( The Narrator)
Things were always so confusing. The poison going through my veins. The laughter, blood boiling...I felt like using every last part of my strength just for this moment. A moment that I had been looking forward to. WHY DID I HIDE WHEN I KNEW WHAT WAS TO COME!!! THIS WAS FUN!...You ok there buddy? Your spacing out on me again. Come on don't look so worried. We aren't evil...Well we aren't good ether. Our mind is just...Fucked up! Come on. You speak to yourself to look for the answers, yet you can't handle the truth when I tell you.. Well you are me after all.
Anyways...What was I saying?
(The Narrator smiles.)
Oh right. Poison...Death, dismay, rebirth. I think I got ahead of myself didn't I? Why don't you continue the story? Come on Dreams...Not all Nightmares are bad.
( Your Narrator has left. Instead, someone else has come to take their place.)
( The new Narrator looks at you tired before continuing with the rest of the story, that the other Narrator tried to skip through.)
Even though the Nightmare understood the things around her. I did not. I was always busy with the work on my mind. Yet somehow even that was confusing to me. All these memories, scattered and thrown around. What was I really? Was I the friend? The enemy? Myself? The reaper??...No. This isn't right. You shouldn't be listening to me. My words only tell half of the truth. The Nightmare is trying to distort you! She is you and you are me...But do not trust the lies we tell ourselves Mercy! -

( LJ's pov)
I saw her standing there. Confused and scared, only trying to understand how she ended up there. Mercy stood there, within my carnival. She was pure white, with a bright glow. Not a bit of color on her. The only color I could find was in her golden yellow eyes. Even her hair color was gone...This was her spiritual form. Or at least the first I got see in this life time. She was in the middle of my carnival, in a small clearing. Standing on the bricked ground below her and looking at her surroundings in shock. Confused, and wanting to understand why she came here, I walked over to her with my hands in my pockets" I didn't think you would try to find a way back here Mercy." I would say in a confused but slightly chuckling tone. Mercy quickly jolted and looked directly at me and shook her head" No. This isn't possible. She couldn't have...Why did she send me here?!" Mercy would slightly shout in panic as she backed away from me. I would look at her in confusion" Woah! Calm down there Mercy! Your still alive." I would try to explain to her in a calm tone. By that point there was no point in attacking her. I already figured she wasn't in her physical body any more. There was no point in trying to attack her soul...not yet. Mercy shook her head and took a deep breath and let out a shaky sigh. Why was she so scared? She usually was calm...She didn't show fear the last time she was here. Why was she afraid now?" Just explain to me why you came here." I would say trying to calm her down. Mercy would look down" I...I was in my house just a moment ago...I...I have been on edge lately. And...Nightmare took over the body. I thought that she would send me back somewhere within our soul...But somehow I am here. " Mercy would slightly explain...but there was something she seemed to be hiding. This wasn't good. I would cross my arms" Alright. Tell me the rest of the story." I would say in a serious tone. Mercy would look up at me in shock" I can tell your hiding something from me. Out with it. There's no point in keeping it a secret. I will eventually find out anyways." I would say to her in a serious tone. Mercy would look down" ...Well...Nightmare took over because Jeff came in my house swinging his knife at me. She thought it was interesting and wanted to see how well he could hold his own. I tried to stop her and keep control. But she pushed me out. I can already feel the damage she is causing from taking over so suddenly." Mercy would explain in a slightly sad tone as she would look away from me. I would look at her in shock at her explanation. Jeff was attacking Mercy right now!? Why was he attacking her!? Slender gave us orders to only watch her until he gave the signal to capture her. Slender wasn't planning her death until he handed her over to Zalgo.
Suddenly, a large gash wound would appear on Mercy's left shoulder. How was that possible?! How could a humans soul bleed?! No...She can't be human. Mercy would grab her shoulder and grit her teeth in pain, her soul would start to lightly shake" Damn it!" Mercy would slightly shout in pain as she would back a few feet away from me. I would walk closer" How is this possible?! How come your very soul in bleeding!?" I would ask in a confused and worried tone" Any wound I get becomes a mark on my soul. I...No. We have many ways of covering them up. Scars can be hidden. But this...This must be where Jeff has hit me. I-It must have just appeared on the soul. As Nightmare fights. As she fights...I fall apart. S-She's mixing the energies wrong! I can feel the burning in my chest! The pain the body is feeling! I can feel every bit of it!" Mercy would slightly shout. I would place my left hand on her right shoulder" Its ok. Calm down. I will find a way to get you back to your body." I would say in a calm and serious tone. Mercy would shake her head and her soul would start to shake violently" N-No! I-It's to late! I can't keep the pain in! Its too much!!!" Mercy would shout, within the matter of seconds, blood started pouring out of her mouth. Dripping down her chin and onto her short white dress. It would stain her dress, and eventually drip down onto the floor. My eyes would widen as blood tears would start to fall from her eyes and pour down her face. Mercy would wrap her arms around herself, trying to stop shaking, to no avail. Mercy would start to cry. She had never shown such emotion in front of me. This girl that always tried to show herself as strong, and hard working...This girl who maintained the worlds of many of the people she helped...The girl who could escape Slender...Was breaking down right in front of me. I would place both my hands on both her shoulders" Hey! It's never to late! What happened to that fearless girl who could face me with a smile!? The girl who escaped her death many times! Where did she go!? You didn't give up then! So why are you giving up now!? You are not weak! I know your in pain! But I have seen you fighting even when it meant it would cost your life! Don't give up! I am no longer your enemy! You being here does not mean your death!" I would shout at her in with worry and anger. Mercy would look at me in shock, trying to keep herself together she would slowly put her arms down and take a deep breath, she would let out a pain filled sigh. Mercy would look down, her eyes opened wide as if she was trying to hold in the pain" I-I can't d-do it on my own...I'm to far away from the body to take back control...It hurts...My organs hurt...It feels like their rotting from the inside out. Nightmare is fusing Madness and Sanity in toxic ways...The seal wont let us use the energy like this. I am not immortal. I can not survive this without help. As I speak I am trying to find where my body is...but its like I have been disconnected from it...I wish Hatter was here." Mercy would say in a shaky voice" I will help you get back. I know how to get back to your world without problem." I would explain in a serious tone. Mercy would start to look tired" How much does Hatter know about you Mercy? Does he know how to fix this?" I would ask in a serious tone. Mercy would smile, the pain was to much for her" He probably knows more about me then I ever will LJ...He... He is Death after all..." Mercy would say in a light and soft tone as her eyes would close, and she was start to fall back. I would catch Mercy and lift her up" Can you no longer move?" I would ask her. Mercy would barely open her eyes" I am...Dreams." Where the only words she could manage to say. Her soul blood got on my hands as I carried her" For a Dream, the blood looks pretty real Mercy..." I would say in a sighing tone" Are you really my friend LJ? Or do you hate me LJ?" Mercy would ask in a soft and sad tone. My eyes would widen by her question" Why do you ask me these questions?" I would ask in a quick tone as I would frown. Mercy would close her eyes" You...You should have already killed me LJ. Hell...even my friend Emily wanted me dead...I know that my spiritual friends can't do anything to help me...Not even Hatter can fully fix the situation. I know...The Reapers work with the Proxies...And I know I must pay for what I have done. There is more that I have caused then this...Because how could I possibly be this weak? So many repeats...So many deaths. Why are you helping me? Why LJ? Why? Why are you and BEN so damn nice to me? You guys defended me, you protected me from Tod. You...You let me see your world. You guys hang out with me. Why? If I am...the cause of all this. Why care about me? Why try to be my friend? If I am hated so much...Why show me your world? Why have you stopped trying to kill me?" Mercy would ask and explain in a sad tone. I would look down at her" Why? Why have I stopped trying to kill you?...Why be nice to you? Why defend you?...Why?...Because I am starting to see you as my friend Mercy. Because I don't view you the same way I view the other people who got you involved in this. I don't see you the same why I saw the members of that group. They are shameless, using you without your knowledge. Making you believe that things weren't going to work. Using your powers to try and take control of your realm and the spiritual realm. I don't hate you Mercy. I believe you. I know you didn't want any of this to start. I know because of what they had confessed to. I don't care if you had been watching us way before you got involved. I don't believe you were ever trying to cause us any harm. If you were. You would have tried long before this happened. Because I have figured by this point that you like to finish what ever job you have, and you like to finish it quickly. I will not hold the actions of that group against you. And you have already owned up to your part in it. Even though you didn't realize it until it was to late. Mercy. Take a moment to think. Your soul is bleeding. I know that you are physically being attacked by Jeff right now. I could just leave you to die. But I am going to help you, and make sure you survive. Rest. You need it." I would explain to Mercy in a kind and soft tone. Mercy would look at me with pure shock before she would lightly smile and would close her eyes once more.
I then took Mercy back to her body, where I found out what had exactly happened between her and Jeff. Taking Matty, Bow, and Mercy to The Under Takers shop, where Hatter saved her life. After learning some of the things Hatter knew about Mercy..I had a lot to think about...My sister...Was the same girl that me and the others were trying to kill...That piece of information was something that I just didn't want to accept. Once that was over, and we took Mercy back to her home, and Jeff had to clean up his mess( With my help of coarse!) and BEN found out what happened. There was something I needed to say to a certain someone.
