Sorry for the late chapter post, my computer has been being a real butt lately, because half the time I save something it says it can't reach the Internet! How stupid is that?! Then I have to start all over again!

Hello, this is Pastrinator64 with another chapter from VOiD. I'd just like to ask, were you surprised yesterday that "Pikapika" and "Zombiesorbust had real names, and were actually from Earth? I kinda liked the idea, so I decided it would be an interesting twist... Anyway, now for some replies to reviews!

Somebody10101: Kelsey (Pikapika) and Gabe (Zombiesorbust) are alive inside Minecraft, but their Earth lives are gone, it's their Minecraftian souls that remained. The Pikapika becoming a girl thing wasn't last minute; I'd been thinking about it before.

EnderBlazeHybrid: I'm glad you thought it was funny, I was kinda going for fluff at the end there. With the OCs I'll be having them very, VERY soon.

Guest: Thank you, I went back and changed it. :)

Enderdude: I got it, you're just... Bored... Not because of my story, right. Ok, thank you for clearing that up.

CSICreeper: Bow down, CSICreeper, and go fetch me a pastry! XD

CSICreeper: That's ok, I'm one too! ;) I'm just talking about the idiots who do absolutely nothing but talk, talk, be stupid, talk, and get in trouble. I am not one of those, and I don't think any of my fans are like that, and that includes you.

funkypigeon . com: Are you promoting Pigeot?

Kyle McShade: Well, Kyle, I wish I did have a Hunger Games server, but I can't seem to find any myself. Sorry, fresh out! :/ Your character question is at the bottom, by the way, just in case you didn't read the stuff about Questions And Answers in the beginning.

Well, that's a lot of reviews! I got more reviews on this chapter than I did on the others! Now then, on with the story!

Hello, this is Pastrinator64 with another chapter from VOiD. Last time on VOiD we met a new face belonging to a zombified knight and his undead horse. Mark, Pikapika and their new friend Zombiesorbust transformed their little wooden hut into a small but luxurious mansion. For the next few days while Rexum was away in a desert temple to meditate they gathered all the needed supplies, leaving half of the second day to just have fun. There on the beach Mark found out that Pikapika and Zombiesorbust were actually humans from Earth, and that their real names were Kelsey and Gabe, and that apparently, their Minecraftian souls remained in the Minecraft Dimension. Mark found himself falling in love with Kelsey and her beautiful figure and bouncy personality, but he knew he was WAY out of her league, so his thoughts were spent thinking of how stupid he was. Now we watch as Mark finds yet another face, this one about to be MAULED by the mutated mobs of Minecraft!

Now, let the story commence!

Chapter 6: The Lonely Girl

Mark went to bed feeling worthless that night, and as he crawled into bed he could see Kelsey smiling at him. He turned away and thought to himself,

"She doesn't seem bothered at all that I was so playful on the first attempt, why is that? Maybe she's been waiting for someone to like her for a while now... No, then she'd go after Mr. Sparta."

He looked over at Gabe, who was already asleep. He was starting to remember him as Gabe instead of Zombiesorbust and that it was Kelsey not Pikapika. He hoped that he wouldn't accidently call Kelsey by her username, which would be highly embarrassing.

That night Mark had a short but painful dream.

He was standing in a strange dark castle of some sort. Everything was moving, the floors, the ceiling, the walls, and it was hard to navigate his way through. He could see something glowing at the other end, and he was determined to reach it, but every time he looked down he could only see the gaping holes that would send him plummeting to his death.

He continued to jump from shifting black platform to the next, but he had to move quickly, because he started to sink through. Finally, though, he made it to the other side and started to run towards the white glow in the distance. But then, the floor in front of him rose up and formed a gigantic shifting blob of that black matter. Before Mark could react, it opened its great red eyes and mouth and screeched. Then, it extended two massive black wings and launched forward, consuming him in an agonizing blast of cold and dark.

Mark's eyes flashed open. He had broken into a terribly cold sweat. Mark looked to his left to see that Kelsey was still asleep, and then to his right to see Gabe was also asleep. He sighed and wiped the sweat off his forehead with his covers, and then stood up out of bed.

