Slenderman
(Daily life of the cursed fairy)
All the time, I thought of myself as a lone being. Waking up in a dark, madness clad night, what I saw in front of me was only the desire to kill and massacre all the things around me.
But that was about a few years ago. Nowadays, I feel more free from my desires and just live to satiate my curiosity of the world that I lived in.
It all started when I stumbled upon a mysterious abandoned shack deep in the woods as I was taking my midnight stroll. Out of curiosity, I peeked inside and to my surprise, the inside of the shack looks rather different from what I expected.
There were countless arrangements of... Books?
They were placed neatly on shelves that were sheltered by a night sky ceiling. I froze, fascinated by the unfamiliar furniture placement.
"Greetings, how may I help you?"
Not far from the main door, a reception table was placed. Behind it was a figure of a young man i
RickyThe day had finally come of when Ricky shared some sweets with the stalker. Since the morning up until the last few moments before he stepped out from the house, Ricky had been feeling giddy. He couldn’t help breaking into an idiotic smile as he prepared the sweets.Ricky grinned as he placed the tarts and cupcakes on a tray and covered it with the food cover. Then, he wrote a simple note to the stalker saying 'For you' and placed it neatly on the kitchen counter near the cover so the stalker could see it.Before he head out, he took a last glance towards the kitchen before making his way to school.A few moments after the door was locked, a small figure sneaked out from the kitchen cabinet and went to the counter.It giggled.***"Last night was awesome."Adam said monotonously. He stared blankly at the hallway ceiling."Indeed. You didn't sound happy though." Ricky replied
Noel"This is just a slight nosebleed from the weather. It will get better soon if you rest for a bit." The doctor said while prescribing some meds for Noel."I see. Thank you so much, doctor."The doctor nodded and smiled. Then, he told Noel to rest on the bed for awhile before going back to work. It was to prevent any aftereffect from the nosebleed.After the doctor had left, Noel laid on one of the beds that were prepared in the infirmary. Luckily there were curtains that surrounded each section of the bed, blocking the bright sunlight.Noel held his forehead with his trembling hand, grunting once in awhile as he felt his Mana draining. His breath also felt heavy as if the hole in his chest prevents him to breathe.He just noticed what happened to him earlier at the cafe after slightly calming his throbbing head down."…Is this, 'Spirit Pierce'?" He muttered.It made sense given the amount of pain that he felt,
RickyAn hour after Noel fell asleep, Ricky was playing with his smartphone to kill time. Sometimes, Noel would smile and snuggled happily with Ricky's hand. Ricky grunted."Just when is he gonna let go of my hand? It's hot." He sighed as he scrolled through the pages of his social media.Suddenly he heard a door knocking and turned around to look at the door."Ooh~ how sweet." Adam and Taylor were standing at the door, grinning like a pair of idiots while shooting him teasing glances.Aw, shoot."What do you imbeciles want?" He scorned, his tone was stern but lowered down to not wake Noel up."Well, we're here to return your wallet, and we told our members about your lateness as well. More party I guess." Adam mischievously smirked, but also lowered his tone to respect the sick person.Taylor who became the silent listener to their conversations slowly sneaked closer to the bed where Noel was sleeping."Oh, what is this
Noel"Your majesty!"Madam Ruzka called as she stood up from her seat. Izfar who was with her also stood up, his face brightened in delight. Noel emerged from the circle shaped ankh below him in his spirit form. Upon seeing the sage and the prime minister, he smiled brightly."It's been awhile. How have you guys been?"He asked first. Izfar stepped in front of him and bowed down."All Hail to His Majesty, the Emperor!" Was the first thing Izfar said out of respect to the Great Emperor of Ishtiya’ who’s hovering in front of him. Although Noel was in his soul form, the authority continuously oozes out from him, indicating absolute leadership.Noel chuckled. “Please, cease this. We don’t have much time, don’t we? I’ll have your pleasentries when I returned in my physical form.”“Indeed.” Izfar stood up and curtly adjusted his long robe—which reached down below his feet to the fl
NoelNoel wailed, in a mysterious, unknown tone.Was he wailing because he was sent home early by his club leader? Or his wails sounded more like he’s moaning in happiness because Irya' brought him the sweets that Ricky made for her out of gratitude?Pretty close, but that's not it.The cause of him wailing as he continued on kicking the air while rolling vigorously on the bed was the fact of the unending memory clip of the second hand embarrassment he experienced that was playing in his head since earlier.What did he do?Well, not only he felt guilty having a nosebleed in front of his colleague, which was bearable, because nosebleed are a common feat in summer, he also experienced the most embarrassing moment in his life, by crying, inelegantly, in front of a person he wasn't close to. He was caught up in the moment and even dared to make contact with none other than the person he despised, which was Ricky Kruger.He sat up ab
NoelIn the distance, the sound of crickets slowly died, as if giving him space to start his story."As the child born from the night, we have tremendous magic power in our bodies, parallel to our mystical title."Noel clenched both of his hands together and rested it on his lap."However, when we were born, our young bodies couldn't contain that magic power, so our creator decided to separate the magic power into someone else, that is our other half, the Sol."Irya' listened enthusiastically. Her small hands were clenched on her lap and she stopped eating the sweets.All the time, Noel explained to Irya' using "we, us, our...", because the child of night were born from the same pieces.Apart from having the same night colored hair and lunar grey eyes, one child of night won't live to meet another child, as one's death indicates the birth of another. Noel was the recent child of the night that was born.And Griselda, was his fi
Ricky"Oh...."Ricky staggered.In his hand, was a piece of paper written with huge and bubbly letter saying "Thank you. My name is Irya'." with a little heart at the end of the sentence.He stared, wondering whether this day was the best day of his life. Did he do anything good these past few days? He didn't bully anyone and didn't hook up with anyone so maybe that counts.Still, he brought the piece of paper close to his chest. He didn't care whether the sweets, along with the whole tray disappeared or something, what he knew is that he was happy that night.He then proceed to walk to the kitchen stove as he noticed a big pan was placed on it when he first entered the kitchen. He opened the lid."Tonight's dinner is grilled chicken, huh? That looks delicious."He grinned, excitedly looking at the mixture of largely cut chicken breast, potatoes and asparagus drizzled with olive oil and some black pepper. The surface was slight
NoelThe night was silent, while occasionally being accompanied by the gust of wind, the crickets sound slowly quiet down, as if admiring something.In a distance, a figure of a young man emerged. Although he only wore a casual outfit of a white long sleeved shirt paired with black trousers and grey long cardigan, the clothes didn't even smear the beauty that the man holds.He stepped along the empty sidewalk. In a distance, he looked ethereal, as if a spirit was trudging on the earth, sightseeing the beautiful night scenery of the mundane world.It was just Noel though.He sneezed when the cold summer wind hit him."Kuh.... It's so cold.... I wonder why I go out right now..." He grunted.Back home, he was having symptoms of unable to sleep, mainly because he couldn't settle down after gotten so much Mana in him. So he decided to take a walk to calm himself down and get him to get tired for easier sleep."I really should be car
