Welcome back readers, I hope a week isn't too long of a wait between updates. I can't do daily updates, and I most certainly cannot do monthly updates(I.E. I'll end up forgetting about this story for the other 2 stories I'm currently writing). Good news though, I'm writing these in quick succession, and have at least 4 chapters(Including this one and chapter 1) already pre-written for the ease of me. I have an update schedule planned:

Every Saturday at 1-1:30 P.M. PST(Pacific Standard Time) there will likely be a new chapter. It corresponds with when I posted the first chapter. And I will make a personal note to not update early, as doing so forces me to rush, and when I rush there's less quality and chapter's will end up shorter.

Announcements aside, here's the next chapter!


Chapter 2:

A larger Conflict arises.

No Point of View


Silver and Sydney had been carried to a nearby castle in the forest, where people with rifles and bows were holding ground against the army of werewolves in the forest. Skyla was carrying Sydney and Cece was carrying Silver. The two of them put the unconscious duo safely deep inside the castle, in a sealed room.

After closing the door, Cece shouted angrily.

"Are you ok?" Skyla asked in her gentle tone.

"NO! I'M NOT OKAY!" Cece yelled in Skyla's faces in response.

They walked into another room in the castle, where two figures sat at a rectangular table in the center of the room, one at the head of the table and one to the left. The one at the head of the table was a woman with green colored skin and clothing, and the other was a tall and pale girl with a quiver of crossbow bolts slung over her shoulder.

"How are things going so far?" The green woman asked Cece as she entered the room.

"Freaking Passivians have gained more ground than expected. It's safe to assume they're pulling out all the stops to get this outpost." Cece replied in an upset tone, sitting down in the chair to the right of the woman.

"Greetings Skyla, have you finally changed your mind about our proposal?" The woman asked in a rude tone.

Skyla nodded and frowned.

"I've told you already, Silicia. My sister and I are indifferent to this stupid conflict of yours. And I'll be damned if you think I'll EVER change my mind." Skyla said with a glare.

"Then do you care to explain why you suddenly appeared as soon as the Passivians entered our territory? It seems oddly suspicious." The woman dubbed Silicia questioned Skyla more, and she seemed to have an ulterior motive.

"You think I'd help those beasts?"

"It sure as hell seems that way considering you two were inactive for the two weeks before this event."

"I wouldn't. The only reason we were on the surface was to save the man in the cell down stairs."

At this comment, the woman was intrigued.

"Sierra, go down into the cell and bring the man up here." She said with a sly grin. The girl with the quiver nodded and left the room.

Cece put on a look of apathy as she leaned back in the seat, scowling. Skyla crossed her arms and stood on her feet, not daring to sit at the table. A few minutes passed in silence before Silicia got curious.

"Say, how did that man even get down there? I know there are portals and all, but there are VERY few ways to actually get down there." She asked in her sly tone.

"I don't know. I think... I think he spawned there." Skyla pinched her chin.

"Impossible. There's no spawnpoint underground, let alone at that depth." Cece said with a growl.

The three of them thought for a moment before coming to a silent conclusion.

"Only two type of players have unnatural spawn points. Mobs, and humans from the real world." Silicia grinned evilly upon reaching this conclusion. Skyla's eyes widened and Cece smirked.

"And he is no Mob, that I'm sure of." Cece said slyly.

"So I'm special then? Nice." Silver said happily as he was forced into the room by Sierra, who had a crossbow drawn.

"That remains to be seen. What is your name, boy?" Silicia asked, pointing to him in a surprised matter.

Silver chuckled lightly, not bothering to answer.

"Well?" Silicia asked once again, her patience drying quickly. Silver didn't answer, he just smirked at her.

"Show some respect, boy." Cece got up from her chair and walked up to him, putting a finger on his chest angrily. However this caused him to laugh even more, as he easily loomed over her through the height difference.

"It's alright, Cece, if he doesn't want to tell us his name he can be put back into the cell." Silicia said, trying to regain herself from the irritated mood Silver had put her in.

"I'm not one to act edgy, but I would like to ask a few questions before I reveal my name." Silver said as he stepped around Cece.

"What kind of questions?" Silicia asked him in responds.

"Only three. First question: what is the name of this world?" Silver asked, tugging at his restraints a little.

