My POV

I held my head gingerly and sat up, feeling the familiar tile of the Grand Hall under my hand.

I looked around to see Cassia under Kit's wing again, struggling to push it off, again.

I giggled and lifted Kit's wing, again, for Cassia to roll out.

"I REALLY hope that doesn't happen every time...."  Cassia muttered.

ilbarker sat up, rubbing her face.  "Ok, I was a LITTLE ready that time."

Kit wrapped her wings over herself like a blanket and shifted a bit.  "Bleeeh, 5 more minuuuuuutes...."  She muttered.

I rolled my eyes and turned to Garroth, who was laying on his back, his eyes open.

I stood up and walked over to him, kneeling down.  Hey, Garroth.  You ok?

He looked at me and sat up.  "I...I don't know....  It's so weird...."

I sighed and looked up at the rest of the group.

Cassia and ilbarker were trying to pry Kit's wings from around her so that she would get up.

Kit's wings opened suddenly, causing Cassia and ilbarker to fall forward onto Kit.  Kit then closed her wings, cocooning herself with the other 2.

I laughed as I heard muffled squeals of laughter and shouts of "KIT!  STAHP!!  LET US OUT!!!"

Kit opened her wings again and Cassia and ilbarker tumbled out.  They were all laughing really hard.

Kit sat up and flexed her wings a bit, her stick still in her hand.

I pulled Garroth to his feet and looked around.

Where's Becky and Rebekitah?

We're already in here!  I heard Rebekitah call.

For someone who's fast at practically everything, you're slow getting in here.  Becky said bitterly.

I scoffed.  Really, Becky?  Keyword practically.  I'm MENTALLY fast, not physically.  Besides, trying to round everyone up in here.

Well, Jess is getting really antsy!  Hurry up!

I rolled my eyes and levitated the 3 onto their feet and walked into the kitchen, Garroth right behind me and hopefully the readers behind him.

Jess was floating in a pacing way.  She turned when we entered and froze.

Garroth stared back, wide-eyed.

"G...Garroth...?"  Jess whispered.

Garroth walked forward to her and tried to touch her shoulder, but his hand passed through.

"A-Aphmau?  What...what happened?!"

She sighed in slight sadness and slight happiness.  "If what they were conversing about earlier is correct, you and I are from different universes in a way.  I died here by...well, her."  She pointed at me.  "But not directly from her.  It's...complicated.  Just that I...I needed to know you were safe.  I left you in the Irene dimension...."

Garroth's eyes got teary.  "N-No!  No you didn't leave me, Aphmau!  You're always with me.  Because I am your guard, I always put you first, so it feels as if you're always there...."

I giggled lightly.

Hehe, my first ship ever created was Garmau.  Now, it's Aarmau, but still!  This was really cool to watch!

Aphmau smiled happily, tears falling down her face.  She floated somewhat into Garroth, her head on his shoulder...kinda.  "I'm so glad you're safe...."

I felt myself get a little teary-eyed.

Gosh, I am WAY too empathetic sometimes!

They separated and Aphmau turned to me, her hostility towards me completely gone.  "Becca...though I am still a little mad about all this...thank you.  Thank you for bringing Garroth.  I feel...so much lighter now...."

She started shimmering, kinda like the turtle master in Kung Fu Panda did.

She smiled happily.

"Goodbye...."

A small flash engulfed her, and she was gone.

The floating pans crashed to the floor.

Caleb and I stared at each other for a moment before I ran to him and picked him up swiftly, burying my face into his tiny shoulder, swinging him around a bit.

CALEB!!!!!!

I started crying.

Oh my God, thank you!  You're safe!!

I fell to my knees, still hugging him.

You're ok, you're ok....

He was hugging me back, crying, too.  "Becca...Becca...I mitsed you...."

I pulled away from him and smiled happily.

I stood to my feet and pulled Alzakz into a hug that would make a bear jealous.

"Ow.  Much ow, Becca."  She winced.

I chuckled a little and pulled back, wiping my eyes.

Thank you SO MUCH for taking care of my little brother.  I told myself that I'd hug you to death for protecting my little brother.

ilbarker came over and picked up Caleb, hugging him.

"THE LITTLE QUOTE ANGEL IS OK!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I laughed and looked to Garroth.  Hey, you ok?

