Michael's adventure

Part 44

He opened the chest to see Ranboo's personal set of enchanted netherite armor and weapons. He pulled it out of the chest, it was big on him, but he still put it on. He was weighed down by it, but he could still stand and hold the sword. He took the armor off, put it in his bag, and began to walk out. He stopped by the shelves full of empty notebooks. His father kept a collection of empty notebooks for whenever he needed a new memory book. He brushed his finger along the spines of each of the notebooks. Each one was slightly different than the one before.

He left the empty notebooks and went upstairs to his dad's bedroom. He snooped around the bedroom, nothing was out of place. He got to Ranboo's desk and opened up each drawer. In the top was one of the many memory books he had. This one, in particular, had the day Michael had met everyone, including Technoblade. The entire day was described in intense detail. Michael sat down and read the entire thing, the book leaving a smile on Michael's face.

He closed the book and began to search the other drawers. They all had regular things in them like, pens, pencils, and random stuff. He reached down and pulled open the bottom left shelf. In it was an empty journal with an ender eye carved on the front, with a golden bee clip keeping the book closed. Michael ran his fingers in the engravings, taking in the intricate pattern. He turned the book around, to see cursive letters on the bottom left. The letters were RTM, each of their initials. He opened the journal to see it was completely empty. He quickly closed the journal, put it in his bag, and made his way out. The sun was already setting, so Michael hurried to Techno's.

He opened the door to see Techno sitting at his armchair, with his glasses on, reading. He looked up at Michael. Michael silently sat on the couch next to him, and Techno began to read aloud. Techno read to Michael every time he was over, and despite the circumstances, he read to Michael again today. It had been so hectic that this small act gave them both a sense of calmness.
