I wake up with a start, sitting up quickly, clutching my chest, I breath heavily, I take a few moments to collect my thoughts, then I remember last night... Talking to that boy... What was his name again? Jack? This name sounds familiar... I throw off my covers and run over to my laptop decorated with my favorite character stickers... I flip it open and go to google...

"CreepyPasta"

I spell out loud as I type it in, I've caught glimpse of this site before, when I was bored last summer, now I can't stop reading the amazing stories about these guys, I then type in the name,

"Eyeless Jack"

Many pictures and exaggerated drawings of him appear, none of them actually look like him... I mean, he has a mask, so how would I know? The scratching in the back of my head returns as I look at a picture, his brown shaggy hair, light grey skin, shark like teeth and... sockets where his eyes would be...

I sat there and starred at the fan art of him, how this person drew him he looked rather....... I feel my cheeks heat up slightly and I quickly close my laptop and stare at the window, blinking a few times, I breath in then exhale. I stand up and walk over to my closet, pulling out random clothes and heading to the bathroom to take a shower...

After my shower I threw on my clothes and looked at myself in the mirror, I left my hair down for today instead of putting it in a messy bun or a pony tail, cause i'm wearing my gray beanie, I look at my clothes, I had a dark blue flannel on with a gray vest like jacket over it, I had my shaggy ripped blue jeans with my black combat boots,
((Feel free to change that if you like))
I look back up into my mirror starring at myself, I sigh, closing my eyes and taking in a deep breath, I reopen my eyes and almost screamed, mom scarred the deal outta me,

"Jesus mom! Don't scare me like that!" I let out a nervous laugh, she chuckles,

"Sorry, I was just coming to check on you... are you feeling alright today?" She asks, almost like something happened... well....... something did happen, but I don't want to tell her...

"Yea, I'm alright. Why?" I tilt my head slightly, asking the question,

"Well...." she pauses,
"Never mind... have fun today." She smiles, patting my shoulder and heading downstairs, "oh, and your breakfast is on the table!" She calls as she entered the kitchen,

"Thanks mom." I say as I walk down the stairs and to the dinning room, I look up as I sit in the chair where my food was, I look at mom to see her acting.... differently? Huh... I take a bite of my food, still studying her different movement,

"Are you alright sweet heart?" She asks, noticing my concentrated look,

"Yea.. but I should be asking you that question... you're acting like you've seen a ghost or something..." I say, taking another bite, I look back up at her, seeing her face kind of pale, so she did see something!
"What did you see mom?" I ask, standing up,

"I didnt see anything last night..." She says.... But I didnt say anything about last night...

"Mom."

"Yes?"

"I didnt say anything about last night... That there proves you seen something. Or.... Someone." I think to myself, I blink,

Did she see him too!?

I slightly freak out in my head, I hope she didnt call the police!!

She snaps me out of thought with a sigh,
"I um.... Saw an.... Old friend is all." She turns back around, washing a plate,

"An... Old friend? What's their name?"

She flinches at my question,
"Well, its been awhile, so I can't quite remember his name."

'His' name...?

"Was his name....." I pause,
"Jack?" I ask, almost scarred to hear her answer, she drops the plate she was washing as I said Jack's name, the shatter of the plate scares both me and her,

"I-i.... Um... No. Um...." She stuttered....

Liar...

"Dont you have a time set to go meet your friend?" She changes the subject, which reminded me,
"Oh god I forgot!!" I race to the stairs, but I stop just before I put my foot on the first step,
"This conversation isn't over just yet!" I state,
"I want answers woman!" I run up the stairs and into my room, she chuckles and starts cleaning up the broken plate.

I reach my room and grab my phone, I unlock it and look at my messages,

Sally- 5 unread messages,

"Jeez." I open up her messages,

Sally- Morning sunshine!
~1Hour~
Sally- Hey you up?
~30min~
Sally- WAKE UP BAKA
~23min~
Sally- i'mma come over there and wake you up myself woman!
~3min~
Sally- thats it! I'm coming over! You better be up!
~Just Now~

I laugh, I started to text her back, but before I could send it the door bell goes off,

Brrrriiiiiiiing!!

