DISCLAIMER TIIIIME!
I don't own My Little Pony (Which belongs to Hasbro), or Minecraft (Which is Mojang's thing), I just combine the two!
~Previously on My Little Minecraft…~
Herobrine just chuckled.
"Remember this day, little players, for it was your last." His cape began to slowly form a twister behind him."From this moment forth, The Night, Will Last, FOREVER! AHAHAHAHAHAHA, AHAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Sky, along with all of Block City, could only stare up in horror at the monster that had been unleashed.
(Back to the Present day!)
Herobrine was laughing like he was insane as the large, purple twister behind him grew larger and much scarier. But mlgHwnT, always quick, stood to attention and pointed an accusing finger at Herobrine.
"Seize him!" He called to a couple of loyal pegasi guards. "Only he knows where Notch is!"
The guards, quick to attention, leapt into the air, and proceeded to charge at Herobrine. But he would have none of it.
"Stand back, you fools!" He shouted, his eyes glowing brightly, as he laughed, his cape struck lightning bolts at the valiant guards, sending them flying back. Realizing he had better things to do then lecture to a couple of weak, scared-out-of-their-blocks Crafters, he let his cape engulf him, being, armor, and all, letting him become a fog that blasted out the doors of the main hall.
Now Bajan, who had been in the iron grip of Deadlox, was able to shake him off, and fly outside to chase the purple mist.
"Come back here, you!" He called, waving his diamond sword. But Herobrine just went on, ignore the Crafters brave calls. In that small time though, Bajan caught his breath, and though about what in the name of Notch just happened. Herobrines maniacal words echoed and bounced around in his mind.
"Night-time… Forever?" He whispered. For once, he felt afraid, unsure of the future, like how his heart was beating as fast as his small wings on his magical Boots with the Fur. He glanced around, hoping to find something, anything that could help him fight that… thing that went flying.
And in this look-around, he spotted Sky and Vengelfe were speeding outside, trying to run back to their library. Bajan remembered the crafter from earlier, the one who he had made all muddy, and give him that… Hairdo. He almost laughed if it wasn't for the direness of the situation he was in. He looked curiously at the Crafter who seemed to be going somewhere.
"Where's he going?" The Canadian questioned.
Back in the Tree Library of Sky, Vengey was a little on the sleepy side.
"We gotta stop Herobrine!" She said, trying to fight the waves of sleepiness that overcame her. But eventually, she gave in, and with her tail curled up, she slept in her bed, gently snoring with small puffs of steam coming out of her nose. Sky gently placed a blanket over her. "You've had a long day, Vengey." He said. "You need to sleep." On his way out, he turned off the lights, and everything was peaceful.
… Almost.
A loud crash was heard, as Sky was throwing aside books, and using his magic to rapidly skim through books like mad. "Elements, Elements, Elements, UGH! How can I stop Herobrine without the Elements of Harmony?!" He turned around to be met by with the finger of a certain Canadian.
"And just what are the Elements of Harmony? And how did you know about Herobrine, huh? Are you a spy?!" Sky could only back up in fear as Bajan was advancing towards him. He was saved from whatever other questions the brunette was going to torrent down on him, when the young flier was abruptly pulled back, glaring in annoyance at Deadlox.
"Settle down, Bajan. He's not a spy." He calmly said, but a twinge of annoyance was obvious in his voice. The others- TrueMU, Ssundee, and Husky- walked inside and marveled at the largeness of the Library Sky called Home. Deadlox looked to Sky, and his voice softened. "But… you sure know what's going on, don't you, Sky?"
With the other 5 facing him, Sky had no choice but to confess what had happened. "I-I read all about the prediction of Herobrine. Some mysterious objects called the Elements of Harmony are the only things that can stop him. But I don't know what they are, where to find them- I don't even know what they do!"
Sky's explanation was broken when Ssundee was looking at a certain book. "Elements of Harmony- A Reference Guide!" Sky charged over there so fast Ssundee went flying. "How did you find it?!" Sky questioned the man.
"~It was under E-EEE!~" Ssundee proclaimed in a sing-song voice, as he skipped back to his friends. Sky, more than a little embarrassed, just went "Oh…" He quickly used his budder magic to pull the book out, and flip to the center.
"There are six Elements of Harmony, but only five are known- Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Honesty, and Loyalty. The sixth is a complete mystery. It is said that the last known location of the five Elements was in the ancient castle of the two Royal Brothers."
Unknown to the Minecrafters inside, Herobrine, in his fog form, was just outside eavesdropping on their little conversation. Hearing this location, he sped off to the castle. He knew the place well. It was before he was banished… But as he sped off, Sky continued to read.
"The castle is located in what is now-" All the members shuddered as they read the location out loud.
"- The Everfree Forest!"
The terrified six players stood outside the edges of the spooky forest, unsure of what to do.
Ssundee, who had more enthusiasm that the other five could handle, cried "Wheeee! Let's go!"
He was abruptly stopped from entering when Sky calmly stated "Not so fast. L-Look, I appreciate the offer, but I'd really rather do this on my own."
