Minecraft-Legend of the Creator
Chapter 11- Training and War Stories
(Play Project X Zone 2 : All the World's Stage-Intro)
(The music starts up with the area in fog as a young man emerges. Behind him, four other boys and a girl as different mobs with weapons emerge. Opening his eyes, Decion smiles a bit as six gems swirl and blind the screen.)
Someone's voices can be heard as it goes on and on,
(Each mob from Minecraftia is seen, one by one emerging out of the bloom, with the Ender dragon as the last.)
Spreading throughout the world.
(The camera moves around the world of Minecraftia until it hits the blocky sun in a blinding light.)
And everywhere this prayer went, so also the world melded together.
(We see Decion on Endra in her Dragon form, flying in the air with his five human friends. With a boost of The End's power, Endra blasts off in the soaring sky.)
A golden chain leads to a stage far away,
(Wendy fights the soldiers of the Clay Kingdom with her duel wielding swords.)
quietly waiting for dawn.
(An arrow kills one as the screen shoots to Skelly with a smirk.)
This story is spun where greetings, and farewells meet.
(Silk and Jill spin kick a soldier each and shoot their webs as their spider soldiers jump in and strike with bites and poison.)
In a town shaken by the past and swallowed up by the future.
(Golemari and her Golems fight the slaved Golems, as the camera moves in on King Claybeard looking up with a twisted smirk.)
When the world reaches one hundred encounters,
(Snowy and her pack charge in and slash and bite upcoming clay soldiers with weapons drawn.)
the heavens will unleash the meaning of a hundred farewells.
(Ender's eyes glow purple until her shy personality is replaced with a salvage beast, charging with a thirst for killing .)
Singing, Dancing, and Illuminated in a mired of lights.
(Gel spins with her hands open as goo splashes out, merging into a large looking slime cube.)
The world is but one stage.
(Both kingdoms charged and waged war onto the world of Minecraftia.)
The direction of the road is vague under the darkness of a heavy silk curtain.
(The light shines upon Decion as the six crystals swirl around him. One by one, each of his five friends appeared next to him with their smiles while holding a fist up as one.)
And thus, helpless as flower petals dancing in the wind,
(Different mob princesses not seen jump down with cheerful smiles with their mob armies behind them.)
we reached up to open the door to the new world, far beyond the sky.
(Decion slaughters another soldier before looking behind him, seeing the legendary Herobrine with a dark smirk as he laughs, black aura surrounding him. Decion glares until the six gems with him clash into him as he is engulfed in bright light.)
When the world reaches one hundred encounters,
(Ores slams against a soldier as one jumps behind only to be blasted by magic from Wander with a smirk.)
the heavens will unleash the meaning of a hundred farewells.
(Ebony swings his sword and fires an arrow with his bow, Steel teleports, swinging his chains, with a shadow figure bashing the soldiers away with her tail, eyes glowing green.)
Singing, Dancing, the curtain of the final stage lifts.
(The six gems swirled around into the air until they clashed with Decion, as he glared at herobrine with their auras swirling in a powerful burst of power.)
The world is but one stage.
(The young man charged at him as they clashed in a powerful burst of light.)
This is the intersection of worlds.
(The camera shows Decion looking upon Minecraftia with a smile with his gear on. The music ends with the six gems flying off into the air as the Title 'Minecraft-Legend of the Creator' is seen, shining before the screen goes black.)
One day has passed since Decion's execution had been cancelled. News spread quickly throughout the Mob Kingdom of Decion's condition. After their raid on the Clay Kingdom, the usual happy mood was replaced with one more anxious and dreadful. The princesses in particular were taking the brunt of the pain. Skelly, Gel, Jill, Snowy, Wendy, Fleshy, Silk, Ender, and Endra were all gathered around his recovery bed as their lover remained unconscious. Tears clung to their eyes as they accepted what had happened. During the moments before Decion's rescue, King Claybeard had lobbed an orb of magma cream over the right side of his face. While it hadn't been fatal, it had cost him his eye.
