When Sky awoke, he was almost afraid to open his eyes. However, the unearthly, almost forbidding aura of the illusionist was not present. Slowly, he let the darkness ebb. Sitting crosslegged at the end of the bed where he lay was Dawn, watching over him with the gaze of a hawk. She looked straight into his eyes, before swinging her pink and purple-haired head to the left, then to the right, then back at Sky. With a slight squeal of happiness, she stood up and placed a pixelated, blocky hand to his forehead.

"Dawn..where the hell are we?" he asked as she nodded, smiling. She replied slowly, struggling for an explanation that wouldn't be as blatant as the one she'd been given. "Well, the illusionist..created this dimension, its a MineCraft world. And we are all trapped in it." she said, trying to be gentle.

She stood up, helping her husband to his feet. "You sure you are OK?" she asked. When he nodded, Dawn gave a satisfied grunt and went to the door, opening it with a classic *creak* and leaned out. "He's awake!" she called out, before closing the door. Sky, who hadn't heard her, resorted to walking around the wool building.

"So this is where you went?" Sky asked. Dawn nodded. "This is the hospital that I run. There are a few villagers here, that trade with us, but they live on a separate end of town." She explained, walking towards a cabinet. She pulled out a glowing reddish potion. Handing the Potion of Healing to him, Dawn pulled out a map of the town. The pink-purple haired woman invited her husband to sit at the table, where she spread it out.

"We are here, in the building with the wool cross on its roof. Across the way is Deadlox's house. And here is where he runs the armory," she pointed to a stone building adorned with a wool butter sword. "At the end of the street is the barracks. A few lucky members of the Sky Army were brought here, and that's where they stay most of the time. They are constantly coming in." she said.

Sky whistled to himself. "Huh. So I guess its not just us." he commented. Dawn shrugged, and continued.

"Right here is where Ethan lives." she pointed to a smallish hut on the end of a winding gravel path. "And over here is where Jason lived." she motioned to a hut with a large 'X' over it. Sky looked straight into her blue and green eyes. "Lived? As in, past tense? Where is Jason?" he asked, panic starting to rise. What if he got startled?

"Its ok. He's been working on his new house. A creeper found his house one night, and, well, you know the rest. His new house is nearest the castle, behind the barracks." Dawn looked towards a plot of land, with a scribble of 'TrueMU New House' over the top.

With a slight sigh, Sky questioned, "What about where you live?" Dawn's smile became a grin of mischief. "We live here. In the castle." she pointed to it. Although on the map it looked like a large blot of butter, the real thing would be revealed as truly majestic and well built. Dawn closed up the map, and no sooner than she did, there was a thud on the door. Sky wandered over and opened the door. Staring at him was a blocky man wearing a spacesuit.

"Jason. We were just talking about you." Dawn called from where she had her pink-purple haired head buried in a cabinet. She stood up, watching as Sky and Jason began to chatter on about what had happened. Her amused expression betrayed her fake annoyance as she said, "Boys, we need to head to the castle. No doubt that's where the others are going to be waiting."

Jason and Sky immediately stopped talking and both nodded. The latter followed his friend towards the castle, where a girl with bright, butter-colored hair stood, watching them with silver eyes. Dawn jumped in front of the others, approaching the silent girl. "He's here." she told the girl, who stepped aside, letting them pass, then walking behind them. She did not say a word.

Once inside, Sky took the chance to marvel at the beautiful castle. Made out of iron and stone, it had accents of butter and a large butter throne in the center room. The courtyard was filled with butter flowers and a fountain made of butter and stone. Dawn and Jason smiled to each other, while Sky walked slowly towards the throne, crooning "Butter..." to himself as he sat down.

The strange, silent girl from earlier stood before him. She, Dawn, and Jason bowed before Sky, and the girl spoke in a voice all too familiar.

"Welcome. King and Commander Sky, you have taken the throne to your castle and will lead your army from here. That is why I have brought you here."

Sky's eyes widened as his eyesight 'glitched.' For a moment, he could see the dark aura of the illusionist.


AN: 851 words this time! Not bad for not being able to count them as I went. The glitching with Sky's eyesight is hard to explain, but the illusionist's powers affect him in a way that it didn't affect the others; he can now sense the aura surrounding the Illusionist (a dark blue), Herobrine (black), the Ender Dragon (dark purple), the Wither (grey) and the spirit of Notch (white).

I might be accepting a few OC's, so you can send them in if you like.

Object*:

The 'Object' is the object that the illusionist used to bring them to her home. Ex. Sky's Amulet for Sky, Dawn's red gloves (the ones her skin wear) for Dawn, Headphones for Deadlox, etc. Usually an item on their minecraft skin.

The Dark Faction consists of dark characters such as the Illusionist, Herobrine, the Ender Dragon, the Wither, etc. I'll very rarely accept these.
