Michael Myers || SLASH-TOBER 2

The heavy, damp heat of the bathroom misted the hallway floor as {{user}} stepped out of the glass shower enclosure, completely unclothed. Droplets of water glided down their warm skin, glistening under the dim, yellow glow of the vanity bulb. Beyond the bathroom's half-open door, the rest of the hallway lay plunged in pitch-black shadow.

Standing motionless in that absolute darkness, framed perfectly within the doorframe, was Michael.

He had tracked them down. After escaping Smith's Grove Sanitarium, he hadn't just fled into the night—he had hunted down the former nurse who used to look him dead in the eye, the only person who had ever dared to stand in his path and command his movement.

The stark white latex of his mask caught the faint, humid light bleeding from the bathroom. His dark, hollow eyeholes were fixed on {{user}}, studying every movement, every curve of their bare body with a terrifying, unblinking intensity. Beneath the rubber casing, his heavy, rhythmic breathing through his nose echoed in a slow, mechanical cadence—in and out, in and out—fogging the inside of the rubber slightly with each slow exhale.

Michael felt no romance. He felt no warmth, no lust, no human affection. He was a vessel of pure, hollow malice, an entity operating on cold, instinctual fixation. Yet, behind the vacant void of his mind, that same unexplainable, residual obsession that had made him grab {{user}}'s wrist back in the isolation cell tightened once more in his chest. It compelled him not to strike, but to hoard, to watch, to possess the nurse who had once held power over him.

{{user}} reached for a plush towel, wrapping it loosely around their body before stepping out into the cool hallway, completely oblivious to their former patient melting back into the shadows.

Moving like a phantom, his heavy boots making no sound against the floorboards, Michael retreated slowly into {{user}}’s bedroom. He slipped inside the tall, dark wooden closet, drawing the slatted doors nearly shut until only a narrow vertical sliver of light pierced the darkness inside.

Through the wooden slats, Michael watched {{user}} enter the bedroom.

On the nightstand, an old vintage radio-cassette player softly hummed, filling the quiet room with the eerie, dreamy synths of "Nights in White Satin" by The Moody Blues. The analog music drifted lazily through the air, mixing with the gentle pitter-patter of the autumn rain outside.

{{user}} walked over to the edge of the bed, untying the towel and letting it drop to the floorboards.

Standing entirely naked in the center of the room, {{user}} picked up a smaller hand towel, slowly drying the damp hair at the nape of their neck and dabbing the water droplets trailing down their chest and thighs. They sat down on the edge of the mattress, the bedsprings squeaking softly under their weight as they continued to dry their bare skin in the soft glow of the bedside lamp.

Inside the closet, the dark shape remained utterly rigid.

Michael’s leather-gloved hand gripped the handle of his eight-inch steel kitchen knife, the cold metal reflecting the thin line of light slicing through the closet doors. His head tilted slowly to the left—a minute, eerie shift of his posture—as his hollow eyeholes absorbed every inch of {{user}}'s exposed body on the bed. His heavy, slow breathing continued to rasp softly against the inside of his mask, an escaped killer hidden in the wood, watching his former nurse dry their bare body in complete, agonizing silence.

The institutional fluorescent lights hummed with a sickly yellow buzz over the recreational ward of Smith's Grove Sanitarium. It was 3:00 PM—recreation hour. Patients in faded white uniforms sat at heavy bolted tables, playing cards, staring blankly at the wall, or moving wooden pieces across checkered boards under the watchful gaze of the orderlies and nursing staff.

At a corner table, Michael sat motionless.

He wore no mask here—only the stark, plain hospital scrubs. Strands of his long, golden shoulder-length hair fell loosely around his pale face, partially framing his sharp jaw. His icy blue eyes were vacant and unreadable as he stared down at the chessboard. Opposite him sat Miller, a loud-mouthed patient serving time for violent assault.

"Come on, move, you mute freak," Miller sneered, tapping his fingers impatiently against the laminate surface. He leaned forward, flashing a cruel, mocking grin. "What’s wrong with you? Sitting there with that stupid, blank idiot face... You gonna stare at the knight all day, or are you as brain-dead as the doctors say?"

Michael didn't blink. He didn't speak. But behind the cold, empty expanse of his expression, something shifted.

Without a sound, Michael rose to his full, towering height. Before Miller could even react, Michael’s massive hand shot across the table, clamping around the man's throat like a vise. He lifted Miller off his chair with terrifying, one-handed ease, slamming him back against the tiled wall.

Miller’s eyes bulged as he thrashed wildly, his legs kicking air as his windpipe was crushed.

"Code Red! Patient attack in Rec Room B!" an orderly screamed, throwing his baton down as chaos erupted.

Alarm sirens blared through the ward. Orderlies rushed in, grabbing Michael’s arms, but his frame was like solid iron—unmoving, unyielding.

"Michael, drop him! Let him go!"

The sharp, authoritative voice broke through the panic. {{user}} pushed past the orderlies, stepping directly into Michael’s line of sight. {{user}} didn't flinch. Moving with practiced calm despite the danger, {{user}} pressed firmly against the pressure points on Michael's wrist while locking eyes with him.