"Right, suppose you wouldn't know quite yet. Well, welcome to the world of Minecraftia, aside from that our world doesn't have much depth into naming it's continent." Silicia answered without rejection.

"Second question: what's the deal with you people? You seem to think I'm special." He asked yet another question.

"We are the Hostilites. A group of people who used to be feared by the masses as the things that go bump in the night. All too recently, those who feared us have stopped doing so, and we've banded together in a massive army to regain the recognition. You in particular are more than likely here to play a part in a prophecy." Silicia answered bluntly.

"So... you're the good guys who want to be the bad guys? Nice. Third and final question: what's the deal with all your weapons? Do all of you have to summon them?"

"The weapons Sierra and Cece have are known as Forger Weapons. As you can probably tell by the summoning chant, they are weapons that are manifested through the soul of an individual, with each one being unique." Silicia pointed to the two in the room with their weapons out.

"Alright, questions answered. My name is-" Silver was interrupted by a soldier bashing open the door and screaming.

"Can't you see we're busy?!" Cece asked, glaring at the soldier. The man was wearing a thick bone-looking armor and had a simple sword and circle shield.

"Miss, we're-" He was cut short by an arrow flying through his skull, his body fell limp into the room and Silver tugged at his restraints a little more.

"SHIT!" Cece kicked the body away from the door and slammed it shut."We gotta move!"

"Sydney..." Skyla panicked and rushed towards the door.

Silver extended a hand to stop her, as he had freed himself of his restraints.

"I'll get her, you focus on finding us a way out of here." He said, pulling Cece away from the door and opening it. He picked up the sword from the soldier but left the shield.

"What the hell are you doing?" Sierra asked, shooting at an enemy behind him.

"The only sensible thing since I got here: saving someone." Silver quickly shut the door on himself and turned to face the oncoming enemies.

The four girls all stood in disbelief.

"Well damn. Suppose we can use the tunnels..." Cece said with slight disappointment. She approached a wall covered in book shelves, and pulled one of the books to open a door. She then walked into the tunnel that had opened up.

"Skyla, what reason could he have had to save your sister?" Sierra asked in her calm tone.

"I don't know myself, but whatever it is he seems determined." Skyla said, following Cece into the tunnel.


Silver's POV


"Well that was eventful. Time to save a damsel in distress." I thought to myself.

The area around me was surrounded by dead bodies and berserk werewolves, and people with golden armor. I had to move quickly if I wanted to make it out of this alive.

One of the werewolves noticed and charged at me, swinging it's fists stupidly. I was easily able to evade the punches and disable it by slicing at it's upper spine.

"Aight, who's next?" I asked, as a pair of werewolves glared at me, signaling others to focus on the surrounding soldiers.

"You've made a terrible mistake, human." A womanly voice said behind the werewolves. I watched as a woman wearing barely any clothing, aside from a grey bikini and an interesting looking gauntlet on her right arm stepped in front of the giant bipedal wolves. She had silver hair like mine, and blood red eyes. She also had... wolf ears and a tail...

"Really? Cause from my perspective your clothing looks like a mistake." I replied back, flipping my sword to backhand.

I rushed at her, swiping the sword at her. She grabbed the sword with her gauntlet, guarding from the attack without much effort. She tightened her grip and pulled the sword from my grasp and threw it away. Upon closer inspection, the sword's blade was utterly crushed.

"That's some strength you got there." In an immediately timed decision, I ran in front of her, quickly taking down and incapacitating one of the werewolves by snapping it's neck and taking it's sword and shield. The other one tried to attack me, but I ducked under the swing and slit it's wrist before it could make it's second move.

She didn't waste even a second in her next attack, launching her gauntlet-clad fist towards me as I lifted the shield to block her attack. The damage from the punch was minimized, but the steel shield had shattered as soon as she hit it. I followed up by hitting her open left shoulder with the hilt end of my sword, successfully dislocating her shoulder. Wincing in pain, she jumped backwards, creating an impressively large distance between us.

"You're dangerous, despite barely having picked up a sword for only a third time today." She complimented me, as she snapped her shoulder back into place.

"Thanks! I would give you a compliment back, but you've pretty much done my job for me." I turned and sprinted away as fast as I could. I was, after all, on the other side of her. I figured fighting her would be obsolete anyway, so long as she had that super strength.

