*Mary's POV*

"GET BACK HERE" We ran after the hooded stranger with Emily, in front.

The man stopped running, and turned to us. "What do you want!?" He hissed from under his hood.

"We just wanna know who you are!"

"Well to bad!" The man turned around and ran away.

"Thats it!" Greg pulled out his sword and threw it at the man. The sword stabbed right through the mans back, and he collapsed to the ground.

"You shouldn't have done that!" The man pulled his hood back, and he had pure white eyes.

"Herobrine." Emily started backing up.

"There's no time to run now!" Herobrine stood up and started walking towards us. As he got closer to us, his eyes started turning light blue. By the time his eyes were dark blue, he stopped moving. "Goodbye." Herobrine smiled, and lightning flashed from his eyes.

"Guys? Are.. Are you okay?" I sat up in a bed.

"Where are we?"

"In some sort of house." Dylan said. "I've been here for awhile. Nobody/thing came by. Its just been me."

"So Caleb was right. This isn't GTA."

"Yeah. Oh yeah I found a note in the drawer. It talks about saving Jack, and finding someone named Stephano. Here." Dylan handed me the note.

-Dear reader, I am writing to you about your friend. I was snooping around the Castle, when I saw the Barrels drag him away. I was going to try to save him myself, but it was to risky. I don't know where the Barrels are keeping him, but I do know that the barrels are not working alone. Oh yeah Stephano should know where the Barrels are keeping your friend. Find him, and he will help you. Oh and one more thing, look out for the bro. He's somewhere in the Castle, and once he finds you, you're dead. Wait whats that crashing noise? OH NO ITS THE BRO! These are my last words, find Stephano, save your friend, and defeat the-AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

"The note had some blood on it." Dylan passed the note around. "So Barrels kidnaped Jack, there is a Bro running around, and we need to talk to a guy named Stephano. Seems easy enough."

"Ummm whats happening?" Ebony sat up. "Where's Dylan?"

"I'm here." Dylan sat at her side. "Right now we are in a castle, Jack's been kidnapped by Barrels, there is a bro running around, and we have to find a man named Stephano, and Caleb is somewhere in the castle."

"Wow. Thats intense. Do we have a plan?" Ebony asked.

"Not yet. Though I think Husky, Greg and Zoe are dead. Husky died before me, and Zoe was with you guys."

"So was Zoe." I replied.

"Ok. I think we should go and look for Stephano." Dylan said.

"Alright lets go then!" We all got up and headed for the door. I opened the door, and it was complete darkness in the hallway.

"Uhh guys..." This was really scary! I HATE THE DARK! "I'm...I'm..."

"Your what Marry?"

"I'm....I'm..."

"Your?"

"I'M SCARED OF THE DARK!!! IT REALLY FREAKS ME OUT, AND I THINK THAT THERE IS ALWAYS A MONSTER IN THE DARK!"

"Its okay Marry." Dylan comforted me. "You got us. We're here to help you."

"Thanks." I smiled up at him. "Thanks a lot. I really need someone to be there for me."

"No problem. Now you can be in the middle of the line, so that there are people in the front of the line, and in the back. I have a lantern, so I can lead."

"Ok I wanna be at your side!" Ebony ran over to Dylan.

"I'll be in the back!" Emily said. "I can fight anything that attacks."

"Ok than, lets go!" Dylan grabbed Ebony's hand, and they ventured into the darkness.

********

We had been wandering around the castle, for what felt like an hour. We hadn't come across any enemies or obstacles.

"So whats the bro?" Emily asked.

"I honestly have no idea." Dylan replied. "The writer of the note said that he was a threat. Like the barrels."

"I ain't scared of barrels. They got nothing on me!" Ebony started punching the air.

"Sure." Emily laughed.

*CRASH*

Dylan stopped in his tracks. "What was that?"

"Uhhhhhhh..." I felt my face go white. "I think its the bro."

"I have a feeling that we should run now."

"Ok. RUN!" We bolted down the hallway, looking for any signs of danger, but nothing happened.