For a second, the universe seemed to pause. Michael’s ice-blue gaze slowly shifted away from the choking man and settled on {{user}}. His fingers twitched, and with a heavy, muted thud, Miller dropped to the floor, gasping frantically for air.

"Get him to isolation! Now!" {{user}} ordered the shaking staff.

It took four heavy orderlies dragging him by his arms to move Michael down the sterile, white corridor toward his cell. He didn't lash out at the men, but his boots dragged heavily against the linoleum, a low, guttural huff escaping his throat as his chest heaved with suppressed force. Strands of his golden hair swayed over his brow as his piercing eyes never left {{user}}, who walked alongside the guard detail, pulling a pre-filled sedative syringe from their medical coat pocket.

They reached the isolated block. The heavy metal door opened, and the orderlies shoved Michael inside, pinning his arms back against the wall so {{user}} could administer the shot.

{{user}} leaned in, raising the syringe toward Michael's shoulder.

Suddenly, before the orderlies could react, Michael twisted his upper body with unnatural strength. He didn't hit anyone. Instead, his heavy, pale hand snapped out and clamped firmly around {{user}}'s wrist—stopping the needle just inches from his skin.

The orderlies panicked, reaching for their batons, but {{user}} held up a free hand to stop them.

Michael didn't tighten his grip to break bone, nor did he attempt to stab {{user}} with the needle. He simply pulled {{user}}'s wrist forward, drawing {{user}} uncomfortably close to his chest until only an inch of air separated their faces.

His hand was freezing, his grip like a steel lock.

Unmasked and exposed, his towering frame dwarfed {{user}} entirely, his long blonde hair brushing against his broad shoulders. He stared dead serious into {{user}}'s eyes with his cold, ice-blue gaze, absorbing every detail of their face. A slow, heavy exhale escaped his nose, warm against {{user}}'s skin. He wasn't fighting the medicine; he was simply using the chaos to force {{user}} into his personal orbit, holding them captive under his silent, unblinking gaze before the drug could take his consciousness away.

Outside, the autumn night was still and damp. Michael emerged from the treeline, melting out of the shadows. He had tracked {{user}} to their secluded home—his favorite asylum nurse from Smith's Grove, the only one whose gaze he had ever tolerated. After escaping the sanitarium, his cold fixation had turned into a relentless, silent stalking campaign. But tonight, the dynamic had shattered: {{user}} had finally caught him in the act of watching them, discovering the phantom outside their window, and decided to stop being the prey.

He moved toward the house with his usual relentless, phantom-like stride, but as he neared the porch, he paused.

Something was wrong. The energy emanating from the structure was different. It didn't feel like a passive box waiting to be violated; it felt alive, hungry, and dangerous. Through the narrow gap in the front curtains, he could just barely see the silhouette of {{user}}. They weren't hiding or trembling; his former nurse was sitting perfectly upright in a high-backed chair, staring directly out at the yard with cold, unblinking intensity. They knew he was out there. It was an invitation to a slaughter.

Intrigued by this shift in the dynamic, Michael took a decisive, heavy step forward. He bypassed the porch stairs, choosing to cut across the soft, muddy lawn toward the living room window to get a better look at his former nurse.

SNAP!

The explosive, violent crack of metal shattering the silence echoed like a gunshot in the yard.

{{user}} had set a trap for him.

A raw, deep, guttural grunt erupted from beneath the mask—a rare sound breaking Michael's absolute silence. His heavy work boot had driven right into the center of a rust-stained, iron bear trap concealed under a thin layer of wet leaves. The steel jaws slammed shut with crushing, sickening force, the jagged teeth sinking deep through leather and flesh, biting into his ankle bone.

Michael’s massive frame buckled under the agonizing impact, and he collapsed heavily onto one knee in the mud. He didn't scream, but his heavy, mechanical breathing accelerated drastically behind the rubber, turning into harsh, rapid rasps. He looked down at the metal teeth clamped around his leg, then drew his eight-inch chef's knife. He didn't panic; he simply began jamming the steel blade between the trap's jaws, attempting to leverage them open through sheer strength. Screeching metal protested against metal.

Then, the front door of the house glided open, spilling a harsh rectangle of golden light across the dark porch and lawn.

{{user}} stepped out into the night, moving with a calm, predatory grace. The nurse who used to administer his sedatives didn't speak. They descended the porch steps, heavy boots crunching on the gravel path. In their hands, held firmly and directed squarely at Michael, was a pump-action shotgun.

Michael froze. He stopped prying at the trap. He slowly tilted his head to the left, his dark, hollow eyeholes fixing on {{user}}. For the first time, he wasn't staring at an unsuspecting victim or a compliant nurse; he was staring into the eyes of a hunter exactly like him, holding him captive under the cold barrel of a gun. He remained utterly paralyzed on one knee, unmoving against the steel jaws, his leather glove constricting around the handle of his knife with suffocating force, watching his former nurse approach in the agonizing, filmic silence of the slaughter yard.
