Alright, here we go.
Sorry if it's been a few days, I have been busy with work and other things, so please forgive my laziness.
This is my first story, so take my excuses!
On to the story.
Where is he?
It's been almost another month, now I'm starting to worry.
Technoblade would not just up and leave for that long without telling us first. He also would not go anywhere for this long without me or Ranboo supporting him.
"Do you think he went out to explore or something and got lost?" Ranboo asks.
" No, he's never gotten lost before, he would have marked his landscape out. He also would not explore at night. Mate's too cautious. "
"Well, we've asked around and no one's seen him. Do you think he..."
"No, this is Technoblade. I just don't know where he could be?"
" Wait, isn't the nether very hard to landscape due to it's randomness? "
"We already looked through the nether, Techno would not go that far out from the portal."
" Hm, your right. "
Then it dawned on me.
"Rods! Techno did say that morning he was out of blaze rods."
" Huh, so I wasn't far off. Do you think he got lost in the nether? "
"Well, it is a possibility. But, again, he would not have gone that far out from the portal. "
"Wait, what about the other portals? Maybe sensei went through a different one back?"
" He would then know how to get back here. "
"Then maybe I was right about the lost part. We already searched the landscape here, why not search deeper into the nether? "
Not a bad idea, but risky.
"Ok, we'll look deeper, but we need to be careful. Getting lost is not fun in the nether world."
As I start preparing a few things for the trip, I look over to the bag of gold Techno had given me a while ago. We'll find ya mate, your one tough pig.
As we stand in front of the portal, I can't help but feel like we're being watched.
"You ok Phil?" " Yeah, thought I felt something. Anyways, I should be able to carry you for a while. We won't fly the whole time, being as we need to mark our location. We'll just place some torches down, and follow them back. "
"Ok, we'll find him Phil. Sensei's strong, no one can beat him."
Almost no one.
We go through. The nether has never felt bigger than now.
As we search through the nether, I never realized how much Techno looks like the other piglins. Every time I see one, I almost think it's him.
I use my wings most of the time to keep Ranboo and me safe, and a few times Ranboo teleported us across large gaps of lava when we go by foot.
It's been a few hours (I think?) and still no sign of him. We have gone back to see if he went in another direction, but still no sign.
After a couple more hours (I don't understand nether time) we call it quits.
"Where could he be?" " I don't know, but we'll find him. He has to be somewhere. " I try to reassure Ranboo.
We make our way back to the portal. As we go through, Ranboo looks through a map.
I look around. This is not home.
"What's the chance that sensei's pick axe broke in a cave in?"
" Uh, Ranboo? "
"No that would be too unlucky. Sensei would not go mining without proper tools. "
"Ranboo?"
" Do you think XD did something -"
"Ranboo!"
He looks up, and sees the new landscape.
We're standing in a path, that's surrounded by nothing but big trees in a grassland. .He
" Wrong portal, maybe we... "
The portal.
It's gone!
"The heck?" We look over the ground. Nothing.
" Redstone, maybe? " "No, we would have heard it. Did you bring the obsidian?"
" Yeah, it 's right... " Ranboo starts looking through his bag.
"I swear, I brought it." " It's alright. We can just start following the path. I wonder who's this is anyways? "
"I don 't recognize the trees, do you think it's someone who lives far out?"
"Maybe, come on. I'll fly us there."
As we start flying, I could swear I saw a large shadow move.
Salem:
For once, some good news.
We have located another Maiden. If we get her to join our side or take their power, we can use it to find the next relic.
That would be at least one advantage we have over you, Oz.
"Hazel, go with Watts to the maidens location. Talk with them first, we can make an ally. If they refuse, being them back here, alive."
" Yes, my queen. As you wish. "
Technoblade:
God danmit!
I have spent so much time looking for a way home, and I have almost lost hope.
I have tried mixing lava and water to make a portal the old fashioned way, but for some reason every time I might it, nothing happens.
I have tried looking into any known history or mention of my world. Nothing.
I have even tried seeing if maybe the SMP is somewhere in another island. Nope, whole planet has already been explored and the closest thing to the size of it would be here.
I don't understand how I even ended up here. The portal I went through should have taken me home, so why am I here?
*sigh* I 'm just frustrated. My only hope by now is if someone from my world figures out a way here. And that's an if.
I hope their doing ok. Philza would of course wonder where I am, and Ranboo would probably be more worried about me than Phil.
Niki, well, she was a new member. She would be fine without me. And probably the rest of the SMP would be glad to see me gone forever.
I hope they're ok. Though, without me around, no one would have a reason to bother them.
I hear a knock on my door. "Mr. Blade, Ozpin would like to speak with you." It was Glynda.
" I will be right there. " Wonder what he wants.
Probably another mission for me.
I leave the room, making my way to his office. "Hey, Professor. Where are you off to." It's Velvet.
" Ozpin needs me. Probably for a mission or something. How goes the books I gave you? "
"Great, they've been added to my arsenal. Good luck with Oz."
Yeah, we'll see. The kid 's been, by far, the most interesting person I've trained so far. Never seen someone fight with so many weapons. (Almost thought about taking that camera, though I'm not a thief.)
Amber seems already strong, she just needs to have more confidence in her attacks. Too much defense leaves little offense.
Of course, then there's the new Thesis. Juane Arc. After seeing how he was training on that roof, it would have been painful if I didn't teach him.
A few days ago:
I was coming back from another nightly patrol. Last ones were trying to rob a dust shop. All cannon fodder tonight, it seems.
Probably should clean my blade before training tomorrow. I climb my way up to the roof, than I hear a noise off to the side in the balcony.
I make my way quietly over to it. Through the darkness, I see a figure swinging a sword.
"Hiya!" And doing a poor job of keeping his balence.
Oh, it's the leader of JNPR. Juane Arc. Is he, training or just playing with his sword?
He swings again, adding too much weight and losing his balance, tripping but he catches himself.
This is too painful to watch. *sigh*, might as well train another one.
"Mr. Arc?" " Aah! "He quickly turns to me.
"Professor! Um, what are you doing here? "
"I should ask you the same. Do you know how late it is?"
" Uh, well no. " He looks at his scroll. His eyes go big from the time.
"Sorry, Professor. I was, uh, just going for some late night training."
" I can see that. Do you mind if I ask, but have you ever actually been trained properly before coming here? "
"What, of course I have. I'm just ... a slow learner?"
I cross my arms. He sighs.
" I just need more training, is all. What you said earlier, well I wouldn't stop thinking about it. So I wanted to get more practice in from up here. "
What did I say earlier? (Learn from your mistakes here and now, or die out there.) Oh yeah, that.
"Well, at least I know your paying attention in class." " Heh, yeah. "
"How would you like extra lessons?" He's quite for a few seconds. " Um, will that give me more work in class? "
"Heh, no. It will mean I have to train you outside of class, so technically more class time."
He goes quite again. "Yeah, actually. That would be great."
" We can start now, of you want. " "Now?" " Yes, we're already out here. "
End of flashback:
The night ended with me realizing that was a lie. I had to give him a crash course of the basics for him to catch up with the rest of his classmates.
He has heart, he just needs a lot more fighting experience. He reminds me a lot of Tommy, only at least he had some experience with fighting.
His fault he lost anyway.
I make my way up to the top floor. Ozpin's mission's have never been that hard, it's mostly been go here and fight this.
let's see what he has instore for me today.
And done.
Well, here comes Phil and Ranboo. It was only natural they look for him and end up stuck there too.
Hope you all are having a good day. Peace!
