Chapter 9

Memory... is the diary that we all carry about with us.
Oscar Wilde

*~ Herobrine's P.O.V ~*

I opened the bag and saw various items inside, pulling them out, and placed them beside me. Inside was a book n' quill, first aid kit, various small blocks, food, iron axe, iron sword, iron pickaxe, bow n' arrows, and a picture. I looked closely and saw that it was a picture of a kid version of the girl, her little sister, and little brother. Taking a quick glance, I saw her face seeming like as if she was going to whimper. Though she turned around and huddled into a ball, and I quickly put away her things an went to her.
The Creeper just gently nudge her, to see what was wrong, but she just curled up near the oak tree behind it. I nudged her shoulder softly,

"Are you-."

She sat up so quickly both the Creeper and I jumped back, she was taking in deep breaths, and looked at us asking, "What's going on? Where am I? Who are you?"

I looked at the Creeper before looking back at her, "You're in the Forest Biome. I was walking around trying to find a cave, but I saw you passed out on the ground. I ran over and to see if you were okay, but you were injured so I patched you up with some bandages I had. So I've been waiting for you to see if you would wake up." I was expecting a untrusting facial expression, but I was surprised by her reaction.

She smiled sweetly and hugged me suddenly, "Thank you for looking after me."

I was really surprised, but answered with a nervous smile, "You're welcome." She let go of me and I asked, "So do you remember anything?"

"Ah. . ." She looked away and closed her eyes, as she put her hands on both sides of her head, "Falling. . . I was falling. . . That's the last thing I remember."

I asked again, "Do you remember anything from before that?"

She closed her eyes again, touching her bandages, "No. . ."

I paused before further asking, "What about your name? Do you at least remember that?"

Hands still on her head, her legs moved closer to her chest, "My name? My name is. . . Is . . . Toni." She looked up and smiled at me

"Toni." He repeated with a smile,
"That's a cool name."

"What's your's?" She asked suddenly

"My name?" I looked at her as she nodded with a smile, "Ah-?"

"Y-You don't have a name?" She asked with her face slowly turning into a frown

"I do. . . My name's Hektor. . . With a 'k' instead of a 'c'?" I shrugged and the Creeper looked at me with a glaring hiss

She just smiled and asked the Creeper, "And what's your name?"

The Creeper looked at her, he seemed disappointed, but quickly answered, "Marty."

"It's nice to meet you too Marty." She gave him a hug before sitting back down

I sat awkwardly in front of her, and handed her the brown backpack, "Here this is yours, you had it on you."

"It is?" She answered and looked at the bag, she opened it and pulled out the picture, "Do I know these kids?"

"I think the oldest one is you, and the 2 smaller ones are you siblings."

Looking at the picture she smiled, I felt funny inside but dismissed it quickly. She quietly looked through her things, and Marty went over and looked as well, while he still sat infront of her. I got up and walked a few blocks before hearing her voice in a worried tone,

"Hektor?"

"Yeah?" I answered as was turning around

"Where are you going?"

The Creeper looked at me and hissed, but I answered, "I'm just getting some wood."

"Can I come with you?"

"No, you need to rest, and Marty will watch over you. I'll be back in a few minutes. Don't worry, I'll be back and take care of you."

"Be safe." She replied softly

"I will." I answered with a smile before walking off
