((I thought the car was stopped.))

[raelyn]

((Yeah me too, but I think he meant he was chillin' in the stopped car, like David, Terrence, Jake, and I are. You guys wandered into the forest next to the parked car. The torn-to-shit parked car.))

[Serenity]

((Ahh, okay, never mind then.))

[Tyran]

((He was telling them not to drive away without him)

Faye watched the Overseer stalk into the woods after Kate, chewing her lower lip nervously. She would have followed, but now that the swelling on her back had gone down, she could barely move, she was so stiff. Plus, she doubted her ability to walk very far with out tumbling into something. Her balance was thrown off, likely from the concussion she had.

She tugged the glass out of Terrence's hand, then stared at it contemplatively, turning it over in her hands. Her hair, matted with mud and littered with fragments of leaves, clung to the back of her neck. She brushed at it, annoyed, then paused, grinning. Reaching up, she seized the back of her dirty blonde hair, pull about half of it into a pony tail, leaving two good sized chunks on either side of her face, and her bangs. She slashed upwards with the glass fragment, sawing through the pieces of hair she'd gathered up.

A few seconds later, she held a hank of hair in one hand, the glass shard in the other, grinning like an idiot. Setting the glass fragment down, she scruffed a hand over the back of her head. The hair was barely an inch long now. She probably looked odd, with short hair in back and longer hair in front, but at least she could feel the breeze on her neck now. Ears perked for any sound of struggle, she scanned the forest, smile fading slowly. What if the Tall One got Gavin, or Kate, or Mike, or the Overseer?


I really hate this whole injured business. I feel useless...Please, no one die...

[Watson]

The white haired man showed Faye his usual, lop-sided 'I-don't-know-how-to-smile' grin and sat down beside her, watching as she cut her own hair, waiting quietly. When she was finished he examined the job, actually thinking it to look quite nice. He had never really had any preconceived notions of beauty, but if he did, this might have been it.

Scratching at his own head, his cheeks flushed red when he saw in the car mirror that he really did look like a molting chicken. The offer for a further haircut intrigued him, and he cocked his head to one side at Faye, smiling.

"Um, F-Faye...I'm sorry, b-but could you go ahead and cut my hair...I look like an idi-idiot..." He itched at his neck furiously, his skin feeling extremely itchy.

[raelyn]

Faye snapped back to reality, wiping the distracted look off her face.

"Um, F-Faye...I'm sorry, b-but could you go ahead and cut my hair...I look like an idi-idiot..." Faye laughed, amusement in her eyes. "Yeah, you do look a bit messy, I'll fix it."

Even sitting next to him, she could barely reach the top of his head, much less see it to cut his hair. Faye, gritting her teeth, stiffly and gingerly pulled herself up onto her knees next to Terrence, picking up the glass shard again, wincing as her vision blurred for a few seconds. Picking up a lock of hair, she began to cut it to make it even, then continued to trim various pieces of his hair.

Suddenly curious, she glanced down at Terrence, then opened her mouth hesitantly, not sure whether or not to ask what she wanted to know.

"...So...um...if you want to talk about it...can I ask what your childhood was like? Do you remember anything before the Tall Man started messing with you, or were you too young to remember what it was like before....it...showed up?"

[Watson]

Vague memories flickered behind crystal blue eyes, haunting images which Terrence himself only just barely remembered from his childood. Instinctively the large, lanky man reached up and touched what was left of his light colored hair.

Seeing that his hair was done, and that Faye appeared to be in pain helping him cut it due to his height, he gently nudged her down into her seat and smiled awkwardly. The smile was warm and friendly, but thin lipped and, to a point it was filled with sorrow for the story he had to tell.

"I d-don't remember much about m-my childhood..." The big man sighed and put his hands in his lap, eyes distancing himself into another world, a memory of far away and before. "My first mem-memory is of my mother...sh-she was taking c-care of me, and..."

His eyes closed, the small eyebrows creasing furiously above the bridge of his nose. This wasn't due to the pain of the memory, but the difficulty in which he had trying to recall it. He sighed and reopened them, glancing at Faye.

