"KP holds the frontlines and I'll support him with my bow, Honeydew we can use this planet's physics to build that thing you always wanted!" As Xephos said the plan Honeydew's face had a huge grin. "I'm on it!" He said. KP couldn't help but be worried, he knew how destructive the dwarf could be. "What DID he always want?" Xephos chuckled. "You'll see soon enough. Now let's do this! I'll try to get the ponies to safety." Twilight interfered at that moment. "If something's threatening Ponyville I want to help!" Xephos sighed and said. "Just be careful I don't want any civilians hurt by the end of this."
Everyone got into their positions. Honeydew and Fluttershy were building an odd contraption, Xephos was on the semi-built roof aiming his bow and arrow and KP was on the frontlines with Twilight. "Hero! Are you sure this will work?" KP asked. Lewis let out a laugh and answered. "I have no idea!" Twilight and KP exchanged worried looks. KP thought that the pressure of Minecraftia depending on him had finally caught Xephos.
Not much time later the zombies and creepers finally got there. "Ugh… Kill everything… For master Israphel!" Commanded Zombie_Boss "Blow up everything!" Said Creeper_Boss to his minions". The zombies all answered in unison "Yes… boss…" And the creepers answered the only way they could, they hissed.
As the first zombie charged (surprisingly fast for a zombie) he got immediately headshot by Xephos who taunted "Take that you filthy bastard!" The zombies and creepers were coming at amazing speeds but KP was easily slashing through them with his father's sword, it's an iron sword but still incredibly good.
As he was slashing trough the zombies and creepers he heard a voice behind him and an awfully familiar hiss. "Die… Antioch!" As he turned around both the zombie and the creeper got hit by a purple blast of energy. KP looked at Twilight since none of the heroes could do that and Twilight was the only pony in the front lines. He thanked her and continued.
As the battle went on a yell was heard from the distance, it was Honeydew. "IT'S READY!" As he heard that Xephos immediately told KP and Twilight to retreat. As they complied Xephos said to Honeydew. "FIRE!" A huge catapult-like mechanism launched a giant ball of TNT to the incoming horde. At the right time Xephos fired an arrow activating the TNT making it explode as soon as it touched the ground.
Evaluating their losses Creeper_Boss and Zombie_Boss retreated to the Everfree. The heroes had made it. As they were celebrating their victory with some beer Honeydew had in his inventory (Why? Because he is a dwarf nuff' said.) they saw 4 more ponies approaching. A cyan one with rainbow mane, an orange one with yellow mane, a white one with purple mane and a pink one with a pink mane the heroes found it odd that she was bouncing in that situation.
"Ya'll ok?" The orange pony asked. "Did you see that explosion it was like BOOM!" The pink pony started talking enthusiastically and Honeydew leaned over to KP and Xephos saying. "See? She is a pony and she likes explosions! Why can't you learn to love a bomb?" Both KP and Xephos looked at him annoyed. Then the cyan Pegasus started flying right in front of Xephos' face and said. "Are you the ones who caused that explosion?" She seemed angry but Xephos kept calm and answered. "We had to." KP continued. "The village was going to be attacked by Zombie_Boss and Creeper_Boss, that explosion was the only way we could take out their troops." As he finished Twilight and the other ponies appeared near them and she said. "It's true Rainbow, there were a lot, but I think you owe us an explanation 'heroes'."
When they turned around they saw something that left them all shocked. A creature, its skin looked like lava and it had the face of a creeper. It was dragging itself towards the heroes and had a strange bow with a red aura on its back. Xephos got startled and aimed his bow at the thing asking. "What in the Nether is that thing?" KP did a gesture to step Xephos from firing an arrow. "I think it's trying to speak." The creature got to its knees and coughed. It then said slowly. "Help… me!" It then passed out. Fluttershy instantly got worried and flew to the strange being. Although his skin looked like lava it felt like regular skin and this was a bit odd. Fluttershy said urgently. "We need to take it inside quick!" Tough they hesitated a bit the heroes took the creature to their shelter that was now finished.
When the creature woke up it was glad the people he saw decided to help but then he felt something in its throat. "Tell us what you are now!" It turned around to see KP holding a sword along with 2 other minecraftians by him and 6 ponies with horrified looks on their faces. "What are you doing? He hasn't done anything wrong!" Said Twilight. Xephos turned to her and said. "That face in our planet means creepers and creepers mean trouble!" The creature cleared its throat. Everyone in the room looked at it. "I am a minecraftian, you can call me Bowtastic. I am one of Herobrine's failed experimentations, a lava creeper. He was going to use me to unleash chaos but I developed a conscience and ran away from him. I wandered around and met Verigan_Antioch. He taught me to fight to protect and not to destroy. From that moment forward I started wandering everywhere and fight Israphel and Herobrine anyway possible. I got teleported by some kind of portal so I expected to end up in the Nether!" KP, Xephos and Honeydew looked at each other. "I don't quite believe that story." Said Xephos. They looked back at Bowtastic. "You're still a creeper. I don't know if we can trust you." The ponies looked at them. "Well then let him gain our trust. It seems fair enough." Twilight said. She turned to the ponies who all nodded except for Pinkie who was already planning the party for the newcomers. "That's good to hear! Wait… Where is Firehawk?"
Bowtastic started looking franticly for the bow, suddenly he saw KP holding out a bow with a red aura. Bowtastic bolted to it hugging the bow. "You really like that thing." RD said jokingly. "It's been my only friend in about 4 years. I even gave it a name: Firehawk, the Phoenix Bow. It's my signature weapon in my fights against evil, my most loyal friend and it has become a part of me. Verigan gave it to me before going to The Sands. Meanwhile I became the greatest archer in Minecraftia!" The ponies gasped. "You've had no friends in 4 years? All you had was a bow?" They said in unison surprised. "When you're made of lava and you have the face of a creeper people don't think you're the friendliest of guys." Rarity then said. "I guess you owe us a detailed explanation." Bowtastic and the heroes nodded. "Maybe tomorrow I'm getting tired." Bowtastic said. Then he headed out followed by the ponies and heroes. "And where do you plan to stay Bowtastic?" KP asked. Bowtastic chuckled. "The same place I've been staying all these years, on top of a tree." He then started to run at amazing speeds and climbed up a tree. "Yup. This will do just fine!" Everyone looked confused at the strange sight. "Guess we'll talk more about it tomorrow" Twilight said. Everyone nodded and gone to sleep.
AN: Well this was kind of a crazy chapter. In case you're wondering Bowtastic is my IGN on Minecraft and my skin is a lava creeper. I'm being more active than usual on this story. Why? Because MY MIND CAN'T EVEN HANDLE IT ANYMORE! Ahem… sorry for the outburst but my mind is BURSTING with outcomes for the story and if I don't write my mind will probably explode. Not in a contained way but in a Mythbusters kind of way. Anyway keep the reviews coming and I'll keep the chapters going. Remember to leave a fav if you like the story (it helps). Until next time I'm Bowtastic and I wish you a good day.
