Journal Entry #28 - The Vision

Here's today's corresponding post form Something Sinister:

I am TIRED! All week he has been just standing out there. Standing. Standing. Standing. Never an inch closer, never an inch farther, and all the time he whispers.

Yesterday after whispering profusely, he came very close to my window. Whatever this is, doesn’t speak out loud. It’s like you feel what he’s saying… no it’s like he makes you feel what he’s saying. He came close and though I couldn’t make out most of what he was saying, I caught the word “Kayle” several times.

In the stead of his usual 20 feet of “personal” space, he gave me about three from my window. I stood up to go and close my curtains and his tentacles kept moving around in the most unignorable way ever and to my horror I found that I could no longer move.

I couldn’t move but there were no more whispers, only his voice. I can’t describe it, it wasn’t a voice that one heard, but one that was felt; and it felt dark and sinister. He told me to look around.  He and I were standing in the middle of the woods. There was a little cottage and between us and it there was a small lake. I glanced toward him but he was gone. I took a second glance around.

The house and lake were both of them in a clearing. From what I could tell, the place hadn’t been touched in a long time. A path wound from where I was standing, around the lake and to the house. I felt uneasy. I heard a noise and looked around again. I turned back to the path and saw her. She was wearing an off white dress, her pink socks and black church shoes.

For the life of me, I couldn’t decide whether to be scared or ecstatic. “Kayle?” I called to her. She looked up at me.

“Edward,” she said, “Come here, there’s something I need to tell you.” She then turned and started skipping down the path. She sounded so eerily cheery, but I began. I hadn’t even made my third foot fall when my phone buzzed. I stopped and looked at it. No number and it read:

“What are you doing Edward Straussen?”

“Are you coming?” Kayle had stopped and was looking back for me. I was confused but continued to follow Kayle, my phone in one hand. Something was off here, I couldn’t say what but I Knew that something wasn’t right. I followed her until she stopped again. “Do you know who lives here Edward?” Kayle said looking up at me.

I glanced around. I said, “I’m not sure if any one lives here.” Kayle turned and looked into the trees and I was about to look into the trees also when out of the corner of my eyes I saw something moving in the window of the cottage. I looked more closely and saw a shoulder and arm. The hand was gloved and in it was a mobile phone. The hand was still for a moment and then very slowly the hand’s thumb pressed a button and at the same time my phone buzzed.

“You see, but do not observe.” Upon reading this, Kayle spun around and marched toward me in a very threatening way. I looked at her face. Her eyes were blue, and there were black circles around her eyes. I looked at the trees. Their leaves were black instead of green. I backed up until I was on the very edge of the path and almost in the lake. I looked up again and immediately wished I hadn’t. He was standing behind her, his hands on Kayle’s shoulders and on her face a look of extreme terror. “Edward, help me.” was the last thing that she said.

With those words, she vanished. I all ready knew how this would end. I fell to my knees all the same, as everything faded into darkness. I looked up and saw my windows, my hands clasping the drapes still ready to pull them shut. Looking out of my window, I couldn’t see him and I haven’t seen him since.  After I finally drew the curtains, I found a message on my phone. Guess who.

“Why so stubborn Edward? This is the culmination of what you have toiled to avoid. Are you happy with what you have accomplished? We don’t think you are.” If there was anything that could have been done, I don’t know what it was, but it sure seems like Mr. Pseudonym did! Why didn’t he come out and show his back bone? I am tired of all of this, I'm starting to wonder if Fear Dubh is ever going finished at this sick game of his.

POSTED BY EDWARD STRAUSEN

Kayle... she's alive. And she's in danger.

The poor girl's mind seems to be trapped by the Slenderman. It's pure evil I say.

Edward said the cabin was near a lake... could it possibly be the same one I came across? I didn't see a cabin, but... who knows? Maybe it was somehow hidden...

You know, it's kinda funny, (No, I take that back, FREAKY is the word I'm looking for.) I've been watching the Strausen house. Especially the back yard where Edwards' window is. I didn't see the Slenderman one time. This possibly proves the theory that he is seen only if he wants to be seen.

Thealias is quite annoying, and I agree with Edward, why won't he show his cowardly face!? But again, is Thealias the Slenderman? In that case, he has shown his face... er... not his face exactly, but... whatever.

But there's one fact that I think blows that theory down: The hidden figure in the cabin. Whoever it was texted Edward to warn him. It must be Thealias. And judging by the reaction Kayle gave, Thealias wasn't supposed to be there. It could very well be that Thealias is trying to help Edward, all the while being in danger himself.

If only I could contact this mysterious man...

Until next time...
