Chapter 2: Encounter
Lawson: I can tell you have a reputation in London
Blue: Well they did give me a name
Norman: Oh right, I forgot about that
Lawson: A name? Like a title?
Blue: Yeah
Lawson: What did they call you?
Blue: They call me, The Syndicate
Lawson: The Syndicate? Why that?
Blue: I don't know, I guess it sounds cool. A syndicate is a group of people or organisations forming together, so maybe they refer to me as The Syndicate because I'm a boy capable of many things.
Norman: That only a group could do, yet you're one person
Blue: It's kind of smart, plus it sounds cool
Lawson: Yeah, I'll give you that, now let's eat

[3rd POV]
While the Two Officers and The Private Investigator head towards a place to eat, the scene changes back to the forest inhabited by the Ominous Slenderwoman.
She was in the abandoned house as always, but she wasn't by herself, a little girl by the age of 12 was floating around, and talking with Slenda.
It was Sally Williams.
Slenda: Hello Sally, what brings you here today?
Sally: Well, you're the best, and I heard that Mr Chief brought in a new friend for me to torment!
Slenda: Yes, this.....Blue Light. He is an investigator, and Chief Norman thinks he can help with all the killings
Sally: He is so silly!
Slenda: Yes he is, but there is something off about him. He isn't special in any way, but he is peculiar
Sally: What do you mean?
Slenda: Let me show you
Slendawoman uses one of her abilities to show Sally the events that occured a moment ago. When it was over, Sally was surprised at what she saw.
Slenda: What do you think, Sally?
Sally: Well he is technically an adult, but he seems very child like. Plus, he saved that little girl, I like him!
Slenda: Yes, I could tell you have a connection with that girl, that man....was her uncle, and I know what he had planned
Sally: I would gut him if I was that investigator, but he isn't a killer
Slenda: He wouldn't make a good one
Sally: Are you going to tell the others about him?
Slenda: There is no need, they all will find out
Sally: Oh right, we just know about everything they do
Slenda: Well, you didn't know about today
Sally: I-I was playing with some kids in the park
Slenda: That's fine Sally, you don't need to get involved
Sally: Are you going to keep watching him?
Slenda: I will, but I'm not expecting much, he can hit hard, but that's all I have seen so far. Oh....some unfortunate souls have wandered in the forest
Sally: Oh! Let's play with them Slenda!
Slenda: I've already set up the pages, and you can go torment them for a bit
Sally: Will you join in?
Slenda: Of course, I wouldn't miss an opportunity like this.
Sally smiles and flies off so that she can scare some adults, Slenda watches on with an evil smirk, knowing that nothing can oppose her, or any of the others.

