Here's more WA!

Deadlox: The last one was a bit…scary…

Me: How?

Deadlox: I tore up cops and I looked like a freaking psycho.

Me: You are. LOL. Anyways, enjoy! R&R!

Sky's POV

I woke up to the blinding sun. I sat up and saw a really tired Deadlox sitting a couple blocks away from us. I sat up and groaned. I did not feel well at all.

"You okay?" Deadlox asked. I nodded and put my hand on my stomach. "Stomachache?" I nodded again. He came over and handed me food.

"Try to eat," he said. I slowly ate the steak. I felt a little better but not really. I felt nauseous but not enough to throw up. He laid me back down on to his lap.

"Rest a bit more until you feel better."

"Did you sleep at all last night?"

He snickered. "Does it look like I did?"

"No…"

"Then I didn't. Now hush and go to sleep." I closed my eyes and fell asleep in my best friend's lap.

Deadlox's POV

I watched as Sky slept peacefully in my lap. Poor guy. He's going to make himself sick with worry and stress. I sighed tiredly. NO sleep whatsoever. I was going to make myself sick with exhaustion.

A few moments later, Bajan woke up. He looked at me and Sky.

"What's wrong with him?" he mouthed.

"Doesn't feel well. Stomachache," I mouthed back. He nodded. I tossed him a steak and he ate it.

"Thanks," he said.

"Welcome."

"Did you sleep last night?"

"Nope."

"Dude, sleep. I'll take watch."

"Thanks." I lay down. I lay on my back and sideways so Sky's head was still on my lap. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

Bajan's POV

An hour after Deadlox went to sleep, Sky woke up again.

"Feel better?" I asked. Sky sat up, his hand on his stomach.

"Deadlox told you?" I nodded. "Not really."

We sat for a little while. Deadlox turned onto his side while he was sleeping. His sudden movement startled us for a moment. That didn't end it though. Deadlox started moving uncomfortably in his sleep.

"Does he normally sleep like that?" I asked Sky.

"No…not at all. It's like he's dead when he's asleep. I don't even know he's there half the time."

We watched as he started squirming.

"I think we should wake him up," I said.

"No freaking duh."

Sky grabbed Deadlox's shoulder and shook him. Deadlox shot up straight. Sky and I were startled by his reaction. He was shaking and sweating. When I say he was shaking, I mean he was trembling.

"Deadlox? You okay?" I asked. He shook his head.

"Do you guys hate me?"

"No!" I yelled.

"Why would you think that?!" Sky yelled. The others didn't wake up.

"Thank Notch. I had a nightmare about that just now."

"What happened?" Sky asked.

"Well…you guys hated me for being a wolf so you guys cornered me in my wolf form and killed me with silver bullets."

"Damn it Deadlox. We would never do that!" Sky said. Deadlox looked at him then me for clarification. I nodded. He sighed and looked at his lap. He closed his eyes and swayed dangerously.

"It's so freaking hot. I'm about to go back into a forest biome. Why are we doing this again?"

"To make sure you get the blood you need," I said handing him a water bottle. He drank a little bit and gave it back. I looked at it. He probably drank 3 small sips.

"Dude, drink some more," I said handing back the water. He shook his head.

"It'll only make me want more." I understood and put it away. Sky still had his hand over his stomach.

"You sure you're okay?" I asked. Deadlox looked over at Sky.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure a stomachache won't kill me."

"Who has a stomachache?" We looked over Jerome had just woken up.

"Me," Sky said. He looked over and yawned.

"You okay?"

"Yeah."

TrueMU woke up. "What'd I miss?"

"Sky has a stomachache, Deadlox had a really bad nightmare, and these two are about to get sick from stress," I explained. Sky and Deadlox looked at me.

"Sick from stress?" Sky asked.

"Shut up cuz you know it's true."

He raised his hands in defense then put one of his hands back on his stomach. I looked at Deadlox who was lying back down in the sand.

"You've only gotten an hour of sleep. Try to get a little more. If you have another nightmare, we'll wake you up," I said. He nodded and closed his eyes.

We talked and ate for a little while as Deadlox slept. Sure enough, he had another nightmare. I shook him awake and he merely opened his eyes. He sat up.

"Damn it. Can't even sleep anymore."

We looked at him sympathetically.

"I think we should head into the forest biome where it's much cooler," Sky suggested. We all agreed and started walking to the nearby forest biome. Deadlox was obviously very tired. I couldn't help but feel really bad for him.

We finally reached the forest biome and a blast of cool air greeted us. We sighed in relief. That felt so good. We kept walking and Deadlox got even worse. He's stressing, not getting enough sleep, has more than one thing living in him, he lost his childhood friends, his mom appeared and tricked him; and he's worried about losing us as friends. The poor guy has a lot on his mind.

