"We both spawned at the same time, and got in the same speaking session with Notch. I was granted the power of potions, while Riley here got fire," started Zoe. "We then set out off together. Sadly, Riley BURNED ALL OF THE FOOD," Zoe glared at Riley, " in a nasty fight with skeletons, so we starved to death and we ended up in the infirmary. Notch then popped a book on top of me, telling me about you and Daio. I know, it's short, but that's all we got to tell. Now, what do we do now?"

Pop! We all jumped as a book appeared next to me. I guess Notch really likes books, I thought. I then picked up and opened the book and read aloud: The first thing to do is to know why i'm guiding you 4, and 6 more later. The reason is that the evil over these lands have been starting to grow stronger. The mobs are now wearing armor, they know how to get across holes. Trained Skeletons are reported sitting on spiders, hitting rapid fire as you draw closer. Supercharged Creepers are now being reported, exploding with a force that reaches 15 blocks. There is no End to this evil, except the End. The Enderdragon grows stronger, faster, better as more and more people slay his creatures. He's drawn up the Wither god to accompany him. The answer is to start with the Wither, the weakest god, then the Enderdragon. Pinkee cannot know about the last one, as she will be scarred unlike the rest of you. To defeat the Wither, you all will need to work together. I put some iron armor and tools in the chest at the end of this bed. Diamond is too expensive, but I put a fortune IV on an iron pick in case you see any. After you make full enchanted diamond tools and armor, I will send another book. Good luck.

"Well, I guess that answers your question, Zoe," I finished. Daio, nearest to the chest, opened it and handed out the iron tools and armor to all of us. We then suited up while I handed apples to everyone. After that, we looked through the Mushroom Island, the Mooshrooms mooing all around us. After a bit of exploring, the sound of hissing and moaning was heard echoing from a nearby cave. The mobs had heard us coming, and was soon coming out of the cave, swords and bows at the ready. We charged through them, slicing them like bread. I then saw coal and mined some while everyone else took guard. After I got 8, I made 16 torches and starting placing them around the cave.

"Now that we can actually see, I think you might want to look over there," pointed Riley. We all looked over to see a wooden pillar.

"A mineshaft! Perfect! Come on, what're you guys waiting for?" Daio ran right into the mineshaft, us trailing behind. I saw more coal, but while I mined that, the next thing I knew was being nibbled on by some spiders.

"Ow!" I exclaimed as I took a stab at the spiders. I then noticed a huge nest behind me. "Uh, guys?" I called out. "GUYS! COME HERE!"

A scream pierced the silence. I sprinted, now being trailed by the spiders as they were awakened by the sudden noise. More screams came. I followed them to the best of my ability, being bombarded with zombies and skeletons and spiders. Suddenly, a flash of purple flew in my face, making me bang my head on the low rock ceiling and stalling just enough to have a skeleton shoot me in the arm. Two more shots hit me in the back as I was stumbling away, panting, losing blood rapidly. Another shot, and I probably won't make it. I felt wind pass me as I dodged slender arrows. I turned the arrow-filled corner, and caught a glimpse of Riley and Zoe being dragged limply away down the corridor by some creatures before my vision turned white.

I'm so sorry for the gigantic wait, but I forgot about the story! :( I promise to do better, and if I forget again, bombard me with PMs until I write up another chapter. Thanks for waiting.
