(Y/N)'s POV

Slowly, my vision started to come back, my head was pumping, my body was aching, I felt like I had just gotten ran over by an 18-wheeler.
"Ngh- ahh.." I gripped my head, trying to regain my vision. I can hardly remember what happened before I closed my eyes.
And then it hit me.

Troy...

I'm so sorry.. I wish I could've done more. All this keeps happening because of me.. if only I hadn't rebelled against my mother— I should've just kept being the quiet little child, obeying her orders..

But then I wouldn't have met Jeff, or all the other wonderful people who I have grown to love. Kate, Jane, BEN, and Slender. The people who took me in and called me one of their own. I owe them my life—

"(Y/N)?"
I heard a voice call out to me— slowly I opened my eyes, blinded by the LED's shining over my face
Why did that voice sound so familiar?
"She's waking up- get Slender in here now!"

That voice- no- it can't be.

"Ann?" I groan, my eyes started to scan the room I was lying in. There's no mistaking it—

Im in the Underworld..

"Oh child thank goodness! We were beginning to worry!" Ann frantically panics while embracing me. I had never seen her so worried. I was still too in shock to move, much less hug her back— I looked around and notice I was in Ann's medical room. I was sitting in a hospital bed, with a dirty hospital gown, filled with blood. What even happened..
Little by the little, the memories started to come back to me. I gripped my shoulder, feeling the stitches that covered the gun shot, and looked at my arms, all patched up to stop the wounds form gaining infections. I was linked to an IV and I could see the heart rate monitor right beside me. I can't believe I'm back here..

"Home..." I croaked.
"Yes darling— you're home." Ann smiled finally letting go of me.
"W-where's Jeff?!" I said anxiously. The monitor began to beep faster.
"I-I thought you would know-" Ann said with concern.
Beating faster now. Her eyes darted to the monitor.
"N-now (Y/N) relax darling—"
"No! I need to find Jeff—"

My mind flashed back to the scene. The scene where the mysterious cloaked figure stole my Jeffrey. "Where is the blanket I had around me Ann?!"
"R-right here darling.." she brought over the white stained sheet, handing it to me.
I fumbled through and found the paper I had stuffed in it— the blood stained paper that sat on the window sill.
"I'm going to get Slender. Do not move (Y/N). I mean it." Ann said grabbing her white lab coat and leaving the room.
I hadn't had a chance to read it, but finally, I can read the one thing that might give me a clue as to where I can find Jeff.

If you happen to be reading this, I suppose that means you're alive. I'm glad. After all, I'm doing this all for you, my dear (Y/N). I owe you after all.
You've had everything and everyone stolen from you. Friends, family— but do not fret. You will be avenged, as will all the other innocent lives these monsters have taken. I swear by it. And I will start my vengeance by taking the life of the monster that destroyed yours. 3 days.
-B

"W-w-what does that even mean?!" I flip over the note trying to get some kind of clue as to who this is—
"Please.. not Jeff. I can't lose him— I can't—" my heart cries out, craving to hold my beloved- I reach out to nothing— my tears have clouded my vision, I can't even seem to breathe. The lump in my throat thickens— I just want this night mare to end.
"JEFFERY!!!!!" I screamed out— please. Someone hear my cries—

"(Y/N)?!" The door bursts open and my eyes dart over to the man I have grown to see as a father.
"D-dad!!!" My wails screamed through the mansion. I didn't care who heard. I just wanted to be touched, to be told it will all be okay.

Ann stood back in surprise and looked at Slender for some kind of reaction. There was none. He simply walked over to my bed side, sat next to me and wrapped his arms around my frail aching body. I couldn't stop shivering, I couldn't stop crying.
"W-w-why do I r-r-ruin e-everythinggg?!!!?" Snot poured down my nose, with each word my body felt more weak.

"My beautiful daughter. Cry no more. You are safe now my love. You are home. I promise no one will hurt you or my other children ever again. For if they dare harm a single hair on you once more, my reign shall terrorize man kind for a millennia once more." His calming voice shared a hint of love, sympathy, and anger all in one. He too was trembling. Whether it be from sadness or anger I do not know. But I all know is I finally have my family back. He wiped my tears with his extended arms, while still hugging me with his two normal arms. I gave in to his grip and sank into his chest. In just want this all to end.
"D-dad.. I- I love you." I couldn't even make out anything in the room anymore. It was all a blur. All that mattered was Jeff.
"I know, (Y/N). I love you too."