To the side of him the princess of the creepers sat on a chair pressing her face into his chest. Out of all the princesses Cupa sobbed the hardest. It had been her that Decion had been searching for in the forest when he had been captured. In turn that made her responsible for the harm that came to the boy she loved.
"It's all my fault…" She wailed over and over.
Gel placed a hand on her back. "Cupa, it's not your fault. There was no way-"
"STOP SAYING THAT!" She hollered as tears washed down her cheeks. "I'm the reason he was in the forest. I'm the reason he was caught. If it wasn't for me he'd still have his eye." She hugged Decion tightly as she hid her head in crook of his neck.
Endra then came up to Cupa's back and spoke as gently as possible. "Cupa, if he hadn't gone looking for you, he wouldn't have saved the green dragon and she would've most likely been in his shoes." Cupa kept sobbing, but nodded her head slightly knowing the queen was right. At that moment, a knock came from the door.
"Is it ok for me to enter?" The maker of the game asked as he peeked his head in.
"Of course." Skelly smiled wiping her tears. "You can come in."
Notch closed the door behind him, and joined the girls. "How is he doing?" He asked.
"We did all we could, but we couldn't heal his eye." Jill sniffed taking Decion's hand and squeezed it. "And now...he won't wake up."
"Days in Minecraft are shorter than in our world. It could be a combination of shock and his brain trying to make up for the lack of sleep." Notch guessed. Snowy broke off from the group, walking over to the window before staring at the kingdom below.
"Snowy?" Silk asked the wolf princess. "What's up?"
Snowy crossed her arms under her breasts as a stern look appeared on her face. "When we were spying on the execution, all the players that were gathered sounded all too eager to get rid of him. I don't understand how or why they could hate him so much…"
"I... might be able to provide an answer to that." Notch sighed. "Most of them fear him after the WWM occurred."
"Decion mentioned that before, what is the WWM exactly?" Wendy asked.
"It is short for World War Minecraft." Notch explained. "However, if I'm going to share what happened, then there are others who should hear this as well."
"You mean Ores, Steel, Wander, Ebony, and the dragon girl?" Fleshy guessed. The old man gave a nod as a poof of purple smoke appeared next to the bed.
"Dad, what happened to you?" Decion's son sobbed clutching his body. Ender comforted the boy as they caught him up. Steel buried his face into the ender princess and continued to cry.
"Steel, do you happen to know where the other strange mobs are?" Endra asked.
"T-they're just outside the door…" Steel sniffed. "I overheard them talking about dad, and I teleported in here."
"Alright then," Notch replied. "Let's give Dec some quiet to recover." One by one the princesses followed Notch out of Decion's room. Cupa only left his side when Ender teleported her. In the waiting room stood Ores, Golli, Ebony, Bona, Wander, Emerald, and the dragon that Decion had saved.
Unlike before she was now human. She had dark green wavy hair that stopped just over her shoulders with random leaves sticking out of it. Her eyes were emerald along with the patches of scales on her shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. She wore torn green camo pants, brown hiking boots, and a black hoodie. The zipper on her hoodie was halfway down, exposing her emerald green bra holding her D-cup breasts with her green pendant resting on top of them. After returning to the kingdom, Endra had unlocked her human form as she was the queen of the dragons.
"So, you must be the dragon that Decion helped." Gel greeted the new girl. "Thank you for helping to rescue him."
The girl glanced at the slime princess before giving her a small smile. "He helped me with my wing; I wanted to repay my debt."
"You have our thanks," Silk added. "What's your-oh, you probably don't know your name do you?"
The girl shook her head. "No, but I kinda of like the name Aerial."
"A pleasure to meet you then, Aerial." Fleshy hugged her. Aerial hugged her back though she wrapped her hands around her waist and squeezed her butt.
Fleshy squealed a bit with a blush, but had a smirk on her face. "Oh feisty are we?~" She returned the favor by giving Aerial a squeeze of her butt as well.
