STILL SKY'S P.O.V

A week had passed since the death of Ty's father and yet I still didn't know who had reported it to the police. Could it have been a Minecraftian? No, I'm sure I would've noticed. Something just seemed off about this whole fiasco. Another part of me scowled and told me that I should be content with having Ty in my arms and the people most important to me still alive. I chose to half listen to that side, indeed it was true but my gut instinct had something different to tell me. "Sky..? You've been spacing out for a while now…" He mumbled. I shook myself out of my stupor, reaching up and grabbing him by the waist before pulling him down onto my lap. "S-Sky!" He exclaimed, already beginning to turn red. This boy was just too cute. "Ty, you shouldn't tempt me like you do." I mumbled, my hand carding through his chestnut coloured locks. He let out a small sigh of content. I didn't want to push him any further than kissing and maybe touching at this stage though, I felt as if he wasn't ready for it. And so all I could do was wait it out. I didn't really mind it all that much to be honest. Ty eventually wriggled out of my grip and headed off towards the living room.

I knew that it was safer to stay at Mitch and Jerome's place but the sense of comfort and belonging just wasn't there. That and I felt like we we're intruding in on their private moments. And so we decided to stay at our real home, the one located in the forest biome. Though not much time had passed, it seemed like it had. When we first entered through the trusty old iron door, the house was covered in a thin layer of dust and Ty just couldn't stop sneezing. I actually thought that it was somewhat adorable, even though he began throwing tissues all over the place. We eventually did tidy up the house even with the set-back of Ty's sneezing.

It's become a sort-of habit now but I've noted that I'm always sure to turn on the television whenever the news is on in hopes of finding out a bit more about who reported Ty's father's death and who might've witnessed it. Alas, I've had no such luck as of yet. Ty acts completely normal around me when he thinks I'm awake. There are times when he begins to cry helplessly in the middle of the night, muffling his hiccups and whimpers as much as he can, and I can't do anything about it because he thinks that I'm asleep. And it's only because he thinks I'm asleep that he ever really cries at all. I understand that his father's death upset him but I'd never have thought that it would be to this extent. One thing that warmed me though was the fact that the brunette would bury his face in my chest after his crying subsided, as if he knew he could find some type of comfort in being close to me.

Pushing most of my thoughts away, I made my way towards the bed and then proceeded to lie down. I stared up at the ceiling for quite a while, thoughts rushing past far too quickly for me to decipher any of them. I had a feeling that Ty wouldn't be coming to bed anytime soon so instead I decided to nod off…

DEADLOX'S P.O.V

What am I going to do?I don't know how to deal with this. Who or what are these 'squids' and why did they send me this letter? I don't understand. I felt like I've heard the term 'squids' before but from where? I had not a single clue. What do they want from me? From Sky? None of this makes any sense and I don't want to tell Sky either. He's already stressed enough; he doesn't need to immediately know of this letter or the threat that lies within it. I re-read the letter for the third time that day, all the while trying to figure out what to do and what it meant.

-o-

Hello Ty. You probably don't know who we are unless Sky told you about us. Either way, we want Sky. And we will get him. Keep your guard up. Any type of resistance will result in a war between the squids and the Minecraftians, do keep that in mind. Then again, I do expect you to retaliate, for Sky is your lover; is he not? Anyhow, you will not know when we will arrive but do know that we will arrive and when we do, things will not be very appealing.

Fuck. Nether this sucks! Does Notch have something against me and Sky? Why does this only ever happen to us? I shook my head; I was being irrational and acting like a douche. Things that are even worse had happened to other people and though bad things had been done to me, I was in no place to complain. Not when I had a roof over my head, food to eat and someone who loves me. Maybe in the past I had a reason to complain, a reason to hate life, to show the utmost contempt to everybody around me.

I was rustled out of my thoughts by Sky suddenly speaking to me. "What's that?" He asked, trying to sneak a glance at the paper which I now had hidden behind my back. "Nothing…And I thought you fell asleep?" I said, well it came out more as a question. "I woke up." He stated with a cheeky grin, prodding my side with his elbow. "Now tell me. What was that?" He persisted, going as far as to reach around my back in hopes of snatching the paper. I denied him as best as I could up until he tackled me to the floor and began tickling me. "Sk-Sky!" I exclaimed, little bubbles of laughter erupting from my mouth. Sky leaned down and placed his lips over mine, his tongue somehow finding its way into my mouth. I desperately tried to stop the little whimpers and moans that were escaping but I couldn't; especially not when Sky's hand was feeling me all over. Notch, this was not fair. The amulet-wearing brunette suddenly flipped me, so that my front was on the floor, my breath hitched instantly.

