I stayed quiet as Toby drove, and Lexi had fallen asleep in the back seat. My arms were crossed, and I was glaring out the window.

"What kind of music do you like?" Toby randomly asked. I stared at him for a couple seconds, shocked from how out of the blue his question was.

"Um..Pop mostly," I replied after staring at Toby. Toby twitched and I heard his neck crack. I cringed as a shiver went up my spine.

"Pop? Like, as in, Pop?"

"That's what I said."

"You like One Direction, don't you?" He shook his head."And I thought you were cool."

I glared at him for a while."I don't like One Direction. Just because I like Pop doesn't mean I like them."

Toby rolled his eyes and mumbled a "sure you don't" and pushed his foot on the gas pedal a little harder, causing us to speed up. I sighed and glanced back at my daughter, then went back to staring out of the tinted window.

We were at Slender's Mansion. I woke up Lexi, and she smiled when she saw me.
"Hi, Mommy!" Lexi giggled, hugging me as I unclipped her carseat.
"Hi, baby." I said, sighing softly. I walked into the bastard's mansion with Toby following. He still seemed pissed off because he thought I liked One Direction.
"HELLO?! Is the bastard home?!"
"Mommy, what's a bastard?"
"Hey, don't say that." I said, glaring at Toby who started to laugh his ass off.
"I'm in my office." Slender's voice boomed. I rolled my eyes and walked into his office with my daughter still in my arms.
"Hello, Twitch. It's been a while, dear."
"Don't call me that." I snapped. He didn't seem phased.
"Toby, take her daughter elsewhere for a bit." Slender said, leaning forward in his chair.
"No! He's not taking her anywhere!"
"C'mon, you can trust me. I don't bite!" Toby said.
"Mommy, lemme go wiff him!" Lexi giggled. I sighed and set her down. Toby grabbed her had and lead her somewhere else.
"Okay, now,"
"Yes?"
"I need your help. Even though you are retired, I need a recruit."
"No. I'm not a proxy anymore. Jeff fucked that up." I crosse my arms.
"Don't worry about him." Slender tilted his head up a bit, towards mine."I need you for this."
"Who exactly are we going against?"
"You'll find out when the time comes."
"So you mean, I don't even know who I'm up against?!" I shouted.
"Will you help me or not?" He quizzed. I huffed.

It's a risky decision...

"Fine. I'll help you." I looked down, then up again."But I swear on my daughter's life, if I have to work with Jeff, I'm never coming back."

"That won't be a problem. Thank you."
"Yeah." I spat. I growled and stomped out of the room.