"What can I say?" Aerial grinned. "I like big butts."
"Then maybe later, all of us can get to know you and have some 'Fun'?~" Gel offered, pulling her closer while groping her ass.
The dragon pinched the slime girls rear. "I'm not doing anything later.~"
"Ahem." The two looked at Notch. "Yes, you two can have your sexual chat later, but it's time I tell you about Decion's past." The entire group followed him to another room in the castle. Behind two iron doors was a private conference room. Everyone took seats with Notch at the head. "What I'm about to tell is a somewhat sensitive matter amongst the humans that play this game. This "war" that happened might not be something that Decion would have shared on his own. However, given the circumstances I think it is necessary for you all to hear the tale."
Jill raised her hand. "Were you there when this took place?" Notch shook his head. "Then how do you know what happened?"
"I'm one of the gamemasters." He replied. "I get to watch over all the servers that are active. Observing what happens on each." Jill nodded as she understood his response. "Now then, ten years ago is when this dreadful event occurred. The player you know as Decion had just entered the online servers for the first time. Back then, my system notified me whenever a potential candidate for the Creator's power was located. That was when I began observing him. From what I was able to gather his cousin, a player that goes by the name Exieon, had convinced him to join the map."
"Soon after Dec arrived on the server, he got his own house in the city of Gemoria. For the first couple of weeks he had made a pretty sustained residence in the town. Unfortunately, one evening as he returned home from the local mine, he came across a two block tall hole in his wall...with someone's name tag visible in his house."
"Why would someone do that to him?" Skelly asked in question.
"Well, some of the players are referred to as "griefers". They enjoy purposefully creating havoc with others either by stealing their loot, destroying their creations, or just killing them." Notch explained with a grimace. The girls gasped, unable to believe people would willingly do something like that.
"How could they do something so evil to him!? He didn't do anything wrong!" Endra snarled.
"I don't like it either, but the story isn't over...and it gets worse. Decion watched in confusion as the player ran out of his house and into the one across the street, sealing the door shut behind him. Afraid of what could've just happened he ran into his own house looking through all of his chests. While nothing was taken from them something else was."
"What did the player steal from him?" Wendy growled.
"It was something that players hold high in value as they are incredibly hard to obtain. The griefer had stolen a golden record right out of his juke box."
"A golden record? Why would they steal that, and why is it important to the player?" Ender asked in question now.
Notch sighed. "It's not that they're important. Since they are almost impossible to find, if you have one you get bragging rights and other players sometimes treat you like a god for getting one. That being said, Decion was furious that someone broke into his home to steal something that he nearly died trying to get out of a dungeon. He stormed out of his home, made a B-line for the griefer's home and tried to force his way in as the player attempted to shut the door on him."
"I would be pissed if someone took something I have. Dragons are protective of their haul." Aerial agreed, knowing the feeling well.
"Eventually Dec got into the house demanding his record back while the griefer protested that he didn't take it." Notch continued. "When Decion didn't believe him, he cut down the player where he stood."
The girls grew shocked to this that Decion killed a player, but he did have a right, since thieves either get punished or killed in the game. "What happened then?" Jill asked.
"After searching the house and being unable to locate his missing record he lined the player's home floor with TNT before igniting them. The house was nothing but a crater in the town floor. Decion just stood there gazing into the hole depressed as the most valuable thing he had ever looted seemed to be gone forever."
"But it made no sense. Thieves always had stolen property with them or hiding in their bases or homes." Wendy mentioned.
"I'm not sure what happened to the record. Most likely he hid it in a secret chest somewhere in his house while Dec searched his own trying to figure out what was taken. Decion must've not have found it, and accidently destroyed it in the explosion." Notch explained.
"So what happened with Decion after the incident?" Gel questioned.