He walked over to their chest and looked inside for something to eat. But while he was looking for a porkchop, he heard a noise come from outside. He stopped for a moment and then looked out their window. He could see a group of mutated mobs swarming around something. Then he heard a little girl's bloodcurdling scream.

Mark quickly rushed back to the chest and grabbed his sword. He ran to their double doors and busted them open. He didn't care about the mutated environment, he ran right towards the group of mutated mobs. He heard another scream come from the little girl that they were swarming.

As he was running a mutated enderman that was in the group saw him and lashed out with sickly green tentacles that were its arms. Mark sliced them in half with adrenaline and then stabbed the mutant in the chest, spurting out black blood. He continued on and attracted all of the remaining mobs; a mutated skeleton, mutated Creeper and mutated zombie.

The skeleton with the two glowing eye sockets shot a cackling skull on a bone chain from its bow, which bit into Mark's arm and seeped acid. He returned the favor by grabbing the bone chain and pulling the mutated skeleton towards him, then cracking its skull in half with his diamond blade.

The mutant black Creeper came up next, and it let out a scratchy hiss, then from out of its dead eye sockets smoke began to billow. The cloud of smoke was launched towards Mark, who sidestepped quickly and continued forward. The mutated black Creeper lunged forward and hissed, swelling up to explode. Mark held his sword in a blocking position, which shielded him a little from the massive blast. He was splattered all over with that gooey black blood.

Finally came the blue mutant zombie, which ripped off its arm and chucked it. The arm grabbed onto Mark's leg and pulled him to the ground. Mark stabbed it through the palm, and then pulled it off, quickly backing up to avoid the toss of the zombie's other arm. He looked back at the mutant zombie and saw it regrow its clammy blue limbs. Then it opened its dead eye sockets and revealed two bloodshot eyeballs, which were launched at Mark. The eyeballs stuck to Mark's chest and opened their pupil mouths to rip his chest to shreds, but Mark shook so hard that they flew off, and he quickly crushed them underfoot. While the mutant zombie was blind for that split second he lunged forward and stabbed the zombie in the forehead, his sword piercing through its sludgy brain and sending it out the other side. The zombie too exploded with black blood, practically drowning Mark in it.

Mark panted for a moment, and then heard the little girl scream again. He saw her being dragged to the ground by the tall grass, which he quickly sliced at with his sword. He clasped his hand onto the little girl's and they ran back to their mansion, over the moat and through the doors. He slammed the doors shut, which woke up both Kelsey and Gabe. Kelsey was the first to get up, and when she got out of bed and saw Mark on his hands and knees panting on the ground with the little girl she ran to the food chest and then to them with several porkchops.

Mark was so weak that he was lying flat on the ground. The black blood covering him from head to toe seemed to be draining his energy somehow, and he felt extremely weak, and it all just burned his skin. His breathing had turned extremely shallow, and he felt like he was about to pass out. As Kelsey was shoving the porkchops down his throat she screamed,

"What happened?!"

The porkchops helped him a little, but he still felt drained and burned up. Kelsey ran over and found some wool blocks, which she used to soak up all of the murky blood. She took the drenched black wool blocks and threw them in the moat to be disposed of. After the blood was soaked from Mark's skin he felt as though he was beginning to heal, and after about ten minutes he could sit up. Now he could even see better, the blood had rendered his vision nearly useless.

He saw Kelsey tending to the little girl near her bed. She was feeding her a porkchop. The little girl looked no older than maybe six years old, but for sure she looked absolutely terrified.

"What's your name?" asked Kelsey.

The girl just started crying, and she put her face in Kelsey's shoulder. Kelsey held the girl close and comforted her, rubbing her back to attempt to calm her down. The little girl continued to cry.

"M-m-m-mommy! I w-w-want m-m-mommy!" she sputtered, her tears soaking Kelsey's shirt.

Kelsey lightly shushed the girl and continued to hold her until she stopped crying. She looked over at Mark and said,

"She's been through a traumatic experience, she might not be able to talk to us yet."

Gabe approached at that moment and when he saw the girl he said,

"Where did the girl come from?"

