Sorry Guys! I feel so stupid now... I posted the same chapter twice... Thanks to GraceKelly I can fix that :D
I was walking through a forest, diamond sword at my side, it seemed to be in the late afternoon, about to get dark. I hear a moan of an early zombie then the sickening sound of a sword passing through it. "Ha! First one for the night!" I hear a familiar voice but I can not place the name. I pull up my hood and continue walking. I hear the guy behind me and next thing I know, I am pinned against the tree behind me. I struggle to move his arm from my neck. "Oh... Heh. Sorry.. I thought you were a zombie or something... They seem to be few tonight."He lets me go and I nod, still trying to place the name to the familiar face. "I don't think we have met. My name's"
I come to right before he says his name. 'Shit... Now a cliffhanger...' I think. I look around and see a circle of blackened rock. I notice everyone against a wall. "What the hell just happened? I tried to move you then this circle of fire surrounds you and I barely made it out!" Sparklez says as he stares at me. I do not answer him as I get up and walk over to my spot and sit down again. "The demon afraid to talk? I thought you were not afraid of anything?" I hear the annoying voice of Duby call at me. I turn around to face the wall. "So is the demon going to talk?" He calls again. 'Stop calling me a demon!' I yell at them. "We'll you certainly act like a demon." He says, trying to piss me off. "Duby, don't piss her off. You don't know what she will do to you." I smile, getting an idea from TBone. I focus on his hand and see him wince in pain as a black starts, very slowly, crawling up his arm. "The wither effect?" Duby asks through gritted teeth. 'Yep, and it is going slower and going to hurt much much more.' I say with a grin on my face. "But- but only demons know how to do the wither effect," he says. I growl, turning on TBone. "What? What have I done?" He asks with a scared look on his face. 'Haha nothing. But do I need a reason?" I say as the black starts to crawls up his own arm.
'So any questions?' I ask as a rhetorical question. "Yeah. Why do you act like a demon?" Sparklez asks, looking directly at me. "Have you not lost enough Sparklez? You seem to not like staying in one cave, knowing you have no way out. You seem to be slipping more than everyone else.' I taunt him. "Captain, don't listen to her. I listened and ended up here!" Nick says, trying to cheer him up. "See where it ended me up at?" He adds, seeing that his friend's mood has not changed. Captain smiled and said, "Nick, that's just you and your personality." I can see a glint of humor in his eyes. Nick pouts, "well..." He answers, moving to the defensive side. Captain laughs and Nick tries to keep pouting but soon starts smiling. "Uhh... Guys... Any help here?" Duby asks through gritted teeth. The wither is now to his elbow, turning his skin a sickly black. I sigh and focus on it stopping on both of them before they die from the pain or some other way. 'Happy now?' I ask. "Yeah.." TBone answers while rubbing his arm.
Hyyxos stands up, "you stopped it.. You stopped it before they could die..." She says to me, thought in her eyes. I turn from her and face the wall. 'Yes... I know..' I answer. "So why didn't you just let them die? I know you hate Duby.." I do not answer. "So... You can't kill them?" She pushes at me, looking for an answer. 'I... I can... If I wanted to...' I answer, not knowing if I could in this state. "Okay, but I know that you want to destroy Duby, why not now?" She goes to far. "Hey! I don't want to die!" Duby yells at Hyyxos. "I still want to know why you won't kill him? Or can you?" She pushes me even farther. 'Shit... Duby is needed... But I know who is not..' I think silently to myself. I turn to look Nick in the eyes and say 'Duby is needed.. But Nick is not..' I focus on Nick's mind and he starts screaming. "Stop! Please!" He yells while grabbing at his hair. "NICK! NO!" Sparklez yells and starts running at me. Nick drops to the floor and Sparklez turns around at the sound of Nick's gear hitting the stone floor. "Nick... H-how will I explain to Mark? We had so much planned! Now he is just... Gone..." Sparklez mourns. "Just tell Mark who it was... I'm sure he will understand." Hyyxos says, putting her arm around him. I smile. 'Hahaha. See now?' I say turning towards Hyyxos. "No.. You did that to prove a point, not of wanting," she answers. I teleport Nick away. I know.. I know that under that pink armor, there was a chest, rising and falling from breathing. A heart still beating.. I knew Nick was not dead, I only put him in a state of sleep that requires either me, Herobrine, or someone that I will not say.. To get them awake.