"As he stood staring into the hole, the admin of the town just happened to be walking by. He questioned Decion, and told him even though he was griefed, that it didn't give him the right to kill the player. However, the admin had been receiving complaints about said player for many months. He decided to forgive Decion if he passed a test. If Decion wanted to stay in the town, he had to prove his worth as a minecraft player and build something that impressed him. Returning after a couple days on the server, he found Decion putting the finishing touches on a stone brick building on top of the corner of the town's wall. The building itself was a coffee house sized diner and lounge. Even had a few beds that new players could rent if they needed and a mini farm inside it."
"Wow. I knew Decion was a great builder, but that's amazing." Jill said in awe at her lover's abilities in crafting.
"So that's what he was talking about when we were eating breakfast the other day." Wendy said, "I was wondering what he meant."
"The admin was impressed. The building itself was a sight to behold, but at that time stone bricks were just released in that latest update and Dec managed to figure out how to craft them before the recipe was up on the Wiki. Keeping his word the admin forgave him and promoted his status to town builder."
"Decion had a decent life in his time...but how did this war start?" Silk asked.
"Not long after he was promoted, he had received a request at the Builder's Shack, it was a small board that players could leave suggestions for the builders. The request that caught his interest was a long range cannon. Intrigued by the idea he tinkered with several designs before finally creating a prototype that could shoot a block of TNT a thousand blocks away before exploding. At that distance you wouldn't hear the explosion. He came back to town, set up a special platform and reconstructed it in the center of town. When it was done he notified the player who requested it that it was complete. On the following day when he logged in, Decion noticed a sign attached to the cannon asking him to redirect the massive machine to hit a specific set of coordinates. He judged where the target should've been, realigned the cannon and again notified the player asking if he wanted to push the button. The player teleported next to him, pushed the button and then logged off."
Skelly had a firm look on her face. "I bet that player was the one that started all this. He sabotaged and set Decion up, didn't he?"
The game master gave a slow nod. "Decion watched confused as the cannon fired off the single block of TNT over the nearby hills. He was about to walk away when a deafening explosion was heard in the direction of the cannon shot. Apparently, the coordinates that the player left were for the the admin's house of the town next door which had been covered with a hidden layer of TNT. Unbeknown to Dec the admin of that town and his town knew each other in real life and hated each other's guts. The neighboring admin rallied his residents to swarm the nearby town and kill any of its players."
The princesses were shocked, but also infuriated to this player that framed Decion and played him like a fool. "Why that low life mother fucker! If I ever find him, I'm gonna string him to my web and feast on his brains!" Silk hissed, teeth bared.
"Unfortunately, no one has seen or heard of that player since. Many think he didn't even exist." Notch added. "As the town where Decion lived swarmed in panic he managed to funnel them into his basement where he had set up a nether portal. He placed a sign on the wall telling the last person through to push the button and brake the sign before leaving. When the last person exited the portal they dismantled it."
"So after they escaped, they lived in the netherrealm?" Gel asked.
"Not quite. Decion had a system of portals all throughout the Nether that connected to all of the forts that he had created in his time as builder before that little incident. Each with a sort of...emergency getaway tactic. That button that he had the last person press was connected to a one hundred block cube of TNT Dec had built under the town because he had been bored."
"I see…." Gel nodded in understanding.
"How did it happen next? Did Decion and the others find a new home?" Ender asked.
"The town's players continued to live in secret within the forts Decion had created. With what was going on, the same admin that promoted him to builder told Decion that this was now his responsibility to end and placed him in charge of the war for their town. Ever few days the enemy town would locate them and attack. Decion's forces would hold them off from the forts as long as they could, but eventually they all had to be blown up...all except one, the Glass Castle."
"The Glass Castle? Is that one of Decion's greatest creations?" Gel asked.
