"Why on earth would you expect me to do that?!" Herobrine growled. "Because, it is imperative that I travel there, and I may need some quick protection just incase." You state. 

"Why else would I have stolen such a large loot bag from those thieves?" You say. 'Good save'. Herobrine seemed to angry at that moment to hear thoughts. "You do realize that after three wishes, that lamp and I will be rocketed to some other magic dungeon and you will be stuck with nothing but me saving your *ss three times!" He growled. 

"I know, but me getting there is extremely important so let's just pack up and go." You stated a-mater-o-factly. He just grunted as you grabbed the loot bag and both left the room. 

You both walked out onto the street and you stopped. "Wait won't it be weird if you go around with your...uh." You didn't know how to put it without being rude. 

"My eyes look normal to bystanders." He grunted, summoning a red and gold silk head rap that draped over his bare shoulders and covered his head, making him look more  ominous that he already did. 

You began to walk, loot bag held close to you. You had no idea where to begin on your journey to the massive city of Tunsted. Maybe a map was a good start. 

"What are you doing?" Herobrine growled impatiently as you looked around at the pop up shops. "Finding a map, duh." You say, your eyes darting at every booth to try and find one. 

"I'll need several things before we start the journey. A map for starters, a new bag, and food." You say. You glanced over at another booth and spotted a really nice looking bag. It was large enough to carry a lot, but not to big to overwhelm you. 

"You do realize I'm not carrying anything you get." Herobrine said. "Sure that's fine, I just need you to come with." You say and began the bargaining for the bag. 

"How much for the bag?" You stated strongly. "Ooh, I see you've taken a liking to this bag, this bag is very special you see." Herobrine scoffed and turned his head, eyeing the streets. 

The sales man raised an eyebrow at him for a moment. "Is it now? Looks to me that the material isn't all it's cracked up to be. That's woven is it not?" You ask with a snooty tone.  

The sellers attention went back to you. "Why yes it izz. Two hundred thread count made of the strongest fabric I have to offer I'll take ten gold coins for it or anything of equal value. Your friend looks like he can afford it no problem." The seller chuckles. 

"Ha! You expect me to believe that thing is worth ten gold coins? Honestly a 200 thread count is nothing. Not to mention that, that material is a wool straw blend am I correct?!" You pointed your finger accusingly. 

For a scrappy and rather dirty street rat you knew your stuff. Herobrine thought it was odd that you did. 

The sales man began to stutter. "W..well you see the weave is tight a..and-" "Enough! Five golden coins, take it or leave it. I'm sure there are other sellers here with higher quality bags for the same price! Good day!" You went to leave. 

"Wait! Okay fine you win! Five golden coins!" The seller cries desperately. You smirk triumphantly. You place the coins down and receive the bag. "Thanks." You say and turn on your heal for your next items. 

You got the map and some added medical supplies, now to food, and water. "Hey, is there anything you want to eat on the journey? You look up at Herobrine and ask. He looks at you and scoffs. "Beings like me don't need food." He growled. 

"Suit yourself the ." You shrug and began picking out breads, fruits, and non spoilable meats. Even some sweet and salty pretzel bread. 

((That's some good sh*t let me tell you. Seriously if you guys ever go to a farmers market or a bakery, get some pretzel bread. It's amazing. Heat it up and add nacho cheese if you really want a flavor kick XD))

"I believe that's it." You say, looking at the map, your bag full of treasure and food. "What about new clothes? You smell like a pig pen. When is the last time you showered?!" Herobrine grumbled out. 

You froze for a moment, considering it. "Oh yeah, never really thought about that." You say, a finger to your chin as you look up in thought. 

"Seriously?!" 

"Calm down! I've lived on the streets for a long time, my body is numb to dirt at this point. I suppose I could get new clothes." You say waving your hand up and down. 

You began to look around the shops for new clothes. You picked out some gypsy pants with a  small side skirt attached to it, a loose fitting top, and a head scarf, all of which were an off white cream color with a hint of gold threading. 

You bought extra clothes as well along with some soap for whenever you found a place to wash up. You packed it all away in your bag. "Alright, now I think that's everything!" You say. 

"There she is! And that guy!" You hear a loud growling response from just a ways ahead. Your head snaps in that direction, as does Herobrine's. "I'm not taking part in this." Herobrine says. 

"Sh*t, then we need to move." You say and began sprinting through the crowd. Even when carrying the bag on your back you were fast. You took a quick glance behind you to see that there were ten thieves after you two. 

You maneuvered quickly around each corner trying to figure a way to escape the chase. 

"Gotcha!" A thief sprung out at you swinging his sword at you. Herobrine got out of the way but you ended up getting cut across the torso, tearing your already ragged shirt a bit. 

You turned and sprinted in the other direction as fast as you could you pushed through the crowd and made a sharp turn to hide behind a large trash bin, dragging Herobrine down with you. 

He was about to push you off and protest but you covered his mouth. He glared at you and snarled but you just waited and watch over your shoulder silently. 

The band of thieves sprinted by, you released a breath you didn't know you were holding and stood up. "Come on, we lost them, for now." You say quietly as you both quickly made your way to the edge of town and out into the desert. 

Once you were far enough a away you stopped and turned to Herobrine. "What the heck was that?! Why didn't you protect me from that sword guy?!" You exclaimed. 

Herobrine glared at you. "It is none of my concern what happens to you. I am only here to grant you three wishes! I am only bound to you through that! It's not my responsibility to keep you alive or protect you. I serve one purpose then I leave!" He barked. 

You huffed and turned on your heel, continuing on quickly and pulling out the map to burry your face into. 

This was going to be a long adventure.
