Jesse skidded to a halt in front of an Enderman, and proceeded to do something that she'd never done before and probably would never do again, with maybe the exception of Olivia. She looked it dead in the eye.

The Enderman screeched in rage, Jesse whirling around and making eye contact with several more of the monsters, making a circle of them surround her until she was surrounded by the tall monsters.

One of the long black arms swung at her, but Jesse flung herself onto her back just in time for it to sail harmlessly over her head. Doing a quick flip so she was on all eights, she immediately tore out of the circle just as the tractor beam swung over to land right on the crowd of Endermen, sucking up six of the monsters in one go.

Stampy was bouncing anxiously in his seat and chanting "panicpanicpanicpanicpanic" under his breath, which probably didn't make Real-Jesse feel any better, the girl having her head turned to the side so that she was watching the screen out of the corner of her eye. Most of the audience had taken to doing the same- either that or covering their eyes except for the slightest slit.

The spider hybrid scuttled away from another tractor beam that started chasing her, sucking up multiple of the tall monsters at once, before whipping to her feet and snatching a stone block out of another Enderman's arms. "How do you like that?!" she shouted at it, probably to enrage the Enderman.

It definitely worked. The Enderman started screaming with rage, a tractor beam landing on it right as Jesse darted off to the side and continued making her way through the horde of Endermen, waving her arms and yelling as loud as she could, attracting the attention of multiple of said monsters.

"Notch, I swear, you're all insane," Stacy gasped, having most of her face hidden in her hands.

Jesse thought about this, before giving the brunette girl a sage nod.

"Probably."

Jesse glanced over her shoulder onscreen and let out a shriek. The screen changed to show that there was a tractor beam following her. "Crap crap crap!"

"Run, Jesse!" Lukas yelled, squeezing the girl that he currently had his arm around and making her squeak involuntarily.

Jesse did a sort of flip to her left, the tractor beam blazing past her and then backtracking as another Enderman tried to hit her. She ducked under the hit easily as two more of its friends joined it, screeching furiously. She did quick sort of backflip to launch herself out of the way as the tractor beam shone right on the three Endermen, sucking them all up and away.

Dropping to all eights again, she began to scuttle rapidly through the crowd, chancing a glance up at the Witherstorm.

The screen changed to show the Witherstorm starting to crawl with Endermen, tearing blocks off of it. Olivia bleeped into sight on one of the tentacles, nearly falling off, before yelling at a nearby Enderman, her magenta eye flaring angrily, before she reached down and ripped a block off. Teleporting away, she teleported next to another Enderman and yelled at that one, before ripping off some more blocks herself and teleporting away again.

"It's working!" Gill shouted, making Maya wince as he pretty much yelled into her ear.

"Woo!" Axel pumped his fists in the air, making Olivia look at him. "Go Olivia!"

She grinned.

Onscreen, Jesse did the same, before dropping back to all eights and darting around tractor beams as they tried to land on her, falling on the Endermen rapidly and sucking them all up.

Scuttling up to an Enderman who was wandering around a tractor beam and whipping back to her feet, Jesse then proceeded to do something that no sane person would EVER do. She shoved it with all of her might and an angry hiss, causing it to topple straight into a tractor beam.

The audience gasped, even Hadrian, and Mevia, and even Aiden.

"You..." Isa was goggling at Jesse. "You just shoved an Enderman. An Enderman."

The Enderman whipped around to screech at her in rage, just as it got sucked up out of sight. Letting out a slight sigh of relief, Jesse dropped back to all eights and kept scuttling through the crowd, before someone tripped over her and bowled her over as well.

The audience winced.

"Axel, are those snowballs?!" Jesse exclaimed, rubbing her side using her lower arms in slight pain.

Axel's head snapped around from where he'd nearly faceplanted, nodding and rifling through his pocket. "Yeah, I found them near the cave- here!" And he passed a few to her before rushing off to get even more Endermen angry. All six of Jesse's arms flew up, a snowball slapping neatly into each one.

"Are you going to have a snowball fight with these Endermen?" Dan asked, raising his eyebrows at Jesse. The black-haired girl shrugged back.

