Chapter Nine

                                            *Seto's P.O.V*

    They put a bag over my head. My hands were still tied behind my back. They dragged me somewhere and threw me onto the ground. They took the bag off my head and cut the rope binding my hands. I stood up, but Black Magic soon kicked me in the back, causing me to fall back down. "Come back by nightfall, or we'll come looking for you!" he yelled as I ran to the portal. He knew that I would not get anywhere at all in this dimension, that's the only reason why he untied my hands.

    As I made it to the portal, I replayed the path back to the kingdom in my head. I entered the portal and transported to Minecraftia. I stepped down onto the ground and looked around. It was good to be back, and I knew I was never going back there without anyone at my side. I ran to the kingdom in search of Sky. I didn't give a freak about Black Magic or any of them. I would die for anyone back in the Budder Kingdom.

    I finally made to the front gates, and, thanks to my luck, Husky was on guard duty with another recruit. As I limped out of the forest and into the open, Husky noticed me and ran to my side. Just before he reached me, I fell to me knees. In the time that it took Black Magic to tell Dark what he was going to do, Frost beat me up. My arms and legs hurt as well as my head from all the torture.

    When Husky and the recruit made it to my side, my mind was already getting fuzzy. They helped me to my feet and guided me into the kingdom. Luckily, they caught Sky just as he was leaving my office. Sky ran over to us and asked, "What happened?"

    I was going to reply, but Husky beat me to it, "He just came out of the forest like this."

    "Take me inside," I said quietly. It was all that I was able to say at the time. They guided me into my office and let me lay down on a bed. I saw Maria, tears in her eyes. I wanted to tell her I was okay, but my vocal cords didn't want to work. I waved my hand in her direction and she walked up to my side. My right eyes was swollen shut, but I could still she her beautiful face.

    "Ar-are you okay?" she stammered. I nodded my head and she wrapped her arms around me in a hug. I hugged her back. I don't know what I would do without her. She was the one person that I looked forward to seeing in the morning. She was my rock. And I loved her to death.

                                          *Ty's P.O.V*

    I was talking quietly to Jason outside the huge castle in the center of the kingdom. Then, Preston came running from one direction. He came to our side, out of breath. Jason and I exchanged a quick glance. "What is it, Preston?" I asked.

   "Sky... wants to... see you... in Seto's office," he said between breaths. We followed him to Seto's office. That was where he kept all of his potions and things to help with healing. We walked past a puddle, and I slightly looked down into the water. I saw my eyes, which were pure black, and my head phones glowing red. I stopped, closed my eyes for a few seconds, and opened them up again. I was back to normal. Oh, Bloodlox, get out of my head!

    "Are you okay, Ty?" Jason asked, concern in his voice. I looked up and said, "Yeah, I'm fine." Jason shrugged and kept on walking. I followed close behind. Why was Bloodlox doing this to me? It must have been a part of a bigger plan than to just give me paranoia.

    Finally, we came to the front door to Seto's office. We walked in and sat down in chairs that were placed precisely so everyone could see each other. Sky was standing, leaning against the wall. His arms were crossed and he had a far away look was in his eyes. I snapped my fingers in his face and he came back to reality. Clearly, he didn't want to be in reality at the moment.

    "Okay, so what happened after I left?" Preston asked, starting off the conversation.

    "Well, Black Magic, my evil twin, captured me and tied me up. I told him that I had a way to kill Sky and he believed me. Now, I have until nightfall until they come through the portal to our dimension to come and kill me," he said. Bloodlox spoke in my ear once again. Wish I could have been there.

    "Shut up!" I said quietly. I looked up and saw everyone looking at me. I looked back down as the conversation continued. "So, what is our plan now?" Jason asked.

    Sky thought for a moment. "We'll attack now. Jason, get the army ready for battle. We'll be out in thirty minutes," He said, instructing Jason on what to do. He nodded his head and ran out of the building. After that, Bloodlox just spoke randomly in my head. He would comment on what the others said. Finally, I got tired of it.

    I ripped off my head phones and let them slip out of my hands. They fell to the floor and broke. It was still in one piece, but the green glowing on the sides were gone. Green flowed out of the head phones and formed into a puddle on the ground. I looked down into the puddle. I saw a reflection of myself. Then, all of a sudden, a figure formed in the green. He looked a lot like me, but he long claws for fingers and huge, purple wings. His head phones were glowing purple as well.

    "Who are you?" I asked. The man looked up into my eyes. His deep blue eyes were filled with worry. He looked from side to side like he was expecting something to pop out of nowhere. He took my wrist in his hand and dragged me out of Seto's office. I heard everyone yelling at me, but I didn't pay attention to their warning words.

    The man took me to my house. He slammed the door shut behind me and let go of my wrist. Christie came into the room were we stood in and froze in place. "Enderlox..." she whispered. I looked from this Enderlox person to Christie then back again. "Don't ask," Christie said, raising a finger to my mouth.

    Enderlox spoke for the first time, "We don't have much time. Bloodlox must know by now and is on his way."

    "Okay, I'll take him upstairs. You stay on guard down here," Christie said and took me by the hand and dragged me upstairs. She took me to our room and went out again. She brought Miranda in, her cat in her arms. She closed the door behind them and locked it. I sat down on the bed and lifted Miranda onto my lap. Muffins jumped out of her arms and onto the bed. "Honey, how do you know him?" I asked. My reply was a door being kicked down downstairs. 

    Christie stood up, but I did as well. I said to Miranda, "Stay here. Don't worry, we'll be fine." She nervously nodded her head.

     I ran down the stairs behind Christie. She gasped as she rounded the corner that lead to the living room. As I came around the corner, I froze as well. Enderlox, the man I barely knew, lay dead at the hands of Bloodlox.