"Don't let him get away!" The girl shouted behind me, as a group of werewolves stood in front of me and the exit to the outside of the castle.

Luckily, that wasn't where I was going. I sprinted towards the stairs that led down to the castle's basement and dungeon. One of the werewolves charged at me, but was shot in the back by a flying arrow sent by a soldier.

I made my way down the stairs, and once I got to the bottom I rushed around the underground halls. I turned a corner and saw the door that Sydney would be behind. The ceiling gave out behind me, as the girl from before faced me.

"Get back here." She said, her eyes literally glowing red as the gauntlet on her hand seemed to pulse with a weird looking energy. I didn't stop running until I reached the door, I pressed the button to open the door and jumped into the room, but not before smashing the button to open it.

The metal door closed behind me as the wolf-girl rammed into the door. I took a breath, knowing the door would be strong enough to keep her at bay.

"Took you long enough." Sydney said in a sarcastic tone. She was sitting across from me with her arms crossed over her chest.

"You try... taking on... an army... ugh." I was out of breath, and barely got my retort out.

"Nah, I'm good. So, how're we getting out of here?"

"I have... no idea. PHEW!" I stood up, regaining my posture. Sydney sighed and got to her feet."But whatever we do, we have to do it quick."

"Well we're shit outta luck unless we can manage digging our way out. Oh wait. Come to me, contents of the soul! Forger Weapon: Spider's Eye!" Sydney chanted, as a pair of night vision goggles appeared out of thin air.

"And that's supposed to help us... how?"

"Dumby... my Forger Weapon lets me have X-ray vision!" She said cheerfully, looking about my figure creepily. I held my hand over my crotch as she began to drool.

"Aren't you... like, 8? Stop that."

"10. And no, your body is like a magnet for my eyes." She said, wiping away the drool on her lip.

I scowled in disgust before the door was hammered upon once again, presumably by the wolf-girl. I put my ear up to the door, as I heard her growling furiously.

"Shit... Sydney, whatever you're gonna do, do it now." I said, gripping the sword in my hand.

"Gimme a sec." She turned and looked around, looking up and down the walls."This place used to be a temporary human prison, they would keep people who were accused but not proven to have committed crimes here until they were fully done with their trial. Although considering the humans weren't usually found innocent, even if they were, they would try to dig their way out of these cells using their bare hands."

She kicked the far wall, knocking down the two blocks easily.

"Fake stone..." I was more or less impressed, she seemed pretty smart in her own right.

"Brittle brick, actually. It's created when you freeze cobblestone as opposed to melting it. It's quite handy when you're trying to hide stuff." Sydney said, walking into the hole in the wall."Come on!"

I nodded and followed after her, as the metal door was hammered once again from the other side. This subsequently made me move faster into the tunnel behind Sydney.

We rushed through the winding tunnel, Sydney leading the way with her night-vision goggles. I had to use my hands to guide my path, as it was pitch black. After considering what happened a moment earlier, I kept my hands to the walls rather than letting them wander ahead of me. After a few seconds of this, I was able to see some light in the distance, but I was stopped in my tracks when I bumped into Sydney.

I could hear her shift about before she rubbed her hands on my face.

"Hey there handsome." She said in a perverted tone.

I sighed and forced passed her, picking her up and walking through the tunnel carefully. Eventually, we made it out of the blasted tunnels. Outside was the same campsite as before.

"SYDNEY!" I heard Skyla's voice to my right, I turned my head and was met with a tackle, which inevitably forced me to drop drop Sydney.

"Hold still motherfucker, or I'll blast your head off!" Cede shouted angrily, as I could feel the barrel of her blunderbuss against my back.

"Cece, calm down. We need to get as far away from this area as possible." The green woman from before said, trying to calm the girl on top of me.

I looked up to her, only to be created by the woman's lack of underwear.

"What is with all you perverted females?" I asked as Cece stepped off of me."Thank you."

"Right. Let's go." Cece turned to walk away, signaling Sierra, Sydney, Skyla and the woman, who's name I still had yet to learn, to follow her.

"Later!" Sydney said, waving to Cece and the others. She had stepped away from them and towards me.

"Sydney, come on, we're going home." Skyla said in an assertive tone, but Sydney shook her head in response."Sydney."

