Y/N's POV

*EJ. EJ. EJ. That bastard- Alright, so I'm targeted by the wolves for some reason. I had wolf venom in my system and none of the symptoms took place so I believe I'm good to go? Then we have Slender being worried about his proxies, they don't seem like themselves. I need to find my room, I'll probably have to clean it up or remodel the way it looks. My goodness, there's so much to do. Alright, first thing's first, find EJ.*

"I'll be back to clean this place up." I ran out the door before Dr. Smiley could answer and began looking for EJ.

I wondered around the halls for quite a while, it was already a few hours past noon. I can understand why someone would have a mansion for a lot of people, but this place looks so deserted, I haven't seen a single being ever since I left the infirmary. Could everyone be out? Is there some kind of secret room where they have discussions? Okay, at this point, I'm just getting ridiculous with the question, why do I care?

I find my way back to the living room only to find an empty space of filth. I'm starting to feel like Slender decided to keep me here just so that I can clean things up. Now I don't feel like cleaning any public places if this is how it's going to be. I let out a sigh and walked to the kitchen to get a bottle of water. I mean, too much iron from blood in your system and you can practically die.

*Where could he be? And where the hell is everyone?*

I see a small head peak out from around the kitchen door opening. I look around for a snack of some sort, a cookie, and gave it to them. It was Sally and Charlie. I forced a small smile for her so that she could feel comfortable, maybe she knows where he is.

"Charlie wants one too.." she peeped out.

"I'm sorry, what was I thinking? How about this, if I give Charlie a cookie and both of you a glass of milk, would you tell me where Jack is?" I asked while getting plastic cups ready and grabbing another cookie.

"Hmm, I dunno.. I'd have to consult with Charlie.." she immediately began whispering a few things in Charlie's ear. "We have a deal!" She smiled letting out her extroverted side.

"You know, you speak pretty maturely for your age, who do you usually spend your day with?" I continued the conversation while filling the cups up with milk and handing the cookie to Charlie.

"Slendy, Clocky, Mr. Smiley, EJ, and Jeff!" She said happily.

"Wait Jeff? Doesn't he seem like a bad influence to you?" I asked a little concerned for her innocence.

"That's what everyone says but he's funny and he says some pretty interesting things like all those bad words and weird phrases like 'BEN YOU DICKSUCKING ELF, GET YOUR JINGLE HEADASS OVER HERE'. Like I said pretty interesting." She smiled.

"PFFT- okay, I don't think it's a good idea to hang around him but it's up to you, just as long as you don't end up like him. Anyway, can you tell me where EJ is?" I reminded her of our deal.

"Oh yeah! Well, I don't know where he is, but he might be in his room, but I think you should check if he's in the game room first. He's usually down there with Ben, Jeff, and the proxies!" She informed.

"Thanks Sal, and thank you to you too, Charlie." I smile and patted both of their heads and then walked off to look for the game room.

~One Hour Later~

"THIS PLACE SERIOUSLY NEEDS SOME LABELS FOR ROOMS!" I exclaimed.

I've spent the last hour trying to maneuver my way around the halls, I forgot to ask Sally about where the game room was. Well, I didn't forget so much as I thought that maybe I could find my way on my own while mapping the layout of the mansion in my head. It wouldn't have killed Slender to get some labels and just label things out, or maybe make some rooms obvious.
