Chapter XI: The Overworld Tour Continues... (Phase IX)
HJ: Well, at least we're in warp speed. Riga said she could get us there in 90 seconds.
Josh: Yes, HJ, that's correct. Riga did once say to you that if we're lucky, we can beat the Steamferno Clan to all to cities listed on their greatest plan ever to take over the overworld and then the universe.
Narrator/EPF: 1.5 minutes later...
Riga: Okay, everyone. We'll be out of warp speed in three, two, one...
(ding!)
(ZOOM!)
Tom: *looks around for the Steamferno Clan Airship* No sign of the Steamferno Clan Airship, HJ!
HJ (to Tom): Good eye, Tom.
Riga (to HJ): Where do you want me to land, HJ?
HJ (to Riga): I'm gonna say on the north side of Ankara again.
Riga (to HJ): Okay! *does so*
*Riga lands her airship on the northern side of the city*
*Riga turns off her airship*
(redstone engines powering down)
(ramp whirs as it opens)
*everyone gets off Riga's airship*
(ramp whirs as it closes)
*Riga locks her airship*
(beep, beep!)
City Number CCXLI: Ankara, Turkey
HJ: We gotta make sure the Steamferno doesn't take control of this city.
Josh: They should be here in 5 to 7 minutes.
HJ: Just one more phase after this. And if we can stop them from taking over the overworld and the universe for the last remaining 59 cities on the list, then all 300 cities from all over the world on their list will be safe from being conquered by them.
Jamie: This is just so pointless. We've been gone for, like, many days now.
Tom: Man, I've been wearing some of the clothes I've packed up for, like, a few days now.
Ryan: Same here.
Zoe: Look at the bright side, everybody. At least the Steamferno Clan has one more phase on their list after this.
All: (agreeing with Zoe)
Tess: *walks up to HJ* HJ, I'm hungry. My hunger bar is critically low. I haven't set my spawn point in days. I don't wanna starve to death and respawn far from you and the others. And besides, if I respawn, I'll have to teleport to you, in which I'm getting very tired of it.
HJ (to Tess): How much of your hunger bar is left, Tess?
Tess (to HJ): One.
HJ: *gets four cooked pork chops from his inventory* Here you go, Tess. Four cooked pork chops. *drops the four cooked pork chops*
*Tess picks up the four cooked pork chops*
(items plop)
Tess: *eats all four of cooked pork chops that HJ give to her to fully restore her hunger*
(four Minecraft eating noises)
*Tess' hunger bar gets fully restored*
Ryan: Same here.
Zoe: Look at the bright side, everybody. At least the Steamferno Clan has one more phase on their list after this.
All: (agreeing with Zoe)
Tess: *walks up to HJ* HJ, I'm hungry. My hunger bar is critically low. I haven't set my spawn point in days. I don't wanna starve to death and respawn far from you and the others. And besides, if I respawn, I'll have to teleport to you, in which I'm getting very tired of it.

Tess (to HJ): Thank you, HJ!
HJ: You're welcome, Tess.
Drew: HJ, I'm glad you're able to help other people, but what is the Steamferno Clan doing for their conquests to take over 300 different cities around the overworld? Oh ma gosh!
HJ: It's just their greatest plan ever to take over the overworld and then the universe, Drew. We only have 59 more cities to go.
Drew: (sighs)
Narrator/EPF: 5 to 7 minutes later...
(electrical zapping in the sky)
HJ: Guys, look! The Steamferno Clan is here!
*the others look at the electrical zapping in the sky*
*an orange wormhole opens up*
(ding!)
(ZOOM!)
*the orange wormhole closes*
Narrator/EPF: Meanwhile on the Steamferno Clan Airship...
Dr. Steamferno: Yes! At last! We made to Ankara! The starting city of Phase IX of our plan.
Steam Dark Hugh Jacob: Boss, the Cork Men and their 12 rookies beat us here.
Dr. Steamferno (angrily): Oh, come on!
Steam Magma Commander: Where do you want my Steam Magma Drones to attack?
Dr. Steamferno (to Steam Magma Commander): Have them attack downtown Ankara.
Steam Magma Commander: Okay. *walks up to a machine of his* Deploying all 30,000 Steam Magma Drones to attack downtown Ankara. *set the coordinates and they get locked and loaded* Coordinates locked and loaded. Preparing to teleport the Steam Magma Drones. *pulls a lever*
(lever clicks)
(evil warbling teleporting noises)
Steam Magma Commander: All set.
Narrator/EPF: Returning to the scene we were at seconds before...
