((Well...that was some powerplay. I actually had some ideas for notebook...and, the first dozen or so pages had nothing to do with Slender Man. It was just a journal at first. But, then, yeah, some sightings. It doesn't go all crazy until later on in the notebook...))

Faye twisted fitfully as something touched her lips, cold water pouring down her throat. Through the haze of monsters and moving trees, she heard Gavin whispering in her ear, calming her down.

Opening her eyes, she blinked, hearing gunshots behind them. She sat up panicked, but Jake pulled her back, muttering smoothly to her. "Stay down, stay down, it's fine. You're okay." Faye stared at him, fever addling her brain, before asking, "...Did....did everyone make it out?"

Jake nodded firmly, setting Faye at ease. She saw Gavin, his facial features finally forming out of the mess of blurring colours her feverish eyes saw. She breathed a sigh of relief, focusing dully on the shape next to him. A...a woman? I don't recognize her... Faye raked sweaty blonde hair away from her eyes, before leaning over Jake dizzily to examine the newcomer.

She wasn't aware that she looked quite creepy, her hair having formed a golden halo around her head during her fits, blonde locks sticking out in all different directions, and her blonde bangs falling back down to obscure her eyes. "Whassat notebook?" she asked, speech slurring in another fit of dizziness.

((I like how weird/stupid feverish!Faye is... XDD And sorry if I'm only posting sporadically, my dad is retiling the shower and needs my help from time to time.))

[Serenity]

((Can Gavin sort of edit that out? Or, at least be vague about it? I wasn't really going to do the whole creepy references thing. He knows eventually that the notebook will never be seen by anybody so he uses it to keep himself sane. But, yeah, he does draw Slendy a couple of times.))

[Serenity]

Kate snatched back the notebook, knowing that it belonged to her brother made it that much more important to her. "Don't touch it, please," she murmured, holding it close.

She realized what Gavin had said. "That thing killed my..."

Her grip on the notebook increased as her fists clenched down. She looked down at her lap, trying to keep them all from seeing her cry. No, no, no, no...he's...that thing...

She sobbed silently to herself, ignoring everything around her.

The Overseer turned for a moment, noticing the Masked thing still chasing him. God dammit, how fast could these things run? He turned to face foward and kept running, moving back towards the path. He had to get out of these trees....

Suddenly, a gunshot. The Masked Man shrieked and ran into the shrubbery, and the Overseer turned. It was one of his teammates. "Come on sir!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The mass distangled itself, limbs vanishing into nothing. He slid to the ground, a dull thud and a small bit of dirt being the only signs he had landed. Four tentacles remained, keeping him in the air.

One hand raised itself to adjust his tie, and the Slenderman turned to watch his prey.

Running. All running, and his servants running as well....

The creature shook it's head and let go of it's tie, starting to move after them.

((I edited it take a look and tell me what you think.))

Gavin looked at Faye. "Good to see your awake." he smiled.

Then the notebook was taken back and he was caught off guard. Kate began to cry. After a minute he did an uncharacteristic thing. He hugged Kate. She looked so sad and he knew the feeling. "I'm sorry I didn't know how important it was. I've lost people too and I'll help you through this"

[Serenity]

She felt Gavin hug her but she didn't budge. She just silently cried to herself more. That thing caused Matthew's disappearance and now it wanted to finish the job and get the other sibling. "Matthew..." she whispered, now knowing that he was most likely dead. Any hope of his return was gone.

((Thanks, but could you remove the 'Death approaches' thing? That's what I had a beef about the most.))

[GerkinMcGrimley]

((no i don't see why. I want something written there so if you have a better idea for what to be written.... I don't see the big deal.))

[Serenity]

((He's not going to go crazy and start writing messages. He uses the book to keep himself sane, and since he knew no one was going to read it, what's the point of writing cryptic messages inside? If you must have something written there, then put, "What is it...?"))

[raelyn]

Faye returned Gavin's smile shakily before peering at the new girl, whom Gavin had hugged awkwardly. Still sprawled across Jake's lap, she reached out to cautiously touch the girl's arm. Faye had always been comfortable with physical contact, and this girl needed all the help she could get. Faye knew all too well what it felt like to feel like you'd lost your brother, though hers, fortunately, hadn't been dead.

Slipping her hand onto the girl's shoulder, she kept it there, repeatedly whispering in a low voice, "It's okay...it's alright..." as the girl cried, silently.

In her feverish mind though, all she felt was blind and all encompassing fury, directed at this Tall Man and his stupid Masked helpers. Her jaw clenched, her free hand balled into a fist.

[GerkinMcGrimley]

((would "Why is he here" work......c'mon))

[Serenity]

((Fine, yes.))

[Watson]

((Gavin, man, you really gotta cooperate. Not to be a dick, but it's just not cool to make someone's character do something they would not do. It's respectful to the player not to do such things, just like it's respectful not to dominate the story and try to impose ideas upon other players. ))

Everything had happened so fast, it ws all a blur and a rush of emotions. Faye had become ill, the Tall One had finally revealed himself back at the factory, forgotten and long gone, and they had all bumbled into this new girl in their vehicle. Finally regaining his composure, Terrence peeed around and folded his arms across his chest.

Faye had finally come to, and he thought that he saw rage in her eyes. For that brief moment, as thesick girl comforted the distraught one, he could see a kinship in Faye's eyes. The same fury and anger with The Tall One that he himself felt every waking moment, albeit for other reasons.

Suddenly it hit him!

Each member of the group shared a common bond in their despisal of the Tall One, for each their own reasons:
-Terrence himself for having his life taken away.
-Faye for almost losing her brother.
-Mike for his friends and his trust.
-And now Kate, with her team having been crushed.

All of them, each one shared this. And perhaps that was the catalyst, the key...perhaps this small band had forged a group based upon fate, and their mutual goal not to run from the Tall One...but to fight him.

[GerkinMcGrimley]

((are you mad about it cause i'm not trying to step on anyone's toes))

[Serenity]

Kate managed to stop crying, Gavin and the girl's comforting helping her. She composed herself and felt her throat. She needed some water. Coughing a little, she dried her tears.

"Thank you," she said meekly. "Is there...any water left in my canteen?"
