How I, Primrose, Came To Be

Slender

I stood there, staring up at this strange man, and he (kind of) stared back. "Are you not afraid?" he asks me. 

"Should I be?" I reply. He chuckles slightly.

"Indeed you should be, child. You have every reason to be afraid." I shrug and he laughs. "You, my child, are quite strange." he tells me, but in my mind, that's a compliment. 

"So, who are you?" I ask him. He seems to grow taller and he towers over me.

"I," he says"am Slenderman."

"Why are you here?" I question.

"Why don't you let me explain before you ask any more questions, child?" he says "I am here for you. I have come to make you one of us. You will be a Creepypasta. But, before that, I am going to test you. I will torment you for a while, and see what you do, see how you react. If I feel you are worthy, I will take you away from here to live with the rest of the pastas and I."

I stand there, taking the information in for a second. I say,"Well any other life I could have would be better than what I just came from, so okay."

"Perfect." Slenderman says "You'll be hearing from me, or the ones I send after you soon enough." and with that, he disappears in the blackness that surrounded me a minute ago. I'm left standing there alone in the forest. I let out a deep breath and wonder what I just got myself into. My stomach rumbles, telling me I need food. I have no idea which direction to go to get back to civilization, so, I just start walking. After a minute, I see something move out of the corner of my eye. I turn to see that it's a deer. Well, if I'm a cat, I might as well try to hunt like one. I crouch low and sneak behind it. It knows I'm there, but not my intentions. At the moment, it doesn't fear me. Before it can react, I pounce. I have a strong hold on it as it tries, in vain, to escape. 

After I kill the deer, I make a fire and cook the meat. Yeah, I'm a cat, but I am not eating raw meat! I'm still half human! 

When I've eaten my fill, I sit there thinking for a while. "This Slender dude is doing a good job of tormenting me!" I say to no one besides the forest around me. 

"Don't worry" a voice says from behind me. I wheel around to see a boy ab out my age standing among the tress. He had shaggy black hair, and white, leathery skin. He wore a white hoodie stained with what looked like blood, and black dress pants. But the creepiest thing about him was his face. His eyelids looked burnt off, and he had long, deep slashes on each side of his mouth, turning it into a permanent smile. "The fun is just about to begin!" the boy says as he lunges toward me with the kitchen knife I just realized he had been holding.

I roll out of the way just in time. He flies past me, almost into the burning fire. I grab a rather large stick that was on the ground beside me and try to stand, but, before I can, the boy is on top of me, trying to cut me with his weapon. I block the knife with the stick and kick him in the gut. He rolls off me and I stand quickly. I back away as he stands as well. 

"It'll be such a waste to hurt a pretty girl like yourself." he says, looking for a chance to lunge again. 

"I won't be the one getting hurt here." I reply to him "But good luck." In a flash, he steps forward and jabs at me with the knife, but he's too late. Before he knows what happened, I'm behind him. I kick him to the ground while swiping the knife from his hands. I hold him down, and I put the knife to his throat. "I agree." I say "This is fun." He laughs and grabs the knife from my hand. He then rolls over and flips me to the ground. Instead of using his advantage, like I thought he would, he stands and backs away, a grin on his face.

"Good fight!" he says, still grinning "Name's Jeff by the way. Jeff the Killer."

I stand up cautiously and take a couple steps back, not trusting him at all. "Primrose" I say "Why didn't you kill me or something?" He laughs at this.

"I wasn't sent to kill you, just to test your combat abilities." he replies "Slendy's gonna send others too, so just be prepared. Talk to ya later!" He winks at me before he runs off into the woods.
