The Daughter of Ticci Toby (Book 1 of the Daughter's Series's)

Can I keep her?

**Still Toby's P.O.V**

I reach the Slender Mansion, a few minutes later. Right when I'm about to open the door, I stop in my tracks. What am I gonna say to Slendy? He doesn't like kids. Oh god. What am I gonna do? I sit down on the steps, with little Ariana in my arms. I know she has to be hungry. Shit, what am I gonna do. I sigh, as I sit there, thinking of a plan, or a way to get Ariana inside, without the others noticing. She moves silently in my arms, her tic's, are the only sound. I gulp, as I stand up, and open the door. I walk in, to see BEN, and Jeff playing the X-Box 360. I close the door silently, and walk into the kitchen. What to baby's eat? I groan in annoyance, and start walking to my room. When I reach the steps, someone touches my shoulder. I turn my head, and see BEN. "What's in your arms Toby?", he asks. "N-nothing BE-BEN." I tend to stutter, when I talk to other people. He gives me a 'I'm not a dumb ass' look. I shrug and walk upstairs, and walk into my room, making sure to lock the door. I don't even have a bed for Ariana.

"Shit. I didn't think this through.", I whisper to myself. I get on the computer in my room, and search up what baby's eat, and sleep in, when they are weeks old. Thank Zalgo for Google. It says, they drink something called formula, and they sleep in cribs. It also says, to have diapers, and clothes, and a thing called a stroller. Ok, let's go break into Kmart. I grab Ariana, unlock my door quietly, and walk down stairs, making sure to not make a sound. Ariana, made a little sound, that sounded like a whimper. I shush her quietly and rock her back, and forth. BEN, and Jeff still have their eyes glued to that TV, as I walk to the door, and walk out, with the occasional sound of either BEN, or Jeff cursing out of anger. I wonder if I can get Slendy, if he lets me keep Ariana, to make her immortal. The process is not painful or anything. All you do is drink something, and the next day, you feel different. Like, you can climb a mountain, without stopping. Us Creepypastas are immortal, so we stop aging at a certain age. That age happens to be eighteen. So I'm officially done aging. Ariana still whimpers, as I continue to walk. I rock her back and forth, and hum to her. The reason I know how to do this, is because Sally does this to her baby dolls. Sally stopped aging at eight, where she died at that age.

I finally reach Kmart, and use my hatchet to pry open the sliding doors. I hurry inside before the door closes on me. I can't feel pain, but I don't want to hurt my baby girl. Wait. Did I just call her.... Never mind. Before I leave the doors, I put something in between them so it will keep them open, so I won't have to hurry, and get everything in a rush. I grab all the things I'll need, for my baby. I guess, I'm officially calling her my child. I smile to myself, as I grab everything. I put Ariana in a stroller, that has a sun shield on top of it. I buckle her in (thanks to the directions), and push her around. I stuff a bunch of clothes with words on them in my hoodie. I grab bibs, and formula. That is all I can fit in my hoodie, so I grab a giant cart with wheels on it, and push it around grabbing things like, baby food (I did more research on the computers here), a crib that you put together, bottles, diapers, baby wipes, a blanket, a stuffed cat, some toys, and some other baby stuff. Once I got everything, I pushed the cart, and the stroller out the door, and take out the thing that kept the doors open.

I walk down the street, and into the Slender woods, with everything that I'll need. Ariana, starts to tic more, as we walk. "Are you hungry baby girl?", I ask her quietly. Once I reach the door, of the mansion, I think on who can help me. The only person with enough arms, is Slender. I sigh, and Ariana starts to whimper. I knock on the door, and Jeff answers. "Can y-yo-you get Sl-Slender?" Jeff nods his head, and smirks, seeing Ariana. "Oh Slendy! Toby has something you should see!", he yells in a voice, that sounds like I'm in trouble. Maybe I am, but I don't care. Ariana needs me. Slendy appears in front of the door, seeing all the baby stuff I have, and the stroller, with Ariana in it. "Toby, explain. Now." I can tell he's mad. "He-help me bring th-this stu-ff up t-to my room, an-and I w-will tell yo-you.", I tell him. I take Ariana, out of her stroller, and Slendy takes everything up to my room, and teleports back. I take the formula, and the bottle out of my hoodie pocket, and look at the directions on the the back of the formula package. I follow the instructions, and make sure the liquid comes out of the bottle, just like the instructions say. When it does leak out, I hold int in Ariana's mouth, as she holds it with her small hands, and closes her eyes. I smile under my mask. Slendy clears his throat as I look up at him. He has his arms crossed, waiting for an explanation. "She wa-was left I-in a bask-basket in m-my fav-favorite alley. So I b-brought her he-here. If you do-don't like I-it, oh we-well.", I tell him, and turn my attention back to Ariana.

After a few of me feeding her, she stops. I take the bottle out of her mouth, and put it on the counter. I walk upstairs, and look at the things that she needs. I need help, but who do I ask. Slendy is probably mad at me, Masky won't help me, Hoodie is on a hunt, Jeff and BEN are to busy playing games. Maybe L.J can help me. "Let's go find L.J baby girl.", I whisper to her. I walk up to the third floor, and walk down the hall till I find the black and white, striped door. I knock on his door, and look at the sleeping baby in my arms. Soon L.J opens the door, and waves at me. "What ya need Toby?", he asks. "Can y-you help m-me w-with some-something?", I ask him. He nods his head, and looks into my arms. His eyes widen and his smile grows bigger. "And who is this cutie!", he whisper yells, noticing that she's asleep. "I'll te-tell yo-you later.", I tell him. He nods, and follows me to my room. We put the crib together in no time, while Ariana is asleep in her stroller. I wipe the sweat of my forehead, and look at the crib. It's a light pink, with stars on it. Above it, is one of those things the have the little figures hanging on it that goes around in circles, and plays a song. I thank L.J, and tell him, that I'll tell him about Ariana tomorrow.

I pick her up, and change her clothes and her diaper. I put her in the little onesie that has the sentence, 'Daddy's Little Girl', on it. I put her in the crib, and put the blanket on her, and wind up the music. I made sure, I got a big crib, so when she ticks, she won't hurt her head. I take off my goggles, and mouth mask, and put up my hatchets. I walk to my door, and find Slendy outside waiting for me. I frown at him, and tic occasionally. "Toby, why did you keep that.. That thing?", he asks me. I get mad, when he calls my daughter a thing. "For your information, she's not a thing. She's my daughter.", I tell him without a single stutter. He sighs and rubs his forehead. "Toby, I don't want that thi- that baby, getting in the way of your killing." I shrug, and say, "She is my daughter. She is now my family. And family comes first. Isn't that what you taught us?", I ask, anger laced in my voice. When I'm angry, I don't stutter. He nods his head. "Yes, I did teach all of you children that family comes first." I calm down after a few minutes of silence. "So ca-can I ke-keep her?", I ask him. He thinks about it for a minute before answering. "Yes. Yes you can keep her."
