Herobrine's Children

The Ugly Truth and Forgiveness

The ones sitting at the table had no idea where Allison and Jackson had been taken. The majority of the potion had worn off, but some still found themselves unable to move a certain limb. Steve was hopping around the room, as his one leg was still unresponsive, looking like some sort of weird frog, frantically looking for some sort of bug to eat. Jacklyn glanced at Mason, who shrugged and looked over at Sky. Sky rolled his eyes before standing up, throwing a gloved fist on the table. Steve stopped, looking up and staring at Sky with a confused look.

"Steve, stop. I'm going to go send out a search party. Kids, come with me," he instructed before walking off. Mason stood up and followed his dad, but the other stayed seated. He sighed and went to open the door, when it slammed open, knocking him over and making a chair topple over. He put a hand to his head, where he knew a lump was going to be. He groaned, looking towards the door to see who had nearly knocked him unconscious. Mia stood at the door, doubled over panting, her dark hair sticking to the sides of her face from sweat.

"Herobrine... Alli and Jack... Ellie... Truth..." She said quickly. Steve looked over with a scared look on his face. He kind of resembled a deer in headlights. Mia straightened, getting her breath back, glaring daggers at Steve. "Its your fault that they were kidnapped, those three. You realize that, right?" She hissed, getting closer to Steve. He was backing away, not meeting her eyes.

"I know what you did! We could have avoided all of this if you just told them the truth!" She was raising her voice, getting angrier and angrier. "Why? You're an idiot, Steve. Tell them! Tell them all the truth! Tell them what you did!" She nearly screamed at him, her hands clenched in tight fists. Steve bit his lip so hard that he noticed the taste of metal touch his tongue. Mia kept staring at him as if she was Medusa, wanting to turn him to stone.

"Tell us what?" Seto voiced, standing up. The others exchanged looks before standing up as well. "Tell us what?" Seto repeated, his time more forcefully.

"I... Allison and Jackson aren't actually my children..." He started. Notch just looked at Steve, not showing any emotion what so ever. Alesa gasped, Reed looked like he was about to faint and was caught by Ginny when he fell, the other adults looked a mix between angry and disappointed, and the other kids were just staring in shock, not knowing what to say. Sky walked in at that moment.

"Hey, what did I miss?" He asked casually. He then noticed Steve, who had started to cry into his hands. "Uh..."

"I'm sorry..." Steve whispered. "Everything's my fault..." Alesa walked over, and when she placed her hand on his back he looked up at her.

"It's okay, Steve. We'll find a way to fix everything." Steve smiled at her. Mason came over and slung his arm around Mia's shoulder, helping her to relax.

Mia smiled a tad, putting her hand out and helping Steve to his feet. "All I wanted was the truth, and now that you've said it, how about we go kick my dad's ass for doing whatever he did to you guys and Ellie, and let's go save my siblings."

Allison and Jackson were seated in a large Netherbrick castle, located in the Nether, both on beanbag chairs. Now, it wouldn't've been so bad had they not been in the dungeon. Zombie pigmen guards patrolled around the door, and the only thing to entertain themselves with was an old deck of cards. Jackson got up and punched the wall repeatedly, making his knuckles bleed. Allison jumped up and grabbed his hand before he broke his hand.

"Okay, you can stop now. Somehow everyone's going to find a way to get us out of here, so don't over react. I promise," Allison smiled at him. To her surprise, he wrapped her in a hug.

"If they do find an escape plan, but something goes wrong, I want you to leave with them. You'll be safe if you escape, and that's my main priority." She was taken by surprise at his statement.
