Jay exited the coffee shop, headed towards their home once more. This whole place seemed so quiet. She wasn't watching where she was going and soon found herself tumbling to the ground.

"What the f-" Was all she could muster out before her voice caught in her throat. Vines. Red vines were splayed across the path.

They hadn't been there when she was walking to the coffee shop.

She kicked them away from her legs and stood, hurrying down the path once more. She needed to figure out what was going on here.

"Jay, Jay, come on, you've got to come." Tommy said, he was dragging Tubbo along, who was wearing some kind of hazmat suit. "There's this egg thing, right, and it makes you feel things. But only I don't feel anything. It's so cool! So we're gonna go see if Tubbo does."

"Slow down, Tommy." She said, hurrying to catch up. "Damn long legs..." She sighed. "Okay, whoa, wait a second. You said egg?"

"Yeah there's this egg that BBH and Antfrost really seem to like and it's like possessing them or something, and when you go near it, it makes you feel things. Either you really like it or you really don't, but I don't feel either. I'm neutral." Tommy explained, leading them to an area with more and more vines cultivating.

"Okay, okay, wait, is this safe?" She asked.

"Sure it is!" Tommy seemed almost giddy. Jay sighed and followed along.

They walked down a long staircase, headed towards a glowing red light. Once down there, the room was covered in red. Vines, huge and small, seeming to be alive, grew throughout the room.

"Eww." Jay said as they stepped in, making a face.

"Come on, let's go see the egg." Tommy said, pulling Tubbo along by the hand. They walked further in and Jay wrinkled her nose. This place was gross, covered in red, and glowing.

"This is the egg!" Tommy waved his hands, almost like he was presenting it. BBH and Antfrost were standing atop it, glaring down at them.

"Now, you could go touch it and see what it says, but that will make you feel things and-" Tubbo was already over to the egg, placing his hands on it.

"Okay..." Jay walked over and did the same. There was nothing, no noise, no sound. No feeling.

"So?" Antfrost asked from above them.

"Oh, wait, the egg is telling me something." Jay said, leaning in. "It wants me to tell you that you're a bitch." She said, nodding to Tubbo.

Tubbo backed away and began to cry, though he was clearly faking it.

"The egg is so mean." He cried, walking over to Tommy and practically head-butting his chest as he hid his face.

"The egg is mean?" Tommy asked, going along with it.

"It's so mean." Tubbo cried, exaggerating the noises he was making. Jay walked over laughing.

"You don't feel anything, do you?" BBH asked.

"Tubbo is crying because your egg is being mean to him." Jay put her hands on her hips. "I demand it gives him an apology."

The two pulled out their swords and slid down the side of the egg. Jay cursed and turned, Tommy and Tubbo having already taken off in the other direction, holding hands. They seemed to do that a lot now.

"We have to get to the Holy Land!" Tommy yelled back to her, hurrying up the stairs. Jay nodded and followed along. Once on the surface, they saw Sam standing on the path with Puffy.

"Sam! Sam help!" Tommy yelled, BBH and Antfrost in close pursuit of them. Sam and Puffy both ran towards them, but as they were a while away, it wouldn't help the kids much.

They could see the border now.

As they neared it, the two chasers seemed to become desperate as they frantically grabbed at the kids arms, trying to stop them. Bad notched an arrow and sent it flying towards Tubbo, Jay shoving him out of the way as the arrow stuck into the ground in front of them. The three dove over the border, now safely in a land that they were unable to be harmed in.

"It's the Holy Land you can't kill anyone!" Sam yelled as they two neared the kids with swords up.

"Screw the Holy Land." Ant growled in a voice that was not his own. Puffy caught his arm, reaching the border just in time.

"If you do that, we will hunt you down and throw you in the prison for as long as we see fit." She threatened, pushing him away. "You wouldn't want to be that far away from the egg for that long, now, would you?" She asked, standing protectively next to Sam, in front of the kids.

Bad and Ant reluctantly turned to leave, heading back towards the egg basement.

"Well that was fun." Tubbo said, beginning to laugh. Soon Jay and Tommy joined him, it had been a long time since she laughed like that. Sam and Puffy smiled at them, standing over the three.

"Alright kids, let's get you cleaned up." Sam said, reaching a hand out for each other the boys. Puffy helped Jay up.

"We need to get you guys in some holy water." Puffy said, placing a hand on Jays back.

"Oh, no, we're okay." Jay said.

"The egg will start taking effect on your moods, it would be better to just get you all clean." Sam added.

"Oh but we're immune." Tommy said.

"Yeah, completely neutral." Tubbo nodded.

"Really?" Sam asked.

"Yeah. The egg had no effect. No voices, no urges, no feelings." Jay nodded along as Tommy explained. "Apparently we're the only ones too. Bad and Ant didn't like that very much, obviously."

"Please tell me you didn't provoke them."

"We had to have a little fun, I mean, come on." Jay said, nudging Tubbos side. He immediately burst out laughing again.

"You three need to stay away from them." Sam said, now serious, with a stern look on his face. "They're dangerous. And now that they know their egg doesn't work on you, well, they'll have it out for your deaths."

You guys! We are #1 in the tag PhilzaMinecraft!!!! This story has been hovering around 5th for the past few weeks and we just jumped up yesterday! Thank you all so so much!

I have been seeing your guys' comments and I'm so incredibly happy y'all are enjoying. Since it's been a while, I thought I'd introduce myself a bit.

My name is Jules and I'm from the US. I started playing Minecraft probably around 10 years ago now. I remember before chests or beds, and then when the only bed you could get were red. I got into mainly Tommy, Tubbo, Ranboo, and Technos streams from my little brother. He wanted someone to talk to him about what was happening and tbh I thought I would hate it but turns out I was wrong! My favorite color is blue and, other than streams and writing, my passion is theater. I am not a minor(surprise!) but I won't be sharing my age rn.

Feel free to comment and tell me a bit about you as well(if you're comfortable). I'd love to read them and I'll be replying to as many as I can.