He looked back at me and wiped his eyes, nodding.  "Yeah...I just want to go back, though...."

Ok.  I can send ya back.  Ready?

Garroth looked around a little confused but nodded.

The same light engulfed Garroth, and he disappeared to...whatever alternate dimension we created, or I created, anyway.

ilbarker, still holding Caleb, asked, "So...Ty next?"

I nodded.  I'm curious as to what Ty's request is.  By the way, can you send Alzakz and Caleb back home?

Uhh...I...I can't....  I'm unable to send hostages home until all spirits have been released.

I sighed heavily and walked out of the kitchen back into the Grand Hall.

Yo, Ty!  Ya there?!

A small ball of light shone on the table and then Ty appeared.  "Hi.  Is it my turn?"

I nodded.  We sent Jess on.  So...what's your need?  And...uhh...do you have a...person...?

Ty sat on the table's edge as the rest of the gang came in from the kitchen.

He fidgeted a bit.  "Erm...for your second question?  Yeah...."

He looked to his left and so did we.

A pale blue hologram appeared, showing a single figure.  Male.

I didn't recognize him at all, though, so I believed that it was one of my followers.

He looked up at us and his eyes widened.

'Becca?  Is that you? '

I frowned as a male voice filled my head.

The only one I knew who did that was....

Wait, StayinAlive4Now?

I originally knew him as Jasonthealone, or Jason, but...I guess he changed.

Welp, ok, then.

Follower as a hostage.

Just what I needed!

I sighed and nodded at him before turning to Ty.  So...what is your request?

"Well...I...I miss parkouring with Sky and Jason---"

Wait, you remember Jason?

Jason the spaceman, guys.  Yes, I just realized they have the same name.  TrueMU.  MinecraftUniverse, even.  Not the Jason hostage.

"Well...kinda?  I mean, I remember a specific map with him and Sky that I really miss.  Plus, in my current state, I'd be able to entirely play the role."

Current state...?  His current state is ghost....

Wait, hologram?  Hologram Deadlox?

"Did you just say hologram Deadlox?!"  Kit and ilbarker said at the same time as Cassia seemed to barely contain excitement at the thought.

I laughed.  Yeah!  I think the thing I remember most from it is that one boat area.  "Hologram Deadlox can apparently touch the boat."  Also "Hologram Deadlox fighting creepers~  ...While Sky gets blown up on a boat!"

xD

Ty laughed a little.  "Yeah, that one!  I really wanna do that again...."

I frowned.  The first problem is relocating Sky and figuring out where Jason even is in this universe.  The second is that you can't leave the mansion!  How are we gonna even take you to the map?!

Don't worry about that.  I got that covered.  I'll explain when you bring Sky and Jason back.

They said that last part as I opened my mouth to ask.

:P

Well, I guess...Alzakz, Caleb, Becky, Rebekitah, can you guys hang here while we go get them?

Alzakz and Caleb nodded and Rebekitah pouted a bit.  Aww...I wanna come, though!

It's because she doesn't like me.

Uh, well, no....  It's just that...I'm pretty sure if Sky saw me with a ton of people, he might freak the frick out.  Plus, ya know, clones and stuff?  'Sides, you'll be coming on the parkour adventure...if I can figure out what the heck they meant.

>:)

;-;

Well, anyway, I can put my abilities to use....  Wait.  Didn't the book end on a loop?  How...?

Err....  Don't question it.  Not all things need to be explained.

I rolled my eyes.  Well, guys, let's go.

I walked out the door with the three and closed it.

So Kit, you can just fly using your wings.  Cassia, ilbarker...lez fly!

I pointed my hands at them and lifted them up.  Hope you aren't afraid of heights!

They both yelped a little in surprise as I floated upwards, Kit beating her wings next to me.

"AWESOME!!!!!!"  ilbarker yelled.

I laughed and flew out in a direction that I felt I should be going, Kit to my right and a little behind.

"I BELIEVE I CAN FLY!!!!!"  Cassia yelled happily.

I laughed.

As we flew off to wherever it was we needed to go, I did the A/N.

Well, guys, here we go again!

Guess we're saving our next follower, Jason, from...being a hologram?  Where is he exactly?

Well, anyways, smash that vote button at hyper speeds, Hyperfans!!

-Becca  <3
