《More Than You Realize》Chapter 10: Master Ty

So... we don't have any storage space now. When Rainbow Steve gets resources, he gets resources. He had so much iron, we could build a whole city out of iron blocks, and still have plenty left over.
We have plenty of red stone, now. We can definitely make many machines out of it. We won't have to worry about if a battery as strong enough to power it.
"Rainbow Steve, you were gone for only one to two hours. How did you find this much stuff!" I yelled looking at the multiple chests filled with ores, pickaxes, and many other miscellaneous items.
"Well, it was very easy. First, I found a cave-" Rainbow Steve began before he was cut off.
Void Steve explained, examining the many ores crammed into the chests.
"Oh! I don't know... I just found them," Rainbow Steve said with a slight shrug. I sighed.
"Well, I can't complain. We won't need to be going back to mining any time soon. For the most part, we tear down a machine once we're through with it. Heck, we could just leave them up, and still have plenty of materials. The only thing we need now, is more storage. Galaxy Steve, go get wood," I said pointing to the door. He flinched, and began to argue.
"Why me?!" he yelled throwing his arms in the air. Void Steve and I looked at each other, then back to him.
"okoeaty h! we both said in unison. Galaxy Steve thought for a moment.
"Ohhhh..." he said, realizing why we were sending him out. Just so he wouldn't mention our embarrassing moment from earlier.
He laughed, then grabbed an iron axe from a chest. He left without another word, leaving Rainbow Steve confused.
"Why did you guys send him out instead of me?" Rainbow Steve asked, tilting his head slightly.
Void Steve said quickly. I just nodded in agreement. Rainbow Steve raised an eyebrow.
"*sigh* Whatever..." he said looking off to the side.
"Well, Galaxy Steve may be out for a while. He'll probably get distracted, so what do we do in the meantime?" I asked. Neither of them answered.
"No clue. We don't really have much to do. It's not like we need to gather more resources, or anything like that. Nothing to build, and we have no reason to do much of anything," Rainbow Steve said, looking over at the chests full of resources once again.
Void Steve said crossing his arms.
...
...
...
...
"WE CAN'T JUST SIT HERE! I'M NOT TIRED, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!" I yelled. Both Steve's covered their ears.
Suddenly, the door was swung open. Galaxy Steve's walked in, eyes wide. In his hand, was some oak wood he had gathered.
"Is there anymore yelling?" he asked quietly. I groaned, and plopped down on the floor.

"No..." I mumbled softly. I leaned my head against the wall.
"Hey, Rainbow Steve! Come help me craft all of this wood!" Galaxy Steve said pointing to another room where the crafting tables were stored.
Rainbow Steve nodded, and left with Galaxy Steve. It was just me and Void Steve. He sighed, then sat down next to me.
Void Steve asked, glancing at me from the corner of his eye.
"Let Slade capture me? That'll give his all something to do," I said jokingly. He laughed.
Void Steve asked, turning his head fully towards me. I flinched.
"What? Dude, after everything we've been through already! HECK NO! Dude, more evil will come, it always does. You'll be there, with us. Void Steve, I've already said I've considered you a friend, and I'll stick by that," I said smiling at him.
He stared for a moment, then he latched onto me. He pulled me into a tight, painful hug. I felt something wet fall on my shoulder. I smiled some more, and returned the hug.
"I ship it!" Rainbow Steve shouted. We both flinched away from each other. Galaxy and Rainbow Steve were laughing, and pointing at us. We both blushed, and shook our heads repeatedly.
"NO!" I exclaimed jumping up from my position.
Void Steve yelled jumping up as well. Both Rainbow and Galaxy Steve raised an eyebrow, but smirked.
"Sure~" they both sang together. My face was on fire; it probably, really, was. I could cook a steak on my face I was so embarrassed.
Void Steve yelled glaring at the other two Steve's.
"Fine... VOIDSABRE!" Rainbow Steve exclaimed.
I passed out.
'VoidSabre? How pathetic.' I thought staring at the beings talking. I laughed a little as Sabre passed out.
"Slade! What do you think you're doing?" I heard my master say. I sighed.
"Can I not gather information on them in peace, Ty?" I questioned, looking back to him.
His dull, gray eyes were narrowed. He floated high above the ground. His long, black coat waved as wind passed by him. You could barely see his face because his hood covered most. He held a sword in his hand tightly, and his black wings were extended to their full potential.
😂
I owe everything to Tyler, Ty for short. He saved my life way back when... at least that's what he told me. Personally, I don't remember it, but he showed me what happened through his eyes.
My parents had abused me the day it happened. My brother took part in it as well, and he was younger! Ty came by just before my family could completely dispose of me. He knocked them out long enough to get me away from them. I was unconscious the whole time, so that's why I don't remember.

