Chapter 2
2 weeks later
If someone told Jeff he was going to be befriending a skeleton who needs a lot of help in many ways, probably a chocolate addict, and sarcastic back at his ass. He would laugh, asked them what drugs their on and then kill them.
Well now he feels like a damn fool.
The past two weeks he been "staying" at Error house. Well technically the next day when he broke in Error let him go.
*Flashback*
Jeff lift his head up, after keeping it down once he was done with his curse fest and the damn skeleton saying nothing. Well he did feel something from these strings to be quite. A slight warning tug. It was interesting feel but he kept quiet. He wasn't risking it. He hates to admit it but if their someone out of his league to fight or kill he needs to back off and plan. Learn that the hard way after many run in with Slenderman and few others till he join in. After finally keeping his head down, for who knows how long, he lift it up and look straight ahead.
The pile of bones was still in the same spot. The tv still making sounds in the background. Still in Spanish. But this time the glass of milkshake, that was empty, sitting on the stand. Jeff a little curious how that works. Yes, he have meet a few skeleton monsters but never asked how they digest food. Well till the internet and later on Slenderman group gave him answers when he was just curious.
Magic.
Then it got complicated after that for him how not many skeletons, along with monsters, use to do magic attacks and all that junk in the past. How magic still parts of skeletons and monsters just in different ways like with food, body parts, turn into dust and ect. He technically have scene like creepypasta do some sort of magic or related to it. But from a skeleton? This is a first for him. And hates it to find out and fooled like this.
Milkshake empty and the black bone skeleton was knitting. But it was something different this time.
"What the hell you making?''
"Oh so you are awake?" Glance up and back to his knitting.
"I wasn't sleeping pile of bones." Okay maybe resting but not sleeping!
"Your breathing says another thing. Then again hard to tell with your eyes."
"Oh shut it!"
"Nope my home."
Jeff growled and turn his head. Eyes slightly widen to see the glass that was on the ground gone. Heck the window was fixed. How out of it was he? He usually on high alert even when he rest. Heck or a damn scream if he called someone to fix it. Or the damn police too. "Who fix your window?''
"I did."
"How? I should have heard something."
"Not telling."
"Why?"
"Why should I explain it to you?"
"Because I'm bored! So, how the fuck you do it?"
"Hmm alright I'll tell you."
Jeff lean in, the best he can, to hear it.
"Magic."
Jeff fingers twitch at the blank face of the skeleton. Lean his head back and sighs. It was silent for a bit.
"Aren't you going to kill me?''
"Thinking about it."
"And?''
"Not really in the mood. I'll let you go once I feed you."
"You are going to feed me?'' What kind of person is this? Who just feeds their killer?
"Why not?'' He tilt his head at the guy.
Is this skeleton dense? He study him for a long damn time. Okay this monster defiantly strong. Very blunt as well. But there was since of no wouldn't be innocence. Maybe naivety? Or blunt damn honesty and just doesn't care. Either way something not right in this monster head...It just giving him another set of questions and he hates that! "What you going to feed me?''
"A taco."
"I want chocolate."
"My chocolate."
"You greedy piece of shit."
"You want the taco or just throw you out in the woods right now."
"Give me the damn taco."
Suddenly the strings gone and fell on the ground. "You bastered!"
"My fingers slip." Rolled his eyes and get up. Put his new project inside his pant pocket. Walks to the kitchen.
Jeff gets up. He looks down and eyes widen a bit. Look around the floor and his pockets. Where was his knife? Mind went to the kitchen and growled. The bastered probably has it. March at the direction where the skeleton went. Sees the kitchen and was a nice for a lot of people. But at the moment doesn't care but for one thing. "Where my knife?''
"Here."
Pulls out the from his other pants pocket. His string around the handle and bringing it to Jeff. Jeff grabs his knife and held it close. He relax a bit feeling a bit better and secure. Look at the string still flying out and tilt his head. He brings the knife up and ready to strike it down. HE was curious okay. Bring the knife down.
He missed!
He growls at the string that just move. Glance and see Error back turn but the string still coming out his finger. Barely moving and the string just floating. Mocking him. He jumps up to attack the string again and missed.
