Hayley skipped to the kitchen and got a glass of water. She went to Slenderman's study and found him, sat at his desk, with his head in his hands. She placed the water on his bedside table, quietly, and massages his shoulders, gently. She felt him relax, and then he turned to her.
"Hayley..?" He asked, quietly. She hugged him tightly.
"What's wrong...?" She asked gently, rubbing his back.
He leant his head back slightly and looked into her eyes.
"I'm just trying to figure something out." He said. His tone was soft and Hayley tilted her head.
"Can I help?" She asked, curious.
He nodded and she looked at what he had to do.
She smiled and giggled softly.
What he had to do was a little bit difficult, but after a few minutes, they got it done. She wrapped her arms around him tightly and buried her face in his shoulder. He held her close, he felt protective of the young sixteen year old, in his arms. She smiled.
She realised that she finally had a family.She looked up at him, her eyes filling with tears.
"Hayley.... what's wrong..?" Slenderman asked her, worried. She hugged him tightly.
"Thank you.." She said in a whisper.
"What for...?" He asked, tilting his head.
"For letting me stay here. For helping me realise that I finally have a family. For helping me realise that I shouldn't listen to Alex or Blake..." She answered, hugging him tightly. She didn't want this moment to end. She felt safe when she was with him. She heard shouts from downstairs and they went to go and investigate.
They looked at the scene below them. Splendorman had got into another fight with Blake, and was wounded on the floor.
She ran to him, jumping the last four steps and landed beside him. Blake was covered in his blood, a knife in hand and a cold glare on his face.
Slenderman lost control and Hayley powered her curse into healing Splendorman.
This time, she didn't stop Slenderman. Instead, she grabbed the black, diamond ring out of her pocket and put it on. It changed itself into a blade and she charged at her brother, slicing his arms, his hands, his legs. Anywhere she could, until a bell tipped tentacle wrapped around her waist, gently pulling her towards Splendorman. She left the knife embedded deep into Blake's shoulder and hugged Splendorman tightly. Blake was screaming, but finally shut up after receiving a harsh blow across the face from Slenderman.
Hayley healed Splendorman to the best of her ability and guided him to her room to clean the rest of the cuts.He sat on her bed, carefully and took off his battered jacket, wincing.
"What happened..." She asked, cleaning the cuts on his arms.
He winced and looked into her eyes as his filled with tears.
She stroked his head gently and he smiled, despite himself.
She bandaged the cuts and hugged him.
He cried in her arms as she rocked him gently.
He sniffled, resting his head on her shoulder.
She sung softly as she bandaged his torso. He relaxed to the sound of her voice.
"What are you willing to lose?
You cover your wounds, but underneath them
A million voices in your head that whisper, "Stop, now"
Another twist of the knife, turn of the screws
It's all in your mind and it's fighting you
Arm yourself, a storm is coming
Well, kid, what you gonna do now?
It's your reflection looking back to pull you down
So are you gonna die today or make it out alive?
You gotta conquer the monster in your head and then you'll fly
Fly, phoenix, fly
It's time for a new empire
Go bury your demons then tear down the ceiling
Phoenix, fly..." She finished bandaging him and hugged him. He returned the hug and she said quietly;
"What happened.... what'd he do...." She bit her tongue but said nothing when he didn't answer.
"He was gonna hurt you. He said that he was gonna." He said finally.
She hugged him tightly.
"So I snapped. I couldn't let him hurt you." He continued, looking at the floor, guiltily.
