"Let's see..." Dan said while logging into Minecraft. "If this room you found has clues, maybe Dr. Trayaurus could give us a hand in checking it out."
She nodded. "Yeah." she agreed, pulling a chair over.
He smiled when his avatar appeared at his last spawn point and headed for the hall near the test lab.
Trayaurus turned hearing Dan enter. [Hello.] he greeted him.
[Hey, Trayaurus. What are you up to?] Dan asked.
[Just cleaning up from earlier. What do you need?] He asked.
Alex watched.
[Well. We are going to check out the place where Alex found the book, to see if it has any connections to our team.] Dan explain to him. [ Or something like that.]
Trayaurus nodded. [Alright. I take it you'd like me to come with you?]
Dan smiled behind the screen. [ Yes.]
[Alright. There better not be any zombies down there.]
[ If there are, I'll go clear a way.] Dan replied. He looked around for Grim since he couldn't call for him.
[Grim is in the office.] Trayaurus told him.
[Thanks. I'll see you at the hole.] He typed back and headed to the office.
Trayaurus nodded and went to go wait for him.
Dan went into the office and fetch a sword from the treasure vault.
Alex watched and cast a slight glance at her helmet but a ping of fear made her turn away.
Dan got Grim and walk to the hall with the hole. [Are you ready Trayaurus?]
[Yes.] He nodded.
[Alright. Let's go!] He replied, and jumped in with a torch in hand.
Trayaurus quickly followed him down. Alex watched.
Dan glanced at Alex, he would have asked if she wanted to join them in Minecraft but maybe it was best if she didn't, since after the encounter with Herobrine.
He then followed the torches that lit the path to the room.
She quietly watched. It was strange not being there herself. She furrowed her brow as she saw the pictures go by.
Trayaurus followed Dan.
They soon arrived at the door that led to the room. [This is it. I'll go in first.] Dan told Trayaurus through the chat box.
Alex had quietly gotten up and went over to the couch and held her helmet in her hands, staring at it.
She hesitated as she stared at it.
She took a deep breath and slipped it on and sat down, starting Minecraft up.
Meanwhile, Dan did a full check around the room for mobs and came back to the door. [ It's all clear. You can come in now.]
Trayaurus nodded and came in.
As he did a little notification popped up in the chat box.
[Alex has joined the world]
"What?" Dan said, looking away from screen and saw that she was on the couch with the helmet. [ Huh. Looks like Alex is joining us.]
[That I am.] Alex replied. [I'll be there in a second.]
Trayaurus waited until he heard her running down the tunnel and she caught up to them.
She stepped inside with them and glanced around.
She saw the beam of light was still there but the torches had gone out.
She looked around until she found a lever and pulled it.
The torches burst to life and lit the chamber.
Trayaurus looked around in amazement.
Alex started examining the floors' mosaic.
Nine beautiful, colorful, designs covered the floor in a large diamond like shape.
Each one had a pedestal on top of a beacon.
They had some kind of design on each of them but each one different from the next.
The walls were still covered with hieroglyphic like engravings.
Dan admired the designs on the floor as he walked over to wall. He looked at the engravings. [I wonder what this is all about?]
She nodded. [Yeah...]
Trayaurus looked at the walls curiously. [I could translate these back at the lab probably.]
Alex nodded. [Sounds good...] she stepped into the mosaic circle in the middle of the eight others.
It was a beautiful forest green.
She examined it curiously.
Dan was taking some screenshots of the walls with the engravings. Surprisingly, there were a lot. [ I got some pictures for you Trayaurus.]
[Great. Send those to me when you can.] he replied.
Alex looked around at the other spots. [There are nine places.]
Dan typed back as he looked over at the mosaic circle. [Will do. Also, what's this about nine places?]
[This spot here is mine. There are eight more surrounding it. I assume that means nine members.] Alex replied.
He looked around. [Hmm. I think your right. So far. We just have five members.]
She nodded. [So, we need four more.]
Dan stepped over a sky-blue color spot in the mosaic. [I will assume this one's mine. Now we just need to wait for the last four to make contact.]
Trayaurus turned around and looked at the floor. He stepped over to a grey stone like one on Dan's right. [I think this is mine...] Trayaurus told them as he examined it.
Alex watched curiously. [I... I think your right.]
Dan smiled at the screen. [Of Course! We can't have a team without you, Trayaurus.]