Error didn't need to turn around and see what his "guest" was doing. Heck he can imagine it and probably a frustrated look on his face. It actually reminded him a bit what Charas and even few of the bad sans would do. Chase the string and try to grab it. Or attack it. It was entertaining and one of the few rare moments of "fun" he would have in the past. But that eons ago. Shake his head slightly and pull out the left over taco. Turn and look amused at the sight.
Jeff now on the counter and knife out the string. Said string now holding its own knife. It was a knife fight.
Error just watches and moving his fingers slightly to move the string with the knife. Blocking, striking and moving back whenever the killer strikes back. He got to give this guy credit. He does move well and strikes are decent. He would defiantly give many Sans and Papyrus a bad time in a genocide route.
Plus, the guy just screams he would love to kill and fight. Along with admitting it few minutes ago. Maybe he and the bad sans would have gotten along. Well maybe not all of them.
Shake his head at the thought. He really should get this guy to go soon once he feeds him. Doesn't need to be around him. Or deserve to have anyone around him. Even if it's a fellow killer.
Jeff ready to tackle down the string. It gotten really interesting once it grab a knife and fight back. Heck, he had to be even alert like it was a real fight. He enjoying it! About ready to drop till the string was being pulled back along with the knife. Turn his head and see the pile of bones now holding the knife along with the food. "Hey I was ready to beat that string ass!"
"Here food."
Place the plate on the counter.
Jeff grumble and jumps down. He looks at the taco and back at Error. Now notice their heights. While Jeff was 5'8. Error was 5'9. "Aren't you going to heat the meat up or you just lazy?"
"Heat it up?'' Why does he need to heat it up? It's already warm enough.
"Yeah. I'm not going to eat cold meat." Seriously what's wrong with this guy?
"Why it's still edible?'' At least he thinks so. When did he cook the tacos again?
"That's not the point! Some people like it cold. Me I don't. Are you that stupid?''
"I rarely touch food unless I want to make it or eat it."
"You drank a chocolate milkshake."
"Because I want it plus it was from 5 days ago. I just kept it in the freezer."
"..."
"What?''
"Your one messed up skeleton."
"I already know that. Now eat your taco and leave."
He grumbles and took a bite of the food. Then he stop before he about to swallow it. "How old this Taco?''
"What day is it again?''
He spit out the taco.
After that Jeff didn't really leave. Okay he stayed in the trees and just watch Error. Jeff should be reporting back to Slenderman but isn't the mood to go back to the mansion. Heck the plan was too kill the one who lives here and crash for a while till he was called to go back. Or if Slenderman annoyed send someone. At least not anybody soon. He wants to figure out this skeleton.
Glance up at his phone and see Error packing boxes. Well his strings packing boxes. Small to mediums sizes. What was in the boxes? He didn't know. Or really care but what the bones was doing. He was just at the desk using his strings to work away while the other on a laptop. Look back at his phone and finding intel about skeleton monsters and odd behaviors. So, far not helping him. Look back up eyes widen.
Where the fuck he go?!
"Why are you in my tree?"
Jeff scream, denying it was very loud pitch, and held on the tree and knife pointing to the side of him. He gap and see the skeleton right by him.
"How the fuck you get here so fast?''
"M-
"I swear if you say magic I'm kicking you off this tree!"
"My tree and my secret." Tilt his head at the grumbling man, cursing a lot, and tap the point of the blade. "Are you going jump through another window?''
"Maybe I am! What you going to do about?''
"Throw you off this tree."
The way he said it sounded very true and Jeff not going to test that theory. "What are in those damn boxes?''
"Orders."
"Order for what?''
"Orders for customers."
Questions back and forth with bland responses that Jeff was ready to jump down. Till he saw a damn smirk on the skeleton face. He doing this on purpose! Or at least with some of the responses. But all and all it wasn't a bad talk.
"Shouldn't you go home?"
"Not my home and I don't want to deal with a few idiots right now."
"Huh well you're not sleeping in my tree."
"You offering me to stay?"
"Fuck no."
"Screw you too! Your damn expired Taco would have killed me anyway." Smack his arm.
Error froze.
