"We made it.. We actually freaking made it!" Jesse exclaimed, jogging in. She seemed to be in good shape herself, but many of the others clearly weren't. Petra's Wither Sickness was really taking her down, Gabriel came back with not a clue about anything at all, and, worst of all, Ellegaard was dead, because Jesse himself had taken her armor. Of course, Jesse felt fine, but she was still guilty about it all.

Soren, on the other hand, was enraged. He was pacing back and forth, trying to figure it out.

He didn't want to have to use her.

"Soren, man, are you alright?" Magnus questioned the old builder (hint hint ;) ).

"No, no I am not, Magnus. What I want to know, is what happened out there? Why is that thing still alive?" Soren suddenly began to raise his voice, directing it at Jesse. The brunette turned around to face him.

"I was hoping you could have the answers to those questions, Soren." Jesse was clearly still calm and in control of his own anger bubbling. Soren had wanted to know exactly what had happened, so she delievered, "The Command Block is still out there, Soren! Your Formidi-Bomb failed."

"I gave such specific instructions; how could the plan have failed? What good is the fact that we've gone from one Wither Storm- to three!" Soren sighs. "I've got to clear my mind. A huff of fresh air is all I need." He shook his head as he exited the cave.

"He just doesn't want to have to use her." Magnus spoke at last, the words out of his mouth before he even knew what he was saying. It was quiet in the hollow cave, everyone had caught his words. Soren had not yet replied, Jesse had gone after him, and neither one had arrived back.

"Magnus, who is this 'her' you speak of?" Axel questioned, a half of his unibrow raised in confusion. Olivia gave him a look as well, and so did Petra. Magnus gulped. Caught.

"Ah, well, it's not really a story for me to tell." Magnus stammered, growing a bit nervous. He's going to have to tell it, isn't he?

"We have time for a long story, Magnus." Lukas gave the griefer a half-hearted glare, crossing his arms and leaning against the wall as he spoke. Magnus was silent, trying to decide whether he would tell or not.

He'd tell.

"Alright, well, it's a pretty wacky story, so hold on to your socks." Magnus began, stepped ahead.

"Do I literally have to, or was that a hyperbole?" Gabriel questioned. The Rouge face-palms, deciding to ignore the Warrior and get on with the story he didn't even begin.

"Alright, alright, so it was a pretty normal day, yeah? The Order was relaxing, just having a nice little mining adventure. Soren needed lapis, Gabriel needed diamond, Ivor had to snatch some gold, and Ellegaard some redstone. I was just along for the ride. We find this huge portal, and when I say huge, I mean huge. It was almost a couple dozen blocks tall and only two dozen wide. Soren declared we'd go in, take a look around. I recall Ellegaard questioning whether we should go back and get prepared, but we should know Ivor and his habits of getting into trouble. Like he is, he went right in. Soren had to follow, and so did Ellie, Gabriel, and I. We found a world that was much, much different like our own. The only similarity? We both do what we can to survive. And it was clear, ohoho, crystal clear, that they were beating our rear ends at that game!" Magnus laughs, and another voice continued to tell the story. Soren had come back in, with both Ivor and Jesse by his side.

"We met a girl, who could be no older than 15. Her name was Astryd, and she showed us around her world. There were many bad people there and we came to realize that so quickly. Astryd herself was homeless. She said she had lost her parents just a few days before and was making it on her own pretty well so far. The portal was big, big enough for her to fit through, so I took her in as my own. I never exactly found time for anyone but the Order, and Ellegaard seemed more for Magnus than myself." Magnus grew a little red at the statement.

"Is she big enough to take on the Storm?" Jesse questioned, stepping up to Soren. "Maybe we could-" he began, hoping to form a plan with Astryd involved, but Soren interrupted him with a wave of his hand, dismissing the hopes.

"More than big enough, Jesse. But I can't risk having her die to the Storm." Soren sighs, shaking his head.

"Correct me if I'm wrong, anyone." Gabriel stood, walking up to Soren. "But who is more at stake here? Her life, or all of ours?"

"Gabe's got a point." Lukas bounced off and away from the wall. He was quickly agreed by the rest of the residents of the hollow cave. All except for Soren.

"Soren, she has to help. Please." Jesse pleaded.

"I agree with Jesse, Soren. Astryd has to help. I mean, the Storm is only going to get bigger the more it eats, you know? It's only a matter of time before it gets bigger than her." Olivia stood from Petra's side.

"You do have a point, Olivia." Soren admitted with a sigh. "We'll let her distract the Storm. I've taught her how to use Ivor's shrinking potions to be able to get out of the fortress, so she could be on her way if she notices I haven't brought her an evening meal. Trust me, she gets-"

"Crabby when she's hungry? Yeah, Soren, way to put that." came a voice from outside. Soren tensed, knowing who it is immediately.

Oh boy.

Pretty short first chapter.

Not proofread. Like I said, this isn't one of my most serious stories, so I don't see the need of proofreading. Sorry for any mistakes!

It's gonna get better, trust me.

Until the next chapter; ciao!