Alex saw Trayaurus smile a bit. She smiled a bit at that. [It's true.] She agreed. [So, we have six members.]
[Just need three more.] Dan replied, looking around at the other color stones.
Alex hummed softly as she looked at them. [So, I'm in the middle, you're to my left and Trayaurus is to your right. Going clock wise to you is purple, teal, pink, ice blue, yellow, and orange then back to Trayaurus...] Alex said as she looked at them.
[Well. You are the leader. So, you should get the middle.] Dan said in the chat box. [ But I wonder who are these three.] He said, glancing at the purple stone.
[Oh. Yeah. Mine too...] She chuckled slightly. [I guess we'll have to wait and see?]
[I suppose we have to.] He replied. [ Because the only hint Notch gave us, was that I know them...]
Alex nodded.
Jemma put a hand on Dan's shoulder. "Hey. What are you and Alex up to?" She asked softly. She caught a glimpse of the purple mosaic.
He gave her a quick look. "Oh, just trying to figure out who our last three team members are. We got six so far."
"Who do you have so far?" She asked.
"Me, Alex, Stampy, Sqaishey, Thinknoodles, and Trayaurus." He replied.
"Am I maybe involved?" she asked curiously.
Dan thought about it and glanced back at the screen. "Hmm. Maybe."
Jemma was about ask something else when Dan's phone dinged alerting him of a text.
He reached over and check his phone.
It was from Justin.
[Notch contacted me saying that Rachelle is in the team too.]
After reading the news, Dan was more than positive that Jemma would be a part of the team. "Huh. That narrows it down." He said while texting Justin back. [That's great. Did he say anything else?]
[Yeah. He said that he'd be contacting you soon about the meeting.] He replied.
[Alright. Did you guys hear about the Herobrine warning?] Dan asked.
[Yeah. Twitter was going mad about it.] Justin replied. [You and Alex are safe, right?]
Alex was still looking around the area when she noticed Dan had stopped. [Dan?]
Dan glanced at the computer screen. [Yes. So far.] He replied to Justin. [But thanks for the update. We will be sure to let you know if anything happens.]
[Alright. Let me know when the meeting is.] Justin replied.
[We will.] Dan text back and started typing in the Minecraft chat box. [ Got a call from Justin. Rachelle is in the team and I think Jemma is a part of the team as well.]
[Then there's only one left.] Alex replied. [We just need to find out who.]
[Yes.] Dan agreed. [He also said that Notch is going to contact us soon about a meeting.]
[Good thing I brought the book with me then.] She took it out of her inventory, it was enchanted again.
Dan moved his game avatar over to watch.
She opened the book.
[Hello Alexa. May I speak to Dan?]
She nodded and handed the book to Dan's avatar.
[Hello again. I take it you've found mostly everyone and they contacted you?]
[Yes. They have.] Dan replied. [We are still waiting on the last on.]
[I'm afraid she won't be contacting you... I'll explain more in the meeting but you need to get everyone together here as soon as possible.]
"Okay." Dan replied. "So, you mean everyone has to meet here? In this room?"
[It is the safest place. My brother cannot step foot in here. At least for now. You could meet in the lab if you prefer but it would be more open.] He replied.
"Alright. I'll go and let everyone know to meet here.] Dan said while looking at the screen.
[Alright. I will talk to you again soon.]
Alex waited patiently.
Dan gave the book back to her. [The meeting is starting. I have to go get the others.]
[Okay. I'll stay here with Trayaurus.]
Dan then logged out and started to contact the team. "Jemma, are you ready to try logging into Minecraft?" He asked, while texting the others.
Jemma nodded. "I'll grab my computer." she quickly went to go get her computer.
The pugs ran in as she returned with it.
Dan spun around in his chair. "It's done. I told everyone where to meet us."
Jemma nodded. She sat down on the beanbag. "You did warn them about the going unconscious, right?"
Dan glanced at the phone and quickly send another text to warn them. "There. Now everyone is informed about this."
Jemma nodded. "Alright. Ready when you are." she told him, sitting on the couch next to Alex's unconscious form.
She sat her laptop on the table next to her.
Dan smiled. "Alright. Let's do this." After signing into Minecraft, he went and sat on the beanbag close to the couch to wait for the program to finish loading.
Jemma logged into it as well and felt the wave of lightheadedness hit her. She laid back.
Dan closed his eyes before passing out and woke up back inside Minecraft.