"Coming!" I hear my mother call, I smirk, I run over to my closet and I hide, knowing Sally was gonna come up and try to 'wake' me up,

A few seconds after my mother yells, I hear her talking to someone. The door closes and I hear footsteps running up the steps, I snicker, covering my mouth I wait patiently. Through the crack if my closet door I see Sally come into my room, I hear her huff,

"Dont you DARE scare me (y/n)!"
She yells, walking over to the side of my bed, looking over it, then just as she stood up I jump out of the closet,
"RA!!"

"AAHH!!!! WHAT DID I JUST TELL YOU!"
She yelled, tackling me, I laugh,
"I couldn't help myself!" I continue to laugh, she glares and then punches my arm, I calm my laughter to a chuckle, she stands up and so do I,

"You are very lucky today." Sally brushes herself off,

"And why's that?" I grin,

"Because I dont have my new dog with me." She grins, I blink, then I gasp,
"You got a new dog!?"

She nods, "yea! His name is Pit! Hes a black lab mixed with a pitbull. Hes so loveable and adorable!" She squeals,

"So... You're over.. Ya know..."

"Misty? I uh.... A little bit.... I mean I still miss her and will always miss her. She was a good dog..." Sally shakes her head,
"But I told myself its time to grow up and move on!"

"Um... But you ARE grown up..."

She pauses,
"Oh you know what I mean!" She crosses her arms over her chest, puffing out her cheeks, I chuckle,

"Well what are we waiting for! I wanna meet him!" I exclaim,

She chuckles with a bright smile,
"Then lets go!" She grabs my wrist and drags me out of my room, I tighten my grip around my phone as I shove it into my pocket, she pulls me to the stairs, and we almost fall down them, when we got to the bottom we laugh,

My mother looks at us worried,
"Are you two alright? Sounded like a stampede coming down the stairs!" Mother exclaims, which makes me and Sally laugh even more,

"We're alright Miss. (L/n)." Sally says, the first to calm her laughing, I shake my head,

"I'm just excited to meet her new dog, that's all." I add,

"Oh? Sally you got a new dog? That's quite soon." Mom blinks,

"Well... Misty is in a better place now... she was a loving, caring... good dog. But, the cycle of life can't be changed." Sally states rather smartly, I look at Sally,

"Ok.... who are you and where did you put my Sal..." I grin, she gives me a death glare, I snicker, and she punches me in the arm... again,
"Ow! Ok, sorry." I smile, she rolls her eyes,

"Anyways. Lets go see Pit." Sally smiles, dragging me outside,

"Bye mom! See you when I come back! I'll be home by 9! If not I'll sleep over at Sallys. Kay?" I ask mom, she nods with a smile, I return her smile with one of my own,

"Then lets go!" Sally pulls me out the door,

"Are you just going to pull me everywhere now?" I ask as I look at her death grip around my wrist, right when my front door closes Sally drags me far enough away, almost half way in between mine and her house, she stops,
"Uh... Sally? You alright?" She turns around and looks at me straight into my eyes,

"Ok... (Y/n)..... I need to tell you something." She glances around,

Wow.... that uh.... escalated quickly....

I thought,
"Someone's been stalking me, I don't know who, and I don't know why. But its fucking creepy."

"Woah... Sally using the F word.... that means serious..."

"Really!?" Sally looks at me,

"Sorry. Sorry. Continue."

"Look. I know how you can handle yourself. Remember how you took on three of the football players picking on the new kid?" I nod,
"Well I need that right now, that's the reason why I got Pitt. But.... he's still just a pup, so he won't be doing any harm to anyone with his cuteness." Sally says sternly, she turns her head, glancing around again, I think for a moment,

"So.... you want me as a personal body guard type deal?" I ask, she rapidly nods, looking back to me, I grin,

"Alright. I'll do it." I smile, fixing jacket and shirt,

"So uh.... you know what he or she-" "he" Sally cut me off, "and all I know is he wears all black, brown hair. And blue eyes. High cheekbones which is kinda cute... and slim lips. All I know." She says, I blink,

"You sure? That kind of fits the description of that guy." I stealthily point to a guy of her description leaning against a nearby building... holding what seems to be a....... tissue.