"Slade, it's not good to spy in plain sight. You could easily be spotted," Ty said landing beside of me. I sighed.
"Ty, give me some space, please. Look, I'm grateful for what you did for me as a child, but it doesn't seem right. I'm still trying to remember my life before that. Ty, I feel a connection with these beings for some reason. Let me find myself, please?" I bursted out. Ty stared, his expression not changing one bit.
"No," he said sternly. My eyes went wide. "Slade, you know who you are! My number one, the one I saved years ago! I'm basically your father, so no. I will not leave you to find yourself, when you know who you truly are!"
I have to admit, Tyler can get a little... aggressive at times. It's hard to keep up with him, but I do it. I look back to Sabre and the others. All of the Steve's were dragging him to, what I assumed, was his room until he wakes up.
I smirked; another kidnapping plan came to mind. I turned to Ty with that smirk, making him raise a confused eyebrow.
"I have another plan to kidnap Sabre; you in?" I asked evilly. He smirked, the anger from a minute ago leaving.
"Definitely. Whatcha got?" he asked looking through the window him self. He folded his black wings down, so they didn't seem that noticeable.
"Easy and simple. They won't be in there with Sabre all the time. We teleport in, and take him. With him already out, half the work is done for us. If they do stay in there all the time, we knock them out before we teleport in," I explained. Nothing too complicated.
"And how do we do that?" Ty asked looking back to me.
"A little device I invented, you're welcome. All we will have to do is throw it in the window. Now, you may be asking why we haven't used this before. I don't know any weaknesses of Sabre. Steve's are different. What's in this little device," I said taking out a little ball; nothing too fancy, "is a gas that will knock any Steve unconscious. This will allow us to easily take him."
He examined the little device, and smiled once he was done.
"Slade, you've never failed to impress me. To this day, you, still, have never failed to impress me. I don't wanna know how you did it, but it's amazing," Ty said putting a hand in my shoulder. I smirked some more.
"I can't fail anyone... I'm too much of a genius to fail," I boasted proudly. He laughed a little. "Well, let's go spy. If Sabre is already alone, we'll get him."
Ty nodded. We sneaked around the house, looking for Sabre's room. Finally, the final window, of course, was Sabre's room. Bingo, no one there!
"We'll have to be quick. We'll break the window, but it will be loud. We'll have to be quick to teleport out; got it?" Ty asked getting his fist ready. I nodded.
He broke the window. Definitely loud enough to attract some attention. I, quickly, ran over to the sleeping Sabre, and grabbed him. The door swung open.
I smirked and narrowed my eyes at the Steve's that had entered the room. Void Steve growled, and lunged at me.
I jumped away, Sabre still in my arms.
"Adios, Steves," I snarled. Then, I teleported out.
We had to drag Sabre to his room after he passed out. It wasn't the best situation, but it was still funny. He passed out because we shipped him with Void Steve.
"It was mean, but still funny," Galaxy Steve said with a little laugh at the end.
Void Steve mumbled very quietly. I almost didn't hear him.
"No, it wasn't funny. IT WAS HILARIOUS!" I laughed after setting Sabre down on his bed. Void Steve glared at me and Galaxy Steve.
Void Steve yelled. He jumped at us. Galaxy Steve and I laughed, and ran out of the room.
We all ran around, me and Galaxy Steve trying to avoid the attacks from Void Steve. Finally, we were all exhausted. We sat down on the floor, trying to catch the breath we lost.
That was hard to do, considering we were laughing afterwards. It took a little bit, but we all finally calmed down.
"Hey... we left Sabre alone. Do you think he's okay?" Galaxy Steve asked after we few minutes of silence.
"Dude, he's asleep. Nothing could hap-" I said, but I was cut off by the sound of glass breaking. "Oh... Slade."
"SABRE!" Galaxy Steve yelled. We all rushed to Sabre's room. I felt an anger rise in my chest. Slade held Sabre in his arms. He smirked and narrowed his black eyes at us.
Void Steve growled, then attacked Slade. I noticed some guy behind Slade, and through the broken glass. Slade jumped in front of him when he dodged Void Steve.
"Adios, Steves," Slade snarled. Suddenly, both him and the guy behind him disappeared into thin air. They had teleported out with Sabre...
No one spoke. What was there to say? We didn't really know what to say. I felt shock, fear, pain, and many other emotions.
"S-Sabre..." Galaxy Steve mumbled.
"Wait... who was the other guy standing outside?" I asked recovering from the tragic experience. "Void Steve, do you know?"
Void Steve said turning back to us.
