~~Three days later~~

Steve and I walked through the woods by the town. No one had tried to steel the jewel or tried to kill us. The worst thing we had to fight were a few mobs. Steve sheathed his sword and stretched. "Herobrine, we've been walking for hours, don't you think it's time to go back?"

I felt a strange presence, like somethings watching me. I turned my head around to check behind me, "Yah," I said slowly. "I guess we can go back." I looked at Steve, and continued walking twords the town. "Will you stop with the Herobrine thing? It's getting old."

Steve smiled. "Nope, that's your new name." I shook my head and smiled.

"Fine." I said in defeat. I looked in front of me and saw a pair of eyes. I stopped. With my hand on the handel of my weapon, I looked around, waiting for someone, or thing, to jump out and attack. To my relief, it was the mayor's patrol.

"Hey Hero, Steve, what's up?" One of the guards asked. He was wearing his gray shirt, jeans, and black sneakers.

"Hey, Brandon, how's the patrol?" Steve asked. I sighed and released my blade.

"Nothing new, no one's been seen since you two showed up," he looked right at me and I looked away, "I guess they've been too scared for their lives to even mess with us." Steve smile grew, and my dissapeared. I knew that I was powerful, but did I really bring that much fear to people? "I'm just kidding Hero," I still hate that nickname. "but really, nothing new has happened."

Steve looked at me, he must have noticed something was bothering me. "Ok Brandon, Hero and I are gonna take another lap around the perimeter then we'll be back in town."

"Ok, see you there." Brandon walked away with his group, Steve and I continued on walking.

"Are we really walking the perimeter again? We've done it like five times." I said.

Steve rolled his eyes. "Don't exaggerate everything so much, we've only walked it twice. And yes, we're gonna do it again."

"Good, maybe this time around I can figure out what's been following me." I muttered under my breath.

After a while of walking, Steve stopped. "What's wrong Hero? You've been acting strange lately, like every time we go into the woods, you are constantly checking behind your back." I looked behind me, I could feel a dark presence somewhere around us. "See? This is what I mean, your jumpy at even the slightest sounds, and always on your guard. What's wrong?"

"Am I not allowed to be on guard?" I asked.

"You are, but you don't need to be so jumpy. What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm fine." We continued walking for a while, I had walked ahead and Steve kept his pace.

I looked around as I walked. What the hell has been following me? I can feel someone here, but where are they? I was so lost in my thoughts, I didn't hear Steve sneak up on me. "Boo." He said calmly, right next to my ear. I jumped and pulled out my sword pointing it at him. He stared at me with an 'I told you so' face.

"Don't do that." I hissed as I sheathed my weapon.

"Hero, I can tell somethings wrong. Just talk to me. Maybe I can help."