"No can do, Budder-cube." Deadlox said, marching a bit ahead. "We aren't letting any friend of ours go into that spooky place." It took almost everything for Sky not to growl. Enough with the friend thing! He needed to do this alone! Why can't they see that?
"We're sticking to you like Carmel on a candy apple!" Deadlox finished, and with Husky, TrueMU, and Bajan, they marched into the forest. "Ooooo!" Ssundee said, almost drooling. "Especially if there's Candy Apples in there!"
Sky looked a little confused at the slightly crazy crafter. "What? Those things are GOOD!" Ssundee merely said, as he happily jogged into the forest. Sky could only sigh as he slowly walked into something he had a very bad feeling about.
"So… None of you have been in here before?" Sky said, trying to spark a conversation with the others to get their minds off of the creepy forest.
"Why, Notch no!" Husky cried, speaking for once in a long time "I mean, just look at it! It's dreadful!"
"And it ain't natural!" Deadlox said, slightly scared at the dense foliage and the dark forest. "Folks say it doesn't work the same way as Block City." Unbeknownst to the players, the mysterious fog Herobrine was in, squeezed and disappeared into the small cracks and crevices on the mountainous path they were walking on. "Wh-What's that supposed to mean?" Sky said, fear weaved deeply in his words.
"~No-obody knoo-oows!~" Bajan said, emerging from the shadows in a spooky voice. Husky, Ssundee, and TruMU looked afraid and huddled together as Bajan continued with his ghost story.
"Wanna know why?" He asked, slowly creeping up on the terrified trio. "Bajan, Quit it!" Deadlox scolded the adventurous teen, but the brunette paid him no mind. "Because every player who's come in, has never… come… OUT!"
At the same moment, the Fog made the mossy cliff crumble apart, and thinking fast, Bajan and TrueMU flew up, safe from falling down.
But not everyone could fly.
Husky, Ssundee, Deadlox, and Sky were falling down the cliff face (and, might I add, screaming like a bunch of girls, with the occasional screech from Sky going 'I'M TOO PRETTY TO DIE!') with zero way to get back up.
"Jason, quick!" Bajan called, addressing the shy boy by his real name to get his head in the game. He plummeted down to help rescue his friends, with spaceman going "Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh!"
Bajan quickly lifted Ssundee high from harm, and TrueMU grabbed Husky by his large tail fin. (much to the Mudkips annoyance) Deadlox was able to save himself by clinging onto a large root, and he looked down to see if Sky was alright.
But Sky kept going down the cliff face, not stopping until his legs dangled over the edge, his hands scrambling for anything to hold onto. The gorge he was over was deep.
Like super deep.
Like 'If-you-fall-it's-Instant-Death' deep.
Deadlox, unable to let his friend die, made his split second choice. "Hold on, I'm coming!" He cried, let himself fall, and reach for Sky's hands. He wasn't strong enough to pull the teen up, and he mentally cursed himself for not bringing his lucky rope. "Deadlox, what do I do?!" Sky questioned, cobblestone blocks falling down the face and landing below. Deadlox, still struggling to help the budder teen, looked up, and immediately told Sky something no person in their right minds would do.
"Let go."
"Are you crazy?!" Sky nearly screamed.
"No I'm not. Let go, and I promise you'll be safe."
"T-That's not true!" Sky shot back, fear dancing wildly in his sunglass-y eyes.
"Now listen here, what I'm telling you is the honest truth." Deadlox reassured the budder teen. "Let go, and you'll be safe." Sky, even though he was deathly afraid, decided to trust the teen's honesty, and, even though his body was screaming at him to reconsider, he let go of the headphone wearing boy's hands.
Aaaaaand this resulted in more screaming like a girl.
"SOMEBODY SAVE ME!" Sky shouted at air, sure he was probably going to die a horrible death, until he landed safely against something. He looked down, and spotted Bajan and Jason carrying the budder teen, who now had a massive smile on his face. He started to fall a little, but quickly recovered with TrueMU apologizing "Oh, I'm sorry, boys, I'm not used to carrying anything more than a bat or two." Sky could only watch, smiling when Deadlox parkoured his way down the maintain side on small outcroppings in the rock. With a flip, he landed safely, along with Sky.
The Fog, though, was rather angry at these players. They thought they could get to the castle easy? Well, he'll show them! The fog sped off far from the gathering of teens, and zoomed straight for a sleeping Manticore. He entered his paw, and the pained beast let out an earth shattering roar.
"-And once Ssundee and Husky were saved, Whoosh!" BajanCanadian retold, zooming through the air above the traveling group. "Me and TrueMU loopedy-looped around and Wham! Caught you right in the nick of time." He finished, landing right next to a very annoyed looking Sky.
"Yes, Bajan, I was there, and I'm very grateful, but we gotta-"
Sky was cut short when a beast stopped the team right in their tracks.