"That's him!" She whisper yells to me, I stare at the tissue in his hand, I gulp,

"Sally...."

"What...?" She questions, I lean closer to her and whisper in her ear,

"When I start walking, you run home as fast as you can. I'll keep him busy until you're safe."

"What about you!?"

"I'll be fine... you said it yourself, I can handle myself well..," I place a hand on her shoulder,

"Now play along." I wink, she gives me a quizzical look,

"Sorry Sal, I don't know what your talking about. Some person following you?" Sally half smiles,

"Come on (Y/n)! You gotta believe me!" Sally cups her hands together and faking puppy eyes to me, I chuckle,

I glance up, seeing the dude standing straight, clutching the tissue in his hand, I mentally growled,

"Just go home Sal..." I pat her shoulder, I motion her to start slowly walking, she does, I close my eyes and breath in, shaking my head. I see the dude starts speed walking, Sally glances, I nod and take a step. She then instantly bolts home, the man started running after her, I stick my foot out and trip him,

"Oops. My mistake." I cover my mouth, pretending to feel sorry,

"Grrr..." the man went to grab my ankle but I move away rather quickly, I lean down slightly, as he stumbled to stand,

"Look. Leave my friend alone... or you'll be dealing with me." I press my thumb into my chest, giving this man a glare, in a swift movement he throws a punch at me, I chuckle and bend down dodging rather easily, he gives me a surprised look, I grin, I stand up straight, smacking the top of my head into his chin, which kind of hurt me, but hurt him more,

"Hah! I could do this with my eyes closed." I chuckle, I then glance around seeing people pulling out their phones,
"Seriously...." the man grips his chin, growling,

"You'll pay for that brat..." he growled, his voice quite deep, I look back at him,

"Oh really?" I extend my arms out,

"Then come at me~" he smirks, he charges straight at me, I side step and roll, sweeping my right foot and hitting both his shins, making him go face first into the cement sidewalk. A loud crack and yell is heard, the man turns over and is holding his now bloody nose and forehead, and groans in pain, I roll my eyes.

"So weak..." I mumble, a woman walks up to me,

"Oh my goodness! Are you alright?" She asks me, I step away,

"I'm fine faker." I glare at her, she gives me a look,

"What do you mean by that?" She asks, a little sass in her tone of voice,

"You're with him. I can tell. Now.... you can either fight me. Or take your.... 'pal' here to the hospital..." the woman growled, I grin,

Knew it...

"You Brat." The woman says, kneeling down to her partner, helping him up and throwing his arm over her shoulder,
"We'll be back for you." She growled, I shrug,

"And I'll be waiting." I smirk, turning on my heel, I freeze as I see people starring at me, I get annoyed by this kind of thing,
"Got a starring problem!?" I throw my hands up, they all flinch and speed walk to where ever they were going, I grumble, heading to Sally's house, as I walked I could still feel eyes on me. I turn my head and look around, not seeing anyone looking at me, I shrug and walk into Sally's house...

~??? POV~

"Wow....." I said calmly to myself, watching her take on a full grown man on her own, her friend was already gone, ran to her house, I mean... Damn, (y/n)... I never knew you had it in you to actually fight.... I blink,

"What the hell am I saying..." I grumble, rubbing the back of my neck, "she was pretty scary in her past life at times... The look she gave me when....." I stop myself, shaking my head,

"Past is in the past." I say to myself, watching as she looked around at all the people staring at her,

"Got a staring problem!?" She yelled throwing her hands up, making all the people flinch and quickly speed walk away, lucky me... I caught the whole fight on my phone,

"Jack might like to see the badass side of her...." I grin, yea I have feelings for her too... But I know she only loves Jack and Jack only... I mean its a new her.... She could change- what the fuck am I saying. I couldn't do that to E.J.... I grumble and glide my hand down my face,

"Fuck it. Whatever." I stand up straight and throw my hood over my head as I see her leave my sight and entering that girl's house... I had to admit. That Sally girl is pretty cute. I chuckle, turning towards the woods and entering,

