Slenderman Grief

River of Ghosts: Steven's Death (1/5)

***

Reynhard and Adam have arrived at the location of the Labirynth House. They try to look around. It turns out that the house is very spacious and has unique ornaments in the style of Ancient Greek kingdoms.

"Rey, why don't we try to get in?"

"I want to make sure we're safe to enter."

"I wonder what kind of house the labirynth mentioned by the scribble wall earlier."

"Adam, don't you feel weird about this house?"

"What's so weird? I think it's normal."

"This house looks gripping, are you sure you want to get into this house?"

"A little bit I'm sure. What to fear. Perhaps this is what Andreas meant by moving us, so that we might find clues for clues. You didn't forget what Andreas said, did you?"

"Yes, you're right, Adam. I forgot that Andreas did ask us to Labirynth House, a house that has so many rooms and hallways."

"Rey! You still holding the scroll?"

"of course. Wait what else? Let's go in!" exclaim Reynhard.

Reynhard and Adam open the main entrance of the Labirynth House.

"Ngiiiiik .." The sound of the door opening.

"As Andreas said, we just passed the gate, there were a lot of hallways and rooms." Reynhard shone a flashlight in any direction.

"It's so dark in here. There's hardly a hint of light."

[Dream, On]

"Kill all of your friends, I will let you out of here! You can get your freedom and will have my strength for immortal life. You can kill your nearest friend first, hahahaha" Slenderman said.

(Kill all your friends, I'll let you out of here. You can gain freedom and will have my power for eternal life. You could kill your closest friend first.")

"You kidding? How could I kill my best friend?"

"You only have two choices. You and all your friends want to be killed by me, or only you who will be safe? I give you only two choices. Come on, pick my hand and come my right hand!"

(You only have two choices. You and all your friends want to get killed by me, or are you the only one who's gonna survive? I'm giving you only two choices. Come on, take my hand and be my right hand!")

"Oh, ****! It's too heavy! Why Steven? Why not the others first?!" moan Jack.

"I need six sacrifices for my immortal life and strength in this world. If you give me those sacrifices, I will give you my strength, and you won't lose by everyone. How about my offer?"

(I need a tasty tumbar for eternal life and strength in this world. If you give me that crash, I will give you strength, and you will be invincible to anyone. What about my offer?")

[Dream, Off]

Jack wakes up from his sleep after dreaming of meeting Slenderman who offers life and strength to him. Jack was still pacing for a few minutes

On the other hand, Steven who was next to him was still asleep because he was so tired and sick all over his body. The incident scared Steven to death and thought many times to get out of the house.

"Emmmhhh ... It's already noon, isn't it?" steven sat up from his sleep.

"Hey, Jack! Why didn't you wake me?"

"Not until I ..."

"I what?"

Almost Jack was shocked by his words about wanting to kill all his friends including himself. Jack then switched the conversation.

"Reynhard and Adam have only the scroll, and we're here lying unarmed. He cheated!"

Steven was speechless to hear Jack's complaint about Reynhard.

"Steven, why are you quiet?"

"Oath! I was scared to death by the power of that ghost figure. Am I going to die here? I regret not following Rey's advice. If ..."

"If what?" wonder Jack.

"If Rey were in front of me, I'd like to apologize to her."

"You don't have to regret everything that happened. Now the br*ngs*k must be sleeping in peace with Adam."

"I don't think so."

...

"Stevens! What if today is your last day of life?"

"What do you mean?"

"I'm just asking."

"There's nothing I have to do and say. I'd love to smoke a cigarette even though I'm dying."

"We're not kidding, are we?"

"No!"

"Then I'll kill you."

"What's? What did you just say?"

"I'll kill you so I can survive."

"I'm not kidding!" jolt Jack.

Jack landed a punch towards Steven's face. But Steven swiftly brushed aside and avoided Jack's attack.

"Jack! What the fuck? What demon possessed you to take my life?"

"You'll know the answer when you're dying!"

"Braaac ... Dukkc ... Bbbrrrsshhh ... !" the sound of a fight between Steven and Jack inside the shack house.

At that time, Steven was still in a state of pain and forced himself to continue to fight against Jack's brutal resistance. Jack tried to hit, kick, and throw everything he could lift at Steven.

"Jack! Stop that!"

"Speak until death to see you. Because today, your life is in my hands."

"No, Jack! Stop this! Rest assured we can all survive this. We'll get out of this forest together!" shouts Steven while avoiding throwing stones from Jack.

"I'm not interested in your babble!"

