Beyond The Sweater//re-write//TRIGGER WARNING

Chapter 3

It had been a good few hours of mining before Grian gave up and put everything into his ever growing chest monster. He didn't know what the time was but by judging where the sun was, he guessed that soon it would be getting dark. He decided to go and find where ever Maui and Pearl were to make sure they were okay. It had been a short while since he had seen them and he was starting to get worried.

He strapped on his a elytra and shot out of the jungle in search of his precious cats. He had left them in the shopping district so that they wouldn't get lost and would be easy to find, the shopping district wasn't that big after all. He landed just outside the barge and called their names.

He was searching for about 10 minutes before he ran into Scar.
"Hey G-man, what are you doing this fine evening?" Scar smirked almost as if he new something Grian didn't.
"I was just looking for my cats, you wouldn't have seen them by any chance?"
"Hmm well I think I saw them wander into the Nether-"
"What?! I gotta go bye Scar!"
Grian ran over to the portal as fast as he could leaving Scar behind bursting into laughter. Of course he hadn't seen them going into the portal, in fact, he saw them on the Diamond throne and decided to keep them as a bribe for the Mycelium residence.

Grian and been searching for hours before giving up and returning to the over world. He would search again soon, although he was beginning to give up hope. Two cats plus a world that is mostly lave and fire aren't good mixes.

He flew up and into the sky but not before he heard a meow he know to well. He glided back down to where it had comfort and searched.
The meows lead him into the town hall where he saw Scar sat with his two cats on the diamond thrown.
"Gotcha" Scar said with a wink.
Grian paused for a moment. Scar wouldn't have played such a mean prank, he knew how much those cats meant to Grian.
"Scar...did you know they were here." Grian said as more of a command than a question. He clenched his fists as tears threatened to spill.
"Yep."
Scar said it with such a positive tone that really surprised Grian.
"Can I have them back. Please." Grian had to get his cats back. They were more than just family to him.
"Nope, I'm going to use them as a bribe. If you want th- Grian?"

Grian blasted as many fireworks as possible to get away. Why would Scar have done this to him. He knew they would be safe but there was a nagging part of him that thought otherwise.
His mind was racing with thoughts.
What if he tortures them?
What if he threatened to drop them in lava?
What if he DID drop them into lava?!!!

He crashed into floor of chests looking for something, anything to help him escape. Why did Scar have to take away his only coping mechanism. Although he knew it was kind of on him for nit telling anyone that they were his emotional support cats.

Suddenly, he saw something gleam in the light of his home. He moved piles of rubbish and pulled out a sharp iron sword. He remembered back in high school when he used this type of thing to cope with stress. He shouldn't do it. No. He shouldn't have done it. But not back in high school, right then.
1....2...3..
"Yeah...that's enough."
Three slits were visible on his upper arm. He felt alive doing it. He was numb to the pain cause that was an arm he had damaged the most, he killed the nerves. He on,y wanted to see his blood spill and feel the mental pain he deserved. He quickly wrapped himself up in cobwebs, pulled down his sleeve and went inside to cry himself to sleep.
However,
He shouldn't have been so careless to have done it out in the open.