I'm sure I wasn't the only one who noticed. We kept giving him looks at the corner of our eyes. Either he didn't notice or he didn't care. He was probably way too out of it. That's actually pretty bad. He notices everything now…

A huge bear came out of the forest. We all jumped back. Deadlox was a little slower than normal. I looked at Jerome and he shrugged. He didn't see or hear it. Deadlox obviously didn't. The bear attacked. We tried hard to stop it but we knew Deadlox was the only one who could calm it down but in the condition he was in, he would most likely be killed.

The battle wasn't going well. Occasionally, one of us got hurt and Deadlox could only watch. How could we stop it? Deadlox looked so worn out but he tried. He called out 2 names and 2 huge brown wolves appeared. He told the wolves to attack but not kill. I was a bit confused because bears were a wolf's enemy but these wolves were capable of scaring off the bear. They returned to Deadlox who thanked them and left. We walked up to him. He was leaning against a tree.

"Sorry I wasn't a lot of help there," he apologized.

"It's fine," TrueMU said. I bandaged all of us as Deadlox looked around. He was putting all of his weight on the tree and panting slightly. We were all worried but didn't say anything. We decided to go back home. We were put in a very bad spot. A village found out about Sky's eyes, Deadlox was in bad shape, Sky was sick, we were all injured, and Deadlox just couldn't keep going.

I helped Deadlox walk since he could barely do it on his own. We were walking for what felt like days even though it was 10 hours.

When we finally reached home, I put Deadlox on his bed. Deadlox still didn't want to sleep though. I sighed and Sky said he'd watch him. I nodded and left.

Sky's POV

Deadlox looked so fragile. He looked like he would shatter any moment now. He needed sleep.

"Deadlox, try to sleep."

"I can't. How are you feeling?"

"A lot better thank you but stop trying changing the subject. Go to sleep. I'll be right here in case something happens alright? Go to sleep." It took a little convincing and protesting but I managed to get him to sleep. Just then, Bajan slowly walked in.

"Asleep?" He mouthed. I nodded. He came over quietly. He looked at Deadlox sympathetically. I understood how he felt. We sat in silence for a moment. Bajan told me, whispering, that they were going to find out if there was a hospital around here that would give them blood. I nodded and he left.

I sat there for a few hours. Deadlox had a few nightmares but was able to go back to sleep. A couple hours later, Deadlox woke up and didn't go back to sleep. He still looked a mess though.

His hair had gone back to multicolored last night before he changed. He bowed his head and his hair fell around him. He held the side of his head and panted. He looked even worse if that was possible.

I put my hand on his chest to push him back down but felt his heartbeat in the process. It was going really slow. At least 1 beat every 5 seconds. I widened my eyes. Deadlox wasn't panicking but he did look like he was in pain. He grabbed the trashcan and coughed up gray blood. I felt his heartbeat again and it was back to normal. Deadlox leaned against the wall sideways after cleaning his mouth. He panted heavily.

I looked him concerned. He looked at me.

"It's…fine…It's…happened…before…" He said between pants.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Remember when you guys were organizing the storage and I asked what it meant if I coughed up gray blood? I had the same thing happen before I asked that."

"That kind of makes sense."

"I am really sorry Sky. I am so sorry I turned out like this."

"It's perfectly fine. It doesn't matter what you look like to us just as long as you are Deadlox. We will help you through anything. You are our best friend. How many times must I tell you that?"

"Until you convince me."

"I shouldn't have to. We've been friends for years. You should know I would do anything for you."

"They're home." Sure enough, I heard the door close. A couple minutes later, Bajan walked in.

"Anything?" I asked.

"No. If anything, it got worse. The village told other villages about your eyes."

"Damn it," Deadlox said burying his face into his hands. We gave him looks of sympathy that he couldn't see. "Why the hell did I go out into the forest that one night?"

We didn't know what to say right there. What was going on in his mind that day?

I put my hand on his shoulder and Bajan sat next to him. He rubbed Deadlox's back.

"It's not your fault," Bajan said reassuringly. I squeezed Deadlox's shoulder and he looked up. He looked so depressed. I took a good look at his face.

He was tinted slightly gray and his eyes had bags underneath them. His eyes were flashing dull colors now. They no longer flashed bright colors like pink, yellow, light blue, and neon green. He looked really depressed and tired.

I sighed and sat on the other side of him on the bed. Deadlox fixed his eyes to look out the window. He slouched his shoulders.

Bajan got up. "I'll be right back." He left the room.

