YAY! A NEW CHAPTER! Anyway, on with the story!

Claw's single green eye blinked, the other long gone, the deep pit where her right eye used to be covered by a black eyepatch. The feline eye followed the two, the werewolf and the sorceress, as they continued deeper into the forest. Claw tapped her staff against the tree branch she was sitting on. She brushed her short blonde-and-black hair out of her line of vision. She jumped out of the tree, landing perfectly on her feet on another branch of a different tree. Being part ocelot had its benefits.

Daphne felt like she was being watched. No matter how far she walked, she couldn't shake it. It was like whatever was watching them was following them...But it would have to have silent footsteps...

Claw jumped from tree to tree, following the duo as they walked deeper into the woods. Her good eye glowed slightly, which helped her see, but would also be a dead giveaway that she was watching them if they happened to look up. She silently leaped from the tree she was in, landing with a soft rustle of leaves as the branch she landed on shook slightly. Her eye widened, wondering if the werewolf had heard the noise.

Luna heard a soft rustle coming from above, possibly in a tree...

"Hey Daphne, did you hear that?"

"Hear what?"

"That sound...the rustle."

"No, but I have the feeling we're being watched."

"The sound came from over there,"Luna said, pointing directly at a single glowing, emerald eye which immediately snapped shut.

"What was that?" Daphne asked nervously.

"I-I don't know..."

"I have a name, you know," the eye opened back up. A girl, looking to be about 14 years old, dropped from the trees, landing perfectly on two feet. She had a black eyepatch covering up one of her eyes, and disheveled short, blonde-and-black hair. She wore a black t-shirt, camouflage cargo pants, an army jacket, and a belt which held several daggers and a diamond sword in leather sheaths.

"What is it, then?" asked Luna.

"My name... is Claw," the girl said. "Claw Celotte."

"I'll just call you CeCe," said Daphne. "Can you guide us through the forest?"

"Sure. Where do you want to go, sorceress?"

"How did you know..."

"About the sorcery? I can smell magic, it's all over you."

"So THATS why you smell like pepper, basil, cloves, and salty ocean water?!"

"Wow, you just described the smell of magic perfectly," said CeCe, shuddering at the mention of ocean water. She would never mention it, but she was terrified of drowning. And water. And squids, since they attacked her on sight.

"Yeah," Daphne said. "I didn't know that magic had a smell, though."

"Werewolves have a better sense of smell than werecats, but werecats have better sight and hearing. Thats why...um..."

"Luna"

"Luna, had been able to perfectly describe the scent of magic," CeCe said.

Daphne held out her hand, tiny swirls of blue and gold magic dancing in her palm, lighting the way. "Yeah. I guess so. My names Daphne, by the way." She said, smiling.

Ashlynn walked, cold, wet, and hungry, away from the cold, unforgiving lake. She had fallen into it, and the bag with all her food in it had sank down to the bottom.

The bag of food suddenly hit her in the back of the head. "Ow! That hurt!" She shouted, turning around to see blue eyes staring at her from underneath the water. Blonde-and-blue hair floated in the water around the two eyes.

Misty stared up at the human with her electric blue eyes, her blonde hair, blue streaks and all, floated around her head. She wondered if it had heard her. She watched it walk into the forest, then glance at the lake. Her eyes widened, wondering if it saw her. That was probably the worst possible thing she could've done. If it hadn't seen her before, the movement probably attracted its eyes. Misty facepalmed, which was also a bad move on her part. Why did squids have to be so... What was that word again? Oh, right. Derpy. Why did she have to be a squid? Why couldn't she be, like, a mooshroom hybrid instead?

The human walked towards the lake, probably having seen the squid girl. Misty sank further into the depths of the blue-green ocean. It had long, black hair which was streaked with gray, even though it appeared to be about fourteen years old. It's eyes were a stormy gray, and looked like someone had dropped ink in the center of a circle, then let it spread out. the eyes seemed to get lighter as the neutral color scheme spread towards the white of its eyes, fading from black to dark gray to light grey to white. Interesting.

Then it did something Misty would never have expected.

"Hi," it said. "I'm Ashlynn."

Misty rose up slightly. "H-hi," she said. "I-I'm M-m-misty..."

"Hi Misty. You can come out, I'm friendly," said Ashlynn.

"H-how c-can I b-b-be s-so sure?"

Cupa destroyed the dirt block she was standing on and fell to the forest floorwith a soft thump. Emma soared in downward circles until she landed safely on the ground, and Herobrine simply floated downwards, leather boots landing on the grass softly. She smiled, the cultists were finally gone. The battle, short and fierce as it was, was over. She got back in her hammock of leaves and vines, sighing in relief.

"What're you doing?" asked Emma.

"I didn't get any sleep last night," she said, shrugging as her eyes closed. Sleep finally dragged her into its depths.

Emma didn't get the concept of sleep. She didn't need it, so why did everybody else? Maybe it was because she was a daughter of an enderdragon, a boss mob, but she doubted it. Emma needed to sleep for about eight hours every month or so, but why did everybody else need it every night? It was rather boring having nothing to do but fly around while everybody else was asleep. She flew off, taking to the sky, soaring above the clouds.

Then, she realized she hadn't slept in a month. She hadn't realized she was tired. Emma's eyes widened as she plummeted to the ground, too exhausted to move her wings or even cry for help.

Dun-dun-dun! Cliffhanger! Sort of... I'll just end the chapter here, since it's, like, 1,101 words long or so, and just leave you mini Herobrines hanging here while I go write the next chapter of Haunted by Herobrine.