"We don't know. She's too upset and she's lost her mom." said Mark, still looking at the little girl.

They stayed in their positions for another twenty minutes, but then finally the girl had quieted herself to whimpering. Kelsey continued to comfort her, and then spoke again.

"What's your name, honey?"

The little girl sniffled and looked up at Kelsey with chocolate brown eyes reddened from her weeping.

"I d-don't know..."

"Do you know where your mommy is?"

"She's g-g-gone! Mommy g-got eaten by the m-m-monsters! I'm-m-m all alone!"

"Do you know where you came from?"

The little girl started to cry again and put her face back in Kelsey's arm.

"Don't you remember anything?"

She looked back up at Kelsey and sputtered,

"N-no!"

Mark looked at Kelsey and caught her gaze.

"Why doesn't she remember anything?" he murmured.

Kelsey sighed and said,

"I don't know why..."

Gabe spoke from behind.

"I know why. The Glitch is running rampant through the Minecraft Dimension. The young and feeble minds of this world are being swiped, her memories are gone due to how weak this dimension is becoming. We must stay strong, otherwise we will suffer the same fate."

The two of them turned around to look at Gabe, who had his beefy arms crossed and his face dead serious. Mark looked back at Kelsey, who continued to talk with the amnesia-struck little girl.

"Alright, here's what we'll do. You can stay with us, we'll keep you safe, ok? Does that sound good?" she asked calmly.

The little girl sniffled and looked up with tears streaming down her cheeks. She whimpered, but nodded lightly. Kelsey helped her into her bed and said,

"You can sleep with me."

The girl nodded and pulled the covers over herself. Kelsey slid in bed next to the girl and then looked at Mark and Gabe.

"You two get back to bed as well. We have all day tomorrow to do whatever we want."

So they all went back to bed. Mark sighed with exhaustion and flopped onto his bed, crawling underneath the warm covers to finally get some sleep.

Everyone woke up a few hours later than usual the next morning, and it was nearly noon by the time they were all up an about. Mark stood up out of bed and walked over to the food chest to have some lunch since it was lunchtime already. Once he was finished with his loaves of bread he walked outside and breathed in the fresh morning air, smiling to himself, looking out at the beautiful forest.

Mark stood outside until his friends were all outside with him. He looked at Kelsey and Gabe and the little girl.

"So, what should we do?"

Mark looked out at the forest, waiting for a suggestion. Then he turned to look at the desert. Then he saw the desert temple in the distance and had an idea. He raised a finger and said,

"I know what we're going to do today!"

He ran off into the sand of the desert, heading towards the desert temple in the distance. Kelsey called from behind,

"What are you doing?!"

"I'm going to loot that desert temple!"

Mark didn't hear either of his friends following from behind, and when he turned his head he didn't see anyone behind him.

"Oh well, your loss!" he shouted.

"I don't believe so, young chap!"

Mark turned his head in the other direction and saw Gabe zoom past him on the green blur that was Felix the undead horse.

"Hey! You're a cheater!" Mark shouted, trying to catch up but failing.

Gabe laughed heartily and raised his zombie sword in one hand and a diamond pick in the other.

"Onward, Felix!"

The clammy green horse sped up and let out an unearthly neigh. Gabe tied Felix to the sandstone wall of the desert temple and waited for Mark to catch up. Once they were together again they both gripped their diamond picks and tunneled into the temple. They stepped into the room, and Mark froze in place, quickly holding out his arm to stop Gabe from moving. Sitting in the very center of the room was Rexum, and he was meditating.

"So THIS is the temple he was using!" thought Mark.

Mark put a finger to his lips and slowly broke open the block below him. As silently as possible the two of them tunneled down into the floor until they were low enough. Then Mark tunneled forward and quickly broke through to the secret treasure room. He looked down at the pressure plate sitting in the center and destroyed it with his pick.

Now that it was safe they walked inside and looted the chests. Together they got seven diamonds, four gold ingots, four emeralds and six pieces of rotten flesh. It was a pretty good find, and they now had a whole eight diamonds including the one at home.

