Jeff's POV-

I carried the boy from his house to the mansion. All the way through. Gosh, he's heavy. Despite the fact that he is so skinny. Its just bones and normal other things in his body. 0% fats. And this- this is the shock of my life. He is supposed to protect us?  From Zalgo? Zalgo will knock him out in no time. Shit.....

Its always a female. The proxy.  So weird. I don't know, man. Maybe Slendy will know something about it. He always does. That man with a blank face and a black tuxedo with a whole of tendrills knows everything. Maybe it has to do something with the past. Family relations, perhaps? Maybe this boy's grandmother or great-great grandmother has been one of the proxies.

Feeling sleepy. Coming out was a bad idea. But atleast, we found the proxy. But so quick, didn't expect it.

Things have been weird this year. First, I got to set a goal and I'm following it (surprisingly), Second, I found the proxy at the first trial: sometimes it takes ne months. Third, Jack and Hoodie have agreed something with me. Fourth, the proxy is a male. Shit. Shitshitshitshitshitshit.

But atleast, he had the heart. The people I kill always beg me to spare their lives. For mercy. I do not give them and they simply die off. But he tried. At least he fought for his life. Whether he lost or won, that's a different thing. That's the thing we want in proxies. They have the strength and the will.

The forest was vast and filled with trees. The trees were long and thin. Some of them were thick, though. Whenever I look at the branches of the trees, I see some white spots on them. That's a sign that there is no pollution in here. I learnt it from my normal days. The days when I still used to go to school.

I miss those days. I miss them, I really do. I now regret my choice to become a serial killer. What had gotten inside me? I don't know. That wasn't me. But whatever had gotten inside me, it forced me to kill my whole family. But I'm trying. I'm trying to change.

But I can't!!! I just can't!! I'm now sitting beside a boy who is literally a ghost and whose favourite colour is green and favourite thing to do is play video games on my left and a girl who is literally back from the dead (also a ghost) and is holding a fucking teddy that talks. I can't get out of this situation. I can't and I never could. I am one of them now. I am their family.

"So, he is the proxy?" Slenderman asked.

"Yup, its him." I answered back.

"Hmm..."Slendy wondered.

"What's up?" Ben asked.

"Its a boy..." Slendy told.

"Thats exactly what I'm thinking." I said.

I turned back and Smile barked, seeing me. "Quiet, boy." I told, putting a finger between my lips.

Hearing Smile's bark, the boy opened his eyes slightly. He looked around, still not opening his eyes fully and gasped at me. He opened his eyes wide and sat up with a jolt. He was sweating to the fullest and then looked around at everyone. He was startled more when he saw Slendy.

"Who the fuck!??" He cried out.

Slendy stood up and walked over to him. He held his hand out. "Hello, boy. My name is Slender man, but you can call me Slendy. What is your name, child?"

The proxy kept staring at Slender man for a very long time. After that, he asked, "Are you a ghost?"

This made Ben and Me laugh. We fell on the floor, laughing and rolling. Slendy gazed at us, "This is not funny!!"

"I am not a ghost, boy. I'm just a..... entity." He replied, and then asked him again, "What did you say your name was again?"

"My name imy Bruce Springsteen." He managed to cry out slowly. "What am I doing here?" He looked around.

And then, he fell on the ground and tears filled his eyes. "Am I being kidnapped? Please, leave me alone."

Shit, so this is the proxy who is going prevent the destruction of the world.

Speaking of  utter nonsense.

I looked into his eyes and saw horror. "This is a dream, I know it." He said, and closed his eyes. He went to sleep.

Really?

He just fucking went to sleep. Bitch...

"Jeff, take him to the spare room, his room, and let him rest. We'll begin again in the morning." Slendy said.

" 'Kay.." I said and stood up.

....

Candice's POV-

This can't be happening. Maybe its a dream. Maybe I'm hallucinating. But whatever it is, it is not..... reality. But it is. This is reality. Believe me, I've tried.

The woods were dark. Of course, it midnight and it will be. The trees were unlike anything I've ever seen. They were hollow, slender and tall. Maybe that's why this forest is named 'Slender Forest'. 

Jack is slowly walking beside while Hoodie went to do some hunting. He said he didn't want to go to the mansion right now. Odd time for hunting, right?

I gazed at Jack and he gazed back at me. I smiled and blushed. I expected something but I realized it was useless since I can't see anything behind that blue mask.

"You like the walk?" He asked me.

"Yeah, its peaceful." I replied.

"Let me ask you something. Why were you not surprised to see me and Hoodie when we were in your room?"

"Well, uh, I know, its a little awkward you not seeing me totally fucked up when I saw you, but you know what, I believe in you, I mean, I see you on the net almost everyday and uh, I saw the news about you guys killing others and the only thing I wished from my 10th birthday was to see you guys. And that exact promise, was fulfilled tonight." I answered.

"Hmmm." He muttered and nodded his head.

"And I also knew you all wouldn't kill me because I knew all of you. You don't do it to someone who knows you, right? " I said.

Jack only chuckled.

And suddenly, light illuminated the ground and the nearby areas. I raised my head up to get a better look and saw a house. A huge one.

The mansion.
