A/N:Hey, Ender here. I would like to thank Spazington36, DarkDenizen100, and Derp(Guest) for reviewing this week. On with the chapter.

Herobrine's POV

I stood looking out over the lava lake my fortress was built above, wondering how the lords who were attempting to bring down Teloxen were doing. A stab of pain went through me and I gritted my teeth, not wanting my lords to know I was not healed yet. The healing magic within me had mended my broken spine enough for it to no longer to be life threatening, but it would be some time before it was completely healed. There was no need for all the lords to know of my injury. All it would lead to would be me confined to bed and lots of worry for the others. And I knew this was no time for me to be seen as weak. I could sense a darkness growing in my realm, and I needed to be ready at every moment in case it decided to strike without warning.

I lay on one of the wool benches which lined the room I was in, hoping the soft material would relieve my pain before the lords came looking for me once more. They always seemed to need me for something, and so I was reduced to this, sneaking around so that I may have a few precious moments to myself.

A tap on my shoulder woke me some time later, and I reluctantly opened my eyes.

"This better be important" I growled.

"It is" said Bekka "Mine and Demented's scouts saw a large number of withers heading this way."

I stifled a sigh. Why did all these things happen to me?

"Alright, gather the lords. Make sure there is a portal where you set up stations."

"But why would we need that?" she asked.

"Just do it!" I yelled "There is no time for arguing."

Startled, she nodded, then fled from the room, concern in her eyes. I sighed. I really didn't like keeping things from my lords, but I didn't want them to know how much danger they were in. I could sense an extremely powerful chaos power coming along with the fainter power of the withers.

Following Bekka's path, I found several lords bringing supplies to a cluster of netherbrick and obsidian barricades. The faint sound of a portal could be heard coming from within the construction, and a variety of chests had been placed around it. Demented came over to where I stood watching the preparations. "We need to talk" he said "I know what you are trying to do here, and you really don't have to. We are prepared to help you."

"No" I sighed "This is my choice"

"Very well" said Demented "But if you change your mind, you know where to come."

An explosion at the outer ring of the fortress alerted all to the fact that our enemies had arrived.

"Keep things organized here. I will go make sure all the lords are out of that area"

"If you are sure" said Demented.

"I am. You know what to do if they overwhelm you."

As I walked down the corridor looking for lords, I felt regret growing inside me. Few would understand what I was doing here, even among my lords. A scream from down the hallway shook these troubled thoughts from my mind, and I increased my pace.

Rounding the next corner, I saw Jump cowering in a corner, with several withers bearing down on him through the torn off roof.

"Hey, over here!" I yelled. The withers, momentarily distracted, turned away from Jump and focused on me. Jump used the distraction to dump a potion of invisibility over himself. His rapid footsteps came towards me, then I heard them slow as he made his way past me and traveled further up the corridor. I knew in my weakened state there was no way I could face this many withers, so I ran after him, hoping the withers would not reach our destination before we did. Opening my mind, I found Demented and said to him *The withers are coming. Get everything out. I have Jump with me so don't worry about that.* I got no verbal response, but I felt Demented reluctantly agree.

We reached the room where the fortifications had been made just as Jump's potion wore off.

"Where is everyone?" he gasped as he looked at the abandoned area.

"Gone" I said "And you are going to join them"

"But why?" he asked, turning innocent eyes on me.

"That doesn't matter" I said "All that matters is that you get to safety" I shoved him into the portal and watched as he was transported away. I placed my hand on the surface of the portal, willing it to go through, but as always the misty substance was solid to my touch. It was my curse that I was forced to remain in this realm which I had once considered my haven but had now become my prison.

"So they have all gone" I heard a voice say "Any now you are left. Kept imprisoned by your brother's actions" I turned from the portal to see a woman in a light tan jumpsuit with the rib pattern of a wither printed on it. A nether star was embedded in the iron circlet she wore on her head, its color contrasting with her brown hair.

"Why have you come?" I asked, stepping towards her.

"Why to take your realm silly" she said "Why else would I be here? Its not as if its a great vacation spot or anything."

"I can't let you do that" I said, drawing my diamond sword.

