"Shadow..." Slender said, petting my white fur, "we made breakfast," I sat up and transformed. I looked up at Slender, his face showed pity, I then turned to Kadence, the little girls skin had became a healthier color but she was still very pale, I felt her smooth skin to find it cold. Slender put his arms around my waist and I leaned into him. I just want Kadence to live.
"Shadow, you need to eat," he started walking but I stood there, "Shadow, I know your sad but, you really do need food," I heard my stomach growling in hunger, Slender touched my shoulder and we teleported to the kitchen. BEN offered me some pizza, I sat there picking at it, I knew I was hungry but I couldn't bring myself to eat. Slender sat a cup of tea in front of me, I sipped it, everyone staring at me, "what do you want?"I snapped, I was very frustrated, Jeff looked up at me,
"Shadow, I'm-" He started, I stood up before he could finish, picking up the tea with me,
"I'm going to see Kadence," I walked away to the beige room Kadence was in. It was the same room I stayed in my first night here, I remembered the hospital smell, everything sterile. I peered in to see the short little girl still laying in bed, her chest moving up and down as she slept under the yellow sheets and heavy blankets to keep her war. I looked at the little girl slowly sadness filled my heart. I went and sat by her bed, taking occasional sips of my tea. When she wakes up I want to be there.
"Shadow, why was Jeff apologizing?" I head Slender ask, I spun around to see him standing in the doorway. I let out a deep sigh, regretting everything, I looked down at my lap,
"H-he kisses me last night," I said, my voice shaky close to tears. "Slender, I'm sorry, he kissed me and I pulled back and slapped him but I know it won't help," I burst into tears, Slender walked over, snaking his hands around me comfortingly.
"Y-your not mad?" I asked, leaning into his chest as I wiped my tears away.
"No Shadow, the point that you told me tells me your sorry," I looked up at him gratefully, leaning in for a soft kiss. We sat like that, kissing synchronized until I let go for air. I leaned into him softly, not wanting to disturb the peace.
"She'll be fine," he whispered, reading my mine,
"I'm just worried that she'll die, she's young her body wasn't made for that much pain," I wiped away a stray tear holding back the rest,
"why do you care for her so much?"
"I don't know," I wiping away another tear,
"How old are you now?" He pet my hair gently
"21," I answered, looking up at him,
"How old is she?"
"4 or 3, I don't know, she told me once," he wiped a stray hair out of my face, "why do you ask?"
"Your old enough to be her mother," a startled look came across my face. Her mom? No. Her sister? Maybe.
"Oh, no I couldn't be a mom,"
"You'd be a perfect mom," he looked down at me, meeting my stare.
"A great mom," a voice said from the hallway, I turned around to see Jeff. I made a ugly sound with my mouth, snuggling into Slender who put his arm around me protectively,
"We will talk later," Slender told him, his voice calm but killer. That shut Jeff up, he stared at me, I turned back towards Kadence.

I sat next to her, it's been a week now, no ones said much between each other.

If that diamond ring turn brass,
Shadows gonna buy you a looking glass,
If that looking glass gets broke,
Shadows gonna buy you a billy goat,
If that billy goat don't pull,
Shadows gonna buy you a cart and bull,
If that cart in bull fall down,

I let a tear slip down followed by more, I was crying hard when I heard a soft weak voice, "will I still be the sweetest little girl in town?" I looked up to see Kadence looking back at me her face showed curiosity.
"Yes," I managed through tears, "you'll still be the sweetest little girl in town," I hugged her, wiping away tear, "Kadence your awake!" I screamed.
"Yeah, what happened?" she put her hand on the back of her head, "why doesn't my head hurt anymore?" I looked at her confused face.
"We turned you into a creepypasta," I sighed,
"Does that mean I'll have to kill people?" She looked at me wide eyed,
"Not exactly, we'll have to ask the boys," she smiled at me, "wanna see your look?"
"Okay," she slid out of the bed walking to the mirror, when she got there she just stared. Her blonde hair now looked dip dyed blue, she still had beautiful hair though. Her eyes were a aqua color, and on her wrist was a wolf tattoo. Wait. She looked at me curiously.
"What is it," she asked, messing with the blue part of her hair,
"You have a wolf tattoo," I said quitly,
"I do? Awesome!" She said peering at it thoughtfully,
"I have some too, and I'm a..."
"Shadow wolf," she finished the sentence for me, her mouth ajar.
