Time for the trauma boi to experience the Darkness :>
—————————————————————————————————————
[Sabre's POV]
It's been about a week since I got to this world.
I've been healing pretty fast, Orange Steve says it's probably because I'm not exerting myself while recovering. He also says I'm starting to look less like a tiny skeleton (his words, not mine). Now, it's pretty much only my leg and a small spot on my face that's still injured.
I head downstairs excited, because Orange said that I'm probably healed enough for him to take me around with him while he finds things for me. When I reach the living room, Orange has already set out some baked potatoes and a water bottle for me on the table. He's playing with Gerald nearby on the floor.
"Hey, Orange!" I greet my friend. "You got the pigs in here now?"
"Hi Sabre, and yep!" Orange smiles at me while Gerald headbutts his hand. "The rest of them are outside, in the pig pen. Gerald just wanted to hang out in here for a little bit."
I run over to the table and pick up one of the potatoes. Orange giggles as I eat, and I look over.
"What?" I ask, already picking up the second.
"Tiny vacuum." Orange says, laughing.
"Shush." I say, playfully acting annoyed while Orange laughs harder.
A little while later, I drink the water I was given after finishing the last potato, while Orange puts Gerald back in his pen. I find it a little weird that Gerald has a fancier pen than the rest of the pigs, but hey, he's probably just the favorite. Orange comes back into the house as I lay back on the couch, happily watching the spot outside of the window. Orange comes over and sits down next to me.
"You excited for today?" Orange asks me.
"Heck yeah." I answer.
"We're probably just going to pick up some more seeds for the farmland, but I can teach you more about the whole 'environment mechanization' thing." Orange continues. "Who knows, we could even find some animals. Biological or mechanized."
"Either would be pretty cool." I say.
Suddenly, we both hear lightning outside. Orange quickly runs out while I slowly climb off the couch, and when I catch up to him outside I see lightning striking the orange portal.
"What the..." Orange mumbles.
"What's going on?!" I ask, as the lightning dies down to reveal the portal has activated.
"The village is in trouble." Orange says, wrapping his arm around my torso and picking me up. "Come on, we gotta go!"
I don't have time to say anything, and Orange dashes into the swirling multicolored window of light. As we go through, I feel the same floating feeling I had when I entered the portal that led here.
—————————————————————————————————————
Jeez, teleporting by portal does not feel good.
I feel us land, and I open my eyes to the little spot of steel forest that Orange teleported us out of last time we were here. At a first look around, nothing seems out of the ordinary, but then I see a little spot of some black stuff and... bedrock?
"Uh, Orange?" I ask. "Is there supposed to be bedrock there?"
Orange looks to where I was pointing, and panics at the sight of whatever's on the ground.
