When Herobrine Appears

Chapter 2: Corrupted Code

Brian/Herobrine's POV

Since I was captured by the so-called 'Jeb' and almost died, I was forced to stay in bed for... a week now.

And Notch says I can't leave my bed until he makes sure I'm alright.

"You almost died." He says, eyes holding the tiniest bit of guilt in them. "I want to make sure you're all right."

And Steve told me what happened after I fainted.

As Jeb ran away, Notch collapsed on top of Brian's unconscious body.

"Jeb..." He muttered.

I looked at him worriedly.

"Notch, are you ok?" I asked. "You look..." I didn't finish the sentence.

Neither Alex nor me looks much better than Notch did, I noted.

"I'm alright, Steve." Notch sat up next to Brian's body. "It's just... Jeb."

"You mean the guy who killed Brian?" Alex asked. She was fuming.

"Yeah." Notch sighed. "Him and I have a long history."

"Let's go back to our house first." I said. "We have to bring Brian anyways." I paused, bending down to look at Brian.

His eyes were open and the clear blue irises I came to like were glassy. My dear brother, dead.

He sacrificed himself to save us.

Sacrificed.
Sacrificed.
Sacrificed.

The word kept circling around my mind.

Sacrificed.
Sacrificed.

It was my fault.

I wanted to go fishing.

It was me who asked Notch if we could go fishing.

If we didn't go, none of this would happen.

I bowed my head. "He was a hero." I spoke softly to Notch.

Notch's devastated eyes met mine.

"Hero..." He muttered. Then a light cane into his eyes. The kind of light that came when he had an idea.

He whipped out his computer and started tying some code.

I looked over his shoulder. He was changing a code of someone named... Herobrine?

Notch junped up and started pacing around.

I looked at the computer. The code was red.

Then I saw a red light. Brian was glowing a red light, the colour of the light the same as the red code.

"Notch?" I asked nervously.

Notch's eyes darted from the computer to Brian, his eyes full of guilt.

I looked at Brian and I gasped.

His whole body was circled by red code and a eerie red light covered him.

Alex snapped her head around when she heard me gasp.

She stared at Notch.

"Just what have you done now?" She asked.

Apparently, Notch messed with my code a bit, changing my name to Herobrine as he said I was a hero by sacrificing myself to save others.

Something went wrong and my code turned red.
