"Hello child. I am Slenderman. You are Lilia, are you not?" I nodded and this man motioned for me to sit in a mahogany colored arm-chair in front of a cherry-wood desk. I sat, and he walked over and sat behind the desk.
He examined me from behind the desk, leaning onto it and then spoke, "So, Lilia. Toby told me your story and why he brought you here. As my proxy, he will be punished severally for his actions. But, I will allow you to stay with us as long as you make yourself useful. What are you good at?" I wanted to speak my mind but, I remembered what Toby told me.
"Cooking, cleaning, those types of things but, may I speak freely for a moment Slenderman?" He leaned back in his chair and nodded. "I will take Toby's punishment in his stead." Slenderman leaned forward.
"I can not allow that, Lilia. Toby needs to learn his lesson."
"Please, Slenderman. I refuse to see Toby get hurt for saving me. I can take every possible punishment you could dish out to me, just please let me take it for him." Tears streamed down my face.
He got up and picked me up to look into his non-existent eyes. "Are you willing to risk your life for him? Are you sure you can take it?" I nodded. He set me down and walked over to the door.
"Follow me." I followed him as he walk out of the room, down the hall, down the stairs and out the door. We walked to a concrete wall with chains attached to it.
He pointed to a spot by the wall and I stood in that spot. He turned me around to face the wall and chained my arms and legs up. The chains pulled me so I couldn't move. I heard a whip crack. I gulped and waited for the lashing to begin.