-Kates POV-

"Ya know if we had a little more to go off of, like who the fuck were even looking for, that would be fuckin fantastic!!" BEN said annoyed.
"Oh shut it elf, keep on moving them lips and we'll be caught in no time!" I snapped back.
"Will the both of you keep it down?! We're supposed to be listening!!" Jane said looking annoyed at the both of us.

The three of us were hiding behind the gigantic bush that sat right next to the Hemphill's house. It was day break and the crime scene crew was collecting evidence. News outlets had made there way, and the Chief of police was being interviewed. Yellow tape secured the property, and yellow markers lined the front yard.

"As far as we know, we have reviewed the security footage the Hemphills had around the property. We have suspected this was a murder attempt made on the two children out town has finally gotten back. We're not sure why, but we assume it's the same monster who kidnapped (Y/N) (L/N) and murdered Jeffrey Woods family. He may be back to finish the job and unfortunately, the Hemphill's were in the wrong place at the wrong time. We assure our community we are doing everything we can to discover the serial killer's identity but not much can be said. We have little leads to go off on. If you or anyone watching knows anything, please contact our police department. We want these horrors in our beloved town to end."
"Chief- chief! What does his mysterious murderer look like?" A journalist asked.
"Yeah— what should we be on the look out for?!" Said another.
"What should we, as civilians, be doing as precaution?!" Said someone from the group of neighbors hat had gathered outside the home.
"For now, the figure wore a bunny mask, and had a black and red lined cloak. Please ensure your doors are locked and do not go out past nightfall. No more questions." The chief put his hand up signifying that would be all the questions he would be answering today.
All at once the news reporters and journalists huddled together wanting to figure out who this figure is, and why they want (Y/N) and Jeff.

"Bunny mask huh." BEN said curiously.
"So they think (Y/N) and Jeff are victims.. that's good. At least they aren't suspects." Said Jane.
"We've got to get inside and find that footage." I whispered to the two.
"Are you insane?! Do you not see how many cops there are?" Jane said darting over at all the police cars surrounding the home.
"Obviously, dinbat. I ain't blind." I groaned rolling my eyes.
"Hey.. ya know what this means." BEN gave a mischievous smirk. His eyes pointed at one of the reporters who wore a long khaki trench coat, big black sunglasses, and a beige fedora hat. Simultaneously, we all smiled at each other.

"And if you tell anyone about this, I'll come back and stick my foot up yer ass!" BEN cackled.
We managed to lure one of the reportes to the back of the neighbors house by claiming we had inside knowledge of who the killer is. Dumbass. He obviously followed and we had BEN jump him. Literally. He was on top of the roof of the house and tackled the poor man.
"Is stripping someone of all their clothes really a good way to get started in the Overworld." Jane sighed. The reported was terrified, with only his underwear on, he laid on the grass shivering.
"Probably not. But who cares. We ain't up here to repent." I scoffed.
"Here, for your troubles." BEN slid over a $20 to the whimpering reporter.
"P-please, let me live!" He whined.
"Oh please we ain't gonna kill ya." I snorted.
"Where did you get $20?!" Jane said finally cracking a smile.
"Stole it from the whore from Fox Five News." BEN said laughing once more.
I'll admit, my friends may be stupid but they get their shit done.
"Bruh moment." I said giving in to his humor.
We all started to burst out laughing,

"Ahh.. anyway. Let's get this shit on."

After struggling for about 10 mins based on who's gonna sit on who's shoulders— we managed to all squeeze in this trench coat. Thankfully the journalist was plump and thicc. I was on top and sat on Janes' shoulders. BEN was the ass of this coat given he was smaller than both of us girls.
"Move your ass Kate!" Jane huffed.
"My ass?! Just try to make sure yours stays on him!" I said referring to BEN.
"Listen man lets get this over with you bitches stink." BEN gaged.
"How dare you?!" Jane said offended.
"Both of you shut the fuck up!" I said putting on my shades. We found our way back to the Hemphills house and managed to get a window open on the first floor. For the most part it looked the the evidence crew was getting ready to pack up and leave.

