Simon leads me through the maze that is Yogslab to the lounge. He sits on the couch and I follow suit, trying to figure out what question to ask first.

“Just let me explain, and then you can ask whatever questions you want.” I open my mouth to object but he brings his lips to mine, effectively cutting me off. “Shuddup.” He smiles, but then his smile fades. “We only have a week until he is going to freeze you. You must be the master clone. You will be frozen forever, and there isn’t anything we can do about it but spend this last week together. They have the tubes all set up and ready, and have been talking about doing it to everyone else in Minecraftia. Sips, Sjin, Lomadia, Zoey, Rythian. . .everyone! I don’t know about Duncan though. . .”

Simon trails off and I sit there for a minute, awestruck. “Well- isn’t there anything we can do? Any way we can save these guys, or at least warn them of what Duncan is about to do?’’

Simon pulls me into a hug, rubbing small circles into my back.

“Shh, no. There isn’t anything we can do. He has this place on lockdown. Everyone here besides you and him are clones. Please Lewis, can we just spend this week together before. . .”

I look at him and nod. Then his lips meet mine and we kiss like this is our last. Oh, how true that is.

'~.~'

We spend the week on that couch, never leaving each other’s side. On the last day, we cry. I hold him and tell him everything is going to be alright, even though we both know it won’t be.

“Lets go guys!” Duncan walks in and yanks me away from Simon. He stands up and we intertwined our fingers, accepting our fate. My fate.

Down endless hallways we go, into a section I have never been in before. Duncan enters a password and a door opens to reveal two freezing chambers, both identical.

I look up at my tube, and a chill runs down my spine.

“Come on now, up ya go.” Duncan shoves me toward the tube and I am forced to let go of Simon’s hand.

I slowly step into the chamber, tears running down my face. Simon comes running toward me, and just as he is about to reach out, glass shuts and I am locked in. I start banging on the glass, trying to plead with Duncan through my eyes. He just smiles.

I watch as he pushes the button, and suddenly it is like millions of needles are poking into me, and I find I am unable to move.

Unable to do anything as I watch Duncan calmly lead Simon over to the other tube. Unable to scream, or cry, or do anything as I watch them freeze him as well.

 *I am so sorry that this is so short and so bad*