Jeff doesn't know what the crap happen after. Heck he couldn't explain it. The skeleton was just shaking. No, it look like he was glitching! Then was trying to get away from him. But he was moving too fast and slip off the branch. Jeff immediately reach out grab his arm and holding the skeleton. He was a bit quite taken back how light the skeleton felt. A skeleton shouldn't feel this damn light as he pulls up the skeleton. He was lighter than even Sally. Held the skeleton shoulders to look at him. Not realizing he was making it worse. They were glitching from the inside!
"Hey! Hey what the fuck wrong-"
Error crashes and lean back almost falling down again.
Jeff catches him before that happens and hold the skeleton against his chest...What the fuck was that?!
Reboot 5%
Wait reboot? Here a strange sound and look down at the skeleton. Did that come from him? What the fuck a reboot?
Reboot 25%
Jeff just stared and waited...Why the heck did he save him? He could have let him fell down and be done with it. Glance at the skull head and see the chips of bones, and cracks. That's not normal to have so much like that.
Reboot 50%
Look back at the skeleton face. Jeez he didn't know it was possible for one to look so damn tired and exhausted. He shakes his head and look at the pocket. It would be so tempting to bash his skull and face. But he just couldn't. And that pissing him off. He growls and look back at the skeleton. "Were going to have a chat when we talk and I better get answers this time."
Reboot 100%
He hears the groan and look at the skeleton. Eye sockets back to those mix match eyes and looks out of it.
"Urh what happen-"Freeze was he realize he was against something. Hearing a heartbeat and notice the arms around him. Suddenly he took shaky breathes again and began to glitch.
"Hey don't you dare do that again!"
Huh? Look up and see it was the killer and holding hi. Why the fuck was he holing him? He needs to let go! He just a damn filthy glitch! Should have push him off the tree. It was worse being touch this long. He needs to let go! He going to get hurt worse!
"Oh come on don't crash again! Are you having a damn panic attack?
"L-let go!"
About to respond back with a bit of cursing and aggravation till he stop. Wait is he really? Look at him over and shaken worsen. The glitches coming back. He didn't want to see that again. Heck it was troubling sight to watch. He let go of his shoulders and put them up in a surrender pose. "Okay, okay, okay. No, touching. Just come on you pile of bones just breathe with me here."
That's what you do right? Shit he not paid enough to deal with this.
After Error finally calm down and it was a long time Jeff understood what trigger him. Heck the guy just told him right at his face.
Haphephobia.
Jeff understood the small basics and look it up later on. After Error let him stay the night from saving him from falling down. Well Error, finally got his name, and really said he should have let him drop. Wouldn't kill him. But hey less bones to be healed from cracks or broken.
Defiantly a lot of other issues than being touched, lack of sleep, not eating barely but not pushing it. Jeff have his own shit but he doesn't want to know how bad it is compared to him...Of course after staying here many days he can see how messed up Error was.
Well messes up got to stick together.
Error beginning to question why he let Jeff stay. Yeah okay he save him from falling out a tree. But they guy could have just let him fall. And well it's not like smiley face knew about his phobia until he told him. Must be out of it for telling the guy one of his weakness. Hey if he succeeds using it to kill him great job! If not well that sucks and along with rebooting. Jeff stop touching him except little things. He said he wasn't "helping" and it wasn't "pity". Just pushing him a little in his comfort zone.
It was interesting. First thing they did was just Jeff finger pointing out. Error would just stare at it for hours, really few minutes but Jeff so happy he has patient, till he finally touch it. A little flinch from Error and it was a start. Not like the guy was forcing him to touch him. So, it just finger touches one at a time till finally a handshake. Which Jeff had to explain to the guy and look ready to murder or laugh. Not at Error. But the idiots to not teach him a simple thing like that. Error didn't care but feel a little accomplished to not glitch out doesn't mean he trust him full. But hey the thumb war was fun.
Jeff face was priceless when he just stared at the hand and explained about thumb wars. It was interesting, didn't like the touch, but it was supposed to be fun. It sort of help with the touching but apparently at 5 your supposed to lift your thumb up if you beat the other. He wasn't using that much strength but Jeff cursing out at him was a sight. And the guy a sore looser till he showed him Mario Kart. He is going to beat that smirking Ronald McDonald on Rainbow road.
