The Minecraft Diaries – Secrets Under the Surface: Hostages

(This story takes place before the appearance of GameKnight999. This story contains a connection between the info of Entity 303 from TheOwlMan666 and FrozenBoy20’s story. I also have to give credit in the end of the story for being so inspiring… a scene from RedSnake4853)

Hostage

“Good night, Herobrine.” I said.

My brother nodded towards me, “Good night.”

And we smiled.

I laid my back against the soft mattress of the bed.

And closed my eyes.

And dreams.

**********
I opened my eyes to see the white silvery mist around me. The mist was so thick I couldn’t see two blocks in front of me.

Then the mist parted.

I stood at the top of the cliff that overlooked our house and the surroundings. In the distance, there was a forest that took over the left side of our wooden house. There was also a huge desert on the right side. Our wooden house was located in the plains in the middle if those two biomes.

“Help…” A voice said behind me.

And I turned around.

And gasped.

On the dirt ground laid my brother, Herobrine. His face had splatters of his blood, the blue shirt and pants he was wearing was tattered with holes.

“Help…” He said. I tried to reply, but my voice wouldn’t work.

Then another voice bellowed, “Oh you don’t need his help, you need MY help.”

Suddenly, a loud boom an invisible force blew me backwards to the edge of the cliff. Half of my body is dangling off the edge of a deadly drop into the plains.

Then he appeared behind my brother.

“Weak little Minecrafters,” The stranger said to my brother, “But I suppose you will do.”

The stranger is probably going to be a nightmare for the rest of my life. His body is pretty much like anything you would see in a normal Minecrafter, but he is black all over with a hint of purple just like an Endermen. He had something like a black aura that surrounded him, the aura had a silky look to it. Whenever he moved, there would be shadows within his body that followed its master’s movements.

The dark stranger turned towards me and said, “Soon, I will take over the world of Minecraft. I will reach The Source and destroy them all, block by block. You will see the world burn to the ground, and you will burn with it. And if you dare to interfere, you will be taken prisoner and be tortured to the end, you will see your loved ones die right in front you, and then you will die.”

“Steve…” Herobrine mumbled.

“I’ll leave with one final message:” The stranger said as the black silky aura got thicker and thicker around Herobrine and the stranger, “Do NOT interfere.”

Then he forced his hand out, blowing me off the cliff.

Falling…

Falling…

Falling…

“Herobrine…” I mumbled in my sleep.

“Herobrine…”

“Herobrine… Herobrine… HEROBRINE!!!” I woke up with a start, it was morning, but that didn’t matter anymore. I looked at my brother’s bed.

Empty.

As I ran through the house, I repeatedly shouted out his name. But my brother was nowhere in sight.

All the rooms I checked had no signs of my brother.

This can’t be happening, I thought.

I busted through the front door, running into the middle of the plains.

Looking for Herobrine.

He was nowhere in sight.

Oh god no, I thought.

I called out his name over and over again, but I only got the chirping if the birds as a reply.

He must be in… no, he HAS to be in that forest, I thought. He has to be in our secret base practicing sword fight.

And then I ran into the forest.

Trees whizzed by as I ran to our secret base, then there it was. At first I can only see the silvery outline of our base, but as I got closer I can see the different blocks that made up our base.

Then I busted through the door, only to find vast emptiness in the arena.

No signs of Herobrine practicing sword fight.

Oh no, I thought.

Scenes of my dream started to replay in my mind: Herobrine lying flat on his stomach, the dark stranger taking my brother, being blown off the cliff with his evil powers… It was all too much.

I then walked out of the arena.

I had hoped that that dream wasn’t real at first, but no… he really was taken prisoner by the dark stranger.

Then I looked to my left.

And saw a player lying on his back.

Unconscious.

He had blue hair, sky blue shirt and pants.

And then he opened his bright blue eyes.

Your mission is to destroy User-That-Is-Not-A-User…

Your mission… destroy…

“My mission is to destroy…User-That-Is-Not-A-User …” I said.

What the hell am I saying? I thought, who is the User-That-is-Not-a-User?

As Herobrine woke up from his deep sleeping, he opens his bright, white eyes…

“I will obey the master…” He stood up from his bed and observed his surroundings.

What’s going on with me!? I thought, why am I spouting random words!?

And you will follow my orders and destroy… The-User-That-Is-Not-A-User…

DELETE HIM! For our kinds’ goods and for the freedom we want.

“I will creator… Just give me orders and I will obey…”

I tried to control my mind, tried to push away the mysterious voice in my head…

Very good… Now… go…

Kill him… Kill The User-That-Is-Not-A-User… For our kind’s goods and the freedom we want…

Then our world will come… and we will command the NPCs. We will never see The User-That-Is-Not-A-User…

It’s a losing battle between me and the voice…

He’s trying to brainwash me…

For our kinds’ goods and for the freedom we want…

I tried to regain control of my mind, but I can’t…

Lost memories of my eight years of life…

Lost memories of my brother…

Lost memories of everything…

Everything went into the shadows…

We will destroy The User-That-Is-Not-A-user…. For good…

“I will… master…” I said.

“I will obey your order…”