This time Mark got a ride with Gabe on Felix's back as they headed back towards home. They hoped sincerely that they didn't disturb Rexum while he was meditating. Once they were home they entered and saw Kelsey talking with the little girl. There was something in the girl's hands too. As they walked closer it became clear, and sitting in her hands was a silverfish. The silverfish seemed completely fine with being there and even passive.

Kelsey even reached down and picked up the silverfish, which let out a clicking noise and rubbed itself against her arm. The little girl quickly snatched back the silverfish and said,

"Don't squeeze Mickey! He doesn't like being squeezed!"

"Alright, I won't touch him! How do you know he doesn't like it?"

"Mickey talks to me up here. He knows lots of words." the little girl answered plainly, tapping her head.

Kelsey smiled and said,

"Well, I think Mickey is very cute."

Mark cleared his throat and both girls looked at him and Gabe. He held up his left arm to show them his hotbar with all the looted goods inside. Kelsey grinned and said,

"Found quite a few diamonds, I see!"

"Yes, this happened to be a very successful looting. We almost disturbed your old friend, er, Rexum, as I remember?" said Gabe.

Kelsey nodded and said,

"I was just getting to know Amelia."

"So, she remembers her name?"

"No," Kelsey turned to look back at the girl. "That's what I've decided to call her."

"I like it, it's pretty!" said Amelia.

The little girl hugged Kelsey again and said,

"Miss, you're really nice, you know!"

"Why thank you!"

Mark and Gabe left the house again and then looked out into the desert while standing on the border of the forest and the sand. Mark squinted at the sun and noticed that it had gone past its highest peak and was just barely beginning to descend back down towards the horizon. They still had several hours, maybe four or so to do whatever they wanted—which was still relatively short in Minecraft time.

Mark and Gabe sat down by a tree and just talked.

"What was your life back in the 3rd Dimension?" asked Gabe, folding his arms.

Mark sighed and then looked out into the desert sadly.

"Well, I used to have a lot of friends, believe it or not." he didn't see Gabe even smile the slightest. "A lot of people liked me; I was the jokester of the group. Even so, I only ever had one girlfriend, and she was a lot like Kelsey, or at least from what I can remember, I don't even remember her name. Being sucked into Minecraft really took its toll. I only have you and Kelsey as friends now. No offense." he added.

"None taken, my friend."

"So, um, what about you? Did you have any other knight friends?"

"Friendships can be a misleading conduct, I choose not to side with anyone, as it could cost my life or others in the future due to the possible betrayal."

Mark furrowed his eyebrows together in disbelief.

"Really? You think that friendship is an absolute waste? You must be kidding!"

Gabe looked out into the desert and did not answer right away, but then spoke about ten seconds later.

"There are only some relationships that do not lead to danger. Those are very rare occurrences, and I have only had such a relationship with my fellow knights. We were humble, honorable, noble, and never ones to betray another. But only then have I truly trusted another soul."

Mark stayed silent for a bit, but then said,

"So, did you ever have, like, a girlfriend? You know, back on Earth before you died and came here? I mean, I would think you'd be swarmed by girls with those muscles and looks of yours."

That made Gabe crack a small smile.

"So, Mr. Sparta really can smile."

"Yes, I actually had several girlfriends. One was named Maria, then Mary, then Maxime, then Marylyn, then Margaret. But none of them were ever good enough for me, I wanted someone who cared about who I really was, all five of them cared most about my body rather than personality." he answered, his smile melting away.

Mark looked back at their home and could see Kelsey throwing up the little girl into the air and then catching her, smiling with her perfect white teeth. He pointed towards the window and said,

"Well, I don't know about you, but I'm going for her."

Gabe looked throw the window in the distance as well and said,

"Kelsey?"

Mark rolled his eyes and muttered,

"No, the little girl." then he sighed and rested his chin in his hands, staring longingly at Kelsey's beautiful face. "It's just... She's so, cute! Everything about her is cute! Her hips are cute, her arms are cute, her legs are even cuter and she has cute little hands and feet! Even the way she flips her blond hair back is cute! She's cuter than a fresh litter of puppies, I say! She's... Oh man, I can't get over her!"

