Breaking Apart

Chapter 6

G'day fellows, after two years I'm finally back. Things have changed now and my friends aren't really into Minecraft anymore. Sorry for leaving this book on a bit of a cliff hanger but I got busy. I'm now in my last year of high school and yeah, all that shit. But I will try my hardest to continue this, it just may be very long and slow updates. I hate doing authors notes but thought you guys deserved a bit of an explanation to where I'd pissed off to. Anyway, enjoy the chapter...

Em looked around her and stretched her wings. The colours of flames had grow stronger over the last couple of days. She flapped them a few times and felt herself become just a little lighter. she tried harder and harder, eventually lifting herself off of the ground. "Lachy!" she called. She got up a steady beat of wings and moved forward, excited. "Lachly, I-," his snarl made her pause and watch as he whipped around. There were two nubs either side of his neck with small dragon heads on the end of each, one had blue eyes and horns and the other had red eyes and horns. What shocked her the most though was Lachy's blue eyes. They weren't blue anymore, but a menacing, glowing yellow. His teeth were bared and horns were growing from the top of his head, hands with massive claw2s reaching out for her. His wings were outstretched making him look bigger, he was bigger, both of them were. "Lachy? It's me," she said in a small and frightened voice. He blinked a couple of times, shook his head and pupils slowly faded into the yellow glow of his eyes. "Em?" he asked. he was a little confused. she took a couple steps forward and hugged him. "You scared me," she said softly, "I thought you'd already changed." He sighed, "not yet." She stepped back and looked at him for a second. He leaned down to kiss her. She smiled into it then they both pulled away. "I can fly," she said, with a smile. His eyes lit up. "Now it's time to go find the others. they both quickly ran into their dirt hut and started packing everything they could find, including their beds. they then went outside and looked at each other for a moment before set off towards the east, were the sun was slowly tracking across the sky to set.

Emerald was startled to say the least as Reece pounced on her. "Haha, Reece!" a growl and she stopped dead and started shaking. "Reece?" her voice high pitched and nervous. Reece had massive canines and glowing red eyes. He took one more step over her and she squeaked. He then grabbed her shirt in his teeth and growled, drool getting all over her. "Reece! stop!" she squeaked. he lifted her off the ground and dropped her. He went to lift her again when Emerald clung to him. "It's me!" she yelled, "It's me." She felt his arm immediately go around her a squeeze her tight. A string of sorrys followed and she said it was all ok, she was ok. The stayed like that for a while, just hugging and being close, until Reece picked her up, gently this time, and took her to their little shelter, where they ate then slept. "We'll find them," Reece said, noticing she was continuously growing more worried. Her face hardened. "I know. I know we will!"

Goldy was shocked as Vikk teleported around her, picked up grass blocks and trapped her. Her inner minotaur kicked in slightly and she broke through those walls. She kept trying to catch up to him and tackle him down but he'd teleport away. She finally got a hit on him and he got mad. He came up to her and started hitting her, she'd lash out at him and get a few hits in. She tried tackling him again but to no avail. So she abruptly yells, "VIKK." He pauses and sort of glitches in and out of existence before his eyes cleared and he looked at her and her forming bruises. He quickly ran up to her and hugged her. If she hadn't seen his change in attitude he'd have gotten a fist to the face. She relaxed in his arms then pulled him in for a long kiss. "Don't you ever do that again!" she smirked. "I'll try," he said back just as smugly, pulled her in for another kiss.

"LOLLY!" Preston yelled as he dodged yet another whither skeleton. the only trait he could see of his girlfriend at the moment was how she was randomly throwing whither skulls everywhere. He deflected another with his sword and then it broke. He picked up a bottle he'd gotten from killed a witch and threw it at her. It hit her square in the face and she paused then dropped to the ground crying. Preston sprinted over to her and held her. "I miss my friends!" she wailed. "I miss playing hunger deans with them. I miss hanging out with them. I miss fighting alongside them. I miss seeing them!" Preston rocked her back a forwards. "I know. I know. I miss my friends too," he kissed her forehead. She jumped up suddenly. "We gotta move!" she said. She rushed over to there hut and started packing things. Soon both we're joking again and being random and stupid. They were about to leave when Preston grabbed her hand. "Don't do that again. You almost killed me." "Aw, I would never," she laughing but then got serious, "I'll try not too."

Rob woke up with a gasp. His shoulder was burning in pain. He groaned and suddenly heard the tell tale sound of a skeleton. He jumped up with his wooden sword and was about to kill it when he saw it was Ky. "Babe?" he asked. The familiar sound of the bow being fired was heard and he screamed as it struck his right thigh. "Ky!" he yelled. More of her skull was showing and her eye was missing, he was almost frozen in fear looking at her, but god damnit, that's his girlfriend still standing in front of him. He got up and hug her close to him, holding her arms by her sides. Her face was so blank, aside from her jaw. The skin had fallen away revealing a grinning skull. He closed his eyes and pressed them closer together. "Rob?" her voice started him a little bit. "Yeah, yeah!" he said tears in his eyes. She hugged him back. He kissed her forehead, as half her lips were gone. "I'm sorry," she whispered. He winced suddenly as the arrow in his shoulder shifted. "Shit!" she said. she quickly took her jacket off and ripped off the arms. "This is gonna hurt," she said. She tugged at the arrow but was missing parts of muscle from her transformation. H brushed her hands away and yanked it out himself. She tied on sleeve around the wound and did the same for his thigh. "Can you put this over my face," she then said, holding up the remains of her favourite jacket. Rob nodded and covered her face with it. "I thought I'd lost you," he said quietly. "You didn't. It's ok," she said back. They hugged for a while before going back to bed.