"Its dangerous to go into town like that." A familiar and annoying voice says, I growl,

"Beat it Timothy. I dont want no damn lecture today." I push past him, Masky crosses his arms,

"How many times have I told you not to call me that.... Jefferson." I flinch at the sound of my name, in a swift movement and forcefully pin him against the tree,

"Don't you dare call me that...." I growl, I could feel my blood boiling from him already,

"Just leave me alone... I'll deal with Slender on my fucking own. I dont need a damn babysitter." I let Masky go, letting him fall to the ground with a thud,

Yea I was the strongest out of the mansion... But Hoodie and Masky had the brains, Toby with his stamina, Laughing Jack with his trusting aura and childish manor, Sally and Ben are just dorks, and I lost track of the rest... Other than them, E.j. would be the scariest out of us all..... And truth be told... I dont think Slender will let (y/n) come back to the mansion in this life of hers... He has already said if we brought her back... It could be dangerous. Well... He's told me that, that's probably why Masky fucking followed me... I shake my head, seeing the mansion, I head to the door and swing it open, walking in I slam it shut behind me, Ben peeks his nerdy head out of the living room,

"You alright Jeff? Did a stick appear up your ass again?" Ben joked about my sour attitude,

"No Ben, there's nothing up my ass. Just Masky following me everywhere I fucking go..." I growl, walking past him and into the kitchen, I go to open the fridge when...

Jeffrey...

Slender called me, his voice booming through the mansion, I flinch at the loudness of his voice,

"Coming... Sir." I sigh, taking my hand away from the fridge handle and heading up the stairs to his office, I hesitate, but I open his door and walk in,

Have a seat Jeffrey...

He said in a quieter voice, gesturing his long slim hand to the two chairs infront of his desk, I gulp down the breath hitched in my throat, I sit down in the right chair and fold my hands,

Jeffrey... Do you know why I called you into my office?

I could feel his aura grow stronger... He was angry, but surprisingly keeping his cool...

"N-No... Sir."

I believe you do...

I gulp, "I'm here because I was out in... Town... And not patrolling the woods." I mumbled,

No... But that adds to it...

Slenderman sighs, standing up,

Jeffrey, I called you here because I have something to ask of you...

"But I thought it was E.j's turn?" I furrow my eyebrows,

Exactly... I'm afraid... Jack will not be able to do this one...

Slender grabs a piece of paper, walking over, his stance was slightly shaken,
"You alright... Sir?" I ask, even though I could still sense his anger, I could easily tell it wasnt from something I did, thats a relief at least... He shakes his head, placing the paper infront of me,

This is why I can't let Jack go on this mission....

I look at the paper, my jaw slightly drops, my eyes widening, I felt like hurling as I stared at the girl in the picture, her (h/l) (h/c) hair and her (e/c) eyes, I grab the picture with my hand shaking,

"S-Slendy... You know I can't.... Do that." I nervously and sadly look up at Slender, he nods,

What I'm asking you to do this time Jeffrey... Is not to kill...

His words catch me off guard, I shoot up out of my seat,
"What is it sir."

There is an old enemy of mine...

"Zalgo?"

No... An even more dangerous enemy... A name I dare not speak of... But... This enemy of mine.... SHE.... Is after (y/n) for something, something that was given to (y/n) before she was... Re-Born into this world once more...

"W... What are you talking about... Slender." Slenderman had fallen silent, I could sense how hard he was thinking about the topic, almost as if he couldnt form the correct words...

She wears a necklace... It looks of a normal necklace... But it isn't... Inside the darkness of that necklace holds a stone... It has the power to bring back the dead to control... But... Theres also another stone... Made of pure light, it lays those dead to rest, and creates new life... If it were to ever get into the wrong hands... The entire balance of this world could be torn... The necklace would be a memory to her, maybe given to her by someone she cares about in this new life of hers...

I stared at him in disbelief, (y/n)? Our friend... Holding something that powerful without knowing it!? She already died once! She doesn't need to die again over something like this..." I pause for a moment, looking at her picture once again, then I say softly...

"What do I need to do..."