In order to avoid all of Jack's attacks, Steven ran towards the Ghost River. Jack relentlessly continued to attack by throwing objects around him towards Steven until Steven was battered.

Finally, Steven could only run and continue running. Trying to avoid, but Jack's last attack on Steven makes Steven's head leak and bleeding heavily. The blood dripping at each step made Steven weaker, and almost lost his balance to walk.

"You run wherever I'm gonna kill you, Steven."

"Jack! Please, try to remember! Aren't we close friends? Why are you being like this?"

"That was then, but not now!" Jack throws a stone at Stevem's feet but misses.

With a bloody state, Steven tried to plunge himself into the Ghost River. It turns out Jack also threw himself into the ghost river just to kill Steven.

"Bluurrrpp ..." Steven tries to dive into the Ghost River to cross and avoid Jack's attack.

However, Jack remains unyielding to kill Steven. All the ways to kill Steven. Jack goes diving and chases Steven faster.

"Jack! I beg you to stop!" shrewd Steven.

"There's no stopping until you're dead in my hands."

Steven dived and made it to the outskirts of the Ghost River. Forced Steven to hold back tired, then then ran while Jack was still in the flow of the Ghost River.

After feeling safe from Jack's vision, Steven tried to hide behind a bushy bush of leaves. He covered all parts of his body with green leaves and left only a hole to see.

As a result, Steven managed to escape from Jack's reach.

"Steveeen! Where's thou? Don't expect to escape from me. I won't let you escape my clutches.

"Steveeen! Out you! I know you're not far from here! I also know you're hiding not far from here! Get out of you, Steven!"

Steven heard Jack's cry calling out to him with a frenzied breath until he was struck by an unusually intense fear. Because Steven wasn't usually scared until his heart was racing.

Jack was still looking around for Steven while holding the knife he always carried around his left waist. Cut off every bush around it.

"Damn! I'm stuck! What should I do! With my circumstances being like this, I can't serve a fight with him" Steven lamented in his heart.

"Steeeen .... Kemariyaah! Death comes to you today, hahahaha!" joking Jack while slashing every bush he met.

"Oh, no! He's getting closer! It's so bad!"

"It looks like he's gone a long way from here. Damnit damnit! I lost track. If he gets away, I can go to jail, even if all my friends know that I want to kill Steven, they will definitely find me and kill me in a place like this. I have to find him any way."

Jack's getting past where Steven's hiding. Seeing Jack move away from behind the bushes, Steven felt a little relieved. But just a few meters away, Steven suddenly accidentally stepped on a tree branch.

"Dance ...!" the sound of a twig being stepped on by Steven's feet.

Jack, hearing the footstep, came straight to where the sound was coming from. Jack was getting closer, but he saw no one or any sign of Steven.

"Steeeeeen ... Come on, don't play hide and seek with me. Come here to fetch your death. Hahaha," Jack sneered with a casual, evil-faced tone.

"If you keep this up, I'm really gonna die at Jack's hands. What am I supposed to do?" steven said in his heart while thinking something.

Then Steven tries to pick up a wooden twig to hit Jack from behind. Jack who passed slightly from Steven's position was immediately hit by Steven with a tree branch held by Steven.

"Buck !" the twig swing held by Steven managed to hit the back of Jack's head.

"Nr ...!" shouting Jack.

However, Steven was wrong to think he had won. Steven forgot that Jack didn't fall easily with just such a small attack.

"Brand! ... Sleeb!" jack's knife slid into Steven's stomach twice.

"It turns out you're here. You little rat!" taunted Jack.

Steven had severe bleeding from the stab. Finally Steven fell in front of Jack who smiled evil and satisfied.

"There's a last sentence?" asked Jack with a cynical smile.

"Jack! One day, your treatment will be avenged by others. You have the heart to kill a friend who since childhood with you both like and be sad," said Steven with a frenzied breath that was bleeding heavily.

Hearing the words, Jack turned his face away from Steven's sharp gaze.

"Remember this, Jack! Someday, you'll die in the same tragic way I did."

Steven finally took his last breath in front of Jack. Unseen by Steven, Jack cries as he is forced to kill Steven in a tragic way to ensure his safety from Slenderman's cruelty.

Jack leaves Steven's lifeless body in his place to continue killing the rest of his friends. Because Jack believed in Slenderman's words.

To remove the trail of Steven's murder, Jack throws himself in to clean up the body, and a knife from Steven's bloodstains stuck to his shirt. Until he finishes cleaning up, Jack embarks on a journey to find other friends who are still alive in the forest.
