The Runaway (A Herobrine Story)

Stronger

Creeps's POV

"Herobrine, what the nether did you say to Max?" I asked.

I was staring out the window at a exhausted looking Max. Whenever I went out there to see if she was OK she just smiled and nodded but something was clearly bothering her.

Herobrine on the other hand is on the couch, having spent the night on there because he was too damn lazy to teleport home.

"Simple, she didn't know how to fight so I taught her. She did it pretty well, well, other then the fact she's weak as a little kid." He answered, not bothering to look. "Why?"

"She's been out there since this morning, hasn't said a word nor has she eaten."

"And she is doing that why?" He asked, getting up this time. He looked out the window and stared at her.

"I don't know, like I said, she hasn't spoken a word."

He stared at her a few more minutes then teleported away. Most likely went home, I doubt he cares about anyone but himself. I sighed and went to the kitchen to make something to eat.

Maxine's POV

Herobrine teleported beside me as I walked through the forest, bothered at how they were staring at me. I ignored his presence for a few minutes.

"Why do you keep training?"

No response.

"Have you even eaten?"

Nope.

"Damn it, answer me woman!"

I could see he was getting frustrated. It wasn't hard to see, but I won't forgive him for calling me weak. He grabbed my wrist tightly, it almost felt like it was going to break, and held it up so I'd stop walking. I kept my head down.

"Don't ignore me, Maxine." He growled. "I hate being ignored."

"I'm not weak." I mumbled. He glared at me, raising an eyebrow.

"What was-

"IM NOT WEAK!" I yelled.

He was taken back by this, letting go of my most likely sprained wrist. I didn't even flinch from the pain, I won't show him my weak side again.

"I've been called that since I was little, I was told I was too weak to even survive out here! Well they were clearly right seeing as I almost died on the first day!" I yelled. "I'm done with being called weak and if me constantly training to get stronger convinces you then I will."

My hands were in tight fists as tears threatened to spill from the pain in my wrist. He stood there, shocked that I, the girl who was terrified and shy when they found her, could manage this much anger. I glared at him then turned to walk off.

"One way or another I'll show you I'm strong. I'll show everyone." I said, then walked away.

Herobrine's POV

She walked out of sight without another word. I have to say out of all the things I could imagine her saying none of them was that and her even yelling seemed out of place. She looked so angry and sad that she looked completely different.

I teleported back to their house and decided against telling Creeps, not just so I didn't get my ass kicked, but because I doubt Maxine wants them knowing.

"I'm moving in." I stated when she popped her head in from the kitchen.

"Why?" She asked, blowing pink hair from her face.

"I can only handle so much of those idiots, you three just so happen to be the smarter idiots."

"Aw, does someone miss us?" She smirked. I glared as an answer and she laughed, retreating back to her food hunt.

Speaking of which.

I went to the kitchen and stole two apples, teleporting away before Bones, who I stole them from, caught me. I saw Max sitting on a wood block, thinking about something. She glanced at me them looked down again.

I rolled my eyes and tossed the apple to her as I leaned on the tree across from her. I did find out the other day that she has creepy good reflexes. She caught it with her left hand, but her eyes filled with pain although she said nothing.

"Your wrist hurts doesn't it?" I asked and she didn't say or do anything, till she finally nodded. "How-" I cut myself off. That was the wrist I grabbed her by, did I really hold it that roughly?

I went over and removed the apple from her hand. Her eyes looked like she was ready to cry as she glanced over to me quickly then turned the other way. I sighed.

"Don't hide this stuff." I said. I picked her up bride style and teleported us to the house. The others watched as I took out some bandage from one of the chests and wrapped up her wrist.
