Everyone came into the weapons room and they saw many swords, axes, bows, TNT, and armor. "Wow, look at this stuff!" Tyler said aloud.
"It is up to each of you to choose a weapon to use at your disposal." Rae said.
"So the choice is yours." Alesa said.
"Dibs on the diamond sword!" Shelby said running to grab it.
Max tackled her before she got to it. "I want that sword." He said.
"Max don't torture the unfortunate." Ross said while debating between an axe and a bow.
"Shelby isn't unfortunate." Jess said while getting an iron set.
"Considering my life right now. Yes, yes I am." She responded after pushing Max off of her. Max groaned as he got the diamond sword.
Sky picked up an enchanted gold sword. "Wow this is cool. An enchanted budder sword."
"It's not budder." Tyler exclaimed while picking up a diamond set.
"Guys, I gots the archer stuff." Barney said picking an enchanted bow.
"That bow is enchanted with power and infinity." Rae pointed out.
"All the bows have infinity." Alesa informed them.
"I want this bow." Red said picking up another enchanted bow.
"That one is enchanted with infinity and punch." Alesa stated.
In about an hour everyone has chosen what they wanted. Jess, Shelby and Ross had an iron armor set and an iron sword. Tyler and Max had diamond gear and a diamond sword. Red and Barney had iron armor and enchanted bows. Sky had gold armor and a gold sword. "Splendid!" Rae said. "Are you all ready for your journey?" Rae asked.
"Yep." Tyler said. "I'm hoping I won't get hurt as much with this on."
"We're ready to kick some squid butt." Sky shouted holding his sword up in the air.
Everyone went out of the castle as Rae and Alesa lead them to a woods outside of town. "This is as far as we can take you."
"Have a safe journey." Alesa told them.
"Awesome." Ty said when he saw them. "Good luck on your quest."
"No worries, we'll be fine." Tyler said.
"But thanks." Sky said. They (jess, tyler, shelby, max, ross, red, barney, and sky) set off on their journey and came to a dark end of the forest.
"Wow this place is pretty... dark." Shelby nervously said shaking.
"Dark is one thing. We should be worried about what monsters we have to fight soon." Jess said.
"That's true, it's almost nighttime." Barney stated looking at the sky.
"We can handle them." Red said. Suddenly some zombies came from behind them and they all got into a battle stance.
"Uh oh." Ross said. "Red jinxed it."
Red and Barney were going to shoot the zombies until some other arrows already took them down. Then some skeletons that were going to shoot from the trees were stabbed by a shadowy figure.
"What just happened?" Max asked while confused.
"Whoops, sorry. Kinda thought you guys couldn't take them." Said someone that was on a tree. The person jumped down and turned out to be a girl. She had a green outfit and a hood. She also had red hair and dark green shoes. "Name's Elfia (me)." She spoke.
"And I helped too." Said a man who walked up to them. He had black hair, a black t-shirt and an iron sword. "People call me Okward (okwardindustries)." he said.
"Are those your real names." Ross asked.
Max nodded in agreement with Ross. "You don't even look like an elf." Max stated.
"It's just a name." She said, slightly annoyed. "Besides I'm pretty good with a bow and arrow."
"I'm just awkward." Okward said.
"Well thanks for the save." Shelby said.
"But next time we can handle it." Sky stated. "I'm Sky."
"I'm Tyler." Tyler said.
"I'm Jess."
"I'm Shelby." She said waving.
"I'm Max." Max said.
"I'm Ross." Ross said.
"I'm Red." Red said.
"I'm Barney." Barney said.
"Ok. Considering what Max and Ross said, I'll try not to make fun of Red and Barney." Elfia stated.
Suddenly a flame was seen lit in the forest. Okward gasped. "Uh oh." He started running towards the flame.
"Are you as stupid as Ross?" Max yelled."
"No, that's where we live. Come on." Elfia said running after Okward. Everyone ran after them.
Max groaned. "Are they crazy?!" He asked while running. "Just build a new home or something."
"No, one of our friends are still there." Okward said.
"How did that fire even happen?" Jess asked.
"Does this have something to do with that squid thing?" Ross asked.
"Maybe." Sky answered panting.
They arrived to find a burning area in the forest with a house in the middle of the flames. A strange person covered in melons came running out. "How did that happen?" He asked.
"Bashur (bashurverse) are you ok?" Okward asked.
"Is he a melon?" Tyler asked.
"Yes, well at least I'm covered in them." Bashur said getting up.
"Glad your ok. Now can we prevent a forest fire?" Elfia asked pointing at the burning house.
"We don't have any buckets of water." Max stated. It started to rain, the rain cleared the flames. "Well, nevermind. We best be going."
"Going where?" Bashur asked. "No one just comes into the forest for no reason."
"We're on a quest." Shelby said.
"A quest for what exactly?" Elfia asked.
"To defeat an overlord capable of taking down our kingdom." Barney said.
"He's supposed to be a squid." Ross stated.
"...What?" Bashur was confused.
A voice in the forest was heard. "Your on a quest to defeat a squid lord?" The person laughed. "How interesting."
"What's that? Who are you?" Sky said drawing his sword.
"I'm the one who caused the fire." He came from out of the shadows. It was a squid in a redstone machine filled with water. "There's no way you can stop me." Everyone started laughing.
"That's who your going to defeat?" Elfia chuckled.
"Dude, he's too easy." Okward said guffawing.
"Why is this a challenge?" Sky asked while laughing."
"Oh, this is why!" The squid said as he pushed a button. The machine had a strange glowing block in it that appeared.
"Glowstone lamp? You are easy." Ross said. Everyone laughed again.
