Don't Look Back

Chapter 10

  I walked for the whole night. Passing buildings and beggars, cars and shops, it seemed like I never stopped walking. I had no idea where to go from here. My parents are still gone to who knows where, and the Tall Man, slender-man, hasn't given me those stupid little clues to his, games, that he played with me. At around 4:00 in the morning I stopped walking and collapsed in an old abandoned house that was behind some drug stores and such, I had fallen asleep on the dirty wooden floor and didn't wake up for a long time.

When I did wake up I woke with a jolt, I had a nightmare of some sort, I was trying to remember it because maybe Slender hid something in them. After a while of sitting on the floor and thinking I got up and checked my watch, 2:37. I got out of the house and walked around the town until I found than old coffee shop that wasn't that busy. I reached into my pockets and pulled out the cash that I had taken from my mom's closet, counting out 5 bucks or so so I could get a cup of coffee, I ordered and sat down in one of the beaten up chairs they had here. I heard a loud CLANG noise and looked behind the counter. The waiter was gone, and so was everyone else that was in here. I got out of my seat and walked around, inspecting the area behind the counter and other spots. Nothing. I started to back out of the shop when I saw some movement through the window of the 'employees only' door, I cautiously crept over to the door, ducking down so that nobody could look                 through the window and see me. I opened the door and saw blood on the walls, more blood trailed down the hallway, so I walked down it. The lights were flickering nonstop, and it was getting hard to see. I opened the door at the end of the hall and saw something no one should ever see. A man, lying on an old silver operating table. A tray full of bloodied tools was propped against the wall and the guy on the table was, gutted. A scalpel still was stabbed into his scarlet flesh, fresh blood dripped from the table to the floor, I fell on my back and crawled away. I realized something though, a little thing clicked in my brain and I questioned what was happening. This can't happen. The laws of everything just don't work like this. People can't just disappear and blood can't just appear, this was a hallucination. I got up and went to touch the man, his body got distorted and my hand went through him. I pulled my hand out and yelled out,
"You can come out now."
The image slowly faded and I was back inside that building with the people that were talking. Slender walked out from around a corner and stared at me for a bit, he walked back around the corner he came from and pulled a man into his place. He walked away as the man started talking.
"Names Rick, and it sounds like your looking a bit to far."
"So, sounds like I'm going to have to ask some questions."
He asked what I knew about Slender-man and any other things that might be important, I said no to all of his questions, as the Slender man had never given me answers for anything. After I answered all of his questions he walked off, most likely to get slender man, as Slender stormed over to my spot I could tell he was mad, he grabbed the collar of my shirt and threw me across the room, I hit the brick wall and a sharp pain shot up my spine, I landed on my side and I instantly felt searing hot pain leap into every one of my nerves, I had landed on a sharp piece of glass, as I tried to get myself to sit up, I saw the the piece of glass was deep into my arm, and the wound was gushing blood. I moved my hand around the spot on my arm and regretted it, I yelped in pain as spits filled my eyes. Slender and Rick walked over to me and grabbed me. The pulled me through a set of iron doors and out another set before I saw some letters above my head, they were right above the door and it was hard to make out, but I eventually read it.
