The Way It Should Be (a skylox Fanfiction)

Chapter 3: Sky's POV

   "Owww, why did I forget my armor?" Sky cringed at the pain that shot through his stomach as he limped towards the living room.

   Sky also had a large cut on his right leg. He sat down on the couch and grabbed what was left of the cooked pork chops in his inventory. Deadlox has been gone for 5 hours now, he wasn't going to get back by dark.

   As he munched on the pork chops, his health went up in small increments.

   "Good, health is 100% full." Sky told himself.

   But even though his health was all the way up, he could still feel the stomach pains and his sore leg.

   Where the hell is Deadlox?  Sky wondered.

   He slowly got up and off the couch, and limped towards the window. It wasn't night just yet, but in just an hour, mobs will begin to spawn. Sky didnt want Deadlox to be out there in the dark, with zombies and skeletons chasing him. Sky thought of going out there to find Deadlox, but he remembered the promise he made to him about staying and getting better.

   But I'm all better. He thought. If I wear my armor, I could find him.

   Deadlox was more important than his own health. If Deadlox was to ever get hurt, or even die, Sky could never forgive himself.

   A full set of budder armor, two budder swords, a map, and torches. He was ready. He opened the door and set out to find his lost friend.

   Sky turned around and took a quick look at his humble home, hoping that it wouldn't be his last time seeing it.

~Deadlox POV~

   It got colder outside, and his armor only had a quarter of its durability left. It was getting even darker outside and it would only be a small amount of time before mobs could spawn. He ran up to a couple of the trees and started to chop em' down with his fists, since he had nothing else on him. With a stack of wood now in his inventory, Deadlox made them into wooden planks, and built a small hut.

   Deadlox was a bit nervous, could he survive the night, or would the mobs prevent him from succeeding?

   "Crap, this was a bad idea." He breathed out.

   At least he had his swords, and his armor.

~Sky's POV~

   With a map in hand and a budder sword in the inventory, Sky set out on his journey determined to get to his buddy! My gawd Ty! Where could you be?
   He looked down at the map and started to take the route to Jerome and Mitch's house, Deadlox would be somewhere on this trail.

   Ty was out here alone, and it was Sky's fault.

   If I wasn't so stupid and went outside at night, then I wouldn't have gotten hurt, and Ty wouldn't have to be taking this journey alone.
   Sky continued to walk alone, and sped up his pace when he heard a faint Zombie grunt in the distance.

   But it was for a good cause. Sky told himself.

   The only reason Sky was out there was for Deadlox.

   It started out that Deadlox needed more string, so Sky went outside to kill off spiders and surprise his friend. He killed off a few spiders here and there, but it wasn't enough. He waited even longer, and it got darker. Thats when the mobs began spawning even more.

   Everything got out of hand, and Deadlox was there to aid him. The last thing he remembered was a creeper coming up behind him, and everything going black.

   He saved my life, Sky thought. And I never even got a chance to give him the string.

   Sky became more and more aware of his surroundings, zombies, skeletons, spiders, the whole package.

   But he wasn't about to let the whole, "almost dying" scene play again. So instead of fighting the mobs, he ran before they could see him.

   Damn, it hurts to flee from such vulnerable mobs! Sky then chuckled to himself.

  

*An hour or so later*

   It was almost pitch black outside, and Sky had a couple (okay, mabey a lot) of close calls with some creepers and zombies. But its worth it if it means finding Ty.

   Sky could remember the very moment he opened his eyes after being hurt, and seeing Deadlox in the room. With his white tee and signature black and green headphones, Ty was the only person Sky actually liked seeing in his room when he woke up.

   His heart fluttered.

And Ty was the only guy he had a crush on.
