The Killer In Me (Jeff the Killer) COMPLETED

Chapter Twenty-One

(Time Skip)

*2 weeks later*

Jeff's POV

I sigh and sit up from my bed, stretching my back and yawning. Looking around, I take in my surroundings. The small cabin is cozy yet still doesn't feel like home, even though I've been here for what? Two weeks now? I don't know, I've lost track of time.

The past two weeks have been me constantly attempting to even get close to the Underworld but it never works. I've been taking my anger out on my victims, leaving even more gruesome scenes behind than usual.

Ever since that night, I haven't returned to the Slender mansion. I left and never told anyone where I was going, though I assume they all know why I left.

I can't help but feel a little bit guilty for leaving. Especially Sally. I know what she's like when I leave sometimes, and knowing that I didn't even say goodbye to her makes things worse.

God, I'm such a dick.

As much as I wanted to find out why Skylar had been taken by Lord Zalgo -other than her being his daughter- I left before Slendy could tell me anything.

I'm a coward, I know. I'm a stubborn, self-concerned coward.

I can't help but have a slight bit of hate towards Skylar. I mean, can you blame me? Look at what she's done to me. What she's turned me into. In EJ's words, I'm going soft.

Fucking oath, I'm going soft!

Just at the thought of this, I jump up from the small-framed bed and throw on my hoodie rather roughly and grab my knife also.

Running out into the evening light, I head towards the small suburban town, hunting for my next kill.

*~*~*~*

I run towards the shelter of the forest, barely breaking a sweat nor panting for breath, I stop behind a tree and wipe my bloody knife on my hoodie.

Fucking cops. If it weren't for that little bitch of a teenager hiding in her closet, I would've been able to get more enjoyment out of my kill. But no, she just had to call the police.

I made sure to kill her in the most painful way possible though, so I guess I got my revenge in a way. My anger built up after seeing her deep blue eyes. They reminded me too much of Skylar.

Thinking of her made me hesitate to kill the teen. But no one is allowed to live. Once I choose my victim, there's no turning back.

Taking off in another direction, I look for another house to attack.

I need to release my anger.

I need to find more victims.

And this time, I won't go so easy.

Skylar's POV

"Come on, Sky. Just one more!" Shadow whines and nudges me gently in the ribs with his elbow.

I sigh and nod, "Alright, fine. Just one more." He claps his hands excitingly and jogs ahead.

My God he can be so childish. I think to myself.

"Hey! I am not childish. Not always." He whines again. I chuckle and continue following him. Stupid mind reading.

"Mind reading is cool and you know it Skylar! Now that you can do it too, you can't help but admit that it's pretty freaking awesome." Shadow adds, slowing his pace to walk beside me.
