Chapter 4
Sam's PoV
Someone jumps down from the trees wearing a dark purple jacket, anger in her eyes. She pulls out an iron sword glowing with what looks like Ender energy.
“Which one of you attacked her?” She starts unzipping her jacket.
Mike said Brine, but he didn't know! How could he?
“Aya, he didn't know it would bring him!” D yells, running in front of her. “If you hurt any of them, it won't end well! And Sam is trying to get someone back!” She points at me.
I raise my hand slightly, and Aya lowers her sword. “Uh, sorry D... You know... And the storm made me worry since you were out...” She looks down, and looks at the back of her jacket. “And uh, I need another jacket...”
D shakes her head. “How many times?”
“I know, are we going to go back?” Aya looks up.
“You go ahead and tell everyone we have fifteen people coming who are related to his return. And make sure they know it wasn't their fault.” D nods, and Aya runs off, disappearing behind a tree.
“Um, is Aya normal?” I ask.
D looks up awkwardly. “She made me promise not to talk about it to anyone she didn't trust, and she doesn't trust you yet.”
“Why?” Dust asks.
“She doesn't trust people until they prove they want to help.” D shrugs. “She had a couple incidents with people, now she is automatically defensive. Kind of a defense thing.”
I shrug. “Let's go then.”

Max's PoV
I wake up tied above a lava pit. Herobrine stands on the other side, smirking. I want to struggle, but I stay still.
“Frozen with fear, boy?” Herobrine asks.
“No, I'm hanging above lava, I'm not going to struggle to my death.” I growl.
“Smart boy, where's your Sam now?” He taunts.
I don't know if I want her to come or not now. I don't want to live without her, but if she had to live without me, it would break her.
“It would break her, that's why I chose you!” Herobrine walks off, and I look up.
Sam, when you come, be careful, please.
D's PoV
We get to the kingdom right around midnight, and the guard asks for proof that I'm from here. I pull my sword out, and he shakes his head. I don't have Wither bone this time, it looks normal. I raise my glasses, and whisper.
“I'm D, if you don't believe me, ask Aya.” The guard nods and opens the gate.
I put my glasses back down, and walk in, everyone following.
“You're back! The jacket?” Aya asks.
I gesture at the others with my head. “In a few, rooms for them?”
Aya nods, and points down a hallway. “Eight rooms, pairs of people.”
Sam swallows, and walks in the first room, shutting the door behind her. I look at Aya, and motion for her to follow.
“Before I give you the jacket, I want to talk to you about Sam.” I sigh.
“Why?” Aya looks at me.
“The one she wants to get back is her boyfriend Max. He was kidnapped by him. She freaks out when you bring up what happened two years ago or Wither bone tips.” I lower my voice to a whisper. “Two years ago, he was attacking her world. When she was using something, he kidnapped her and took her to a sort of half dimension. She was kept under for a period with Wither bone tipped arrows. Then she was almost killed, he used her life force to create a body for himself. She was able to destroy it though. He brought them all back somehow and kidnapped Max. She wants to get him back.”
Aya whistles. “Wow.” She stands up and pulls the broken jacket off, letting her wings unfurl. “The jacket?”
I laugh, and one appears. “Here, get it on fast.”
I hear I quiet gasp, and a door slamming shut. Aya turns around, her jacket zipped.
“Who. Chose. That. Room.” Aya asks stiffly.
“Don't hurt her!” I hold onto her hand, trying to calm her down.
“She. Saw. Before. I. Wanted. Her. To.” I can't see her eyes, but I'm sure they're changing.
“She has had problems too! I told you what happened, let her be!” I walk in front of her. “She needs to know people trust her, and she likes knowing things. You wouldn't kill her for that, would you?”
Aya calms down, and sighs. “I'm sorry, you know...”
I smile and knock on Sam's door.
Sam's PoV
Someone knocks on my door, and I open it. Aya and D are standing there. I look down.
“It's alright, just don’t tell the others.” Aya smiles at me.
“You heard everything?” D asks.
I nod, and look down. I shouldn't have listened in, I know, but if people talk about me or things that I shouldn't know, I try to find out.
Aya puts her hand on my back. “It's alright, just try to rest. We're going to leave tomorrow, probably.”
I nod, and they walk out of my room. A note falls from nowhere and lands next to me.
'Sam, Herobrine kidnapped me. He's going to kill me in three days. Save me please.'
I gasp. If I can't get there in three days, Max is going to die.
