Everytime I heard 'Chasing Storm' and 'More than this', I thought of those sad, sad Vikklan fanfictions I'd read. Reasons? I'm listening to these two songs while I read, so they are kind of planted in my head. Same for a selected few Korean musics. When I listened to 'I got a boy', I thought of the Minecraft classic server that was closed. I had a great time there :( Enjoy the story anyway.

Skydoesminecraft POV

They really should stop knocking us out.

I woke up in a room made of stone bricks, all by myself. The room is three blocks to three blocks, and is the same height. In the middle of the room is an orb, which is glowing blue and purple and white. I put my hand on it, and a voice spoke in my head.

Speak, hero. Bring forth your question.

I pulled my hand away immediately. This is creepier than those horror maps that I've played. At least I knew that something is going to jump scare me.

I stared at the orb, unsure whether to put my hand back on it. The orb told me to ask a question, didn't it? How in the world could an orb solve my question?

I placed my hand on the orb and found myself floating in pure darkness. Somehow, I knew that the darkness wasn't hostile. It doesn't intend to swallow me. It just wants to have a little chat. Funny.

I looked around. Floating is hard to pinpoint direction. I don't like to speak to someone with my butt facing them. Still, they didn't tell me where they are, so I guess it doesn't matter.

"What's my destiny?" I asked, guessing at the same time. Maybe I'll get eaten by spiders as soon as this is over. Or maybe I'll get skewered by some unknown being. Either way, I was curious. Who won't want to know about their future?

Instead of a poem-like prophecy, something shimmered in front of me. A square portal opened, and a guy in teal-colored T-shirt and blue jeans stepped out of the portal. He looks exactly like those Steve fan arts online, but he wasn't THAT muscular. His eyes are white and glowing, like mine.

My son. He reached out and brushed my cheek. It feels warm, with the feeling of electricity. You've grown. Last I saw you, you were 3.

"Where have you been?" I asked. I adapted to the fact that Herobrine is my father really quick. "Why did you send me away instead of protecting me?"

Tears welled up in his eyes. I can't. He said. I could've put you in the safe house, but brother cracked the seal on it. Plus, I have to keep the Nether in order. Even the slightest strange noise could throw the whole place in havoc.

I softened a little. "I was happy with my life, anyway," I sighed. "I married, too, and had a son. Not sure what I should call him, though. The others are telling me to name him Tyler,"

How about Mason? Herobrine suggested. I was going to name you that, but that name is too normal. That's why I named you Skydoesminecraft.

"Wait a second," I held up my hand. "You are telling me that my YouTube name is actually my real name,"

Quite right. Herobrine said cheerfully. I actually found time to stalk your channel, you know. He laughed. You are good at capturing peoples' attention.

"Let me guess," I said. "Then you are going to tell me to round up all my subscribers and fight alongside you,"

That would be helpful. Herobrine tilted his head, as if he's considering the option. But most of your subscribers are kids. I'm not sure that would help much.

"Okay, first off, whose side are you on?" I asked. "Probably on the Wither's side?"

His eyes dimmed. He wanted this world to be destroyed. He said. I want to preserve it. I still want my sons to see this world... and improve it. Why would I on the bad side?

"Cause that's how the others said," I explained. "You are the villain in the community,"

That is on Earth, I bet? He smirked. I trashed up Notch's favorite garden once. Must be the reason why he put me into the game as a villain.

"Actually, a player put it in," I corrected. "Then Notch had it on all their merch and drawings. Everyone that knows Minecraft knows you, too,"

Herobrine just shrugged. I might be the villain on Earth, but I'm not one in this world. He leaned close to me. You can trust me, and I won't want to lie to my own son.

"I'll trust you… for now," I agreed. "But now that I'm here, what do I do? What should all of us do?"

Find something even stronger that our seal. Herobrine said. And reseal him again. All of you can banish him too, though I don't know how. Only Notch knows, but he spends all his time on Earth, enjoying. He stomped his feet like a 5 years old kid.

"He could recreate this world, can't he?" I asked. "I mean, he created this world. If it's destroyed, he can always make a new one,"

You don't understand, Sky. He turned to me. The two worlds are linked. If this world is destroyed, the other one would disappear too. Everything related would be reduced to dust and ceases to exist.

"That was reassuring," I mumbled, kicking my legs. "So we have to defeat him or we die?"

Exactly. Herobrine smiled. Hardcore mode.

