They either limped, walked, or flew to the castle, where Notch would be waiting.
"I'm not sure..." Brice said hesitantly. He looked back at Seto's unconscious face. "I don't know if this is the real Notch..."
"I agree." Matt added. "We'll just have to find out."
"Let's just hope for the best..." Ty chimed, trying to keep his balance by using the wall as a support. They slowly walked in and saw Notch reading a book. The five kids chuckled quietly, Chelsea whispering, "He's reading 50 Blocks of Gray." Notch looked up and closed the book, placing it on the table.
"Ah... welcome back. It has been a while, no? Let us sit." Notch greeted. Everyone looked at eachother with fear as they gathered to where Notch was sitting.
"...so... how did you escape? Aside from reappearing from Seto's body." Adam asked first.
"It was a while... fighting Herobrine was a tough one." Notch replied.
"Wait wait wait wait." Aaliyah interuptted. "We all know that instead of Herobrine being trapped in the concrete, it was you. So you were basically brought into the prison first. If Adam killed Herobrine after your death, then how did you get back here?"
"Not to mention the fact that you were injured badly before you died. If I were in your shoes, I would look like I have a scar on my eye, a big bruise on my head, and stitches on my lip." Mitch added.
Notch had stayed silent.
"It is true... but..." Notch had started weakly.
"But...?" Jerome said.
"You are right."
"What?" Bodil questioned. Notch took out a small vial of a potion and popped the cap. He drank it and instantly laughed.
"Oh... what smart people... shame you have to die tonight." He laughed. His skin started to break slowly, the clothes slowly falling to pieces. Everyone started to run, but a force blocked them. An explosion was heard, a ringing in everyones ear. Everyone screamed, but saw a faint light glowing in the center of thr group. A dark red aura showed, Tyler saved the lives.
"No one is dying tonight!" He growled. Herobrine was flying in the air, snarling. He had a scar stitched up, a stitch on his side with his shirt torn. His lip was bruised and part of his head was bleeding black blood.
"YOU!" He had pointed to Tyler. "Your little hope bubble! But how can you defeat my DESPAIR?!" Tyler fell down, the forcefield shattering into flass pieces. Everyone turned around, seeing SalBrine with a trident at hand. Her vaccant, blank eyes glowed brighter than before.
"Father..." she growled.
"Hello again, daughter." Herobrine smirked. "Ready to fight with me?"
"I'll be glad." She flew over to Herobrine's side and a dark aura glowed. Darkness made the castle go dark, and there was no light left.
"O-Oh no..." Ross stuttered. Ethan tried sparking a small fire, but failed.
"Where is everybody?" Ant asked.
"We're all here..."
"J-Jason...?" Shine asked. "C-can you try bringing light?"
"I can t-try... but I can't... something else needs to happen..." Jason answered weakly.
"Guys..." Kiera interuptted. "Let's just stay in a group together... the deal was fake..."
"What did we get ourselves into..." Alesa cried. Adam snuggled next to her, but she couldn't tell if it were Adam or Sub.