"A Manticore!" Sky shouted in disbelief, as the creature let loose a mighty roar. For those of you who have not seen a Manticore, it's a very frightful thing, with the body of a lion, wings of a dragon, and the barbed tail of a scorpion. It's very big in size, and you should probably run if you do see one in your life.
"We gotta get past it!" Sky said, pointing at the terrifying beast with his eyes narrowing. On the other hand, though, TrueMU looked horrified at the approaching hybrid, which tried to cut Husky to ribbons. He would've succeeded, if the Mudkip hadn't jumped away in time, and sock the beast right in the jaw.
"Take that, you ruffian!" The Mudkip cheered, only for the beast to roar in his face. 'When was the last time you brushed your teeth?' He thought, but he had bigger problems. "My Fin!" He cried, seeing as his once straightened fin was now completely blown back. Seeing the hybrid was willing to do much more than just roar, the Pokémon let out a yelp and ran off.
"Wait…" TrueMU said, trying to calm Husky down as he ran away from the behemoth as it chased him. He had an idea, if only they would listen! The Manticore, though, was stopped in his tracks when he felt extra weight on his mane. He looked up to see a triumphant Deadlox.
"Yee-haw! Git' along, little piggy!" The crafter replied, riding the creature as it tried to buck him off. "W-wait!" TrueMU said, trying to get everyone's attention. He had a plan, but it wouldn't work if they were trying to hurt the hybrid. Soon enough, and with a powerful stop, Deadlox went flying off the creatures shoulders. He looked at the now waiting eagerly Bajan as he went skyward. "All yours, dude."
"I'm on it!" The Canadian replied, saluting first before he went down to face the beast. "Wait!" TrueMU called again, slightly louder than last time. He knew what to do, and they could get past the creature with no violence. Bajan didn't seem to hear him, as he used his 'Betty-ful Dry', making red streaks as he zoomed around the beast. Manticores, though, have very good vision, so he could see Bajan as he circled. He raised his tail in defense, then, like a player up to bat, struck a home run.
"Bajan!" Sky cried, worried for the teen, as he went sprawling out in front of the rest of the team, dirt and mud streaked on his face and checkered jacket. Sky, though, had a very stern look of determination towards the beast. If you mess with one of them, you mess with all of them. The beast seemed to know this, and started to paw the ground like a bull.
The crafters backed up, like a racer would do at the starting line, and sprinted out, charging straight at the angry Manticore (with the exception of Ssundee, who was happily skipping). They were coming up close, when-
"WAA-AAAAIT!" Jason called out, finally managing to stop and slow down both sides (who were now slightly confused.) Jason, smiling slightly approached the beast calmly, as the team looked on in awe. The beast was about to swat away the teen, making the other crafters back up, covering their faces, not wanting to see the gruesome scene they were sure was going to happen. But all they heard was:
"Ssssshhh, it's ok." Jason spoke softly to the enraged beast, and-of all things- started petting and hugging it.
Now Manticores usually would've been even more angry with someone hugging them, but TrueMU was so good with animals, and the fact that he was so calm, the hybrid didn't lift a paw. Realizing the crafter only wanted to help, he held out his paw for all to see, showing a large, purple thorn embedded deeply in his paw. "Oh, you poor, poor little baby!" Jason cooed softly.
"Little?" Bajan questioned, seeing that the beast was not little whatsoever.
"Now, this might hurt just a little bit…" The spaceman continued, and proceeded to pull the gargantuan thorn out, which made the beast swiftly pick him up and roar in his face.
"TrueMU!" All the members screamed in fear.
But the beast didn't hurt him at all. Matter of fact, he started purring and gently licking Jason's now exposed hair (as his helmet fell off in the first lick.) "Aww, you're just a big, little baby, aren't you? Yes, you are…" the spaceman said, as the team, happy he wasn't hurt, quickly walked past the Manticore while he was licking Jason. Sky though, was curious, and stayed behind before the Manticore put him down and walked off.
"How did you know about the thorn?" Sky asked, noting Jason's now on end hairstyle.
"I didn't." TrueMU said as he walked to rejoin the group, his helmet tucked underneath his arm. "Sometimes, we all just need to be shown a little kindness." Sky looked at him, and softly smiled as he took in the spaceman's wise words.
Meanwhile, the same thorn spun rapidly, showing the smog that made it. These Crafters were more pesky then he imagined. He needed to scare them away from the Elements, and soon…
Mudkip shivered. Out of fear or the cold, he wasn't sure. "My eyes need a rest from all this icky mud." He stated, as the crafters were walking. The dense foliage became even thicker, blocking out the moon, the only light source the team had. "…Well, I didn't mean that literally…"
"You hate mud-" Bajan stated, confused. "Yet your name is Mud-kip."
"Oh, it's always in the name, huh?" The Pokémon snapped back.
"That Castle-" Sky said, out of explanation and trying to break up the fight between the two. "-Could be right in front of our noses, and we wouldn't see it!" Unbeknownst to the players, the mysterious fog seeped its way into the bark of the rotten tree's surrounding the team, as the six members were muttering something together.
