We Meet Again... (A Minecraft Story; Sequel to Real Or Not?)

Chapter 10 - Your Choice

Becca's POV

WHAT?

Jin grabbed my free arm and Jess's arm, pulling us down the time-worn staircase.

We rushed out the front gate because we knew Ross had already left.

How had we not run into him on the way here???

I looked up at the top of the crane and saw a flash. Nick, Shark, and AK had taken position up there.

We waved at them frantically, hoping they would get the message. They did.

Just mere minutes later, they were in front of us, slightly out of breath. "JESS! So good to see you! Now, what's wrong?!"

Jin bit his lip. "Becca had gone to save Jess, and I went to Ross's lab to see if I could access some of his formulas. What I found changes everything. I didn't find formulas...I found elements and compounds to make explosives! We need to get back to the White House now! Ghetto, Cory, and Uni are in trouble!"

Nick's, AK's, and Shark's eyes went wide simultaneously. I would've laugh had our situation not been so dire.

We took one glance at the factory before running back to the White House. They...had to kill some zombies because we didn't have time for me to move them. It hurt everytime one fell to the ground, their eyes unseeing (...word...) now and forever.

When we arrived at the White House, everything was eerily quiet. No zombies, no voices, no...anything.

I growled softly as I pulled my M9 from its holster. Something was DEFINITELY off here.

We rushed into the White House, and Nick called out for the 3 lost group members. "COREY!? UNI?! GHETTO?!"

We listened quietly for anything.

Then, we heard some muffled voices coming from the left hallway. We ran down it, the voices getting slightly louder.

We stopped by an open metal door, the voices slightly less muffled.

"N..k!?"

"H..p!"

Nick looked at me and gestured towards the right door. He wanted me to open the right door.

Nick ran up to the left door as I ran up to the right. I heard both doors open simultaneously. Corey walked out of my door and General Uni walked out of the left door. They looked really shaken.

Before we could ask, Uni jumped right into the situation. "Ross. Ross came in and we were unprepared. He took our guns and locked us in these closets."

Nick nodded but still looked worried. "Where's Ghetto?"

Uni glanced at Corey, who just shrugged. "We don't know. Last I saw, he was in the library."

I was already out the door, not wanting to waste any time.

I skidded into the library and looked around frantically for anything out of place. I saw in the far corner of the library were 2 cabinets pushed against the small space by the bookshelf and wall. It looked like it was moved quite rapidly. I ran over to them and leaped, gaining a lot more air than I expected, landing neatly on top of the cabinets.

Adrenaline will do amazing things.

Haha. No kidding.

I glanced in the small space as I heard rapid footsteps enter the library.

Ghetto was in there, cuffed but conscious. He glanced up and smiled weakly. "Sup, Becca. Little help?"

I smirked. It was typical for Ghetto to joke around in tough situations.

I looked back at the gang and outright laughed at their expressions.

Jess spoke first. "How...in the world did you get up there, Becca?! It's, like, 7 feet tall here and 5 feet tall from the windowsill!"

I sat on the edge of the cabinet and slid off, landing on my feet like a cat.

Zombie quirks are the best quirks. Besides, you know, eating people or infecting them.

The only things I like about being a zombie is that I can talk to zombies and I don't feel pain.

I pulled out my book and quill and began writing.

'Adrenaline never lets me down. Ghetto is behind these cabinets, and he's cuffed. Can you help move them?'

They all read it and nodded, walking over to the cabinets and moving them.

I saw Nick pull a key from his backpack and run over to Ghetto, unlocking the cuffs.

"Ross?" Nick asked.

"Ross." Ghetto confirmed.

After we helped Ghetto out, we stood around discussing what we should do next.

If I were Ross, where would I go?

The lab. Sky's down there and so are a bunch of chemical stuff.

Oh, yeah.

'Guys, the lab!'

I showed it to them and they all facepalmed. "Well, duh. Of course he'd go to the lab!" Nick exclaimed.

Nick ran towards the lab. A few seconds later, we followed suit.

When we reached the quarantine glass, it was broken. Someone, Ross, broke the glass.

We didn't wait for any sign that it was safe, we just YOLOed it.

We ran through the small quarantine tube to end up in the lab. What we saw nearly made me throw up.

A freaking huge bomb sat at the opposite end of the room. Chemicals were spilled everywhere, and Sky was nowhere to be seen.

Well then.

Talk about 0 to 100 crazy fast.

Jin cautiously walked forwards to the bomb and examined it. He then ran back over to us. "I think I can disable it, but I think I need one other person who's good with wires to help."

We looked at AK, but he just shook his head. "We didn't deal with disarming bombs. Sorry."

I smiled and wrote in my book.

'I can.'

Jin read it and frowned. "Are you sure?"

I was about to write yes when someone touched my shoulder. "Becca, you can help me search for Sky and Ross. I'm sending AK, Shark, Ghetto, Corey, Uni, and Jess away from the White House."

I looked between Jin and Nick. How do I choose? If I stay with Jin, I might be able to disable the bomb. If I go with Nick, we could find Sky and Ross faster.

I sighed and opened my book to a fresh page.

'I'm gonna help....'

Go to Chapter 11A - Nick if you want to help Nick search for Sky and Ross.

Go to Chapter 11B - Jin if you want to help Jin disable the bomb.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nope. Not a cliffhanger. A choice.

This is like a choose your own adventure thing. I'll be making both chapters and publishing them at the same time, so they might not be out on time.

My God, you guys don't realize how much I've been wanting to do this!