Gabe looked at him and scratched his chin like he was thinking.

"You look very nervous."

Mark sighed and shook his hands in frustration.

"I know! Whenever I'm around her I get all red and sweaty, plus the fact that I look like a total noob doesn't help."

Gabe smiled and said,

"You must win her heart if you truly love her. Be her man, if she is ever in need of anything you give it to her. Be noble as I and you will obtain the true love you desire."

Mark sighed and looked down at his sneakers.

"Yeah, but like I said, my appearance doesn't help the matter. I'll be all alone as long as I have this body."

"Your appearance changes the matter in no way, my friend. It doesn't matter how you appear physically, you must help her focus on the person inside. You will be able to achieve your goal, Mark Cobweb, I have faith in you." said Gabe, who patted him on the back.

Mark continued to look through the window at Kelsey. They spent a whole two short hours just admiring the trees, Kelsey, the beautiful sand dunes, the sky, Kelsey, their amazing mansion, and more of Kelsey. After that time had passed they looked into the sky to see the sun dipping closer to the horizon, casting an orange-red glow across the landscape.

Mark and Gabe entered their small mansion and just sort of hang around being bored for the last few hours. As the sun was halfway down the horizon Rexum walked in the door with his Eyestone. He looked rested from his three-day meditation. His green robes were miraculously mended, shiny and clean again. Altogether he just looked rejuvenated. Rexum walked silently to their chests and put everything they owned in that inventory built into his robe sleeve. Then he approached Mark, Gabe, Kelsey and little Amelia looking calm. He said nothing about Kelsey and Gabe's change in appearance nor Amelia. But Amelia did point at Rexum and say,

"Who's that?"

Kelsey leaned over and whispered in her ear,

"He's Rexum the Magic Wizard!"

Amelia's young face lit up and she smiled and then looked up at Kelsey.

"Really?" she said excitedly.

Rexum paid no attention whatsoever to Amelia and just started talking to everyone else.

"Everyone, we must leave immediately. I have received visions from the Spirits In Between, it is not safe here, we need to leave early. Originally we would leave late tonight and formulate a plan ahead of time, but we must leave now and think as we move." he said calmly.

"But what about the house?" asked Mark, gesturing around at the mansion.

Rexum turned around and walked towards the doors.

"I will attend to the details."

Mark exchanged glances with Gabe and Kelsey, who both shrugged. They followed Rexum outside, and Kelsey hoisted Amelia up onto her back so that she wouldn't have to walk. Once outside Gabe went and got Felix and brought him away from their home as they walked. Rexum stopped around the edge of the moat and stood to face their mansion. Everyone watched as Rexum put away the Eyestone inside his inventory. The old man stood upright and extended two ancient hands towards their mansion. Suddenly, some kind of glittery gold block of energy appeared in front of his hands, and he thrust his hands forward, sending it flying at their mansion. As soon as it touch the wood of the gate everything exploded in a blinding cloud of white particles.

Mark opened his eyes again and saw hundreds upon hundreds of blocks in their item form hovering over the ground in a pile where their mansion used to be. Even the inside of the moat was reduced to many full water buckets. Rexum walked forward calmly and all of the blocks and materials used to build the small mansion were absorbed into his inventory as he walked around the empty space. Then, once Rexum had taken up all of the water buckets in their moat he jumped up out of it and walked in the other direction past Mark and friends, who were all either gawking or just plain staring. Amelia jumped up in excitement and squealed,

"He IS a wizard!"

The five of them walked through the desert underneath Rexum's small force field. They walked on for a few more hours into the mutating nighttime until around midnight when Mark finally broke the silence.

"Um, Rexum? You do know where you're going, right?"

Rexum did not turn around, but did answer with,

"Wouldn't you think it appropriate that I know where we travel? In other words, yes Mark, I know where we are going. The Spirits In Between visited me through my visions, and they have instructed me to travel northwest for exactly one thousand blocks, and there in the jungle that comes sits the Temple Of Day And Night. Once inside we will question the mysterious Mastermind who lives there for directions to the center of Buenomalo. I need not explain much further, and I trust the judgment of the Spirits In Between; our lives are now in Fate's delicate hands."

