Vanessa's PoV
After a little while of settling in, we decided to erect a small base here to build up our supplies and see what we could salvage. Andr was hard at work making something, I could tell it wasn't going to be just anything when I saw the TNT in the mix. She called me over.
''Can you take this to Cupa? I know she's busy and all, but I spent a long time making it for her. Oh, and do NOT think about destruction while holding it, otherwise this place will have a few new craters in it.''
She handed me a small, red, flint sized triangle with a hole in it. It glowed with a yellow outline.
Don't think about destruction…Don't…Think…
Eventually I made it to Cupa, blocking out the tempting thought of obliterating everything in a varying radius.
''Here.'' I told her. ''Andr wanted me to give this to you.''
She stared at it for a long time, and then spoke quietly, obviously holding back tidal waves of excitement. ''Do you know what this is?'' she said.
''No, but you obviously do.'' I replied.
''Damn straight! This is a Destruction Catalyst!'' she happily shot out. And the floodgates are open..
''I thought they were all destroyed thousands of years ago! My dad told me stories of the overwhelming damage they could cause just by thinking about it! This is… I have to know how Andr made one of these! She ran off, so I left to find my sister. She was working on some radio antenna thing with that blonde steampunk girl, Sera, was it? Anyway I heard them talking as soon as I came in to the room where they were fixing the antenna.
''Should I put it here?''
''No, then it'll block the transformer couplings.''
''Oh, okay. What about… Oh hey, sis! What's up?''
''Hey, I was wondering if we could do something together, y'know, as sisters? It's been so long.''
''Maybe, but right now I need to increase the level of megahertz to this frequency transmitter.''
''If you don't come right now, I will increase your levels of mega hurts. So if you know what's good for you, you'll do something I may regret.''
She automatically knew I wasn't kidding. She sighed.
''Still the same old Vanessa after all this time.'' She smiled cutely. ''Fine, let's go. Sera, I'm sure you'll know what to do.''
We went for a walk through anther part of the city, where Yaebi and Steve were cataloguing all the supplies we had.
''Nether Quartz?''
''Like, five pieces left.''
''Soul Sand?''
''None.''
''Glowstone?''
''Nada.''
''Nether Brick? Nether Wart? Netherrack?!''
''Nope, nope and…what do you know? Nope.''
Well, my zombie friend, how do you fell about spending the next three hours near the centre of the planet mining nearly unbreakable material, then arranging in it into a portal to hell?''
''Nope.''
''Well, we're going to have to go to the Nether eventually to get supplies. ..''
Cupa calling to us from across a few pulverized roads cut off Steve.
''YO STEPHANIE! IS THIS BUILDING SPECIAL TO YOU IN ANY WAY?'' Notch, she has a loud voice.
''NO, THAT'S JUST A REGULAR BUILDING, WHY DO YOU NEED TO KNOW?'' Of course she had nothing on Stephanie's voice.
''THIS IS WHY!'' The ground shook, and a huge beam of light, nearly as tall as the three story apartments we were staying in (we didn't really like our original arrangements) shot out from where Cupa was standing. The beam travelled down the street and hit the building. There was a massive noise and a cloud of dust, and, when it settled, there was no more building.
''IT REALLY WORKS! THANK YOU ANDR!'' I think we were all still in shock.
''What just happened?'' Steve asked Yaebi.
''What? I can't hear you!'' Yaebi shouted.
A LITTLE WHILE LATER…
Cupa's PoV
''…And that's exactly what happened.'' I finished as I told Fayruz and the other humans at dinner.
''A Destruction Catalyst. Interesting, Funny how they were all destroyed.''
''Andr made it for me. She's really smart and can pretty much make anything, she's so creative.''
''What I'm wondering about is what's behind these attacks.'' said Steve, looking up from his roast chicken.
''But Steve, we know it's Valerie and Willow, the ender dragon girl and wither girl who've been doing this. What's more to be confused about?
''They shouldn't be getting along. Boss mobs fight each other, teen girls fight each other. Together, that's a volatile combination like no other. Someone else is behind this, but who…?''

Willow's PoV
I woke up hearing that voice in my head. I often hear this, but it was never so loud. Yelling…for help? I just don't get it. It's probably the only thing in the world that scares me. I put it out of my head as much as I could, today was the day I finish what I started. Valerie was out in the Ender Kingdom scouting out the ruby we had to steal, so I thought I should go the Nether, and turn it against those annoying mobs. I walked through the portal, and appeared on the other side instantly, like walking through any doorway, in the Nether. It felt like home to be honest, the searing heat, and the poisonous clouds that littered the sky… It relaxed me for a short while. I felt a presence behind me, but didn't turn around.
''Don't move, intruder.'' That could only be the so-called ruler of the Nether, self-appointed Queen Blazette. I finally turned around to see her face to face for the first time. The woman looking back was not as impressive as I had first imagined. Some swimsuit-wearing blonde with anger issues does not a worthy queen make. Behind her stood others a woman made of lava or something, a woman in some kind of wedding dress who seemed to be the only one with any class in this dump, and a weird little girl in a pink hat which covered half her face, who was wielding a golden sword. Apparently she was the one to look out for, as her species, the Zombie Pig people could hit harder than any other.
''State your business here before I make you burn.'' Blazette's methods of intimidation were the weakest I have ever seen. Even the silverfish girls was more threatening to me. I decided to introduce myself.
''I am Willow, Princess of Darkness. You all obey my father and me now.''
''Oh, yeah? No entity in this dimension is going to accept some prissy little goth girl as their queen. Give me a challenge or die. Your choice.''
In one quick movement, I grabbed Blazette and threw her to the ground before she even realised I had moved I picked her up and threw against a wall of nether brick, that stuff must be stronger than I ever imagined, as I thought she would just keep going. She fell to the ground, and, as she got up, looked at the others who were staring in shock.
''Okay, the kingdom is yours .The whole dimension is yours.''
''There are going to be a few changes from now on.'' I told them. ''There are people who will be coming here very soon. They are not to leave this dimension alive. Is that clear?''
They all bowed before me and agreed. Maybe this was going to be fun after all…
