Work Text:
It had been a few hours {or minutes, I don’t know how Minecraft physics works} since they tried to use the beacons to get out of the desert.
But now their just walking a straight path in it, hoping to find some kind of different areas other then the bloody desert.
Or even better, a Nether Portal.
And while orange was too focused on trying to find a way out of it.
Red was starting to get hungry.
Even realising that if they don’t get any food now,
They both will starve to death. {even though it’s been explained during the PVP episode that they can just respawn to where they were created}
So he stops Orange from walking and get him to look at his Minecraft icon.
“Hey Orange, do you notice that we’re both starving? Because I do and I don’t want to die from starvation.” Red said being scared.
And so while he sits down and shivers in fear because of it,
Orange looks at his Minecraft icon and sees that his food icons are low too.
But despite this, he get’s really annoyed at Red for something.
Until he starts pointing at him.
“Oh my god, shut up! You always act like a ducking baby sometimes, just act like a grown up for crying out loud!” Orange said angrily.
“Why are you calling me a baby? You know that if we don’t find food very soon, we’re both gonna die from starvation and our bones will be covered with sands!” Red also said angrily.
But that only started the blame game between the two friends.
“Knock it off already! It’s your fault we followed Purple to the other nether portal, and it’s your fault that we’re both gonna die here anyways! And you wanna know the worst part? That none of this would’ve happened if we just went back home without Blue’s stupid Netherwarts!” Orange said angrily.
“Oh, so you wanna play the blame game huh? Well if we did go back home and didn’t go with Purple to do some awesome parkour races in the sky, then we would’ve all died from fucking boredom!” Red said while trying to defend himself.
“Oh you’re trying to blame me as well? Well because of that stupid parkour races we did, we’re now stranded here and are going to die from starvation really soon! And we don’t even know if Blue, Yellow and Green are still alive or not!” Orange said angrily.
“Well, it was your idea to use three beacons to teleport us to a different location instead of the skyblock world. And look what that got us into!” Red said angrily.
“Man, shut your bitch ass up!” Orange said to his friend while pushing him down to the ground.
“Oh, is that it? You wanna go huh?” Red asked angrily.
“Well then, bring it on, you son of a bitch! Orange replied angrily.
And so the two of them have a brutal fight in the desert.
And even though they were both starving, that didn’t stop them from having enough energy to beat up the other one with their moves.
It doesn’t help with the fact that with the sun now gone, the Minecraft mobs {like desert zombies, spiders and creepers} have showed up to kill the two stick figures.
Or just you know checking the fight out, like it was a school fight.
But despite a lot of mobs popping up in the desert, the two friends didn’t seem to notice because they were too busy fighting with each other.
And because of the fight, the both of them were able to take down a lot of mobs without even noticing they were there.
Even with Orange even one shooting a creeper with just a single punch.
And then during the fight, {which also includes the mobs for some reason} Red realises how he fucked up big time by fighting his friend.
Who, when angry becomes more stronger and is now blinded by rage.
“Oh Sugar, Honey, Ice, Tea!” Red said nervously.
So he tries to run away from the fight, while also dealing with the mobs.
But Orange is still keeping the fight going by both taking down the mobs and chasing down his friend.
And just when things couldn’t get any worse, the fight leads them to fall through the sands and into a cave system.
While the mobs just look at the two stick figures falls, and decide not to go after them.
{Ok, sounds cool I guess.}
————————————————————————————————————————————————
Despite falling through the cavern system, Orange was still beating the shits out of Red.
While the Animal Lover himself tries not to fight back and tries to dodge his attacks to no avail.
Red tries to fight back inside a room filled with amethyst blocks, but to no avail.
As it seems like that orange was now blind by his own rage.
Then they fight in a mine cart that keeps moving like it was a rollercoaster, or something like that.
Until eventually the minecart falls out of the railways, causing the two stick figures to fall into the water.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
When they were underwater, Red notices some glow squids lighting up the water, which he finds fascinating and cool.
He thinks that he’s safe from his friend who has now succumbed to rage.
But boy was he wrong.
As even underwater, the fight continues.
With a lot of Axolotls just watching in shock and disbelief as the two friends continue to have this blood riddled fight underwater.
And once again, Red tries to swim away from the fight, but to no avail.
Until eventually they reach the surface and the fight continues to be bloody and violent too.
“Get off of me! This is not like you!” Red said as he runs away fearing for his life.
“Get back here, you motherfucker!” Orange said really angrily.
This was seen by two purple Axolotls, who also think this fight is really messed up.
Then the two stick figures goes to a pile of leafstalks which they use to go up.
But that didn’t stop Orange from trying to kill his own friend.
“Ok, we can just call off the fight now, because I also don’t wanna be killed by you too!” Red said to his friend.
But Orange just ignored him.
And then when they get to a platform at the top,that was when he gives out the most brutal blow to his friend, by rapidly punching him and kicking him in the process.
And before he gives out the finishing blow, he starts to choke Red.
As there was nothing the Animal Lover can do but be killed by his own friend being corrupted by such blind rage.
“Next time, don’t fuck with me, you baby!” Orange said angrily.
Before he knocks out Red with a really strong punch.
Then after that he kicks his friend’s unconscious body down from the platform, and into the water.
After that, he starts to take really deep breathe.
Before eventually, he calms down, and looks around the new place that he and his friend were.
