Slender: The Arrival
Lauren starts to find Kate in The Arrival by going to her house. Upon reaching Kate's house, Lauren notices Kate is missing and finds shelter inside. She investigates the inside of the house, but upon going to Kate's room, it is locked. She then sees Slender Man for the first time, and quickly shrugs it off.

Upon finding a flashlight, she finds the key to Kate's room. She opens the door to see that the room is filled with notes about Slender Man and she sees that a window was broken. She then hears screaming in the woods, and quickly goes downstairs to the backyard to investigate.

Upon arriving to the woods, she finds herself in Oakside Park, and engaged in the same thing Kate experienced a few years back; grabbing the eight pages. Upon finding all the pages, she is caught by Slender Man and teleported to various locations. She then wakes up near a mining facility called Kullman Mining Co.

When she investigates the shafts, she has to find six generators in order to operate the lift. Upon activating the first, the doors in the shaft open and she is chased by a brainwashed Kate, while also being harassed by Slender Man along the way. Lauren activates all of the generators and races to the lift.

After leaving the lift, she finds herself near a cliff. She travels up the mountainous terrain to find where the radio tower is. She races toward the tower, only to be shocked to see that the forest was burning. She raced towards the tower, with a very aggressive Slender Man on her trail.

She manages to get to the tower in time, unfortunately her flashlight dies out. She runs through narrow hallways only to find a dead end. She sees that there is a burnt man, possibly CR, and finds a video recording.

After listening to the recording, Charlie (now a decaying proxy) knocks Lauren out. Lauren then awakens in the basement of Charlie's burnt house. Charlie guards the staircase; watching Lauren's every move. After collecting two notes, Charlie disappears and the sounds of Kate crying is heard, Lauren makes her way up the stairs to come face to face with Kate, unproxified, unmasked, and unhooded. Lauren starts moving towards her to comfort her, only for Kate to turn back into the Chaser and attacks Lauren. By the end of the conflict, someone's legs are being dragged upon the floor, most likely a deceased or unconscious Lauren.
