Slender's New Proxies

Chapter 22 (The Garden Of Death & Illusion)

Dariele POV
Ej said he wanted to take me somewhere special. So I pulled on some jeans, a white shirt, red flannel, and some red high top converses. I met him outside, "Are you ready to go?" He asked I nod smiling. He grabbed my hand and we started walking. "Where are we going exactly?" I asked curiously "you will see when we get there." He said I groan "can you please tell me??" He picked me up bridal style and started carrying me. " I can walk on my own, you know" I said resting my head on his chest. " I just wanted to carry my baby." He said I giggle blushing. He carried me all the way to this gated area. I think it was a garden? He slowly set me down. "A garden?" I asked looking over at him. "Not just any garden the garden of death and illusion." He said as he grabbed my hand and began walking inside. The walls were tall and had black flowers or roses coming out of them. I stayed close because it was creepy around here. "Stay close, I don't want you to get lost and than I can't find you." He said warning me. "Has anyone ever gotten lost and like died?" I asked looking behind me just in case someone was following us. "Yes that's why it's called the garden of death." He said turning left and than right. "Where are we going exactly?" I said trying to keep up with him. "You sure ask a lot of question babe." He said looking back at me I give a nervous laugh. He turned around but stopped. "Wait..." He let go of my hand pulling out his scalpel. "What do you mean wait?" I asked he put his hand over my mouth. "Shhh." He hushed slowly. "I need you to run the opposite way, away from me. Don't say anything just run." He said thick fog rolled in. "Here take this" he said pulling out my knife handing it to me. "And this." He handed me a flashlight i took it confused. "And this." He said I looked up at him before i could say anything his lips were on mine, he placed something cool around my neck. He pulled away and looked at me "Run." As he said that you heard a screech come from the fog, I took off running no sprinting the opposite way. I took unknown turns to who knows where. I kept running until I was tired I tripped over...I don't even know really but i felt a sharp pain in my leg. All you could hear through out the entire maze my ear piercing scream. I huff as I look down at my leg and see my knife in my leg. "JESUS CHRIST!" I scream rolling over on my back. I wrap my shaking hand around the handle of the knife and slowly take it out, screaming bloody murder. Kids this is why your parents said don't run with sharp object. I throw the knife to the side, I look and see the knife went all the way through my leg. I rip my my flannel and wrap it around my leg. "You better run its coming for you." I heard something or someone whisper in my ear. I quickly got up grabbing the knife and I limped ran. It started raining? I looked and saw it was blood rain? What kind of sh*t is that blood f*cking rain! I heard the screech again but closer. I ran well limped through blood rain, I felt something around my neck. I look and see a necklace that had the operator symbol/or symbol with the X though the circle around the chain. I couldn't see where I was going I just knew I wanted to get out of here and than find Ej. "Its coming run! Run!" I heard a voice scream just as I got to what I think was the middle of the maze because there was a huge well in the center and bird baths around. I saw a figure in the distance, me being the dummy I am I called out at it. "hey can you help me?!" The figure turned around and it was some type of deformed monster, like one of those monsters that you only see in movies or read in books. It growled and stood up, it was as tall as slender man and we all know he's freaking tall. I take a few steps back stumbling. "Run before he gets you!" A voice said I took off running.."left!" The voice said I took a left the monster chased after me. "right!" The voice said again I took a sharp right. "Keep running straight!" I ran faster, I saw the gate where we walked in. All the pastas where standing there yelling, I leaped just as the monster took a swipe at my feet I landed on top of Masky. The monster seemed to stop instantly when it came to the gate. "This beast is forbidden to leave no matter what." Slender said masky lifted me up bridal style. " the voice that guided me out, who or what was that?" I asked exhausted. " the lost soul of Eliane." Slendy said " thank you Eliane" I say out loud. "Where's Ej?" I said masky passed me to someone I look and see his blue mask. "YOU! YOU  OH YOU! YOUR GOING TO FEEL MY WRATH WHEN I GET BETTER!" I yelled at him furiously. "I'm sorry honey bun, slendy said it was a test but look on the bright side your not dead!" He said cheerful I growled at him. "Shut it!" I snap everyone laughed. We started walking home well they did I was carried. "What happened to your leg?" Sally asked everyone looked at me curiously "Sally this is what happens when you run with sharp object, you know how slendy tells you to not run with sharp objects?" I asked she nodded slowly. "Be a smart kid and listen to him." I said everyone stifled laughs or chuckles.
