Hunter or Hunted

Ch. 5: A Restraining Order Is Needed

*sabre's pov*

I walk on the cold hard stone, hearing the all to familiar sound of wind searing along the terrain.

I make my way along a small patch of grass, watching as some sheep peacefully rest by a spruce tree.

I continue walking until I reach a steep cliff, at the bottom there's deep water.

I stop to look around.

"I've been looking for a steve for hours now... Still no sign of any..."

It would be great if I could find a steve on his own... Rather than a group or village.

I sigh to myself as I turn to find a way down the steep hill.

As I walk I come across a wierd lapis block mess...

"huh??? What's that...?"

I carefully sneak closer looking down at the lapis cluster.

There's two figures there...

Two... Blue... Steve's....?

"they don't looks like... Blue steve's... Their colors are... Darker???" I whisper to myself.

They look like they're fighting. 

Hm... Oop.

One teleported away.

Should I go down there...?

I wanna find out if that is really a blue steve...

I mean. Maybe they're completely different than normal blue steve's.

And it's only one now...

I take out a book and write:
"hello, I just want to know if you're a blue steve. I don't want to start a fight.  :)"

There that should do.

I carefully sneak behind the steve and throw the book on the ground.

I back off slowly.

Huh. That steve still hasn't noticed me.

Hm... What can I do to get his attention...

Oh i could knock on the stone with a stick. That's loud enough right?

I carefully knock on the stone wall with a stick 3 times.

The steve turns around and takes a few steps back in surprise.

I point down to the book and crouch a few times to get him to look down as well.

"come on. Look down."

He looks down and picks up the book.

"yes! Now read it- oh wait. You can't hear me... Still. Open the book :))))"

He reads the book.

I wait in anticipation.

The steve just stands there looking into the book.

Oh.

He closed the book and very slowly turns his head to look at me.

Okay.

Welp.

This was a bad idea.

I ready one of my blades with narcotics.

I wait, but the steve just continues to stare at me.

Uh...

Should I say something??
