Dead Within but Still Alive

Chapter 2

He must have been carrying me for at least 30 minutes now.

"Can I please be put down?" I asked him for the 15th time.

"No we are almost there." He answered.

"Can you tell me your name then?" I whined.

"When we get there, then I can introduce everybody to you." He answered again.

"Fine." I said and gave up struggling I slumped over his shoulder and let my arms and legs dangle as he walk.

I wonder if hes tickle-ish. I slowly raised my arms and grasped his sides with my hands. Attempting to tickle him, but he didn't flinch and continued to ignore me. I then shoved my hand under his arm and tried to tickle him there, but it didn't work either. Then I thought of somewhere else. I quickly grabbed the back of his upper thigh and he jumped. I laughed as he put me down and pinned me to the nearest tree. He slammed a hand against the tree above my head.

"Please, do not do that again." He semi-begged/ semi-commanded.

"I wont," I began then leaned forward and put my mouth next to his ear," as long as you let me walk the rest of the way."

He stood up straight and grabbed my wrist," fine, but i'm still going to hold your wrist till we get there."

"Okei dokei." I said, and we continued walking.

After about a couple more minutes later, we approached an abandoned sort of looking mansion place. It was unremarkable-ly huge. I stared up in aw as we walked forward to the front door. The guy besides my pounded on the door three times then took out his knife and stabbed the door.

"WHAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!" I yelled.

He burst out laughing at my reaction as he yanked his knife back out of the door and a lock from inside clicked.

"We have many enemies so we need to make sure who ever is at the door is an ally." He reassured.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh" I responded and he pushed open the door as we walked in.

Inside looked even bigger then the outside, and don't let me to forget to mention all the "people" too. I only say ,"people" because I couldn't tell if half of them were human or not, but i didn't matter to me. If one has a personality, then they're a person to me.

"Ohh look Jeff is back!" Yelled a little girl, whom was covered in blood but who the hell cares, who was playing with her dolls next to the couch to my right in the living room.

" Hey, Jeff!" yelled a voice. Then I saw candy drop to the floor from the ceiling. I looked up and saw a black and white clown hanging from the chandelier above the bottom of the stairs, in front of were I was standing.

"He's back!" yelled another as I glanced them run into the kitchen which was just passed the dining room to my right.

" You still haven't died yet?" Yelled a girl from the top of the stairs as she walked by and down the other side of the hall.

"What crawled up her a**?" I whispered to The guy next to me named Jeff.

"She's always like that towards me." he replied, then turned the group whom greeted him and said," Guy's we've got a newcomer her name is Sera."

"Hey Sera!" They all yelled.

"Hi, nice to meet all of you!" I replied back then made a funny face that looked like this... (;p) I relaxed and turned to Jeff who tapped me on the shoulder.

" I am going to go get Slender, I'll be right back. Don't try to escape. There are many here who can one run faster then you and two kill you in an instant." He said.

" Wow, okay I'll stay put." I replied.

He walked off up the stairs and down the right hall. I sighed and walked over to the nearest window. How the hell did I end up here in the first place. I retraced the event of the evening and realized that I got myself into this mess and there is no way of getting out. Suddenly felt eyes on me and spun around. There was a Black and red husky dog behind me, with a wide grin across its face. Normal people would be scared but I thought he looked actually kind of cute.

I crouched down and put my hand towards him to pet him. He growled and I pulled my hand away. I let him sniff my hand for a second, then realizing that I wasn't an enemy, he jumped forward and pounced on me. I fell back and patted him on the head. I sat up and The dog laid in my lap. I petted him for maybe a few minutes or so when I heard someone say something.

"When I said not to move, I didn't literally mean not to move."

The dogs ear flicked up at the voice and he jumped up and ran cheerfully over to Jeff who was standing in front of me. The dog ran circles around him and I laughed as he almost knocked Jeff over.

" Stop it, Smile!" Jeff yelled.

I held out my hand and Jeff took it and helped me up," So his name is Smile? I can See that that's quite a suitable name for him."

Jeff laughed and then his face turned serious," Slender would like to see you in his room."

He was very serious now and he lead the way as we walked up the stairs and went down the right side of the hallway. There were many doors but as we walked we passed all of them till we can to the very last door. It was taller then the rest and I could see why when Jeff opened the door. There was a very tall man, No face, extremely pale, and wearing a suit, standing next to the bed. He finished pulling up the covers and walked over to us.

Suddenly a splitting headache surged through my head. After a minute or two went by the headache died down. I looked up and heard the man say," I see you can stand my presence. You may stay here till you know what you want to do."

Though he didn't have a mouth his words rung clear in my head. I turned to Jeff who was smiling gleefully.

"Ah, I guess thanks?" I replied.

"May I ask your name?" He said.

"It's Sera."I answered.

"Ah Sera, a beautiful name. My name in Slender Man, you may call my Slender." He finished.
