Hello, Sky Army Recruits and readers! I am very happy that you all loved the first part of "The Battle of the Sky Army and the Squid Army" so much, that many of you asked for a Part 2! I want to thank you for all the ideas and support, and I now present to you all: The Battle of the Sky Army and Squid Army: Part 2!

Sky POV—

Have you ever had one of those moments where you think you're in reality, but you didn't exactly believe it?

Yeah. That's how I feel right now, as I'm chained to the wall, being tortured for answers I have but refuse to give up.

I'll start from the beginning, like I did last time:

It's been a year since we went to the Squid Dimension and fought the Squid Army. All the survivors are still training, and mourning over the losses of their friends and family. All my friends survived, got nursed back to health, and welcomed back to the normal realm of humans.

But it's also been a year since the daughter of Notch helped us win.

IAngel had "mysteriously disappeared" after the war. She has been "kidnapped by the squids," and "missing in action" ever since. But I know the real truth. She simply continued to roam the world of Minecraft, helping others and keeping the squids from doing too much damage.

Anyway, normal training was going on like usual, teaching newbies how to use different weapons, doing normal job shifts. But something felt… off. Like there was something watching us…

I've been having nightmares for the last couple weeks. They've been like glimpses into the future or messages; another battle, but I'm fighting with people I don't know. I see myself in diamond chains, bleeding and injured badly. But I mostly see the daughter of Notch, running and screaming, swinging her diamond battle-axe at some unseen enemy. None of them were good. Because of those dreams, I had barely gotten any sleep, stressing and trying to escape the images…

But the most frequent one was a shadowed figure that looked human, but wasn't human. He seemed very familiar, in a bad way…

I walked over to my friend, Aviatorgaming. "Aviator…"

He turned towards me. "What up, Sky?"

"Has there been any injuries or deaths today?"

He thought for a second. "Nope. Nothing so far. It's like Notch is protecting us for now."

I nodded. "O—okay…"

Aviator tilted his head. "Are you okay, Sky? You don't look so good."

I pinched the bridge of my nose and squeezed my eyes shut. "Y—yeah… I'm fine." I walked away, trying to keep myself from looking tired.

Dawnables—my girlfriend—walked up to me, grinning like crazy. "Sky! We've got a visitor. And I think you may want to see him!"

I followed Dawn, rubbing my temples. Who was it now? I've seen plenty of people that think they bring me good news, but only make me stress more.

We walked into our base: a 500 foot tall building made up of almost 20 wings of rooms for the recruits and visitors, training gyms, and plenty of hidden secrets. We built it out of obsidian, mostly because it was almost impervious to attacks from the outside. A large 4x4 cube of budder as the crown at the top, to represent the Sky Army. The halls were made of iron blocks and red wool, giving it a kind of classy look.

Dawn opened the door to the conference room, revealing a long table. At the end of it, sat a very familiar friend. Messy brown hair covered a smiling face. His green T-shirt was covered in dirt and something that looked like blood. At his hip, there was a diamond sword that glittered like enchanted budder.

I grinned. "Well, well, well. If it isn't our favorite Audience Member: TobyTurner."

He frowned. "Um… First off: I'm not TobyTurner." He had a slightly deeper voice than the real Toby.

My grin melted. "Who are you then?"

The TobyTurner imposter stood and bowed in a show of politeness. "My name is Zhubox. I am… well, a messenger. I have news from an old friend of yours."

I suddenly snapped my full attention to the messenger, Zhubox. "Who? Deadlox? He's been looking for a new biome for the base for weeks!"

The TobyTurner imposter shook his head. "News from my sister: iAngel."

"Whoa! Your sister?"

Zhubox nodded. "As you know, iAngel left after the war to—"

"Hold it!" I raised a hand. "She's a daughter of Notch! Our creator! And you say she's your sister?!"

He sighed. "Yes. I am a son of Notch. He has lots of children you know. I believe you have several in your army without you realizing it."

I sat down, eyes wide behind my sunglasses. "Oh. My. Notch."

Zhubox sat down. "Anyways, iAngel has been missing for a month now, Sky. All the children of Notch have been looking nonstop for her."

I looked at him. "Missing?"

"Yep. And Notch himself thinks you know where she might be."

I fell out of my chair, and quickly stood. "Notch himself!?"

He chuckled. "Yes. My father himself."

I drew my budder sword. "To the outside of the main wall! We will gather the children of Notch that are in my army along the way!"

Yes… short and kind of crappy for a start. But it's late at night as I'm typing, and I'm really tired, so I have an excuse.

Chapter 2 will be out tomorrow—like usual—and I promise, it will be WAY better. As for now, I will see you tomorrow!
