From The Other Side Of The Screen

chapter five: Herobrine

I walked through fallen leaves, and sticks. I clutched a rifle in my left hand. Trees stood high above me.

"It's over for you, Markus." I muttered.

The trees cleared into a large yard, which consisted of an enormous mansion, and a nice GMC truck. It shocked me when I realized where I was, and what was going on. Two guys in their early thirties were walking to the mansion. It was myself, and Notch.

"You finally pay for pay for what you did," I said, as I raised my rifle.

I closed an eye, and aimed for Notch. I struggled to get a clear shot because Notch kept moving. Eventually, I had to take the shot. A loud boom erupted from the rifle. I watched, as the bullet whizzed passed notch and struck me in the back. I fell to the ground. And Notch knelt down next to me. I could only hear his first 'no' from where I was standing. Notch faced me, and stood, as a scowl stretched across his face.

"What do you have against my brother?" Notch yelled at me.

"I was aiming for you, stupid." I yelled back.

Notch started to walk toward me.

"No duh, your such a baby. That was five years ago." He responded.

"You had no right to steal my game idea," I said.

"I only did it because I thought it was a good idea, and you weren't even going to become a designer." Notch explained.

"Well, I was, eventually." I responded.

"Yeah, and you took too long." He said.

At this point we were ten feet away from each other.

"Take one more step, and I shoot." I warned him

"I don't have to take anymore steps," Notch told me.

I saw a hand grab each of my shoulders. I turned, to see two of Notch's video game designing buddies. One of them took the gun out of my hand.

"It's your choice Greg, live or die." Notch said.

"I chose to live," I replied.

"Then get out of here, and never come back." Notch told me.

His buddies let go of me, and I fled. As I ran, I glanced back at my corpse. Some blood had stained the ground around me. My eyes peeled open.

"No! It can't be," I yelled into light coming from the rising sun.

I sat there on my bed. I couldn't believe that Notch stole that guy's idea. I thought that he always came up with his own ideas.

That was the day after I attacked the player. One of the effects of this second life, is that all of my dreams are flashbacks from my first life. Sometimes, it can be things that I didn't see in my first life. But I always see the dream out of someone's eyes. It could my eyes, or someone else's.

After having that dream, I recalled a different dream that I had had last week. I dreamed it from Notch's eyes. It showed him meeting this guy in a restaurant. They began to talk about what their dream job was. Both of them said that they wanted to be a video game designer. Then, the guy told Notch about a game idea that he had. The guy left shortly after that, and the dream ended. I now realized that it was when Notch and that Greg guy met.

I still can't believe it, two days later. But how can I not. My dreams don't lie.

"Brine, get out here, I don't have all day!" Entity 303 yelled from the entrance of my cave.

"Fine, just give me a minute." I responded.

303 rolled his eyes, turned and flew down into the woods. Ever since I had that dream, I can't stop thinking about Notch. Not just about him stealing that guy's idea, but about how much I wanted to see him again. I wasn't mad at him for it, because I knew that Greg was a bad guy. He was actually going to kill Notch for stealing his idea.

I got out of bed, and walked over to the couch. I sat down, and picked up the picture of Notch.

"Someday, I'll find you, Notch. Weather it'll be in minecraft, in the afterlife, or in some other life, I'll find you." I said aloud.

I put the picture down, and grabbed my sword before leaving. Then, I flew down to the woods, looking for 303. I felt a sword strike me in the back. I had forgotten that entity 303 has the power of invisibility. I jumped in a three sixty, and used mind control on him. I made him become visible, then I tried to make him hit himself in the face with his sword. But by now, 303 knew how to regain control of his mind. He tried bring the sword back down. By now, we were each controlling about half of his mind.

After about five seconds, he regained control, and used lazer vison on me. I ran in a circle around him, and tried to block it with my sword. I used my other hand to blast fireballs at him. They stuck him right in the chest, and he flew back about five feet. But he managed to stay on his feet. 303 put his hand to the sky, and brought it down until it was pointing at me. I didn't have enough time to dodge it, and the next second, I was being struck by lightning.

When the lightning stopped, entity 303 ran forward and swung his sword. I blocked it with my own sword. Both of us continued to swing. I reached into my pocket, and pulled out a potion of harming. Then, I threw it at 303. He staggered backwards, and fell onto the ground.

"Well, well, well." I said as I came in for the kill.

But I wasn't able to get close enough. I felt something run into me from behind. Me and the thing fell to the ground.