After all that, me, Jeff, and BEN went back to the mansion. We went to Slender's office in order to talk to him about what had happened. Slender was not pleased with what we told him" So...Jeff attacked Mercy against my orders?!" Slender would say in an angry tone as he looked at Jeff. Jeff would sigh and scratch the back of his head" Yeah. I know I'm in trouble for this. But she's still alive! She even forgave me for what I did!" Jeff would say as he crossed his arms. Slender would face palm and sigh" Jeff. The point is your not suppose to go against my orders, let alone go on what you hear from one of the prisoners. They're just trying to anger you so that she falls into their hands." Slender would explain in a sighing and irritated tone" I know...But what was I suppose to do!? Let her suffer at their hands?! Those pathetic people!? Even I don't think she deserves that and I am almost as cruel as Dr Smile! Hell they call me a killer in this life time!" Jeff would slightly shout" You are suppose to follow my orders! Period! If I wanted you to end her life I would have ordered it!...We will get rid of her once we have destroyed this little group." Slender would explain to Jeff. Jeff would look down, and so would BEN. I would cross my arms" No." I would say in a dark tone. Slender would quickly glare at me" What do you mean no!?" Slender would ask in an angry voice" I meant what I said! No! I will not be the one to kill her! I refuse to keep doing this!" I would shout at Slender. Everyone would look at me in shock" I told you who she is...Yet your still insisting on her death! Well I wont be apart of it! No matter what she is my sister! Even if she doesn't know I wont keep trying to kill her! No...Not after what I said to her. Not after trying to save her life. Not this time." I would explain in an angry and sad voice as I would frown" LJ, she has information on us that no one else can ever-" Slender would try to explain but I would cut him off" I don't care! She has kept everything a secret since the day she got away from this place! I watched those screens! I saw what she did when she first got back! We all did. But you still seem to think there's a reason to get rid of her. Well I don't." I would say in an upset tone. BEN would look away from me, as Jeff would look down" After all that's happened. After all that I have found out. I can't pretend that she is my enemy. True...My family has a reputation for going against each other...But I refuse to let it repeat itself. You can blind yourselves to what's happening. But I will no longer be apart of this. I will not kill my own sister. No...Not again." I would say as I would open the door, getting ready to leave before BEN would speak up" He's right. If it isn't obvious what is happening, then I don't know what will make it any clearer. I'm with him. I refuse to attack my family. No matter what they have done." BEN would say in a stubborn tone as he would cross his arms. Slender would sigh and look at Jeff" So I guess that you too refuse to do this job?" Slender would question" Oh I am going to do my job. We will get rid of this group. But I don't believe that Mercy has to be sacrificed in order to do it." I would say in a serious tone. BEN and Jeff would look at me with surprise" But what if they get their hands on Mercy?" Jeff would ask in a concerned tone" Yeah what will happen if Mercy falls when we aren't paying attention?" BEN would ask in a worried tone. I would look down, but would then look back up, giving them all a serious look" Then we'll just have to make sure that doesn't happen wont we?" I would say in a serous tone. BEN would nod agreeing with me, while Jeff would take a moment to think. Slender would sigh giving in" Alright. So what will we do when Zalgo hears of this? Do you really think he will back down on the contract we've made?" Slender would ask in a serious tone as I would look back at him" We can give him someone else in her place." I would say as a grin would begin to form on my face" And who would that be LJ?" Slender would ask in a darker tone" How about the leader of that group? The leader is obviously not human...they are controlling their members in order to get to us. So why not welcome our guests to the party?!" I would say in a laughing tone as I would give Slender and evil smile. Slender would stare at me, suddenly the place where his eyes were suppose to be would rip open, showing black consumed eyes and white pupils, a torn black smile would start to appear on his face, it almost looked like his skin was tearing and ripping from his smile. What was once faceless, now had a face to show" You always have such fun idea's Jack. I would love to see how you make this plan work. " Slender would say as his face would become faceless once more, his eyes and mouth vanishing quickly" If you think that will work then we will try it. But there are things I need to see before I can guarantee that it will work. Jack you know that re-guardless of her being your sister that we must do our job. I'm sorry that things have turned out this way. But you know as well as I know that we don't have a choice in the matter. I will no longer ask you to get rid of her. But if you want to be so protective of her, then you will have to watch her. You will have to be the one to save her when she's about to die. She still has 3 passes here...For now. But I will not do it for you. That goes for you too BEN, Jeff. You two were asked by Hatter to help her, and I will not stop you. But you will still follow my orders. Same goes for you Jack. You no longer have to try and lead her to death. But if you don't want to be involved in her death, you will have to help her." Slender would explain to me in a calm tone. He was suddenly so calm, as if he understood" Honestly Jack. I know many of your family members. In fact it was one of your sisters I was great friends with. No it wasn't Kira...Yes Kira and me are friends, but she also works for me. Your other sister has never worked for me in this manor. But I made a promise to her Jack. That if she ended up lost inside herself...to do my job. I know its hard for you Jack...Even I am going to have to re-think some things. But it doesn't change the fact that we must do our jobs and keep this world balanced...In the end we all know this worlds balance would be what she wants...if Mercy is truly her...Then she will understand everything by the end of it all." Slender would explain in a sad but serious tone. I would look down...He was right. There had been so many life times, so many memories to remember. If Mercy truly is my sister like Hatter says...Then she knows many of us, even without remembering. This means that she in many life times, was a great friend to us...I couldn't take it. This sick feeling of knowing that my sister got stuck in the middle of all this. That my sister, who was once one of my great friends...had completely lost herself, and didn't even understand who she was, and who she is. The only part of her that seems to remember is so destructive, that if it took full control we would have to get rid of her because of the damage she could cause. I would look at BEN and Jeff" We need to do what Hatter asked of us. We need to help Mercy remember who she is...if she isn't already starting to remember..." I would say in a serious tone. Jeff would place his hands on his hips while BEN would cross his arms" I never said I wouldn't help her remember." BEN would say in a serious tone as he would smile. Jeff would sigh" I guess I have no choice. I would feel bad if she had no way out of it. I can't place all the blame on her for what they caused." Jeff would say in a serious but stubborn tone.
After that Jeff, BEN and me agreed to watch over Mercy, to make sure she wouldn't fall into the terrible fate that one of the group members had confessed to. Slender agreed he would give her a chance if we could get our hands on the leader Bloody Mary. Slender gave new orders to everyone. To take their main focus off of finding a way to get rid of Mercy and to find a way to capture the remaining members of the group. Jeff was given orders to keep interrogating the prisoners for more information, while BEN was told to work with me on keeping Mercy alive.
3 weeks past, and Mercy had just been staying at her home, getting Bow to get her what ever she needed from the spiritual world. Hatter began to pop over at Mercy's house every once in a while to check on her. But nothing major really happened. Every once in a while we would see a blur of blue appear in Mercy's room, but it would vanish as quickly as it would appear. But then...the day came.
I was walking down the hallway, getting ready to head towards the weapons room when Slender would suddenly physically appear in front of me. I would jump back, but before I could say anything to him he would grab my right wrist with his left hand" Quick! There's Something you need to see! Its Mercy! Emily has made an appearance!" Slender would say. I didn't question him, as I quickly followed him to the room we monitored Mercy from. BEN and Jeff were standing there, staring at the screen. Jeff looked shocked while BEN looked at the screen in anger. I would look to see what was going on. Mercy had just arrived in the middle of an old forest park that had been abandoned years ago. And their they were. Tod, and two other girls were standing close to Mercy's car. A woman with red hair, a young girl about Mercy's age who had blond hair. The blond must have been Emily. She was the only one who looked liked Tod. I watch from the moment Mercy was trying to get her car to start, till the moment Emily yanked Mercy out of the car, and threw her on the ground" Those bastards! They're using magick to make it to where she can't leave!" I would shout at the screen as Tod went up to Mercy with the dagger, and the ring I turned the sound up so I could hear what they were saying" Now chose. You can ether die here and we take your soul. Or you can pledge your loyalty to me and work with us." Tod would say...I already hated where this was going"You have no other choice! We have you trapped! And your soul attached to a doll! We have 3 different ways that we can kill you! You will not get away!" Emily would shout at Mercy. I could see the look on Mercy's face get angrier with each word" What do you say Mercy? Will you marry me?" Tod would ask Mercy in a sickening tone" OH HELL NO!" I would shout as I smashed my hands onto the desk that was holding the screen up" BEN! SET UP A PORTAL RIGHT NOW!" I would shout at BEN who gave me a shocked and slightly terrified look, before he would nod and began to open a portal to Mercy's location" This little bastard needs to learn..." I would say in a low growling tone" You going to help her right?" Jeff would ask in a serious tone, as an angry look formed on his face. I would nod as I walked over to the blue portal that BEN had opened. I could see the forest on the other side, and I could hear the voices on the other side"There is no way in hell I would ever join anything your apart of!!! You sick little prick!" I would hear Mercy say. I would look towards the monitor, seeing Mercy fighting back, noticing the doll that Emily had in her hands. That. I needed to get to that thing first! Slender would place his hand on my right shoulder" Jack." Slender would say in a serious voice. I would look back at him" Get the job done." Slender would say in a dark and grim tone. I would give him a big grin" Oh. I will." I would say in a chuckling tone as I looked back at the portal" You better hurry LJ! Emily's about to end it!" Jeff would shout at me. I looked at the monitor, seeing that Tod had stabbed Mercy in the chest, and Emily was starting to give Mercy a big speech" Why?...Why are you doing this to me?! What did I ever do to you Emily?! What did I do that was so bad that your trying kill me?! Weren't we friends?!" I would hear Mercy cry out to Emily"Why!? You want to know why?!" Emily would shout back at Mercy. I would quickly make my way through the portal and out the other side. BEN had placed the portal to where it was hidden behind some nearby trees. I would peak from those trees and instantly felt something wrong with the area. I could se the odd energies around me. There was an invisible barrier cloaking this entire forest. But it wasn't strong enough to get rid of the portal behind me. Who ever made this didn't want to hide. It felt as if something was trying to drain my energy away from me. I had placed a quick barrier around me so that my energy wouldn't be drained. But I could tell that Mercy's energy was being drained.
She was crying, Mercy was trying to hold back her tears as Emily looked at the doll and then looked back at Mercy"I was planning to get rid of you since the day we first met! I have never been your friend Mercy!" Emily would start to explain. I decided to listen for the moment to see if she would give any information about the group"You see Mary here has been wanting revenge against you since the day she met you...I've been apart of the CP alliance since the beginning. Me and my actual friends have been planning to kill you since I met you. I have always wanted to meet the creepy pasta's Mercy! And I knew you were my ticket in! I knew you had the power to bring me to them! Yes I did trick you into doing the spell! It was one that Mary made so I knew it would work! Unlike the shit me and my friends tried Mary actually knew how! And you see...Ever since Mary joined our little group the possibilities became bigger! Became easier! You were just suppose to be the sacrifice!" Emily would shout at Mercy before she would begin to laugh at Mercy's pain. My eyes would widen in shock...Mercy was telling the truth...It was Emily who tricked her into doing the spell...And she had this planned the entire time" I used you to get what I wanted! I always get what I want Mercy! Though I didn't plan for Matty to go into that portal with you, it works out just the same for me! Matty was going to be our sexual sacrifice anyways. But because she got dragged into that portal and didn't make it out alive...We need a new sacrifice...And My brothers been wanting you for a long time Mercy." Emily would then explain...I couldn't believe what I was hearing. A sexual sacrifice?! Why did they need a sexual sacrifice?! Where they planning on making a permanent portal through doing that?! But that kind of magick has been illegal for millions of years! Emily shrugged her shoulders and hands in the air"But its over now Mercy...The magick of this doll will keep you weak long enough for me to end this. And you wont have a say in the matter. So with that...Good bye Mercy." Emily would say. As Emily would aim the needle at the chest of the doll I would quickly act. You see there were many different types of magick I learned to use over million of years. I knew how to vanish and appear out of no where like my father and many others knew. I could stretch my arms to unusual lengths, there were many things I could do...that many people couldn't explain with simple words.
I would vanish from where I was and would appear directly in front of Emily, knocking the doll and needle out of her hands" I don't think so." I would say in a grim and deathly tone as Emily's eyes would widen in pure shock. The doll would hit the ground, along with the needle, landing about 20 feet to the left. The moment the doll landed on the ground Mercy would grunt in pain. That doll was starting to become too attached to her, if I didn't dispose of it, one wrong hit on that doll could kill her. Emily would fall backwards in fear and scream. Tod would quickly back away and hide behind the red haired woman" M-Mary! W-What do we do?! Y-You said that they would be against her by now!" Tod would shout at the red head...so that's your name. I would look back over at Mercy, she looked so shocked and confused as to why I was standing there. She had to be questioning why I stopped Emily. I would smile" Heh. Funny. You were laughing at how Mercy was down on the ground. Yet when faced with me you scream in horror." I would say in a low and chuckling tone. Suddenly Mary would lung at me without warning, trying to punch me with her left fist. I quickly caught her fist with my right hand, griping her hand so that she couldn't get away, still getting slightly pushed back from the force of her fist...this person wasn't extremely weak. But wasn't strong enough to get away from my grip with ease. Mary would jerk her hand forcefully away from mine. I let her hand go as she slid back a bit on her own feet " Oh? So there is still one of you willing to fight? I hope you are as strong as your members made you out to be...Because...I am looking forward to this challenge!" I would say in an evil and laughing tone. Emily would try to reach for the doll while she thought I was distracted. Suddenly BEN would appear between Emily and the doll. BEN had his arms crossed and had an angry smile on his face" You really think I'm going to let you do that?" BEN would ask Emily in a grim tone. Emily would gasp, frightened by BEN's words. I would chuckle" I see you've decided to join me!" I would say to BEN in a amused tone" I thought I'd join in on the fun!" BEN would say in a chuckling tone as Mary would try to lung at me once again. I would dodge her and ball up my right fist and would aim it at her face. She tried to dodge it, but I would stretch out my arm a bit to hit her. I hit her left check and knocked her onto the ground. Mercy would slowly try to stand. Shaking as she tried, blood would pour from the wound in the center of her chest. Mercy would cough up a bit of blood as tears ran down her face. She would forcefully yank the dagger out from her chest. Gritting her teeth and trying to hold in her cries of pain.