"Oh, I wasn't asking for permission" she said, taking a dagger coated in a dark liquid, and before I could react, shoving it into my torso. The pain from it was so intense I fell to the ground, grasping at the wound. The pain only seemed to increase, sending waved of torment through me.

"What have you done to me?" I gasped, tears of pain coating the netherbrick below.

"Wither poison" she said "This lovely stuff is almost pure chaos energy, and is guaranteed to give anyone a bad day." I felt darkness engulfing me and I cried out, desperate for help but knowing none would be coming for me.

Steve's POV

I reached the portal in the woods only to fins that I was not alone there. Several strangely dressed Crafters stood near the portal. Ducking behind a tree, I pulled out my sword, hoping none of them had spotted me. Who were these strange creatures who were delaying me from trying to help my brother?

I was about to charge around the tree when I saw one of the group, the smallest one, staring at me in complete shock. He then ran over and hugged me tightly.

"You're ok" he said, his voice muffled "How did you get out?"

"Jump, that's not Herobrine" said the girl with the pink hair. She stepped forwards and took hold of the child's hand, who at her words had released me.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"We were told to leave the Nether" said the dark robed man "A threat was coming and Herobrine ordered us to leave. I am Demented, she is Bekka and the young one is Jump."

"But we have to help him!" I said "I felt it" Brushing past them, I attempted to go through the portal, but instead of being transported through it, I slammed into a solid sheet of material.

"She has sealed the portals" said Demented "We have already tried to return"

"Who is she?" I asked.

"Milota, chaos lady of withers" said Demented "She is very powerful, and Herobrine knew he had no chance of winning a fight against her, even with our help. His other lords are scattered through a dozen other portal outputs, trying to come to grips with why they were sent away"

"But he is in trouble" I said " I need to help some how. I wasn't there for him last time he needed help and I regretted it."

"I am not sure what we can do to help" said Demented "Though I wish I could as well. He made his choice and we will have to accept that."

A flash of purple mist similar to that of a Nether portal appeared behind me, and a figure appeared on the ground.

"Well that was not fun" the figure said "Next time warn me about how bad it is actually going to be when you tell me to do something."

"Shadow?" I whispered, hardly daring to believe what my eyes insisted were true.

"Hi Steve" he said, wincing as I jumped on him and proceeded to hug him tightly "Can you please not do that. Coming here wasn't exactly easy or painless"

"Sorry" I said "But how are you here?"

"Long story. But Herobrine needed help so here I am"

"Well the portals are sealed" I said "So good luck with that."

"Why are they sealed" he asked "I can get through a seal, but I need to know what I am going to find on the other side."

"There is a lady of chaos on the other side" said Demented "If you go through, be careful. She is very powerful"

"In that case, theres is no way I can deal with it now" said Shadow "Transporting here took a lot out of me, and as much as I want to help Herobrine, I don't want to be trapped there with him. That wouldn't really be helping anyone."

"I suppose you are right" I sighed "lets get to my castle."


A/N:I hope you have enjoyed this chapter. Reviews are always appreciated, and I read every one I get. Now for questions for the characters.

From Spazington36 to Zeren:why are you so lazy? Stealing someone else's realm. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Zeren: I don't know, it just seems easier. Also I would much rather stay in a already built realm than one my people had to make. Most of them are pretty bad at building anything.

From Spazington36 to Notchie:What is your plan to save Herobrine, Tanya and Ender?

Notchie:Well, I might be able to heal Tanya and Ender if the chaos lords leave, but I don't know enough of what is happening to Herobrine to know how to help him yet.

From Spazington36 to everyone:If you guys had the choice who would you lock in the void forever?

Notch:Teloxen!

Zeren:Illusion, provided he stays put this time.

Everyone Else: Zeren

From Spazington36 to Herobrine:How are you going to save your self?

Herobrine:I have no idea, I saved my lords and thats all I can do right now. Hopefully they can get help.

From DarkDenizen100 to all Chaos lords:so after everything is said and done you'll have everything you want right?

Zeren:Well not everything, but we will have more than we do now.

Sallen:Lets be honest here, this plan isn't going to work so we will have to get whatever it is Zeren wants from the next plan he force me to make.

Teloxen:I haven't got anything except in trouble

Milota:I got control of this lovely realm for my withers, all is good.

Israphel:Sure...

