Soul's POV

I was sleeping in my room when out of now where I hear someone calling out for Sky....why am I dreaming about him? But when I was about to drift off to my dream world, I heard someone literally scream for Sky. I climbed out of the bed and started to run towards the source of the scream. I came upon a large set of doors, but when I opened them, all I saw was complete and utter horror. The room was covered in blood, and all I saw were the bodies of the Team Crafted members on the ground unconscious.....no they were dead.

I stared at the scene in front of me in utter shock and horror. How could anyone have done this!?!? I walked over to King Sky's body and saw that he was barely alive.

"King Sky! Please don't die....please don't! I won't be able to live without you!" I cried with tears streaming down my face.

"R-run...Soul...save yourself" he said his finally words and died right in my arms.

"No.....No....NO!!!!" Why did this have to happen? Why? These people didn't deserve to die.

"Yes they did"

"Who's there? Where are you? Come out and face me you coward!" I yelled to whoever was here with me.

"My, My, My. You really have forgotten about me haven't you? Then again you did manage to lock me up and to force yourself to forget. But if I have to..... My name is Derp and the rest of us want- no are coming back to you. There's nothing you can do about it Soul.....WE ARE ALREADY HERE!" Derp yelled the last part and lunged at me. He had driven a sword into my heart, and by the time that he pulled the sword out, I had died as well....

I woke up screaming and nearly fell off of the bed that Seto was allowing me to borrow. Oh I forgot to mention this but.... I didn't want to share a room with my friends, so Seto was kind enough to allow me to crash in his room for the time being. I looked over to see Seto staring at me with a questioning look.

"Soul what happened? I mean, you were screaming in your sleep, and you scared the Nether out of me when you woke up like that! What was that dream about anyways?" He asked with a worried expression on his face.

"I-I'm fine. Really it's nothing to worry about, I'll be fine. It was just a very bad nightmare that's all." I gave him a fake smile hoping that he'd buy it. He just shrugged his shoulders and was about to leave to do something, but stopped and faced me.

"Oh um Soul, if you want me to give you something to help calm you down, I can. There's a bottle on the shelf over there, but drink the lavender one, not the purple-ish pink one. They each have two different affects." He said, and when he was done explaining he left the room.

I nodded my head and walked over to the shelf that Seto pointed at. I was about to grab the lavender one but then something or someone made me drink the purple-ish pink one.

What the!?!? What's happening!?!?! Why am I doing this!?!? Someone help!!!

Don't worry Soul, this'll be over quick. All we're doing is changing how you look, that's all...

What! Why are you doing this though!?!?! I don't want to do something that will get me kicked from the Base!!!

Don't worry you won't be doing it, I'll be the one doing it for you!

And with that I was pushed into the back of my mind, and fell unconscious for what felt like hours.

~~~le time skip of potato cats ^3^~~~

I woke up and found myself with a checkered hoodie on.

"What the-" I started to say but something went in my mouth. I pulled hair out of my mouth and tried to pull it away from my face but all I got was pain. "Ow! Ok this is really weird"

I got up and went to the library's bathroom and locked the door. I looked in the mirror and saw that I had long brown hair and golden eyes, or well eye cause one was covered by my hair. I still had my red headphones, and I was wearing a checkered hoodie like Mitch's but purple. I had black sneakers with purple toes and white laces. I still had my amulet, except it was purple amethyst now instead of a blue sapphire, and I was also wearing black gloves with a white trim on them. Ok I can see what Seto meant by different effects but still, why did I drink that potion anyways? I knew that I had the right potion but instead I drank the wrong potion...Whats happening to me?

I was broken out of my thoughts when Herobrine appeared next to me.

"Wha- WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!?!?" I screamed at him as he appeared suddenly next to me. you don't do that to people....its just weird.

But Herobrine grabbed my shoulders and teleported me to who knows where. I opened my eyes and saw that the guys were standing together with their stuff over their shoulders.

"Um who's she?" Quentin asked pointing at me. I face palmed right then and there and explained what had happened except for the dream and the voice taking control. Instead I said that I mistook the potion for the lavender one and hoped that they believed it. They all stood there and and said that it happened to them before and that it was no problem. But then we all teleported again but to a different place.

Ian's POV

Herobrine had teleported us to a different location, and I saw that we were in the Aether. I looked at Herobrine suspiciously.

"I have something to tell you all and it may come as a shock but, last night two "visitors" had infiltrated the base. They were after Sky an one of them had managed to knock Sky out with a direct hit with a fireball. It had sent him flying across the room and he landed straight into the wall. He was severely injured and my brother said that he shouldn't have survived....but he did. Sky is currently resting here and is still unconscious. We have yet to see him wake up......." Herobrine said grimly.

"How severely were the injuries Hero? Were they life threatening or were they just severe injuries?" Seto asked trying to figure this whole mess out.

"Well you see.....his injuries included several broken ribs, a fractured arm, and a broken leg....Notch said that he should be dead and that he shouldn't have survived. But I know that Notch is hiding something from me. I just know it!" Herobrine said fiercely.

"Ok...But why did you bring us here Herobrine? We all want to know what happened to Sky yes, but why did you bring us here?" Jerome asked through gritted teeth.

"Well you see.....Notch wants to talk to you about something....But he won't tell me what though...." Herobrine said with a grim look on his face.

"Well lead the way Hero....we don't got all day" I said taking a step forward and started walking.

"Right" Herobrine said and started leading the way. We started heading towards where Notch was.....

Notch has a lot of explaining to do.....Including why he has Sky here and not back at the Base. We're coming Sky...just you wait....