"Apparently."

Tossing one in her topmost left hand, Jesse whirled around and took aim at three Endermen that just happened to be standing there, minding their own business. "How do you like this?!" she yelled, chucking three of them at once at all three Endermen.

The three of them teleported, reappearing right in Jesse's face, screeching loudly, just as a tractor beam started closing in on the group.

"Uh, note to self- never have a snowball fight with an Enderman," Lukas remarked.

Jesse's eyes hardened, and she flung herself backwards, doing a backflip and kicking one of the Endermen in the face in the process, before landing on all eights and scrambling away as they were sucked up into the Witherstorm, more and more getting sucked up by the tractor beam.

Dodging to the right as another tractor beam blazed at her, she ended up right in front of a couple of Enderman. She looked up, craning her neck in what looked like a rather uncomfortable way, and made eye contact with them, making them shriek at her as she bolted, the tractor beam chasing Jesse and sucking up the tall monsters that were also starting to chase Jesse. "Come and get me!" she snarled at them, making more and more get even more enraged and chase after her.

"Y'know, if someone had told me that I'd be watching an alternate version of myself who happens to be a female running around in a crowd of Endermen and purposely making them mad, I would've told them that they were insane," Jace said, watching the screen.

Jesse hummed in agreement.

"Reuben, you mind giving me some help?!" Jesse shouted out to her little pink pig as she spotted him running around in the crowd of Endermen. Reuben bobbed his head up and down as he nodded with a squeal.

Jesse adjusted her path towards another Enderman, which was standing in front of a tractor beam and facing Jesse, Reuben moving so that he was behind the Enderman.

"Hang on," Magnus spoke up, eyes widening, "she's not gonna-"

Whipping upright, Jesse let out a loud yell and, using all six of her arms, shoved the Enderman in the chest as hard as possible.

The audience gasped again.

"Are you trying to kill yourself?!" Em yelled to Jesse, making the girl flinch a bit instinctively.

The Enderman stumbled over Reuben and tripped right into the tractor beam, which sucked it up even as it gave her an enraged scream. "Nice one, Reuben!" Jesse shouted to her pig, before turning and sprinting away in the other direction.

An Enderman reached down to hit her, but she quickly tensed her legs and did a flip over them as a tractor beam sucked them up, before dropping to all eights and crawling rapidly through the crowd. In the corner of the screen, Ivor ducked a tentacle from one of the smaller Witherstorms, while Magnus hauled back and chucked a block of TNT at it. Soren was throwing random things to attract the tractor beam away from Gabriel, who was also attempting to anger some of the Endermen and doing a pretty good job of it.

Ivor let out a quiet sigh of relief.

A huge section of the wall of Soren's fortress swooped right at Jesse from the left, the spider hybrid apparently not noticing until the last second, where her head snapped around.

"Look out!" Nell yelled, which was kind of useless because of course, onscreen-Jesse couldn't hear her.

Jesse flung herself sideways, balancing momentarily on only four of her limbs as a huge section of it passed underneath her, before quickly dodging onto it and racing along the wall, scuttling along as quickly as possible to avoid getting sucked into the Witherstorm.

"C'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon-" Petra muttered as if it were some sort of bizarre mantra, eyes narrowing in worry.

She reached the edge and jumped off, slamming into an Enderman upon landing and knocking it into a tractor beam as it whipped around to screech at her. It got sucked up out of sight.

Olivia waved furiously at her, Jesse looking up in the direction of the Enderman hybrid and then racing over. Olivia's arms were stiff and locked, but her expression was all excited. "Jesse, look, it's working! That hole's big enough to get inside of!" She pointed, and Jesse followed her arm. The screen changed to show a gaping hole in the side of the main Witherstorm.

"Now we just need to find you a way up," Axel said, looking up.

Jesse paused thoughtfully, before turning to Axel. "Axel, I'm going to stand on your back in a couple seconds."

Axel's brow furrowed. "O... kay," he said unsurely.

"I want you to blow up."

"WHAT?!"

