(The person who submitted the OC DoveFire) about the personality part… Since the OC might say hurtful words I might have someone to watch out. Aquarius might start hitting her and they'll start fighting. (Though maybe DoveFire would win xD)
MinecraftUniverse POV
Aquarius had never shared gear with others with the reason of wanting to be a collector, but when she saw CreeperMC5, she gave him a pink slime crossbow completed with manyullyn crossbow bolts. He was overjoyed.
"Only use it in situations where your old crossbow can't do much," She advised. "Take it as your ultimate weapon for life-and-dead situations,"
Before we slept, Rex checked the map one last time to make sure that we would be going the right way the next day. CreeperMC5 looked over Rex's shoulder and gasped.
"That's a relic," He said, looking at us. "Where did you guys get this?"
"This thing was gathering dust, so we took it with us," Zek explained. "What's the matter?"
"No wonder you guys don't know the true usage of this item," CreeperMC5 shook his head. "This item can also be used to track a person. Just put a drop of that person's blood on it, and it would display the person's marker on it. When the person died, the marker will disappear from the map,"
To demonstrate, CreeperMC5 cut his finger with a dagger and a drop of blood hit the parchment. The paper glowed lime green, and a dot of the same color appeared on the map. It was situated somewhere between Pluto City and Bellona Kingdom. We're over halfway towards our destination.
"That's cool," Preston clapped his hands. "I suppose we should all put our blood on this now,"
"Heloooo?" Aquarius waved her hand in front of Preston as if she's trying to wake him. "Do you have any idea how much it would hurt to cut your finger? I'd recommend doing it when we're wounded already or something like that,"
"You tried it before?" Preston asked. "If you didn't then shut up,"
"Of course I did!" Aquarius answered. "My mind wasn't working right at that time, and I kind of want to test the sharpness of the knife coz it's made of plastic!"
"Calm down, you two," Rob stepped between them. "Preston, you're older than her by 5 years. And you acted like you're only 16,"
"Let's just drop it," Aquarius rolled her eyes. "This isn't going anywhere,"
"Deal," Preston agreed. "Now, let's get some sleep. Bellona Kingdom wasn't far anymore,"
~~Time Skip with the power of Pianos~~
"This is it," CreeperMC5 gestured at a fort made of Nether Quartz and bits of Nether Brick. The Quartz glimmered in the sunlight, and it seems to create a rainbow when seen from a certain angle. It looked so cheerful that no one would believe that it is at it is actually a military base.
CreeperMC5 guided us through the gates, making up a lie to the guards that I has sensitive skin and has to wear the spacesuit to protect myself. Technically, it's half a lie. I wear the suit to protect myself from those hybrid hunters, not because I have sensitive skin. You guys know about that, right?
We sold the loot we got from the journey between Pluto City and Bellona Kingdom, even the ones we got from the abandoned shack. Miners actually wanted the torch-placing staff badly, since carrying torches on them is troublesome, and they can only place a torch at arm length. Those staffs places torches further, so miners could see danger before it strikes.
When all is done, it's too late to continue on our journey. CreeperMC5 asked us to stay at his house, which is enough for all of us to stay in there. His 18 year old brother, ThomasYi67, is a professional blacksmith that specialized at making spears and battleaxes. He also delivers weapons to the Kingdom armory and the other cities. Unlike (the old) CreeperMC5, he believes that the hybrids aren't bad.

"Attention all citizens!" I stuck my head through the window, wondering who's the jerk hollering early in the morning. It came from the town center, and since CreeperMC5's house is just a few buildings away, I can see what's happening there.
A guy in fancy robs is reading from a scroll, and all around him gathered a small crowd. People living near the center looked out of their windows, like me.
"Attention! The council had just received a letter from Apollo Town. The hybrids had reappeared after all these years. The town would be paying those who captured even one of them alive for ten thousand Koins, and fifty thousand for those who bring their head. No citizen are allowed to help the hybrids, and if discovered, they would be executed on the spot,"
The people cheered as I ducked back in. The others had come out of their rooms already, and they stood there with their mouth gaping.
"This is bad news," Sky said. "We have people wanting to kill us while we did nothing,"
"Actually, we did something in our past life, so it counts," Aquarius recovered from the shock, though she's still trembling. "Get ready now. We are leaving in five minutes,"
Everyone was starting to pack when CreeperMC5 burst into the room. "Guys," He gasped. "The citizens are hunting for you guys. You've got a bounty on your head,"
"We know," Mitch stuffed a money bag into his backpack. "That guy's voice is so loud I can hear it from across the street,"
"There's more," He panted. "They've placed more guards at the gates so you guys can't come in or leave,"
Mitch straightened up. "That's indeed bad news,"
"But we've got a plan," CreeperMC5 held up his hand. "My brother is going to send a wagon of weapons Pluto City. I know my brother wasn't going your way, but at least he can get you guys out of this place. Then you're on your own,"
It wasn't a great idea. Then again, we don't have much choice. If Notch had at least taught us how to use our powers, we can get out of this mess in a better way. ThomasYi67's wagon is in the garage, and we all climbed in and made ourselves as comfortable as possible. ThomasYi67 and CreeperMC5 loaded the weapons into the wagon, doing their best to conceal us. Some of the weapons are place face-down, and one of the spears is only a few inches from my nose. Lastly, they spread a piece of canvas onto the wagon and tied it down.
A while later, the wagon started moving. I studied the blade of the spear and listened to the wagon wheels creaking on the sidewalk. I'd been reading a novel back at home about a Jewish girl back in the World War II days. This must be her feeling right now, not knowing when would someone found them out and execute them.
The wagon stopped abruptly. Someone yelled at the wagon driver, but my heart is thumping too loudly to hear the words. The canvas was pulled open, and a hand reached into the wagon and felt around. It was dangerously close to Aquarius, and as I watched, she pulled out her stone dagger and held it close to the hand.
The hand grazed the blade, and the owner retracted it. He yelled something at ThomasYi67, who replied that he'd probably grazed one of the blades, since quite a number of them are placed upside down. The canvas covered the wagon again, and the wagon wheels creaked as it drove onto the gravel path and later, onto something soft.
Another two hours passed before the wagon stopped and the canvas pulled off the wagon. "Guys, it's safe now," CreeperMC5 said, removing weapons from the wagon and helping us out. "That guard at the gates is so scary, brother. I thought he would find out for sure,"
"Well, he didn't," ThomasYi67 shrugged. "I actually let Fate decide it all back there, and apparently she did,"
"How so?" Aquarius brushed her jeans.
"Apparently Fate made that guy touch one of my weapons, or he would be feeling around forever,"
"Aquarius did that!" I laughed. "She pulled out her dagger and let the guy cut his hand on purpose!"
"Dude," Kim climbed out of the wagon. "Do you have any idea how dangerous that is? You could have got us all killed!"
"But I didn't," Aquarius smiled. "Apparently having an uncontrollable mind helps,"
"Whatever you say," Kim rolled her eyes as the last of the team climbed out. We replaced the weapons and bid our goodbyes.
"We'll let you know when we reach Fiore," Aquarius promised. "Then you guys can come if you want. This Kingdom seemed plenty aggressive to me,"
"We'll go," ThomasYi67 nodded. "But we'll put up with these people for the time being,"
"Bye, guys," CreeperMC5 waved as they rode away. "And stay safe!"
Guys. I made ThomasYi67 up. He wasn't in the list of OCs submitted, but I figured that there's a need to put him there so...
