Third Person P.O.V
As Jason runs down the hall, he could hear the recruits following close behind him. He suddenly trips and yelps in pain as he hits the ground. Fear crawls into him as he sees recruits going around him. Jason sits up feeling the pain come back and looks at all of them. His eyes stop at Zoey and Danny.

"Zoey, Danny. Come on, snap out of it." Jason said. Recruits grab Jason by his arms and pulls him up to his feet. Jason fights back but they keep him contain. Herobrine appears in front of Jason smiling. Jason narrows his eyes at Herobrine. "You did this! Change them back!"

"Jason...perfect. The guy that everyone likes. Zoey and Danny here." Herobrine said handing Zoey a whip. Jason's eyes widen. He struggles against the recruits grip and gets a punch into his stomach making him groan in pain.

"What..What are you trying to do Herobrine?" Jason asks.

"I said if the villages or any Sky Army act up bad things will happen. Since Mitch was recused by Seto and Misty, I don't have anyone to give the punishment too. But now I have you, Jason. But I could save you the pain if you just join me. Your recruits already h-"

"Bullsh*t! I would never join you Herobrine." Jason snapped. Herobrine looks at Zoey.

"Do it. As long as needed." Herobrine said before disappearing. The recruits drag Jason outside. Jason tries to break their grip but every struggle ends up with a punch in the stomach. At least Jerome and Ian are safe and that is what he wanted. They turn Jason around and push him down to his knees in front of a round pillar. The recruits get braces on Jason's wrists after a long struggle of keeping him still. They wrap the chain around the pillar keeping Jason still with his chest against it and his back out. The recruits smile backing up from Jason. Jason looks behind him and sees Zoey with the whip in hand. She smirks.

"Let's see how long it will take to break you." Zoey said.

"No! No please! Zoey don't!" Jason yells. Zoey puts the long whip over her head and snaps it down towards Jason. Jason screams as he feels his shirt teared open and cuts into his back. Pain explodes everywhere through him. The recruits around are either cheering or wanting a turn. Zoey does it again and Jason screams in agony. He pulls on the chain wanting it off. Wanting this to stop. "S-Stop it! Please."

"Comply with Herobrine!" Zoey yells.

"N-Never!" Jason yells back. The whip hits his back again making Jason scream again. Zoey flinches suddenly at it and stops for a second. Jason's back with three deep and long cuts in it and teared up flesh around it and blood slipping out, he tries to stand up only to fall back down. Zoey shakes her head and hits Jason again. Jason screams again feeling it cut into his shoulder. Zoey gives the bloodied whip to Danny. Danny smiles holding it and meets Jason's eyes.

"We have a lot of recruits to go through Jason." Danny said. He lifts it over his head.

"No. D-Danny please d-don't." Jason begged. Danny snaps it towards Jason. It hits Jason's back and leg making him scream in agony again. His screams heard through the forest and the nearest village.
----
Jerome, Ian, Sam, and Jack walking through the forest on alert of any recruit.

"Sorry guys that this happened." Jerome said.

"It's okay." Jack said. A scream makes them stop. Ian's and Jerome's eyes widen.

"T-That's Jason!" Ian said. Another scream comes.

"O my god." Sam said.

"We can't go back for him." Jerome said.

"Jerome-"

"No. Jason wanted us to keep going." Jerome said. Ian takes a step towards Jerome as another scream is heard.

"Listen to him. He's in pain." Ian said.

"I know." Jerome said.

"Why are we abandoning him? I thought he had some plan but he needs us." Ian said.
------
Echo backs up a little as an arrow comes at her and goes into the ground where she was standing. Notch appears and smiles.

"Hmm....no where to run. Just kill them both already." Notch said. He disappears. The recruits charge at her.

"No." She said. She backs up and turns around running back towards Sky.
----
About over half an hour of endless whips hitting Jason's back and he is still alive and awake. He lost count about how many times he was hit but his throat is dry and sore from screaming. But Herobrine took all the recruits away expect for Zoey. He can't feel the pain anymore as much. Jason is against the pillar knowing that he can't hold his own weight. Jason squeezes his eyes shut as he suddenly feels the whip dig into his back again. He groans loudly.

