He looked directly at her, "There pretty terrible. I've done some awful things." He sat on a stump putting his head in his hands. "So many people's lives have been ended by my hands. And so many have been saved." he looked up, "It feels like I'm being torn in two. Part of me says that I was right. Those patients deserved to live much more than the scum I killed. But I still killed people. Living, breathing, people, with lives of their own. How can that be right?" He looked off into the distance, "What scares me the most is how much I enjoyed it. I liked killing people. I like the feeling of power it gave me. The fact that everyone around me killed as well didn't help either."
Synthia wandered the familiar halls of the house. It felt so empty with out her friends in it. She turned the corner, running right into Slender. "Oops. Sorry Slendy!" she said looking up at him. 'Its fine child. In fact I was looking for you. The place feels so empty with out the others here. Do you feel like trying another summoning?' Synthia grinned widely, her pointed teeth reflecting the light. "Oh yes! I want to see all my friends again!" 'Good girl.' Slender said patting her head. 'Lets go outside, shall we?'
She sat down in front of him, pulling her knees to her chest.
"Now, I have to tell you something." She sighed, closing her eyes. "When I was sill living with...my father, I...he...took advantage of me. I hated men, with a passion. Not only was I terrified of being hurt, but I hated feeling the way he made me feel. When you found me, I...something was different about you." She looked up at him then, "You saved me from a tragic life. No, that wasn't living, that was simply existing! You gave me purpose. You saved me. Now, can you let me save you?"
She ended in such a quiet voice that at first she didn't think he had heard her.
Synthia and Slender stood a few yards from the house with Hoddie and Masky. 'Are you ready child?' he asked "Yep!" she quickly replied. She new which song to sing. She readied herself.
"Oh, Evander," Aroura sighed, her knees weak. "I love you, too. I never thought I could ever love someone. I...thought my heart was broken."
She looked up into his warm brown eyes, slowly leaning closer.
Synthia began the song. She had heard this one in her favorite movie, though she changed the words slightly.
Boys and girls of every age
Wouldn't you like to see something strange?
Come with us and you will see
This, our town of Halloween
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Children scream in the dead of night
This is Halloween, everybody make a scene
Rip and Tear till the neighbors gonna die of fright
It's our town, everybody scream
In this town of Halloween
I am the clown with the black and white face
Here in a flash and gone without a trace
I am the one at the end of your bed
Teeth ground sharp and no eyes in my head!
I am the one with bleached white grin
Soon my blade will be buried in your skin
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!
In this town we call home
Everyone hail to the Chanter's song
Our man Slendy is King of the Demon patch
Everyone hail to the Pale King now!
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!
In this town we call home
Everyone hail to the Chanter's song!
A massive portal ripped open, pulsing with a black light. People and creatures began to step through. A girl and boy in matching hoodies and blue masks. A pair of monochromatic clowns. A massive, shaggy, black beast, with a skull for a face. A man with owl wings and giant red eyes. A gigantic blue hydra. A herd of Nightmares. more and more came through. Eventually the flow began to slow, finally stopping altogether. "Is that everyone?" Synthia asked with a grunt. It was getting hard to hold the portal open. 'One more I believe.' Slender replied. Out of the portal stepped a man with long tangled black hair, a pure white face, and a massive slit open grin. "Miss me baby doll?" he asked.
"JEFF!' Synthia cried, racing forward. She threw herself into his outstretched arms, as the portal began to close, slowly behind them. "Hey sweetheart." He said hugging her. "Been missen you the last couple weeks. The place has been so dull without you cute little face to perk it up." He knocked on her horns. "Totaly digging the new look, by the way." She gave him a mock scowl. "Don't tease me! Their ugly and I hate them." "Well I think their cool looking. Make you look dangerous! And I do like dangerous." he replied, ruffling her hair. The portal was just about to close, when three more people fell through. One wore a grey trench and a black fedora, while another had a suit and top hat, both covered in rainbow dots. The last one wore a brown vest and khakis. Black glasses perched on his head, and he held a suitcase in each hand. When Slender saw them, he face palmed, saying, "Oh God, not those three." The one in the trench coat spoke. "Hey bro, how you been hangi-" A young woman hopped out landing on the man. "Sorry S.O.M." she said, stepping off him. She glared at Slender. "Did you really think you could leave without me? I am kind of important." Slender sighed, "Sorry Korbyn. I only meant to leave them behind, not you." S.O.M. frowned. "Wow man. What a scummy thing to do to your brothers!"
"Come on!" She laughed, taking his hand and puling him through the trees.
They ran until they came to the front of the house. Then the pain became unbearable. Aroura pulled him close and kissed him until they were both breathless.
"Right now? You!"She spoke softly, whispering in his ear, "Long term? Us to be together. I'd like to live somewhere quiet. Help other girls get out of the situation I was in."
She paused. She hoped he didn't think she was throwing herself at him.
"What about you? What do you want most?" She asked him.
"...Evander? Um..." She held her hands over her face and peeked out between her fingers, "Do you...have any protection?...I've never had to get any..."
She was horrified to have to ask, but at this point in their lives, they didn't need any little Evander's or Aroura's running around.
There was a reason Aroura always wore something over her torso. The scars of her past spread out over her body like a road map. She was self conscious about it. A part of her didn't want Evander to see it, but a bigger part of her knew he didn't care and could help her heal. She slowly pulled the rest of her leotard off and stood before him in her strapless bra and panties.
Slender had spotted the two move into the house. 'Looks like there's hope for them after all' He thought with an smile. Synthia had been moving through the scattered crowds of monsters, finding friends, welcoming everyone back to the home world. She had played a game of Hide-and-Seek with Laughing Jack, given the Hydra a belly rub, and thoroughly brushed her Nightmare Grackle. She was talking with Sally and Jane when she heard a ruckus from over by Slendy. Korbyn had the S.O.M. in a headlock, with his arms pinned behind him. Her eyes glowed blue, causing his tentacles to retreat into his trench coat. "Touch my ass again, and I'll break every bone in your body you piece of scum!" She said loudly, twisting his head farther. "Ow, OW! Ok, ok! Just quit with the neck breaking, please!" The other two brothers were no where to be seen. Synthia giggled. She liked Korbyn. She was so strong and brave. She was like a girl version of Evander.
"Let's run away together. Take Synthia and leave this city. The fighting would stop once she was gone and no one would be in danger," She rested her head on his chest, listening to the steady thump-thump of his heart. She traced circles on his chest. Content to just lay with him. For now.
"Maybe I can help you think of something better?" She teased, whispering into his ear. She reached behind her, unclipping her bra. She threw it behind her. She kissed him again, leaving fleeting kisses along his jaw. Pulling back, she removed the final article of clothing she wore. She laughed as he made another deep animalistic sound in the back of his throat. She liked hearing it from him.
Later, he held her to him while they breathed heavily. She loved hearing his racing heart under her.
"I love you so much," She whispered.
