Leila's P.O.V.

BEN and I trained for the rest of the week. He taught me multiple tips and tricks with the sword and better ways to swing the sword. He also taught me how to run while wielding it and how to fight people with it.

I put on my boots and tied them. Today was going to be my first kill. I was wearing a lack undershirt with a gray hoodie over it along with the usual dark blue jeans.

I glanced at the clock, 8:53. I grabbed my sword and hung the sheath on my back and began heading downstairs. I have to admit, I'm not really nervous. A right here. The way the others talked about it sounded amazing, though they didn't do that often. Another right. I believe that's because it sometimes gives them another urge to kill, like Jeff. However, I still haven't figured out my power. Left. Slenderman has high hopes for me, he wants this kill to go well and for me to figure out my power already. Staircase. I think this is only because he wants Rake to leave already.

"Hey Leila, ready to go?" Rake asked me, Hoodie next to him. Nowadays, Masky seemed to be piled with work from Slender, so I usually have to do near everything with Hoodie. Though, I counted Luna as my best friend.

"Yeah." I say, casting him a smile. We walked out of the mansion and walked in a straight line. I inhaled, taking in the forest's scent. This was the first time I was actually leaving the mansion I couldn't help the smile that was spreading across my face as we drew closer to the town.

"It's so pretty out here."

"Yeah, it is. Maybe later I can show you this nice clearing. It's some ways from the house, but I think you'll like it." Hoodie said. Rake agreed not to interfere in any way, so we couldn't talk to him.

"Yeah. That'll be ni-" I stopped in my tracks as I heard some footsteps, and looked over to Hoodie, he noticed it too. He nodded at me and I began walking towards the noise as quietly as I could. I wasn't going to make those weeks of training useless. I heard some stumbling and a thud, then chuckled to myself. Drunk by 9 on a Sunday? I heard the footsteps get louder and decided to climb a tree to get an aerial view. I looked off as I stood on a branch. Hoodie was hiding in the bushes below me, off still some ways in ahead of me I saw 2 boys, who seemed to be 16 years of age, off by a small pond. I jumped from tree to tree until I had a good view of them, yet they still couldn't see me. I got to a lower branch so It'd be easy to pounce on them.

"I-I can't take it anymore, brooo. It's merh not chu." The one closer to me slurred, I was going to get him.

"What do you mean?" The other one slurred with tears in his eyes. "You- You can't do thiiss, I'm pregnant!" He yelled, one of his eyelids up higher than the other.

"You are? Ermergerrrd I'm soo sor-" He was about to say when I jumped down slicing my sword in front of me, causing his body to split in two, yet not detach due to me not fully cutting him. The other screamed then passed out, due to Hoodie throwing a rock at him. I finished cutting the boy in two then took out a rag from my hoodie pocket, and bean cleaning my Elucidator while Hoodie finished off his.

"How was that?" I asked, slipping my sword back into it's sheath.

"That went great." Rake said, coming out from behind a tree.

"Come on, let's head back to the mansion." Hoodie stated. It had taken us a while to get to where we were, s it took us just as long to get back. I'd say it took 30 minutes to get there, so some over an hour passed by the time we got back. I said Good Night to Rake and Hoodie and went to my room.

Once I opened the door I saw Luna waiting for me.

"How'd it go?" She questioned.

"It went well." I told her, taking off my boots.

"So... Does that mean you're going to go hunting with me tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow? I'm not sure if Slender will let me.. Plus, I promised Jack that after I was done training Id play video games with him."

"Boo! You're no fun." She said flopping on her back. I got out my clothes to take a shower.

"That's what Jack would say if I ditched him~"

"Let him suffer! We're killers not wimps!"

"Luna."

"Yeah?"

"If Slender says I can then I'll go, but I doubt he will. If you'll excuse me, I'm going to go take a shower." I said, walking out. I heard an excited 'Yes!' and laughed softly before bumping into Toby.

"Oh hey Toby."

"H-hey Leila." He said, ticking. I shifted my weight.

"Uh.. well I kind of need to go... you know, take a shower." I told him, looking down a bit.

"O-oh right, sorry." He moved out of the way and I went into the bathroom. I sighed, I may have warmed up to everyone but it always gets like that with the two of us.