"Probably a mouse or something." Ebony said panting.

"That wasn't a mouse." Dylan replied. It was something bigger."

"Like a barrel?"

"Nah. Barrels can't brake things. They just roll."

"They see me rollin they hatin!" Ebony started cracking up.

"Uh yeah guys, that was funny and all, but I think we should go." I looked around the room we were in. It was a normal size room with a bed, a closet, and all that other stuff. While everyone was laughing, I went over to the closet. It looked like a normal size closet, but there was something wrong with it. As I got closer, I could hear the closet breathing! "Uh guys, there' something wrong with this closet!"

"Whats up with it Marry?" Dylan walked over, and as soon as he got to where I was standing, he stopped. "Guys. RUN!!" As we started running, the closet broke and a monster came out. It looked humanoid, but its jaw was stretched out to the side, it had claws, and there was bloody gashes all over its body!

"AAAAAAAAAHHHH!! ITS THE BRO!" We ran into the hallway, and started making random turns until we were in a random room.

"CLOSE THE DOOR, AND HIDE!" Emily closed the door, than we all grabbed a dresser and barricaded the door with that. "HIDE!" Emily hissed.

I ran and slide under the bed. Dylan climbed under the blankets of the bed, Emily hid in the closet, and Ebony climbed under the desk.

Heyyyy Marry!

Shut up! You'll give us away!

Not really. I'm just a voice in your head. I can't do anyyything!

Alrighty then, what's going on?

You're trapped in a game called Amnesia: The Dark Decent. The next game you go to won't like very much. Thats all I have to say. Oh and btw the bro is gone.

Hello? Narrator? Hey I need your help! Please? Pleeeeeeease??

"Guys its safe!" I called out to the others.

"How do you know?" Dylan replied.

"Just trust me!" I slid out from under the bed, and everyone else came out of there hiding places.

"So where now?" Emily asked.

"I KNOW WHERE!" I turned around, and I saw that the desk was talking.

"Um what?"

"Open the desk drawer please." Everyone turned to Emily.

"Fine, I'll do it!" Emily walked over to the drawer and opened it. Inside there was a small golden statue.

"I'm Stephano." The statue said. "I heard you need some help."

"Uh yeah." Emily picked up the statue. "We're looking for our friend Jack."

"Yeah I saw him. The barrels kidnapped him and brought him to their dungeons. I know the way, but you've got to promise that you'll listen to me no matter what. Promise?"

"Guys huddle!" Emily sat Stephano on the table, and we went to go huddle.

"Do you trust this statue?" Dylan whispered.

"Kinda." Ebony said. "But what can we loose. We're already lost. And if he is the real deal, than its fine."

"I agree."

I looked at the statue. He was a golden guy that was on one knee, and he held a golden knife. He also had a head wrap on.

"Hey Stephano!" I walked over to him. "We're in."

**************

"Okay now turn right, than follow the hallway all the way until the end." Stephano had been guiding us. For about a hour now, and we didn't see very much progress on where we were going.

"Are you sure you-"

"SHHH! The bro is coming!" We all stopped in our tracks.

"We need to hide!" Dylan whispered.

"No!" Stephano growled. "He won't find us if we don't move. He hasn't seen us yet! If we move, than he will attack!"

"Fine."

We stood there, behind a table watching the bro, when it all went wrong. The bro threw a chair, and it smashed into Ebony, taking her down to the ground. Once the chair hit Ebony, she cried out than her body went limp. The bro turned around, and we were staring at each other.

"Guys. He sees us. RUN!" Dylan lifted up Ebony's body, and ran. As we were running, I tripped over the broken chair and crashed to the ground.

"MARRY!" Emily turned around and ran towards me.

"NO! GO! I'LL JUST SLOW YOU GUYS DOWN! GO AND SAVE JACK! I WON'T BE ABLE TO HELP!"

"But Marry-"

"No! Just go!" I started tearing up. "I've had this coming."

"Goodbye Marry."

