"clay! clay! clay! CLAY!" tommy screeched. "there's a blaz--tw--four blazes shooting at me!"

clay laughed as he turned a corner and saw tommy at a spawner. they only needed two more rods.

he helped the young boy kill them and victoriously smiled as they got three more.

"buddy, c'mon," dream said. "let's trade for pearls and then we can get out of he--TOMMY!"

tommy laughed as clay block-clutched on the side of a cliff, only a few blocks above a lava lake.

clay frowned dramatically. "that was not funny."

tommy grinned. "yes it was! now let's go."

after a while, they had managed to trap three piglins and get pearls off of them and they got to the overworld--but not before tommy trying to hit clay off a cliff--again.

clay sighed, rolling his eyes at tommy's shit-eating grin still on his face as he made the pearls into ender eyes and threw the first one, it headed towards a forest.

the two followed and tommy kept trying to hit clay off of anything or into anything and all the seventeen year old was groan in mock-annoyance.

okay, maybe it was true annoyance.

but nevertheless, the two finally got to the stronghold. clay quickly began digging down and the two landed in the stronghold seconds later with still enough pearls.

"split up and tell me if you find the portal room," clay said, already running off in a different direction.

tommy huffed, but did go in the other direction.

he had managed to escape death three times while clay was running from baby zombies when tommy said, "i found it! i can see your nametag! look for mine."

with his eyes scanning the screen, clay caught a glimpse of tommy's own nametag and he spammed the jump button so he could hit his head on the roof and finally, he could see the portal room.

"you can put in the eyes," tommy said. "and i will kill the dragon."

clay chuckled. "alright big man."

he put each of the eyes in and tommy eagerly jumped in an as portal lit up, clay following soon after.

since they spawned on the obsidian island, clay bridged quickly with tommy screaming nonsense and once again eagerly jumping onto the island and running over to the towers.

clay began shooting the crystals while tommy waited for the dragon to perch and once clay did get all of the crystals shot, he hurried over to where tommy was.

"the dragon's perching!" clay told him. "hit the head and make sure to crit him."

tommy nodded, listening carefully to clay.

the dragon finally perched and clay hit the dragon every once in a while and tommy focused on the head, they managed to get it down over half way before it flew off again.

"damn it!" tommy cursed. "we were this close!" he held up his hand and pinched his thumb and pointer finger close together.

clay's mouth dropped and clamped shut. "i--tommy! don't say that."

tommy frowned. "why?"

"those are bad words, you don't wanna say that, your parents are gonna get mad at you, big man," clay said.

"but techno an' wilby say them!" tommy countered. "and mom and dad never yell at them."

"well that's because they're older," clay was about to continue on until the dragon lowered itself to perch again.

tommy hurried over, muttering something that clay couldn't catch as he hit the dragon over and over again until the last of its health ran out, freezing and slowly rising and disappearing.

"YES! we beat the game! and i killed the dragon!" tommy whooped.

clay laughed, ruffling the boy's hair. "awesome buddy, now you can say that you've killed it."

once again, he was going to continue until the front door opened and clay's heard jerked over.

two boys that looked his age stood there.

one, was tall, taller than clay. his mass of chocolate hair hung over his eyes, and there was a maroon beanie sitting on top. he was wearing a yellow sweater and loose jeans. his brow rose when he noticed the two on the couch.

the other was just slightly smaller, but it didn't mean his height was truly short. his hair was dyed light pink and it went down to his midback, twisting into a braid. he wore a gold nose ring, gold earrings, and a gold ring on his lip. his black cargo pants were gleaming almost with gold chains running around his waist. and he was wearing a tight black turtleneck.

okay--that one was hot.

"so, i'm guessing you're the one who's supposed to be babysitting our brother?"
