I am suddenly very motivated. My writer's block is (for now) cured! Wooohooooo!

I wouldn't say I'm one to be jealous, but I'm one of the only main characters who are ignored by literally everyone important in this world! But that's the thing, I'm technically not the main character in this world. Why would I be?

As the gang hugged and chatted like old friends, I just stood there, unwavering. It felt terrible to just stand and watch, but what else was there to do? I wasn't building any relationship with them for most of the story. I'm not their 'dear old friend', I'm the person sitting on the sidelines, just like what I thought they were when I'd play. Good old case of karma, I guess.

My train of thought was cut off as they were interrupted by Ivor. Odd, something feels off, like something is different. As Jesse told Ivor his discovery, Ivor got more and more excited, like a kid in a candy shop. Or like Axel in Boom Town, to be honest.

And like that, we were off. Er, well, most of us. Olivia and Axel were sadly left behind.

'It's sad how unimportant they became…"My feet ached, but we were finally at the temple. And to top it all off, Ivor had become an absolute delight for the time being! Heck, he'd repeatedly called Lukas "blond guy"! It was hilarious! Lukas seemed to think otherwise, especially when Petra and Jesse would tease him with it.

In case of emergencies, I had taken my favorite axe with me. It was merely Iron, but I could never part with it. Or at least, not until the day it'd break. After all, It was one of the few things I'd gotten from someone else.

Time for some cool portal crap!… right after we do some fighting.

Jesse found the hole in the ceiling, we ended up climbing up, Jesse lit the portal, and then finally the Fire Twigs came on over. I, the arrogant lady I am, told them my little nickname for them. They hated it, which made me love it so much more.

"It's the Blaze Rods, idiot!"

"Wow, someone's got issues," I laugh.

"You're one to talk," Aiden spat, a tight smile forming on his face. "I heard your dad hated you so much he left!"

That made me freeze immediately.

I could feel the gang staring at me, it burned my skin with self consciousness.

That wasn't true! My father died long before I was born, and he didn't even learn I existed! But something in me told me otherwise. The game finally found its special way to give me character development.

Everything felt so foreign all of a sudden. My comfort game was now trying to torment me.

"What did you just say?" I asked, my voice quiet.

"You heard me," He snickered.

"You're taking this too far, Aiden!" Shouted Jesse.

"You shut up, you always!..."

But I could no longer hear them as white noise filled my ears. I couldn't hear anything, all I could see was that jerk's ugly mug, and all I could feel was my axe in hand. It was like my lifeline, the only thing keeping me on my feet. I saw the jerk raise his weapon, intending on bringing it down on most likely Jesse. It made my fight or flight instinct go absolutely crazy, causing panic and anger to rise up into me. Before I could manage to calm down and prevent myself from being dumb, my emotions had taken over.

Seeing red, I swung with all my might. All I knew was that I wanted him to leave my field of vision. My axe struck him. It launched him back, causing him to flash red and yelp in pain.

I felt absolutely terrible. Not only for him, but also for my poor axe. That was axe abuse. The fact that I had just done that made my insides squirm. It's not that bad, but I don't quite think he deserved that..After the battle, the jerks rushed into the portal as everyone recovered. I didn't fight much, I was in too much shock from the conversation we had. Luckily, the others seemed to have forgotten about it. For now, at least.

We immediately got up and went in after them. As I got flung to the island (dang gravity), I heard Jesse talking about how heavy Ivor is, which made me laugh. Ivor, taking it more harshly than Jesse meant it, replied, "I am the proportionate weight for my height, thank you very much!" Which just made me laugh even harder.

Soon enough, the island was striped bare. So instead of that nice large beautifully natural sky island, we stood on an ugly, infinitely tiny assortment of blocks stuck levitating above the ground. We're all touching, it's super uncomfortable. Everyone is shoving and stumbling and shaving years of their lives off with how careless they are.

'Dang, I suddenly regret coming with them.'

-Hah!-

'Oh hey, you're back!'

-Yup.-

'So what were you up to?'

-I was making caffeine free tea.-

'...What?! That's what you were doing for DAYS?!'

-I'm on a caffeine free diet.-

'...'

