Order of the Puppets (A MCSM fanfic)

~Chapter One~

The sun shone softly through Jesse's bedroom window, the light falling on her face.

The door opened, Lukas poking his head through.

"Uh... Jesse?"

Jesse turned her gaze from her book, tears in her eyes.

"What?" Croaked Jesse, thinking about her missing friends.

"She's... She's gone, too.. Olivia's gone, too..."

Lukas let this information sink in, remembering six months ago when Axel disappeared first.

Then Petra, three months ago

And now, Olivia.

They stood in awkward silence, thinking about what could possibly happen next.

(Lukas's POV)

Our friends... They're gone...

I looked at Jesse, her face wiped of any emotions.
She wasn't handling this too well...

I really hope this isn't my fault...

Our friends just... Disappeared...

"Jesse... I know you're-"

"Upset?!" She growled. "Angry?! I'm freaking out over my friends! They're... They're gone..."

"That's not true, Jesse.." I sighed, opening the door the rest of the way to walk inside. "They may still be out there..."

"But it's highly unlikely..." Huffed Jesse, pulling a fluffy blanket around her.

"But that doesn't mean-"

"JUST GO." She snarled, throwing a book at my face.

It hit me, causing my nose to bleed.

I looked at her, seeing the shock etched on her face.

"Fine." I muttered, wiping blood from my face. "I'll go."

I walked towards the wooden door, the tinted blue light falling on the white walls.

Even though I like Jesse... It doesn't mean she can't be unreasonable at times.

...

I was sitting in my room, reading.

The redstone lamp Olivia gave me glowing softly on the blank pages of my book.

It was eerily quiet, slightly scaring me.

Suddenly, I felt a hand on my shoulder.

Before I could see who it was, I was blindfolded.

"JESSE!" I screamed, scared of what would happen next.

(Jesse's POV)

Axel... Petra... And now, Olivia.

Is somebody kidnapping us?

If so, who?

I sat in the library, the soft glow from the torches illuminating the dark room.