"-I think I stepped in something." Deadlox finished, looking at the bottom of his shoes, covered in a brown sludge. TrueMU, for some reason, screamed in fear.
"It's just mud! Geez-" Deadlox said, backing up into a tree, until he saw what the animal lover was afraid of. A hideous, giant face was on the tree bark, making the headphone wearing teen let out a yelp and back up. The effect quickly spread, and the team found themselves surrounded by scary faces. The team screamed in horror and fright, thinking that it was the end.
"JASON, I'M STARTLED!" Sky screamed, leaping onto the back of the terrified spaceman. They were just about to run out of the forest, when they heard a strange sound-
Laughter.
Ssundee was making faces at the tree's and laughing in their face.
"Ssundee, what are you doing?! Run!" Sky advised, wishing the Crafter would get away. "Come on guys, don't you see?" Ssundee said, starting to bounce a little, as a string instrument played in the background.
Ssundee: When I was a little noob and the sun was going do-own!
"Tell me he's not-" Sky said, trying to stop the singing before Ssundee could continue.
Ssundee: The darkness and the shadows,
they would always make me fro-own!
"… He is." Husky replied, as Ssundee leaped around the area.
Ssundee: I'd hide under my pillow, at what I thought I saw,
But my parents said that wasn't the way to deal with fears at all!
"Then what is?" Bajan questioned the crafter.
Ssundee: They said 'Ssundee, you gotta stand up tall,
Learn to face your fears, you'll see they can't hurt you,
Just laugh and make them disappear!'
"Ha, ha, ha!" Ssundee said, and in a poof of colorful smoke, the mean face disappeared. The rest of the crafters stared in shock at what happened, and soon, they were starting to laugh at the monsters, too.
Ssundee: Sooooo!
Giggle at the ghostly! Guffaw at the grossly!
Crack up at the creepy! Whoop it up with the weepy!
Chortle at the kooky! Snortle at the spooky!
And tell that big dumb scary face to take a hike and leave you alone,
And if he thinks he can scare you then he's got another thing coming and the very idea of such a thing just makes you wanna Hahahaha Hahaha! Heh…
By now, Ssundee was almost in tears at laughing so much, but he continued, and as he sang, all the faces left disappeared
Ssundee: Laaaaaaauuuuugh!
Soon, all the Crafters where lying on the ground of the forest, laughing their heart out together. As they did, Sky had second thoughts. Maybe they were right, he would never be able to get this far if it wasn't for them. Maybe… It was a good idea to have friends.
The merry band of crafters were in high spirits, and they giggled occasionally, still having fun. Ssundee, who was in the lead, stopped suddenly (and causing a major traffic jam in the back) and looked at a raging river that stood in front of them. "How are we gonna cross this?"
The team was interrupted in their thinking when they heard an odd sound, like crying. As they peeked through the bushes, they saw a giant Sea Dragon, thrashing in the river and crying dramatically. "What a world!" He kept saying "What a world!"
Now someone usually would've run away screaming at the sight of a giant sea green and deep blue hued dragon the size of a tall building. He had a large portion of Electric blue hair, which complemented his shiny green scales, getting everything wet with his thrashing.
Then again, the team faced a Manticore (Well, Jason did, if anything.) and they felt unafraid of anything.
"Excuse me, sir." Sky said, stepping forwards. "Why are you crying?"
"Well, I don't know." The Dragon said, using his hands to narrate. "I was just sitting here, minding my own business, when this little bit of blue smoke just whisked past, and tore half of my finely chiseled chin, clean off!" Sure enough, one of the blue scales that made up his chin were cut right off, leaving a space in his scales where it used to be. "And now, I look simply horrid!" He went into another crying fit, churning up a massive wave that soaked all the crafters. (Sky was thoroughly upset, for this was the second time he got splashed today… or was it yesterday? It was hard to tell with the moon always up.)
"Oh, Gimme a break!" Bajan stated, clearly annoyed that his favorite jacket was now completely drenched. "That's what all the fuss is about?" Deadlox said, also annoyed. His hair part was sopping wet and covered his face, except his mouth, making him look like a dog.
"Why, of course it is!" Husky said, not looking so bad since the Pokémon was a water type, marched up to the dragon "How can you be so insensitive? Oh, just look at him!" He started stroking the Serpents massive snout. "Such lovely luminescence scales!"
The serpent sniffed and replied "I know!"
"And just look at your expertly quaffed hair!"
The serpent immediately perked at this compliment, and ran a hand through his hair "Ooohhh, I know, I know!"
"Such a fabulous manicure!"
The serpent gasped in delight "It's so true!
"All ruined without your beautiful chin." Mudkip said, sadness weaved in his words. "It's true, I'm Hideous!"
"I simply cannot let such a crime against fabulousity go uncorrected!" Husky said, narrowing his eyes and determination was obvious in his voice. Acting fast, he picked a scale off of the dragons body, which made him yelp in pain. "Ow! What did you do that for?!" Holding the scale up high like a sword, Husky did something he wouldn't dream of doing.
