(Y/N) P.O.V

"Honey? It's me, can you open the door please?" My fathers voice bellowed from downstairs, sounding almost urgent and intense as it reached passed my pulsating ears and brain. My stomach felt hollow as it gurgled and churned with pain and a sickening pleasure. This feeling is so intense.

Everything was quiet, every now and then I forced myself to get up, only to have gravity pull me back, crashing to the floor and a wave of pain paralyzingly my body once again.

"Open the door now (Y/N)!" My dad once again called, annoyance lacing his serious words, which was surprising, as my father never normally yelled at me for anything. "I-In a sec...ond!" I trailed off, trying to pass my pain off as something minor, so that my dad wouldn't freak out.

I was conflicted, I knew I needed to go downstairs, but my body had other ideas. What would happened if my dad saw these bruises and cuts, bandages and blood? He would flip! But more importantly, what am I going to do about all those killers downstairs just waiting to greet my dad, and not with open arms I'm sure...

The agonizing pain subsided for just a moment, long enough for me to lift my body from its fetal position into one where I was on my hands and knees, crawling from my room outside into the hallway, mentally preparing myself for the stairs.

The pulsating in my head turned into a slightly less painful migraine, enough for me to concentrate on where I was going, that was of course until my right hand had grasped the edge of the long, looooooong wooden staircase. Oh god was it always this far down?!

Here goes nothing... I mentally cooed, trying to ease my nerves. I looked ahead of me slightly, seeing all those murderers poised and ready for action. Why are they so freaked out? It's just my dad. The one who looked the most nervous was Jake, almost fidgeting, trying to get away from the scene that was about to unfold. Why is he so on edge? What is he hiding?

"I'm coming in (Y/N)" a voice said, amused and dark. My stomach once again churned, but I didn't feel sick, I felt more worried if anything. That wasn't my dads voice... But it came from behind the same white polished front door my dad was behind just moments ago.

I felt dizzy and struggled to keep my eyes open, but I held on long enough to notice a black shrouded figure sneak it's way through the front door, a briefcase in hand and a god awful smile that glowed red and poured out a runny black goo plaguing it's features.

"Daddy's home" it cackled, a demonic vibe radiating from the monstrous figure. Claws were where it's hands should be, a long and slender frame, black as night, that radiated a glow as red as fire from its very core that lit up where it's eye sockets should be, almost as if it's head was replace by a skull that was burning from the inside. Horns protruded from this pitch black skull, swirling menacingly and stopping with a tip as sharp as a knifes. What is that thing?

"(Y/N), RUN!" David yelled, pleading for me to hurry up and get my ass out of there. "No need to tell me twice!" I shouted a reply, my eyes now wide and my feet already trying to carry my body away from whatever the hell kind of creature that was.

My first idea was to lock myself up in my room and somehow shimmy myself down the pipe that was conveniently stuck to the outside wall that my bedroom window was on, so that's what I did.

It wasn't too far so I hauled my ass out of the hallway and into my room, shutting and locking the door behind me. Oh god oh god oh god! Shit how will my brother get out?! I mentally screamed at myself, before gathering up enough courage to yell behind me "LOOK AFTER MY BROTHER PLEASE!" Intending for the new guest to just, kindly ignore that message and not come upstairs to look for me.

I quickly grabbed my school bag and stuffed my phone, my charger and the necklace my mum left me that I always forget to wear and bolted straight for my window. As I looked outside it, it only then occurred to me that, of course it's a goddamn storm outside! Lightning and rain collided with the ground, resulting in loud cracks and the calming pitter-patter of water hitting the ground. It was quickly turning night, but the sun still managed to light up the dark and angered clouds, only just enough for me to see the ground, and how far away it was.

I mentally gulped and turned my attention towards the white pipe that clung loosely to the side of the house. Here goes nothing. I opened the window and felt a gust of wind almost knock me on my arse, causing alarm to set in even more. I reaaaaaaaally don't want to fall!

I slowly put one leg out and tried to find some sort of platform for my foot to rest on while I moved the rest of my body outside. Just as I had gotten a foothold on a brick from the outside wall, my door slammed open causing me to jolt slightly and loose my handling on the window frame.

You know that feeling, of adrenaline rushing through your veins as you realize your impending doom? When everything goes in slow motion? Well that's exactly what this didn't feel like.

My eyes were wide with shock and horror as this things claws dug into the already sensitive and scratched up skin on my wrists. "I̸̺͖̦͔̫̟̥͘ͅ'̷̩̟̹̻͉͜m̵͔̲̕ͅ ҉͙̮̳͉̭̻̪͟ć̛̟͞o̠̝̤̰m̶̖̘̮͟͞i̵̢͔̯̝͉̰͖͉̜n͏̳͔̠͇̘̳g̣̙ ̡̭̠̰̠̬̕͞f͏̰̲̤͕̦̯o̶̺̝̳̱̝̕͡ͅr҉͎̺̗͈̬͓͍̺͓ ̮͎y҉̮̦̩̠͍̞̠͠o͡͏͏̙̳̱͈u̷͙̥̙̺̻͍͞,̵̱̻̪ ̼͖̘̫͘͟m̝͍̠ỳ̵̢͔̱͍͖ ̴̡͎͚͉̣l͔̬̼̳̪͘͟i͖̭̞̳̕t͈̜̠̲̗ţ͏̮͈͇̯̼̻͠l̴ͅͅe̬̗̖͇̘ ̭̦p̧̝̖͉̝͔̞̳͟ͅr̢̩̗͟o̯̹̭̹̫̯̘͞x̴̶̤͙̕y̸̟̘͎̲͈͎͍" (I'm coming for you, my little proxy) he cackled menacingly. At that moment, everything stopped, no pain, no anger, no sound. The only thing I could feel, crawling up my spine, and filling my while being, was immense fear.