“Wait a minute. Where are we?” Orange asked himself.
Then he looked at all kinds of things that were founded in this area.
Like hanging vines, a lot of different coloured Axolotls, bats, a room filled with amethyst blocks, and even glow squids.
“This actually looks, beautiful and calm.” Orange said to himself in a calm and happy voice.
Then he begins to think about what Red said to him.
That if they did go back home, then they’ll just be bored out of their mind and die.
And this caused him to realise that his friend was actually right about not going back home immediately.
“Hmm, guess like Red’s right about following Purple, maybe I should go apologise to him.” He said to himself.
But when he tries to look around, he couldn’t see where Red is.
Only to see a bunch of bubbles floating around the water.
Only to realise the reason why he wasn’t up on top of the platform with him.
“Oh shit! I just threw Red into the water!” Orange said to himself while panicking about it.
And so with no choice, he dives into the water.
And while underwater, he sees Red starting to sink to the ground like he was dead or something.
So hoping that his friend’s still alive or not, Orange grabs his friend’s hands.
And swims with him back to the surface,
While two more purple Axolotls watches on.
And then….
{Splash!}
————————————————————————————————————————————————
After resurfacing from the water, Orange felt a lot of reliefs by hearing Red waking up and coughing up a lot of water.
And while that was happening, he was able to swim the two of them back to dry land, where Orange helped his friend cough up some more water.
“Hey, hey, it’s ok. I’m sorry for calling you a baby, I’m sorry for nearly causing you to drown and I’m really sorry for nearly killing you.” Orange said to Red feeling guilty about everything that just happened.
Then he waits until Red finishes up getting all of the water out of his lungs and waits until he wakes up.
And once the animal lover do, it was pretty awkward.
“Hey, bud. Good to see that you are awake.” Orange said to his friend.
This caused Red to curl up in fear, as his mind was still thinking about the fight and how pretty brutal it was for him to get beaten up by his own friend.
And even though, Orange tries to touch him, he was still afraid.
“Look, I’m sorry for what I did and-.” Orange tried to say to Red.
“No! Don’t hurt me! Please!” Red said with a scared tone.
This caused Orange to realised how he messed up really badly for nearly killing his friend in a fight.
But it also caused him to flashback to where he said the same thing to his creator Alan Becker.
When all of his friends were deleted and when he was just trapped inside a box with nothing to do.
And now this is happening again, but with himself and Red.
Orange never wanted to hurt Red in a brutal and bloody way, they were both just starving and angry with each other.
So he sits next to Red and hopes that eventually he will stop being afraid of him.
But because of the fight today, Orange doesn’t think it will happen.
But that was when he notices some orange coloured fruits in some of the vines, and thinks of a idea.
“If I forgave my creator because of him giving me my friends back. Then hopefully this will be enough for Red to forgive me.” He said to himself.
And so after a bit of climbing and using some of the vines like he was Tarzan,
Orange was able to grab the fruits that actually looked like cherries for some reason.
But that doesn’t matter right now, as he swings back down to where Red is and shows him the fruit.
And the scent of it made Red unable to look away or be scared at his friend.
“Here. You’re starving right? So hopefully this will make up for the argument we had a few minutes ago. Orange said to his friend.
And so without any words, Red grabs the fruit and eats it.
Where he realises that it tastes really good,
And even starts to devour the entire thing, since he was really hungry.
While Orange eats the extra fruit he got for himself normally.
Then after the 2 stick figures finished eating the fruits, they both begin to have a chat.
“Thanks for the fruit you got me. Didn’t realise that I was so hungry during the fight.” Red said to Orange.
“Your’e welcome. But also I’m sorry for everything.” Orange said to his friend.
“What do you mean by that?” Red asked.
“You know. For calling you a baby, for having a fight with you, for nearly killing you because I was blinded by my own rage, for nearly causing you to drown and for scaring you. I was so focused on returning to our home, that I didn’t realise that this lush filled cave, was actually beautiful. And that going back to our home would lead us to die from boredom.” Orange replied.
Hearing what Orange just said, Red take a moment at a lot of things that his friend saw as well.
Which are hanging vines, a lot of different coloured Axolotls, a room filled with amethyst blocks and even some glow squids.
After that, he looks at Orange and smiles.
“You know, i think you’ve just learned a valuable lesson.” Red said.
“Which is?” Orange asked.
“That when your’e being blinded by rage, it would sometimes lead to you accidentally murdering someone. And when your’e in a blind rage, you don’t see how much beautiful the place you are in really is. Plus it’s got everything in here, like vines, fruits, bats and even this cute little creature.” Red replied while holding a dark blue coloured Axolotl {that was actually a reference to Mudkip from pokemon}
Seeing Red hold one up, did lead to Orange laughing his ass off because of it.
“Maybe you’re right, we had been too busy on our dumb little fight to notice this lush cave. But that’s good because we both learned a lesson about being in a blind rage.” Orange said to his friend.
And Then the two of them sit in silence for a few minutes.
Until eventually Red speaks to his friend.
“And also Orange. I forgive you for everything you did to me.” He to his friend with a calm smile on his face.
“Thanks. and I forgive you for blaming me for everything.” Orange also said.
“I wonder how our friends are doing. Now that we’re both separated from them.” Red said
“Yeah, me too.” Orange said.
And so the two sat in silence for a few more minutes.
Wondering if Blue, Green and Yellow are still alive or not.