"Just comply Jason and this will end." Zoey said. Jason picks his head up a little bit. He looks at Zoey. The bloodied whip catches his eyes as it comes again. It hits the side of his face and shoulder making a scream of agony comes out.

"P-Please. S-Stop." Jason begged as his voice sounds scratchy. His clothes are all torn up and soaked with blood and tearstains on his face. Jason can feel his wrists cut up at the braces from moving so much and the strength he once had is all gone.

"If you comply with Herobrine." She said.

"N-No." Jason said. He takes deep breath and sees black spots in his vision. He prepares himself for the whip to hit him but it never comes. Instead Zoey walks up next to Jason and she looks down at him.

"Your so pathetic Jason. Why fight when there is no hope left?" She asks. He looks at her.

"Z-Zoey. Can't y-you see w-what Herobrine i-is doing t-to....t-to." Jason passes out and Zoey rolls her eyes.

"Like I said pathetic." Zoey said. She looks at the broken general for a second and the whip slips out of her hand. She drops down to her knees looking at her hands seeing the blood on her hands but most the ground. She looks at Jason. Tears form in her eyes.

"O my god. J-Jason." Zoey said. She moves Jason's hair to look at his face. "I'm so sorry." Herobrine appears. She looks at him.

"You did perfect Zoey. But how you broke my spell. I don't know." Herobrine said. Zoey grabs a sword.

"You bastard!" She yelled attacking him. Herobrine takes a few steps back avoiding the sword.

"Whoa now. Calm down Missy." Herobrine said. Zoey swings at him again. "Do it again and I'll make Jason take that hit." Zoey stops. She backups in front of Jason pointing her sword at Herobrine.

"You don't touch Jason or hurt him ever again." Zoey threaten.

"Actually I'm not the one who hurt him. You and other recruits were whipping him for over half an hour. That's gonna hurt Zoey. You had his trust and he wouldn't hurt you. But you and other recruits basically almost killed him." Herobrine said. Notch appears next to Herobrine. Notch looks at Jason.

"Those wounds are deep Zoey. I would he has, counting all the blood he has lost, he has about ten minutes at the most." Notch said. Zoey glances at Jason and back at Herobrine and Notch. She grips the sword tighter.

"Let's see what happens with this. Continue with the whippings till Jason is dead." Herobrine said. They disappear and Danny appears. Zoey lowers her sword.

"Danny." Zoey said.

"Zoey I don't see you whipping Jason anymore. Why?" Danny asks.

"Danny. Herobrine is in your head." Zoey said. Danny picks up the whip and Zoey looks at it. "Danny don't! He has had enough torture!"

"Move out of the way." Danny said. Zoey drops her sword and grabs Jason protecting him.

"Danny don't! Jason is dying! We have to do something!" Zoey yells.  Jason flinches opening his eyes feeling the pain burst through him. He yells a little and Zoey let's go of him. She smiles a little. "Just stay calm. Don't die on me please. I'll get you out of here. Danny he has had enough." Jason's eyes go behind him seeing Danny with the whip. Fear flashes onto his face and Danny smiles when he sees it.

"D-Danny. D-Don't. P-Please." Jason begged. Danny puts it over his head. Jason looks at Zoey who hasn't move out of the way.

"Danny, he sounds broken already. Please don't kill him." Zoey begged. Jason moves one of his leg and kicks Zoey. She falls on the ground as Danny snaps the whip. It drills into Jason's back and he screams. He spits out blood onto the ground. He sees his blood splattered everywhere. Danny does it again and Jason screams in agony breaking Zoey's heart. She stands up and tackles Danny down. Jason takes a few deep breaths falling limp against the pillar.

'Come on, Jason. Stay alive. Your friends and recruits need you alive. But it doesn't seem like the recruits even want you alive.' He thinks to himself. Zoey pins Danny's wrist against the ground and sits on his hip. They meet eye level.

"Has it gonna through your thick skull yet Danny?!" Zoey yelled.

"Get off!" Danny yells.

"No! Not till you promise me you won't hurt Jason!" She yelled. Jason flinches at the loud voices and groans.

"Z-Zoey." He muttered. He sees darkness starting to take him.

