The Other World (Sequel to The Life of Herobrine's Daughter)

Controlled

Steve's POV

"Steve! What the Nether are you doing!?!" Nightmare yelled running over to me. I stood before her, breathing heavily. I had been controlled once before, and that was dreadful. But this time I had killed someone!

"I-I don't know! I went for a walk and then my body was just, taken over! I swear I couldn't control what I was doing!" I said truthfully, still panting.

"I believe you. You didn't look like yourself, you were more, stiff, robotic, emotionless." She said with concern.

"N-Nightmare. I just, killed someone!" I said panicking.

"C-come on. We should get back to the village, we can figure this out in the morning." She said sounding very worried and a little, cautious. This unsettled me.

Nightmare's POV

I woke up in my bed, having barely slept at all last night. I knew Steve didn't do that on purpose, but I was still the slightest bit cautious. If he hadn't been in control, who was? I got up and went outside into the village. It was awesome having a nether portal inside your own overworld house. Now I could switch between worlds easily.

"Morning." I said to Steve when we met up in the village square.

"Morning." He replied sleepily.

"Has anything else happened since then?"

"Not really, I just couldn't get to sleep last night."

"Ok. Come'on, we should go to the town hall." I said and he nodded. We started walking to the town hall when Flair came running up to us.

"Nightmare! Steve! My, my powers! They're gone!" She said panicky.

"W-what? How? When?" Steve said worriedly.

"I dunno! I just woke up and couldn't use my powers!" She panicked and she looked very freaked out, so was I.

"Ok. I dunno what to do. Maybe just go back home, and wait." Steve suggested. Flair nodded and ran off.

"Weird..." I said quietly.

We walked over to the hall and went up to the mayor, Lancelot. I'm the heir to the throne for the mobs and Steve for the players, but because we're both under aged, Lancelot is filling both our places. Me and Steve help him, but we still can't be proper rulers yet. This was a relief for me, I had been ruler before without choice when- I shrugged off the thought. The important thing right now was to figure out was going on.

"Hello Nightmare and Steve! I needed to talk to you." He said turning to face us. Me and Steve exchanged glances before turning back to him.

"A few players, seem to be becoming controlled. A few came in earlier saying they had just been taken control of and how they had no idea what was going on." His face grew grim.

"That happened to me as well." Steve said, Lancelot raised an eyebrow(if possible).

"Flair also said that she lost her powers, I'm guessing over night." I piped up.

"Do you think the two circumstances are tied?" Lancelot asked us, we nodded.

"I don't know. I honestly don't. You should just go home and rest. We'll figure this out."

"Hopefully." I murmured and walked out.

"Ill see ya around." I said to Steve and we parted.

I walked aimlessly through the village, deep in thought. Why was this happening? Why now?! We had finally found peace and happiness! Why? Why? Why?! And, how?! I suddenly snapped back into reality when I heard screams. I whipped around to see zombies, skeletons, spiders, and a couple of endermen attacking people! I raced over to them.

"What are you doing!?!" I yelled, everyone stopped for a moment, then resumed whatever they were doing.

"Stop! Stop! STOP!!" I yelled at some zombies. They looked at me for a moment. In their eyes I could see grief and surprise. But their bodies showed fierce anger and longing, a longing to kill. I rushed forward to one of them and grabbed their arm. I tried to pull them away from a young boy cowering in a corner. The zombie shrugged me off and crept closer to him.

"Run!" I yelled to the boy not knowing what else to do. He didn't move. I instead grabbed the boy's arm and flew up into the air, or at least I tried to. I managed to go a few feet into the air, but crashed back down again. So I ran through the village with him. We kept going until we were out of the village and with the rest of the evacuated players. I let the boy go and he ran over to his parents. I looked up to see many angry faces staring at me.

"What?!" I asked angry and surprised. I had just saved someone's life! Why were they angry?

"You did this!" Someone piped up and there were many murmurs in the crowd.

"What!?!" I half yelled.

"Yeah! You always hated us!" Some other people shouted. I backed away slowly with my hands in the air like someone would if they were surrendering to the police.

"No! I swear I had nothing to do with this!!" I said panicking a bit. The angry mob of people began to crowd a circle around me. Steve quickly ran out of the crowd and over to me, stopping them.

"She didn't do it! I know she didn't!" He yelled angrily at them. I smiled to myself. At least he believed me.

"Look. Some weird stuff has been happening lately. But don't panic! We will get everything under control!" Steve told everyone. They gradually walked off. But they couldn't really go anywhere, the hostile mobs were still, well, hostile. (Heh)

I knew this wasn't the last of weird stuff happening. It's just a good thing Steve's popular among people, and they'll listen to him for awhile. But this was definitely bad.
