Survive the capture

Chapter 15 ~ Torture

~Ethoslab's POV~

"... For their fandom?" Herobrine looked Xin. Uh oh... I could see her hands shaking, but she put up a strong front.

"To some extent," she spoke, showing no fear in her voice. "If you want to hurt me why not you hurry. Don't you have something better to do than pick on people?" Is she crazy? Who would let herself get hurt for someone else?

"Are you f***ing insane?" Pause, who was opposite her, hissed. She shook her head and told him to shut his mouth. "But you are-"

"Hush!" Xin interrupted Pause. "What are you going to so Herobrine? Come at me if you dare." Her voice became low at the last part as if challenging him. Her hands were trembling even harder now and I could see a tinge of nervousness on her face. Herobrine was taken aback by her bravery and hostility, so was I, to be honest, but he did not let his shock show.

He started laughing like a madman. "Oh you really are a brave soul aren't you? Well then, you shall have your way." A diamond sword appeared in his hands. He smiled and brought the sword towards her arm in a slow, smooth motion.

Once the blade has made contact with her skin, he ran the blade down it, leaving a long cut on the blocky arm. A little bit of blood slowly escaped it but it was not too bad, a golden apple would fix it. However, he was not done. He brought the blade down the other arm, making her shut her eyes in pain. I wanted to look away, but I could not. There was something holding it there, a spell probably cast so that we had to stare at Xin's torture. "Stop it already!" I heard Chad yell. Xin's eyes fluttered open and gave him a glare, telling him to keep quiet. He sends her a glare and continues, "Leave us alone! Shoo!"

"Shut up Chad!" Xin snapped. Herobrine just chuckled and stabbed her arm a little, pulling out a bloody tipped sword. She yelped in pain and shock before regaining her composure.

"How strong. Shall we test the limits?" Herobrine smirked. "How touching to see you all standing up for this poor girl you barely know, meeting her just a few months ago. How time flies." He plunged the swords in her shoulder, this time deeper than on her arm. A single tear fell from her face as she bowed her head, trying to cover up. Wow. She really was brave. Yet, even the most courageous will break down at some point.

"Are you done?" this time, a quiet, more timid Mykol asked. Even with the thick amount of fear in his voice, his tone still carried a bit of anger and defensiveness.

Herobrine pretended to be deep in thought, replying after a few seconds, "Uh... How about no?" He twisted his sword and Xin's body stiffened. Her originally teal shirt was now soaked in her own blood, covering almost every inch of her shirt. Herobrine pulled the sword out as Xin's body slumped back into her original position, eyes still on the floor. "Any other words?" He questioned. No one wanted to speak, afraid that he would do more harm to the poor bleeding girl.

"I have something to say," a shaky voice came out of a mouth. My eyes widened in shock. What on earth does Xin think she is saying? Does she want to get killed? "I want to say the you are an idiotic bastard who happens to be a heartless freak. You are the worst person I have ever met in my entire life, a sick butthole whose brain is not thinking straight, if you even have one to begin with, and you deserve to die." She said slowly, making sure he could hear every word, loud and clear. I was flabbergasted. Her voice was hostile, yet pained.

"Well then, should go now. But not before this," Herobrine stabbed her in the leg this time such that the sword went through it before pulling it out. "Ta ta!" He waved, disappearing in a cloud of black. The moment we were freed, most of us rush forward to help her, a few still recovering from the shock. I was supporting her back, watching the blood gush out of her leg like there is no tomorrow. her shoulder still had the red liquid spilling out of it continuously while a bit more blood seeped through the cuts. Jsano came with some wool, putting it around her so that her blood soaks up. Various people were shouting different commands, making the area chaotic. "Guys, she's losing consciousness!" Chad warned, checking for a pulse.