Notch smiled. "Well, I believe it would be second only to the manmade volcano he designed with working lava flow valves and flaming arrow defences, but in the terms of the war this is what turned it in their favor. It was the only structure that Decion had crafted in the sky. It was as big as three of the admins' towns with plenty of hidden mechanisms within it. The enemy tried for several weeks attempting to locate them, but being so high up their name tags were not visible on the ground below. The castle also gave no shadow as it was constructed from clear glass. After a week of going undetected, Decion decided it was their turn to strike. He sent a few scouts to the surface to acquire the coordinates of the enemy town. Once they were acquired, Decion handed out stacks of glass to all of the players as they built bridges over the target. When the signal was given the players rained down blocks of TNT, anvils, creeper eggs, and buckets of lava onto the unsuspecting residents all provided from Decion having the unlimited materials that builders are bestowed on public maps."
"So Decion led the war and was winning? I never knew he was such a leader." Wendy muttered in amazement at her lover.
"Eventually as they continued to use the same tactic whenever the town moved, players from the enemy side left the server for good. In one week the only player who remained was the enraged admin." Notch continued.
"I take it things went downhill when he faced him." Jill frowned, fearing this is where the story takes a dark turn.
"The admin was humiliated that one player had managed to overthrow him in his triumph over his rival. He was determined to ruin everything Dec had created. Being close friends with the owner of the server, he convinced him to activate the nuclear bomb mod on the server."
"A nuclear Bomb!?" The girls all gasped in shock.
"Was this guy seriously insane!?" Skelly shouted.
"He felt that if he couldn't rule that server no one should be able to play on it. In a final fury driven act he set off a red matter bomb at the spawn point. These are perhaps the worst bombs introduced by that particular mod."
The princesses took in this new information, looking at one another, before Ender spoke up. "Did anyone survive, or did they….perish?"
Notch hung his head. "Unfortunately, red matter bombs increase in size constantly sucking in anything they touch even bedrock. By the time the players Decion lived with realized what was happening it was too late. They were all dragged to the epicenter and killed. While red matter bombs can be stopped with a secondary one, since it was set off on the spawn point, whenever a player tried to log back onto the server they were immediately killed again."
"How awful." Gel frowned.
"Decion told me once that people didn't like him because of that war, even from the kingdom we all knew...but why though?" Jill asked Notch.
"Well," Notch shifted in his chair. "After a brief check online, many of the losing players of the war were blogging about what happened. Each one portraying Decion as a bloodthirsty Warlord. A few of the citizens that fought alongside him tried to speak up for him, but they were too late as most of the worldwide miners had sided with the losers. In the weeks that followed, anytime Decion tried to play on a multiplayer map he was either killed on sight or simply banned. During those weeks the system had determined that he was the best fit for the Creator's power, but to my dismay he was never seen on the multiplayer servers again...until he came here."
Notch finished the story of the war. The girls looked at each other, and the five others that hold the Creator's power. "So Decion is the only one that can defeat your brother...but how can we stop him? Not even you were able to kill him, and how will Decion gain all of their power before he finds the kingdom?" Endra asked.
Notch scratched his beard. "I'm honestly not sure. The system was supposed to give him all of the creator's power, but from what I see," he turned his gaze to the five strange mobs. "You five also appear to have some of the Creator's power. And, just this morning I came across something most troubling regarding Dec…"
"What's gonna happen to my dad?" Steel asked in concern, trying not to cry again.
"It's not what will happen. This is apparently what happened when he used the VR-helm." Notch replied. "Apparently, shortly after logging onto the device...his apartment was struck by lightning...and he died IRL."
The group gasped in shock. Is that really true? He really died?
"No...NO THAT'S NOT TRUE!" Steel screamed, falling to his knees and started crying.
"I'm afraid that it is. The reports were broadcasted this morning. Decion is trapped in here unable to leave, and if he dies in here...he will simply disappear."
The princesses were now very worried and filled with fear. Decion's life now lives in Minecraftia. They can't let him die. They needed him.
"I won't let that happen!" Ender snapped surprising the others, since she's always the shy and soft spoken type. "Decion is too important to me to let go of! He means everything to us! I won't let him die! If I have to fight by his side to keep him safe and kill that damn man you call a brother, so be it! I will even die for him to keep him alive in this world!"