"Husky," Sky said, with the rest of the team curious at what the Pokémon was about to do. "What are you-"
The sound of cutting was heard for miles, and the dragon promptly fainted.
Husky dropped the scale, and with his aqua magic, lifted up his prized fin and shifted it into place on the dragons chin, making him stand up straight and tall, giggling like he was a school girl.
"Oooo! My Chin! How wonderful!" Husky smiled at the fact the Serpent was happy. "You look smashing!"
"Oh my gosh, Husky, your handsome fin!" Husky realized he looked much different, but seemed happy about it. "Oh, it's alright, Sky. Short fins are in this season! And besides, It'll grow back." Sky could only smile at the Pokémon's enthusiasm.
"So would the Chin-beard-thingy!" Bajan just rolled his eyes and muttered to Sky. Sky looked around, and saw that the river was calming down.
"Hey, the river!" Sky said, wading slowly into the calm, blue water. "We can cross now- WOAH!" He was interrupted when a large green mountain appeared, but calmed down realizing it was the dragon. "Allow me!" He stated, and created enough small mounds for everyone to get across the river by parkour. Sky though, hung around for a while. Husky was willing to give up his fin for someone he rarely even knew. Sky was touched by his act, and continued to think about it as the members journeyed on.
As the rugged band of six went on, Sky looked ahead at the parted fog. "Over there! The ruins that hold the Elements of Harmony. We made it!" Just up ahead, there seemed to be ruins of an old castle, obviously abandoned for a long time because all the cobble was overgrown with moss and vines. Sky, in all the excitement, rushed ahead.
"Sky!" Deadlox called, also excited. "Wait for us!" As the other five raced behind him. "We're almost there- Whaa!" He called to the others, only to nearly drop off the edge of a cliff. He expected the bridge to be in perfect condition too? No! Sky mentally cursed himself for not thinking and letting his emotions almost do him in. He was saved, luckily, by Bajan, who pulled him back to safety. "What's with you and falling off cliffs today?" The Canadian smirked playfully.
"Now what?" Ssundee sighed. "Duh!" Bajan said, shaking his boots a little to get them active. "Oh, yeah!" Ssundee said, still happy after this whole ordeal and what they've been through. The brunette Canadian flew over to the other side, picking up the other side of the nearly collapsed bridge, and was about to tie it to a tall, sturdy stone, when he heard a voice.
"~Baa-jaaan~" The voice said. It sounded feminine to the Canadian, but he was wary of any traps. "W-Who's there?" Bajan questioned, unaware of the three smog sprites that passed quickly beneath him. "~Baa-jaaan~" The voice said again. Bajan quickly pulled out his diamond sword, and began waving it around with expert skill. "I'm not afraid of you! Show yourself!" The voice, unfazed, continued.
"We've been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the best flier in all of Minecraftia."
"Who?" Bajan confusingly said, lowering his swords a little. "Why, you, of course!" The voice replied. Bajan felt his heart pump faster, and his eyes glittered with excitement. "Really?! Well, I mean, Oh yeah! Me! Oh, uh, you wouldn't mind telling the Yogsacast that, would'ja? Because I've been trying to get in that group forever!"
"No, Bajan." The voice purred. "We want you to join us-" Immediately, three figures emerged from the dense fog. "-The Shadowcast!" All the three figures, two males and a female, wore and purple jumpsuits with lightning bolt patterns, separating the main purple body from the black arms and legs, with special combat boots with large, black wings. Each with blue hair and yellow goggles, the female spoke again. (Since Bajan assumed she was the leader)
"We're the greatest aerial team in the Everfree Forest. And soon, we will be the greatest in all Mincraftia." She stepped towards Bajan, twirling her fingers around Bajans dog tag. "But first, we need a Captain." She proceeded to circle him slowly. He smiled liking where the conversation was going. "The most magnificent-",
"Yes."
"-Swiftest!-"
"Yup!"
"-Most Bravest flier in all Minecraftia." Bajan couldn't help but let a small bit of pride touch his gut. "Yes, yes, It's all true!"
"We need-" She paused dramatically, before whispering in the Canadians ear. "-you."
"YES!" Bajan was so happy, he skyrocketed a good few feet in the air. "Sign me Up! Just let me tie this rope for my friends, and we got a deal." He said, flying over to the rope, and was going to tie it, until the female swiftly flew over and went up in his face. "NO! It's them or us!"
Bajan, stood back, afraid, unable to make his choice: Either take this dream and leave his friends, or be able to carry on, and let his one shot at stardom get away?
"Bajan!" Sky called, reminding the brunette of his friends. "What's taking so long?" He gasped and looked at his friends' situation. "Oh no. Bajan!" The female, not wanting any interference with Bajans' choice, since she seemed to be winning him over, made her goggles glow, and make the fog dense and clouded. "Don't listen to them!" Was all Sky could say before the fog muffled his advice. Bajan pondered, trying to decide.