Blue, Norman and Lawson were now back at the Police Station, and inside of Norman's office. Lawson was working on a billboard that showed the town of Omaha, and it had red pins to show the sighting of every murder so far.
While Lawson tried to work out where a killer might strike next, Norman showed Blue the files he had on the most dangerous omes.
It wasn't all of them, but they were the more notable ones.
Norman: I....had an encounter with this one
Blue: Slenderwoman?
Norman: Yes, it was five years ago, I was in my office sorting out some papers. Then I heard a painful static noise and there she was, standing there.... in front of my desk.
Blue: What did she want with you?
Norman: Nothing, she just wanted to tell me who really was in charge
Blue: Her and the others?
Norman: Exactly, that was when I learnt the truth of the world. We stand no chance against them
Blue: Yet you brought me in
Norman: I know about your past, Blue
Blue: Ah....right, that.
Norman: Yes, and so I know what you can do
Blue: Mmm, so this Slenderwoman, she must have an array of abilities
Norman: She does, but we can go over some of them later
Blue: That's fine, so who is next?
Norman: Probably two of the worst ones. Zalgo, essentially he is Satan, and then we have his sister Zalga
Blue: What are they? Demons?
Norman: Exactly that
Blue: Then they have many abilities as well. Is that all of them?
Norman: Oh no, we have more out there
Blue: More?
Lawson: Yeah, we just don't have any files on them. We can't do anything about them because they're just.....fuck, they're just better than us
Blue: Well, that isn't going to be a problem
Lawson: And why is that?
Blue: Because I'm going to be better than them
Lawson:.....Kid, what the hell are you capable of? Because you're talking mad game here, but I haven't seen you do anything yet, I've only heard stories from Chief over there. And what's this about your past?
Blue: Don't worry, I won't spoil the surprise. I'll admit, that some of them will be troublesome, but it takes more than just power and authority to beat these things. You need to use your wits
Norman: And you have plenty of those, it's why I brought you in
Blue: Well then, let's get to work.
For the next few days, Blue would take a look at Norman's other files, as he wanted to gain more knowledge and figure out any counter measures to these killers.
One day, he was reading into the file on Jeff and noticed that his behaviour was familiar.
Blue: Was he the one that killed the man from a few days ago? His description tells me it's him, despite most of these killers being as violent as Jeff.
But time passes really quickly and he noticed that it was getting dark, Lawson was responding to the call from someone who needed help, and Norman got an early night.
Blue: Oh hey, Vanessa, can you lock up for me?
Vanessa: The office? Sure, heading home?
Blue: Yeah, I got an apartment nearby
Vanessa: Courtesy of me. Well, don't get attacked
Blue: I'll be fine, thank you though
Blue leaves and heads back to the apartment he has been staying at, he locks his door and changes his clothes, before having some dinner. Then he goes straight to bed, where he expected some good sleep.
But he was wrong.
Around 1 AM, when it was dark outside, an ominous aura was surrounding the building, Blue was asleep on his bed, unaware on what's about to happen.
The air thickens with tension as every creaking floorboard echoes the intruder's sinister intent. His heart beats in sync with a ticking clock hanging on the wall, creating a malevolent symphony that screams out impending danger.
The intruder, clearly male, walks past the living room and the TV before slowly opening the door to his next victim, and carefully steps inside.
He unsheathes his large and sharp knife, before approaching the bed, a lump showed that the new Investigator was still there.
An evil grin found its way onto the intruder's face, and he slowly moved the covers.....
Only to not find Blue there.....
Instead, it was a bunch of pillows piled together, fooling the killer.
???: What?
Blue: You fell for it fool!
Blue comes out of nowhere and kicks the killer outside his room and back into the sitting area where the clock and TV were.
The killer gets up and was definitely surprised, he looks over at Blue, who was ready to scrap, showing no signs of drowsiness at all.
Blue: So you break into my apartment and expect to kill me?
???: Well yeah, of course! Now be a good cop and go to sleep!
Blue: Later, maybe when you're not in my place. Who are you?
Jeff: The name is Jeff, I'm sure you must've heard about me
Blue: Oh I do, but don't think I'm just a standard person
Jeff: Please, what's so special about you?
Blue: F Around and Find Out
Jeff obliges and leaps at Blue with his knife ready, but what he didn't expect was to watch Blue slip and drive his fist into his stomach.
Jeff felt the blow and backed up, he was slightly hunched over and stunned at what just happened.
Jeff: T-The hell?!
Blue: Are you okay? Want some water? Ice cream? Another punch?
Jeff: S-Shut up!
Jeff starts to use his unnatural speed, and went for Blue again, what he didn't expect was for the Investigator to keep up with him and pound his face with his fists.
Jeff didn't like the fact that this guy was hurting him, so he started to become more aggressive. Blue remained calm and weaved all of his knife attacks before landing another body shot.
Jeff almost dropped completely, but managed to keep himself up. Blue walks past him and opens up his window fully, confusing Jeff.
Jeff: Wh-What are you doing?
Blue: I don't want to damage my window
Jeff:.....W-What?
Before Jeff could think or act, Blue grabs him and throws Jeff out the window, Jeff lands hard on the ground, but stood on his feet and looked up to Blue.
He looked back at him, and Jeff couldn't understand what was behind that look, it was almost empty. Jeff scowled at the fact that he was bested by this normal human, and limped away.
Blue did not pursue him, because he had other ideas. He knew that Jeff was going to talk to the others, so he wanted to send a message.
A message to say, that he wasn't going to be bossed around by their power.
Blue: Well, time to get some sleep, I was having a good dream about ice cream.
_________________
Blue goes back to sleep, and while he enjoyed it, Jeff the Killer....wasn't doing so great.
He ran away and immediately went to Slenderwoman's Forest, pissed and confused. He finds the abandoned house that Slenda usually resides in and bursts in, Slenda was sitting on her chair, thinking.
And Jeff knew she was thinking about what happened at that apartment.
Jeff: Slenda! W-What the hell is he?!
Slenda: Calm down Jeff, he only threw you out the window
Jeff: Yes but not before punching me repeatedly in the face and body!
Slenda: You're fine, aren't you? You can take a bullet, let alone a punch
Jeff: Yeah I know. But it felt like he was pulling his punches!
Slenda: Did it hurt?
Jeff: Ye-Yes. That fucker must have iron in his fists or something
Slenda: Interesting, well, you can rest here if you want
Jeff: N-No! I'm going back to kill him!
Slenda: Are you sure that's wise? He seems to have you beat
Jeff:.....Tch, fine, I'll stay here.
Slenda: This boy is very interesting, I didn't think he would best you in combat
Jeff: Me either. Say, is Jane still out and about?
Slenda: She is, and she still wants you dead
Jeff: I'd like to see her try
Slenda: She could kill you right now if she wanted to, you're not in the best condition right now
Jeff: T-That won't matter!
Slenda: Just rest Jeff, you need it
Jeff: Fine.....
Jeff moved along and went upstairs to rest, while Slenda continued to think.
Slenda: I expected Jeff to kill him, but I didn't think that boy would trick him and beat him. He kept up with Jeff, and Jeff is known to be fast, the way he fights as well.....he is trained.
Slenda: I wonder what else I will see from this boy, Jeff was a test, but I doubt he will go far, especially when there are more......deadly advocates.

So Jeffery tried to jump our protagonist in his sleep.
And so soon as well? He really wanted to have his say, but so did Blue who proved that he was jump resistant!
What else is there to this boi's story? And what will the others have planned for him?
