Back at the Castle in Notchton, Herobrine teleported into the lobby. Spardrid floated over to him. He said, "From your new, more powerful appearance, I assume that your plan worked?" Spardrid was right. Herobrine did look more powerful. He glowed a dull red, and his white eyes glowed brighter than ever. Herobrine said, "Yes, those fools fell for it hook, line and sinker!" When Stevie completed the data wipe on Bryan, Herobrine was only separated from Bryan. Apparently, though, there was still a little bit of Bryan left in him. Now, Herobrine was unconstrained, and free to do whatever he wanted without the pitfalls of a normal body. "And now I have..." Herobrine waved his hand, and the Forge teleported behind him. "This." Herobrine said. Spardrid said, "When will I get modded?" Herobrine waved his hand, and said, "Soon enough, soon enough. I need to do some things to...ensure we don't get any unwanted guests." Spardrid said, "But...isn't it impossible to defeat a wither?" Herobrine turned to Spardrid, and said, "Believe me, I've seen what these kids do. They don't just do the impossible, it's their specialty! I won't take chances!" Herobrine said, "But first, I have a communication to make." Herobrine typed some code into the Forge. When the transmission got through, Herobrine said, "Greetings, friend!" The voice on the other end said, "Who is this? Who are you?" Herobrine said, "My name is Herobrine. We haven't met. Yet."
Robin strung three arrows, and hit each of the three heads. The wither, although it obviously didn't enjoy it, just shook off the arrows. Robin said, "Andrew, it's not working!" Andrew threw his sword at the wither's chest. Nothing. Horatio teleported to the wither, grabbed it, and teleported away with it. The wither found itself outside the Stronghold again, Horatio landing on the ground, drifting from consciousness. Stevie, Bryan, Robin and Andrew climbed out of the hole the wither made when it invaded the stronghold, and Stevie ran up to Horatio to help. Robin and Andrew kept shooting their arrows at the wither. Bryan suddenly realized. He did this. This was his fault. He shouted, "Oh, Notch, what did I do?!" The wither seemed like it was weakening, but then it flew into the sky, gaining so much altitude that they couldn't get him, even with their arrows, giving the wither time to heal. Bryan said, said, "Guys! I know it's weakness! It's not particularly strong, it just has firepower and altitude!" He turned to Andrew, and said, "Kid! Find a way to pin it down! If it can't get away, it's fair game!" Andrew looked around, trying to find something to pin the wither down with. Then, an explosion sent Andrew and Robin flying backwards. The wither flew down and said, "You are no match for the wither!" It fired an explosive at Andrew and Robin. Bryan jumped at it, and took an explosive to the chest. He went flying backwards. Andrew and Robin got up, and ran over to Bryan, laying on the ground, smoking. Stevie ran up to him. Stevie said, "No, no, no, no, you're not dying yet!" Stevie reached into his pack. No Golden Apples. He lifted Bryan, and walked towards a pond to put him in, to help the burn. Andrew, Robin, and Horatio turned towards the wither. Andrew and Robin kept firing arrows, and kept getting nowhere. The wither fired an explosive, and they barely dodged it. Horatio thought. Then, he had an idea. He looked towards a mountain out in the desert, not far from Stevie's forest. Horatio said, "Keep him busy, guys! I have an idea!" Andrew said, "Oh, sorry, I was about to take a break!" Horatio smiled, then he ran to the mountain. Once he got there, he got out a crafting table, and some redstone. He grinned.
Stevie put Bryan in the pond, resting Bryan's head on the edge, to keep it from being submerged. Stevie cupped his hands, scooped some water, and threw it on Bryan's face. Bryan shot up. Bryan looked around. He said, "This is my fault." Stevie said, "No, it's not. It's Herobrine's fault. He did this, not you." Bryan said, "Yes, but if I-" He stopped. He said, "Herobrine's alive." Stevie said, "What?!" Bryan said, "It didn't wipe Herobrine, it separated him. I can still feel him. That's how the Forge must have disappeared!"
Horatio ran up to Andrew. He whispered something in his ear, and Andrew smiled. He turned to Robin, and said, "Robin, you stay here." Then, he turned to the wither and said, "Hey wither! Think you can catch this?" Andrew took off towards the mountain. The wither flew after him. Andrew ran into a cave in the sand mountain. The wither flew in after him. Andrew turned around. He stood on a lone piece of cobblestone in the floor. He said, "Um, Mr. Wither? Behind you." The wither looked behind him. Horatio was holding a switch. He flipped it. The cobblestone pulled out from under Andrew, and closed behind him as he fell. Then pistons in the ceiling pulled away the layer of sandstone suspending the sand. The entire mountain of sand fell on the wither, burying it. Andrew climbed out of a trap door, next to where Horatio was. They looked at the mountain. There was an indentation where the top, where that section of the mountain fell on the wither. Andrew turned to Horatio, and said, "Horatio, you mad genius!" Robin said, "That was amazing!" He hugged him, followed by Robin. Stevie, supporting Bryan, walked up, and said, "What did I miss?" Robin said, "Stevie, you should have seen it! Horatio made a contraption that made the mountain fall on the wither!" Horatio said, "Yeah, but Andrew's the one who took the real risk. He got the wither over here!" Robin said, "Why couldn't I help, exactly?" Horatio was silent. Horatio then said, "Well...I.." Andrew said, "He didn't exactly feel comfortable with letting the wither chase you into a confined space." Horatio said, "Well...yeah, what he said." Robin said, "I can handle myself, you kno-" Stevie interjected. He said, "This is all well and good, but we have a problem. Herobrine's alive. Somehow, the Forge separated Herobrine from Bryan. The only reason he's not Hero again is because he still retained a bit of Bryan's JavaScriptic makeup." After a few seconds of silence, Andrew said, "Is that where the Forge went? Herobrine has it?!" Stevie nodded. He then said, "Come with me. I have something to show you."
Back in the stronghold, Stevie and Bryan walked into the center of the library. Stevie and Bryan pulled two switches simultaneously. A hole opened up in the center of the library. Rising from the floor, pistons pushed up an odd little table, made of obsidian, with a book on top of it, and what looked like some kind of brewing stand. Stevie said, "These are my miniature JavaScript altering devices. They're still in their experimental stage, so I didn't know what would happen if I used them." He gestured to the small table. "This is my tool and armor enhancement and upgrade table." Bryan said, "We just call it the Enchanting Table. And over here..." Bryan gestured to the brewing stand, "Is the performance enchancer brewer. We just call it the Brewing Stand." Stevie said, "Let's get upgrades. I hope."
