I put on a black hoodie, black skinny jeans, and (F/C) hightop converse. Then I attached my knife holder to my leg and slid a sharp knife in. Next I put a knife in my shoe and tied my hair up into a high ponytail. Finally, I went to the bathroom to do something with my face.

"I wonder if since I can shift into other people if I can shift into myself but with like makeup on." I thought, staring at my face in the mirror. I closed my eyes and imagined myself exactly as I was right now, but with red eyeshadow surrounding my eyes, and stretching onto part of my face, looking like a mask, but with eyeshadow. I opened my eyes and smiled when I saw it had worked.

Next I decided to add something else. I imagined myself with cut in tears running down my cheeks, just like the ones I put on my victims. I imagined each cut, leading from under my eye, right in the center, to the bottom of the chin. Next I imagined the skin surrounding it appearing red and slightly bloody. When I opened my eyes I was satisfied with the result. (A/N- I literally couldn't find a pic of this so hopefully you guys get it).

Then I walked out of the bathroom and into the basement living room where everyone else was. A few of them looked at me weirdly but no one made any comments.

"(Y/N), there's actually a reason why we're here. After the incident with your father, Slender wanted to make sure there wasn't anyone else who might show up unexpectedly someday. So he did some research and found a girl named Jane who you used to be friends with. He wants you to kill her." Masky explained to me, keeping it short.

Jane. I wonder how she's doing. I doubt she missed me, in fact, by now she's probably already forgotten about me. Thoughts about how terrible she was to me flashed in my head. "Yeah sure, no problem. I'll take her out." I said, not really caring. Masky probably thought since she used to be my best friend that I wouldn't want to kill her, but slicing tears into her face sounded very satisfying.

"I'll go right now, can you take me there BEN?" I asked, not wanting to drive all the way there. "Duh, of course I will." He responded playfully, smiling. "Okay it's settled then." I said, walking towards the TV with BEN.

"Wait! (Y/N), there's something you need to know about Ja-" Masky started, but i didn't hear the rest of the sentence. BEN and I traveled through the TV, and before I knew it I was standing on solid ground. "I wonder what he was going to say." BEN said, looking around.

"I dunno, probably nothing important." I replied, stretching my arms above my head. I was in what seemed to be an upper class apartment. It was dark, but some moonlight shone in from the large floor to ceiling windows. I walked around, getting a feel for my environment. Then I decided to search for Jane.

I walked down a hallway and opened the first door. It looked like a small office but upon closer inspection, I noticed a cork board. It had pictures of dead people and string was strewn from picture to picture. "What the fuck?" I asked aloud, staring at the board in confusion.

At the center of the board was several pictures and at first I didn't recognize who the people were, but then I realized. These pictures were of all the creepypastas before turning into who they are today. I quickly motioned BEN to come over and he gasped. "What is this? Who is this chick?" He asked, confusion and worry lacing his words.

"Let's just get this over with, then we can take pictures and report it to Slender." I said, walking slowly out of the room. BEN followed. I opened the next door and inside was a modern bathroom, complete with everything you could need. I shut the door quietly and crept to the next one. It was a guest room. I sighed and shut the door. "Only one more door left." I whispered, walking to the last door in the hallway.

I took a deep breath and opened it. There was no one here. I walked in, searching for any sign of Jane. The bed was messed up, as if someone was just sleeping in it. Suddenly, I heard a loud thud from directly behind me. BEN was on the floor holding his head, and above him was Jane.

"BEN! Are you okay?" I shouted, making my way towards him. He chuckled darkly. "You shouldn't have done that." He said, turning around towards Jane who was holding a bat. She didn't look scared at all. I got an uneasy feeling, looking at the smile on her face.

"BEN, this is my mission, let me handle it." I said to BEN, slowly pulling my knife from its sheath. Without warning, I bolted towards Jane, stabbing her in the back of her leg. But as soon as I took the knife out, her wound healed and I felt a sharp pain in the back of my leg. The wound I inflicted upon her, transferred to me.

"You might as well give up now, (Y/N), anything you do to me will only happen to you. The only way you can stop me is by killing me and that will kill you too." She laughed. I stared at her in horror. "What happened to you?" I asked, almost afraid of the answer.

"Well I guess I'll tell you since I'm only going to kill you anyways. After you left, these people approached me looking for you. They said they needed to talk to you about some 'stories' you read. They explained to me that some of the stories you read were not fiction. They were, in fact, very real. I couldn't help but to be interested. They told me that they were an organization who believed in the existence of something called 'creepypasta' and wanted to prove the stories weren't just stories. They explained that they saw potential in you, but I explained you weren't here anymore. They wanted to build a team of people, informed about creepypasta, and band together to destroy them. I thought it was silly until they promised me so much money I couldn't refuse. They gave me this ability and had me gather information. But I would have never thought I'd find you breaking into my apartment with the one and only BEN Drowned. Now, if you can excuse me, I need to take the both of you out." She grinned maniacally, launching herself towards me.

