It was now just about 16 years later, Ashlynn was in the forest, doing her favorite hobby, metal detecting when suddenly she sees a woman in a pure white tank top getting chased by a woman wearing a striped shirt. Ashlynn dropped her metal detector, and grabbed her mini baseball- bat she had in her backpack and rushed over to the woman that was chasing the other. Ashlynn jumped swiftly and started banging the striped woman on the back side of the head. "WHAT THE HELL?!" She said as she has no idea what was happening, probably one of Slenderman's Proxies helping out Clockwork.

Clockwork stopped running, glancing back at what was happening to Stripes. Stripes fled, terrified of this strange teenager. "And don't think about tryin' that again, or else!" Ashlynn exclaimed, having the end of her basebat in her palm and she looked towards Clockwork. "Are you alright?" Ashlynn had asked Clockwork. "Yeah thanks, why did you help me?" Clockwork asked Ashlynn. " Well, I just couldn't do nothin." Ashlynn replied sarcastically.

Clockwork laughed. "I like the sarcasm, by the way I'm Clockwork." She told Ashlynn. "Oh yeah, I'm Ashlynn, good to meet ya." They both grinned and they hung out for a while before it started to reach sunset. "Well, I guess I gotta get back home before Dad worries, I'll maybe see you tommorow?" Ashlynn said. "Yeah, I should get back to my place, and maybe we'll meet again tommorow." Clockwork smiled.

Ashlynn waved goodbye and she rushed back to town.
