.