-Haha, you're fun to mess with. Now go be dramatic or whatever you do these days.-

I sighed, then started helping the others build a bridge. It wasn't long till Ivor started building his signature lava heart. It doesn't look much like a heart, not in the slightest, but the chaotic energy rejuvenates me.

I smiled brightly, then suddenly remembered my fear of heights as I almost lost my footing. Nobody helped me, of course. I'm beginning to think the game is having trouble incorporating me into it. Finally, someone took notice.

"Hey, you okay?" Asked Lukas.

"Yep! Just not a big fan of heights.." Didn't I mention it at some point?

"Oh yeah! Wow, I can't believe I forgot that. I'm sorry."

There's a sorrowful look in his eyes and it makes me feel ten times worse. Dang it, the only 2% of empathy in me is doing its thing again!

"It's alright, I'm okay! Besides, we're almost to that big island already! I'll be fine."

He nodded and we continued building.

Suddenly, I remember I never apologized to my axe.

'I'm sorry, my poor Googly Slayer. You're for slaying meanie beanies, not for harassing jerks.'

-Oh gosh, please stop!-

'What?'

-You're using those stupid monster nicknames those YouTubers made up!-

'I'll have you know that Squaishy and Stampy basically raised me!'

-I know, I'm sorry for you.-

'Hmph! You're such a jerk.'

-Mhm, and I'm proud of who I am-

The way she said that almost made me burst out laughing, but I keep composure so I don't draw too much negative attention.

Finally, we made it to the island.

"Building is illegal! Didn't you know?" The lanky man gasped.

"It's illegal in this… what do you call it? Ah yes, empire," I start. "Am I correct?"

He nods frantically.

"Well, problem solved. We're not in this empire. As in, we don't belong to it, nor were we in its borders when we built that bridge. Therefore, we have broken no laws."

He looked so confused that I suddenly was extremely glad I decided to be a jerk and use logic falsely.

Of course, in the end he still believed we were in the wrong. Nevertheless, it was well worth it in my opinion. I hope I never forget that look of pure confusion that he had on his face.

"We've just got to find the Inn that nervous guy mentioned, how hard can this be?" Jesse asked the others.

"No idea, but it's definitely our best bet so far," chimed Lukas.

Ivor simply said, "Agreed."

Then we split up. I just stood watching just in case anyone would try to attack us. What's the point of interacting with these people I'm never going to see again? Well, probably the fact that it's nice to be kind to people, especially these people. A good amount of them are going to die soon. But still, I choose to stand guard instead.

Seeing Reggie gives me nostalgia, making me think of Captainsparklez singing 'Final Countdown' while going over to kick Aiden's butt.

Dang, I'm going to have to try and save Sparklez, he's literally my childhood.

I hear Jesse talking to the nervous guy and his friend, talking about Milo then saying they don't know Milo, then saying they know OF him…

Wow, they suck at being secretive.

"He's the kind of… messy looking guy."

"Suspenders always falling down!"

"So messy!"

Slowly, Jesse processed their odd choice of description as he said to them, "Thanks, I guess."

"Pleasestopbuilding,itscaresme!-" the guy blurts out.

"What-?"

And just like that, I'm laughing again. My laughter gets louder as Jesse powerwalk-chases some guy around until I'm practically coughing my lungs out and Ivor has to yell at me to shut up.

The gang goes over to terrorize poor Milo, when suddenly the Founder does her assembly thing. Ivor being Ivor, he yells out "I DID IT! I BUILT THE BRIDGE!!!" while flailing his arm in the air. Before I know it, we're being surrounded. Jesse and Petra were running off with Milo, Lukas was "keeping one of the guards busy" (getting arrested), and Ivor was trying to tell them he came in peace. I just stood there confused, then said "Hey, I'm with these guys." Finally, the guards took notice of me and apprehended me as well.

'Still really lazy, but at least you're writing again.'

Mhm, yep.

'...Did you really have to dedicate paragraphs to how much you adore those YouTubers you used to watch?'

Yes, yes I did. Bye!

'Wait, not yet- Oh, whatever. bye!'

Oh wow, first time checking this on my computer. At times the writing looks like I had a stroke mid sentence. I've never disliked my writing more in my life than at this very moment. I need to either always check on my computer, or never again. I choose never again.
