Enjoy this new story I randomly came up with after watching YouTube when I should have been doing homework. As I always do, the characters in this chapter are:

SkytheKidRS (POV)

CaptainSparklez

TrueMU

Deadlox

And a few more! (These aren't major in this chapter.)

The sun was setting just beyond the mountains to the -x coords. It would have been pretty, had I not been fending for my life. The squids had gotten stronger. Smarter, too.

I looked behind me to see my fallen kingdom. It looked kinda like that video the Captain had made earlier. Cringing, I remembered the fight.

~Flashback

I looked to my left to see CaptainSparklez standing there, using his own invention: the Slime Sword. Behind us were a small portion of my army, clearly named the Sky Army. Several of them had our signature garb: butter armor and swords. Others stuck to their diamond gear, as it did last longer.

In front of us were the gates; the only exit of the kingdom for the Army. Another exit was near my quarters, but that way was always locked from the inside and rarely used.

All we were doing was waiting for the enemy. A few days earlier, Deadlox shared with me a note that had been delivered to his mansion. Fortunately, the squids couldn't tell time well yet, so the note mentioned that Deadlox couldn't have gotten here in time, as we would already be taken down. That didn't happen. I was confused when he asked if they had attacked. The hadn't tried since they had stolen... I never liked to think about the day they had stolen Dawnables. Only a little while after that, she just up and left, only telling me that she didn't want to be around me anymore, as it would "put her in danger".

Captain had seen my discomfort and tried to help me through it when a sudden explosion came from the x tower. I quickly whirled around when another explosion sounded from near the -z tower. The enemy had arrived.

Several recruits raced towards the explosion. We had no formations; with no formations, the enemy was more confused. My higher-ups stood guard near me and we waited. Nothing happened. No more explosions. Not even anyone nearby to set off the explosions. Someone reported to me that they thought the explosions were caused by creepers, but I knew better. No creeper, not even super-charged, could have set off an explosion of that magnitude, let alone at that high off the ground.

"SQUID!" someone yelled.

"Move!" I ordered.

Captain stayed near my side in the mob of people. I unsheathed my butter sword, his sword already out. The gates exploded and the ground shook.

"SKYDOESMINECRAFT!" a menacing voice howled. Only the Squid Menace called me by that; my friends called me Sky or SkytheKid. Sometimes SkytheKidRS.

"You," I said simply.

"YES! Me! I see that you have been expecting us. But you won't expect... THIS!"

The invisible being opened a fissure in the middle of my kingdom. Recruit after recruit fell into the ravine. I was stricken with grief, as I had led them to their deaths.

"SKY!" a voice led me out of my trance.

I looked to my right where Sparkly was to see him falling in. His grip was slipping and his sword had already fallen.

"I gotcha, buddy!" I yowled to him.

"I'm scared..." he mumbled.

Without saying another word, I hauled him out of the pit. He flopped onto his stomach.

"Thanks. I owe ya one. I coulda died," he told me.

"How about that one is fighting along side me?" I said, trying to sound epic.

"Sure, but first, I might need a weapon. Mine's kinda, down there..." He told me, pointing down into the pit.

I grabbed a sword off of a fallen recruit, "Morbid, but hey. It works."

"This is a pretty good sword. Too bad the owner didn't get to use it. It's brand new," he told me, me seeming like I cared.

"Uh-huh. But we have to get going! Thank goodness we have a large milk supply!"

"What? Why?"

"You really think that squids can be invisible without a potion?"

"True. Where's that supply?"

"In the cellar."

We raced towards the hidden trap doors, hidden near the -x tower. I threw open the trap door and we went down the ladders. In here would be the milk.

"Uh, Sky?"

"What?"

"Where's the milk?"

"It should be in a giant tank in the middle of the room. 3/4 full if I remember."

"So it shouldn't be 2/3 full with squids?"

"WHAT?!" I raced over to the room. Cracks started spreading like cobwebs across the glass tank, "SHE'S GONNA BLOW!"

The ladders were straight in front of us. Both of us bee-lined to them and jumped up to the surface. Before us lied destruction. No living recruit showed their face. They might be able to respawn, but in doing so, they lose a memory. A memory I stole from them. In front of me, my kingdom had fallen to ruin. I dropped to my knees. Captain stood dumbfounded. All of my hard work had been destroyed by the most useless mob in Minecraft. A giant chasm ripped through the center of the kingdom. Blood smeared the walls.

"Sky..." CaptainSparklez said.

I had never done this before. I collapsed onto my stomach and cried.

~End

"Sky! Are you there!" I heard from my wrist communicator. Seth had come up with them for my friends and me to use.

"Yeah! I am. Whatcha need, TrueMU?"

"I found something near my base. Come quick. I've already notified the rest!"

Whenever he said "The Rest", I knew he meant business. Him being a perfectionist and all, he normally would have said each and every name.

"Sparkly?" I asked.

"Yeah?" he answered from behind a tree.

"We're going on a trip."

"Where?"

"The Moon Base."

We always have called TrueMU's base the Moon Base because he called his followers the Stars, and he wore a space suit. The wrist communicator could teleport, so we both chose our location and teleported.

His base was simple, mainly being made of iron. It also looked like a moon base, so another reason comes into place. Since we spawned outside of the structure, we entered.

"I'M HOME, MOM!" I yelled, opening the door, unable to help myself. I was commonly known as the comic relief in my group of friends.

Coming from the other room, I heard a voice," Heh. I see you've made it."

Sparkly and I stepped in the room to see a few familiar faces: Deadlox, Seto, TrueMU, SethBling, Ssundee, AntVenom, Jerome ASF, and BajanCanadian. Several of them had armor on and at least a stone sword. Jerome and Bajan had axes, which they called Betty. Both of the axes.

"Oh! Captain! You're here too! But, why do you guys look like crap?" Deadlox asked.

"Note," I said simply.

"Oh..."

"What note?" Seth asked.

"I got a note a while ago saying that the squid were going to attack," Deadlox told him.

"Either way, I think I found something all of you should see," TrueMU started, standing up," I was mining out another room for the Base when I found some weird portal. Looked like a completed end portal, except the portal itself was grey and the surrounding blocks looked like rotten flesh."

"Uh-huh..." I said, pondering.

"Here, follow me," TrueMU said.

We followed him through a maze of tunnels that made up the Base and suddenly, he stopped.

"This is the portal. I decided we'd be best if we went through. SethBling'll stay here in case we get trapped."

The portal was just as he described. I looked down at my attire. A butter helmet, iron chest plate, and diamond boots. No leggings. The others had better armor than me, except for Seth and Seto. Seth had nothing while Seto had a leather set.

"We had better get going. I kind of want to know what is on the other side. Ready?"

"Ready."

"You bet!"

"I think so."

"I hope so..."

"Nothing to lose. Geronimo!" With that, TrueMU jumped.

"Bombs away!"

I stepped back a bit. Taking a running start, I went through the portal. Everything went black.

Didja enjoy? Didja? Didja? Well, anyway, if ya did... Need I say more?

Well, just because I can... DISCLAMER!
