In the server of 11smp, early in the morning a group of people were piling up at Spawntown. Apple, Shelyn, Ehm, Kaelsius, Avery and Adonis. They were all partnered up on a triple date or rather quadriple? It doesn't really matter.
Apple's partner wasn't on smp yet, he knew he wasn't able to come so early so he had made a plan.
Apple was looking nervously at everyone as they talk to their partners. While Shelyn is...with a flag of his beloved country.
After everyone was gathered up, Apple asked for all of them to go to Windervale.
Windervale's cafe will be the venue of their triple date.
Apple brought them to the cafe. Then, that was when Apple revealed that Kastor couldn't come and that he had set up... a fake date? With an armour stand.
It was Kastor's idea to make it that way.
After everyone joked and teased Apple, he had to serve their orders since no one else was at the cafe and he was the host AND he was one of the owners of the cafe.
"I want steak, get me my steak!" Shelyn asked, quite rudely.
"We don't have that.." Apple said as he checked his inventory.
"Well, what's in your inventory?" Ehm adjured.
"Mutton, some cake, and uh..." Apple paused, it would probably be better if they move outside instead since it was a mess in here.
"You know what? Why don't we move by the bridge, we have like 212 cakes there anyway."
Apple didn't wait for their response and went to the make shift elevator to go down.
He waited for everyone to get to the bridge.
"Apple, I think you forgot your date at the cafe..." Adonis pointed at the cafe as he walked with Avery.
"Oh shit, you're right!"
Apple hurriedly went to the cafe and took his date—he realized that the others were still here for some reason. "I just said the venue is moved by the bridge, move everyone!"
After that Apple went back to the bridge with the others following.
Not even a minute has passed and there was already chaos. Shelyn was kissing with THE FLAG.
Apple was continuously breaking the flag to stop Shelyn.
But of course, Shelyn didn't stop.
At that point everyone just gave up and let him do whatever. Whatsoever was even happening on this triple date.
Apple and Shelyn then argued about which one of them is more schizophrenic. Since Apple was partnered with a literal armour stand and Shelyn was partnered with a flag.
While that happened, Avery had dragged a table outside and had a date there. They were the only ones actually having a date—aside from Kaelsius and Ehm making out right next to them.
Apple sighed as he looked at the chaos that was happening especially since Kel had appeared for some reason as well.
After a while of more havoc by the bridge. Kastor has arrived and joined the server.
Apple immediately greeted him and asked him to come to the venue.
After that, some more riot happened there. With thirteen also arriving.
Shelyn has placed flags of Exorlog all over the place. Everything was a mess.
Apple just sighed at whatever he was looking at right now.
He then looks at Avery who was currently Afk and Thirteen hitting him over and over.
No one really stopped Thirteen, they didn't dare to. After that, Thriteen managed to kill Avery. After he respawned and came back, Thriteen started hitting him again.
The third time Thirteen finally stopped and began targeting the others. Especially Apple for some reason.
They speared and chased Apple over and over again.
After Thirteen left Windervale and so did the others. Kastor suddenly started hitting Apple.
"Kastor, what the hell?!—"
He was confused. Why?
Why was he doing this?
Why was he impulsively attacking Apple?
After Apple realized Kastor was seriously killing him, he ran.
He jolted to a sprint and tried to equip his elytra to fly away.
Even so, Kastor was still chasing him.
"Why are you doing this?!"
Silence.
No answer.
Apple had to use all of his fireworks to get away.
After thinking he has lost him, he glides down to a mountain.
Trying to hide under the trees.
Alas, it was no use.
Not even 15 seconds have passed that Kastor already caught up.
Kastor points the sword at him.
Apple then saw there.
There was no running away from this.
"Why?.."
Still no answer.
Why wasn't he answering?
Why not give a reason?
He was gonna kill him anyway—so why?
Tears filled Apple's eyes. Water begins to collect at the bottom of his eyelids.
A sharp and short intake of breath follows as his lips tremble.
He looks directly at him.
Trying to find any remorse at all.
However, to no avail, there was nothing.
And Apple accepted that.
He bites his lips, trying to hold back his tears.
It doesn't matter.
As long as...he dies by his hands he's alright with it.
Then—Kastor went for the Kill.
Apple was slained by Kastorion
Apple then respawned moments later. Staring at nothing really.
He doesn't know why Kastor would do that.
Did he do something to piss him off?
Was it his fault?
He doesn't know. He'll never know why.