Notch stared at the Endergirl, awed by her words. "It's not just him that's at risk." He returned his gaze at the strange mobs. "You all appeared roughly at the same time Dec did right? About a week ago?"
"By my calculations of the time he logged in, yes." Ores replied with a nod.
"Then it is as I fear. You are all connected to the Creator's power, same to Decion. If you die you will vanish forever, and my brother will gain your power if he does kill you." Notch replied. "But more than that, everyone focus your crosshairs on them until a name pops up."
"What does that mean?" Ebony girls each stared at them one by one, each growing quite shocked. The name the appeared from each of them...was DECION.
"You are all also Decion. Any action you do, either killed or killing a player, it will be put up as Decion." Notch explained.
"How is something like that even possible?" Wander started with a skeptical look.
"My guess is that the bolt of lightning that shocked Dec also overloaded my system. That intern caused it to separate the stones by taking portions of his personality that it had noted when evaluating him and created a being best suited to hold each power. I believe that you five are concentrated fragments of his personality." Notch explained.
"I guess that would make sense since I acted like a dick from before." Ebony said, knowing what Notch meant.
Endra looked at Steel before speaking to Notch. "If they are fragments of him, why does Steel think he is thirteen?"
Notch scratched his beard again. "Well, my only answer is that Steel is 25, like Decion, but his personality was mostly shy when he was at the age of thirteen."
"So you mean Steel is an adult, but has the personality and body of a child?" Endra asked in surprise.
"That's the only answer I can think of." Notch answered.
Endra looked at Steel before she laughed, ruffling his hair. "No wonder why you were well so skilled in bed Sweetie Pie."
"Wait...what?" Skelly asked in shock.
"You mean you actually...had sex with him?" Wendy asked while blushing.
"Oh very. He was like Decion. So full of energy and knows how to give a girl a good time." Endra giggled, kissing his cheek. Aerial then leaned forward in her chair with a serious expression.
"So let me get this straight. Decion is actually dead IRL, we all originated from his mind, if he or any of us die we will simply vanish, we each have a power from the Creator, and you want us to kill your brother in here with powers we really don't know how to use...That about right?"
"Yes." Notch nodded.
"Well, where's my death certificate and where do I sign?" She laughed.
The others just looked at her in shock. "Are you really that insane to end your life!?" Skelly shouted.
"Not by my hand, no. But if try to do anything in our current state we will definitely perish...except of course for Ebony since he was lucky enough to get immortality." Aerial replied.
"I'm afraid not even Ebony can live forever against my brother. He knows how to create weapons and tools that can break or destroy bedrock if he wants to." Notch informed.
Aerial's smirk disappeared. "Ok, that settles it. We are definitely going to die…"
"Maybe alone against my brother….but working together with Decion, you all have a chance to stop him." The master answered. "Did any of you read the book that I left for Decion in the library?" The mobs shook their heads no in reply. "Give me a second and I'll-" The man stopped as a new person now stood in the doorway.
"You mean...this book?" The girl Gel rescued asked holding it out. She was wrapped inside of a white robe now.
"Yes, how did you…?" Notch asked.
"Well, I found this book in Allen's room when I woke up. It seemed important, so I thought maybe you all might know something about it." She answered, stepping into the room and placing the book on the table.
"Allen? That's Decion's real name?" Skelly asked in surprise.
"Yes." She nodded.
"How do you know him IRL? Who are you?" Wendy asked next.
The girl gaze sheepish chuckle before frowning at the ground. "I grew up with him."
"Grew up with him? You mean you're an old friend of Decion's?" Gel asked.
"While I wouldn't necessarily call him a friend, he probably would. He was the kind of person that if you showed in even a small amount of kindness to he would label you as his friend. Although now he would probably hate me…" The girl explained.
"Why would he?" Jill asked.
The girl tried not to look up. "My friends and I decided to play a trick on him in highschool at our junior prom. Skipping the details we turned him into the laughing stalk of the school."
"What!?" The girls all gasped.
