Location: Twilight Portal Exit, Overworld
Time: 8:05 PM
Vanessa's PoV
Every day was exactly the same. My sister, her dumb boyfriend, and their annoying friends keep pestering me about when the base will be ready. I've just about slaved over every piece of machinery we managed to salvage from our first base in order to build the engine components, for weeks it's been nothing but work! I mean, I'm a fucking thirteen year old girl! I should be out selling cookies or some shit like that, not risking my life to save the world!
I heard my phone ring and I knew exactly what what going to come next. I answered the call and held back the urge to scream.
"Yo, 'Nessa! How's the new coming along? We could really use an update right about now." my sister's voice came through.
"Yes, Steph. It's coming along just fine. Almost ready it fact, Just like the million other times you've asked, in fact."
The phone was silent for a moment. "I've only asked, like, ten times tops."
"Well...er...that's a lot for me."
"Oh, well, I'm very sorry to deprive you of your ever so precious work...what? What is it...oh, shit. Look sis, how long until it's, you know, operational? I don't care if it's fully ready, if it can protect us right now that's what we need right about now."
I was intrigued in the background conversation she was having. It sounded like her and the others were having a hard time. "In that case, I just have to do some final checks and it'll be ready."
"Well, no pressure, but if it's not good to go in the next five minutes we're going to be monster food!"
The phone went dead after that. I was worried. Fuck the tests, this is more important...

So, yeah. Not good. I guess Herobrine must have found our location somehow, not surprising with all the divine he's been credited with having. Not long ago, more and more monsters have been attacking the village until suddenly a massive horde of all sorts of these hellish abominations rushed the place, we've been able to hold them off before but now they're just attacking with full force, wave after never ending wave. Our supplies and electricity are running low, and we won't survive another day like this. It's hopeless…
A laser blast threatened to graze me as it flew by and caused a zombie to explode spectacularly. I looked over my shoulder to see Stephanie trying to shoot her mining laser and talk on the phone at the same time, Cupa ran over and pointed, shouting something and pointing, which caused her to hang up and run over. She called to me and told me to follow her, so I finished smashing a spider to death with my shovel and retreated back to our safe zone. I was very disheartened when we had to do this, we were making good progress fighting back but it was all for nothing if we had to retreat.
Just then, huge explosions rippled through the swarms of creatures, killing hundreds of them with only a few blasts. We looked up and heard a voice on a megaphone.
"Came at just the right time, huh? One more minute and you'd all be dead! You can thank me later, heh heh." Vanessa's adorably obnoxious voice sounded off across the horizon.
A massive shape in the distance made everyone's jaws drop. She had done it. She had built, from scratch, a heavily fortified fortress about sixty blocks wide and thirty wide, with storage bays, weapons, everything we needed to survive. That was expected of her. But she had done something that nobody had expected.
The entire base, down to the last block, was MOBILE.
Eight huge wheels thundered across the scorched grass and crushed everything in its path, while the array of deadly weaponry carved a path between it and us. Vanessa urged us to hurry and get inside, so we made a break for it.
The monsters lost all focus in us and tried to, rather pathetically, attack the city on wheels, where they were promptly annihilated.
When we were all inside and safe, Vanessa came down and greeted us, a smug grin on her face.
"How…? How the Nether did you build all this?" Stephanie asked her sibling.
The young cave spider shrugged. "If a nine year old can build a house in an hour a thirteen year old can build a city in a few weeks. Simple really."
"So...we're all safe now? Nothing get get us in here?" Cupa asked.
"Relatively. I had to take it out early to save your asses, so it's not perfect in places, but I can fix those up relatively easily." Vanessa replied.
"Fuck, spiders really are super geniuses aren't they?" Steve muttered to himself. "Players wouldn't have stood a chance against mobs like this, I'm lucky to live such an amazing life here."
"So, in any case, welcome to the Twilight Resistance Mobile Stronghold Mark One. It's kind of long, so I just call it the Leviathan." Vanessa explained. "It's got enough reinforced coverage to shrug off a nuke or two, has incredibly strong radar, infrared, and electromagnetic field jamming, and comes with everything we need to live comfortably, so we're more or less totally secure here. All my design, no need to hold your applause." she said proudly and a little egotistically.
"I helped too." Valerie said meekly.
"That she did." Willow confirmed.
"The only thing it can't do is mine, I ended up scrapping those features since I didn't have enough time, and they really slowed the thing down. So, if we need ground resources we'll still need to go out and dig them up."
"So, where do we go first?" I asked.
"The first medallion piece, of course. The Ender Fragment. We found out where it is, just take us south and we'll find it's final resting place in no time." Andr replied.
"You got it, Let's take this baby out for a REAL test run…"
