《The Victims⦻》4. Slenderman was stalking me
Advertisement
This happened last night, so most of it is 100% true, and I was pretty freaked out about it.
Recently I have gotten into Marble Hornets [if you have not seen it watch it NOW - it's awesome], and the idea of Slenderman, a tall being with abnormally large limbs and jet-black figure is freaky to say the least. In fact, I was slightly obsessed more than creeped out, and wanted to believe that such a being existed, don't ask why.
The first thing I remember was running in a deserted town, like an apocalypse had occured months before. Rusted fences and houses torn apart, rubble and metal scraps littered the streets and alleys. I turned around every so often, and would feel the strangest presence nearby. Someone or something was watching. I ran down the nearest alley, I heard faster footsteps close behind. As I looked back I saw nothing, nothing was following me. Yet I continued to sprint with heavy footsteps, until somehow I ended up on the roof of a garage. I looked around, the street I had left behind was empty and silent. I thought I had escaped my stalker.....until I glanced over the gardens into a kitchen window about 200 yards away. A black shadow quickly moved out of view, still in that house. I knew it saw me, and I knew there was knowhere to hide, it would always find me. My reaction was simply jumping down and smashing through the front door of a nearby house. Inside I stumbled around, hoping to escape elsewhere. Instead, by chance, I ran into a survivor, a survivor of whatever the hell happened to the place. They said nothing, we were both on the floor after being knocked down. I gathered my breath and glanced back at the front door. There it was.

A tall, freakish creature stood there, faceless, yet still staring at us from the doorway. I was frozen, the survivor was frozen. The figure did not make a move either. In an attempt to feel even the slightest bit dominant, I ran towards it in hopes of tackling it down and making myself threatening. However, I hit it like you would if you were a child running at someone older. It just looked down at me, never breaking the stare. I backed away outside, the survivor had made a run for it. The final moments of this nightmare I remember pulling out my phone in an attempt to photograph evidence if I were to vanish from this abandoned world.
I woke up, slightly panicked, but more relieved that I was dreaming. Even after all that had happened, I was still fascinated by Slenderman, but the truth behind him is still hidden. I got up feeling somewhat refreshed, and felt good about things.
Then I looked at my phone.

A new world with nearly unlimited possibilities. A status, classes, magic and monsters. Sounds good? Well, for Ilea it didn't come quite as expected as for some other protagonists, nor was there a king or god to welcome her. The grand quest? Well, she might figure that out someday but for now, a new world with new food is prize enough. Her fists at the ready, she's prepared to punch and get punched, however long it takes and however many limbs she might have to regrow. A story I've started writing now quite a while ago. Transported to another world, somewhat standard fantasy setting with my beginner attempts to make it dark but funny. There are Litrpg elements here but I do hope it's not too heavy and annoying. The fights should be interesting and aren't just numbers vs numbers. Contrary to the title the protagonist will be quite an offensive fighter. Ilea Spears is your average sarcastic kick-boxing fast food worker and soon to be student. She will be transported to another world rather conventionally and will be confronted with survival in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. My experience is incredibly lacking. If you find yourself hating it early on, do convey your anger in a detailed comment or review :) I want to get better but without any feedback it's simply quite difficult. Quick heads up: Around chapter 120 there are a bunch of longer PoV changes that I discontinued again shortly after. The Arc around chapters 150-200 is darker than the rest and the themes shift quite a bit. Just know that it goes back to what you've come to know after that section. Thank you for reading. Quick update June 2019: Many complaints regarding the formatting, specifically spacing in conversations and of course the usage of the present tense in the first 36 chapters have been addressed. I'm of course learning by the day but compared to how it was before it should be an improvement at least. Chapters usually around 3k words Cover art by Kevin Catalan

It is a weapon, raised and trained for one purpose: war. Instead, it ends up broken long before the battle, losing what little meaning its life may have held. But that might just mean this weapon has a chance to choose its own fate. How should a broken weapon that knows nothing and can do nothing, live in a world of humans? A few notes: This story uses a hard magic system and is set in a somewhat realistic middle ages time period. Tagged sexual content just in case it comes up later.