Tod would pull out a dagger from his left pocket with his left hand...so he had more then one this entire time. Tod would run past me, and BEN. Running towards Mercy with the dagger. BEN acted much quicker then I did. BEN would vanish and before appearing in front of Tod. BEN would grab Tod's left hand, causing him to drop his dagger. BEN would grip onto Tod's wrist tight and would give him a horrifying smile" I believe that me and Jack gave you fair warning when you showed up at Mercy's house the last time...Hehehe...You just can't take a hint can you?" BEN would ask in a dark and soft, but sick voice...It had been a while since I had seen this side of BEN, that dark but sweet voice...It sent chills even down my back...But that was part of how many of our family members acted...Including me. BEN would suddenly frown" You shouldn't have done that." He would say in a grim tone before his smile would come back" You've met with a terrible fate...HaVeN't YoU!??!" BEN would say the first few words softly before his voice began to sound as if it was some type of computer glitch. Tod would shake in fear" Y-Your! Y-Your one of the guys that was with Mercy the last time!!!!!" Tod would shout in fear as BEN would begin to laugh. BEN would yank at Tod's wrist" Let me show you...What taking an arm and a leg means!" BEN would say in a happy tone as he would pull at Tod's. You could hear Tod's shoulder pop out of place as BEN kept pulling. Tod would scream to the top of his lung" NO!!!! STOP!!!! PLEASE!!" Tod would say as he tried to pull away. But that just made it worse. Emily would watch in horror as Mary would slowly get up and began to watch. Mercy would fall to her knees, no longer able to stand she didn't care about Tod's screaming. Mary stared with no emotion at Tod as BEN tore his arm off. The sound of tearing flesh and cracking bones could be hear all around as Tod's arm completely came off. Blood would splatter out of Tod's arm and onto the ground and BEN. Getting all over BEN's cloths. Emily would scream and began to cry as Tod would make a high pitched scream and began to try and run away. Mary would look over at Emily and then would look at Tod. Mary quickly ran over to Tod. Placed her hand over his mouth as a portal opened behind her" Where the hell do you think your going?!" I would shout at Mary and Tod. But the moment I tried to stop them, Mary had already dragged Tod into the portal and closed it. BEN was huffing and puffing in anger as he would look at the arm he took from Tod, a big grin on his face. BEN would start to laugh as I would quickly run over to Mercy. There was no way to Follow Mary...I needed to see how bad Mercy's wound was" That son of a bitch! I should have tore into his chest and ripped out his heart before he could get away!" BEN would shout in anger as he laughed. I would kneel down to Mercy's level as she was on her knees with her hands over the wound on her chest, huffing in pain as tears kept streaming down her face" How deep is it?" I would ask in a worried tone. Mercy would grit her teeth...she was covered in her own blood" H-He barely missed my heart! A-An inch closer and I'd be dead!...Not like this isn't going to kill me! W-Why? Why did you come here? Why would you save me?!"Mercy would slightly shout in pain. I would look back at BEN" Hey BEN! Make sure that brat doesn't get away!" I would shout at BEN. Emily would quickly get up and would try running away. BEN would appear a few feet away from Emily" Where the hell do you think your going?! This is far from over dear!" BEN would say in a chuckling tone as he would grab Emily by the throat with both hands. Emily would grab onto BENS arms, trying to keep BEN from choking her to death. BEN would squeeze her neck. Emily would cough and weeze as she struggled to breath, tears would start pouring down her face. Soon Emily had passed out, and BEN had dropped her unconscious body onto the ground. BEN would then take a deep breath and would walk over to me and Mercy" Where is the herbs you use to heal yourself with?" BEN would ask in a serious tone...Just like most of our family members our mood can go from 0 to 100 quick. BEN went from anger and madness to calm and serious" I-It's in my bag..." Mercy would say...Her bag was still strapped to her. I would slowly take her bag off her and handed it to BEN" Here. Look for it. I'm opening a portal to my world. We need to take Emily in for questioning. I'll take Mercy to my world and keep an eye on her condition. Also. Make sure to get that doll. Don't leave that thing behind..." I would say in a serious tone. BEN would nod as he would search through Mercy's bag, and quickly finding the herbal mix. He would open it and kneel to Mercy's level as I opened a portal into my world. I would look at Emily as she was passed out"...So you were the major start to this...But still I have a feeling that there is more to this then just you and other peoples grudges against Mercy...No someone needed more motivation then this. A grudge needs to grow in order to cause this much chaos." I would say to myself as I looked back at Mercy and BEN. Mercy was laying on the ground, laying flat on her back..." Alright. Are you able to put this stuff on your wound or do you need me to do it?" BEN would ask in a serious and worried tone. A few more tears would go down Mercy's face" I'm so tired...It hurts to move...T-That d-dagger caused more damage then a n-normal blade would do!" Mercy would stutter to say. BEN would nod and would put some of the herbal mix on the wound on Mercy's chest. Mercy would grit in pain as the herbal mix was healing her wound. But blood would begin to seep through the mix. Me and BEN were both shocked by this" Is it not working?!" BEN would shout. Mercy would shake her head" The metal of the blade...is something used in the magick realms...I'm not sure why. The feeling of this burning wound feels so familiar...least the sensation feels familiar." Mercy would try to explain" BEN we need to patch her up so that she doesn't bleed to death! Go get some supplies from EJ. I'm going to take Mercy and Emily to my world." I would say in a serious and worried tone. BEN would question me" Wouldn't Slender want Emily to be sent to the prison in the mansion?" BEN would ask" I will send Emily to the mansion after I have asked the questions I want to ask. We can always revive her if she happens to die during that. "I would say to BEN as I carefully picked Mercy up" Why? I don't understand...Why are you doing this?" Mercy would ask in a sad and tired tone. She could no longer move she was in so much pain. I would and look at BEN" Also make sure you get everything that's here. Anything of anyone's take it and place it within the storage room in the mansion." I would say in a serous tone as BEN opened up a portal to the mansion" What about Mercy's stuff?" BEN would ask in a curios tone" Deliver it the Hatter. We will have to stop by there later to figure out why Mercy's wound isn't closing." I would say in a calm tone. BEN would nod as I would walk over to the portal that lead to my world" HEY! ONE OF YOU COTTON BRAINS HELP ME!" I would shout into the portal. Within the matter of a few seconds a large black plush voodoo doll that was about my size would peak through the portal. I would look at Emily" Pick that girl up and go chain her to the wall! Make sure she can't get away!" I would shout at the doll. The doll would nod and pick up Emily and take her through the portal" I got the supplies!" I would hear BEN shout. I would look back seeing BEN was behind me with one of EJ's large first aid kits" Good. Lets go patch her up." I would say in a serious tone . BEN would nod and would follow me as we walked through the portal. By the time we made it to the other side and were in my world, Mercy had passed out from the pain. I walked with BEN until I reached a door that was in the middle of my world. It was large brown door, just floating in the middle of nothing, with a stair case leading up to it. There were about 3 stairs that lead up to it. Me and BEN walked up the stairs and opened the door, and went into the room it lead to. The room was a large room with brown wooden floors with black and white stripped walls, a large light hung in the center of the ceiling. There was a large hanging bed in the top right corner of the room, a mirror dresser was against the middle of the left wall. right beside the bed was a large full body mirror. There were many mirrors that were hung around the room, there was about 35 mirrors within this room. I chose this room because I knew it would be further away from the tormenting tents within my carnival. BEN would place the first aid kit onto the mirror dresser and would open it. He would pull out a needle and some surgical thread as I would place Mercy on the bed. I wasn't an expert like EJ when it came to healing magick, and medical practices. But I knew about enough so that Mercy wouldn't bleed to death. BEN would hand me the needle and thread and would start to sow Mercy's wound up. BEN would hand me patches of cloth that were in the kit. I used those to clean her wound before I would place a few large bandages over the stitches. After it was covered I placed some of the left over cloth patches and taped them down. This would have to do. To wrap it even more would mean I would have to remove her cloths. And I'm sure she wouldn't appreciate that" Her cloths are torn from hell...She's going to need a change of cloths..." I would say in a sighing tone as BEN would close the first-aid kit and leave it on the dresser. I would check to see if Mercy was still breathing before me and BEN left the room. She needed to rest, she had lost a lot of blood...She was lucky not to be dead. BEN and me would walk back to the portal" You think she'll survive?" BEN would ask in a worried tone. I would nod" Yeah. She's still breathing. But at least she's not bleeding anymore. After she wakes up I'll take her to Hatter...Did you get the doll?" I would ask BEN in a serious but concerned tone" Yep!" BEN would say as he pulled out the same voodoo doll Emily had use from his left pocket" I disposed of the needle. But this thing most likely still works. I already figured out how this doll works. Its not hard to figure out by this point. Its basic really." BEN would say in a sure tone" Oh? Which kind of doll is it?" I would ask in a curios tone. BEN would hand me the doll" Well its as basic as voodoo dolls come. There is hair placed in the main part of the doll that the person wanted to get rid of. This one seems to have the hair in the middle. Meaning If the persons heart was open, they could kill them with just one good hit to the dolls chest. It seems in this case, Tod stabbed Mercy in order to make the wound fatal. If Emily would have stabbed the dolls chest...Mercy would most certainly have died. How ever there is no protection on this doll, and works in anyone's hands, which is very careless of who ever made this. All you have to do is cut the back of the doll and take its stuffing out before ripping the doll in half, then the spell should ware off. Though I can't guarantee that Mercy wont feel it. I'm surprised you didn't figure out this the moment you saw this doll. Its one of the most basic to create. Even a human who doesn't practice magick can make one of these...Well not one this powerful. The spell that...that woman placed on that area made the effects of the doll twice as difficult to deal with. Which explains why Mercy wasn't able to fight back like she usually can. If it wasn't for the spell that had been cast on that area before Mercy arrived. I am certain that Mercy could have handled it by herself." BEN would say in a calm and confident tone" But that wasn't the case. We let our guard down. They almost took her...They could have taken her soul and used her for god knows what. This is worse then what I first thought...I know who the woman in red hair was. I remember that woman BEN. There is no mistaking it...That thing...Is Brazul's puppet." I would say in a serious tone" Brazul has been dead for almost 100 years Jack. Do you really think he's come back after all this time?" BEN would ask, questioning my words" And his puppet was destroyed with him...Brazul's existence...should be gone." BEN would say in a sighing tone" But what if it isn't? What if things are repeating themselves BEN?" I would ask in a serious tone"...I'll make sure to discus this with Slender...He was watching the monitors...He might know." BEN would say in a serious tone as he would walk into the portal" I'm going to go make a report with Slender! And tell Jeff and the others what has happened! Don't kill Emily yet! And if you do, revive her! Slender and Jeff will want to integrate her!" BEN would shout as he left. I would close the portal once I knew he was gone...It was time to ask my own questions...Time to see what lies behind Emily's false tears...Your mask isn't good enough to fool me Emily...Just you wait. I'll show you what you get for being one of the puppeteers behind all this.
