Chapter.15: Lost…..
As the day went by to the evening Theron sat in the dining room eating Gunpowder with Steak. He began scooping up the powdery substance and began eating it and swallowed allowing a few puffs of smoke to exit his mouth when he exhaled. (Now I know what you're all thinking. HOW THE HELL CAN HE EAT THAT IT'S BAD FOR HIS LUNGS AND WE CAN'T DIGEST THE CRAP. Well to be specific he was forced to eat the stuff since he was a kid and…the Creepers took out his stomach and replaced it with their so he's able to eat Gunpowder and other food. Yet they didn't place TNT inside him. Moving on.) As he continued eating that same voice spoke to him.
"I thought you loved me. Why do you hang with them if you loved me?" The voice said.
Theron jolted again and looked around and like the last time…their was nothing. This was the second time he heard this voice today and he really didn't like it.
(Theron's P.o.v)
"What the heck is with this voice?" I muttered.
I was already frightened enough with that vision and I didn't need anymore frightening things to screw with my mind. The guys always said that I'm least likely to get scared by stuff. Guess they were wrong.
"Hayden…" I heard the girls call out.
I snapped out of my thought bubble and looked up to see the girls looking at me with their new Creeper clothes and their clean skin since they took a bath.
"Yeah…what is it?" I asked.
"Can you go to a cave and find Diamonds for us." Cupa asked.
Theron stared at the girls with a calm face before facepalming himself and exhaling.
"Fine…how many Diamonds do you need?" He asked.
"I would like 10 Diamonds." Elena said.
"6 Diamonds Hayden." Flare chuckled.
"I'll have 10 as well." Cupa replied.
"And I'll have 15 Hayden." Sophia giggled.
"Great I need to get 31 diamonds. Sure I look for Diamonds like a Pro but c'mon now even I can find 31 Diamonds."
I thought.
"Alright…I find the Diamonds for you." I told them.
"THANK-YOU HAYDEN!" They shouted while also hugging me.
-Ten Minutes later-
I finished eating my food my food and I made myself a enchanted Iron Pickaxe thanks to King Booms library. I then exited the castle and began to find the nearest cave but of course the voice in my head continued talking to me.
"Why do you listen to these girls? They're only using you why don't you see that?" The voice said.
I continued to ignore the voice but it seemed familiar. Each time the voice spoke my voice would always hurt and I don't know why. As I continued walking until I reached the cave. I brought a lot of torches with me in case I got lost so I was fully prepared.
"31 Diamonds. I better be careful as possible." I muttered.
As I took my first step the voice spoke to me but a lot harsher.
"WHY DO YOU LISTEN TO THEM? WHY DON'T YOU COME BACK TO ME?" The voice said harshly.
I head began to blister after I heard the voice. It seemed angrier but I need to keep going. They helped me so I need to help them and I promised that I would help them.
(No P.o.v)
Theron walked inside the cave and began placing torches down as he walked. He descended from cave down to another cave and he also began digging holes if he got stuck. He encountered Mobs as he descended into the caves but most left him be thinking that he was a humanoid Creeper thanks to his disguise but some who tried to attack him always met his pickaxe to their head. Most who attacked were Zombies or Skeletons the Creepers left him be or just followed him around wondering what he was doing. As Theron continued exploring he came across a random chest that laid on the ground.
"Hmm…what's this?" He muttered.
He opened the chest and looked inside to find 10 Diamonds. He seemed surprise but it was weird.
"Ok…this is just strange. I mean…sure I found 10 Diamonds but in a chest that's just here without torches around it just makes it suspicious." Theron muttered.
Theron looked around the lit area with the torches he placed down. No one was around but that didn't make him calm. He went into his pocket and took out a mini TNT which grew to the size of a baseball. He began walking but with his TNT at the ready. He had his Pickaxe on his back and his other hand held the torches which he placed down. Being in a cave isn't his specialty. Especially when he's alone and the reason for this is because Kai is the one that goes in caves.
Theron continued walking and looked around but as he got deeper and deeper the less he see's any of the mobs. They were the only thing that kept him company even if they didn't talk. Theron soon came to a hole and it was a very deep hole. He looked down and saw that their was lava at the bottom and it seemed like a 30ft. fall to get down there.
"Great. I only find 10 Diamonds and I run into a dead end. Guess I better go back." Theron muttered.
He stared at the whole for another two minutes before turning around before something shocked him. The torches he placed down where gone and there was only the eternal darkness that awaited him.
"Great. My worst enemy…caves that are pitch black. This is just my Fucking luck." Theron sighed.
He went into his pocket and he soon realized that he didn't have anymore and it made him sigh.
"Well…better go in there and be a freaking man." Theron said.
He took out his Pickaxe and began walking with both his Pickaxe and TNT in his hands ready to attack anything that may get the drop on him in the dark. As Theron was inside the darkened area he couldn't see a thing. What was weirder was that the voice in his head disappeared. Theron seemed to get nervous knowing that something was up and didn't let his guard down for a second.
Theron continued walking for about 30mins. and he may think that he's lost. Theron was getting worried by the second.
"God…I hate caves. Why did I have to go into a cave. I mean sure I'm not scared like everyone else but…this is just creepy without any company. I need to find a way out." Theron spoke to himself.
Theron's eyes then widen with joy as he saw light.
"YES LIGHT!" Theron yelled.
He began running towards the light with excitement but it was soon cut short when he stopped and dropped his weapons in the hole that he encountered a while back. The tools he brung fell down the 30ft. hole and burnt in the lava while Theron just stood there.
"You got to be kidding me." Theron muttered.
He just stared down the hole for 30mins. before sighing in frustration.
"Great just great. I'm so fucked. All because I had to look for Diamonds and now look. I'm stuck down here without anyway to get out." Theron said in frustration.
He soon sighed and looked at the hole for another 2mins. before speaking again.
"I guess I should go back and look for another way." Theron said.
He turned around and was about to walk but stopped dead in his traps when he saw someone staring at him. The Figures bloodshot eyes stared wide at him and Theron just stood there.
"I finally found you…" the Figure whispered in a female like voice.
Theron felt an eerie chill run down his spine. He saw the female figure smile at him and he saw her bloody teeth. Theron shivered and continued to stand where he was. The figure then tilted her head and their was a sickening sound of bones cracking.
"I miss you so much…why don't you come here an give me a hug." She whispered again.
She then started moving to him and there were sounds of bones snapping and he also heard something dripping. Theron began backing away slowly but the figure seemed to be coming faster with her smile showing her bloody teeth. The boy couldn't say anything and his fear was rising.
"This…c-c-can't be real." Theron said nervously.
Theron then stumbled seeing that he was at the edge of the hole and he was now staring down at the lava. He then turned back and saw the figure approaching him and she seemed to have a dagger in her hand.
"Let's become whole my love…then we'll never leave each other again." She said sadistically.
Theron looked at her and then the lava. To choices which he never liked but he had only one and this was going to be his last choice he had ever made. As the girl was a foot away from him and raised her dagger Theron took his final step backwards and fell down the whole. He closed his eyes and thought of the last image he could think of before burning in his fiery grave.
"Sophia, Cupa, Elena, Flare…I miss you." He whispered as he felt the heat approaching him.
