Into The Game ~Part 4~ ZexyZek?
I decided, thanks to LovingTogetic, that in this chapter, as you can probably guess by the title, that I will be adding a new character. I have my own ideas for him but if you guys think he should be seen in a different way then let me know! x (Also I will be switching points of view in this chapter)
Jordan
Tiana had left a few minutes ago and I was starting to get anxious. She had run out in only a hoodie and didn't tell me why she was going. I sat up once again and began getting dressed; I was going to have to go find her.
*sigh*
Once I was dressed I grabbed a sword and walked out the house, or should I say shack and headed to the edge of the forest. I didn't think she would head into the forest so I just headed down the hill, climbing over each square block wasn't easy. While I was walking I began to think about how we could possibly get her, how long we would be here for and if we could ever escape…
Zek
I saw a girl in front of me. She was definitely older, but she was pretty. She was looking at the ground which meant that her blond hair kept falling over her blue eyes. I stood gawking for a while then I heard a bow in the distance. I looked over to her and saw she was falling asleep; well she was until an arrow whizzed past her face. I panicked and ran out to her.
"Hey! Get up!" I cried and pulled her up by the arm.
"Wait, what?" She stared at me in amazement but continued to be pulled along. We got to the edge of the forest and I gasped for breath. "Hang on a minute" she said so loud she may as well have shouted, "You're like…fourteen?" she mumbled.
"I'm fifteen actually," I retorted but then she was off again.
"Well fourteen, fifteen! I really don't see the big difference… Anyway how did you get here? Were you watching me! Who tried to take my head off with an arrow? Where are we? I really need to get back to Jordan…I mean the shack. Will you answer me instead of staring at me!" she screamed.
"Well if you just shut up for a minute maybe I could" I shouted, which left her staring at me mumbling. "Okay, I don't know how I got here. Yes I was sort of watching you," The girl pulled a face and raised an eyebrow, "I don't know who tried to hit you though it was probably a skeleton. We are on the edge of the forest, duh? Also if you need to get back to the shack then I suggest walking that-a-way considering that's where you came from," The girl looked the way I was pointing and trudged away. "Hey," I called "Wait up!" I ran after the girl till I was beside her. "I'm John, but you can call me Zek," I looked at the girl trying to introduce myself and she stopped walking.
"Okay, let's get the formalities over with," she said obviously tired and ready to sleep "I'm Tiana, you're Zek, you stopped me getting hit by an arrow and I'm going home," She said stubbornly and walked away. I followed her and within a few minutes I saw a small hut in the distance.
"Oh! Look Tiana! A hut!" I cried
"It's not a hut it's a shack and I would like to get to it as soon as possible, thank you very much," she stated
We got to the door and she flung it open. She seems like a grumpy person, at least when she is tired. Inside was a single bed, a door leading somewhere else, a crafting table, two furnaces and lots of chests. Even so, there was something wrong. Tiana was panicking and she ran around the shack looking for something, or someone. Tiana sat down, looking defeated a single tear ran down her face and she touched it and looked at it confused as if she hadn't realised she was crying.
"Tiana?" I mumbled and walk over to her and sat beside her. "What is it? Who are you looking for?"
Tiana looked at me with watery blue eyes. "I told Jordan I would come back, he must have gone looking for me…we need to go find him!" she jumped up and pulled me out the door.
Tiana
A fire burned in my heart as me and Zek left the shack. Where had Jordan gone? Why did I leave! I should have stayed! I ran ahead of Zek calling Jordan. Praying he would hear me. A skeleton followed by a zombie walked past but I was still shouting and if it wasn't for Zek covering my mouth they would have seen me. I turned to Zek after they passed. "Thank you," I whispered.
"You'll be no use to Jordan if you're dead…" he drifted off and looked into the distance. "Uhm…Tiana?" he said sorrowfully.
"What? What is it?" I asked feeling confused and turned to see where he was pointing. A figure was limping towards us not far away. My heart lurched when I saw his face. Blood covered and with multiple arrow wounds Jordan stood about two metres away. I didn't hold back the tear then; they fell down my face and dripped to the ground. "Jordan!" I ran towards him and cupped his face in my hands. I pressed my forehead to his and sniffed.
"Tiana…" Zek warned. "Jordan is losing a lot of blood…"
"Tiana, I can't stand much longer," Jordan whispered and fell to his knees.
"Jordan!" Zek and I cried together. The fire in my heart died when Jordan hit the ground. Tears wouldn't stop and I couldn't breathe. Zek helped me carry him to the shack on our shoulders and we placed him the bed. We couldn't remove the arrows or he would lose too much blood. "Potions," I said blankly and Zek looked up at me confused.
"What?" he asked
"We need potions, health and strength…" I sniffed "Where can we get them?"
"Well without going to the Nether…" Zek paused.
"Tell me! Jordan's dying!" My voice broke when I said it.
"There is a village past the forest and on top of the mountain, I was brought up there and there is a brewing station for people to use," Zek finished and I stared open mouthed.
"When did you get here Zek?" I mumbled
"Ten years ago," he replied so quietly I had to strain my ears to hear him.
"Oh god Zek…" I looked him; shocked.
"I'll tell you when you come back but you need to leave now to get the potions for Jordan! I'll watch him." Zek said sternly.
I turned to Jordan and kissed him gently on his head and whispered into his ear "I will be back, I promise," I picked up some apples, steak, a sword, a bow and some arrows. Zek turned to me. "Take care of him please," I begged before I left.
"Don't worry Tiana, I will keep him safe. I promise," I heard Zek say as I closed the door.
Jordan was dying…I left him in the care of someone I had met hours ago…I was on a dangerous mission to save him…Finally life was exciting, but not the exciting I had wanted all my life…
Hey guys, quite intense end if you ask me. This chapter was a little longer but I may make this the usual length per chapter. What did you think? I have so many plans for the next few chapters and guess what? If you guys want to tell me some of your own oc (original characters) then feel free and I will try adding them into Tiana's Journey. I'm already starting chapter 5 so they will most likely be in chapter 6 and so on. Thanks so much for reading and all your support. x
