Kate's POV
"Can everyone please, move aside!" Slender called out. The entire room was cluttered with monsters all across the mansion, both inside and outside. All curious of the mysterious failed CP in training and why she's returned.
I wish I knew too.
"Move the fuck aside ya fuckin' linguine's!!!" I shouted while knocking over random monsters.
"Listen to my wife ya baboons!!" Jason said giving me a kiss on my cheek.
"I'm not your- Ugh!!"
Fuckin' clowns.
"Can someone please get Ann!" Jane cried.
"Hey boss, who's the girl??" Asked Ms.P.
"That's (Y/N)! The failure!" Shouted Ticci Toby.
"Oye Jefe, porque estamos ayudando un humano?" La Misericordia questioned.
"Listen can everyone back UP!" I shouted as hard as I could.
The freaks started mumbling but eventually succumbed to silence.

My eyes followed Slender, and I could tell by the muscles of his face he was worried and concerned for the child he grew to care for.
"Kate, Ben, Jane, follow me. The rest of you, back to your rooms." Slender said eerily calm. Nobody moved.
"Well! Ya head the lump of junk! SCAT!" BEN said cockily.
One by one our friends and family reluctantly made a path for Slender and us to follow. They all had the same thing running across their mind

Where's Jeff?

-

As the gang and I followed Slender who was holding (Y/N) in his arms we started side eyeing each other, dying to start asking questions to which had no answers.
"What happened!" Jane shrugged BEN.
"You ask me like I was up there! Ain't it only been like 2 days for them or sum?!" BEN said quietly trying not to disrupt Slender from this thinking.
"How irresponsible does one have to be to screw up this bad in two fuckin' days." I groan.
"She's hurt real bad. I haven't seen Slender this upset since the day he heard Sally's story.." Jane followed.
"Yeah well- Ooph-" I bumped into the back of Slender Man as he came to an abrupt stop.
We finally were at Ann's room.
Slender opened the door with one of his tentacles and there stood Ann, perfectly postured as if she knew this was coming.
"I knew those two wouldn't last long." Ann said solemnly.
"Now is not the time for smart remarks, Ann. I suggest you get to what you're good at and assist (Y/N). Not another word from you until she's awake, understand?" Slender's dark aura started to fill the room, the anger and frustration seeped from his body and infected those around him.
"But I-"
"Enough, Ann." Slender cut her off in such a harsh tone, you would think he was addressing Zalgo.
"Ye-yes sir. Forgive me. I'll get to work right away..." Ann prepared her table and revealed a stand filled with medical tools such as scalpels, scissors, and stitching wire.

Slender headed for the door and relieved the air of his toxicity. He stopped, his back turned to the Nurse.
"You are not to leave this room until (Y/N) has awoken. Is that clear?" He said not looking back.
"Yes, Master." Ann bowed.
And with that, I turned to face (Y/N) one more time.
"I'll find out who did this to you (Y/N). And once I do, I'll kill them myself." I grinded my teeth against each other.
Whoever is responsible will pay dearly— I promise.

As the four of us made our way out of the room, Slender faced us.
"You three, have a special mission." He spoke with such high authority.
The three of us looked at each other and back at our master.
"You are to head to the overworld and find out who did this. But that's not all, my little ones. You are to find Jeff immediately. I sense a great danger coming to our world... and I fear (Y/N) is the link to solving it."
"Are you kiddin'! One look at us and the cops go bam!" BEN sighed.
"Puh-lease. We're mass murderers, a few cops can't stop us." I laughed.
"Guys stop it! Slender, BEN has a point! How will we disguise ourselves up there! We're nothing but walking targets!" Said Jane.
"Do not fret my children. Ms. P has already brewed up the perfect concoction."

From behind the shadows emerged Ms.P. In her hands held three wine glasses, bubbling and begging to be put it good use. The glass cup was home to a teal steaming liquid, and for a split second I could've swore I saw a skull.
I suppose within the chaos of (Y/N)'s arrival, Slender had already planned to send us upside.

"No way Jose- I ain't drinking mysterious drinks anymore. After the last one gave me 18 toes I knew that would be the last drink I ever took-" BEN crossed his arms and looked away, eyes closed while pouting his mouth.
"BEN— that was a prank by Toby and you know that." Jane laughed.
"This drink won't give you 18 toes, my youngling. But it will get you and your friends the ability to be perceived as human."
Our ears one by one perked up, shocked by what master was saying.
"I'd rather have the toes." BEN mumbled.
I couldn't help but laugh.
"You mean we'll look like how we used to?" Jane said hopefully. I looked over at her and I could see the glimpses of hope fill her eyes. All Jane wanted was to be human, create memories with friends and enjoy her youth that was stolen away from her.

