Accidental target (Eyeless Jack x reader)

Chapter 7: Familiar face

Great. Now you were stuck in a "mansion" with killers and psychopaths. What were you going to do now? I mean, Slender said they wouldn't hurt you... But ANYBODY could just say that! You'd be lying if you said that Slender's words didn't calm you down, they really did. 'I guess I should say hi and get to know everybody?', you sighed. Who should I start with?

You already met Masky and Hoodie. Their names were easy to remember since, well... They're ridiculous. The boy playing videogames greeted you when you came into the mansion... 'He should be the first one here, I guess'. You walked over to where he was sitting and awkwardly sat next to him, watching what he was playing. "Street fighter?", you question. "Heh, yeah. Classic", he responded. You fiddled with your fingers, getting a little nervous because of being social. "So, I'm (Y/n)", you told him. He looked at you, snickered, then looked back at the game. "I know", he said. You crossed your arms and gave him a look, "...And you are..?", you questioned. "Ben. Ben Drowned", he responded quickly. 'Dang, I guess he really doesn't wanna talk. Understandable", you get up and remember Slender told you that he got your room ready.

You chose to ask Masky about it since he seemed like he talked more than Hoodie. "Hey, uh, Masky?", you looked up at him. He was with Hoodie and some boy with a mouth guard. "Yeah? Waddya need?", he asked, puffing out smoke. "Oh, finally! (Y/n) (L/n), right? I'm Toby! How do you like it here? I can show you around if you'd like! What do you like to eat? We have lots of food so you'll be good. Oh! What do you think of us? Have you already met everybody except for m-", "Shut it, dumbass.", Masky cut Toby off. You couldn't help but laugh at how silly a murderer could be. "Nice to meet you, Toby", you smiled. Masky rolled his eyes. "What did you want to ask?", Masky continued. "Oh, uh... Oh yeah! Slenderman told me about a room he got ready for me. Do you know where it is?" you asked politely. He nodded and motioned for you to follow him.

It was on the 3rd floor, and when you opened the door to your room you were in awe. 'Oh my... Oh my god.... This looks amazing!', you thought to yourself. "You better like it, Jack and I put a lot of effort into moving shit around and cleaning", he joked. "wait... Jack?", he looked at you as if questioning you. "Eyeless Jack, to be precise. We got two. What, you know a Jack?", he leaned on the door frame. You don't have a friend named Jack but it feels like you've heard that name somewhere before. You just shrugged. "Speaking of Jacks, you should go meet them. One's in the basement and the other one is in the surgical room. You thanked him and went to the basement. I mean, it's not that hard to find, it IS a basement. You knocked on the door and heard a hyper 'who's there'. You answered and explained why you were here. The door opened. "Ooh, (Y/n), sweetie! Come in, come in... You came at the right time! The show's about to start!", a black and white clown greeted you. "I'm Laughing Jack! And this right here is George! He will be turning himself inside-out!" He enthusiastically said. "Uh.. W-What? I can't watch that...", you hoped it was some sort of joke, but this is a murder mansion we're talking about. "Awhh, are you sure, sweetheart?", you nodded, hands shaking. 'He promised they won't hurt me. He promised they won't hurt me', you kept repeating to yourself. "Welp, next time then! More blood for me!" He answered and let you out.

'phew!', you sighed in relief. 'Now, where is the other Jack? Surgical room I think?', you walked over to see Toby waving at you. "Hey! Toby, right?", you greeted. He seemed the friendliest. "Yup! Want some yogurt?", he asked. "Oh, no thank you. I just wanted to ask, do you know where the surgical room is?", he nodded and said, "Yeah, main hall, right then left. White door", he took a spoonful of his yogurt. "Okay, thanks Toby!", "anytime", he smiled and continued eating.

'Hmmm... now right... Then left...', you looked for a white door. '...Aha! There it is', you were getting kind of nervous, what if this guy mistakes you for a victim or something? Everybody seems to know who you are... Oh well. You knocked, and almost immediately, a nurse opens the door. She welcomes you in. "Here, sit on this chair right here", she gets you a pretty high chair. "The doctor will see you now", she smiles kindly. 'Oh boy. I've always hated doctors', you mentally pray for yourself. You saw a young-looking man with fluffy brown hair and... Grey skin... Black eye sockets? It looks like black substance is dripping from them... Almost like tears... Almost like.... Oh my god-

"Here you are, again. You'll never let me be, will you?", he laughed. I could see his sharp teeth. "YOU'RE Jack?", you put your hand on your mouth. "You got it", he simply answered. "Now, what's the problem?", he asked. "O-Oh! I just wanted to meet everybody. Masky told me to meet Laughing Jack and you", you explained. "ah, okay", there was silence.
"sorry for breaking into your house"
"it's okay"
"and for almost destroying your front lawn"
"that's fine"
"and for almost killing you"
"don't worry about th- wait what"
"not important"
"wait, you wante-"
"hey, at least I got you home safely"
"What? Wh-"
"not important"
"wh-"
"Okay, you should go now"
"but-"
"dinner's soon, byee"
You crossed your arms as he lets out a chuckle.
"could you at least tell me why... uh... I don't know... Asking why you murder people seems kind of dumb, doesn't it?", you said, lightly laughing.
"Yeah, it kinda does", he smiled.
"Well... I don't know. I'll just go now.",
you got up from the chair. "Tell the others I'll join you in a bit", he said before closing the door for you.

'man...'
