She ran back, through the tall, thick trees of the forest. She heard the familiar weeping of her father, and sprinted towards the noise.
Her father looked around, but did anything but see the young, dark-haired girl. The girl dived at her father and hugged him close.
"Daddy!!!" She cried out, her eyes filling with happiness and sorrow.
"Hayley!!" Her father exclaimed, taken aback by the inflexible, meaningful hug.
It was a hug, that he immediately returned, his own tears, falling, as the cold winter's breeze, blew around them. As if time had stood still, the two of them remained in the embrace of each other.

"It's been so long.... I've missed you, my angel..." Slenderman said softly.
"I've missed you too, daddy..."
The tall man, picked his daughter up, bridal style, and carried her inside.
"TRENDER!" Slenderman yelled, making the young girl whimper.
"Yes, brother? Oh sweet hell's story, Hayley!" Trenderman cried out.
"I want clothes for her, and also... A blanket. You know which one I mean..." Hayley's eyes darted between her fathers and her uncle, in confusion.

She could hear 'Candle Queen', coming from Sally's room, and she began to sing along, smiling.
"Toddler's cries that grow louder and louder
Relishing in untestable power
Glowing red in a black and white scene
The one and only candle queen
Stoking the flames that burn higher and higher
Royalty with a crown of fire
Setting ablaze an extravagant scene
The one and only candle queen
Addicted to adrenaline
And always looking for attention
Thought to be so genuine
When she's suddenly met with apprehension
The fighting has begun
And she'd do anything to get ahead
Like using people as ladder rungs
And sweeping eggshells under the bed."
Her father smiled, and after a few moments, Trenderman returned with clothes and a black fluffy blanket.
Hayley cuddled the blanket, as she headed to her room, to get changed.

She wrapped the blanket around her slim frame, and skipped to Splendorman's room

She wrapped the blanket around her slim frame, and skipped to Splendorman's room.
"Splendy..?" Her voice was gentle, quiet.
The polkadot suit was thrown on a chair, in the corner, and the once, always smiling, man, had been replaced with a silent, saddened person. He wore a grey hoodie with black jeans, and he sat on the window seat, gazing up at the stars.
The young, dark-haired girl, threw her arms around her uncle's neck and hugged him tightly, sobbing quietly.
"Slendrina, we all miss her... but... she's gone... it's been three months..." Splendorman said, his voice harder than stone.
"I missed you too." Hayley said softly, startling her uncle.
"T-this is a d-dream... r-right? I-I'm gonna w-wake up a-and you'll be g-gone.... " Splendorman said, looking into the oceanic eyes of his niece.
"It's not a dream Splendy."
Hayley's voice was gentle and patient and her delicate fingers caressed his cheek, wiping away Splendorman's tears.

"It's okay... I'm here now." She whispered softly, hugging him tightly.