~ 1 hour later~
( Mercy's pov)
Red eyes...That was the last thing I remember seeing...LJ's eyes turning red before we went through the portal. The burning. The burning sting in the center of chest was getting worse. I would place my left hand on my chest and grab onto what felt like cloth. I slowly opened my eyes and saw the bandages that covered the center of my chest. I was covered in my own blood...I would slowly sit up feeling the throbbing sting as I tried" Aghh!" I would grunt as I sat up in the bed. I would move my head around, looking to see where I was" Where...Where am I? Am I dead?" I would question, more then confused as to why I was in this room. Slowly I would get out of the bed, hearing the small clicking sound of my shoes hitting the wooden floor. My heart would jolt in panic as I could still feel the burning in my chest. My legs felt so weak, but I had to move. I didn't know where I was or what was about to happen. I walked only to see this large life size mirror. My eyes would widen as I saw my own reflection. Blood covered the front of my dress, dirt, mud, and blood covered my boots...the center of my dress was torn from where I had been stabbed...but the skin was covered by taped down bandages. My hair was a mess, I had some how gotten a bruise on my left check...I must have hit something else when I was knocked into that tree. I would look around only finding one door within the entire room. I would carefully open the door, seeing the stairs. I would slowly walk down the few steps and got a better look at where I was...I was in LJ's world" So he really did take me here...I'm guessing that Emily is here somewhere..." I would say to myself in a soft and weak voice. Just then I remembered that one room that one girl named Chris was in...I was curios. I had a hunch that LJ and Emily where in that same tent that LJ showed me the last time I was here. I would walk around aimlessly for a few minutes before finally finding the tents" God walking is becoming a chore." I would whisper under my breath before I would quickly become quite upon hearing the high pitched scream of a female...Yep. Emily was here. I would slowly walk towards the sound, and sure enough my hunch was right. Emily was chained to the wheel, and LJ was standing in front of her with a hammer in his right hand. Emily's left arm looked as if it had been broken, it was beyond swollen, her legs were covered in bruises and small cuts, she had tears streaming down her face as LJ would put the hammer back down on his small table that had all of his torment devices" I know that you have more then just that to tell me dear Emily." LJ would say in a grim but soft voice before he would begin to chuckle. By this point Emily and LJ didn't notice that I was watching them" I TOLD YOU THATS ALL I KNOW YOU SICK FREAK! YOU SHOULD BE PRASING ME! NOT PUNISHING ME!!!!!!" Emily would scream at LJ. He would give her a big smile" Praise you? For what? You've done no good for this world! All you have caused is chaos, and used my little sister! You dragged her along in your little game! I know that there is more to this then what your saying! You can't fool me kid!" LJ would say in a laughing tone as he would pick up a simple small knife from his table. Emily would give LJ a confused and worried look" Your sister?! WAIT! MERCY IS YOUR SISTER?!!!!!!! HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY HAVE A SISTER?!" Emily would shout at LJ as loud as she could...Wait what" Yes. She is. She is my father Adrian's blood daughter. There for...She is my sister." LJ would explain in a serious tone before he would start to laugh" But that doesn't matter! Your going to die and you'll never be able to tell another soul about it!" LJ would shout at Emily in a laughing tone. I would watch in shock...Sister...Adrian's daughter?! Wait!? Hatter was my father?! How?! When was this!? How could he be my father?! This couldn't be possible! A few tears would form in my eyes as I would cover my mouth with both hands and stare at Emily who then notice me" YOUR STILL ALIVE???!!!!" Emily would shout towards me. LJ would suddenly become motionless, and his arms would drop. As LJ dropped the knife he would slowly turn his head towards me, a large frown on his face, his eyes had changed to a bright red. He would then glare towards Emily. LJ would then look at me once again, the look on his face calming down before he would sigh. LJ would vanish and then appear directly in front of me. I took a step back. The pain in my chest was so bad I couldn't jump back. I would place my arms down, almost scared as to what he was going to say after what I had heard" How much did you hear? What did you see?" LJ would ask in a serious tone as he crossed his arms...Oh no. A few tears would slide down my face, but I quickly wiped them away" Just the sister part...I didn't see anything. I walked over this way because I heard screaming...I thought you would be here...I wanted to leave...My chest still hurts and its hard to walk around." I would explain in a soft and slightly worried tone...for the first time in a while I was worried as to what someone's reaction was going to be...He saved my life yet again, and now suddenly I find out he's my brother?! How long did he know this? Was he still planning my death in the end of this? Did he always know this?... I would look down" Oh...So your wound still hasn't healed? I'm guessing that herbal mix wont work this time. We'll need to go to Hatters shop and see what to do." LJ would say in a calm and worried tone..." Is it true?" I would ask in a sad voice. LJ would stay silent for a good 5 minutes before he would decide to speak" Yes...We have a lot to talk about. Hatter can explain it to you...I know...I'm upset I didn't know when this all started. If I had known...I would have never appeared at your house the first time. Hell I wouldn't have pulled you into my room before you escaped the mansion...The thought of your death...and remembering all your previous deaths...It's very hard for me not to protect you now Mercy...It goes against my job. But I can't kill you or watch you die." LJ would say in a sad tone" How long have you known this?..." I would ask in a soft and sad tone. LJ would look down" I found out when we had to take you to the Under Takers shop after Jeff tried to kill you. Hatter told me while you were knocked out in that coffin...Honestly I didn't want to believe it. I didn't want to accept that this entire time I had been trying to kill my sister! I...I don't think I can ever forgive myself for what I have allowed to happen. "LJ would say in a sad tone as a few tears would go down his face.
I would grab LJ's left arm with my right hand. LJ would look down at me, his eyes had turned a bright blue as the tears went down his face" I-It's not your fault! You didn't know any of this would happen...No one knew that this would happen...I...I never knew you were my brother...But if you are...I'm sorry for all the things that have happened. Please d-don't blame yourself when you've only been doing your job! I don't see you as evil, I don't see you as my enemy...Actually...I've been starting to think of you and BEN as my friends." I would say in a worried and kind tone. LJ's eyes would widen in shock" I know you told me that you were only trying to lure me to my death...I understood that the reason why you and BEN hung around me because you were watching me...to make sure I kept my mouth shut...I know. But somehow...I have begun to see you guys as my friends. You saved my life twice now. You chose to help me. You chose to show me new things. You didn't just leave me there to suffer alone...You actually helped me...like real friends do...I don't remember much about my family...I hardly remember much about my twin sister. I didn't know who my physical father was until now...I remember my step father...and there is something else that I have begun to remember...That red haired woman...Mary. She use to be my step mother." I would say in a sad but somehow happy tone. Some how finding this out made me happy. Yes I was upset that I never knew I had a brother all this time...but I was happy that I was able to met him. Even if it was like this. LJ was more then surprised by my words and before I knew it...he had pulled me into a hug" All this time...All this death, all this chaos, all this violence...All these threats that are made against you. You found your way back into this world...You are lost. Your memories are a blur to you...I know they are...I remember things like this happening once before. You found a way to survive...And I'm sure glad you did...I'm glad after all these life times...My other sisters finally come back." LJ would explain in a sad but happy tone. I was shocked, but would hug him back" I'm glad that I know now...Even if things are like this." I would say in a happy and weak tone. I could feel the burning in my chest getting worse as I stood there. My legs started to shake as I let go of LJ. He would look at me surprised" S-Sorry...I can't keep standing like this. M-My chest hurts so bad! I feel like I'm going to pass out on the ground." I would explain as I placed both hands on my chest and grit my teeth in pain. By this point I noticed that blood was starting to leak from my bandages" HA! IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU DO NOW!!! MARY'S PLAN WILL WORK AND WHEN SHES DEAD WE'LL USE HER SOUL TO JOIN THE PROXIES!!!" Emily would scream at me and LJ...God she had to be completely delusional. LJ would quickly glare at Emily" I don't have time to humor the shit that comes out of your mouth. I have some things that need to be taken care of. I'll be back to finish what we started later dear Emily." LJ would say in a laughing tone as he would then look at me" Do you think you can walk?" LJ would ask in a serious tone. I would nod" F-For now I think I can. But I'm not sure how much longer I can handle this." I would say in a shaky tone. LJ would nod and would leave the tent. I would follow him, LJ made sure to walk slowly so that I could keep up with him. LJ would stop and open this black and white portal" This portal will take us to the Under Taker shop. I'm sure Hatter will know what to do." LJ would say in a serious tone. I would simply nod and follow him through the portal.
On the other side was the inside of Hatter's shop. Hatter was sitting at his desk writing with his quill pen on some paper. I slowly but surely made my way to his desk along with LJ. Hatter instantly looked at us" Mercy? LJ? Is something the matter?" Hatter would ask in a worried tone. LJ would nod" Mercy was stabbed in the chest. I put the healing herbal mix she normally uses on her wound, but it still hasn't healed. Mercy is also having a hard time walking. I almost had to carrier her here." LJ would explain in a serious tone...LJ was being more serious then he usual was. Was this what he was like when something bothered him? Hatter would instantly get up and walk over to me" Let me see." Hatter would say in a quick and grim tone. I would show him the bandages that were over the center of my chest" Hello to you too Hatter...or should I say...Dad?" I would say in a weak but serious tone. I could see Hatters eyes widen in shock at me" You...know I am your-" Hatter would try to say, with LJ cutting him off" When Mercy woke up she over heard a conversation I was having with my latest victim. I wasn't planning on telling her...That's just how it played out." LJ would explain...Hatter would look down at the ground frowning...It kind of made since to me...LJ acted almost like Hatter acted. I guess Hatters personality really did rub off onto his son. Hatter would look back at me with a serious look as he kneeled down to the level of my wound" I'm afraid I'll have to remove the bandages in order to see what kind of damage is happening to your body. Is that ok Mercy?" Hatter would ask in a worried tone. I would become silent" We can talk and explain about the family once we have gotten you fully healed. You don't need to be bleeding while we talk. If you die now I wont be able to explain to you why I chose not to tell you. I know it upsets you...that is clear enough...But please let me take care of your wounds...The heavy smell of blood troubles me..." Hatter would explain in a worried and pleading voice. I would nod" O-Ok...Only if you promise you will explain everything to me..."I would say in a soft but upset voice" I promise..." Hatter would say in a low voice" Sit down in my chair, while I take a look." Hatter would say in a calm and caring tone. I would nod and sit in Hatter leather chair that he would usually sit in. LJ would look at Hatter" I taped those bandages down so that the blood wouldn't seep through. I also sowed up the main wound so she wouldn't bleed to death. Be careful when removing them." LJ would explain in a worried tone. Hatter would simply nod as he carefully removed the bandages revealing my chest wound. The stitches that were holding it up had loosened, and blood was seeping out of them. I must have moved around to much...Hatter would stare at the wound for a few minutes before he would look at LJ" Do you happen to have the weapon that caused this wound?" Hatter would ask. LJ would shake his head" No. The daggers that were left at the scene should be at the mansion by now. But I do have the doll that they were trying to use against her. I was about to destroy it. " LJ would explain" I see...I'm going to have to remove these stitches Mercy...It wont feel pleasant but in order to understand how to heal you I need to see what is going on inside the wound." Hatter would say in a grim and serious tone" Why do you have to do that?! She might bleed to death if you do that!" LJ would shout at Hatter" JACK!...I have done this sort of thing before you ever came to this world. I know what I'm doing...If anything that bad were to happen when I remove her stitches I can always revive her. She is not going to die in my shop Jack." Hatter would say in a serious tone. LJ was thrown back by his worlds but would look down" Alright..." LJ would say in a sad tone. Hatter would sigh and then look at me" Mercy. This is going to be painful. But I promise I will get some things to stop your bleeding before I start. Stay here, and stay still. Try not to move around. Your moving seems to have made the stitches loose...So you need to stay still ok?" Hatter would ask me in a serious voice. I would nod" I understand..." I would say in a calm and tired tone. Hatter would vanish and then re appear about 5 minutes later with a large black wooden box that said : Medical supplies: on the box in red letters. He would sit the box on the floor and would open it...I saw nothing in the box...only a void, as if there was infinite space within that box. Hatter would reach into the box and pull out a pair of silver scissors...So it was a box of infinite items...Hatter always had the strangest things in this place. I was always left to wonder how he got some of these things. Hatter would snap his fingers and suddenly the chair I was in would rise to where Hatter could reach my stitches...Yep. He had the strangest items...Wish I had a chair that would go this high. I wish I could do that. Hatter would look at me" Try not to flinch, I'm going to do this so that you don't have to remove your cloths. Grip the arms of the chair if you have to. But do your best not to move or jolt." Hatter would say in a serious tone" I forgot your chair could do that...So you still like to be high and mighty on that throne huh?" LJ would ask in a half joking tone" I must focus son. She is in bad condition...If I don't focus it wont be much longer until she dies." Hatter would say in a serious tone. LJ would look down and nod as Hatter would take the scissors and would start to carefully cut off my stitches. I would grit my teeth as he carefully pulled out each stitch that he cut. It took him about 5 minutes to remove them all. I would look down and see a black rim around the edge of my wound that the thick stitches were hiding...Holy shit" I'm going to have to open the wound to see your chest cavity. I want to make sure that the black rim is all you have...There might be some damage on the inside that I might have to cut away and remove." Hatter would explain" Hatter! You know damn well I wont be able to stay still for that!" I would say in a slightly panicking voice. There was no way I could handle him pulling my wound opening without moving" Jack. Hold her arms down so that I can see the rest of the damage." Hatter would say in a serious and quick voice as he looked at LJ" I would usually get Grell to do this, but he's not here right now to assist me." Hatter would then say in a calm voice. LJ would sigh" Alright. Is that ok with you Mercy?" LJ would ask me" I-Its fine! There's nothing else to hold me down. And I don't want to hit Hatter, and make it any worse then it already is." I would stutter to say. LJ would nod and would walk over to me and Hatter. LJ would go behind the seat and he would forcefully hold my arms down" Hold yourself as still as you can Mercy." Hatter would say in a grim tone" Just get it over with!" I would say in a pain filled tone. Hatter would pull the wound apart as quickly as he could. Tears would pour down my face as Hatter would pull out a scalpel from the box and put the scissors back. I could feel as Hatter looked around and in side the wound and would start to cut off whatever black pieces of flesh, mussel, or any other tissue he found. Hatter put what ever he cut off onto his desk. I tried not to look, my body shaking from the pain I would try my best not to whine" Its going to be ok Mercy. It looks like he's about done with this part." LJ would say trying to comfort me" S-Speak for yourself. Every last moment of this only helps remind me why I know how to force myself through the pain...I know it will be over...I know the pain will end soon...It might take time but soon..." I would say trying not to burst into tears. About 2 minutes later Hatter stopped" Alright. I don't see anything else that rotting. I now know what type of metal came in contact with you at least. Let sow up the wound and get some of that healing mix I taught you how to make and fix this. I might have to get a blood pack for you...I can tell you body is running dangerously low on blood. I'm surprised that your still awake." Hatter would explain as he would put the scalpel away and would pull out a needle and some surgical thread" The mix should heal it completely without the new stitches...But just to be sure I'm sowing the wound back together." Hatter would say as he would begin to sow my chest wound shut. I would grit my teeth in pain until the pain was so bad that it finally went numb" Your lucky that blade didn't hit your heart...if it did...you would not have survived. There would have been no way to keep you alive." Hatter would explain as he was only half way done with the stitches" Great to hear! R-Really! What wonderful words to hear!" I would say in a sarcastic voice as I grit my teeth" Heh still as sarcastic as ever Mercy? I'm glad you can still see the humor in death even after all that's happened." Hatter would lightly smile. LJ would look at Hatter both in confusion and anger" Heh! What can I say? There's just no more Mercy in this world! I can't show you Mercy from my sarcastic joke if there is no Mercy to be given!" I would say in a half joking tone. God those had to be the worst jokes I've ever told. Hatter would chuckle as he finished sowing my wound" Very amusing Mercy! But it looks like you've been found!" Hatter would say in a joking tone as LJ would let go of my arms" Oh my god dad! Even I thought that one was bad!" LJ would say in an annoyed and chuckling tone as a smile would go across his face" Your smiling aren't you?" Hatter would ask in a chuckling voice as he would pull out a jar of herbal mix. It looked like the same stuff that he told me how to make" I am smiling! And I hate it!" LJ would say in a joking tone as Hatter would open the jar. I would lightly laugh at their words before Hatter would place a thick amount of the herbal mix onto my wound. It would instantly burn, and I could feel the wound healing. I would grit my teeth" Son of a! Damn it! I keep forgetting how much this stuff hurts!" I would slightly shout" Sorry Mercy...I should have warned you." Hatter would apologize in a worried voice" No. Its ok. It always hurts. No matter what kind of wound it is." I would say as I would slowly get up from the chair. Hatter would help me keep my balance while I tested to see if I could walk.