"Th-then...their death...they were scared...He looked at m-me, without eyes, that blank f-face...He said something t-t-to me but I don't remember it..." Terrence pursed his lips in thought. "I r-reached up and touched my hair, w-went to the mirror...and it was white."

"That's all I can remember."

[raelyn]

Faye listened to Terrence, absentmindedly rubbing her back, before sliding the ice pack out of Kate's jacket, which was still tied around Faye's back, setting it against her forehead to dull her head's pain.

"That's all I can remember." Faye sat silently for a minute, mulling over what she'd been told, before looking up at Terrence, biting her lip contemplatively. Terrence hadn't lived a pleasant life.

Shaking hair out of her eyes, she paused for a moment to take a careful breath, making sure she didn't inhale too deeply, before asking, "...So, after that, what happened?" Faye knew she shouldn't be prying, but she was curious by nature.

Jake always told me, "Curiousity killed the cat." But he never finished it...."And satisfaction brought it back."

[Watson]

"More or less th-the same thing, countless t-t-times, over and over again..." Stretching complacently in his seat and leaning back, the wiry-framed man put his hands in his lap and pursed his lips, sighing. When he spoke, his voice became cold and his eyes became steely.

This was the part that was tough for him.

"F-from then on I was taken t-to the scene of each of The Tall One's killings...b-brutal imager, horrifying s-screams...that became my only c-company..." Terrence involuntarily shuddered with fear, disgust, and anger all at once. So many victims, and so helpless he had been all the while.

Was that why he was making friends so easily? Because by his very nature he sought companionship in any form it could be found? Even for all of his hatred of The Painted-Faced Oneand the Masked Man, they at least were familiar faces and he could hate them for as long as he wanted.

But now...now he had friends. A family. People he loved.

It hurt him inside to know that his family might be in danger, but if what The Tall One said was true, then perhaps...perhaps it was Terrence's chance to protect his family.

"I've n-never had any social interaction, not very m-much anyway...so it st-stands to reason I consider all of y-you a very close family, now..." Turning to Faye in a way that said he was finished with his tale, he smiled gently and brushed some loose hair from his neck.

[GerkinMcGrimley]

Gavin heard a crunching sound ahead........ oh god he turned around and began yelling motioning Kate ahead.

"GUYS WE GOTTA MOVE I THINK HE"S COMING. WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME!!!!"

[GerkinMcGrimley]

((Let's get out of this place and away from slendy.... I don't wanna face him yet. We just fought him so lets get away and fight him later. I mean c'mon how quickly can he heal?))

[raelyn]

"I've n-never had any social interaction, not very m-much anyway...so it st-stands to reason I consider all of y-you a very close family, now..."

Faye shot Terrence a lopsided grin, but the smile didn't quite reach her eyes, her thoughts drifting elsewhere. She fiddled with the hem of her shirt, distracted.

I'm starting to think I feel the same way about everyone with us, too. Maybe it's because I never really had much of a family, and now that my mom died last year, it's just been me and Jake, and I didn't talk to anyone going to my college all that much...I'm willing to bet almost everyone else feels like this....

Scruffing a hand over the newly short hair on the back of her head, she refocused on Terrence, then glanced around.

"They still haven't come back....do you think something happened?" Chewing her lower lip worriedly, Faye tried to stand up, then yelped, sitting back down immediately, as her legs almost gave out under her. "And, I guess I can't go after them for now..."

Scowling, she rubbed her aching back, ice pack against her forehead.
Next time we see Slenderman, I'm getting my revenge for this.

Mia was suddenly jolted into consciousness again by some unknown force. Her head was in massive, throbbing pain. She tried to open her eyes, but only succeeded for a split second, not long enough to see anything. She opened her mouth to gulp for air and blood flowed out. She began coughing. She slumped over to her side, still trying to open her eyes. When she finally forced them open, her vision swam. She tried to spit the blood out but only coughed some more.

David layed in the back seat staring up at the ceiling. After lighting that son of a bitch on fire his mind has been filled with images. Images of his past that were sealed away in a bus accident several years ago. An accident caused by that monster.
