No One There
It was midnight. I stayed up for hours trying to find any information on a creature I had seen two days ago. It was black and tall with many tentacles. I did not know what it was. I had never heard of anything about something like that. It did not matter now I suppose. What to do now? The clock to the far right of my dark room was ticking. I felt as if it got louder with each second. The only thing illuminating my room was my computer screen.
I finally found a video on the thing I was looking for. "Slender Man" the screen read. Who was Sender Man? It sounded familiar, but I could not remember where I heard it from. Maybe Minecraft? Yes, definitely from Minecraft. My friend had gotten me sickly addicted to that game. I clicked on the play button on the screen. At first it was just a bland white screen. Then a static noise started to play.
The audio progressively got more aggressive every second. Three words now floated around. DON'T. BE. AFRAID. An ominous voice started to drown out everything else. It sounded as if someone took a knife and scraped it against concrete. It was high pitched and then altered to a deeper calmer voice. It said " Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you, I wouldn't lie. I would not leave you. I will comfort you. I will hold you in my arms. Forever..."
Two thoughts went through my mind. One- This is creepy as fuck. Two- What asshole posted this on the internet? I looked at the poster's account. It was Gõtzd Ø. What did the zero with the slash through it mean?
"No. No. No. No. No. No .No. NO. NO. NO!" the voice roared. Now the voice itself was aggressive, never mind the static. I closed the website's window and shut down my computer. What the hell was this? My skin was pale and even after half an hour, I was still not able to get the voice out of my head.
A glass of water would be fine, I thought. I opened the door to my room, careful not to wake up my parents. As I crept through the house as if my life depended on it. And in some way it did, because my parents would have killed me if I had woken them up.
As I opened the fridge, I heard something move. I shuttered at the idea of there being another in the house. I took out a bottled water and closed the fridge door. I could see a figure in the darkness, as if it were binding with it. I could see no human resemblance other than the fact that its many limbs stood straight. Frozen in horror, I could not move as it moved closer. I closed my eyes and opened them again. There was no one to be found.....
I wake up in the morning, realizing I am dead.