It took me about 5 minutes to get the hang of it again, but eventually walking was pretty easy. I would look at LJ" So where is my stuff?" I would ask in a blunt tone" Oh. BEN should be here soon to give them to Hatter" LJ would explain" Oh I already got them. They are under my desk. I will give them to Mercy before she leaves...Mercy...Jack. Can you two explain to me what exactly happen?" Hatter would ask in a serious voice.. Me and LJ would nod and would start to explain to him what happened start to finish.
It took about 30 minutes to explain everything as well as to explain to each other how we got involved in the situation, and why we where there.
Hatter listened and would frown once we had finished explaining" So Tod is a threat...His obsession has gone way to far. It almost got Mercy killed. Along with Emily and this Bloody Mary woman's revenge plan. Its very obvious to me that Emily, Tod, and Mary were all behind the bigger parts of this. Though I don't understand why Mary took Tod and left Emily to basically die." Hatter would say in a concerned tone. LJ would nod" Yeah, I'm not sure if they wanted to start this just because they didn't like Mercy, or if there was more to it then that. Tod's obsession seems to have blinded him, Emily's greed has turned her into a selfish bratty adult that wants everything to be about her. While interrogating her, Emily made remarks about saying that I should praise her, and that the other creepypasta's wouldn't care for mine and BEN's actions. I told her that they had been watching everything that had happened to Mercy and that Slender actually was telling me to do my job. And part of my job was to make sure to stop her and her group. But Emily wouldn't hear it, she just kept screaming at me to praise her. She has a very revolting view of the world. As well as a disturbing view on what creepy pastas are suppose to be." LJ would say in a calm tone" Emily has never thought of people other then herself before. She only thinks about people when she can use them." I would explain in a sighing tone. LJ would look at me" That reminds me...Why did you put up with that all these years? She's told me how long she's known you, and yet you were still friends with her a long time. She used you for what she wanted...But you stayed friends with her. Well of coarse until she tricked you into opening that portal." LJ would say questioning me...It was strange how he was now worried about me. I would cross my arms" Emily...Told me she accepted me for who I was...She said she supported what I stood for, that she cared about me and my well being. She would visit me more often then other people...She also let me barrow a car that belonged to her mother. Her parents were much nicer then she ever was though. When ever I came over they would offer snacks, games...books...many things. I feel really bad for Emily's parents...They gave her everything she could ever want...But she still turned out this way...I just don't understand why...If I had a family like hers back in the day...I would have held onto it as tightly as I could and wouldn't just expect everything from them. They were nice people...But over the years I learned that Emily wasn't. Her friends would pick on me and she would laugh at me with them. I didn't really know what to do...I didn't understand if she was truly my friend or not. But now I know...We were never friends in the first place." I would explain in a sighing and sad tone" Though...Some people can get use to abusive relationships...even abusive friendships." I would then say in a sighing tone. LJ would nod and frown" You shouldn't let people use you like that Mercy...It could get you killed." LJ would say in a worried voice. I would sigh as Hatter would look at LJ before he would look at me" Alright. Now that, that is out of the way...You wanted answers...Right Mercy?" Hatter would ask in a calm but concerned tone. I would nod.
Hatter would then start to talk about how I was related to him and LJ. Hatter told me how he met my real mother and had me and my twin sister. He explained how he knew where my twin sister was and how she had been working for Slender for quite some time. He then began to explain the family braches and who was from what branch" Alright lets see. There's the Vampiric branch. Which is my side of the family. Which in that side there's me, Kira, Jack, Tomas, Razor, and of coarse you. And my wife...Your mother is from an old royal dragon blood line." He would start to explain...Dragon?...How did that mix in there?! Hatter would then pull out his quill pen and some blank paper and began to draw a diagram" And then there's my brother Fair's side of the family which is considered to be the Elven branch. His side of the blood line is considered to be of royalty. He has 5 sons, BEN, Darc, Link, Lyin, and David. And he had one daughter by the name of Arwen. My brother's wife is from a fay blood line and her name is Donna" Hatter would say as he would write down their names on the diagram" Then there's my sister Amelia's side of the blood line. She's the demon side of the blood line. Her husband's name is Mort and he is a pure blood demon. They have 5 sons, and 1 daughter. Their son's Sebastian, Ciel, Claude, and Alois work for their own organization that their other brother Jack runs. Jack is also the current king of Hell city. Jack also has children of his own with his wife Sya! 2 daughters and a son!" Hatter would say in a laughing tone. My eyes would widen" Holy shit Hatter! That's a lot of family members! Hell half of these people I already know!" I would say to him in an annoyed voice. LJ would chuckle as Hatter would fold his hands and smile" There are still 2 branches I haven't explained to you yet Mercy!" Hatter would laugh" Bloody hell Hatter how many branches of this blood line are there?!" I would slightly shout at him. Trying to comprehend what he was explaining to me" Well. There is also my others sisters side of the family, her name ironically is Alice. She's from the angel side of the blood line. She has 2 daughters and 1 son. She left her husband a long time ago though...And both her daughters were stripped of their immortality and are no longer living as far as I am aware of. Her son however is alive. But he has lost his mind, he keeps trying to burn things that are impure to him. He's actually against almost everyone of the other branches because he can't accept that he isn't 100 percent angle!" Hatter would then say in a annoyed but laughing tone. I would face palm and sigh as LJ would laugh" Yeah! That nut job is crazier then anyone from this branch of the family!!" LJ would say in a laughing tone" There is also the blood line that is usually kept a secret. My brother Sesale...He is from the shape shifting part of the blood line. A lot of people call this branch the creator and destroyer side of the family..They are known for their destruction....The less questions asked about this branch the better." Hatter would explain in a calmer voice. LJ would become quite. By this point I was confused" So is there anything that each branch is known for? Or is it just the Shape shifting branch?" I would ask in a curios tone" Oh! Lets see! The Elven branch is known for being proud rulers and warriors. As well as their extensive knowledge. While the Demon branch is know for their royalty. They are considered to be the purest of the entire families mixed blood! They are well known for their royal status. Much better known then the Elven side is. Lets see...there are 3 branches considered to be of royalty. That's the Elven, Demon, and the Vampiric branches!" Hatter would explain in a happy tone" But...What are the angel and vampiric branches known for?" I would ask in a confused tone" The angel branch was known for how peaceful they were. But now they are remembered for how quickly the family of this branch fell apart. The Vampiric branch however is known for Fallen kings." Hatter would explain in a calm almost emotionless tone" Fallen kings?" I would question Hatter. LJ would sigh" Well because our family is also known for creating many worlds, we are also known for dethroning leaders, and other people. We come back even after our kingdoms fall. Yes a lot of the other branches have been know for this as well...But us. Well its happened so much that they started to call us king killers, or Fallen kings. Some have called us the reapers of kingdoms. Though its no surprise to me. Most of us work behind the scenes and only appear when we have to. And then there are a few family members in this branch that are so well known, that many people fear the very sight of them. I am an example of one of those family members. While my twin Tomas usually hides behind the scenes he creates. I am usually up front and in the open unless it involves the work I do for Slender and the rest of the proxys." LJ would explain in a serious but calm tone. I had so many new questions that I couldn't figure out which one I wanted to ask first" How many of the family members from this branch are known for that?" I would ask in a curios tone. Hatter would look at me with a serious look" There are 3. One being myself. Then of coarse Jack. And then there's you Mercy." Hatter would say in a calm and cold tone. I would look at him confused" Me?" I would question him. LJ would nod" Well we already found out which family member Kira was. And Tomas and Razor have never been known to cause such chaos out in the open. They use to stay behind the scenes way back when. The only logical answer to the question is you. Even though all the family is known for some type of madness or sanity. There are only a hand full of people in the entire blood line that produces both madness and sanity energy. And you and me happen to be 2 of those people. I know this because Kira only produces sanity energy. But there is something you have that only about 3 people in the entire family have. And that is a Nightmare and Dream side of yourself." LJ would explain in a sighing tone...This was all confusing to me. So many questions, but not enough time to ask them all. I would place my right hand on the top of my forehead in confusion" I think I'm starting to understand...But there are so many questions running through my mind. I have so many questions..." I would say in a sighing tone. LJ would shrug" Well those are the basic things about our family. You can always ask about things that confuse you as far as that goes. I guess I should help Hatter explain more...Well other then the branches, our family is known for working within the realms of Gaia, and are known for working for Gaia themselves. Though a lot of that also has to do with the beings of nature. Which if you want to know more about those things you would have to ask one personally. I can't really help you there. Well I could, but its not my place to reveal secrets that don't belong to me." LJ would say in a teasing and laughing tone" Jeez thanks for the help LJ. Now I have even more questions." I would say in a sighing tone before LJ would chuckle at me. Hatter would look at me and LJ" You need to try and remember who you are Mercy. There are many things that need to be tended to. A lot of things are falling out of balance. And I'm afraid that things aren't as simple as they try to seem. This goes a lot deeper then you think. Things are hanging by a