The two of them have talk about killing. They both have killed. Jeff doesn't mind describing who he killed but learn to back off if it's anything about a kid. That warning look in Error eyes makes him not push it. But other than that the talks were interesting. Jeff didn't explain his first kill. He was shock when Error never even heard of him "Jeff the Killer" till he read the story on his phone. He just look at him oddly and shrug. Well better than not being asked questions what happen. Well unless he ever runs into his brother. But that a big if. Error though does admit he enjoyed his time killing and destruction of sorts but for different reasons. At the time. That's brings up a little red flags to Jeff but didn't asked questions.
Now Jeff some point got to see some of Error work and his online. He was quite taken back. He actually scene this stuff before especially the puppets Sally keeps asking for and few others like them. He even like a few of the puppets only because of the killer designs like the Horror and Killer puppets looks and touch of blood. He heard Slenderman bro buying something of the vest. Doesn't remember what. Probably another sweater vest. He was a bit impressed. Not because he care about sewing or any of that. But how Error makes it all. Like it was so natural and comfortable. Heck he wouldn't think it was possible for the guy too look normal after what he saw him do. With those moments Jeff just stays quite. Just like when Error sees Jeff just stare at the mirror and touch his face. He backs off too. Something they both agree.
Then gotten a surprised.
Jeff stared at the puppet in his lap.
"So, what you think?''
Jeff pick up the little puppet that look exactly like him. He got everything right. Even the little tear on the back of his sweater. How his hand grip the little knife. The right shade of blue in his eyes. His smile. Oh damn his beautiful he loves to see.
"Um look if you hate it just tell me. You being too quite just weird."
"Shut it." Look back at Error. "I better have another fucker like this in my lap but with blood. The blood around my face brings out my eyes."
Error couldn't help but grin. Jeff smile bigger and held the little puppet close.
Error and Jeff don't want to admit it out loud they became friends. Or acquaintances. But its a silent understanding between them. As a week and few days passed Jeff talked about the Slenderman and the proxies, creepypasta. Hey might as well lay it all out, well not everything.
"Huh so are all after world domination or just want to kill?'' Error and Jeff on the couch. Error sewing for a few orders. Jeff watching tv. Both have milkshakes.
"We just killed, gather Intel and just do our own stuff. Not everyone works for Slendyass but have partnership of sorts. Like Dr. Smiley not part of us but will join in meetings. Then goes out to be the oh so great Doctor. World Domination more like that asshole Zalgo thing."
"And he not dead because?''
"Look smart ass if you know a way to kill him. Be my guess. He makes Slendorass times a grumpy asshole when he comes up and ruins something."
"Okay."
"Huh?''
"Next time, he does and annoys me too. I'll do it."
"Okay Error I'll admit yours strong. Hell I scene you pick up the couch like it was nothing and your strings would be useful. And other voodoo junk your hiding. But how would you kill him."
"Tear out his soul and destroy it. Since their no RESET here he won't be able to come back. Unless he immortal than well just trap the soul somewhere-
Jeff stared at Error for a long time as he explains what he could do with the soul. It was terrifying but so badass. Yes, something else feels doesn't feel right. Well nothing about them right. But Error talks about it like he done it before.
"Error...Who the fuck mess you up?''
Error was silent till he let loose a little chuckle. "Let me tell you a little story about someone called Fate and her oh so favorite child-"
Jeff have to excuse himself and didn't return back for a long time. Error felt like he ruin it between them. Hell Jeff not stupid and pin point it all who the story was about. Who the child of "force destruction" was. He didn't know why he even told him. Okay maybe a little. Maybe get it off his chest? Try to feel normal even around another killer? Is Jeff now going to get his "team and Slendorass" to come and destroy him before he destroy this world. Well he could but it would take a lot of time than normal AU universes. He didn't want to do that. He like it here and now fuck it up.
Eventually Jeff return back. It was really late. A lot of blood on him too. Error just stare at him when he came back and sat down by him. Jeff look very serious and calm as he look at Error. It was little startling to see him with that face.