Mark suppressed the urge to roll his eyes and continued to walk in silence. They walked for a long time into the night, and thankfully they were able to stay protected the whole time. They didn't even stop to rest, they just continued their travel. Amelia had already fallen asleep on Kelsey's back and was breathing quietly; the only noise that pierced the cold silence of the night.

After roughly three hundred or so blocks they reached the jungle. The sun was beginning to rise up from the horizon already, casting a warm glow over the landscape. As soon as sunlight would touch a mutated entity or block it would shimmer with the light and return to normal once again.

It was a very time-consuming walk through the jungle. They had to jump over several dirt and leaf blocks, there were dangling vines always slowing them down, and there were several ledges with the rough landscape that were hard to navigate. Finally, Rexum seemed to grow tired of the way they were moving and blasted the landscape again with that glittery gold block he used before, destroying everything directly in front of them for several hundred blocks. They obtained hundreds upon hundreds of blocks as they went down the new path, and sooner or later Mark figured that Rexum's inventory would fill up.

Once they met the rough landscape again Rexum would repeat his magical whatchamajiggers to clear for them a path. Even moving this quickly it took the rest of the daylight; they had to pause to rest every ten minutes. By the time the sun was dipping below the horizon they still had roughly a hundred blocks to go. Rexum began to climb up the vines on a very large jungle tree, and everyone followed behind. Once they had climbed all the way up they set up camp at the very top of the tree. As Rexum was helping everyone up onto the top leaves he said,

"We will be safest up here. We will sleep underneath the smaller force field for now, as this is only our temporary site. Now, everyone must get enough rest, we have only 101 blocks to go until we reach the Temple of Day And Night."

No one objected to the idea of rest, everyone was pretty tired from all the walking they'd been doing. As night fell Rexum formed another gold protection cube around them and everyone then set up their beds. Mark crawled underneath his covers and sighed with exhaustion. But before he fell asleep his thoughts disturbed him once again.

"Once we find the Mastermind I should ask him if he knows anything on the location of Vanessa and Lucas and Bonbon. I kinda just disappeared on them, and it's been nearly a week since I fell onto this planet of... What's it called again? Buenomalo, I think. Yeah. Man, they had better not be dead or eaten by the mutated life here or something..." he thought to himself.

Once he had made his decision he fell asleep from utter fatigue.

Apparently, thinking about his sister and friend and... Little Creeper thingy... Altered his sleep, because that night he had another dream, and this time it was about them.

Mark was standing in a dark room, and the only light was from a fountain of lava in the very center. He could hear something moving in the dark that lay ahead, and his curiosity overcame him, so he moved towards the noise. Soon it was too dark to see anything, so he placed a torch that was in his hand. As the light flared up he screamed and backed up, for staring angrily at him were three larger-than-life cave spiders, all three of them pitch black with blood-gushing red eyes. Clearly they were mutated, because the blood that oozed from their eyes was eating away at the floor, creating a gap between Mark and the spiders.

But the worst part was that Mark could see Vanessa, Lucas and Bonbon all tied to the stone wall with sticky cobwebs, and there were poisonous fangs pierced through their hands, feet, and chests. Their eyes were gouged out and bites were all over their faces, all of them oozing black gunk. Suddenly, the dead bodies of his friends all turned to look at Mark, and he wanted to scream out for help, but the cold of the room clouded his lungs, and all he could do was keep his mouth in a horrible gape. In his shock he fell backwards, but instead of falling onto stone he found himself being burned away by the black blood oozing from the cave spiders' eyes. While he was in pain and immobilized on the ground, the middle cave spider launched forward towards him with its great fanged mouth open and...

Mark awoke with a start; again he was in a terribly cold sweat. He looked around him at his friends. He sighed in relief when he saw that no one was missing. But then, as he lay his head back on his pillow, he heard a bloodcurdling scream. He bolted upright and jumped out of bed. H peered over the edge of the tree they had taken refuge in and his mouth went dry. Lying on the jungle floor far below was little Amelia, her eyes gouged out, her body twisted and broken, gashes over her face, her body oozing black gunk.

