Hey everybody! This chapter marks the halfway point! I will try to post more so I can start a new Fanfiction and write the other ones I have going. So enjoy this new chapter. I am also so so so so soooo sorry for not uploading in months! I am working on a fanfiction that I will start to post as soon as I finish this fanfiction. However, don't worry, I plan to write more often before school starts up again.

Chapter 10: The New Girl

In the darkness, I heard a soft song. I couldn't make out what any of the words were. Suddenly, the song stopped.

"How are they doing?" A female voice said.

"Fine." Evie responded.

"Have either of them woken up?" The woman asked.

"No. Has he done anything too bad?" From what I heard, Jeb is in hiding, Ironopolis is destroyed, and a number of people are dead."The woman explained. I heard her put setting down. I tried to move, but I just couldn't. I continued to wait is out. Evie sighed. "Don't worry, it'll be fine. Steve will wake up and kill the tyrant." It fell silent. After a few moments, Evie started to hum the melody she had been singing. "You've never told me why you continue to sing."

"I want to be sure there is peace here." Evie went back to humming.

"You can sing the words, they are so beautiful." The other woman begged. It went silent again. I finally forced my eyes to open. Neither of the women did not see me. I moved around a bit, and Evie saw that.

"Niar, get me some water, Steve is awake." Evie quickly said. Niar hurried to get some water. I sat up. Evie had attempted to help me, but I refused.

"I'm fine." I insisted.

"You've been asleep for days." Evie said. Niar returned with a bottle of water. I quickly checked for broken bones, luckily I had non. I looked over to Creeper. He was still bloody and asleep. Niar gave me the water and I sipped it as I thought about life back home. I thought about if my parents missed me., how my younger brothers were faring, and how much my older sister must miss me. I sure missed her. I was picturing a search party for me. I sipped on the bottle again, but this time it was empty. I set it down. I stood up slowly, making sure Evie wouldn't see me. I made it up without getting dizzy. I knew a little bit about health, my mom was a nurse and she has taught me quite a bit. First, I checked Creeper's pulse, it was completely normal. I looked at his wounds. The only one I could find was a gash on his leg. I was relieved to find that it wasn't infected, but without stitches, it would be a very bad scar. I guess that Creeper wouldn't mind. Niar came in, she sighed.

"Evie went on and on about you." She claimed.

"Is that so?" I questioned. Niar nodded.

"She says a lot of nice things about you." Niar came closer to me. She stroked my arm. I looked back at Creeper.

"Do you mind if you got more water, and a new bandage?" I asked. Niar sighed.

"Sure." Niar left the room. She returned within a few minutes. I removed Creeper's old bandage and gently washed the gash, then I rewrapped it. "You're quite the healer." Niar complemented.

"Uhh, thanks." I spat out.

"Where'd you learn that?" Niar asked, picking up the bottle and bandage.

"My mother, she's a nurse." I said gently.

"So does that make you one?" Niar asked again.

"NO!" I practically yelled. Niar backed away. "I'm...I just miss my home."

"It's fine, how about some food? Evie made some fish." Niar offered. I nodded, and then inspected what I had in my pockets. I only had my diamond sword. I heard a small groan.

"Creeper?" I asked and looked over to Creeper. He opened his eyes and looked over to me.

"Oh, no." He groaned. "What happened?" I shrugged. Evie and Niar soon returned. Evie glared at me, I smiled.

"I told you I'm fine, but right now, let's focus on eating and telling Creeper and me what happened." I instructed.

"Creeper wouldn't hear." Evie exclaimed angrily.

"Highly unlikely." Creeper answered. Evie gave what she was holding to Niar and ran over to Creeper. "I'm fine, I've had worse." Creeper groaned. Evie sighed and stepped away.

"We are are scraping up enough money for a potion or golden apple." Niar said.

"No need. It's not that bad." Creeper answered.

"Too bad, we are almost there." Evie declared angrily. Creeper attempted to move himself into a sitting position, and I helped him up.

"Thanks." He said solemnly. I nodded.

"Here, eat." Niar instructed and gave Creeper and me food. She went back out and gave Evie food as well. "Just tell me if you want some milk or something." Niar offered.

"So if you don't mind me asking, where are we?" I asked.

"My house. I built this baby from scratch, and it is still being built. About 100 blocks north is the small town of Craftsburg." Niar explained. I had finished the meal provided for me.

"Niar, why don't you tell us about yourself?" Creeper offered to keep some noise. Niar nodded.

"I've been all over Minecraftia, I finally decided to settle near a small town, and live with no one else. Sure, eventually it would be nice to settle down with someone, but for now, no one. However, I am a self trained archer." Niar went off on a tangent. I went back on thinking about my family. Soon, I finally discovered that there was a window. I took a peek out, but only to find out it was night. From what I understood about Niar's past, she had been abused by her father after her mother died. She ran away eventually and she had been living on her own since then.

"Shall we rest up for tomorrow?" I offered.

"I guess so. It would be helpful." Niar answered.

"Any plans?" Evie asked.

"I guess we should start getting money. If creeper is willing, we could sue him to get money." Niar explained.

"We'll see." Creeper groaned.

"Good night." I quickly interrupted.

" Good night." Evie and Niar responded. The two of them left. I quickly closed the door and returned to the open bed and I sat on it. I let out a slow, gentle sigh.

"Are you alright?" Creeper asked me.

"Yeah, just a little homesick." I answered. "I just want to kill herobrine and go home."

"I understand." Creeper said as he sat up.

"You do?" I excitedly questioned.

"Of course. I come from the far out reaches of Minecr..." Creeper started but I interrupted him.

"You don't understand. In my world, everything isn't blocky. It's so weird to go through a change like that." Creeper was silent for a moment.

"You didn't let me finish. I got stuck in your world. That's where I got all my scars. I lied that they were from explosions to hide what happened." Creeper explained.

"How'd you get back?" I asked excitedly.

"I completed a task that I was sent to do. In my case, I had to kill a man. I returned about a day later." Creeper had laid back down. I smiled wide. I knew I was going to go home. I laid down and tried to fall asleep, but the joy of knowing that I'll be back home after I kill the tyrant taking over this land. Eventually, I did manage to fall asleep, though.