"Well?" Said the female. Bajan, probably going to regret his decision, made his choice: "You." The female smiled with glee, being able to win him over "Thank you, for the offer, I mean." The other three could only gape in shock as Bajan tied the rope around the rock, then fly up. "But… I'm afraid I have to say no." While he flew through the fog, the female grimaced, and the three beings turned into Shadow Sprites, and they flew back to report to Herobrine.
Bajan flew back to Sky and his friends, congratulating him as they crossed the now secure bridge. "Good work, Bajan!" Sky said, impressed he'd give up his dream to help his friends. "You see? I'd never leave my friends hanging." He went ahead, shouting "Power Moves Only!" as Sky could only smile at his enthusiasm.
The group, now inside, marveled at the once great castle. It's pillars were crumbled, but they were intricately detailed all the same. The windows, now shattered, were once tall and could almost touch the sky. The roof, now totally gone, could've been the place for hundreds of lights to hang. The floor was mossy with grass, but a large sort of rune took up the space. In the middle of the rune, was a pedestal, each spoke holding a stone ball with symbols.
"Whoa." Deadlox breathed in. "Come on Sky, isn't this what you've been waiting for?"
"The Elements of Harmony." Sky proudly stated. "We found them!" Bajan and TrueMU flew up and grabbed a stone at a time, then flying back down. "Careful, Careful!" Sky alerted, and the two Crafters placed the last of the five rocks down. "One, two, three, four, five… There's only five." Ssundee counted, confusingly looking at Sky.
"Where's the sixth?" Bajan questioned.
"The book said-" Sky assured, kneeling to get a closer look at the prize he'd been pursuing tirelessly. "-When the five are present, a spark will cause the sixth element to be revealed."
"What the heck is that supposed to mean?" Deadlox questioned the budder teen. "I'm not sure, but I have an idea. Stand back, I don't know what will happen." Sky commanded, as he used his buddery magic to spark and glimmer. Deadlox, being second-in-charge (Sky didn't exactly do that, but he just sort of took the position for the teen), stepped away and beckoned to the doors. "Come on, you guys. He needs to concentrate." The five left Sky to work his magic (Quite literally), and none took notice of the mysterious blue smog that wormed it's way to Sky.
Spinning faster and faster, it picked up the five stones, spinning faster and faster until it was a tornado of blue smoke. Sky, having his eyes closed this whole time, screamed in fear at the twister. "The Elements!"
"SKY!" The others called, rushing back inside as fast as they could. They only saw Sky leaping into the giant tornado, and with a white flash, was gone. In a frame on ten seconds, panic settled over the group, with rapid questions: "Where did he go?" What was that flash?!" "Sky-yy!"
Deadlox always sort of knew this would happen. That didn't calm him down though. But unlike the others (Who were screaming in panic), he was quick to take action. "Sky!" He called, trying to find him "Where are you?!"
"Look!" Husky pointed outside at an opposite, equally downgraded building, with white light streaming from the windows. "Come on!" Deadlox called, leading the others to doors that lead to a passageway.
Sky, though, wasn't faring so well. In a flash, he landed with a thud on the ground, buddery smoke blocking his vision. He coughed for a minute, then looked up in horror. Herobrine, on a pedestal higher than Sky, was grinning with laughter. His cape, slowly spinning around, showcased the Elements of Harmony, now in his possession. Thunder boomed and lightning seemed to bend and twist around him. Sky, with a sense of pride, got up quickly, got into a running pose, and used his magic to make his hand a fist, covered in buddery flames.
"You're kidding." Herobrine said, sarcasm dripping in his thunderous voice. "You're kidding, right?"
Sky wasn't kidding in the slightest, charging towards Herobrine, making his arm covered in flames now, too. Herobrine, not letting anything interfere with his plans, charged at the Crafter, leaving the Elements on the same pedestal. Sky smirked as his plan succeeded, letting the buddery flame engulf him, and in a flash, he vanished, leaving a momentarily confused Herobrine.
Sky reappeared at the same pedestal Herobrine was just on. His head hurt like crazy, using so much magic in such a small time, but he had bigger problems. "Just one spark! Come on, Come on!" Using both fists, he was able to make the balls spark and glitter, with the occasional spark of current that ran between them. Herobrine, outraged that he had been tricked, summoned his tornado attack again, and zoomed over to Sky, rematerializing in the center of the circle.
Sky, unable to control the flow of magic, was knocked back to the ground. Herobrine seemed to realize what the teen was doing, and realized that doom was inevitable. "No! NO!" Sky smirked, thinking he had finally defeated Herobrine. The current went on a little longer, and-
Nothing happened.
The magic and sparks fizzled out completely, leaving Herobrine standing in the middle of five stones. Sky was in complete shock, and Herobrine was recovering quick.
"But- But where's the sixth Element?!" Sky questioned. Herobrine laughed evilly, then, with a massive Stomp, shattered the crystals apart, leaving Sky to fall to his knees as the crystal shards were heard for miles.
