The Truth Behind It All...

Chapter 11 ~ Hero

Trial day 5...

I must have blacked out out during the fall. I remember falling. I don't really remember why or how we fell, but I know we fell. I vaguely remember hitting the ground and passing out, unable to use my power to stop myself, or the others, from the impact. I don't even know where the others are or if they're alive.

I opened my eyes slowly and looked around. We were in the deepest part of the forest, smack dab in the middle. I slowly sat up from the position I was laying in and groaned. "Found him!" I heard Deadlox shout. I looked over and saw a blurry figure run twords me. I blinked a few times and everything came into focus again. "Are you ok? He asked helping me to my feet.

"Yah, yah I'm fine" I said standing. I looked around again. "Ummm...where are the others?"

"Umm... Entity and Seto are still out cold. But they're ok!"

"And Sky?"

"I'm over here!" Sky shouted as he ran tword us. He had cuts and bruses all over him, probably from the forest. "Ya know what's odd...my powers just...shut off during the fall."

"Yah...same here." I said. I lifted my hand and pointed my palm to the sky. A fireball formed as I had intended. I closed my hand again, stopping the flame. "That's probably why I couldn't teleport us to the ground....or anything else."

Deadlox looked at me. "Are you sure you're ok? You took a nasty spill."

"What do you mean?"

"Ummm....you don't remember?" Sky asked.

I shook my head. "No not really. Why? What happened?" I asked.

Sky hesitated. "You and Entity were attacked by the monsters as we fell....Entity managed to dodge most of the attack, but you were too focused on trying to help us to block the attacks. You were mostly conscious until you and Seto slammed into a tree and blacked out."

Deadlox nodded in agreement. "I managed to catch Seto and prevent land safely on the ground."

I nodded as I listened to their explanation. I teleported to Entity and Seto and looked over the mortal. His cloak was ripped, and the back had blood on it. Sky and Deadlox seemed to have healed him though. I looked at Entity who looked fine. I think at this point he's just asleep. I stood up and looked around. My shoulder started stinging a little, but I ignored it and walked over to Deadlox and Sky.

"YOU DID WHAT?!" Sky shouted.

"I didn't mean to! It must have fallen out of my pocket during the fall!"

"What? What did you do?" I asked walking over.

"Dead lost the map! We're stuck here!"

I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose. "You're both idiots. First off," I reached into my back pocket and pulled out the map I had been holding. "I have the map. Second, why do you need it?"

Sky stared at the map in shock. "How did you get it?!"

"I took it. Besides, I know where we are, we really don't need it."

Deadlox grabbed the map from my hand and put it away. "I don't trust you with that." I just rolled my eyes and shook my head.

Someone behind me grabbed my shoulder. I jumped and pinned them down with my dagger to their throat. "Woah bud, I don't think that's nessisary...." Entity said pointing to my blade.

I shook my head and let him up. "Sorry....just.....don't do that."

"Noted."

Deadlox nodded. "And that is why I don't trust you."

I narrowed my eyes and glaired at him. "I never asked you to trust me Deadlox. I don't trust any of you. So I don't care if you don't trust me." I hissed turning around and walking away.

"Where the Nether do you think you're going Brine?!" Entity shouted at me as I walked away.

"If you look at the map, it only yells us how to get to the portal, is says the jail is somewhere in the void. So that's where I'm going."

"What about us!? We're a team!" Sky shouted.

I chuckled to myself and turned around. "The funny thing about teams Sky, is you need to trust each other in order to get anything done." I turned around again and walked in the direction of the portal. We don't have enough time to be fighting with each other. The other leaders could be dead by now, or worse. They could still be alive...

I looked up through the branches of the tall trees. The moon was directly above me. "Another day gone to waste." I muttered bitterly. Please still be alive J...

Trial day 6

I walked all through the night, stopping once or twice to fight something or to explore a small structure for a weapon or two. I got a few more supplies and managed to get about half way to the portal. No one seemed to follow me yet. That or they're really good at hiding themselves. But as long as they don't get in my way, I don't care if they follow me.

"Back with the whole 'lone-wolf thing' are we Brine?"

I growled and kept walking. "What do you want Alpha?"

Alpha turned visable right next to me and walked. "Just dropped in to see how you're doing. You seem to be doing just fine, so I'll ta-"

I grabbed him by the throat and slammed him into the tree next to us. "I know who you are. I know what you've done. And if you think you can keep it hidden from us for much longer, you are gravely mistaken." I growled. "You're no Alpha. And you're certainly no leader." I dropped him and kept walking.

"But, you're not gonna tell the others...are you?" He asked.

I shook my head. "No, let them figure it out for themselves. I'm telling J, but the others will be on their own.

'Alpha' chuckled. "You're too smart for your own good Herobrine. And because of that...you'll get yourself killed."
