Ticci Toby X Reader

Chapter 3

"I asked you *tic* a qu-question! Answer!"
The murderer yells at my face behind its mouth guard. I shriek but it just muffles behind its gloved hand. It pushes harder on my mouth as it leans closer.
"R-Right. I'll remo-remove my hand. If you scream *tic* I'll kill you."
I nod quickly to its words, I didn't want to die, I still have a life to live. I begin to breath heavy as the hand is removed from my face. Gulping, I prepare to speak.
"Y-You called me an idiot.. I just said that I wasn't but I didn't mean to actually say it. It was an accident."
The killer remained silent but his head seemed to tilt a little. To the side and back slightly. As if to be a bit shocked.
"I didn't *tic* say that out loud."
I was confused, raising one brow as I stare at the figure, trying to understand what it was trying to tell me.
"You- *tic* You read my mind?"
My eyes slammed open as my mind instantly takes me back to the scene in my house, where I thought I heard Su talk bad about me. It all made sense.
I.. I can read.. minds ?!

"Toby come on! "
A voice called within the trees. It sounded deep and raspy. The killer in front of me turned and ran in the direction of the voice. Not bothering to look back.
So the killer was male..
As I stand in shock over what just happened, I hear a groaning sound by my feet. Lyrisa was coming back to the now. I look down to her as her eyes look up at me tiredly.
"Yeah now you wake up."
I scoff as I help her to her feet. She was shaky, my guess what that she remembers why she fainted.
"W-We're still alive?!"
She stutters, still a little scared.
"For now. Let's get back to my place, and quick!"

Ticci Toby's POV
I manage to catch up with Masky. After calling back to me, he had started to leave without me so I had to run after him.
"What took you so long?"
He nags as we continue to run deeper into the forest, within the mist and fog that most people would get lost in and eventually meet their end.
"Sh-Shut up Masky. I m-made my kill."
I argue angrily. He always rushes me and says I take too long and it's very irritating. He's always so quick with his kills and expects me to be like that too. He's very impatient.
"Yeah? How many?"
I pause for a moment of silence but continue running. Shit..
"Let me guess. Only one?"
"If Slender- *tic* Slender asks. I made my quota."
Masky scoffs but he didn't have time to reply as the Mansion came into view and we had reached the door finally. I open it and step inside, Masky following In behind me and closing the door. I quickly try and run for my room but Slender appears in front of me, blocking my path so I stop instantly.

"Toby. Masky. Are your missions complete?"
He asks with his static like voice, despite having no mouth or no face at all.
"Well, I did. But a certain someone. Which I won't mention the name of *cough* Toby Rogers *cough* only killed one."
He chuckles, walking away, leaving me alone with a now angry Slender man.
"Masky! You *tic* asshole!"
"That's enough."
Slender orders angrily, causing my body to freeze and tense up as the tall man stares down at me menacingly.
"Only, one, kill?"
"You've got t-to understand! I was- *tic* was distracted by- "
"By what."
"Um. A um.. a girl."
I cower my head away after telling him, afraid he may strike me down again or punish me.
"A girl!"
He growls, leaning down so his face was directly in front of me. His tendrils flailing behind him sharply.
"N-Not like that! Sh-She can read minds! I was jus-just interested!"
There was a pause as he slowly leans back to his original stance, but still staring down at me from his tall nature.
"Don't let this happen again."
"I w-won't!"
"Tomorrow there are no missions for you. So I suggest you use your time to practise your technique."
With that, he teleports away, leaving me alone in the hall.

I rush to my room and lock the door, heading over to my mirror to stare at my reflection as I remove my goggles and mouth guard. Revealing my dark eyes and scarred cheek.
Hmm.. How is it possible for her to mind read.. she looked human to me..
I pull down my hood, my scruffy brown hair swishing as it brushes out the fabric, being released to the air and no longer being hidden.
A skill like that would be useful to have around.. but if she saw me again, she would head for the hills.
I pick up my gear and head over to my wardrobe to stash it away but I freeze as soon as I place them down.
Unless..I don't wear them.. She doesn't know my face.. She wouldn't know it was me.. Fuck, she heard Masky call my name though..
I pace around my room trying to think of what I should do and if I should even go to her again in the first place.

I head over to Kagekao's room as he's the only one who won't tell on me to Slender. Well, him and EJ. But Jack isn't back yet.
I knock on his door as it opens, allowing me to walk inside.
"Hey Ka-Kagekao."
"Toby?"
His original language is Japanese, so because of his language barrier, he tends to say only a few words. To his kills however, he talks in full blown Japanese.
"S-Suggest me a m-male name."
"Tomo."
"That's a Japanese *tic* name isn't it?"
"Yes."
I sigh and walk out his room, back to mine and In front of the mirror.
Tomo..Hm. Do I look like a Tomo enough to be believable?
