Slender Man

VI

I stare out the window waiting for Ethan and the rest of them to finish packing there stuff. Fiddling with my fingers i step out the car walking inside the house to find them.

Inside is quiet. The air feels cold, sending shivers down my spine. Where is everyone?

"Sam! Seth! Jason! Ethan?!" I shout but no one answers.

I sigh walking back outside, the front door slams shut. Everyone is in the car staring at me. I furrow my eyebrow stepping down the wooden steps.

"There you guys are." I smile walking toward them, but my feet move in slow motion.

I gasp when i look up, The faceless man stands by the car, he has extra arms popping out from his back. My breathing becomes uneven as the car suddenly erupts in flames.

"No!" I scream trying to run to it. "Stop! Please!" I cry, the faces of my friends soon disappear and all i could see is smoke. I cough, my feet finally letting me move. I run to the car seeing bones and ashes.

I scream in fear when i see a hand reaching toward mine.

I wake up with a jolt, sweat falls down my face. I take in my surroundings as i'm back in my room. What?

I take the blankets off of me, my eyes suddenly widen. There's dirt all over me. I look at my hand seeing more.

I quickly stand up running out of the room, I smell pancakes as i open the front door. I gasp covering my mouth with my hands. How could this have happened? Did i do it? Was i sleep walking?

I walk closer seeing a paper. Tears slowly escape my eyes as i read over it.

'Can't run'

I choke on my tears falling to the ground. I can't do this anymore, he's after us and he won't let us go. I have to tell everyone what's going on. Sniffing, i get up taking the paper with me.

I put the paper on the table where everyone is eating.

"What's that?" Jason asks.

"What does it look like?" I huff getting irritated.

"What happened to you?" Seth questions standing up from the table. "Scar?"

"He's after us, Slender Man. He's going to try to kill us."

"Calm down," Seth coos bringing me into his arms "Tell me what happened."

"He blew up the car."

"What?!" Jason shouts rushing outside. "Fuck!"

"Why are you covered in dirt?" Sam asks "Did you do that?"

"Why the hell would i do that?" I snap "Did you not just hear what i said? It's Slender Man!"

She laughs half heartedly "Really? He's not real!" She yells flapping her arms in the air "How are we supposed to get home? You're fucking crazy."

"Sam," Seth warns

"No, she's crazy! Look at her. She said she didn't do it, then why is she covered in dirt?!" She argues.

Jason barges in the house muttering curse words "How the hell did that happen?"

"Apparently, it was 'Slender Man'." Sam quotes rolling her eyes.

Jason's head snaps toward me, he takes in my appearance locking his jaw "Are you fucking kidding me Scar? Do you expect us to walk or something? Cause you're damn crazy if you think that's the case." He growls.

"It was Slender Man!" I tell him.

"He isn't--"

"Yes he is." Ethan says coming into the kitchen "How do you explain all the pages? They're the ones from the game." He tells them then shakes his head. "He's real." He says again.

"This is a fucking joke." Sam shakes her head "He's not--" she stops speaking as she starts coughing.

Seth lets go of me to check on her. She falls to the ground, almost gagging now. What is wrong with her?

"Sam," I rush to her side.

I look at the ground seeing blood. She's coughing up blood.

"Guys," I whisper "She's coughing blood."

"Call the ambulence!" Seth shouts "Oh my god, Sam you're gonna be okay." He tries to say calmly but i can tell he's afraid by the way his voice cracks and his hands shake vigerously.

"My phones not working." Jason gulps

"Neither is mine." Ethan bites his lip shaking his head.

I can already tell no one's is going to work, but not giving up i run to my room looking around for my phone.

"Where did i put it?" I mutter searching everywhere. My hands start shaking, my best friend down there is about to die and i can't find my damn phone. Something tells me that this has to do with him. Shaking my head, i rush back downstairs.

Sam lays in Seth's lap, barely breathing.

"Oh my god." I gasp "Sam," I cry running to her. "Come on Sam, please don't stop breathing."

"Sam.." Seth cries shaking her." Don't-- please don't--"

Her breathing gets slower and slower. "Sam!" I shout "Come on please--" I cry, Arms wrap around me bringing me away from her "No, stop- i-" Tears fall down my eyes like a waterfall, blurring my vision.

"Shhh.." A hushed voice coos, he holds me in his arms, most likely being Ethan. I whisper

"I know he did it."
