'Child, who sent you?' Slender asked Sasha. She looked at him curiously. "No one. But you remind me of a guy I once knew. When I was...alive." 'Really? And who would that be?' "That would be my father. He's also the one who banished me from his world." 'His... world? Where do you come from? What 'world' do you come from?' "He called it wonderland. It was such a beautiful place." Her voice sounded sad. I saw how Slender suddenly stiffened. He knew something. "Sir? What's wrong?" I asked. 'It appears that we have a problem on our hands. My...youngest brother, one that we had forbidden from this realm, seems to have survived. I now realize why Sasha has the looks of a feline. My brother, Cheshire, was also this way. He...tried to kill us, destroy everything. That's why we banished him. It seems that he created a home in the void we sent him to.' "I see. So do you think that Sasha is as bad as him?" "Hey! That's not very nice of you! I was told by father that I had to wait until you guys were exactly seventeen until going to find you. I didn't even know who he was talking about until recently. " 'You were told by Cheshire to find them? What does he want of them?' "I think he said that he wanted to reunited with his family." I didn't understand, but I don't think Soul Snatcher did either. She just stared at the scene unfolding in front of her. Eventually, she got up and left, bringing her scythe with her. Slender was still talking. 'I believe I understand the situation. Sasha, you are free to leave. Stitches, I will explain things tonight. For now, you are dismissed. ' "Yes sir." As I turn to leave, I catch a glimpse of Sasha before she disappeared before my eyes. Not the strangest thing I've seen while in this manor, but surprising none the less.

(3rd person POV)

After the girls left his office, Slenderman was left to figure this whole mess out. His brother, Cheshire, had showed no interest in revenge these past few centuries, so why now? So soon after...after Stitches and Soul Snatcher had shown up. Maybe that was his reason. But..that could mean that the girls were Cheshire's...daughters.
