Prologue: Lost in a Small Forest

(Unknown POV)

I was just recording what I found in the unexplored forest so I could show it to the other Mindcrackers. It was nothing, really, I don't get why people could get lost in this particular forest. Yes, I was lying. This forest is explored but anybody who explored this mystical forest never came back. Huh, it actually sounds like a spooky movie or something. Cliché. Although it sounds unbelievable, I soon found out that it was true. Just as I think this forest is, for the lack of a better word, plain, I decided to get back home. I had made my way back to the trail of redstone I left if I ever get lost but I doubt it. So wrong. I have reached where the trail ends but I was still in the forest. How odd! I swear I made the trail of redstone from the entrance to where I decided to head back but yet, where this trail ends indicates otherwise.

I climbed up the tree nearby me for a better view. I reached the top and my jaws dropped to the roots of the tree I'm standing on as I look around. I'm in the middle of the forest! How is this possible?! I haven't walked for 5 minutes and now I'm here, in the middle of forest. I climbed down the tree as I convince myself this is not happening. You know what they say, 'Time sure flies when you're exploring a forest!' Huh, but this is just illogical! My name is Etho, and I don't know how I got lost in this seemed-small-but-yet-not forest.

(Another unknown POV)

I am a young warrior who loves adventure. I am currently living with my soon-to-be-wife. One day, I decided to explore this certain forest that they say capture the ones who explored there as anybody that enters this forbidden forest never came back out. My soon-to-be-wife was worried and didn't support the idea but I just had to go.

When I first reach the forest, I was anxious. Every step I make made my tension go higher, making me more and more nervous. After an approximately two-minute walk, I remembered something and then face palmed myself. I forgot to make a trail back home! I thought. I wisely went back to the way I remembered I used to get here so I wouldn't get too lost. The sun was almost setting and I still couldn't find the way out! Weird, I have started this journey early in the morning! It couldn't have gotten that late that fast! It is either time is playing tricks on me, someone is playing with time, my memory doesn't serve me right or it is just my bad luck. The more logical ones are the last two. I don't have a great memory, that's why I forgot to make the trail, and also my luck... it is utterly horrible! Trust me, it is, you wouldn't believe how bad it is... Let's save that story for later.

Now, I think I had went the wrong way so I went back to where I gotten here. I turn back and jumped when I saw a lake. Since when was there a lake behind me?! I know my memory is horrible but I don't think it's that bad... Ok, it's offical, this forest is weird. My name is Pat, and I seriously hate this magical forest.

(And another unknown POV)

I am a little bit too young to be an inventor and professor but yes, that is my job. I was originally just an average citizen with no job but I decided to a fancy house in a desert. Beside it was a huge lab owned by an infamous doctor. Soon, we became the best of friends. Long story short, we decided to make a huge experiment but we need one more ingredient that is extremely rare - the glaridous flower. We have looked up and down for it but we just could find it. The only place we haven't look for, that is within one zillion blocks of radius, is the unknown forest. The offical name for is the Unleaveable Forest. The reason behind this is because anybody who enters it never came back. It's really a mystery, the forest looks normal, the distance between trees are fairly wide, and the forest is not really that big, just 2000 blocks in width and 5000 in length, but even though so, people still got lost in this particular forest.

I was hesitant but I had to do it, I have huge doubt my doctor friend could ever escape it because I couldn't! Yes, I have stupidly stepped into this unknown forest, that could lurk monster I never knew of, poisonous plants I never knew of but still, I have stepped into this forest. I always the paranoid kind of guy because I am very scared that something will go wrong, I have checked everything I need, did everything I have to do, did the calculations of risks and the worth but as always, something have gone wrong.

I have left a trail Compowder which is something my friend and I made, it is a powder that will automatically points to spawn point of the last person that touches it. It took nine days but we still did it! I'm proud of that! I put one every fifty blocks. The first twelve worked greatly but yet when I placed the thirteenth, it gone haywire, pointing at different direction every nano second. Huh, so they were right, number thirteen is a unlucky number. Note to self: Don't pick number thirteen as a favorite number. I decided to count on my memory, which is more horrible than a 100 years olds', to get back home but it seemed like the scenery around me changed completely. Oh come on! I remember this is the thirteenth Compowder but forgot the way out, this is so me. My name is Dan, and I regret ever coming to this unknown forest.

(Last and final unknown POV)

Most don't know of my existence because I prefer having a low profile. Even though I don't communicate much but I still can get a laugh out of you, even if you always wear a strict face. I have trained myself to the limit but even so, I still have weaknesses. To be stronger, I decided to explore this forest that is one like no other. This is the forest where nobody leaves once they enter. No record of sightings inside the forest were taken so it is the best way to train my reaction towards sudden changes. Huh, I got sudden changes alright.

I have entered deep into the forest, I left no such trail as I can train my memory as well. I have explored deep and far but no weird thing happened. Maybe I should wait till night time, a thought that passes through my mind. Yes, it will be perfect! Way of survival without any preparation! So I made a camp out of hand and camped till night. I have waited for long hours patiently for mobs to start spawning but no such thing happened. But it is currently midnight! How is such a thing possible?! Am I having those subconscious illusions I sometimes have. I used the traditional way oh making sure if you're dreaming or not, pinching yourself. Well it was stupid really, pinching yourself and fell the pain you cause on yourself but at least I know this is reality. A broken one. No hostile mobs spawning at night? So wrong. I decided to make my way out but then... is this what the forest looked like just now? It seemed so foreign to me! Considering I have a great memory, if I do say so myself, I don't remember it being like this! Oh wow, this never happened before... A test I wanted and a test I get, this is so unexpected. My name is Dragstream, and this is a test I will always remember in my head.

So that was interesting! Please vote if I should continue or not! I need at least 3 points to continue, if you type #YesForTAA, it will be counted as a point, but if you type #NoTY, a point will be deducted. Time to explain some things. If you don't know, Etho is a Youtuber named EthosLab, a member of the Mindcrackers, he is great at redstoning and thinks quick. Pat is also a Youtuber named PopularMMOS, he originally did MMOs but then he started playing Minecraft. His luck is horrible and I'm not sure about his memory but I'm pretty sure it's kinda bad. He also has a future-wife named Jen who plays Minecraft with him sometimes. Dan is another Youtuber named TheDiamondMinecart, he is said to have a villager friend called and a bone-made wolf named Grim. He apparently does experiments with his villager friend. He also does Spore currently and other games too. Subconscious illusions is another word for dreams. Dragstream is me obviously and let's just say I'm mysterious. Many secrets to be revealed later on.

This is not as long as I would've like it but it's a start at least! I think this story will have at least 300 chapters but I can't promise you that, I will split it into seasons. So in the next chapter, they will meet, but how are their reactions?

To be continued...