thread Mercy. More then what's going on with Slender and the others. It goes beyond what you see." Hatter would explain in a serious tone. Now I was beyond confused. What did he mean by falling out of balance? I kept many different worlds balanced...what had I forgotten? LJ would look at Hatter" Nothings out of balance yet Hatter. It might be if we let our new enemy get away with their newest intentions. But things are in order for the moment." LJ would explain to Hatter" I hope your right Jack. Between the reports I have seen from the reapers organization, and the reports I have been receiving from Hell and Heaven cities. Things seem to be picking up in an odd way. Maybe its just the new awakening?" Hatter would say in a question. LJ would nod" Maybe. Though by this point we should already know what's causing it." LJ would reply in a calm and serious tone. I would sigh" Alright. I'm more confused then when I first came here. I think I'm going to need some time to think some of these things over." I would ask in a calm and sighing tone. LJ and Hatter would look at each other before looking at me. Hatter would reach under his desk and would pull out a large wooden box and would hand it to me. I would place the box on the floor and would open it. All my stuff was in it...everything I had left in my car...hell even my bag was in here. There was something strange in the box. It was a black leather bag that had a red mouth on the front of it with what looked to be a closed eye. I would pull out the new bag and look at it in confusion. It was a cool looking bag, don't get me wrong. But why was it in this box? I would look at Hatter in confusion" Why is this here? This wasn't in my car or with me earlier..." I would question both Hatter and LJ. LJ just shrugged his shoulders confused" No idea. I didn't put it there." LJ would say in a confused tone" I thought you could use a new bag. You've had that old bag for quite a while. It's pretty worn out. So I thought this would be a nice change of pace. Its also perfect for magickal use! I should know! I made it myself!" Hatter would say in a happy and proud tone as he would give me a big smile. I would smile and chuckle" Well I've got to hand it to you. Your pretty good at designing magick items. I love it. Its perfect Hatter. "I would say in a happy tone as I would put it back in the box" Oh! Don't put it away just yet! There's something in that bag you might find very useful right now!" Hatter would say in a quick but happy tone. Me and LJ would look at him confused before I would open the bag. In the bag was new outfit. It was simple, but at least it was clean...I was still covered in my own blood. I had lost so much blood...yet some how I was still standing. After all that I was still alive...It was a purple galaxy sailor fuku outfit with a few extra charms to it. The skirt was long enough to where it would most likely reach just past my thighs if I wore it. The top was short sleeved and black with galaxy designs. The outfit came with a bow for the top. In the center of the bow was a silver pin that looked like the happy and sad drama mask I had at home. There were a few black and white checkered heart patches on the top and on the skirt. The other things that came with the outfit were a new pair of black leggings, and galaxy striped thigh high socks, and a pair of new boots...how did all these things fit into that small bag? Well...It was made for magick use after all. Hatter always made the neatest things. The outfit was beautiful. I had never wore anything that had a galaxy pattern on it before. But some how this outfit caught my eye. I would stare in aw at the outfit" That outfit has a few benefits to it. It doesn't stain and is easy to clean. I thought you could use a new outfit. Something to help change the pace. I was saving it for a special time. But now that you are starting to come back...I thought it would be nice to give you an old outfit you once wore in your last life time. I did fix it a bit. I hope you don't mind Mercy. " Hatter would explain in a happy and cheerful tone. I would give Hatter a bright smile" This is so cool! I love the design. You always knew how to make the neatest things Hatter!...So you used an outfit from my past life to make this?...Do you have a lot of things I used to have?" I would ask in a curios tone. So some of the items I gathered in my past lives were kept...This one...It's designed seemed new. But it was obvious to me that it was much older then what it seemed...So magick items did last a long time. Hatter would nod" Only a few. Some that people tried to steal. That very outfit is from back in your reaper days. I have the few things you left behind from back then...But HE...has most if not all the other things you have left behind." Hatter would slightly explain. I would place the bag and outfit back in to the box" Reaper days?...I was once a reaper? When was this?" I would ask in a curios and confused tone" Yes! You were one of the best students Grell ever taught...but its been about a thousand years since you quite being a reaper. Things were just as complicated back then as they are now. But you remembered much more back then...so much more. I will tell you the story some day, or you can ask Grell some time. But for now. You need to go home. Get changed. And think about what you need to do next. Its your choice whether or not you want to remember. You can blind yourself to the truth and hide from reality...Or you can come back to us Mercy...But its all up to you." Hatter would say in a slightly sad tone before he would look at LJ. I would grab onto Hatters left sleeve with my right hand" Who is HE? Who were you talking about? Who has the things I have left behind?" I would ask in a soft and concerned voice. Hatter would look away from me" The god of this world is the one who has them." Hatter would say in a soft but cold tone. LJ would look at me as I let go of Hatters sleeve" The god of this world? Which god would that be Hatter?" I would ask in a confused tone. Hatter would look back at me, his eyes were slowly starting to glow yellow" It isn't any of the gods you've learned in books. HIS true name is something that people fear now. He goes by many names. Just as you do Mercy. You both know and don't know HIM at this moment. But I have to say...From what I am hearing. And from what just happened...I'd say he is getting closer to finding you." Hatter would say in a serious but soft tone. Finding me!? A god is looking for me?! What the hell!? Why?! What did I do?! LJ would sigh" Your only confusing her Dad. " LJ would say in a sighing tone. Hatter would then start laughing" I know! But I always love to watch a good story! Don't you?!" Hatter would ask LJ in a laughing tone. LJ would facepalm. I would wave my hands a bit" Wait. Wait. So your telling me, not only do I have this big family I'm just starting to learn about. There's a god looking for me during all this complication!? I mean one second I have this overly obsessed human stalking me, and now trying to kill me! Along with this group that are also trying to get rid of me, and want to use me! And plus I have to worry about the 'creepypastas' killing me! And now not only am I being watched! A god is looking for me!?" I would slightly shout in confusion. LJ and Hatter would look at me in surprise" Just what else is trying to kill me today?! What else could possibly be going on that will help add to the insanity of this complicated mess!?" I would slightly shout in slight frustration. Hatter would grab both his sides and would start to laugh at me" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! You worry to much Mercy! You should know better then anyone that things get more complicated before they start making since!" Hatter would say in a laughing tone. LJ would face palm once again" Dad. That's not helping." LJ would say before he would open a portal before picking up the box that had my stuff" Come on. I'll take you home. BEN should have already gotten your car to your house by now." LJ would say in a sighing tone...I was surprised that he wasn't laughing along with Hatter" I'll see you later Mercy! Make sure to put that bag to good use!" Hatter would say in a laughing tone. I would sigh and chuckle" Yeah. I will! Don't worry about that Hatter! See you later." I would say to Hatter before looking at LJ" Thanks LJ." I would say in a calm but kind tone" No problem." LJ would say as we would walk through the portal and leave.
The other side of the portal lead directly to my house" Wow...This is convenient." I would say in a calm and surprised tone as I walked up to my front door. The door was already unlock. I would slowly open the door only to see Jeff and BEN standing in the middle of my living room" Oh its only you two. For a minute I thought someone actually broke into my house." I would say in a calm tone as LJ would walk in" Is there a reason why you guys are here?" LJ would ask as he would put the box down onto the couch. BEN and Jeff would nod" Slender wanted us to make sure that Tod or Marry wouldn't try to use this place as a hiding place. He wanted to make sure that they left nothing here that could in any way work against our work." Jeff would explain in a calm tone before he would look at me confused" Why is she still wearing that torn up outfit?" Jeff would ask in a confused tone. I would roll my eyes" Because I just got back here. I haven't had the chance to take a bath and change." I would say in a sighing tone as I would open the box and pull out the outfit Hatter got me. Bow would run down the stairs and over to me. She kept bouncing around and pulling at my leg. Bow was trying to show that she was worried about me...I was still covered in my own blood...God I had to have looked terrible" Its ok Bow. I'm fine...Its just dried blood. Have you seen Tod come into our house today? Or a woman who called herself Bloody Marry?" I would ask Bow in a soft but serious tone, Bow would shake her head no" Good. If you ever see Tod at the front door kill him. In fact if you see him near our house at all get rid of him." I would say in a cold and serious tone. Bow would nod and would then jump around before looking at LJ, Jeff, and BEN...She finally spoke" You three are most interesting this time. No matter how many times this world repeats you always find yourselves back at our house. I do not know why you three like this house so much." Bow would say. Her voice was almost child like and sent a chill down BEN and Jeff's spines. LJ would just chuckle" So you can speak?" LJ would ask in a happy tone as he kneeled down in front of Bow. Bow would nod before she would run back upstairs. I would smile. At least Bow was starting to find the need to speak" That was just as creepy as Sally's doll..." Jeff would mutter as he would awkwardly scratch the back of his head with his left hand. BEN would nod" Yeah...Only the voice is a young females voice..." BEN would say in a slightly creeped out tone. LJ would laugh at BEN and Jeff as I would go through the box...yep everything was there...even my sword. I would pick the box up and would start walking up the stairs" I'm going to go take a bath and a shower. You 3 can play video games if you want. I need to get all this blood off me." I would say in a sighing and tired tone. They would all agree as I went upstairs.
