Cydo's pov

Is Jack ok? Is something truly wrong? Will it kill him?

I started to hyperventilate. Hoodie noticed and instantly knelt down to my level. Placing a hand on my shoulder, he started to say comforting things in his calm voice. But my heart wouldn't slow.

"Jack is indeed sick. Unlike anything we've seen. But he will be ok." Slender said at last. I tried to let myself calm, but something wouldn't let me.

"I-is t-there a..." I couldn't get the words out. Slender took notice and took the rest of the sentence from my mind.

"No. Dr. Smiley has not yet found a cause. If there is one. I will tell you if he does find one." he told me. I just sat on the floor and thought.

"Now, I'll have to go back to Splendor's. I have to move Offender to Trender's place. So nothing happens between him and Jack." Slender told me.

"Can I come? To see Jack?" I asked.

"No. You need to go to the cellar and get the book of creatures. You need to figure out what you are. If you need help with the book, the proxies or Clockwork will help you." he told me. I was very unhappy with my answer. I wanted to see Jacky...

But perhaps it could prevent any additional injuries if I knew what I was.

The proxies exited the room and I crawled under the desk. Slender understood that I just needed a little 'hide-away' time so he just continued with the papers on his desk for a moment.

I thought for a few moments before coming to a conclusion. I was going with him anyway. If I teleported with him just by touching him. If not, I'll go get that book of creatures.

"Cydo, I'm leaving now. I suggest you do not mess anything up if you choose to remain in here." Slender's voice came from above the desk.

"Ok." I replied before reaching out and gently touching his shoe. A moment later, I felt kind of woozy and my eyesight went black for a brief moment. It cleared and we were in a hallway. In front of us were two large doors.

Slender didn't seem to notice me as he knocked on the doors. I didn't wait. I turned and as quietly and quickly as I could, I took off on all fours down the hallway. If I can find the infirmary here, I can find Jack.

I stopped at the end, which took a minute, and looked around. Holy fuck, this place is bigger than Slender's. He has a shack compared to this guy. Damn.

I wandered the halls for what seemed like forever. I can never find the infirmary, how can anyone else find it? Ugh! This is so frustrating!

I started pacing back and forth in aggravation. Damn these stupid hallways...

My ears perked up at a sound. It sounded like... A door opening. Hide! I looked around for a place to hide, but found nothing. Damn these people and their empty hallways.

Either run or pick a door, fast! I chose both. I took off down the hallway to get some distance before stopping to check doors. I lowered my nose to the crack at the bottom and sniffed. It smelled heavily of perfume and air freshener. Nope.

I quickly ran to another door and checked it. Each door I checked smelled of something that was done recently. Until.

I checked a door and there was a stale smell, as though no one's been in here for years. Perfect! I grabbed the doorknob and twisted. To my demise, it was locked. Big whoop.

I extended a claw and picked it easily. The door opened and I jumped in. Closing the door behind me and locking it, I turned to look at my surroundings. It was a bedroom. Dark and gloomy, the bed had black blankets and pillows and the shelves had... Dust. Well, dusty jars.
