Bestowed (A Hermitcraft Fanfic)

Part 4

Here is another messed up part for you all to read

Recap:

Oh no. No. No. No. It can't be...

Stress!? Stress!! Help! Please!...

Lay Bdubs down on the magenta bed...

-------------------------------------------

Stress opens up the chat and informs the other Hermits.

<Stressmonster101> Everyone, Doc found Bdubs severely injured and unconscious on the jungle floor near Scar's base. Bdubs and Doc are with me now. I don't know if Bdubs will make it. My advice is to come to my base to say your what might be your final goodbyes.

Panic erupts in the chat. Doc reads Stress' message but doesn't respond. All that matters to him at the moment is Bdubs.

<Xisuma> What?! I'm coming now
<Keralis>No!! Bubbles!! Hang in there!
<Scar> Bdubs! I'm on my way. Please live

The chat continues to fill with alarmed messages. All the Hermits, no matter how close they were to Bdubs, were on their way to say farewell to a dear friend.

Stress enters the room with healing potions in her hands ready for her to inject into Bdubs as he won't be able to drink the potions as he is still unconscious.

"I've told the others," Stress softly told Doc as she walked into the room with the healing potions in her arms.

"I know," Doc replied, "Do you really think Bdubs won't make it even with the healing potions?" Doc struggled to ask with tears swelling up in his eyes causing his vision to blur and his throat tightening making it harder to breathe.

"Yes, I'm afraid so. But there is still a chance that Bdubs will pull through. We never know," Stress replied.

Doc stood aside to let Stress inject the healing potions into Bdubs. Doc pacing back and forth, agitated that only himself has some hope that his crush would pull through.

"The healing potions are having no effect on him," Stress unwillingly told Doc.

Doc was at the point of bursting into tears out of rage and sadness.
He couldn't bear the thought that he'd lose his Bdubs forever.

All the other Hermits arrived as fast as they could after receiving Stress' message. They rushed into her base, Keralis flinging the grand doors open and to see a weeping Doc bent over Bdubs' lifeless body.

No one had ever seen Doc cry, but they thought it would be best to give Doc and Bdubs some space.
Keralis objected to this greatly, resulting in Xisuma and Scar holding him back from running over to Bdubs' side.
Xisuma knew Keralis loved Bdubs, more than anything, which broke Xisuma's heart.

The Hermits stayed by the doors, taking a seat on the shining, smooth Quartz stairs, allowing Doc to say what may very well be, his final words to Bdubs.

"Hey, Bdubs. It's Doc. I brought you to Stress' base when I found you hurt on the Jungle floor."

See you all in the next part that will hopefully be out tomorrow.

Byeeeeeee for now!