I dodged her at the last possible second and aimed my knife at her, stabbing her in the shoulder blade. "(Y/N), I told you, you can't win this. Even if you kill me, you're only killing yourself." She tsked, pulling a knife out of her pocket and lunging at me. I felt a sharp pain in my shoulder, but managed to avoid her attack.

BEN finally realized he should be helping me and leapt up, charging at Jane. He tried shocking her, but only shocked himself in the process. BEN fell to the floor, clearly not handling the shock well. "Fuck, BEN are you okay?" I asked, worriedly. Suddenly, I felt a sharp jab in my back. I looked down, and a blade was sticking out of my stomach.

The pain was excruciating, and I became dizzy. "Fuck no, not right now." I thought. I needed a solution and quick. Then... I had an idea. I imagined myself without the wound, imagined it healing. I pictured each organ she pierced through, healing. The knife fell out of my stomach and I mentally cheered. "I didn't think that was going to work to be honest." I said quietly.

Then I whipped around and tackled Jane, kicking her knife as far away from her as I could. "You can't kill me! It'll kill you too! Face it, (Y/N), I win!" She laughed, not even struggling to get out from under me. I laughed.

"You got one thing wrong, Jane. You assumed I'm human. But I am no longer like you" I said smiling, as I morphed my face, copying Jeff's smile and BENS eyes. Her face instantly became frightened. I smiled wildly at the pure terror in her eyes. "And because I am no longer human, I cannot die. This may hurt me for a while, but it's not going to hurt me as much as it hurts you." I said, holding my knife above her.

"Wait, (Y/N)! Please! I'm sorry! They made me do it! They paid me! Join us and you and I can be friends again!" She pleaded, tears rushing down her face. Mascara was smeared under her eyes and I scoffed at how pitiful she looked. "You hurt BEN." I said, lowering the knife closer to her. "Forget about him! I'm your best friend, remember?" She said hopefully, smiling the smallest of smiles. I looked down at her, pretending to think it over.

Then I grinned happily at her. Her face lit up and I stabbed her in the heart. "We... were never... friends..." I said, my consciousness fading as I slipped into the void. My chest burned and I could feel blood spewing out of me. "Totally... worth it" I managed to say. Then I blacked out.

-le time skip-

I woke up with a pounding headache. Each time I took in a breath of air, my lungs burned and screamed at me to stop. Each heartbeat felt like a thousand knives, stabbing me all at once. But even through the pain, I smiled. "Still worth it" I whispered, my voice sounding dry and cracked. Then I slowly opened my eyes.

"(Y/N)? What's wrong with you and waking up way too early." Asked EJ from across the room. It looked like I was in his lab. He came over to me and looked me over. "How do you feel?" He asked. "Mentally I feel fucking great. Physically, I feel like shit." I said, wincing as another sharp pain crossed through me.

EJ sighed and turned around, grabbing something off of the counter. In a flash, he stabbed me with a needle and injected me with some random fluid. "What the fuck, EJ?!" I shouted, immediately regretting it as more pin ripped through me. "It'll make the pain go away." He said, shrugging as he walked away. He opened the door and left the room, leaving me to wait for the pain killer to kick in.

Then BEN ran in.

"Are you okay?! I'm so so sorry I couldn't protect you...." he said, tearing up. This time, I felt a different kind of pain in my heart. "BEN, come here." I demanded. BEN walked over to me nervously, clearly scared of what I might do. "Closerrrrr." I said. He finally stood right next to me, and bent down so that we were eye level. I grabbed his face, and pulled.

Our lips connected and fire ran through my veins.

"Don't you ever blame yourself for this again." I said, staring deeply into his eyes. BEN nodded his head slowly, seemingly in a daze. "And anyways, I just remembered that I can heal myself anyways. This shapeshifting thing has a lot more perks than I thought." I explained, shifting so that my wounds were healed. I still felt sore, and I wasn't sure if it was because of the stuff EJ injected into me or if my shapeshifting couldn't get rid of pain.

"I wonder what else you can do." He said, holding his hand to his chin, and thinking.

Without thinking, I mumbled "you" before instantly regretting it as BENs head shot up and he stared at me.

"What was that?" He said, the surprise leaving his face, only to be replaced by a wide smirk. "Uhhhh it was- it was nothing" I said stuttering and blushing, trying my best not to make eye contact with him. "Oh was it now?" He asked, playfully leaning closer to my ears. "Because I'm pretty sure I heard you say something else." He whispered, his eyes darkening. "Fuck." I mumbled, realizing what I had just gotten myself into.
