Fighting for my life ~ dsmp

Back to Purpled's POV

    I woke up in a darkened room.  As I tried to sit up, pain shot through my chest.  I opted for laying back down instead of trying to get up again.

    I looked around at the room I was in.  It seemed pretty basic.  Beige walls, a bed, a closet, a desk and chair, and a dresser.  The curtains blocked out almost all the light.  I was certainly not in my room back at my cabin.

    What even happened to me?  Oh yeah, that's right.  I was fighting with Deo.  He stabbed me.  Should I really be mad at him though?  We did agree that whatever happens, happens.  I was pulled from my thoughts as I heard footsteps approach the door of the room I was in.  As the door opened, I quickly shut my eyes in hopes that whoever it was would go away.  I really didn't feel like talking or moving considering that I still felt like shit.

    "Hey Purp," I heard Luke say.  "Still asleep huh?  Deo's worried sick about you.  So is Punz.  We all are if I'm being honest. Deo's really sorry," I felt the bed sink slightly as Luke sat down.  "I don't know how much longer I try to keep you alive.  We've ran out of health potions and can't get the resources to make more.  Please Purp, you have to wake up.  Just let me know you're still alive.  Something, anything."  I heard his voice break a little followed by soft sniffling.

    I opened my eyes a tiny bit and looked over at the blonde man hunched over himself.  I used the little strength I had to reach my hand up to his hoodie sleeve and give it a small tug.  Luke's head turned towards me so fast I thought his neck might snap.  Relief and joy flooded the previous terrified features on his face.

    "Purp!"  Luke said with relief flooding his voice.  "Thanks the stars you're okay!  You had us worried."

    "Can't kill me that easily," I whispered.  "You should know that by now."

    Luke chuckled.  "That's for sure.  At least you haven't changed your humor in the years you've been gone.  How do you feel?"

    "Like I almost died," I gave a small chuckle.  "Other than that, I feel fine.  Some slight pain but that's nothing new."

    "Hey," Luke's expression turned serious, "I noticed you had an insane amount of scars.  You get those from Hypixel?"

    "Yeah," I whispered while looking away.  Still not completely used to a bunch of people knowing about me going to Hypixel.

    "There's some people that stopped by today," Luke said.  I'm honestly thankful he changed the subject.  "They're still here actually.  Said they knew you and heard from Punz that you got hurt.  Said their names were Walli, Boomer, and Levi.  You know them?"

    "Yeah," I said, looking back at Luke with surprise, "yeah I know them."

    "You okay if I let them come see you?" Luke asked.

    "Yeah, that's alright," I said.  "Do you mind helping me sit up though.  I tried to earlier and couldn't."

    Luke chuckled and helped me sit up.  He said he'd send in my friends then left the room.  Not even two seconds later, then door slammed open and Walli, Boomer, and Levi raced to the side of the bed.

    "Purp!!" Walli exclaimed, "Are you okay?  What happened?  How did this happen?  Who did this?  When did this happen?"

    "Slow down Walli!"  I said.  "One question at a time.  Yes, I'm okay.  I got injured.  Who did it doesn't matter.  Not sure when it happened because I've been unconscious for a while."

    "You sure you're okay dude?" Levi asked.  All three of them had very concerned looks, which is to be expected.

    "Yes, I'm sure," I stated.
