Welcome to Silent Hill, Slenderman Ch. 4

Chapter Four

      “Who is there? Who are you? Is that you Claudia? Are you here to set me free? Or are you one of Alessa’s creatures?” these were the first words he said upon opening the door. I walk around him and preparing my tentacles for anything suspicious. It seemed that Leonard is blind, which is good because I’m getting sick and tired about people who mocked my appearance, but he can sense my movements. Every step I make and the tentacles slithering around him.

      “Greetings Child, my name is Slenderman. I am an entity that bears a tall figure and a blank face. I am here to ask questions about the whereabouts of this girl named Alessa. If by any chance, could you also tell me how could I defeat her? And who is Claudia? Is she related to you?” Great, I gave him a description of my appearance and it seemsed that he doesn’t believe me.

      “Slenderman, eh? You’ve got to be kidding me! There’s no such thing as that! How absurd! No face and a very tall figure, how ridiculous is that?” He kept on mocking me and my anger has gotten rise again. But I must remain calm if I want to find Alessa.

      “This is no joke sir, if you still question about my appearance, why don’t you see it for yourself?” I intended this as an insult to him. Let’s see now if he can lose his calm.

      “Alright, alright you got me. Listen now, Alessa is a very dangerous person. She has a guardian named “The Executioner”. His appearance would likely be a man, muscular in built, with a giant pyramid made of metal on his head and carries along his very big knife. If you want to get to Alessa, you have to first defeat him.”

      “But, how do I exactly defeat Alessa?” I asked

      “No one knows. Neither am I.”

      Disappointed with myself, I move on to the next question. “Who is this Claudia you were talking about and how is she related to you?”

      “Claudia is my daughter. Apparently, she is the leader of The Order. She is the one who lock me up here. But even though after this, I still love her.”

      I became confused. Seeing that one of his relatives turned him into this, he still felt love to them. I took note of this behavior and left the place. But before I leave, he said to me something I asked for.

      “Oh and one more thing, you can find Alessa underneath this town and you will need a key.  It’s up to you to find it. I’ll give you a hint: the passage can be found at Grand Hotel.”

      “I see, thank you for that. I must leave now.” I said to him. I quickly went downstairs and find my way out of this horrible place. I can hear form the distance, Leonard’s voice echoing through the air:

      “The Darkness is coming!”