"Why would do that if he saw you as a friend!?" Silk asked, getting upset at this new girl.
"At the school it was tradition to pull a practical joke on any person deemed unpopular. That year...the consensus was that Allen was to be the target." She confessed.
"So you toyed with him, played his heart in this so called friendship you created with him, so you could gain an advantage over a stupid prank that humiliated him!?" Ender snapped, eyes starting to glow purple in anger.
"Yes…" She sighed. "I did." Ender felt sick to her stomach by this girl, vanishing and appearing in front of her, startling her a bit. At that, she did something that shocked the others.
SMACK!
Ender, the shy girl of the Princesses, slapped her hard in the face. "You make me sick! You don't deserve to call him a friend, you fucking bitch!" She yelled, her eyes glowing ever brighter.
The player clutched her face as she fell to the floor sobbing without end. "I know what I did was wrong. Please forgive me…"
Ender only snarled, clutching her fist tightly as it glowed with her ender power. "You think you deserve it after the shit you put him through!?" She was about to slap her again, but Gel grabbed her hand gently.
"Ender, that's enough. She's been through a lot the past few days." She spoke calmly.
The girl continued to sob as she curled into a ball. "I only joined this stupid game cause I knew Allen played it. I didn't want any of this to happen."
Sobbing, she didn't see Gel kneeling to her, before pulling her into her arms, hugging her motherly. Skelly slowly approached the group. "Why did you come to Minecraft?"
"I...I wanted to apologize to him...after everything I did to him...but when I came to this server, I was treated horribly because of how I'm one of the few girls in the clay kingdom, and I had no knowledge of the game. Claybeard...he thought of killing me when I did something wrong when I couldn't do it...but he decided...to use me...as his fucking sex toy!" The girl bawled in Gel's chest. Ender's anger slowly began to retreat the more the girl explained. She still didn't like her, nor would Ender forget what she did to Dec, but she no longer wanted to hurt her.
"And...when we discovered...that we couldn't log out...and heard some people died...IRL, I was so frightened...I ran from the kingdom...but they found me...and...Claybeard raped me for days...and bondaged me...no food...no water...for days." The girl sobbed.
Notch gave a slow nod. "The system has been acting up lately, that would explain why normal players aren't able to log out properly. However, Dec-I mean Allen is the only one who has actually died. The fact that the iron man servers completely shut out players who die in game certainly doesn't help the matter. My guess is that the same lightning strike that caused his mind to split shorted out some of the key features."
"B...but even still...that evil man...I...I can still hear him...his laughs...his taunts...his savagery." The player whimpered, clinging to Gel as if her life would end.
Notch turned to Decion's five fragments. "If you guys are to stop my brother, then you will need to harness the full extent of your powers."
They knew a lot was running on stake. Decion and them were this world's only chance to stop Herobrine. If not, the battle has already been decided.
"Mr. Notch." Steel stepped up. "I'm really scared about this….and that we all might...die in this battle...I'm...I'm willing to help my dad fight...to save everyone."
"I'm in as well." Wander stepped in.
"So am I." Ebony nodded. The others agreed to the terms, they will help fight Herobrine and learn to control their new power.
"Glad to hear it." Notch smiled. "My brother will mostly likely try to rally the other players to fight for him, so I estimate we only have a minecraftian week at best before we will have to fight. We should start training now, who wants to go first?"
"I will sir." Steel stepped in.
"Very well, let's begin." He declared as he lead the group elsewhere in the castle.
"Would you like to head back to the Medic Bay for rest Sweetie?" Gel asked the girl in her arms.
"Would it be alright...if I helped look over Al?" She whimpered.
Gel gave a warm smile. "Of course Sweetie." She cupped her cheek. "And listen. I know what you did to him was wrong, and while I am disappointed in you for your actions against him, I know deep down, you let go of the darkness in the past, and you were very brave to come here to find Allen. I know he will forgive you for what happened. I know he will."
"I hope you're right." The girl wiped her eyes.
