Chapter 3: Forgot
Back at the house, Rose was starting to get worried. The man hasn't come back yet, so she got up and started walking around. "Hello? Is anyone here?" she called. Rose walked into a room that seemed small from the outside. When she stepped in and looked around, she gave a cry of delight. Inside was a massive library, shelves all the way to the ceiling, full of books from every shape and size. She hesitated in the doorway for an instant, unsure if she was allowed in. Her love of books won, and she walked in, shutting the door quietly behind her. Rose walked over to a shelf and started looking at her choices. A shimmering book caught her eye, and she pulled it out. It gave off a faint golden light as she carried it over to an armchair tucked into an alcove. She sat down and opened the book to the first chapter. 'The Creators of Minecraft' was the title of the chapter, and Rose started reading. Page after page she read, until she came upon a picture of 3 men. It took up the whole page, and she looked to the bottom of the picture to read the caption.
'The three brothers; Creators of Minecraft from left to right- Steve, Notch, Herobrine'
Rose stared at the picture for a minute, stunned. What did two of the creators of Minecraft want with her? She kept reading, eager to find the answer. She finished that chapter and flipped to the next, titled 'The History Of Minecraft; The Golden Ages' Rose settled farther back into the soft armchair and kept reading.
----time skip to several hours later----
Back at the edge of the forest, Notch and Herobrine were still laughing and cracking jokes when Notch cut himself off suddenly in the middle of his retelling of a story, and tensed up. "We forgot about Rose!"
Herobrine laughed at the panic his brother was displaying. "I'm sure she's fine. We should go back though, she's been alone for most of the afternoon. That was fun though. We should do it more often, it'd been several cycles since we talked like that."
Notch visibly relaxed, and smiled. "True. Maybe once a cycle. Now let's head back and hope Rose stayed put. Her ancestor was always reckless and ignored orders, let's hope she does better."
Herobrine chuckled. "We had better hope so. We don't need anymore stubborn people after last time."
Notch smiled. "True, now let's head back before anything happens."
Herobrine nodded and he and Notch walked back to the house. Notch entered first, with Herobrine right behind him. They entered the living room and stopped dead when they saw it was empty, and looked like it had been empty for several hours.
Notch turned to Herobrine, his face a mask of horror. "Did Jace take her?!" He yelled, jumping to the worst conclusion. He turned and stalked towards the door, prepared to find his son.
Herobrine walked over to his brother and put a hand on his shoulder, stopping him in his tracks. "Notch stop and think for a minute. Rose could have gotten bored and went to explore the house. You know that we have several rooms that are bigger than they appear. She could have gotten lost in our house. If we don't find her here, then we'll go look for Jace alright?"
Notch nodded jerkily. "Fine but if Rose isn't here, I'm going after my son, with or without you."
His brother sighed and rubbed his temple. "Very well. You search upstairs, I'll check downstairs. We'll meet back here in an hour."
Notch nodded and hurried off. He ran upstairs and started opening doors, calling for Rose. "Rose! ROSE!"
Still in the library, Rose was still reading, captivated by the book, reading chapter after chapter. She turned a page and came upon the last chapter, titled 'The Chosen Ones'. She looked at it in wonder, for the page shone with a soft golden light as she touched it. She touched the page gently again, then turned it. She started reading about past Chosen Ones, and kept reading.