Axel, Olivia and Lukas had all yelled this at Jesse, but so had many members of the audience. The volume of all the combined voices was enough to make Real-Jesse wince and touch one of her ears as if she wanted to cover it.

"Trust me! I have an idea-" Jesse was saying urgently, when suddenly Olivia cut her off.

"Axel, watch out!"

Axel let out a scream as a tractor beam suddenly landed on him.

"AXEL!" Several members of the audience near screamed.

Olivia seized his leg before he could go too far and tightening her grip, her teeth sharpening in rage even as she did so. Jesse wrapped string around Olivia's leg as the Enderman hybrid started rising up as well and tightened her own grip. Lukas seized ahold of Jesse's waist, but even now they were starting to get lifted up.

"No!" Petra yelled. "No!"

A firework suddenly soared out of nowhere and exploded right in the Witherstorm's face, making it look around. Jesse whipped around to see where it had come from, her eyes widening in shock when she did.

The three Ocelot members were rifling through their pockets in a hot panic, over on a ridge about twelve feet away.

"You guys are okay!" Jesse shouted in excitement, eyes lighting up.

"Hey! Do you guys need help?" Aiden shouted to them, brow furrowing. His eyes were rather discolored, showing that he must've gotten amnesia as well.

"Yeah, we need to-" Jesse gasped as she almost lost her grip on Olivia's leg and tightened her grip. "We need to distract the Witherstorm!"

Gill looked up at the Witherstorm, before giving the group a grin, discolored eyes gleaming. "Then leave that to us!" He pulled something else out of his pocket and launched it, sending another firework launching into the sky.

"You guys are the freaking best!" Jace cheered, whirling around and grinning at the Ocelots. All three of them blinked at him, before giving each other sheepish grins from where they were all sitting.

The tractor beam started to move away from the group towards the Ocelots, whereupon Axel, Olivia, Lukas, and Jesse all fell to the ground with loud yelps. Shaking her head, the spider hybrid jumped to her feet, determination shining to life in her eyes. "Olivia, keep the Endermen angry!" Jesse told the Enderman hybrid, who nodded affirmatively.

Lukas was starting to run towards his friends, dropping to all fours to move more quickly. "We'll keep the Witherstorms distracted for as long as we can."

Maya nodded and saluted to the group, her own eyes oddly discolored. "All right! Eyes on us, you great big bully!" she yelled at the Witherstorm, pinwheeling her arms.

"You can do this, okay?" Olivia said more quietly, looking Jesse dead in the eye. "We all know you can."

Axel and Lukas nodded their agreement to that, giving Jesse a playful little salute.

"Yeah, you'll be just fine," and Petra clapped Jesse on the back. This time, the black-haired girl involuntarily let out a grunt at the impact, wincing slightly, but still faintly enough that it was just barely noticeable.

"Thanks, guys," Jesse said, grinning at her friends, before quickly running to Axel. Axel dropped all fours and Jesse leapfrogged onto his back. "Ready, Axel?" she called down to him, all of her muscles bunching up in a preparatory way.

The burly boy nodded silently, and he began to flash white. Without warning, Reuben leaped into Jesse's arms, the spider hybrid automatically reaching out with her lower arms and catching him, her eyes widening. "Reuben!" she gasped, "this is no place for a-"

Axel exploded, sending Jesse flying into the air as her lower arms tightening around Reuben. "-PIIIIIIG!" she finished the statement with a scream, turning in midair and lashing out with one of her upper arms. sending a strand of silk that flew straight through the gaping the hole in the Witherstorm, before retracting, sending Jesse flying straight into the belly of the beast.

The screen blacked out.

"Reuben!" Jesse said scoldingly to the pig, making him shrink away at the tone in her voice, although it was pretty clear from the expression in her eyes that she was more worried than angry, "you shouldn't have done that."

"Yeah, you could've knocked Jesse off," Jace said, but he sounded less scolding as he fondled the pig's ears.

"Well, hopefully you two should be fine," Hadrian said. (He did not sound very hopeful, to be honest.) "After all, it's not like the Witherstorm can attack you while you're inside it."

"You just jinxed it," Lizzie said, arching her eyebrow at the white-haired man.