"I'm going to say this once and listen. No, ears jokes. I don't give a fuck you are a god of destruction chaos or any of them. Hell I think it's fuck up you were force in that job. But it's a damn good job you were good at since this Ink shit wasn't doing his part. Ink and the others who ignore you and everything, not letting you speak. Fuck them. Fuck those worlds. Fuck Fate. As for the ones who actually gave a shit about you well just hope it quick and painless. They are worth it. Not the others. You're here now and that's that."
Error stare for a long time and shoulders relax a bit. The both of them were silent.
"You have blood on the couch."
"The couch needed a new look!"
After that the two have an understanding. Jeff would speak a bit more about his past along with some adventures, pranks and killing stories with his "friends" and teammates. He miss Smiley Dog and thinking about bringing him to Error. Animals are good to help. Plus, Smiley not a normal dog just like them so it was perfect.
Error open a little bit more but not much. At least talk about certain AU he like to Jeff. Like Outertale and the stares till he stop going when Outer started showing up and get Intel. Expect the last visit was for the void but Jeff didn't need to know that. Then about certain AU the bad Sans were from along with the Chara. Jeff really like these bad sans stories and mentally cursing how the Ink guy a good and not secretly a bad guy instead. Plus, the Charas are cool too. They do remind him a little about Sally but he push it away before it becomes too much. It did have o make Jeff rethink his tactics how to get Error to at least eat. Or at least stop eating the damn bowls and spoons. It was cool the first time till he had to tell Error not. But hey those tongue are coo. Sleep heck that would be lucky if they could get to that.
The two of them had so much stories they joke about writing books. Jeff wants it to be TV series instead. Error wouldn't mind both. But it's just a harmless thought.
Just like it must have been a harmless thought to jump through the window again!
"Jeff."
"Hey don't blame this one me I'm right by your boney ass on this couch."
"Jeff what the hell!" The new figure look up. He was 5'9 in height but a bit taller than Error by a few inches. Wearing a black hoody, black jeans, black tennis shoes, and black gloves. A bit of copper hair showing underneath the hoodie. Could see a bit of his neck that look like gray. A blue with no and mouth showing. Black liquid was sliding down the mask eye sockets.
"That is?''
"EJ."
"Oh the cannibal one that eats kidney."
"Yep."
"Jeff who the fuck is that?"
"This is mini me." Pat the puppet on his lap.
"I'm not talking about doll-"
EJ punch in the stomach and slam into the wall. Slide down the wall on the floor. He groan from the intense pain. Jeff was laughing in the background and shouted "do that again". Lift his head up a little and see Error. Who look clearly annoyed?
"There not dolls! There puppets!"
EJ can only stare at the annoyed skeleton and taking in his appearance. Jeez what the heck happen to this monster? Glance and see Jeff now just watching. Did that doll just move on its own! Hears a growl and look up at the skeleton. Like he knew he read his mind. Oh dammit he hope this guy doesn't read minds. "Jeff a little help here."
"Oh no you called them the D word. I know better than that."
"Traitor!"
"You're on your own. Oh why you're here anyway?''
"Because the boss asked me to find your ass and bring you back! You been gone for two weeks."
"Hmm yeah no thanks tell Slendyass I'm staying here. Will get Smiley to stay here too. Just call me if your losers and weaklings need help."
"I didn't say you can stay here forever."
"Till you throw my ass out I'm staying here! Now quite my show about to start!"
What the hell is going on? EJ suddenly lifted up and damn he wish just another inch of height as he look at Error.
"You going to cause any issue?''
EJ debating and shake his head no. Yeah he is not taking the chance fighting this monster right now. Study him and go from there.
"Good now sit your ass on the ground and watch the show."
"No, fucken fair! He doesn't get tied up but I did!"
"You try to kill me while jumping towards me!"
"That was the past!"
Awkward minutes.
"You have any kidneys?''
"Chocolate milkshake and spaghetti."
"Lucky bastered."
"Jeff shut it. So, what you want?''
EJ mask lightly up as he sips through the straw as he sits on the ground. Trying to focus on the TV while Jeff complain about the plot of the show. The do-No, puppet just in his lap. He swear he saw the knife glint. How the heck he make something out of yawn look like real metal?! Error just knitting order of puppets. He should do Jeff doggy if he brings the beast over.
