Hello Darkness My Old Friend
A/NSee end of chapter for notes.
Reader’s POV:
I wake up to a sharp pain on my head. I groan holding my head and open my eyes and see that I’m in a strange room. I slowly stand up and walk towards a window. I push the curtains aside but I can’t see where I am. It’s dark outside but I can tell that I am in the woods.
“Oh, you’re awake,” says a voice.
I jump a bit and face that pizza guy. I didn’t hear the door open nor did I hear his footsteps. He must be used to be stealthy and quiet by now based on what he’s done so far as a kidnapper.
“Who are you, why am I here, what do you want, and where the hell am I?” I yelled.
“First of all, you need to calm down.”
I scoffed and sat on the floor.
“Second of all, none of your questions are going to be answered from me. No one is going to talk to you or save you.”
“Then why don’t you just kill me then?”
Masky’s POV.
“Then why don’t you just kill me then?”
I look at her amazed. She really doesn’t know what I can do to her.
“What, are you really going to stare at me and imagine what you can do to me? Kill me slowly or fast I don’t care. Just end me already!”
Is she really that numb to feel that? Out of all of the people I’ve killed she’s the first to say she wanted to die. I honestly wanted to take the chance to kill her but I just walk out of her room. Why would she say she wanted to die? Based on her life file it looks like she has a great life. Good friends, good grades, popular, and her parents. I honestly don’t really remember what her relationship is with her parents I’ll have to ask BEN for that file later on.
I walk to in the living room and see Hoodie.
“Hey bro.”
“Hell-o Masky.”
He seemed a little on edge. He was breathing heavily which wasn’t right.
“What’s wrong?”
“What do you think what would happen if those files actually got out.”
“Well everyone knows the answer to that. We’ll all go to those hospitals for crazy people and be on medication.”
“I’m scare-d. It’s really weird. I hav-en’t felt fear ever since Slender found u-s.”
“Well, I guess we know how out victims feel when they know they’re gonna die,” I say trying to make a joke.
“Yea-h, ”was all he said looking down.
Everyone in the mansion was scared. For a long time, we lived alright causing crime wherever we go. But ever since that accidental death that’s when things went downhill. Everyone was being tracked down and some of us almost got taken away. What happened that day was something caused by the victim, not us.
I start to get some food for our prisoner since she has some value in her. I make her a sandwich and pour a glass of water.
I make my way towards her “room” and knock I hear scampering so I wait for a few seconds before opening the door.
When I do I see her sitting in the same position she was in. On the floor near the window. I take the rock that I got from the house that she threw and threw it in front of me. When I do three legs from a chair fall from the ceiling. I laughed a bit. I kinda knew she would pull something like that since she tried to trick us back there.
“Honestly I admire how you try to run away from us,” I say putting the food down on the drawer near the bed.
“Did you poison it?”
“No.”
“Sure.”
“I really didn’t. I lost my chance to do it before and they’re not going to let me do it again.”
“Fine.”
I take a decent bite and afterward I drink the water.
“See I’m not dead.”
“Alright then.”
She picks it up and starts eating it slowly.
I study her for a moment and look at her (e/c) eyes. They were a bit puffy maybe from crying.
“Hey, pardon me for asking but, were you crying?”
“I really don’t want to admit it but yeah.”
“Why? If it is because of the things I said it was all bluff. You are gonna get help. Your parents should be worried for you.”
She just laughed and shook her head.
“Yeah right, they don’t even know I exist.”
“What do you mean?”
“I thought kidnappers did there research before the did the kidnapping.”
“We do but, I just umm…”
“You just what?”
“I wasn’t paying attention to the whole meeting about the heist.”
“Ahh.”
She smirked and drank water.
“Well since you don’t remember I guess I can tell you.”
“Really?”
“Haha no.”
“Why?”
“Because I don’t want to and it should be obvious to you.”
She was playing with me and I was glad that I had my mask on because I was sweating from nervousness. I don’t usually get nervous but I’m starting to get nervous around her.
“Fine I’ll tell you but, you have to answer my question.”
“Alright.”
“What’s my name?”
“Umm.”
“You don’t know, do you?”
“No, I do but why that particular question?”
“Because my parents always get it wrong.”
“I’m so sorry (y/n).”
She smiled a bit when I said her name. It made me feel a bit, happy?
“You said my name.”
“Yeah.”
“It’s kinda nice to hear a stranger say my name.”
I chuckled lightly. I feel kinda comfortable with her. Oh no, I feel comfortable. This happened before. It didn’t end well.
“Okay, well I have to go now.”
“Hey, no wait!”
I walked out of her room out of the mansion and into the woods.
I don’t want history to repeat itself. Me developing those feelings didn’t end well. I can’t protect everyone I care for. Heck, even with this situation where I don’t even think I can protect Hoodie. He’s kinda vulnerable now that we might get captured.
No One's POV.
Masky stops at a tree stump and lays down on it. He breathes deeply and starts to hear crickets chirping, feel the wind blowing, hearing the leaves rustle. All of the stress of his fears and confusion starts to hit hard to a point where his head starts to ache. He lets the darkness surround him allowing him to fall asleep.
Little does he know (y/n) has those similar fears and confusion. Her love for her parents is dying and so is the love for herself. Her earlier attempt to escape was foiled but she will try again soon. (y/n) body burned with her anger she held inside that it hurt her but she breathed to keep calm. She laid down on “her” bed and felt the cool breeze through the cracks of the room. She let the darkness surround her.
Both of them surrounded by their own hate and distrust only had one friend that can cure it all which was the darkness on that cold night.