"You little fool." Herobrine spat out the words like they were poison. "Thinking you could defeat me?!" His cape started spinning around higher and higher in the sky, forming a massive twister. "Now, you will never see your precious King, or your sun. The Night, will last FOREVER! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
'It's over…' Sky thought in defeat. 'Herobrine won. I didn't. The night will be eternal, and I'll never see Notch again.' But, with an odd feeling, he turned around when he heard the voices of five certain crafters, their Shadows illuminated on the stairwell. "Hold on Sky! We'll be there!"
When he heard that phrase, Sky's heart nearly stopped. Time seemed to slow down completely, and sound became muted. He gasped, and in his eyes, he felt… a spark. He didn't know what it was or where it came from, but it was a spark in his stomach that was waiting to be ignited.
"You think you can destroy the Elements of Harmony just like that? Well, you're wrong!" Sky challenged the Nether King, fear flashing on his face for a brief second, before he scowled again. "Because the Spirits of the Elements of Harmony, are right- HERE!" He cried, gesturing to all his friends. Even as he did so, multicolored magic was making the crystals vibrate and lift up.
"W- What?!" Herobrine looked at the floating crystals, confused.
"Deadlox, who reassured me when I was in doubt, represents the Spirit of- Honesty!" Green colored Crystals started circling and floating around the boy, who was looking slightly embarrassed.
"TrueMU, who tamed the Manticore with his compassion, represents the Spirit of- Kindness!" Orange colored Crystals circled around the spaceman, who was fearful, but soon was back to normal.
"Ssundee, who banished fear by giggling in the face of danger, represents the Spirit of- Laughter!" Grey colored Crystals circled the man, who jumped in glee and looked ready to take on anything.
"HuskyMudkipz, who calmed a sorrowful serpent with a meaningful gift, represents the Spirit of- Generosity!" Aqua Crystals danced around the Pokémon, who's smile would've blown Vengelfe away.
"And BajanCanadian, who couldn't not abandon his friends for his own hearts' desires, represents the Spirit of- Loyalty!" Red Crystals spun in circles around the Brunette, making him look prideful. "The spirits of these five players got us through every challenge you threw at us!" Sky said, growing in more and more confidence.
"You still don't have the sixth Element!" Herobrine responded, fear slightly edged in his words. "The spark didn't work!"
"It did," Sky shot back. "A different kind of spark!" The budder teen looked at the five players who he had dragged into this. "I felt it the very moment I realized how happy I was to hear you, to see you, how much I cared about you. The spark ignited inside me when I realized that you all-" He turned around, determined to face Herobrine.
"-Are my FRIENDS!"
In the very moment he said that, a flash emerged from above sky. A new rock, carved with a six pointed star, descended slowly on the group, making them seem brighter. Even Herobrine had to cover his eyes with his cape. "You see, Herobrine, when those Elements are Ignited by the… The spark! Inside of us all, it creates the sixth element."
"The Element of- MAGIC!"
A white flash was seen, and the crystal surrounding the players, soon transformed into shiny, golden necklaces. The rock above sky, soon turned into a golden crown, with a buddery, six pointed star.
Light seemed to be projected everywhere, and when the six were clustered together, a double helix rainbow spiraled upwards, then came crashing down on Herobrine. "No, NO!" He cried, as the rainbow formed a tornado, enclosing him.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" He cried, thrashing around, but his effort was futile, as the light between the sixth grew brighter, Sky's eyes became a solid budder color, and the whole world went white.
The Main Six were sprawled out on the hard, stone floor, unconscious. That blast had drained a lot of their energy, but they were soon waking up. "Oww…" BajanCanadian said, rubbing his temple. "My head…"
"Is… Is everybody Ok?" Deadlox asked, but was soon interrupted by Husky.
"OH, THANK GOODNESS!" He looked up, and saw his fin, now completely restored. "Oh, wow, Husky." TrueMU commented. "It looks awesome."
"I know!" Husky cried. "I'll never part with it again!" He started stroking his fin back, but TrueMU shook his head. "No, Your necklace." He said, pointing the gold object out. It was carved very well, and an aqua gem shaped like a diamond was in the middle. "It looks just like your pin."
"Hmm?" Husky said, noticing it and the pin, with their matching similarities, and he smiled and said "So does yours!" TrueMU gasped in delight, seeing an orange butterfly gem in the center of his. The others took notice of their gems, Ssundee bouncing up and down in excitement, seeing a light grey balloon on his, "Look at mine, look at mine!" Deadlox like it, and he loved his green apple on his necklace.
"Oh, heck yeah!" Bajan said, happy that his red Thunderbolt matched his personality. (A/N: Huh. Both Rainbow Dash's and Mitch's gem are the same.) Sky was admiring the buddery six pointed star on his golden, detailed crown. "Gee, Sky." Deadlox said, walking up and tracing his necklace. "I thought you were just spouting out random stuff… But, I guess we really do represent the Elements of Friendship."
