Slenderman's Daughter, Night Slender

Past Memory II

[...Continued]

Once all of us stepped out of the mansion, I turned around. "What are we gonna play?"

"Who can fall asleep the fastest," Jeff says.

"Rejected," I reply. "Next."

"Tag," Laughing Jack suggests.

"Possibly. Next."

Hoodie looks at Masky. "Hide-and-seek?" Masky asks, nodding to Hoodie.

"In the pile. Anything else?" I look to everyone, seeing if there were anymore suggestions. No one spoke up. "Okay. How about hide-and-seek combined with tag? It's self explanatory. Seeker finds the hides then try to tag them. Once they do, the hides are now part of the seekers."

There were a couple nods and Ben jumped in the air. "Not it!"

There was a wave of 'not it's, and in the end, Jeff had lost. He was too tired to notice or call out. That is until everyone was running in all directions.

"Count to thirty!" I yell out, running into the forest.

"Fuck," I hear from Jeff. "I'm after you, brat." I giggle as I swerve to the right.

"Try it." I stop at the edge of the forest, right next to the well. There were trees here that are hard to climb for the unexperienced, but if you know what you're doing and where to place your foot, you can climb it easily.

I reached the top of the tree just as Jeff rushed through the bushes. "I know you're here," he sang tauntingly. "Come out. I won't hurt you...much."

I looked around and saw Masky in another tree. I smiled and gave a small wave then pointed down to where Jeff was. He nodded and put a finger to his mouth, shushing me. That's when I look down.

Jeff was looking up at me and he smiled mischievously. I held his gaze until he tried to climb the tree. I felt calm, knowing it would be hard for him to climb it. And like I thought, he had trouble. All the while, I laughed at his stupidity. That is, until he took out his knife.

He tried to throw it at the me, trying to startle me. Thing is, his aim sucks. It wizzed passed me about 3 feet to the right. I stuck my tongue out and pushed my lower skin around my eye down with my finger, showing the under redness. He flicked me off and ran in the general direction of his knife.

I took this as a chance to move to a different location. It took maybe 15 seconds to reach the ground. Once I did I was touched on the neck. "Got you." I turned around in suprise and punched Jeff in the jaw. He bent over in pain.

"Sorry," I said. "You suprised me." I smiled mischievously.

"Sure." He replied through his teeth.

"Well, I know where Masky is," I say. "Ima go get him."

"Hey," Jeff inturupts my jogging. "Have you ever been to the human realm?"

I turn towards him. "No, Dad says not to. It's dangerous."

Jeff laughs. "Well, he's lying. It's actually really fun. The humans are all really fun." He pauses then looks to the well. "I bet you'd have fun. They'd really like you. They even have dogs like Smile, even cats."

"Really?" I gasped out. "But won't Dad be mad?"

"Pfft. No, he just doesn't want you to have fun. C'mon, I dare you." He replies. I gulp nervously before looking at the well. Then I nod.
