Nothing Built can Last Forever... But Your Imagination can

Episode 3: The Last Place You Look. Chapter 4

Soren: Ah, I see! You misspoke. *Faces Jesse* You don't need me. You just need my stuff. Well... I've found that when you give people what they want, they turn on you.

Soren then walked past Jesse and towards the dead plants on the other side of the room.

Soren: They become resentful. They show their true colors.

Jesse: Who turned on you?

Soren: All of them! ... *Sigh* It's way I prefer endermen. They always do what you expect, almost to a fault. You're a stranger. And what you're asking for is too dangerous.

Jesse: Look, I'm sorry for tricking you.

Soren: That is what you did, isn't it?

Jesse: But I needed to get your attention. I have the amulet.

Soren: What?

Soren faced Jesse, and Jesse took the amulet out of her inventory.

Jesse: Gabriel gave it to me.

Soren: Gabriel?

Jesse: Gabriel asked me to reassemble the Order of the Stone.

Soren: The Order of the Stone?!

Soren made his way towards Jesse.

Soren: They... asked for me? I've always known they needed me, but I was never sure if they wanted me... It's lonely down here without your friends.

Jesse: Gabriel is your friend.

Soren: Hmm... I don't know... Does he ever talk about me?

Jesse: Uhhh... Sure.

Soren: What kinds of things do they say? Specifically... Give me an example.

Jesse: That you were...

Jesse was thinking about it. She didn't know what to tell him, but luckily you spoke up.

Y/n: That you were missed.

Soren: *Faces you* Really?

You made your way towards both Soren, and Jesse.

Y/n: Yes.

Jesse: Well, maybe it was more miss-ing... you have to read between the lines.

Soren: *Faces Jesse* Yes... Yes, you do. But what about you two? Are you my friends? As long as we're in the subject. Not to put you on the spot.

You, and Jesse look at each other. Jesse had an unsure look on her face, but you gave her a nod. You both then looked back at Soren.

Jesse: Sure.

Y/n: I don't see why not.

Hearing this brought a smile on Soren's face.

Soren: That's the best thing I've heard in years! 'Admittedly that's not a very high bar...'

Soren then walked closer to you, and Jesse.

Soren: Don't worry. I'm going to help you... because that's what friends do.

Soren then walks past the two of you, and makes his way towards the window.

Soren: Before we leave I'm going to give my old friends a gift. The gift *faces Jesse* of song.

(Stop music)

Soren puts a disc into the jukebox and it begins to play a song. Soren then prepares himself to sing the song.