HJ: We have to put a stop to those Steam Magma Drones and make sure they don't conquer Ankara or any of the other remaining cities on their list.
Narrator/EPF: Gang, I hate to break up the conversation, but the Steam Magma Drones are attacking downtown Ankara.
(people screaming in distance)
HJ: That's our cue. *to EPF* Teleport us to the attack site!
Narrator/EPF: You got it, Hugh Jacob.
(teleporting noises)
*the gang teleports to the attack site*
(teleporting noises)
*the gang reaches the attack site*
HJ: There they are. The Steam Magma Drones. Now, everyone. ATTACK!
(all yelling war cries)
*the Steam Magma Drones turn around*
Steam Magma Drone #1: It's the Cork Men and their 12 rookies! Get them!
Steam Magma Drone #2: Capture them for the boss.
Steam Magma Drone #3: The boss desires them alive.
(Steam Magma Drones firing their lasers)
(arrows whooshing)
*the gang deflects the arrows*
(many Steam Magma Drones powering down as they get defeated)
Narrator/EPF: Sometime later...
HJ: Rah! *defeats the last Steam Magma Drone and it powers down* *turns off his laser diamond sword and puts it up* There, I think that's all of them.
(all cheering)
Narrator/EPF: Meanwhile on the Steamferno Clan Airship...
Dr. Steamferno: (grumbles angrily) What?! All of the Steam Magma Drones are offline!? This can't be!
Steam Dark Hugh Jacob: Boss, I'm with you on this one. But we have tons more of Steam Magma Drones left.
Dr. Steamferno: We've failed to conquer this city! Just like how we failed the past 240 cities on the list to conquer! Even at the beginning of Phase IX of our plan!
Steam Magma Commander: We still have 1,770,000 Steam Magma Drones left. But the entire army of Steam Magma Drones are almost gone! The Cork Men and their gang of 12 children rookies have defeated 7,230,000 of the Steam Magma Drone army.
Dr. Steamferno: The Cork Men beat us to almost every city on our list! But I guarantee you both, Steam Magma Commander and Steam Dark Hugh Jacob, my evil apprentice on behalf of the entire Steamferno Clan despite the fact that the rest of the clan is at their stations on this airship that when we get to the final city of Phase X on our list and city number 300 that we'll beat the Cork Men and their 12 rookies that happen to be kids to Tokyo! We'll beat the Cork Men and their 12 rookie children when we get to Tokyo! (chuckles evilly)
Steam Magma Commander: This is just a great idea, boss!
Dr. Steamferno (to Steam Dark Hugh Jacob): Where to next, my evil apprentice?
Steam Dark Hugh Jacob: Tehran, Iran.
Dr. Steamferno: Excellent! We'll terrorize Tehran better than any terrorist there!
Steam Dark Hugh Jacob: Tehran is 415 miles away from here as the crow flies, boss.
Dr. Steamferno: To Tehran, we go! (laughs manically) *pulls the warp speed lever*
(lever clicks)
(ZOOM!)
(ding!)
Narrator/EPF: Returning to the scene we were at seconds before...
HJ (to Jamie): Jamie! Where are they going to next?
Jamie (to HJ): They're going to Tehran.
Josh: Iran's capital city?
HJ: Yes, Josh.
Riga: We all better get going right now!
Jack: Act fast, you speedos! (laughs)
HJ (to EPF): EPF, teleport us back to Riga's airship. Teleport us to the inside of it.
Narrator/EPF: You got it, Hugh Jacob!
(teleporting noises)
*the gang teleports to the inside of Riga's airship*
(teleporting noises)
HJ: Let's follow them.
*Riga unlocks her airship*
(beep, beep!)
*Riga turns on her airship*
(redstone engines powering up)
*Riga's airship takes off*
Riga: We're high up in the sky! We have clear skies ahead of us, you guys! Setting coordinates for Tehran, Iran. *sets coordinates* *coordinates get locked and loaded* Coordinates locked and loaded, baby! Here we go! *pulls the warp speed lever on her right*
(lever clicks)
(ZOOM!)
(ding!)
HJ (to Riga): Riga! How long will it take for us to get to Tehran through warp speed?
Riga: It'll be short this time, HJ. It'll take us t-minus 30 seconds to get there!
HJ (to Riga): Okay!
Narrator/EPF: 30 seconds later...
(ZOOM!)
(ding!)
HJ: We're out of warp speed. *to Riga* Riga! Land your airship on the north side of Tehran!
Riga (to HJ): Okay! *does so*