Deadlox swayed. I looked at his face. He looked so sick all of a sudden. He put his hand on the wall to steady himself. I grabbed the side of his waist and his back. Deadlox winced and gasped. I turned very concerned. He looked as if he had been shot by a silver bullet. Deadlox grabbed his stomach and doubled over as much as he can because he was sitting. I became very worried.

"Deadlox?"

"It hurts."

"What does?"

"Everything. It all hurts." He sounded so bad. He also looked very bad. I put his head in my lap and he started shaking. He curled up into a little ball and held his middle. He was sweating and his eyes were closed shut. Bajan walked back in.

He looked at me questioningly and I shrugged. He knelt beside Deadlox and put a hand on Deadlox's forehead. He pulled back almost immediately.

"What?" I asked.

"He's burning hot," Bajan answered his eyes wide. "Hotter than lava."

I sucked in a sharp breath. Oh Notch Deadlox.

Deadlox's POV

Nothing could explain how much pain I was in. My whole body felt like I was on fire. I felt like screaming. I could barely hear the voices in the background. I don't know what's going on. I was losing my bearings.

All the breath was knocked out of me. I felt someone touch my forehead but pull back immediately. The pain surged through me again and I almost, so closely, screamed. I grit my teeth hard.

The pain was destroying me. What was worse was that I didn't know what was going on. I don't know how long I was like that but it felt like hours when the pain finally stopped.

I stopped gritting my teeth and opened my eyes slightly. I was in Sky's lap and everything was blurry. I opened my eyes all the way and it took a bit for everything to clear.

Bajan was in front of me and he put his hand on my forehead.

"He's already back to his normal temperature," he said surprised.

"You okay Deadlox?" Sky asked. I couldn't open my mouth to answer. I was still recovering. Instead, I just nodded. They looked at me very concerned when I tried to sit up. When I did, I panted, trying to catch my breath.

Sky looked at worried when I finally recovered.

"Are you sure you're fine?" He asked.

"Yeah. Just really tired right now."

"Then sleep."

"Hell no. All those nightmares…I'd rather not."

"Deadlox, if anything is to go wrong, we'll be right here. Nothing is going to hurt you," Bajan assured.

I trusted them so I lay back down on my pillow and tried to sleep.

*Deadlox's Dream*

I was in a forest running, panting, and scared. Silver bullets flew by my ear. It was turning dark. The Last Quarter moon was rising. When it finally did, I turned ice cold and my eyes glazed over. I turned to mist and became my wolf deity form. I flew high into the night sky. I looked down and saw angry villagers with silver bullets. They shot at me but I dodged them all. I flew away as fast as I could. They followed, determined to kill me. Morning was coming and I saw a mountain. The mountain was very steep and unclimbable. I was almost there but I felt myself changing. I was lowered to the ground and turned back into a human. I ran but I was shot and I fell. The villagers gathered around me. They shot and beat me. Soon enough, I was dead.

*End of Dream*

Sky's POV

We were just talking about our concern for Deadlox when he started thrashing in his sleep. He wasn't even shifting, he was thrashing. We got up from my bed and walked quickly to his. We tried to shake him awake but he was too absorbed into the nightmare. We tried as hard as we could to wake him but it was no use.

He finally awoke. He shot up and almost hit us. His eyes were wide and he looked horrified. He was panting for air. When he finally calmed down, he turned sad. He hid his head in his hands and groaned. He looked at us.

"We tried. We really did. We tried to wake you up, I swear-" I was cut off by Deadlox.

"It's fine. I believe you." He leaned against the wall and he was past the point off depression, stress, exhaustion, and mourning. Deadlox was turning lifeless. Soon he will be a hollow and empty shell wandering Minecraftia. DAMN IT SKY! DON'T THINK LIKE THAT! HE'S YOUR BEST FRIEND!

"You feeling better?" Deadlox asked.

"What?" how could he be worried about me in the condition he was in?

"Y-Yeah. How can you be worried about me right now?!"

"Cuz I have nothing else to do."

"Deadlox, do you ever worry about your own health? You're so concerned about us, be concerned for yourself too," I said softly.

"I know I should but I don't see the point. We all know something's wrong with me but we don't what. It's like I'm some kind of mistake now."

"Deadlox, you will never be a mistake to us," Bajan and I said at the same time. He looked at us.

"Thanks." We hugged him. He will never be a mistake to us.

That's it for right now.

Sky: You're doing really well.

Me: Thank you but that's for the readers to decide.

Bajan: I just read it, do I count?

Me: I guess.

Bajan: I think it was really good.

Me: Okay, thanks guys.

Everyone: Welcome!

Me: Anyways, hope you enjoyed! Until then…

Everyone: *Waves* DARKSOMEONE41 SIGNING OUT! *Salutes and winks* C YA!