"Indeed you do." A voice said, but unlike Herobrine, who's voice was bitter, this one sounded kind and gentle. A light was seen outside, and, for the first time in forever (I DON'T WANT ANY FROZEN COMMENTS!), The sun was rising. A ball of light was being drifted inside, and in a flash of light, lo and behold, there stood Notch, the King of Minecraft, with his large, white wings, Golden Crown embedded with Emeralds, and the golden chest plate he wore, with a large Emerald inside it. It covered most of his brown shirt and white pants, and his black beard looked better, even in the sunlight. While the other members bowed before the god of Minecraftia, Sky jumped up and gasped in delight. "King Notch!" He ran to his mentor and they hugged each other. "SkyDoesMinecraft, my faithful student. I knew you could do it."
"But, you told me it was all an old Minecraftia tale?" Sky said, confused.
"I told you to make some friends." The King told the teen with a warm smile on his face. "Nothing more. I saw the signs of Herobrines return, and I knew it was you who had the magic inside to defeat him." The other members were slowly standing up, and Sky beamed, happy that he made his mentor happy. "But you could not unleash it until you let true friendship into your heart." The six teens looked at each other, and smiled, knowing that all of them were going to be great friends. But Notch turned and looked at a figure. "Now if only another will as well- Prince AntVenom." The teens saw and looked at the figure Notch was addressing.
He was surrounded by the shattered parts of armor that Herobrine wore, and he looked quite a bit younger then Sky. The young boy had raven black hair, pale skin, and a black outfit, with an ebony black chest plate. His budder amulet glowed in the sun's light, and in its purple center, a silver crescent moon came into light. His crown was a dark, navy blue with a single diamond embedded into the center. His blood red cape covered his back like a blanket, and he was struggling to get up. His hands were shaky, and his emerald eyes shrunk in fear of seeing Notch.
"It has been a thousand years since I've last seen you like this." The King knelt before the scared boy, trying to talk to him. "It's time we put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, little brother."
"BROTHER?!" The teens gasped.
"Will you accept my friendship?" The wise god asked, offering a hand as he stood up. All the teens were on edge, hoping that Ant would accept (except for Ssundee, who fell because he was leaning forwards too much). The boy sniffled, then lunged Notch in a hug. "I'm so sorry!" He gasped between sobs. "I missed you so much, big brother!" Even Notch was on the edge of tears. "I missed you, too."
Poor Ssundee was bawling his eyes out, but in an instant, he recovered. "Hey, do you know what this calls for? A PARTY!"
Confetti was everywhere, and people were rejoicing that Notch was back safely, and that Prince AntVenom was back. The streets were filled with people talking and dancing, and Vengey came out to hug Sky for his efforts. When Notch's Carriage touched the ground (being pulled by Pegasi guards), all subjects immediately bowed down. When Ant walked out beside him, he thought for sure the people would reject him again.
But they didn't. They cheered and welcomed him even more, and two very young children wrapped a flower necklace around him. Surprised by such an act of kindness, that he almost shed tears. He was so glad just to be back with his brother, and the fact that the crowd loved him again was ecstasy.
The only Crafter who wasn't celebrating was Sky, who looked even more depressed then the first time he came here. "Why so glum, my faithful student?" Notch gently asked the Budder teen. "Are you not happy that your quest is complete, and that you can return to your studies in Camelot?"
"That's just it." Sky softly replied, looking at his teacher and gesturing to his friends, who had an air of unhappiness around them, realizing Sky had to leave. "Just when I learn how wonderful it is to have friends, I have to leave them…" Notch, realizing the tenderness of the situation, found that the problem could be easily solved with his authority.
"Vengelfe, take a note please." The great King asked the dragon hybrid. Vengelfe quickly got out a scroll and a quill, and quickly began scribbling down what the King said. "I, King Notch, herby decree that the student, SkyDoesMinecraft, shall take on a new mission for Minecraftia: He must continue to study the magic of friendship, he must report to me his findings, from his new home, in Block City!" Sky immediately perked up, and all his friends ran up to the teen and hugged him like there was no tomorrow, cheering for their new friend.
"Oh, thank you, King Notch! I'll study harder than ever before!" Another wave of cheering ripped through the crowd, and the air of enjoyment and the sound of laughter could be heard even outside of Block City.
And, with this, the beginning of a great adventure has just begun, and Sky still has many things to learn from his studies. His quest is far from over, though, as he'll face new enemies, and new friends, but he, Deadlox, BajanCanadian, TrueMU, HuskyMudkipz, and Ssundee are-
"Isn't this exciting?!" Ssundee said, bursting into view. "Are you excited, cuz I'm excited, I've never been so excited! Well, except for the time when I saw you walk into town and I went *Gasp*, but really, who can top that?!"
Uh, let's wrap this up, quick!
And this concludes the first two episodes of the series! The next episode is "The Ticket Master", so keep that in mind!
And D'AAAWWWWWWW! Don't you love young Ant? (If you're wondering where his facial features are, don't worry! They grow on him in "Venom Eclipsed".) HE'S SO CUTE! (Sorry, I'm fangirling a little.)