I don't think I'm ready for this. Not yet.

But it wasn't what I thought it'd be. Sky swiftly grabbed the paper from my hands and backed off but not before helping me up. I let out a sigh before realising just what had actually happened. "SKY! DON'T READ THAT!" I shouted, frantically trying to take back the paper. Sky held out his hand and stopped me from coming any closer. I could see his eyes shift from side to side and I knew he had begun reading the letter. I cringed as I saw his lips form a firm line.

"Is this why you've been a bit off recently?" He asked, his eyes still fixated on the letter. "Y-Yeah…" I trailed off. I knew this would come back and bite me in the ass eventually. "You don't actually know the squids do you?" I shook my head as a no; he nodded and sat down on the floor. Surely now was not the time to talk, it had to be past midnight.

SKY'S P.O.V

I inwardly sighed. I knew this was coming. It just had to eventually, if not now then later. Nether, I should've killed Solaire when I had the chance but no, I was too much of a coward. I was too afraid and too full of regret. "Adam..?" His voice startled me a little but I didn't let it show, I glanced at him and then made my final decision. He had a right to know.

"I used to love this girl…Her name was Dawn. We were happy for a while until I rushed things. I asked her to marry me and she denied me. I was only seventeen when I asked her to marry me, it was a young and foolish move. Looking back on it, I don't think that I was actually in love with her. It seemed to be the thought of loving her. Maybe it was because no other girl ever paid me any attention. The rejection, as cold as it was, I let slide even though it hurt. It really fucking hurt. After this, the squids came. I don't know why they chose me as their enemy but they just did. They muttered something about my mother and father; to this day I still don't know who my real parents are or rather were, I'm pretty sure Solaire murdered them. They kidnapped Dawn and well, you read the journal. You know they turned her into a zombie and then killed her and made me watch. I never really got over that. Sure, I got over my love for her, now it's just a distant memory…But the feeling of being helpless? No. I never got over that. Solaire, he's the current squid king. He…He tortured me for a bit and then got bored and decided to discard me. He tossed me out into the middle of the ocean and then teleported back to his own kingdom, The Underwater World or better known as The Under World. Evil things happened there, things people didn't like to discuss." I took a deep breath, recalling some of the dark things I had seen.

"Solaire…He was cruel, I don't think he knew what he was doing. He's insane and not fit to be a leader and yet everyone followed him around like a lost puppy. It was sickening to watch. Most of the squids were spiteful creatures, I saw a few though…They-They…I saw the guilt etched onto their faces but in the end they didn't dare defy their leader. I had to swim all the way back to shore, it was more than a few thousand blocks away. I was hungry, nearly on the verge of passing due to hunger and tired. I was so, so tired. My muscles ached, everything was protesting. And I really thought that I was going to die there. That me, being out alone in the middle of the sea, starving slowly to my death would be the way for me to go. And then Notch gave me a miracle, well a miracle in the form of Jerome and Mitch. They came out in boats, searching for me." I paused, seeing a smile forming on Ty's face.

"They found me. They took me home and patched me up. Promptly after this was when I began building my own home, in hopes of trying to pass the time. Trying to forget the fact that Dawn was dead, I had been tortured and Solaire was still alive. After two months, the house was complete. I like the forest; it gives me a sense of peace. It was away from the sea and little pigs and chickens could be found everywhere. It was calming. A few years after these events was when I met you. And we've only known each other now for about a few months but it's honestly felt longer. I know you're worried about the squids but we will defeat them, I swear it. I won't let them lay a finger on you."

He didn't say anything after that. Truth be told, we both knew nothing really needed to be said. At least not now, let the calm settle in a little and let everything rest easy. Just for now, let's keep the quiet. Though I know come tomorrow, I'll be needing to make a few visits to other people and let them know to be ready for a battle. No. A war.