Mark screamed out in shock, waking everyone. One by one they came to the edge and saw the horrid scene below on the jungle floor. They hurtled back down the tree on the vines and quickly ran to Amelia's broken figure. She was, in fact, dead. Giant poison-leaking fangs were stabbed through her hands and feet, pinning her to the ground. Mickey, her silverfish, was shivering in fear inside her little pj pocket. Mark slowly took Mickey out, and Mickey's beady little silverfish eyes stared up at him. Then a voice echoed inside his head.

"Miss Amelia... Dead... Black spiders... Killed... Scary... Help..."

Mark recalled Amelia saying that Mickey could speak to her, and now he was speaking to him. He wasn't sure if he was crazy anymore, so he just answered the silverfish.

"Mickey, we can't help her anymore. She's gone."

They watched in grief as Kelsey bent over Amelia's dead body and sobbed. But suddenly, Kelsey backed up and watched as something glowing rose up from out of her small chest. It was like a small shifting cube of light, and it was colored pink. The mysterious object floated up and then expanded, covering over Amelia's broken figure. It flashed three times with pink light, and then dissipated into the air. Amelia's body was completely gone when the mysterious pink cube faded away. Kelsey cried silently, but then managed to choke out,

"W-what... Just... *Sniff* Happened?"

Gabe spoke solemnly from behind with his head down.

"That was her soul. She indeed was a human who once lived on Earth that was reborn here. The color of a soul depends on the kind of person that it belongs to. Pink souls mean innocent and caring, never judging. Her soul will go to the Aether as long as it is not black, which is the only soul that is twisted and cruel, which do not go anywhere except the depths of The Void, even deeper than we live here on Buenomalo." he explained.

They did not go back into the tree for the rest of the night, but instead stood and mourned over Amelia's death during the remaining dark. All night Rexum was silent, but when the sun began to rise again and everything around them returned to normal he got everyone's attention and said,

"It is clear that my small force field is not enough to protect us. We will have to use the Eyestone as frequently as possible, although I am not sure how long it will be able to protect us."

Despite Amelia's death everyone knew that they still had to find the Temple Of Day And Night, so they continued on, and thankfully for only 101 more blocks. Mickey decided to call Mark his new master and slithered up into his Blockpack for shelter. Mark didn't really care, he was too busy watching Kelsey. She was singing quietly to herself the song "Someday" by Nickelback.

"How the hell'd we wind up like this?

Why weren't we able

To see the signs that we missed

Try and turn the tables?"

They continued on that way, everyone listening to Kelsey's sorrowful music. But then, after the rest of the distance was traveled they finally arrived at the Temple Of Day In Night. Despite any hardships they had endured, it was time to move on; they still had an important journey to survive through.

Noooooooo! Little Amelia? How could she have died? Why?! WHY?! *sniffles*

Anyway... Let's do some more QAA!

To Vanessa: Where are you in Minecraft right now?

Vanessa: I don't know. That Lucas kid and I never sleep, the landscape keeps mutating every night! We can only take naps in the daytime, at night we have to keep running. I wish I had Mark here so I could whap him on the head with "Moby Dick" again.

Ok, guys, I have something important to say. This is the last of my prepared chapters, so chapter posts might not be right away for the future. Also, I know you have all been waiting for this moment, but here it is... I AM NOW ACCEPTING OCS! Here's the information you have to include...

Name:

Gender:

Age:

Personality:

Weapon Of Choice:

Strengths:

Weaknesses:

Please, send in your OCs! I'll wait until AFTER tomorrow to start writing so that I can decide the OC, who will be appearing in the upcoming chapter. Remember that it'll be longer of a wait now that I don't have everything prepared, but I'll have it soon! The winner of the OC will be announced at the beginning of next chapter, just stay tuned!

Alright, but for next time, how will Mark and friends be able to survive through their deep depression after what happened to Amelia? Will they all survive for the rest of the quest? They should be better off now that they have supplies, but what about the strangely mutated landscape that unfolds at nighttime? Find out NEXT chapter in VOiD!

But for now, this is Pastrinator64, and I'll see you later with chapter numbah seven!
