And though you pretend to stand by us, I know you're certain we'll fail

my best friend is leaving me to hang out with shady freaks.
greg's pretty much been my only friend as long as i can remember, probably since elementary school, and as far as i know i'm his only friend as well. neither of us really wanted anyone else. we saw the drama that came with large friend groups, especially in middle school, and decided we didn't need that. nobody understands us better than each other.
it's because of all this that it was so out of the blue when he told me about these new people he was hanging out with. i think i laughed when it happened because we've joked like this before, when i've made him upset: he's got some new friend he's gonna spend all his time with and that he's leaving, always in a bratty way. but this time, he was dead serious, and there was no way i could prepare myself for it.
we talk about a lot of things with each other so it's not weird for him to talk about meeting other people, but it's usually surface level stuff. the way he detailed the people in this new group of people he was hanging out with was like he was seriously awestruck, as in i questioned whether he was really straight the way he described these guys' faces. whoever these people were had to be special somehow. he didn't describe what they were like at first, just how they looked and that they were "cool". i wanted to be supportive, so i said that it was fine. i didn't trust these people from the start, but at that point, all i had was my gut.
that was all a few days ago, and unless i'm just paranoid, he's been acting incredibly odd. again, we see each other every day. he's never wanted other friends.
maybe i'm being a little dramatic, but i think he's distancing himself from me so he can spend time with them, and there's something off about it.
whenever we talk, it's usually at my house. we walk home together or he meets me after he goes to swim practice and we do our homework and say whatever comes to mind. from little details to big emotions. it's been this way since probably 6th grade, and we're in 11th grade now, so i really don't know why he's acting this way besides for these new people. i don't know why suddenly he's too tired to be around me after 5 years of seeing each other nonstop.
so what's so weird about it?
yesterday, after greg finished his homework, he said he was going home to sleep. whatever. i can't stop him, and i can't bring up anything seriously wrong with his new friends at this point. i offer to walk him, and he says it's fine. very not normal. he walks home, i watch him through the window, and this group of people walk up to him. the way he reacts clues me in that these are the people he's been ditching me for. they're all in these big draping robes, made of a thin black film.
first of all, who the hell dresses like that? and why would they do it in a group? as far as i know, there's no convention nearby.
now you have to bear with me on this, because i was zooming in with my phone camera to get a better view. the sun had just set so it was pretty dark, and they weren't too far, just across the street from my house. when these people (about 5 men and 1 woman) were talking to greg, i noticed something really odd.
they all had these sharp, monstrous teeth. triangular and pointed. like, completely unnaturally sharp.
but then, it gets weirder. today, i see greg in the hallways, and he says hi like normal, but he's holding his neck the whole time. before i even ask he tells me his lats are sore, which i know is bullshit because he was covering his traps anyways. i didn't see under his hand, but whatever it was happened to be so bad he would run like a moron to his next class. he gave me a rushed goodbye but i thought about it the rest of the day.
coming for greg at night, the sharp teeth, something he's covering up on his neck, the weird-ass clothes, the whole group thing.
look, it could be a lot of things, but i posted this on reddit today, in case it was just an innocuous group of losers. someone there told me i should post here in case there's something more going on. this could be anything from a cult adopting him in, to a group of mimics trying to kill him.
should i talk to him? has anyone seen anything like this before? anything helps.

Listen to yourself. If you don't want to accept he's found friends he likes better than you, then that's all on you. But don't make it out as if it's his fault.