Stolen from the same man she's now destined to save.

"Yes, Jane, your faces will be restored to what they were always meant to be. Now drink up. Ms.P will ease the process. Meet me in my office when you're all ready.
The three of us suspiciously stared at the potion meant to be digested. Slender has left without saying another word. Ms.P was gesturing one of us to take the first sip. I hesitantly grabbed the glass first.

BEN followed and then Jane.

"I don't feel any- AGH!!" Jane grasped her throat gasping for air-
"Wha- What's going on?!" I cried out to Ms.P. She simply smiled,
"Now kids do not fear, the pain only lasts for about 30 seconds.
"18 TOES SOUND REAL GOOD ABOUT NOW- ARGHH-" BEN wails filled the hallways and one by one doors flew open.

"What's all this racket im tryna sleep-" L.G said lifting his sleeping mask.
"Seriously—" popped out Clockwork
"IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!" Cried out Laughing Jill.
"PLEASE- MAKE IT STOP!" I cried out as I fell to the ground shaking.
BEN fell to his knees coughing and gagging.
Jane was now silent. I tried to make my way over to her to make sure she was okay but my vision blurred tremendously.
All one by one they turned to us and stopped mid sentence. They could not believe what was unfolding in front of their very eyes.
"J-Jane?!" I could hear Nina gasp.

Jane had regained her natural brown locks and shimmering green eyes. Her skin, still pale but now  had a hint of of a sun kissed gleam and her gentleness had finally returned.
My eyes found BEN-

BEN's eyes had turned bright green, removing any trace of the red daunting gaze he once had. However, they were still sharp and just as hypnotizing. His ears rounded and his hair lost its greasy appearance. His skin became soft and delicate like the normal 13 year old he was meant to be.

The both of them just stared at me.
"What- WHAT! Give me a mirror- now!" Ms.P pulled one out from her dress and handed me her hand held mirror-
I wonder what I look like! It's been so long I hardly remember my own face before I became Kate the Chaser-

I was—

Beautiful

My sharp fox eyes could kill— my long black hair was finally combed and silky smooth. My hands, like the skin of a baby— my lips, a shade of dusty rose. I had never felt so— so me. Even BEN and Jane were the happiest I had ever seen them in a while.
Because for once in our life, just once-
We felt normal.

-

As we made our way towards Slender's quarters, the three of us couldn't figure out who exactly would take Jeff? Why not take (Y/N) too? What happened up there?
"Do you think it's that serious if Master wants us to go up above?" Jane said.
"I think if Master went to the lengths of having P create a spell that hides what we really look like- then yea. Safe to say I think we're in for a treat." BEN smirked.
We finally reached his study and before I could even knock- the door creaked open.
"Slender?" I asked.

"Come children, quickly." We entered his study, and I could've sworn a tornado flew by and trashed the place. Papers were scattered throughout the room, filing cabinets turned upside down, his entire desk was flipped over.
"Uh- should we even ask?" Spoke BEN.
"It's much worse than we thought my children. Much much worse." Said master finally collapsing down on his chair. He looked exhausted, I couldn't possible imagine the pain he was dealing with.

"Talk to us, Slender. Please." I went up to the man who has become my father. I knew I held a special place in his heart, as I reminded him of his first CP in training. The one he loved so much, turned and betrayed him. But not me. I would never.

He gazed up at me, his face muscles worrying and as if he was deciding whether or not it was worth letting us know what was going on.

He relaxed and gave in.

"I've been researching about the disappearance of Jeff. Since (Y/N) is still recovering, I haven't been able to ask her directly of what has happened— or why for that matter. But it is not coincidence. The timing is just too right." He said with an almost quiver to his words. I have never seen the boss this frantic.

"Go on, master." Jane said softly.