"On three, Jane, lift your legs and get in."
"I don't get why we have to wear this if they're leaving—" she said struggling to breathe.
"I am not that fat asshole!" I groaned.
"In case we get caught, duh." BEN said holding his breath.
"He-HEY"
Thump.
My head hit the top of the window sill knocking me backwards. I leaned back, gripping my forehead.
"Mother fu— AH" I fell back, tipping over our pyramid of freaks with me.
"TIMBER—-" BEN shouted.
"Oh- OH GOD-" Jane screeched.

We all tumbled over like a pile of bowling pins and I swear the house shook.
"You know what, fuck this." I managed to crawl my way out the disguise and stood over the two idiots still rubbing their asses.
"Don't tell me it was all for nothing." Jane said groaning.
"I don't care what y'all do, I'm keeping this coat and hat. I look sexy as fuck." BEN said smirking. I crossed my arms, annoyed.
"Pft... haha.. HAHHA!" BEN said laughing, bending over and slapping his knee.
"W-what?" I said getting embarrassed.
"Is there sum on my face?!" I asked again.
Jane looked up end started to laugh too—
"W-wha— gimme a mirror!!" I look over to my left as we're standing in a hallway and realize they had a hall mirror. I realized I not only had the shades on, but one of the lens popped out and they were broken. I looked ridiculous.. my face flushed red- but I couldn't help but laugh.

In the midst of all this sadness, it was nice to just enjoy what we have. The bond we share. I had almost forgotten about the main reason we were here.

"Whats all that noise?!"
All at once the three of us shut up. Someone had heard us, and we could hear the foot steps marching from upstairs.
"Hide!" I whispered. We grabbed the outfit and ran into the room next to us. It ended up being a coat closet, so it was a tight squeeze all over again. All of us were stuffed into this small room with jackets and hats in the midst of it. We left a crack open, enough for us to see who was coming. We immediately held our breaths and saw a blond man standing in the hallway we were just in.

Fuck.
We didn't close the window.
I read his name badge.
Quinn...
"Aye McDaniel— did you open this window?" He shouted.
"Nah man!" Replied a voice upstairs.
I could feel the sweat pour down my forehead. He suddenly turned towards the closet.
I stopped breathing.
His eyes locked onto mine.
Please don't see me.
None of us dared move.
He walked towards us.
This is it.
His hand reached out.
We'll have to kill him.
He looked at me—

"Come here man. Let's get out of here this place is depressing."
He stopped mid tract, his hand gripping on the knob.
He paused for a minute and then let go of the knob.
"You're right. This place is giving me the creeps. He said backing away. The officer known as McDaniel was standing next to him and gripped his shoulder.
"I wonder who could've done this." Quinn said.
"I don't know man. But whoever it is, we'll find them." McDaniel spoke.
"You know I really thought it was those kids who murdered this family." Quinn said.
Their voices started to grow farther and farther away.
"Same man. Regardless, I still think they're hiding something. If someone is going this far to kill them— they've got to have gotten into some deep shit."  McDaniel spoke.
"Maybe this bunny killer is actually a vigilante. Maybe those kids did something so fucked, they've had to had this coming." Quinn said back.
"Whatever the reason is, Chief said he has enough reason to suspect Jeffrey Woods is actually that one legends. What's his name.. agh.. ah that's right. Jeff the Killer I think."

Jane gasped.
My hand clamped over her mouth. The two stopped and looked back.
BEN was shaking..
They looked back..

And shrugged.
"No way, that fairy tail? Well get a load of this— he thinks (Y/N) actually killed her mother." Said Quinn snorting.
"Now that's believable." Laughed McDaniel.
"Ahh if they are still alive, those fuckers are toast the second we find em." Quinn said.

The two of them trailed off.
None of us dared move.

Even if we make it out of this, Jeff and (Y/N) can never come back here..

"What do we do now?"