After about an hour soak in the bath, and a long shower I had gotten all the blood off and was finally clean. Once I was dry I would put on the galaxy outfit that Hatter gave me and would go down stairs. BEN and Jeff were playing against each other in some old sonic game I had. While LJ was eating candy watching them cuss each other out as they played. What was I going to do? There was so much going on in my head that I didn't understand how to feel. I would watch them...somehow I felt almost sad. LJ would look away from BEN and Jeff and noticed that I was standing in the middle of the stairs, staring at them. LJ would get up and would walk over to the end of the stairs and place his hands on his hips" That outfit suites you! Hatter's out done himself!" LJ would say in a chuckling tone as he would lightly smile at me. BEN and Jeff were to busy trying to beat each other in their game match, that they didn't hear me or LJ. I would nod and smile" Yeah! I really like the outfit!" I would say in a cheerful tone. LJ would then put his arms down as I walked down the rest of the stairs. LJ would frown" So...Have you decided?" LJ would ask in a calm and serious tone. I would look at LJ confused" On what exactly?" I would ask in a worried tone" Do you want to remember who you truly are?" LJ would ask in a blunt tone. I would look away from LJ and down at the ground. LJ would place his hand on my left shoulder" I know things are complicated. I know reality hurts. I know...As an immortal, it some times is hard even for me to swallow the reality of what I am and what I have done and who I have known...But you can't hide from it forever. All memories come back in the end and repeat themselves until you face them. Believe it or not, your not as bad as you make yourself out to be...Mercy. My dear sister. You are so much more then what you make yourself out to be. If you can forgive those who wish your death and still try to protect those same people...Then you can face your biggest obstacle. Yourself." LJ would say in both a serious and kind tone. I would look at LJ in shock...He already understood why I was trying to forget. He figured it out so quickly...He saw past part of the mask I hid behind. He was right...If I wanted to make any of this right. If I wanted to fix my mistakes...I needed to remember who I was, I needed to face who I was and what I was now. Even if I end up dying in the end...I needed to remember" Alright...I'll try to remember. I'll do my best to try and understand the complication of all this..." I would say in a serious but truthful tone. LJ would smile" We'll help you...And if the others refuse to help...I and the rest of the family will try to help you." LJ would say in a kind tone. I would smile...Some how I understood what he meant...Heh. The family. God what a huge family...I would look over at BEN and Jeff" FUCK!" Jeff would shout as BEN had finally beaten him at the game they were playing" HAHAHAHAHA!" BEN would laugh as Jeff would let out an angry sigh" I won again!" BEN would gloat. Jeff would cross his arms and roll his eye" Oh fuck off! I won the last game!" Jeff would brag. A frown would form on BEN's face" I guess this means we know each others tactics..." BEN would say in a serious tone. Jeff would glare back at BEN, and for a moment the room was completely silent. Jeff and BEN would then both burst out into laughter at their own words" Your such an ass man!" Jeff would laugh" At least I know when its ok to show it!" BEN would laugh" Yeah right! Your just as bad as me!" Jeff would chuckle" Its one of the reasons why we're friends!" BEN would chuckle as they would fist bump each other. I would watch them in slight confusion" They always act like that when they play games. Talking shit is one of their favorite pass times." LJ would explain in a chuckling tone" Impressive..." I would mutter calmly. LJ would nod as I would walk over to BEN and Jeff" Well I see you two are having fun!" I would say with a smile as LJ walked over to us and stood beside me. BEN would smile as Jeff would chuckle" Hehe. Yeah...You um...Feeling any better?" Jeff would ask in a slightly worried tone. I would question his words as BEN would look at LJ" Yes. I actually feel a lot better...I'm tired. But I feel a lot better then I was feeling before...Thanks for asking..." I would say in a slightly worried tone. LJ would look at me" Are you sure? Your chest is feeling better? No more pain?" LJ would ask concerned" Well the inside of my chest still burns a bit...But nothing to major. Just soreness. But after all that, I'm not surprised that I'm sore." I would explain awkwardly. LJ would nod as BEN would look me" You sure that's all? You took a pretty hard blow. Do you still feel attached to that doll?" BEN would quickly ask" Well...I do still feel the lingering feeling of the attachment. But its not strong enough to have a major effect." I would explain. Jeff would sigh" Alright. Before we continue...Lets get the elephant out of the room." Jeff would say before he would sigh. I would look at him surprised, while the others looked confused" After what I just finished watching...after what we all saw. And it pisses me off to admit this...But I was wrong." Jeff would say in a sad tone. LJ and BEN would look at Jeff with pure shock. I was shocked to...So it did get to him" The solution to this problem wasn't to get rid of you. If anything, doing that only makes the situation worse. I don't think Slender and any of the others besides me, BEN, and LJ actually understand or see it that way. Truth be told I didn't see it that way ether...Not until now. I thought the solution to this was to get rid of you. To kill you and take your soul to keep it out of the enemies hands. We all at one point in time I thought that. But I see what Adrian means. Killing you would only give them what they wanted in the first place. I'm not sure why they want to use your soul. But so far they are so blinded by their hatred towards you that they are solely making their moves based on you. Even after you were suppose to die, they are still trying to use you as a way to get to us. They could have given up a long time ago, and found a different soul to use. But for some reason they keep coming after you...You are their target of interest. They knew we were going to kill you, but they still continued. Its obvious to me that they know more about you then they lead on. They wanted you. And I bet they still want you. And I know better then anyone that once people like that want something...They will do what ever they have to do to get it. They wont quit until they are dead. Even if you die they will still try to take your soul. There is nothing they wont try to take from you...Nothing they wont do to fulfill this fantasy of theirs. We can't let that happen. No matter what you have done, or what you have seen. What matters is the here and now. I couldn't give a god damn what you know about us. No amount of knowledge you have could make me justify killing you for that reason." Jeff would explain as he would look directly at me" So...I think it would be a good idea if we all work together on figuring out and fixing this situation. Your a witch right? You've worked with immortals before haven't you?" Jeff would then ask in a serious tone. Both BEN and LJ would look at Jeff" You really think Slender would allow that? After all that's happened? You think that Slender and the others would be willing to work with her to get rid of the alliance?!" BEN would ask in complete shock, almost not believing what he was hearing" I don't care what Slender or any of the others would think of it. She has 3 passes to be there without it being a problem anyways. The others no longer have a say when it comes to that. Slender told us to do what Adrian asked of us. And that was to protect her. He might have a problem with the idea. But we can face that problem once we go back tonight." Jeff would say grimly. LJ would cross his arms" That idea is all well and good. But how is asking her to work with us going to keep her protected? After her third day there she'll be a sitting duck! Everyone and anyone there would be able to cut off a piece of her without a problem. Not all the others know who she is. Not everyone watches the monitors." LJ would say with concern" We can protect her while she is there after that. There's only a few other people there who can even match our strength other then Slender." Jeff would say in a sighing tone. I would cross my arms" Do I not get a say in this?" I would ask in slight irritation. They would all look at me. Jeff would sigh and scratch the back of his head" Alright. Go on. Say what your thinking." Jeff would say in a sighing tone" I don't know if its a good idea or not. I think the idea of it works nicely. But there are a lot of things standing in the way of this plan you've come up with. Yes I have worked with immortals before. In fact...Its not like this is the first time an immortal has tried to kill me. I do have a basic idea on how to fix this situation. But just like you guys I still need more information. Their energy signatures are easy enough to get. But we have to figure out the reason and stomp it out before it spreads out even further. Like you said they are blinded by their hatred towards me. But if there is ever a moment where they aren't blinded by that, then they will be free to try to kill and take other souls in order to fulfill this desire they have. Their goal is to become proxies. But if things get any worse then this, then they could become an entirely different group of what they call proxies." I would explain in a serious tone. Jeff would look at me slightly impressed as he would point at me" See that's exactly what I'm getting at! You know how they act better then anyone else here. You already have an idea of what they can become and you know of their sick desires towards the proxies! You more then anyone could help with this situation! Just like many of us you can figure things out quickly. You catch on almost as quickly as Slender catches onto things! If we could just get into the heads of these people, I am sure that there is much more we could find out." Jeff would say with certain. BEN and LJ would look at each other before looking back at Jeff" Its rare when you agree with someone. Let alone work with anyone you just met." LJ would say in a curios tone" Well she does catch on quickly." BEN would state. LJ would nod" True." LJ would say calmly. An idea would pop into my head" Wait. There's a room in this house that might help. Come upstairs with me. I'll show you guys what I'm talking about." I would say in a happy but slightly grim tone. They would look at me confused, but would nod and follow me as I went upstairs to my work room. Under my chair at my work desk was a small door that lead into a secret room within the house. The secret room was the basement of the house. That an old set of stairs lead to. It was the only way in and out of the basement. Once we were in the study room, LJ, BEN and Jeff would look at me with confusion" But this room isn't secret. I've been in this room before. What room are you talking about Mercy?" LJ would ask in curiosity" Give me just a second LJ. I have to move my chair to get to it." I would explain as I moved the chair at my desk and would crouch down on the floor. There was a small wooden handle that most people wouldn't notice at first glance. It blend with the floor quite nicely. I would pull the handle revealing the door that lead down a set of stairs. LJ and BEN would look at me with shock. But Jeff didn't seem so surprised" Not surprising. You have a living voodoo doll, you practice magick, you deal with deadly creatures, and some how manage to study, and do any other work within that time. So I'm not surprised that there are secret doors that we haven't seen yet." Jeff would say in a calm tone as he crossed his arms" This is the old secret room I have found in this house. I'm sure there are more. But I haven't found them yet." I would explain in a calm tone before looking at LJ and BEN" Just watch your step. The last person I made walk down here some how broke their neck on the side of the wall." I would say in an emotionless tone. They would all question my words, but would continue to follow me down the stairs. The stairs lead into a large basement. The floors and walls were made of grey concrete. It was about half the size of the torture room that was at Slender mansion. Across the right side of the wall were chained cuffs that were attached to the wall. In the bottom right corner of the room was a large metal table with various tools, and other torture devices. Hanging from a set of the chains was a rotting corps of a man. He looked to be in his mid 30s, maybe early 40s. His peachy tan face was so mangled, there was no way of telling who he once was. Both is eyes were gone, and his tongue and teeth seemed to be missing. He had sort brown hair, with huge chunks of it missing from his head. He was wearing a torn blue t-shirt, and worn out blue jeans, and brown dress shoes. He had claw marks up and down his arms and across his chest. His blood looked really sticky and old. With a slight black color to it. Well...Looks like Bow was down here a few nights ago. BEN and LJ would look around in aw. Jeff seemed a bit surprised" Woah... What do you do with so much space Mer-" BEN would try to say only to cut himself off the moment he saw the corps" Oh." BEN would then say as LJ would look at the corps, and then would look at the tools on the table. LJ seemed confused for a moment before he would look at me" Mercy...Did you kill this man?" LJ would ask in a confused tone. BEN and Jeff would look at the corps a bit surprised" No. It wasn't there last time...Maybe Bow's been down here recently." I would say in a calm tone as I would walk over to the corps" How would Bow be capable of killing this man?" BEN would ask in a confused tone. LJ would think a moment before Jeff would sigh" Well it obviously wasn't from anything that's on the table. The tools on the table are clean." Jeff would point out the obvious" BOW!" I would shout as loud as I could. BEN would jolt from my shouting. The sound of bells could be heard off in the distance, as Bow would start to get closer. Within a few seconds Bow was running down the stairs and had sat down in front of us" Did you kill this thing Bow?" I would ask in a sighing tone. Bow nod happily. I would sigh as BEN's eyes would widen. It not like it was a real surprise. BEN, Jeff, and LJ all saw when Bow brought me back that one soul. I was guessing this dead corps was something Bow had been eating over a period of days" So how is Bow able to inflict such damage?" LJ would ask in a curios tone. Before I could explain. Bow would stand up and walk over to LJ" I have claws, and teeth!" She would say as she would show LJ her rows of razor sharp teeth. LJ would laugh" Fair enough!" LJ would chuckled. Jeff would cross his arms" So this doll is a physical blood creature? Does she eat?" Jeff would ask in confusion. I would nod" Yes. Bow has to eat blood in order to maintain her energy. She also eats flesh and bone from time to time. She uses the energy of these things to keep moving. Bow does need a break ever couple of months. I'll be trying to get her on a more practical schedule. To see if she can sleep like normal mortals do and still function." I would slightly explain as Bow would start running around the room" Why doesn't she eat normal food then if she turns it into energy?" Jeff would then ask" Normal food doesn't create enough energy for Bow to maintain herself. Whatever energy she would get from it wouldn't last long enough to keep her moving for more then 5 minutes. Plus her being able to use what ever deadly power she contains keeps me from having to worry about her turning against herself. It feeds her, and keeps her in check." I would explain in a calm tone" So why did you show us this room Mercy?" Jeff would ask in a curios tone" I brought you down here because I thought that you guys could maybe use this place as an interrogating room. For a temporary time. " I would slightly explain in a calm tone. LJ would smile" So you figured that by using this room you could avoid the dangers of going to the mansion?" LJ would ask in a chuckling tone...He figured that out almost instantly. I would sigh" Yes. That is part of it. But if we can use this room, no one from the mortal realms will be able to bother us. This room is sound proof. And I can place a dimensional opening that will allow you guys to come in and out of here without detection. You could open a portal to any dimension and no one, not even I would know your down here." I would explain. LJ, BEN, and Jeff would look at each other" That's not a bad idea. A quite place with no detection." BEN would say in a curious tone. Jeff would nod" I agree, this might not be as big as the torture room the mansion has, but it is sound proof. Not to mention there are already things here that we can use." Jeff would say agreeing with BEN. LJ would cross his arms and nod" Yes. It is nice. But there are still some things that need to be added. You don't mind if we add our own charm do you Mercy?" LJ would ask in a curios tone. I would shake my head" I don't mind. Do what you wish. Just let Bow do what she pleases with this place as well. She shouldn't have a problem with it." I would say in a calm tone. Jeff would look at me" Then its settled. We'll use this place and work together. What do you say partner?" Jeff would ask in a determined voice. LJ and BEN would both nod as Jeff reached his left hand out towards me" What do you say Mercy? Care to destroy their little world?" Jeff would ask, his smile. That look on his face was more then grim, more then determined to destroy alliance. Looking for blood and tears fall before his feet. The looks on BEN and LJ spoke the same. This moment. A moment to decide what needed to be done. What was to determine the fate of many...A choice that would stain us for life. Follow them and destroy many...or watch and wait for them to take me with the others that would fall? I would smile and grab Jeff's hand with my left hand" You've got yourself a deal Jeff. I'll work with you guys until its over. Then we can figure out what to do with the aftermath." I would say in a grim and deathly tone. BEN and LJ would smile along with me and Jeff. I could feel the cold chill go up my back. It was almost like I had done this sort of thing before. Something so close to knowing, yet still so far away.
