I refused to believe that what had just happened was in fact real, it must have been a figment of my imagination, right? BEN is not real. Nobody entered my room. Now that I've clarified that, sleep is calling! I put away my laptop, turn off my light and clamber into bed, wondering when exactly I stared to lose my sanity...

I woke up to the irritating sound of my alarm clock, I groaned, as my whole body erupted in pain. I wouldn't have to deal with this shit if I was a fish! I poked my alarm, and the annoying noise was disappeared. My mood brightened slightly when I realised that today was Saturday, my parents would be gone the entire day, and I could go to work! Most people hate their jobs, but I am almost certain that I have the best fucking job in the universe! I work at an adventure camp, I'm essentially the guinea pig they put on all of the walls and equipment before they decide it's safe for everyone else. Basically I just get to spend 3 hours fucking around, then the rest of the day laughing at the useless kids. It's great!

BEN's Pov
I left Finley's room with an extreme feeling of confusion, how did she get the mark? The mark is given by slender himself, what makes her so special... I'm going to have to ask him about this... Maybe I shouldn't mention that I was about to kill her.

As I walk through the forest, I'm met with a bleached white face, which specks of red decorating it. He turns towards me and grins, "Hiya BEN! Fun night? Wait a second... I see no blood... Tch disappointing" Jeff exclaims twiddling his knife as we walk. I roll my eyes, "I was about to, but this girl seemed different..." I mumble, still trying to figure out the situation. Jeff's eyes seemed to widen, if that was even possible. "Is wittle Benny in love?! Did she make your cold dead heart double in size?" He shouts mockingly, whilst skipping around me. "No you fucktard. I mean, she had the mark of a proxy." I grumbled. Suddenly Jeff drops the act, "really? But only slender..."
I cut him off "I know that!"
"That's weird... Anyway, was she hot?" He asks, a lopsided grin etched upon his face. I feel the heat rise to my cheeks, "uh sure guess you could say that. Let's just hurry up" I grumble, pulling my hat down further to hide the blood rushing to my cheeks. Jeff giggles, before also quickening his pace.

Eventually we reached slender's mansion. "Honey, I'm home!" Jeff screeches as we enter the building, before running upstairs to his room. Why am I friends with this weirdo? I closed the door behind me, and began to walk towards Slender's office. As I walk past the kitchen I notice Hoodie and Masky sitting at the dining table with an awestruck expression on their faces, as I looked to where the duo's attention directed, there was a single cheesecake. They don't even seem to be blinking... Uh, I'll just leave them to it...

I found myself at the door of slender's office, I knocked on the door, and he was quick to open the door. "You wished to ask me about something, child?" His attention still on the paperwork in front of him. "Uh yeah. So I was just out killing tonight, when I discovered this girl, who seems to have the mark of a proxy. Anything you wanted to say about that Slender?" I explained, waiting for his reply. He brought his head up, "I've been waiting for this for a long time. How old did this girl look?" He asked.
"She looked around 16ish" I replied, my eyebrow arching in confusion.
"Hm. Well then I suppose I'd better explain. It was long time ago, and I was searching for someone to become my successor. I had discovered a child with a great amount of potential, I put the mark on her, but made sure that it would only be visible when she was ready to begin training. I would like you, Jeff and Toby to go and extract her please. You may leave now BEN" he stater, before shoving me out the room and slamming the door in front of me.

Well that's weird... Guess I'd better go tell Toby and Jeff.

Later that day...
Jeff, Toby and I had reached Finley's house. We were standing in a park nearby, unsure of what to do. There was shouting emanating from the house, most likely her parents. "Slender didn't tell us what to do about her parents! Do we kill them or nah?" Jeff asks, twirling his knife. "Y-y-yeah" Toby agrees with a nod. "I see no reason why we can't, I mean she's never gonna see them again anyway. Okay let's go" I stated, as I began to walk towards an open window.

The three of us clamber through the window, closing it behind us. "Finley! Get us more beer!" We hear someone slur from the next room. "We've uh run out of beer dad" I hear her mumble in reply. Suddenly I hear a crash, "show time" Jeff says with a grin.

The three of us take out our weapons and walk towards the commotion. Their attention turns towards us, Finley obviously recognised me, and her eyes widened in fear. "You're not real!" She exclaims, before sprinting out of the house. Meanwhile her parents stare at us their mouths ajar. "I'll get the girl, Jeff you do what you do, and Toby go pack some of her shit" I state, before sprinting after Finley. "Why do I get the boring job" I hear Toby mumble as I exit the house.

Finley's PoV
Fuck, fuck, fuckity-fuck. He's not real! Why is he in my house! I feel sort of bad for abandoning my parents, but they sort of had it coming...
If I can just get to a tree, I can climb up it and he'll never find me... Right? Nobody thinks to look up! I quickly clamber up the tallest tree in my sight and hide behind a large branch. To my left I see BEN sprinting this way, a grin etched upon his face, and black dripping from his blood red eyes. Why did this imaginary friend have to be so creepy? Stupid brain.

I try and quieten my breathing so that I don't alert him to my location. Maybe if I throw something in the other direction, he'll follow it and I can go in the opposite direction. As I twist my head, I notice a large Apple growing on the branch above the one I was currently sitting on, I stand up and reach towards it, but I can't quite reach. As I walk down the branch, closer to the apple, I hear a crack, and I descend towards the ground, head first.

My vision begins to blur as I lie motionless on the leaves. As I fade out of consciousness, I see the creepy as fuck grin of the little elf towering above me.