He took a deep sigh and continued.
"As you all know, the well located on the outskirts of town isn't the only portal to our world. There are many located all around the globe, different wells in different countries. However, only other fellow creepypastas can access them, with a few exceptions such as The Seer or the next CP in training."
"Yeah that's basic knowledge boss, no average human can pop on in here without your approval or knowledge. BEN said crossing his arms and leaning on the flipped desk.
"Yes well... There is one way that only few know of. And by few I mean Zalgo, myself and the first CP."
"What are you talking about? The first CP died thousands of years ago—" I said.
"Yes—however he took very sacred scrolls of our world and exposed it for millions to read upon in the Overworld. Zalgo and I were able to recover most of the information stolen, many of the scrolls were hidden beyond our knowledge and were lost for thousands of years... To this day I still do not know where to find them. After Zalgo and I had a falling out, our interests towards locating these scrolls fell apart and we never spoke of them again."

"I don't see what the big deal is. So ya lost a couple of pages so what!" BEN snorted.
In a flash, so quick I couldn't even blink the master rose from his seat and stood less than an inch across BENS face, his dark aura returned within an instant and the smell of death and fear filled the air once more—
"If you believe this is nothing but a game BEN DROWNED I can strip you of your abilities and send you straight back to hell with Zalgo where you belong. Is that what you would prefer?" He said violently.
"I-I no- I was just-"
"SILENCE"
BEN said nothing and closed his eyes, his body shaking from certain death.
"Master— please. He's a kid." I cut in.
He quickly turned away from BEN and within half a second stood in front of me. He was so quick I could barely see him move—
I was terrified-
Had I made a mistake—
Why did I speak—

"You're right, Kate. Forgive me BEN. This whole mess has disrupted my thoughts."
The tension had eased and we knew we were safe.

"Master— what is the big deal about these scrolls anyway?" Jane said trying to get back on topic.

"These scrolls contained vital information about our world. Including how to open any portal to our world if preformed with the right ritual. Any human could access the entrance to our home." He sighed.
"W-what? Could you image the chaos? Humans entering our world?! We're at our most vulnerable—"
"Precisely. However that's not all. These ancient scrolls also hold the secret of how to kill all creepypastas by rendering us mortal..."

Dead silence.

No one dared move.

How could we? The pages to our demise were somewhere out in the world and not even Slender knows who has them.

"Master.. why is this just now being brought up?" I asked.
"Yeah— if these pages have been missing for thousands of years, clearly no ones found them yet." Jane said trying to reassure herself.

"Unfortunately, I believe someone has found the scrolls that hold these dark secrets. The ritual to end the life of a Creepypasta is one that can only be preformed once every thousand years, on the eleventh month of the eleventh day. It must also fall on the day of a full Blood Moon, where the line between our world and the Overworld is the thinnest. In 3 days time, the blood moon will be high above us, and it will finally have been 1000 years since the last blood moon has been seen. The first part of the ritual is to open all portals for humans to access. This part can only be completed 3 days prior to the blood moon ritual. It requires the sacrifices of the Godly follower, the devoted maiden and the tainted virgin."

"3 days prior to the blood moon ritual— you mean today?!" Jane panicked.
"Yes my child. I assume (Y/N) being here must mean the portal ritual has been completed as normally she should not have been able to access the Underworld by jumping in the well."
"So humans could waltz in any second?!" BEN shouted
"Yes, however it's unlikely make will as no one willingly decides to jump into wells." Slender replied.
"If humans do start falling in— would we have to—"
Slender nodded, cutting off Jane.

We would have to murder them.

"And in three days— it will be November, 11th..." I whispered."

"Yes. And that's not all to the Blood Moon ritual. The most challenging part requires the blood of a virgin, the heart of a newborn, the eyes of the blind, the teeth of the insane and finally— the sacrifice of a Creepypasta. But it cannot be just any Creepypasta. The ritual requires a sacrifice of a Creepypasta who's pure soul turned corrupted and now has been saved. Now who comes to mind when you hear of those words..."

All at once the three of us spoke—
"Jeff-"

"Precisely my children. Now the question remains. Who wants Jeff dead— and why? Who would go to these lengths to end the era of the Creepypasta? I believe (Y/N) is the key to uncovering the truth. It is your duties to uncover as much as you can for me up above, (Y/N) will join you shortly after I inform her of my discoveries. Go quickly, through the well. Do not return without answers my children!"

It was the first time I had seen Slender this frantic. This ritual, if preformed right, could mean the end of our reign as Creepypasta's.

It could mean our certainty of eternal slumber.
I cannot let this happen.

"You can count on us, Master." I said confidently.
"I know I can. Now go."

It was time.
