It's been maybe three months of this secret relationship with Petra. It's exhilarating, having a secret that no one else knows. I am so ready to be together publicly, but I won't do anything she's not comfortable with. Anyway, we have a new mission. Gabriel came out of a cave with Magnus unconscious over his shoulder. He gave us a tip to a desert temple. He sent us there, and we're here now. Looking down, I can see the pressure plate that will trigger nine TNT blocks. I get a little nervous. I decide the best way to deal with it is to go straight down there. I start digging a stairway out of the wall. Olivia and Jesse (Jesse is Female Jesse, OK?) follow my lead. Axel stays behind with Petra. It's going great, up until about six blocks off the floor. Axel's fishing things out of his inventory and he drops a wood plank over the edge. It falls right onto the pressure plate, and the TNT explodes. I fly up, being in front of the girls, and take the most damage. They each take a heart, while I take five. I try to get up, and I can't. That's when I realize that there was something weird about that TNT. I sit back, then realize I'm not too far from Axel and Petra, who are staring at me in horror. Finally, they come to their senses and crawl over to me. I thank them, and they hoist me up by my shoulders.
