Black Roses Beginning (Continued)

The Hiding

Jeff pulled Black Rose out of the closet. "We need to get out of here. Slendy does not look happy." "We could go into Jane's part of the Forest!" He nodded. "If she's still there." They crept out out of the room. "I can help!" She gasped. "Rose, where are you!" He felt the hand in his drift out. "I'll follow you! Trust me." He nodded, walking outside casually. "Slendy! Rose, Wait!" If he could get Slendy far out, they both could have time to get to Jane, LJ, and EJ. Slendy ran out. "Where?" Jeff pointed. "She headed out of the forest!" Slendy made his way out of the door, looking frightened. "Black Rose, come on!" She saw her turn visible. "There you are!" They turned around.
The man that could see her was looking straight at her. Jeff smiled. "Rose! Go, I'll cover you!" She shook her head eyes full of tears. "If you get hurt, I'll won't forgive myself." Jeff sighed. "Fine. Attack!" They ran straight for him. Jeff was tossed to the other side of the room. "Black Rose, there you are." He picked her up. She was hanging, the grip on her neck tight. "You don't scare me. Jeff stay back!" She yelled. "Get Jane!" He nodded, running out. "You little... No matter, you'll die anyway." She shook her head. "Not... Today."
She threw a knife at his face, and like Slenderman, he backed up. "Now you are defenseless. Puny Rose." She growled, breathless, and panting. "It's Black Rose." She heard footsteps behind her, and said, "Jeff, this is my fight, but if things turn sour, everyone attacks. "Of course." LJ stepped up. "But I will refuse to let you fight on your own. Your fight or not." She nodded. "Thank you." She almost blushed, but crack of a knife coming out of the wall stopped her. "Look, the crush and the rogue. "I will not be insulted." Black Rose threw herself onto the weird-looking Slenderman, and Jack ran to his back.
They were both thinking the same thing. If one could get the attention of one side, the other one would be free to attack. But then, things went sour. A tentacle wrapped around her neck in midair. "If you don't back up, the girl dies." LJ paled. "Do what he says, Jack." He nodded, running to the others. Jeff stepped up. "No... Don't..." Black Rose was running out of breath. She wouldn't die, but who knows how long she would be out...
