Fixing The Scales (Ianite's Daughter)

Chapter 11

Lucy's POV

I woke up to the bright sun beating down on my skin and making it hot. I opened my eyes and squinted. Sitting up, I realized that I was leaning against a huge tree. In fact, it was so big that it couldn't have been natural. I stood up, brushing some leaves off of my shoulder and getting one out of my long hair. 

"What the..." I muttered as I saw that the clouds above me were red and blue. I rubbed my tired eyes and lent back against the wood of the tree before realizing what the red in the clouds meant. Dianite... my Dad.

I ran behind the tree to hide and saw a form in the distance, I couldn't quite make out who it was but ran towards it anyway, figuring that it couldn't be as dangerous as my Dad. The figure turned, presumably hearing my loud footsteps. As I came closer I saw the flash of Jordan's red sunglasses.

"Lucy? What's happening, you seem... off." He concluded, as I stopped in front of him to catch my breath.

"Dianite. It's Dianite, he's in the clouds with Mianite." I told him. 

His eyes widened and he turned running off and motioning for me to follow him. "Evita! Evita!" He called, running towards a house. I saw the mark of Dianite and stopped before I got there. Jordan didn't seem to notice, he just ran up and pounded on the door as hard as he could, almost breaking it down. Evita came running out and saw Jordan's worried face.

"Dianite's here, come on." Jordan explained, grabbing her wrist. The three of us ran as fast as we could to The End portal and hid down there. All three of us were out of breath as we jumped in, letting the coldness of the void surround us as we came to the other dimension. 

"We should be safe here." Jordan said, grabbing my wrist and pulling Evita and I into the Ianite temple Jordan and Evita had made yesterday. 

"Okay, now, what's going on?" Evita asked, taking her wrist out of Jordan's grasp. I copied her and explained what I saw. 

"So, they're most likely fighting with each other." Jordan summed up sitting down against one of the walls of Ianite's Temple.

"Dang it! That's probably causing my Mum pain!" Evita exclaimed, running out of the temple. I looked at Jordan and we had a silent agreement. We ran after her and all we could hear were endermen teleporting and the sound of our footsteps on the stone.

"Evita! Stop!" Jordan cried as Evita jumped through the portal. We followed her without a second thought, jumping through the portal and coming out the other side. We couldn't see Evita but ran through the stone corridor and made our way to the outside. 

I had a weird feeling and grabbing Jordan's hand, rushing him towards the Nether portal. He kept asking where we were going and why and I didn't answer him, I just ran to the Nether portal where I found Evita, nervously walking towards it.

"Evita!" I called, letting go of Jordan and grabbing her instead.

"What? How did you find me?" She inquired as I took her away from the portal and back to Jordan's house.

"You touched the Nether portal, I'm the daughter of Dianite, put two and two together." I said simply, as we reached Jordan's house. She sighed and nodded in understanding as we sat down on the couch.

"You're Dianite's daughter, and you're Ianite's daughter, does Mianite have a daughter?" Jordan asked curiously, leaning back and putting his hands behind his head in a relaxed position.

"Nope, just two nieces." I replied, popping the 'p' in the 'nope'.

"Oh." Jordan said, seeming to not have any more to say but wanting to show that he understood. We sat in silence, listening to the sounds of Mianite and Dianite fighting. I could see Evita squirming in her seat, probably itching to stop them from fighting.

Jordan looked at her comfortingly and she smiled back at him, before looking out the window at the blue and red clouds once again, her eyes full of worry as she listened intently. Suddenly, the noises stopped, leaving only a quiet echo behind. 

I listened with baited breath but there was nothing, just the sound of loud footsteps and a frantic knock on the door.