"Nope! You guys can go do whatever you gotta do, but I'm not leaving Silver by himself."

The little girl actually managed to surprise me, not only was she defying the only evident authority figure she likely had, but she also urged wanted to stay with me. Although, as flattering as it was, I couldn't let this slide. I stood up to my feet, as Sydney crossed her arms.

"Uh-uh, you're going with them." I said to her, pushing her towards the other females.

"Whoa, hey! I'm not going with them!" She said in a pouty tone.

"Ohoh the hell you aren't. Go on, go. I can handle myself."

"No you can't!" Sydney said, the sound of sadness gaining in her voice. I turned away from them, towards the castle over the hill.

"True, without a Forger Weapon it'd be difficult to defend yourself against threats." The green woman's voice stopped me in my tracks. However the affect didn't last, as I continued walking.

"No!" Sydney let out a cry as she latched onto my leg.

"Oi. Off." I said, trying to shake her off of me.

"No." She replied, puffing her cheeks.

I looked to the other females, who seemed rather entertained by this except for Skyla.

"Skyla? Care to give me a hand?" I asked, but got no response.

"If my sister wants something badly enough, she'll cling to it for dear life. Not you or I can change that. So I suggest you man up and take us both."

My eyes widened, then I let out a sigh.

"Hear that Sid? You're coming with me. So please, let go of my le-OH MY!" I quickly shoved the little girl off me, as I felt a hand other than my own rub my crotch section. However, the feeling didn't stop even after I kicked her off.

"My my, no wonder she's clinging to you." The green woman pushed her body up against mine, groping my crotch."My name is Silicia by the way, I don't think we've been properly acquainted."

"That's not the reason!" Sydney frowned, upset at the assumption against her character.

I shoved the woman off me.

"Look, I wouldn't mind 'that', and all... but right now is not the time." I said, glaring at Silicia to stop.

"Indeed. I suppose we'll have to wait for another time the-en" She coughed, spewing blood out of her mouth. I looked at her, and noticed that almost half her stomach was completely gone.

"SILICIA!" Cece shouted, crying for her friend.

"And thus ends the life of a cowardice Hostilite, it's a shame too considering her prowess and that waste of a body." I heard and unfamiliar voice ring from behind me.

I turned around quickly to face a woman wearing all white, a white dress, white armor plating on her arms and legs and white shoes. She was floating several feet above the ground, with a fireball formed in one hand, and a rapier-style sword in the other.

I readied my sword, but it was quickly grabbed and pulled away from me.

"You've caused me a lot of trouble, human, you realize that?" The wolf-girl's voice was audible to me as I was immediately lifted off the ground by my neck.

"SILVER! LET HIM GO!" Sydney cried, rushing towards the wolf-girl.

"You know your place, little one." The woman in white dropped down in front of Sydney.

Cece roared in anger, firing her weapon at the girl holding me by my neck. The shots were blocked by a mysterious barrier that now surrounded me and the girl.

"I kinda want to kill you. But... you're too valuable to my faction. Wait... w-what are you doing?" She asked, as I moved my hands around.

I had reached for one of her breasts and squeezed it, using my other hand to keep myself from choking. She squealed in embarrassment and dropped me. I jumped away and out of the barrier, disarming the woman in white.

"HAH! You think you can use my Nether Sword?" She asked, fireballs forming in both her hands.

"Damn right." I said, holding the sword in the proper stance. I had dabbled in sword play when I was younger, thinking it was the coolest thing in the world.

The fireballs vanished, as the woman looked very confused. I looked around, and saw that she wasn't the only one.

"Well? Are we going to fight or not?" I asked, rushing forwards to stab the girl with her own sword. She flew up into the air, evading my attack.

"Indeed, it seems you CAN wield my sword. Whether or not with skill, we have yet to se-" I interrupted her before she finished, jumping straight into the air, slashing at her cheek. I noticed something, the gravity in this world was slightly weaker than that of my home world, allowing me to jump 10 feet into the air even without my full strength.

"Just shut up already." I said as I pulled the sword back for a thrust. She read my movements and moved to the side to avoid the potential strike. I jabbed the sword forwards quickly, as she tried to grab my wrist. However I was fast enough to pull my own hand back fast enough to where she cut her palm.

"So irritating." She said with a pained growl.

