Chapter 6: The Journey Starts
-Hint: KxF, your MC user is going to appear in this chapter. So, read on!
(The next day arrives in Minecraftia. Back at Setosorcerer's place, everyone is seen putting on enchanted diamond armor. Though Sky would prefer butter armor, diamond armor will have to do. Meanwhile, Seto is creating multiple types of swords, from iron to diamond. He even creates a couple of bows just in case. After everyone is suited up and armed, they walk out the front door and have one last talk with Seto).
-Seto: Good luck, travelers. May Notch light your way through the harsh wildernesses of Minecraftia.
-Sky: Thanks for everything, Seto. Take care of yourself.
-Seto: I indeed will.
(Soon, the journey to Notch's weapon begins. Sky and the others set off towards the jungle that is approximately 2 miles away from GeoCity's outskirts. They trudge through the plains that is between the jungle and the city. Once they reach the jungle, they know that there's no going back now. As everyone is walking through the jungle, ocelots are seen on the trees and dash away from the strangers. Soon, the travelers reach a clearing in the jungle. Sky gazes over and sees a mob that he dreaded to bump into; the creeper. The green mob crawls out of the depths of the jungle and starts heading right towards them. Then, more creepers appear in every nook and cranny of the jungle and head towards Sky and his friends).
-Sky: Oh shit! We're fucked. There's no way our swords will last long with this many creepers.
(Just as the travelers are waiting for their gruel fate, out of nowhere, an arrow strikes one of the creepers in the head, killing it instantly. The other creepers gaze in the right direction. Standing on the top of a short tree is another Minecrafter. The being is dressed in a black and royal blue ninja suit, fingerless black gloves, black spiked boots, and long, glowing blond hair done in a ponytail. Her eyes are a shining icy-blue and wielded in one of her hands is a bow. She leaps off the tree and lands perfectly on her feet. Then, the creepers turns and run after her. Quickly, she wields her bow at them and starts shooting arrows like bullets. Some creepers died immediately while some take longer before finally disappearing into nothingness. Soon, the last of the creepers are killed. The being lowers her bow and breathes a sigh of relief. The others, meanwhile, look in amazement of the archer's quick reflexes. Sky slowly approaches her as she turns around).
-Sky: That was awesome! You took down those creepers like flies...who are you?
-Minecrafter: My name is Kitty. I'm an escapee from BajanCanadian's prison. You all are lucky that I happen to stumble to this jungle. What are you all doing out here?
-HuskyMudkipz: We're on a mission to get Notch's weapon to fend off Deadlox.
-Kitty: Notch's weapon!? No one has ever returned alive from trying to find the legendary item. Do you all have any idea what you're up against? There's Zombies, Spiders, Cave Spiders. Heck, there's even Wither Skeletons that are a few feet taller than you are.
-Sky: We're after the weapon because Deadlox wants to kill me. He's suited up with armor that impenetrable, no matter if the weapon you're using is diamond or enchanted. Notch's weapon is the only thing strong enough to stop him. Nothing will stop me from getting to it.
-Kitty: Hm...Determination. I like that in a Minecrafter. All right, I shall assist you on your journey. The desert biome that you seek is only one hundred blocks away. But we must hurry, for night is fast-approaching. Follow me.
(Kitty starts walking and Sky and the others follow her lead. Hundred blocks later, the entire group reach the desert. Beyond them, the blocky sun is seen, slowly descending in the horizon. Everyone knows they have no time to lose. They all start running to the center of the desert, wary of any cacti or other mobs. As they are running, Sky squints behind his sunglasses and in the distance, two pillars are seen. Sky runs beyond the group and stops right in-between the two foreign objects. Kitty analyzes both of the objects).
-Kitty: Okay, all we need to do is find the switches. I believe that there are four levers in total, hidden somewhere close to the pillars. Everyone, search the trenches around here.
(Everyone spreads in different directions, searching for any trenches. Jerome jumps into one and looks around for a bit until he sees a chest. He looks inside it and finds one of the levers. He quickly crawls out of the ditch with the lever in hand).
-Jerome: Hey guys, I found one!
-Ssundee: (in the distance) So did I!
-Kitty: Great! Keep searching. We only need two more!
(Everyone returns to searching as Ssundee and Jerome attach the levers to the top portions of the left pillar. Meanwhile, Sky jumps into a trench and looks around until he stumbles upon a large chest. He opens it and finds the other two levers. Sky pops his head out of the trench).
-Sky: I found the last two!
-HuskyMudkipz: Hey! I also found one lever.
-Sky: Husky, that's not a lever.
(Husky looks to his left and see that he's grasping an ocelot by its tail. The feline growls and attacks HuskyMudkipz. He yells out and rolls around in the sand as the cat claws his face).
-HuskyMudkipz: OW! SOMEBODY HELP! IT'S DIGGING ITS CLAWS INTO MY DELICATE SKIN!
(Sky quickly climbs out of the trench, finds a nearby stick, and runs over to hit the cat off his friend. However, the cat leaps off his face and instead, Sky ends up pounding the stick over the Pokemon's head. Without opening his eyes, Sky continues to hit Husky in the face).
-Sky: (screaming) Don't worry, Husky! I'll get the kitty out of your face. I'll attack until it goes away!
-HuskyMudkipz: Sky! The only thing attacking me is you!
(Sky stops and opens his eyes. Husky is covered in scratches and bruises).
-Sky: Oops...sorry, dude.
-HuskyMudkipz: (sarcastically) It's okay. By the way, can I see that stick for a quick second?
-Sky: Oh, sure.
(Sky hands the stick over to the Minecrafter. He gets to his feet, then hits Sky over the head with it. Sky grasps his head in pain).
-Sky: (groaning) Okay...I probably deserve that. Let's get this thing over with.
(Sky walks over to the right pillar and places the switches in. He turns all the levers upward. Suddenly, a rumbling shakes the entire desert. Everyone backs away from the pillars. Behind the pillars, the sand starts to move away as a block appears. Then, the rest of what's beneath it is revealed. Everyone looks in awe as a large pyramid-shaped temple is exposed to them. Then, a temple door ascends and reveals a hallway, filled with torches).
-Kitty: I can't believe it! This is it! We found the place of Notch's weapon.
-Dawn: Oh, thank Notch. Looks like you're going to live after all, Sky.
-Sky: I'm glad. No one can stop us now.
(Sky enters through the doorway, along with everyone else. However, unbeknown to them, a few hundred blocks away, Deadlox and the other prison guards, TrueMU and BajanCanadian are seen standing at the top of a hill).
-Deadlox: (laughs evilly) Well, looks like the butter god is after Notch's weapon.
-TrueMU: Good thing we tortured that Seto guy enough to make him tell us where Sky and his friends are.
-BajanCanadian: I saw one of my prisoners enter that temple with them. As soon as Sky is dead, I'm taking her back with me.
-TrueMU: Whatever, Bajan. Even if Sky and the others get past the mobs, they have no chance against the Wither.
-BajanCanadian: But what if they manage to kill it?
-Deadlox: Then, there's one thing for sure. We're going to be the ones to stop all of them and kill Sky. Come on, let's do this.
(Deadlox walks off the hill and starts making his way towards the temple. TrueMU and BajanCanadian follow him. As they are, on the left side of Deadlox's arm, hidden with his armor, a device glows a red button faintly. And on the side of the strange device, the words 'Made by the Squid Army' is written on it).