"But we'd never fight in our lives!" I yelled. "How are we gonna defeat this immortal guy?"

Mob. Herobrine corrected. All of you will get some training along the way to your destination; I'll make sure of that. And how you're gonna defeat the Wither is up to all of you.

"Great," I looked up and noticed that his figure is dissolving. "Wait, are you dying?"

No, son. He said. Just have to go. If you want to talk to me again, just sleep while hugging the orb you see earlier. With that, he disappeared. I was surrounded in darkness once again.

Neonz POV

I got to speak to my mum, which is actually an UR-Ghast. She told me that she is too busy and there's nowhere safe here for me and I have to get sent away. Duh. Why didn't the entire legacy of gods send us away when Kim is 3? That would be much easier.

Before she had to go or whatsoever, she gave me a ring and told me to put it in my mouth and sleep when I want to see her. According to her, it is made of steelwood. Pretty sure that I would swallow it and choke myself.

I woke up in a plain-looking sitting room. It has a fireplace and a lot of couches of different colors. The others on our team are either awake or still out, and all are taking one double-seated couch each. Aquarius found a thick book somewhere, and is reading it intently. She won't be going anywhere in a few hours.

"You're awake," A villager in white robes served me a cup of tea. "All of you fainted on my doorstep, so I figured that I take you in,"

"Oh," I felt weak, so that's what I answered. I managed to sit up and hold the cup, but that's it. I don't have any extra strength to say anything.

"What are you reading, Aquarius?" Rob asked from across the room. Somehow, he found a pillow to hug, and it looks extra comfy. Right after he asked, it took exactly 10 seconds for her to answer, and she even answers it with a 'hmph?'

Rob asked again, and she took a look at the cover. "It's called 'The Legends'. It's all about the legends in this world,"

"Suits your taste perfectly, I'd say," I finished the cup of tea. It replenished my strength.

"I'd prefer Percy Jackson," She answered, turning back to the book once again. "This would work as well,"

We tried talking to her again, but she answers no more. The priest allowed us to explore the tower, so I teamed up with Poofless and Rex. I'd never know about the ship name for those two until Aquarius told me a few weeks ago. When we walked around in the tower, the two goofed around, constantly pushing each other into the wall. The tower is old already, and I'm afraid that they would bring the whole building down anytime soon.

They calmed down anyway as we entered a room that looks a lot like a witch's hut. Bottles of potions lined the shelves, chests filled with materials, a magic circle with an altar and a book of spells on a lectern.

Poofless explored the room while Rex and I approached the lectern. The book is written in that enchanting table language, and as I watched, Rex opened the book and started reading it without any help.

"What the heck?" I gasped. "You are reading this without problem? This is like my sister's handwriting!"

"I don't know," He said, his eyes not leaving the book. "It's like Aquarius reading the Fantasian Alphabet off Geronimo Stilton's books, I guess. The difference is that I don't have to study the letters beforehand," He then took an empty pocket notebook out of his pocket and started writing down whatever he was reading, but in normal letters, thank goodness. It seems like some kind of spell.

"The priest might kill us for this, you know," I said just as something crashed in a corner. Preston just knocked down a corrosive potion, and its contents are eating its way through the flooring. Great. Now the priest will kill us for sure.

"What are you guys doing?" I stormed towards the two. "Can't you guys stay still or not stir up trouble?"

"I didn't!" Preston retorted. "I calmed down, and was reading these labels-" He gestured at the potions on the shelves. "-when Rob bumped into me! You should ask him too!"

"I was trying to reach that box," Rob pointed at a cherry-colored box sitting on the top shelf. "Then I lost my balance. That's it,"

I facepalmed. I was thinking up something to say when the priest ran into the room, almost tripping on the carpet.

"What happened?" He asked, looking around. Then he noticed us standing by a corroded floor. Immediately, he rushed to our side.

"Are you hurt?" He asked, checking our skin for any injuries. When we said that we are okay, he calmed down.

"Aren't you angry?" I asked. "We kind of messed up your place…"

"It's okay," He waved his hand. "I was going to throw away that vial anyway. I'm okay as long as you are not hurt,"

Rex closed the book he was reading and came over to us, slipping his notebook back into his pocket as he did so. "Are the others awake yet?" He asked the priest. "We really have to get going,"

"They are all up now," The priest confirmed. "I just contacted NickJr and heard your problems. I'll brief you on that,"