I landed on the ground below, swinging the sword to remove the blood.

"Likewise." I said back, as she landed a few feet away from me.

She looked over the other people around us, including the wolf-girl. I readied the sword in my hands, but was instead greeted by her smiling.

"It's obvious I cannot win in this situation, you humans have proven time and time again to be more powerful than any other being in Minecraftia. As such I will ask kindly, please, come with me and my friend here." She requested with a polite bow.

"I'm kinda indifferent to these people anyway, but I gotta ask: what would you gain from me anyway?" I asked, tossing the sword away without much of a care.

In all honesty, I haven't been killing the werewolves, even the one where I slit it's wrists. The veins on those creatures were incredibly strong, like steel almost. Sydney walked up to me, hiding behind my back and holding onto my shirt. Skyla approached the both of us cautiously.

"SHE JUST KILLED MY COMRADE! Why... why are you so open to her surrender now?" Cece asked, enraged at me.

"Considering the first thing YOU did was take me prisoner, and your constant need to have a gun on my face, I see no reason why I should trust you either." I said back at her with a glare."So, are you going to answer me?"

"In short, you being able to wield my sword is nothing normal. We can also provide you with proper housing and help you come to better understand this world. And, despite your violent response, we are willing to understand that it was self-defense. We attacked first and we are prepared to deal with the consequences." Her tone became elegant, and she leveled her head.

I looked to Sydney and Skyla for assurance. While both seemed to have mixed feelings, Sydney nodded, while Skyla crossed her arms and stared at me without an answer.

"That still doesn't answer my question. Do you intend to use me as a weapon?" She seemed to be dodging the real answer I was looking for.

"For lack of better word: yes. But please, do take that with a grain of salt."

That response more or less told me these people were barely capable of being trusted, even if they did plan to use me as a weapon, a double edged sword is just as likely a case for them if they choose to take me in. So, for now, I decided to trust them, even against the other's better judgement.

"And for them?" I pointed to Cece and Sierra, who were now surrounded by armed werewolves and men in literal wolf costumes with bows and broad swords.

"They will obviously be taken in as prisoners-"

"Hold that thought. If we're going to be in agreement, I want them to be within the same treatment situation as myself. Unless... you would want me to decline your request?" I asked precariously. She flinched when I did so, beads of sweat appearing on her terribly pale face.

The wolf-girl behind her hid her eyes under her curved bangs, hiding most of her face from my vision as the pale woman turned to her, presumably for guidance. She whispered into the wolf-girl's ears, as her tail began to wag back and forth. It was... incredibly furry, and was almost mesmerizing, both me and Sydney were utterly enraptured in the fluffiness swaying back and forth before our eyes. Before I could completely lose myself, like Sydney had, the pale woman stepped away from the wolf-girl and spoke in a still slightly broken tone.

"Ve-very well, the Hostilites will receive the same treatment. However I cannot guarantee their safety on our base grounds. As you have already seen, the werewolves can get quite violent, in more ways than one." She said, a lack of confidence obviously present in her voice as it cracked after almost every other word.

We both nodded in agreement, as I noticed Silicia's body moving ever so slightly, the blood being absorbed into the now apparent slime that covered... er, made up her body. After it was all gathered up, the wound she had healed almost instantly.

"Bitch." Silicia rose to her feet, scowling at the pale woman angrily.

"Worthless pile of mucus." The woman retorted back.

These two groups of people obviously didn't like each other, and I was currently their main conflict. Whatever these people saw in my ability to wield a simple sword, I'm interested to find out more.


End of chapter

Silver seems a lot smarter than he originally led on, is he just stupidly luck? Or is he an impressive negotiator? Find out in the next chapter:

Chapter 3: Information Central: The Library.


And so, I finished yet another chapter. These puppies are gonna be a MINIMUM of 4000 words each, so even you readers over on Wattpad should be satisfied with this. In all honesty I'm putting all my efforts into writing and finishing this, so far as of May 30th, I'm 2 chapters into my 4-5 chapter goal of having chapters pre-written.

Though, I might just finish the story BEFORE then... I dunno, maybe, maybe not. But you guys likely won't be seeing this till around December(My confirmed release month, if not sooner).

I hope you all enjoyed this weeks(?) chapter, hope you all read the next one.