~ Time skip 1 hour later~
I had explained to them the down sides of that room before they had left. The only down side of that room was that you couldn't hear what was going on through out the rest of that house when you were in that room. Just as you couldn't hear what ever was going on in that room when you weren't in it. They didn't seem to have a problem with it. As if they had some way around it. Once they left, Bow had went back down to the basement while I had went upstairs to play some of my video games. Things felt so weird. So strange to me...Something felt so different to me now. Somehow we went from being enemies...to friends. Where they my friends? Did Jeff really mean what he said? Was BEN and LJ really my friends now...And LJ...My brother. I had a brother, so many new family members. Since LJ was my brother, it meant that BEN was one of my many cousins. So confusing, but somehow...I understood. Thinking about it now...It was starting to make since to me. BEN was mad at me when we first met because he didn't like seeing people give up their lives. Jeff cried because he didn't like seeing people hold in their suffering. He wanted them to show and expose their true selves. But LJ...He was a mystery at first. So willing to show his world before killing what he brought in. He gave me a choice to die or to keep moving and live. He didn't let just anyone in in world. And he would destroy what was a threat to the ones he cared about. They were very much like siblings...Even though Jeff wasn't blood related to them, LJ and BEN treat him like family. They all were fighting to protect their own...Did it mean that when they came to save me that I was considered to be one of their own? That all these times they could and should have killed me...That they spared me because they cared? Was this what it was like to have family? Matty changed her ways, Bow woke and spoke for the first time in a while. The Undertaker...Adrian was a father that had been looking after me and checking on me this entire time...So many new thoughts. So many new things to try and understand. As if my memory loss was the only thing in the way. I wish...I wish I could remember them. I wish I could remember what I was to them...what they were to me. What was Slender to me in the past? Who were these people to me other then the same old friends that I had been trying to protect?
I would pause my game, hearing the sound of Bows bells as she ran down the stairs and over to me. She was jumping around and seemed more then happy as she waved her arms" He's here! He's here!" Bow would giggle. I looked at her confused" Who's here?" I would question Bow. She would look at me and stop dead in her tracks" Your God is here." Bow would say in a calmer tone. My God? Bow would run up the stairs. I quickly got up" W-Wait! Bow! Which do you mean by God?!" I would shout at her, but she did not return. I would sigh and walk up the stairs looking for her. I looked around my work room and found that the door that lead to the basement was open. I slowly walked down it" Bow?! Are you down here?!" I would shout as I went down the stairs. But there was no response. Once I was in the basement I saw Bow standing in the middle of the room. Looking at the wall. Slowly she would look back at me" HE knows where you are now." Bow would say in a happy tone. I would look at Bow with confusion, placing my hands on my hips" Bow. What did I tell you about trying to scare me." I would ask in a serious tone. Bow would start jumping around before she would run up the stairs and leave. I would sigh and shake my head" You can be so confusing some times Bow." I would say in a sighing tone as I would leave the basement.
I would hear a knock coming from the front door as I was leaving the work room. What was it this time? I would go down stairs into the living room, looking at the door. I reached for the door nob, hearing a high pitched ring. I hesitated. What was this feeling? This strange energy that I felt. Why was I hesitating now? Slowly turning the door nob, I would carefully open the door. There was nothing but a strange letter on the ground. Well this was one hell of a red flag. I looked around, but saw no one. I questioned this, but would pick up the letter. A plain white letter with a red wax seal. No return address, or anything to indicate who left it here. It had no energy signature, not even a stamp. I carefully opened the letter. Looking around, waiting for something bad to happen. After all that's happened, almost anything was possible. Nothing. Nothing destructive, deadly, or even unusual happened. It felt strangely calm. As if for that moment I could let my guard down without anything bad happening" What's that?" I would hear LJ's voice say from behind me. I jolted and jumped from LJ's sudden appearance. Quickly looking behind me" Holy shit!" I would slightly shout at him. LJ would laugh at me" HAHAHAHAAHAHA! Caught you off guard didn't I ?!" LJ would mock me in a laughing tone. I would pout before sighing" Letting my guard down was a bad idea..." I would mutter before going back to the letter. LJ would chuckle, trying to calm down as he looked at the letter" Well what is it? What does it say?" LJ would ask in curiosity" I'm not sure. I haven't read it yet. There's no address, no name. I heard a knock at the door and it was just here. Did you happen to see who left it when you were watching me?" I would ask in a confused tone. LJ would nod" I did see something strange on the monitors. There was a flash of blue blur at your door that had appeared before that letter was there. The same blur was seen in your basement shortly before it appeared at the door." LJ would explain in a calm and serious tone. I looked at him slightly surprised" Have you seen that blur here before?" I would as kin slight confusion. LJ would nod" More then a few times each day. I've seen it replace things you've broken, or find things that you've lost. We figured it was something you had made to help you with tasks..." LJ would explain. I looked at the letter, almost afraid to open it" No. I've never made such a thing. The only one who helps me with task is Bow...She can't turn into blurs...She uses shadows." I would explain in a slightly worried tone" I see...Well, might as well read what they've got to say." LJ would say in a calm but serious tone I would nod and slowly unfold the letter to read it:
My Dearest Love, Mercy. I long for the days to see you again. I've missed you. Waiting for you seems like an eternity. The dream realms, and memories have lead me back to you. I've been watching and waiting for you to come back. For you to remember this world and mine. But I see you've become stuck, trapped in an ever repeating loop of this life time. Trying to fix what they had destroyed of you. Within the next two days I will be coming. To take you home with me. To enter you into THE GAME so that you can slowly regain your memories back. It will take me two days to get everything ready for us. There will be guests, games, and entertainment. Please wait for me my love. With every waking hour I think about you. I long for your presence. I have seen you do your work, and I know you have a lot on your shoulders. Allow me to help you remember, so that you can believe again. There will be confusion. I understand if your scared after reading this. I am not the one who wishes to torment or defile you. Prepare yourself, for I will give you no other option. I will see you where no other dares to tread. I love you Mercy. ~ Signed HIM
: My face would flush red with both confusion, embarrassment, and slight fear. I dropped the letter almost instantly and would cover my face. Who wrote this?! Was it Tod?! No the hand writing was far to neat to be his. Why would someone write this to me? What did it mean by ' no other option." ? My mind was scattered, confused and scared as to what was to happen next. Could it be that God Adrian was talking about?? Certainly not...Who would write such a letter to me?! LJ would pick up the letter and read it. His eyes would widen before his right eye would twitch in slight frustration. I would quickly go inside and sit down on the couch. Covering my face with my hands. LJ would walk inside, closing the door behind him before he would walk over to the couch and sit down, letting out a sigh" Well looks like you have another admirer. It seems like we have more then just Tod to worry about." LJ would say in a sighing tone. I would shake my head" I don't want that...I don't want something else like Tod coming after me." I would complain. LJ would think for a moment and then lightly smile" Hey maybe its not like Tod. Maybe its that God?" LJ would question. I would look at LJ with confusion" Oh come on. You really think a God of any kind would have that much interest in a thing like me? I'm no goddess, I'm not immortal. Hell I'm not even god like! What kind of interest could a god possibly have with me?" I would ask in with slight fear. LJ would take a moment to think of the answer" Well, it honestly wouldn't surprise me. For a mortal you sure do a lot of the things that most immortals would do for this world. I mean come on Mercy, you've worked with immortals before, hell you at least try to fix the things around you. You can do things that most mortals couldn't even dream of doing! A god being interested in you would not be a far stretch by this point. I'm actually surprised you haven't had letters like this before. It didn't seem to be the same kind of obsession that Tod has with you." LJ would explain. I didn't understand...I was to scared to understand" I...I don't understand..." I would try to explain. Putting my hands down and looking at the floor. LJ would place his right hand on my left shoulder" What's not to understand? What about that being you told me and BEN about? What about him? Could the letter be from him? Is it really such a bad thing that there are actual people that want you like that? And no I'm not talking about Tod. His obsession has nothing to do with caring about you. He's doing it to fill his own sick desires." LJ would try to explain, I would get up" But that's just it. He wants me. He wants to hurt me, to use me like some type of doll or puppet. What if this god is the same as him? A god actually has power, and can bend and control the world around them! What if this is the same as that in a new way? A new way to try to use me...A new way to suffocate me? " I would ask, trying to hide my fear. LJ would stand up, giving me a serious look, both confused and concerned" Mercy?...Is that...Is that something your afraid of? Being used?" LJ Would ask with confusion. I would shake my head" No...Friends and family can use me...I have no problem with that...That's...That not what I'm afraid of..." I would say and look away from him. LJ's eyes would then widen as it would finally hit him" Your afraid of Love..." LJ would state in slight shock...He was right. I backed away a few steps still looking away, my body would slightly shake" Yeah...Its not something I want to get involved with...Friends and family are different...I don't have to worry about them taking all of me. Because I will never show those kinds of things to others. My desires...Are not for others to see or understand." I would try to explain. LJ would slowly walk up to me and would hug me. My eyes would widen in shock" Its going to be ok Sis. I will protect you from people like that." LJ would say before he would let go of me and smile" I mean after all, what are big brothers for? Its my job to protect you!" LJ would say in a chuckling tone as he gave me a big smile. It was surprising to me. He actually saw me as his sister...Even though we met through the hell those people started. We met on bad terms...yet he showed that he cared for me" If some thing like that ever happens you have permission to summon me!" LJ would say in a laughing tone. I would question him" What?! You would give me that kind of permission? And how in the world would I be able to summon you?" I would ask in confusion and shock. LJ would laugh at my reaction as he would pull out a piece of paper from his left pocket. The piece of paper had a strange symbol that looked like an operator symbol with a smiling mask in the center of it" With this symbol. Through out my immortality I had found a symbol that was able to move me to any location at any time. Some of the others also have a symbol that they use as well. Just do some blood magick and you've got yourself a quick summoning tool. Just um...Don't use it unless your in enough danger to need me." LJ would explain in a chuckling tone as he handed me the piece of paper with the symbol. I would take it and examine it" Huh...This is almost like summoning guardians, or gods...I can't say I summon things often...But...Thank you." I would say, slightly smiling at him. LJ would open a portal behind him, I could see that it lead to the mansion" Well I have to get back to work...We've got to tend to our 'guests'." LJ would say in a slightly blood thirsty tone as he gave me a crooked smile and wave to me. I would wave back at him" Have fun LJ." I said as he left. The portal vanishing the moment he entered it...
( 2 Day's later~) ( 4:30am)
" Get up! Get up!" I would hear Bow shouting at me with excitement as she jumped on top of my stomach. I quickly opened my eyes and looked over at Bow before I noticed the time" God...Why so early?" I muttered in slight anger as Bow would get off the bed and jump around on the floor. I slowly sat up and looked at Bow" Have you not been eating enough? Is that why you woke me up so early?" I would ask feeling tired and confused "It's open! It's open!" Bow would shout at me with excitement. I would sigh looking at the green plaid PJs I was wearing before looking back at Bow" Is it something that's going to hurt us?" I would ask. Bow would shake her head no" Is it one of the creepypasta's?"I then asked. Bow shook her head once again" Do I have to worry about this right now? "I would sigh. Bow shook her head once more. I would sigh and flop back" Then tell what ever it is that I'm trying to sleep." I would say as I would cuddle under the covers. Bow would look at the door and then at me. She would then jump onto the bed" Are you that tired Mercy?" Bow would ask in a worried voice. I would nod. The complicated things around me not only confused me, but stressed me out. After I read that letter I wasn't able to sleep very well. I had been up and down for the past 2 days from strange dreams and nightmares" Are you ok Mercy?" Bow would then ask" I'm fine Bow...But even I need my sleep. I haven't been able to sleep well for the past 2 days...I don't feel strong enough to get up right now. Please...What ever it is...Take care of it. Let me sleep...Please Bow." I would explain in a tired tone. Bow would flop down beside me" Ok. I'll guard you while you sleep!" Bow would say in a happy tone" Thank you Bow..."I would say as I closed my eyes and tried to go back to sleep.
( 10:30 am )
"Mercy? Have you had enough sleep?" Bow would lightly ask. The sound of her voice quickly woke me out of my sleep. Taking a moment to move myself around the bed, I slowly but surely would sit up" Yeah... I'm feeling a little better." I would say as I wiped my eyes. Trying my best to wake back up. Bow would jump down off the bed and walk over to the bed room door. Standing there as if she was waiting for me" It's still open Mercy." Bow would say in a calm tone before leaving the room. I didn't understand what she was talking about. All I could do was stare at the open bed room door" What's open?" I would question. I decided it was time to pick out an outfit and take a shower. I needed to clear my mind.
( 11:00 am)
After my shower I had dried off and got dressed.
