I will be doing one-shots/a belated Valentine's day celebration for the 20th chapter. 1st up, Jayden x Toboe as requested by Toboewolfsrain1 ! Wooohh! Elizabeth606 I have to consent to this as we have tortured her with Tobybrine for so long...
*Jayden's POV*
I couldn't keep my eyes away. My wolf ears twitched as I stared at the girl with the ragged brown hair staring out into the red mist of the Nether. She turned around and my gaze averted sharply. I hoped I wasn't blushing. I dared to look back up again and saw her looking back at me. I gave a small smile. That's it, I'm blushing, I thought as I felt heat ascending up my face. Recklessness pulsed through me. I ignored the redness climbing up my neck and walked towards her. Toboe looked slightly nervous and I stopped. She took a hesitant step forward and I continued. Despite her height advantage of a few inches, I felt confident.
"Everything okay?" I started. She glanced worriedly into the distance.
"I don't know. Herobrine-you know we had some...issues over the years-is bound to come back. I'm basically a beacon for him. It's only a matter of time before he finds us. He's going to kill you all and take me hostage."
"Don't worry, we'll fight him!" I said encouragingly, placing a hand on her shoulder.
"You-you don't understand, Jayden!" she burst out. "He's literally the strongest force, besides the Wither, that exists in all of Minecraftia! A wolf hybrid, a shapeshifter, an illusionist, an ice sorceress, an Ender Mage, a fire sorceress, a water sorcerer, an earth sorcerer, a squid hybrid, a blaze hybrid, a glitch girl, and an assassin-and whoever else-could never stand a chance against him! He's fierce, he's powerful, he has this flaring anger in him at all times!"
"How do you know we couldn't beat him?" I asked. It was meant to be a mere question, but she took it the wrong way.
"I lived with him for a year. He kidnapped me. He kissed me, Jayden! I know!" Tears had sprung to her eyes. "And the thing is, I don't even care. I just...I just want you all to be safe."
Her head drooped. I stood taller, my heart racing, and cupped her face in my hands.
"We all want you to be safe," I said, "and I most of all." I closed the gap between us and my lips met hers. I tugged her closer and, despite being stiff at first, she relented. My hands found their way into her hair and we kissed more fiercely. I smiled through the kiss, shuddering inwardly with pleasure.
My ears picked up a zap in the distance, but I ignored it until a white light illuminated us. She broke away and I freed my hands from her hair. I turned around and saw Herobrine. There was a broken expression on his face and I curled my hands into fists. I stepped in front of Toboe and my ears went back.
I growled and allowed my body to shift into its more wolflike form. I gained a few inches in height and sharper canines poked out from my teeth. My hands uncurled and gained a pawlike look. Claws sprouted where my fingernails used to be. "Jayden, what are you doing?" She snarled under her breath, trying to pull me back. I stepped away, shielding her.
"What have you done, Toboe?" Herobrine whispered. I snapped my teeth at him and he glared with those uncanny, white glowing eyes. I returned the stare with as much rage. "Give me the girl, and I'll let you all live."
She stepped forward, but I shoved her back. "Stay here. I'll take care of this," I mumbled. She tried to stop me, but Herobrine stepped forth.
"You challenge me, boy? Fine. She can sit here and watch you die." He laughed and I lunged, rage and adrenaline pulsing through my veins. I tackled him and sunk my claws into his shoulders, but he just cackled again. His body disappeared and I fell facefirst in the Netherrack with a grunt.