"Well he is gonna die even if you don't want him too." Danny said. He grabs Zoey and pushes of the ground and moves over her. He gets up kicking Zoey in her side making her yell. He picks up Zoey's sword and walks to Jason. Jason's eyes looks at Danny's. Danny points the sword at Jason's back.

"Don't you look at me." Danny said. Jason smiles a little.

"Y-You n-never h-have the g-guts to k-kill Danny. T-That's w-what I like a-about you. It's t-to l-late for m-me to s-say m-my h-hands ate clean cause t-they aren't." Jason said. Danny grabs his shoulder pointing the sword towards Jason's back. "H-Have g-guts to t-torture but n-not k-kill." Zoey stands up and grabs the whip. But doesn't move for some reason.

"So?" Danny asks.

"It destroys y-you Danny. The g-guilt is horrible. B-Been l-living with that. Y-Your not a k-killer. So don't b-become on." Jason said. Jason breathing starts to slow down and Danny can see. He lowers the sword.

"Your such a weak pathetic fool Jason." Danny said. Zoey runs at him and pushes Danny. She looks at Jason.

"No. No. No. Jason. Jason don't you die on me." Zoey said. Jason presses against the pillar. Zoey moves the back of his shirt up and gasps. "It's not that bad." Danny gets up. Zoey takes out Jason's sword and hits Danny on the head with the hilt. Danny falls on the ground. Zoey grabs one of the chains. She puts the sword on it and tries to cut it by going back and forth. Jason looks at what she is doing. Tears are coming down her face. He sees Herobrine appear.

"Z-Zoey." Jason said. Zoey goes faster.

"I'm gonna save you. Just hang on Jason." She said. Herobrine kicks Zoey down onto the ground. She yelps in pain.

"I never said you could let him go. Once the villages see Jason they will back down." Herobrine said. Zoey sits up as Herobrine does the transportation spell. She gets up quickly and grabs Jason. They teleport into a village and the pillar is still here and Jason chained to it. Robert looks up and at them. His eyes widen. Zoey pushes Herobrine.

"You get away from him." Zoey said. Jason tries to get up but he isn't able to move even one muscle in his body.

"Jason!" Someone yelled.

"I told you Robert what would happened if you mettled and mettled you did. So since Mitch escaped, I was found Jason. Of course his own recruits were the ones doing every whipping he got." Herobrine said. Zoey goes down next to Jason. Jason moves his head so he isn't looking at Zoey.

"Jason..." Zoey said. Jason sees worried expressions on people's faces. He closes his eyes wanting to die so he doesn't live to be Herobrine's tool. Zoey moves to the other side and sees Jason's eyes close.

"Jason. Jason please look at me." Zoey said. Robert takes a few steps towards the three.

"No. No. No. I will give Jason more right here and right now Robert if you mettle again." Herobrine said. They both disappear but Zoey stays in the North Village. Tears form in her eyes and Robert goes to her.

"I did it. I'm the one who hurt him!" Zoey yells. He grabs her arms.

"Calm down. Calm down. Calm down." Robert said quickly. "Tell me what happened. We will get Jason back."

Echo sees Sky walking and then he suddenly collapses too. She slows down to a stop next to him. Sky looks at her.

"I thought I said don't come back." Sky said. He sees recruits coming.

"They gave me no choice!" Echo said. He tries to stand up again but falls against a tree. "You did twist your ankle. Sky teleport." He grabs Echo's arm and teleports. They end up still in the woods. Sky yelps in pain instantly once his feet hit the ground and sits down.

"Sky...why did you teleport us here?!" Echo asks. Sky looks around.

"Echo..I can barely think straight right now. I'm sorry we ended up on the edge of the Forbidden Forest but give me a freaking break!" Sky said. Echo signs. She lays Ty down and goes to Sky. "I can walk." Echo rolls her eyes.

"Fine! Go ahead. I'm just trying to help since you can't even stand up by yourself." Echo said. She walks away from him. She picks up Ty as Sky tries to get up but groans and falls back down.

"Echo...help...me..." Sky begged softly making Echo stop. She doesn't know how to help Sky since making Ty walk by himself it not an option. She looks at Sky and sees him looking so helpless for once. She signs.

