Guardian of the Proxy (Ben Drowned story)

Chapter 25

*ELISE'S P.O.V*

As I arrived to my house, slightly dizzy, I walked up to my room, only to see Ben on my bed. "What do you want," I grunted, closing the door behind me.

"Just to talk," he answered.

"I don't want to." I said bluntly. He sighed. "Whatever. What the fuck is wrong with you?"

"Nothing. Fuck off," I groaned, placing my sword on a small couch. "You never curse," he muttered under his breath.

"Well, now I do, asshat. Got a problem with that?"

He stood up from the bed and began to walk towards me. I walked backwards, getting farther from him. "You can tell me anything, Freckles," he said, grabbing a piece of my hair and twirling my hair around his finger. I felt how my cheeks were growing hot. I slapped his hand. "I have nothing to say,"

"Really? Why's your mood recently changed so much? What happened on Halloween night?" he questioned, crossing his arms and waiting for a response. I started to glare at him. I don't know why, but whenever something similar happens, I feel so angry. I want to punch him in the face so bad, but at the same time something tells me no. Should I tell him I've encountered The Twins or not?

"Nothing happened. Leave me alone. I need to study," I lied. He took that aback. He disappeared in a cloak of pixels, leaving me dumbfounded. I threw myself on my bed and picked up my phone. I began to text Taylor, Riley and Daniel in a group chat.

It's true, I do need to study. But who said I was gonna study?

I have a Calculus test. And I haven't studied for it.

.....

"Elise! I need to speak with you," called Marie. She was the one who made Brandon cheat on me. I glared at her as she walked closer to me. "I don't have time for you," I spat. "The preparatives for Thanksgiving? Our senior graduation? You missed both reunions!" she scolded.

"It's none of your business, is it? You don't know how busy I am. If you're here to scold me on my Presidency, why don't you take the job instead? I'm sure not only Brandon would fall, but also the Football team," I sneered. She gasped, adjusting her glasses. "Are you calling me a slut?"

"I don't need to call you a slut, everyone knows you are. And I can ruin your reputation more than it is. Who would everyone believe, the Almighty President of the Senior Class, or just the Secretary of the President?" I narrowed my eyes as a smirk played on my lips. She scoffed and turned around, starting to walk away from me. That whore got what she deserved.

"Elise? What're you doing here?"

I turned around to see Daniel, holding a soccer ball in his arms. "Why aren't you in the cafeteria?" he asked.

"I needed to go to the restroom," I lied.

"Oh," he started, "well, Riley and Taylor were looking for you. They said you vanished without trace,"

"And then, she fell to the floor and the other one started to kick her. I was so mad at her!" Riley spoke. She was talking about some series she was watching. "Riley, it's just a show," commented Taylor.

"A show that could ruin my life!" she gasped.

*BEN'S P.O.V*

"Slendy!" I called, knocking Slendy's office. "Come in." I heard him order. I opened the door and walked in, closing the door behind me. "If you're here to give me orders, I would like you to leave," He said. I gulped. "N-no. I'm here to talk about Elise,"

"Sit down, then," he demanded. I nodded and did as I asked.

And I told him everything.

It has been days since the last time I was in her house. I think weeks. She was a very responsible and a studious girl. Now, she won't even peek at her notebooks. It's like somebody possessed her body and turned her into someone different from her. Something she doesn't want to be.

"She hasn't told you any reason of why she is like this?" Slendy asked me. I looked down and bit my lip slightly, shaking my head no. Slendy immediately stood up from his chair. "I will think of something. Call Masky and Hoodie over. You may leave,"

"So you're not gonna do anything?" I scoffed. "I will as soon as I think of something." he responded firmly. Angrily, I stood up from the chair and teleported.

....

It's a possession. It's definitely a possession. No wonder she has changed her personality so drastically. I'm not 100% sure it's a possession, but something tells me it could be. But, who would posses her? Zalgo? What demon? What thing?

"Hey shortie," I heard Sonic call from behind me. I was on the floor, playing video games. I was assuming he was sitting on the couch. But I was wrong. When I turned around, I saw him floating above the couch. "What," I grunted, gritting my teeth. "I heard you got the goods," he remarked. Eye widened, I paused the game, running towards him. "Shhh! You can't mention that here,"

I teleported away to my room, shocked. Several seconds later, Sonic appeared in my room with his arms crossed. I bent over and got a box from under my bed. Sonic raised his eyebrows in amazement. "That'll be $50," I smirked.

"I'm broke." he stated. I slid the box under my bed again. "Too bad."

"Fine," he spoke, teleporting away before coming back in less than ten seconds, handing me two twenty dollar bills and a ten dollar bill. "Where'd you--"

"Don't ask." he cut me off bluntly. Lazily, I pulled the box from under the bed and opened it. I took out a small bag and handed it to him. I grabbed the money from his hands and closed the box, pushing it under the bed again. He began to chuckle. "Pleasure doing business with you."

He walked out of my room as I sat on my bed before letting out a sigh.

"Yeah, you too,"