"If you need anything, please let us know, ok?" She asked softly.
"...Ok." She nodded.
"Good, now, before anything else, what's your name?"
"...My gamertag is Ebony892...but my real name is…Crystal." She answered.
Gel smiled. "Alright Crystal, please try to stop crying. You're safe now."
"...Ok." Crystal sniffed, wiping her eyes of her tears. Sapphire lead crystal her back to the Medic Bay while Gel went to catch up to the others.
Notch lead the group into the training arena where the five fragments will be training to learn how to harness and control their power.
"Now Steel, are you ready to start your training?" Notch asked.
"Yes sir." The iron enderman human nodded in reply.
"Alright, so how good are you at teleporting?" The man asked. "Can you move about normally?" Steel popped into purple smoke all around the room before stopping in front of the game master. "Good, guess being part endermen helps with that. On that note can you teleport with blocks?"
"I...never tried it before...but I'll give it a shot." Steel walked over and grabbed a steel block on display. Like before, he poofed in purple smoke, with the block in his hands, and teleported back.
"Very good, now lets try something harder." Notch pulled out eight more blocks of iron and stacked them on the ground. "One technique the Creator can do is teleport entire structures, not just singular blocks."
Steel knew what he meant and decided to try it. He approached the structure and grabbed onto it. At that, he vanished, along with the structure itself. He appeared once more, but fell to the ground, panting and wheezing in exhaustion. "I...did...it" He panted.
Notch smiled. "You're progressing fastly young one, although where did you put the blocks?"
The system spoke suddenly. "PLAYER: Timtumber died from falling blocks."
Steel sweatdropped with a nervous smile. "...Sorry...I couldn't hold it for long and I dropped it by mistake." Notch leaned back and laughed.
"Not a bad try, and that probably helped us in the long run." He patted Steel's head. "A little more work and you'll be able to move bigger objects multiple times."
Steel felt a swell of happiness and pride, smiling at the man. "Thank you Mr. Notch."
Calming down from his laughter spell, he continued. "Now I want you to teleport someone else." Steel was about to teleport again before Notch stopped him. "Without moving to them."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Steel asked at this new style of his training.
"Your stone holds the ability to move other people simply by focusing on them. Try focusing on one of the Princesses." Notch explained.
Steel looked at the girls, deciding to go for the smallest, Jill. He closed his eyes, holding his hand out at her as he started glowing purple. He focused with what he had, the aura growing more and more intense as he started sweating and grunting. His concentration paid off, as Jill glowed a bit before vanishing...but appeared a few centimeters forward. Steel fell again, panting and sweating. "Did...I do it?" He asked. Notch smiled until Jill gave an embarrassing squeal.
"Umm...does anyone know where my underwear went?" She blushed as she pulled her sweater down a little bit.
In a burst of purple smoke, her pink panties landed on Steels face, hitting her scent in his nose. Notch turned away with a blush as Steel quickly returned them to her apologizing many times over. "Needs more practice." Notch coughed. "But at least you're getting there. There is just one last thing if you're up to try."
Steel faced him again. "And that is sir?"
"Do the same thing with multiple people." He grinned.
The young boy looked at the group. It was a big challenge, but he's willing to do what he can to get stronger. He closed his eyes and held both hands out, giving into the deepest concentration he ever had. His aura returned, thickening every second. Sweat dripped from his head as he powered all of his energy.
"Come on my boy, you can do it…" Notch muttered.
Steel groaned loudly before a small pulse pushed it. The group glowed and vanished in a cloud of purple smoke, until they reappeared an inch forward. The usage made Steel pant heavily as he used everything he had before he fell unconscious falling forward. Notch caught the boy as he grinned once more. "Good job lad." He motioned to Ender and she teleported in front of him. "Mind letting him rest a while?"
Ender smiled with a nod, tenderly holding the boy in her arms until she teleported to Allen's room to rest. "One down, four more to go." Notch whispered to himself. "I hope they'll be ready in time."