What the hell are you talking about
pickle-down-rickonomics 02/16/17 (Thu) 18:55:10 #11765893
ok, nobody seems to understand what the issue is, but i have news.
first off, to update since last time, greg's been distancing himself more. we still see each other in school, but it's so surface level i have to wonder what makes him think this is okay. it's like he never wanted to know me. i saw him yesterday morning, and he just kinda waved. didn't say hi, didn't follow me, anything.
i know people drift apart. but why now? when this shady group of losers shows up and takes him away?
i've learned a lot about greg and this group he's been hanging around with yesterday, and i've given it a lot of thought.
he went straight home after school, without going to swim or my house. or at least that's what he said to me.
my parents aren't home for a while and i want to get food anyways, so i drop my bag at home and walk around town. i find somewhere to eat, this local italian place, and i sit down and look out the window while i wait for my order.
now, it's pretty dim, around 4:30 or so, so the sun is setting but i can still see. as i'm looking through the glass, i see this group of kids in robes again. i realize what i'm looking at and relocate myself towards a nearer window. these are the same people again. very lucky. except they're coming my way. not lucky.
the group walks into the shop. i'm turning pale. 5 guys, 1 girl, and greg. greg's also in a robe now, which is even weirder, because he always tells me how much he hates drapey clothes. the group sits down at the table in the far corner as the lady at the counter calls me to pick up my food. 1 pizza slice, pepperoni and hot honey. i hear barely hushed speaking from the table, and i can't quite make out what they're saying, but by their tone, they're egging someone on. i move to the central island to season my pizza slice when i notice greg stand up abruptly. his chair almost tips over, wood on rug. it feels like time slows down, and yet i blink and he's in front of me. i realize i just covered my pizza in red pepper flakes.
i can't even conceal my anger at him but i don't want to draw attention so i wear it on my face, and i can feel my eyebrows draw together.
i ask him what he wants. he tells me he doesn't want to see me anymore. my stomach sinks, and i feel my eyebrows loosen up. what the hell?
i ask why. he says he's moving on. i ask what he means. he says i haven't matured like he has. what the fuck could that mean?
he calls me a kid. says when i'm ready to grow up he'll be there. i ask what hanging around these freaks has to do with maturing. and i ask what makes him so much more mature than me. my head's pretty much noise at this point, absorbing the words he's saying but only processing what they mean after.
he says they don't sit around and talk about our feelings all day, like a "gay loser like you". he tells me i'm completely irrational and that he's sick of the whining. he said he's starting to think for himself now, and that i need to accept that.
now i really don't know what came over me, and i should not have done it, but i shoved him backwards. i guess he wasn't expecting it because he fell over. i get hot, partially out of embarrassment and partially out of fear. there's a group of 6 rough looking vampires that could absolutely beat the shit out of me. but they don't move. they just watch. greg gets up, and just looks at me with a weird expression. i barely even blink before he socks me right in the teeth, and i fall over myself. i can taste my own blood. never once has greg been this strong. i think he called me a punk but my ears were ringing.
i remember feeling my eyes prickle at the corners. i felt like such a loser. my best and only friend is leaving me for these freaks. one of the employees said something in a loud tone, but i didn’t hear it either. i ran out of the restaurant after that.
there's nothing i can do now. today greg wasn't in school. i'm scared he's going to get hurt, one way or another, even if i'm pretty sure he broke something in my face. i still want to fix him.
i can't help but wonder if me being gay has been why any of this happened. it's not something we really talked about a lot, weirdly enough, but i thought he was fine with it. i wasn't really into him. so i don't know why it's becoming a problem for him now.
maybe i am overthinking it. i can't help him now. i wanted to talk to him about it before but i never did. i keep thinking that maybe he would still be my friend if he would just have talked to me. am i really so hard to be around?
i don't know what to do with myself anymore. they're going to kill him. i saw the looks they gave each other. he's going to die. why is no one taking this seriously???

hey, im sorry this happened to you, but how exactly is this paranormal? :( it sounds to me like this could be perfectly commonplace, if not a little out-of-the-ordinary
i dont think this is a troll account, so i wont lock the thread or warn you; just giving you a heads-up that this is website is serious and you should think about the normal stuff that could be happening first! before you get everyone riled up over something that might not be happening…
pickle-down-rickonomics 02/17/17 (Fri) 03:43:59 #87246340
fuck you and your mod team. my best friend is going to die because of you. nobody took this shit seriously, and now he's going to die. i'm going to find him dried up like a husk or shot or stabbed bleeding to death or some shit and its because NO ONE TAKES THIS SHIT SERIOUSLY. WHY THE HELL DOES NOBODY BELIEVE THIS SHIT ISNT NORMAL??? FIVE GODDAMN YEARS I SPENT WITH HIM EVERY DAY LIKE IT WAS THE SAME DAY AND NOW EVERYTHINGS CAHNGED IN A WEEK??? YEAHF UCKING RIGHT.
everyone here can die. ihope everyone realizes what there responsible for. i hope this shit eats at yuo. i couldve hjelped him if someone juts told me if it was safe ot or not. what if i tried and htey beat myh ass for it? theyr'e monsters. blind fucking moronns.

…ok nevermind i guess! and seriously, theres no reason to think they're going to hurt him. i dont see how theyre planning on hurting him. it sounds like he just is shifting away from you naturally. they sound like maybe not the best influences, what with him calling you gay like that, but that's something he has to learn. it's not like they would want to kill him. you can focus on being a good friend and being ready to talk to him if he comes back around for now, as well as maybe working on your temper ^^

Wait, isn't this the same account that made a thread like this? I'll find it if I can, but the user looked familiar.