From DarkDenizen100 to Chaos lords:After you get everything you want from this plan Zeren has in mind, what next, Chaos is said to be linked to change so you guys won't go into routines will you.

Zeren:We shall break lots of stuff and watch people try to rebuild it

Sallen:More planing for me probably, it never seems to end

Teloxen:I doubt it will be good for me

Milota:Time to show Crafters how to make withers! XD

Israphel: I guess we shall see

From DarkDenizen100 to Israphel: Do you think Cresilla would be sad to see how you turn out?

Israphel:Yes, probably, but she might understand out of everyone

From DarkDenizen100 to Israphel:know in the future you will lose your good looks and gain even better archery skills as well as be cursed with a creeper face and have to spend many days and nights fighting and plotting aginst a spaceman and a dwarf, how do you feel about this?

Isrpahel:Not sure how I feel about that...but I don't really like dwarves and I have never met a spaceman.

From DarkDenizen100 to Israphel:were you aware that by making a deal with Sallen to save Ender, you had to harm Ender later(cause lets be honest with each other here you love Ender or had a crush on her) if you were aware of this why take the deal and even if you weren't aware why not break the deal?

Israphel: At the time, I didn't know what Sallen's condition for the deal was, only that there was going to be one. When I found out, Zeren had said that if I tried to back out, he would personally kill Ender. I actually think that at first Sallen was just going to let her out to spite Zeren but after he knew about it, there was no way for me to back out of it without Ender being hurt. And yes, I did have a crush on her, but that doesn't matter any more.

From DarkDenizen100 to anyone:why can't Teloxen use both the powers of his Enderlord side and the Chaos side together? do they conflict that much? i mean I've seen a lot of instances where someone with conflicting powers uses them both.

Tanya:Chaos and Enderlord powers react very poorly when mixed and produce wither poison, which can harms the user just as much as the victim in many cases. It can be learned with great amounts of time and effort, but Teloxen has never used his Ender powers and so it would be very dangerous for him to mix his powers.

From DarkDenizen100 to Notch:seriously man can't you direct your hatred more at Zeren and less at Teloxen in the Q and A? keep acting like that and you'll end up like Israphel in the future! you'll go more bald, spend weeks coming up with empty schemes and have no friends at all! you may even end up fighting a spaceman and a dwarf!

Notch:But I really, really don't like Teloxen.

Me:The main reason Notch acts the way he does is that he was unconscious when Zeren talked about what he did to Teloxen, so at some point he will find out what happened and hate Teloxen a bit less.(Only a bit though)

From DarkDenizen100 to Zeren:you do relize with the path your following it will either end in your destruction or a end where you have no friends and hav constant plans for your head to be on a platter(probally Sallen will devise those plans)(oh and even though i've struck him already, like Israphel. to israphel sorry man i hate hypocrites)

Zeren:Well, thats the trouble you get into when you are Chaos lord ruler. Hey, its already happened once to my household and I got through that, so whats one more try.

Sallen:See, the planing never stops and he never learns.

From Derp(Guest) to notch, herobrine, Steve and shadow: if you could undo all the stuff you made in your realms and recreate it, would you?

Notch:Uh, why?

Steve:But my realm is nice now

Herobrine:Only if I wouldn't be trapped again

Shadow:No? I like my realm how it is, but with more ways out

From Derp(Guest) to Zeren: where you the chaos lord form the first couple of chapters in the first book?

Zeren: Yes I was

From Derp(Guest) to Teloxen: since you are half enderlord, can you use ender powers?

Teloxen:Probably, but now without practice

From Derp(Guest) to Zeren: Since the void is a vacancy of realms, dose that mean you lose territory everytime someone makes a realm? And does that mean that you own everything that's not owned by someone else?

Zeren:That is what the void is, and I try to take over other realms to get territory back.

From Derp(Guest) to Steve, herobrine, notch and shadow: what species are you and are you more powerful than chaos lords?

Shadow:Well I am an Enderlord now, like most of my brothers are Crafters now, but we are Builders at heart, a race of creatures with the power to make realms and such.

So if you have any questions for the characters, feel free to PM them to me or leave them in a review. You should also check out my new one shot Building Day. I hope you have a great day and I shall see you all next chapter. Bye! :D
