Sonic and the Slenderman

Chapter 7

    Slenderman, Slenderman, all the children try to run,

    Oh, God, no! Not again! I tried to run away, but my feet wouldn't move. I turned and saw a silhouette coming towards me. My blood ran cold. Shit. I tried to run again but still my legs wouldn't budge. Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit! Move damn it!

    Slenderman, Slenderman, to him it's part of the fun,

    No, no, no, no, no! Run! I finally got my moving, but I was slow. No! Damn it! I hate going slow! I turned around again and there he was, towering over me. I looked up into his face, which he didn't have. Suddenly, it split into a wide smile, almost splitting his head in half it seemed like.

    His hands came out from behind him and grasped my throat, hard. He was crushing my wind pipe, and I could just barely breath.

    I let out a scream.

==================================================

    I sat bolt upright and screamed my head off. Shadow jumped off the floor and rushed towards me. My eyes were closed tight, my mouth was open in a terrified wail.

    "Sonic?"He grabbed my shoulders firmly and shook me. When I wouldn't shut up, he shook me more violently. "Sonic! Sonic wake up!" I opened my eyes, snapped my jaws shut, and looked at him.

    He stared back at me with his ruby red eyes, concern and fear clouding his gaze. "Sonic, what happened?" He asked gently. You'd figure he wouldn't be gentle with me, but for some reason, he was.

    "I- I- I..............." I stuttered. "Slenderman, he- he got me and started strangling me and I couldn't move and-" he cut me off.

    "Sonic, it's gonna be fine. We'll find him and kill his ass. You'll be okay then." he smiled. Usually he didn't smile around me unless I made a hilarious joke. Weird.

    "Alright, if you say so Shadow." I got up out of bed and put my shoes on. Then I grabbed my gloves from the bedside table and headed out the door. I walked downstairs, and no one else was up, so I decided to fix me something to eat.

    Shadow followed me to the kitchen, where he sat down at the table. I want to the fridge, grabbed some hot dog weenies, mustard, and the chilli. Then I went to the cabinet and got the hot dog buns.

    "Hey, Shadow, you like chilli dogs?" I asked him.

    "Wha-huh? Yeah, yeah, I like them." he sounded off. As in off in space.

    "Okay." I replied. I put the weenies in the microwave, along with the chilli.

    When they were done, I did my most famous, Put-it-together-and-get-ready stuff. I put the weenie on the buns, then the chilli on top of that, then I put the mustard on top of that, then the person can put what ever else.

    "Here ya go." I told Shadow. He picked it up and took a bite absent-mindedly. Suddenly he perked up. He looked at me, then his chilli dog.

    "What?" I asked.

    He swallowed the bite in his mouth quickly and looked at me with surprise in his eyes.

    "Sonic, I didn't know you were such a good cook! These chilli dogs are amazing!" he took another bite.

    "Uh.... thanks, Shadow..." I said, blushing. I had never heard anyone give me so much praise for just a little chilli dog. I left the room to watch TV in the living room. I turned it to the news, were Sara Diamond was telling about children gone missing, and ufos being spotted and blah blah blah.......

    Then, an image that plopped up onto the screen caught my attention. A landscape, more like a picture of the woods, and, he was hard to make out, but, there, in the woods, was a figure, it looked like it was wearing a black suit, and it was slightly turned towards the camera, so you could make out a red tie. It's face was white, and I couldn't make out any features. But immediately, I realized who it was.

    Slenderman.

    "Oh shit." I heard Shadow say behind me.

    "What is it, Shadow?" I asked.

    "That's the woods beard our house. Out there." He pointed towards the window at the woods. "Look, you can clearly see the corner of the house at the side of the picture." he pointed out the side of the house to the right of the picture.

    "He's in these woods." he turned and looked at me with wide eyes. "We're gonna have to be careful at night."

    I gulped. "S- Shadow. T- tonight is when we go out there." I told him, my voice shaky.

    "We need to be prepared for anything, then." he murmured.

    We stared at each other, knowing that we were possibly going to die tonight.

Super long chapter. My hand aches from typing so much. Hope you liked and..... post what you thought about it in the comments. I liked how Sonic kept getting more and more uncomfortable with Shadow. Shadow's weird.