"Just for now." I watched as they all ran off. Emily ahead, and Dylan caring Ebony. "I'll see you guys later." I whispered to myself. "Maybe..."

I turned around to face the bro, my entire life flashes before my eyes.

*Flashback*

"Marry Marry is so hairy! She thinks the whole world is scary!" Johnny chanted. "Will she ever have a life? Or will she be scared for the rest of her life?" We were 2 graders. They weren't to good at making up rude rhymes. At the time I had Nyctophobia, which is the fear of the dark. If I even saw a tiny dark space, I would freak out. I even had to learn to sleep with my eyes open at night. And all the school kids figured out that I had a fear if the dark, and they made fun of me about it.

"Guys stop!" I ran to go punch Johnny, but the crowd of people kept me restrained.

"Whats little Marry gonna do? Tell her Mommy? Oh mommy I'm super scared and I need a new diapie!" All the kids started cracking up from Johnny's "Joke".

"Leave me ALONE!" I growled.

"Or what?" Johnny laughed. "You'll get your mommy?"

"THATS IT!" I broke free of the crowds grip, and I ran up to Johnny and punched him square in the face. Johnny cried out, than he collapsed to the ground blood streaming from his nose. "What have I done? I-I-I made someone bleed." I started slowly backing away, than I ran. I ran out of the school yard, and to the only place I felt safe. Home.

~o~o~o~o~ Dream shift by the way.

"Marry, please tell us why you punched Johnny in the face." I sat at the principals office 4 years later.

"He started beating on my friend."

"Is that true Johnny?" My principal turned to Johnny.

"No. I only pushed her, and that was because she stole my lunch money."

"LIES!" I stood out of my chair and faced Johnny. "SHE DIDN'T STEAL FROM YOU! ITS AGAINST HER RELIGION! YOU JUST WANTED TO BE A JERK, SO YOU DECIDED IT WOULD BE FUNNY TO PUSH HER TO THE GROUND! I HEARD YOU LAUGHING AT HER!"

"Marry please calm down." The principal motioned for me to sit down. "There is no need to shout."

"Yes sir." I sat back down. "Johnny has been a bully to me since 2nd grade. He's always trying to show that he's better than me, but I've always been stronger."

"Alrighty. Lets get miss Hannah in here. Lets see what her story is."

We sat in the office, waiting for Hannah to come, and about 3 minuets later, she showed up.

"Miss Hannah did you steal Johnny's lunch money?"

I looked at Hannah. "Hannah please don't lie. We're friends right?"

"I'm sorry Marry, but I can't lie. I did steal Johnny's money."

"WHAT! HANNAH! WE'VE... We were friends. I can't believe you you'd lie!"

"I'm not." Hannah said.

"Well then miss Marry that is 2 on 1. I nearby expelled you from Oakwood middle school. Pack your things and go. I'll call your parents."

I looked over to Hannah. "I can't believe you would lie. I just can't." I walked out of the office, and to my locker. I took everything and put it in my backpack. I wasn't even gonna say goodbye, because I had no friends.

~o~o~o~o~

"So you came here because you want to get rid of your nyctophobia?"

"Yes."

"Well, if it is a real phobia, than you will never be able to loose it, but we can find a way to manage it." The doctor said. Not doctor who!

"Ok. Where do we start?"

*****

"First we will lock you in a room with dim light for a minuet. Than every minuet it will get darker. You will have a button in your hand that activates the lights. Click it when needed."

"Ok. I can do this." The doctor gave me a pad with a button, with a wire running to the wall.

"Good luck."

It started out easy. Just a little bit of dim light, but after about 5 minuets, it was almost pitch black. "I can do this!" The minuet after that, if went dark. I started seeing things around me. I was about to freak, but then I saw Johnny. He was laughing at me. "YOU DON'T SCARE ME!" I dropped the button pad. "NONE OF YOU SCARE ME! I'M NOT SCARED!!" All the monsters turned to me. Then they charged at me. I tried to hold my ground, but I couldn't. They ran at me, and I collapsed to the ground.

~o~o~o~o~
