Steve's POV
In my frozen state of shock I stood clung to Herobrine's side, staring wide eyed into the venomous yellow gaze who could only look at me filled with so much hate.
"You..." I whispered, taking a tentative step backwards and away from him as fear ate away at me, I half expected him to launch at me, yet a massive and painful pang sliced through my head as more memories filtered through my head. Mainly of the attack, how he punched and beat at my head with a couple others whose faces were blurred.
I could hear his haunted yelling that was muffled as I remember the blood pounding in my ears while I tried to protect myself.
"Steve!" I gave a gasp of air as Herobrine looked at me, worried out of his mind. I was light headed as I continue gasping for air, as if I was holding my breath as I tried hiding from him.
"I knew it...bringing you along with me was a bad idea, I'll have Ender return you while Notch and I finish up after he rounds the others up..." He said softly, pulling me into a hug to shelter me.
"I doubt returning him would be wise, Steve could very well question this man for his actions Brine" Notch spoke up.
"And let him fall into another panic attack?! I should kill him where he lays Notch..." Herobrine growled, letting me go to glare at the man who returned it with an equally impressive glare. I watched from over Herobrine's shoulder as the man stood with a struggle.
"Kill me then you bastard, you'd be doing me a favor!" He spat, not flinching as the Enderdragon dropped three others beside him before landing near us, in my state of shock I watched as the dragon took on a human form, wild black hair complemented his stunning purple eyes.
"Master, I believe Notch is right" He spoke softly, his gruff voice sending shivers down my spine.
"Oh not you to!" Herobrine roared, now facing Ender who bowed at the given. I only jumped with a slight fright as Herobrine punched a nearby pillar, a clear indent on the lower side before he whipped around to the four men who stood on the side opposing to us.
"I apologize if I speak out of line, however you cannot shelter him forever. He needs his own closure" Ender said, not flinching like I did when Herobrine punched him across the jaw.
"Brine! He did nothing to deserve that!" I found myself yelling at him, jumping and now hiding behind Notch when he slowly turned to glare at me this time. Yet Ender merely chuckled, rubbing softly at his jaw while he looked at me with mirth in his eyes.
"Master was being lenient, Notch I hope you can hold him steady for me. I will accept any punishment afterwards Master" I cocked my head in confusion, watching as Herobrine grew as confused as I was watching as Ender approached me and Notch shook his head with a sigh before going over to his brother.
"Ender..." Hearing his name he turned around and bowed slightly, before snapping his fingers and everyone besides from Herobrine and Notch were teleported in a room lined with quartz blocks and pillars. It was a massive corridor that I couldn't help but gaze in wonder, only seeming to panic when Ender stood besides me as the four males were in the center of the room.
"Should the four of you get out of line, I will not hold myself back from protecting Steve" Ender warned taking a dagger from the side of his pants.
"What about Herobrine? A-And Notch?" I asked. Jumping at the obvious thud from the side of the room, shaking the glowstone cluster above the center of the room.
"They are separated from us for a reason, now, I'm sure you have questions from them"
"Oh please! Let me beat him to it!" We all looked to the male with yellow eyes as he let out a cackle.
