Slaughter and Savior

Chapter 3: Mornings

-The next morning-
Jack's P.O.V.
I opened my eyelids, then got out of bed. I got my blue mask and bandages from my nightstand drawer. I wrapped the bandages around my arms. I moved around my room a bit before finding the door. After getting out of my room, I proceeded to head downstairs to the kitchen. I opened the fridge.

"What do I feel like eating for breakfast today?" I asked myself. I took out 3 jars from the fridge then placed each of them on the countertop. I opened the first jar then sniffed it.

"Mayo." Why do we even have mayo?

I covered the jar back up then put it back in the fridge. I opened the second jar to sniff it. "Ben's salsa." I opened the last jar. I took one last sniff. "Ah, yes. This is it." I got a spoon from the dishwasher, picked up the jar from the counter and sat down at the living room sofa. Before I could take one bite, Hoodie came down the stairs with Toby.

"Hi, Jack!" Hoodie exclaimed. "Eating your meat spread?" Toby asked. I groaned.
"Yes. And shouldn't you be with Masky?" Hoodie just laughed. "Yeah, about that. Masky said he's sleeping in for the day or at least until Slender wakes him up, whichever comes first. So instead of hanging out with him, I decided to stick with Toby for today." I shoved a spoonful of human meat spread in my mouth.

"So, did you hear about Ben?" Hoodie said. I raised an eyebrow.
"No."
"Would you like me to tell you about it?"

I was gobbling away at my spread. "Well, under normal circumstances I would say 'I don't care' but since it's about Ben, I'm listening." He clapped his hands then crashed onto the sofa next to me. "Awesome!" I groaned again. "So, last night at the dinner table..." I kept eating. "Mhmmm..." "Slender made him eat a plate of endless spaghetti all night!" I suddenly spit out all the meat in my mouth and started laughing really hard. But while I was laughing, I hadn't realized that I spat on Hoodie.

"Yuck, spit spread!" he said, trying to wipe my breakfast off of his jacket.

"Whoops, sorry." I said. "I'll go get a napkin or something to wipe that off with." I hurried back to the counter which was where the napkins were. "This was a brand new jacket!" Toby laughed. "Really? You've been wearing the same jacket for 12 years already!" I came back with the napkins and offered some to Hoodie. "Thanks," he said. Then, we heard a rumbling noise coming from upstairs. After that, we saw Ben tumbling down the stairs. His jacket was covered in spaghetti sauce. "Ow." he muttered. Me and Toby rushed over to help him while Hoodie was still cleaning his jacket. "Dude, are you okay?" Toby asked him. He didn't respond. "Come on, let's get you on the sofa." I got his left arm while Toby got his right. Together, we lifted him up and lowered him onto the sofa.

"I know Slender served him endless spaghetti but I never imagined it to be this bad." Masky had joined in. "Hey, look at that." Toby pointed to a sticky note on his chest. It read:

MEETING AT THE LOUNGE
12:00PM
BE THERE!

"What does it say?" I asked them. Toby and Masky exchanged glances. They told me what it said. We already knew who wrote the message and sent Ben tumbling down the stairs.
"Slender."

Suddenly, all the Creepypastas in the mansion were at the living room. All of them, except for Slender. "What happened?" Clockwork asked. "Yeah," Jeff continued. "We heard Ben's screams followed by seeing him fall downstairs." I began to tell everyone what happened. "Me, Toby and Hoodie were talking, when we saw Ben fall down the stairs. After putting him on the sofa, we found this attached to him." I held up the note for the others to examine.

"We don't know if he was unconscious before or the fall from the stairs knocked him out." Toby added.

"But what we do know is that the note is from Slender." Hoodie finished.