"Let me look at it." Echo said. She lays Ty gently. His eyes open. "Stay here. Go to sleep." Ty closes his eyes. Echo goes to Sky. His hands catches her eyes.

"What happened to your hands?" Echo asks.

"Herobrine and Notch happened. Both attacked me when I woke up." Sky said. She goes down on her knees next to Sky. She puts her hands on Sky's ankle making him wince in pain.

"It might just be twisted." She said. She takes off Sky's shoe and pushes up his pant leg a little. She puts two fingers on his ankle making him wince again.

"Hopefully." Sky said.

"It does need to be wrapped. Um. I don't know how I will be able to get you guys anywhere-"

"I can walk if you wrap it cause Ty is not walking." Sky said. Echo nods. She already loss her coat to Ty so she cuts off part of her shirt and now shows a part of her wrapped stomach making Sky grab her arm.

"Wait. Your hurt too." Sky said.

"Sky I'm fine. Quentin healed me up." She said. She wraps Sky's ankle best she can. She puts his shoe back on him.

"You shouldn't be carrying Ty with that injury." Sky said. She looks at Sky.

"Sky I'm fine." She said. He looks at her bloodied wrist. She goes to hide it but Sky grabs her hand pulling her arm towards him so he can see. She blushes lightly. "Neither of us should carry Ty, Echo." She takes her hand out of her grip.

"I can carry Ty just fine. You have a leg injury-"

"While you have a stomach and wrist injury. Which one of us is more at risk here?" Sky asks. Echo looks at him a little mad.

"You always do this." She said angrily. She stands up.

"What?" Sky asks.

"Hiding your weaknesses Sky. There is no way in hell I am letting you carry Ty with a twisted ankle cause it will just make it worst. I know your use to hiding pain from people Sky but do not hide it from me. I can't carry you or help you walk in any way cause Ty needs me to carry him since he shouldn't walk one bit. I don't want you to walk." Echo said. Sky looks at the ground and Ty opens his eyes. He sits up slowly.

"Just leave me behind then." Ty said. The two look at Ty.

"No." Echo said instantly. "We are not leaving anyone behind."

"Echo...I-I'm done." Ty said. Echo goes to him leaving Sky on the ground.

"What do you mean by that?" Echo asks.

"Fighting. I-I'm done." Ty said looking at the ground.

"Ty you didn't just say that. You are coming with us whether you like it or not." Echo said.

"B-But Sky." Ty said.

"I will figure it out." Echo said. Sky wants to say something but he doesn't feel like it's the right time.

"While your um...figuring it out. I need to tell you two something." Sky said. Echo looks at Sky.

"What Sky?" Echo asks. The sudden use of that name stings Sky for some reason. He loved his Mom but Herobrine called him that too when he was little. The Doctor really dig deep to find Sky's name and past.

"Stop..calling me Sky." He said. Ty looks at Sky.

"Wait...what a-are you s-saying?" Ty asks.

"Like you Ty. Real name Tyler. Nickname Ty." Sky said.

"Sky isn't your real name?" Echo asks. Sky shakes his head.

"Well w-what is it?" Ty asks. Sky looks at the ground.

"I told you guys Herobrine was my dad and I honestly thought he was. But it turns out it's just a load of lies." Sky said.

"Wait..." Echo said standing up and stopping halfway between Ty and Sky. "Your a foster kid?" Sky nods.

"And that not even the half of it. Lisa was the one who got the recruits under control by Herobrine. Today has been such a f**king amazing day." Sky said sounding mad. He clenches his fists in the ground. Echo goes down in front of him and grabs his arm.

"Okay. So what's your real name?" Echo asks. Ty looks at the two.

"Adam." Sky said. Echo smiles a little.

"Okay last name? Maybe we could find your real parents." Echo said.

"I don't know my last name. And besides if they just gave me anyway I must not be that important to them." Sky said.

"Can I just call you Adam or do you still like to be called Sky?" Echo asks.

"Sky." Sky said. Echo nods.

"Alright." Echo said. Sky smiles a little.

"We s-should get m-moving." Ty interrupts.

"Alright. Um. I will carry you Ty. Sky you okay with walking for a while?" Echo asks. Sky nods.