I didn't have time to process what happened before my wrists no longer had any pressure on them, and all my eyes could see was a blank sky, filled with nothing but sadness and anger. Even the sound of the cracking and raging thunder ringing in my ears wasn't enough to shake me from my paralyzed state as I fell from my bedroom window, not even thinking about the impending impact of my back against the cold and unforgiving muddy ground.

Am I seriously going to die this way? COME ON, YOU'RE KIDDING RIGHT?! I couldn't tell whether or not I should cry, or get mad, but I didn't exactly have time for that, I did only fall from the second story.

I felt almost suspended in space, not moving as that cliche movie scene where the main characters life flashes before their eyes threatened to happen to me. I closed my eyes finally after what felt like forever until I felt a hard cushiony feeling press into my back.

"WHAT THE HELL?" A voice boomed from underneath me. Wait, what?

I felt around myself. I'm on the ground but, I'm not dead? I opened my eyes and instantly regretted it as a water droplet fell onto my eye and caused it to start stinging "owwww oh god that stings!" I cried, rubbing my eyelid to try and ease the pain.

My body shot up and I looked around, slowly turning my body. Hmm, nothing so far, seems good and-"oh my god! Jeff' oh, oh god, I'm gonna have a goddamn heart attack," I sighed and yelled, right into the pale white man known as Jeff's face "your uh, your face scared me a little just now" I said as I rested my head in my hands.

"Well nice to see you too sunshine. Why did you fall from your bedroom window exactly?" He asked curiously, reminding me of what just happened. I shot open my eyes and did a comical 180 degree head spin, looking at my window and feeling a wave of relief wash over me as all I could see were my curtains roughly blowing in the wind.

"I-I'm not so sure myself. One minute my dad is at the door, the next, some black demonic creature is saying he's coming after me and-" "zalgo... God IM SUCH AN IDIOT! I should've been there to protect you!" Jeff interrupted grabbing onto my shoulders and looking straight at me.

"*sigh* c'mon, we've got to go, he'll be back, and I'm not enough to stop him from hurting you" Jeff sighed, moving his legs from under me and standing up, grabbing onto my arm and hoisting me up along with him. "Wait! We should check on the others, I need to make sure my brother is ok!" I pleaded, pulling against his forceful grip and struggling to break free.

"Listen (Y/N), they are fine, the priority here is getting you to a safe location. Besides your brother is, well, let's just say he's fine for now, but we need to go, the others will catch up eventually, but we shouldn't stick around here" Jeff demanded and reassured me. I looked up at my window one last time and then looked back down at the ground. "Fine, but if my brother is dead, so are you" I threatened, earning a small smirk from Jeff.

"Alright, calm down buttercup, you aren't killing no one yet" he joked, letting go of my arm and holding up his hands in a sarcastically defeated manner. There was a part of me that wanted so badly to let my frustrations out on Jeff, but I held back that urge and instead let a small smile appear.

"Fine, lets go" I breathed out, picking up my bag and slinging it over my shoulder. "Now there's that smile, obviously not as great as mine, but still, second best maybe" Jeff teased, sliding a metal object into his pocket and turning to face the road, well I'm guessing anyways, after all, it was so misty I could barely make out the figure that stood still across from Jeff and I- hang on.

"J-Jeff's, what is that?" I queried, stepping behind Jeff and using him as a shield. Jeff didn't reply and instead just took out the object that he had only moments ago slid into his pocket. Oh man, pleaaaaaaase don't be that black monster thingy!

I tried to get a good look at the mist clad figure that stood ahead of us, noticing that it didn't have horns protruding from its head, and it's hands were, normal. I felt relieved but also still on guard, I mean, after what just happened who wouldn't be a little shook. "Haha, oh this is rich, he's thinks he can stop me? Really, he never was the brightest was he" Jeff laughed and questioned rhetorically, holding his wet and sticky hair back from his face and removing the hood of his jumper from his head.

"Come on David, just give up already, you've seen what that guy can do first hand, how can you stand there and try to stop me when you experienced his power. HOW CAN YOU STAND THERE AND TELL ME THAT SHE IS SAFE HERE?!" Jeff snapped, striding over to David, me following closely behind like a child would their mother.

"Calm down you maniac *huff* I know she isn't safe here, but I'm going with you guys. Heh, it's about time I say hello to the family again, don't you think?" David replied, his breathing slightly off. I walked close enough to see that his face was a little scratched up, however, nothing major.

"Che- you think I need your permission? You can go to hell" Jeff pushed, trying to cause a fight. "Gladly, while I'm there, would you like me to send a message to your family Jeffrey?" David retorted, moving dangerously close to Jeff, like two male bucks fighting for dominance. "OK! Time out, stop!" I stepped between the two moving my arms apart and shoving them both slightly.

"If we are all going to this 'safe place' together, than gee, I don't know, don't you think you could stop being children for one second and get along?" I scolded, glaring a both of these little babies and then lowering my arms. "Fine" they both said in unison, Jeff putting his knife back into his pocket and David stepping backwards slightly.

"Good, so.. Where are we going?" I asked, stepping away and looking back at the two. "Oho, I'm sure you will be welcomed with open arms, don't you worry sweetheart" Jeff joked holding out his arms as if wanting a hug. I laughed before stepping behind David and pushing him towards Jeff, making them bump awkwardly into each other, before they quickly separated and eyed me off, clearly annoyed.

"Well then, lead the way" I gestured, holding my hand out in front of me and bowing.

Time to meet 'the family' I guess.