"No, this is one of the two command blocks of the world!" The squid said.
Ross and Tyler gasped. "You have a command block?" Tyler asked.
"What's a command block?" Shelby asked.
"In one of Notch's books, it spoke of a legendary redstone machine." Ross told them. "He called it a command block."
"It was made to be better than every redstone machine." Tyler stated. "Until Notch and Jeb realized it's too powerful."
"But only two were made. And no one ever saw them." The squid said, he pushed a button on the command block and the rain stopped. "Name's just Squid by the way."
"That's a generic name." Okward said.
"Listen Squid, we'll foil your plans." Red said ready to fire his bow.
"Yeah. What are you going to do anyway?" Max said holding his sword.
"This." Squid clicked a button and three endermen appeared. "Did you know you can spawn things with this block? I am UNSTOPPABLE!" He exclaimed before clicking a button that teleported him away.
"Uh oh. Why endermen?" Elfia said while shooting them. The endermen then tried to attack Tyler.
Tyler screamed and ran in circles. "Get them away from me!" He yelled.
"Your moving too much." Red said trying to aim.
"What if we hit you?" Barney asked.
"Just do it!" Tyler said running out of breath. Barney, Red and Elfia shot their arrows while two hit the endermen. Tyler tripped into a pond where the last endermen stopped and teleported away because of the water. The arrow that Red shot hit Tyler in the back. "Ow- ok maybe this is better than being beat by endermen." He said.
"Here, let me help." Okward said coming over to Tyler to help him out.
"Nice job with the archery." Elfia said to Barney and Red.
"Even me?" Red asked.
"No one's aim is good." Elfia responded.
"Ahh!" Tyler screamed as Okward pulled the arrow off. "It hurts so much to take it out!"
"It's off now." Bashur told Tyler "What's your names anyway?" He asked.
"Ok, meet Max, Ross, Red, Jess, Shelby, Barney, Tyler and Sky." Elfia said introducing them.
"Hey, do you guys need some help with your quest?" Okward asked.
"You guys would want to help us?" Barney asked.
"Well yeah, I know the layout of the world and a method to great duel wielding." Bashur said.
"And it would be great to fight monsters and such." Elfia said.
"Sure, the more the merrier." Sky said.
"Also you guys seemed a lot more skilled than us." Shelby said.
"Onward and forward." Bashur said heading toward the exit of the forest.
"Say, have you lived there forever?" Barney asked.
"It looks like your friend is a little... crazy." Max stated.
"He's been there for a while." Okward.
"We went into this forest to fight monsters." Elfia told them. "We ran into him and he kind of taught us those skills."
"Actually." Bashur said interrupting. "I'm thinking maybe I should move. The fire sealed the decision."
"Live in our place." Ross said.
"We'll think about it." Okward said.
"Right now I think we should go after the fish with a command block." Elfia said.
As they exited the forest, our heroes were now in a desert. "This place is so hot." Tyler said.
"There's a house over there." Max said pointing at a building with a pond beside it.
"Good, I NEED WATER!" Ross yelled running toward the pond, he dived into it.
"Ross!" Shelby and Max said running after him. Everyone else followed.
"Ross, this isn't even your house." Sky stated.
"But its so cooling." Ross said floating in the water.
"Whoever lives here isn't going to be too happy." Bashur stated.
Tyler jumped into the water as well. Everyone stared at him. "What? If you can't beat them join them."
"What are you guys doing at my house?" Someone from behind them asked. "Wait? Sky is that you?" He asked.
"Oh, yea. Wait, your Jin (jinbop)!" Sky said running to him for a high five. Jin high fived him. "It's so nice to see you again." Sky said smiling.
"Nice to see you too Sky." Jin said.
"Want to fill us in?" Red asked.
"Oh, Jin is an old friend of mine." Sky said.
"Yeah we were." Jin said. "Except we went separate ways after he wanted to find 'budder' and I wanted to find some hidden realm." Jin brought out a book.
"'Realm'? What realm?" Elfia asked.
"A realm made by someone named 'Danger Orespawn'." Jin answered turning to the last page of the book. "He talked about it at the end of his diary."
"Cool." Max said.
"So is it ok if we stay here for a while?" Tyler asked still in the pond.
"Are these new friends of yours?" Jin asked while putting the book away.
"Yep." Sky said. "Meet Red, Barney, Max, Jess, Shelby, Ross, Tyler, Elfia, Okward and Bashur." He said.
"Oh nice to meet you guys." Jin said waving. "As you just heard, I'm Jin."
"Can we stay for a while? Jess asked.
"Sure. That'd be ok." Jin replied. "What are you guys doing here anyway?"
"We're on a quest to defeat someone who got their hands on a command block." Tyler said.
"A command block?" He said, shocked. "But there's only two in the whole world."
"Yeah but he has access to it and now we don't know what he's capable of." Shelby stated.
"He's also a squid." Barney said.
"Believe it or not, he is." Sky said.
"Woah, maybe I should help you guys on your mission." Jin said. "You know, for old times sake?"
"Sure buddy." Sky said.
"I think with our friendship we'll be able to beat him." Red said.
"That's real corny." Max said.
"True, but he's not wrong." Shelby said giggling.
"So do you have some food?" Barney asked.
"Sure." Jin said. "There's some in my house. It's in a chest with a sign above it that says food."
"Don't go crazy Barney." Jess said as Barney went into the house. Everyone stayed the night.
Meanwhile at Squid's lair. "Sir Squid, what is your next command." A humanoid squid asked.
"I command you to get the ore I needed." Squid commanded. "This world will finally see what squids are capable of." Squid said as he did a maniacal laugh.
