Chapter 5

I was shaking like crazy. I could barely hold the knife. My palms were sweaty. My skin was red, hot. Bullets of sweat were going down my face. I couldn't see anything. It was dark. The lights were off in the living room. I was too scared to walk to the other side of the room to turn them on. I was slowly walking into the room seeing nothing but pitch-black darkness. My breathing got out of control. Every creak I made with my step became closer and closer to the intruder. I could hear breathing in the room. I started hyperventilating.

I tried my best to stop but being in suspense like this was killing me. I needed to get some courage. "Whoever is in this house. Get the fuck out. We don't have money here or anything expensive lying around. You came to the wrong house. How weak do you look trying to murder a 17 year old girl. Stop with your creepy ass games and come out like a real man." I felt a little bit better, my breathing became softer and was in control again. I was still nervous though.

I heard a loud growl. It wasn't  a sound made from a person. The growl shook the whole room. I reached in my back pocket and pulled out my phone slowly. I put the flash on. What I saw next would scare me for life.

There was a large mammal sitting in the middle of the room. Maybe it was a dog, maybe a wolf, but it had to be a mutation of some type. It didn't even have a real face. Their face was made out of bone. There were 2 holes for eyes and a few cracks in the face. They had jet black hair going down its back and grey skin. Their claws were huge and the monster was about 6 feet tall. A feet taller than me. He sat on all fours and it's tail could reach the ceiling. He was humongous.

I almost passed out. I've never seen something as huge and ugly as this. I fell back onto the wall in horror. The lights were suddenly turned on. I looked around to see a figure at the light switch.

He was tall. A little taller than the monster sitting in the living room. Probably 7 feet tall. The tallest person I've ever seen was Chaz and he was only 6'0. The man wore a blue mask. There was black gook oozing out of eye holes in the mask. What the hell is that? There's literally black stuff dripping off of the blue mask. He had black jeans and a blue hoodie. Hold up. Blue hoodie. I stared at him intensely. That was the same man from the incident. He was the one who chased me and got hit by that car. He's the suspect of the murder.

"It's you again. Why are you here? And why do you have this monster? Where did you get him at? Is he from Earth? What is that crap coming out of your mask? Why do you even have a mask on I know what you look like. How did you turn off the house alar—"

"Stop" said the masked man. "Don't ever call him a monster. He's my pet. He wanted to tag along on this killing."

"Th- thh- th- t- th- this what? You're going to kill me?"

"Yes. Don't scream or he'll pounce on you."

He walked closer to me. I didn't know what to do. He grabbed the knife that was in my hand and threw it across the room. Well there's goes my only protection. He smacked my phone out of my other hand. And there goes my only way to get help. My stomach was in knots. What did I ever do to deserve this. He's going to cut me open alive. I opened my mouth and asked him.

"Wh- wh- w- why" "Why are you doing this to me."

He banged his fist against the wall, behind me. "YOU COULDN'T HAVE MINDED YOUR BUSINESS. You told the cops. You told them my description. You got me in trouble! Now I have to walk around in my real form. I got the Eye of Providence confiscated away from me by Slendy. So now I have to fulfill my task and kill you."

"The eye of what?"

"Be quiet. Your mother just opened her bathroom door. Say a word and she dies."

A few minutes went past. The masked man had one arm on the wall above me. His lower stomach was pressed against me. His other hand was on my arm squeezing it tightly. I'll admit I liked this position. I could feel his abs on my face. His body was hot against mine. His pet was beside the stairs ready to kill my mom if she came down. She yelled down the stairs.

"Amor did you put the groceries away?!"

"Yes ma."

She went back into her room where she was safe. The masked man looked down on me. He pulled out a scalpel. Usually you see scalpels in hospitals when they do surgery on patients.

"This is going to hurt"

He had the scalpel lined up with my heart. I flinched my eyes and moved my head to an angle. I was ready to die. I was waiting for the pain. Seconds went by and nothing. There was no movement. I opened my eyes. The masked man had the scalpel in his hand still but he was staring at my neck.

"I'll let you live for now. Don't tell anyone about this or I'll put you in a cage with my pet Seedeater over here. Stay safe mutt."

I was in shock. Why did he let me live? "I thought you were going to kill me."

"I was. I should but obviously you're not just a useless human. Slendy left that out when he gave me this damn task. Stay safe. Live out the rest of your teenage life before we have to take you, you'll never be the same after that."

I was so confused. What did he mean by that? What changed his mind so quickly? What does he mean by before he has to take me? But the only question that came out of my mouth was "Wait! What's your name?"

"Ej".

And with that, him and his giant pet ran out of the back door.
