Punz POV (WHAT??????)

    Deo.  Deo went and killed my little brother.  Over Hypixel.  No one was supposed to get hurt.  No one was supposed to die.  Yet here we were.  Purpled dead and Deo without a single scratch. 

    Currently, Bitzel is holding me back from straight up killing Deo right here and now.  If it weren't for Bitzel, Deo would most certainly be dead right now.  Deo has a look of shock and horror on his face.  He kept mumbling to himself but I was too blinded by rage to pick up on what he was saying.  I heard shuffling behind me but didn't pay much attention to it.

    "WHAT THE FUCK, DEO!" I screamed at him. "WHY THE HELL DID YOU KILL HIM?!  ALL HE WANTED WAS TO PLAY SOME STUPID GAMES SO HE COULD GET MONEY ON HIS OWN!  HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO TELL HIS FRIENDS OR TOMMY FOR THAT MATTER?!  HOW DO I TELL THEM THAT ONE OF HIS BEST FRIENDS MURDERED HIM OVER SOME STUPID REASON?!"

    I stopped yelling as I noticed that not only was I crying, but so was Deo.

"I didn't.." Deo whispered between sobs, "I didn't mean to... I didn't mean to kill him... I thought.. I thought he'd teleport away before my sword reached him."

    I stopped trying to break out of Bitzel's grasp as I took in Deo's words.  As the three of us stood there crying, the once bright sky grew dark and drops of rain began to fall.  I looked over to where Purpled lay dead in the grass only to find that he wasn't there.  The only thing left was his sword and a patch of red.  That's when I noticed that Luke wasn't around either.

    As the rain began to pour down on Bitzel, Deo and I, I watched as the red patch got washed away.  I walked over to Purp's sword and picked it up.  Turning around, I look at Deo.  He seemed frozen in fear as I walked towards him.  I stood in front of Deo and braced himself to die by my hands.  I raised Purp's sword into the air then stabbed it into the ground in front of Deo.

    "We live for him now," I stated, sorrow lacing my voice.

    "We live for him," Bitzel repeated.

    "For Purpled," Deo whispered.

    I heard a door open and turned to find Luke in the doorway of a building.

    "Guys!" Luke called to the three of us. "Get inside before you all get sick!"

    Reluctantly, I followed Bitzel and Deo into the building.  Luke got us towels and went to make some hot chocolate.  I sat down on the floor in front of the couch.  Luke walked back into the room, handing the three of us a mug of hot chocolate. 

    "We gonna talk about the elephant in the room?" Luke asked.

    I noticed Deo stiffen at Luke's question.  I simply looked down, tears threatening to spill from my eyes.

    "Deo," Luke began, "what happened out there?"

    "I didn't mean to kill him.." Deo whispered, his voice cracking slightly.  "I thought his pearl would activate before I reached him."

    "Well it didn't," Luke stated.  "And you hurt him.  Luckily, we had some spare health potions lying around.  If we didn't, he'd probably be dead right now."

    I let the words sink into my brain.  Purp's not dead?  How?  That wound would've surly killed him.  I know it would because I've seen that same attack play out before.  The person died in an instant.

    "Purp's not dead..?" Deo asked the same question I had just thought.  His voice was barely above a whisper.

    "Correct," Luke confirmed.  "Now he probably won't wake up for a while.  A day or two at least.  The wound was too severe to heal completely with a health potion.  We have to let his body heal the rest of the way."
