The 3 Frostborn members Thomas, Reus, and Akaya were fighting a horde of Zombies near a Frostbourn outpost. "Thomas, Watch out!" Reus would shout. A Zombie would charge at him. Not thinking long, the skilled Fighter kicked the Zombie in the chest and then dashed forward and dealt it the final strike.

Meanwhile Both Reus and Akaya were busy dealing with 4 undead. The first Undead charges towards Reus, Reus was a new-be in the team and got hit, he fell to the ground struggling with the Undead which is trying to bite Raus. Akaya noticed Reus's situation as he thrusts his blade through another undead. Akaya came to Reus to help, he kicked the Undead off Reus and threw his blade in the Zombie. Akaya reached out his hand to Reus and helped him up. There was no time to take a breath as the two remaining Undead were approaching the two rapidly. As they prepared to fight Thomas jumped in from the side, he kicked one Undead in the knee causing it to be stunned for the second while striking the other with his sword through the chest. Thomas quickly pulled the sword out of the Undead and turned, striking the second undead and killing both in a matter of seconds.

"Damn Thomas we would have been just fine without you." Akaya said.
"The hell do you mean Akaya, I just saved you the trouble!" Thomas said in response.
"Yea Yea, let's go check if the reports of the Nether portal are true. It's freezing cold out here." Akaya said.

The three went back to their horses and continued on their path to the Nether portal.

Meanwhile at the nether portal, Abigail woke up, she felt dizzy, everything was spongy and for the first time in a long time the cold was hurting. She struggled to get up, her cloths were covered in deep red color and tattered from the heat of the lava and the fighting. Around her was a puddle of blood. With each time she tried to get up, she felt as her will and strength to survive faded more. She held her chest laying on the side. She thought she would be sure to die. But then she heard noises, the noises sounded like people. It was night so she couldn't see far but she knew that someone was near. She tried to shout, but she couldn't get a word out.

"Hey Look." Akaya said while pointing at a Purple light "That's got to be the Nether portal."
"Let's go check it out then," Reus said.

The three got off their horses. Thomas drew his blade, and so did Akaya and Reus. Akaya approached the light slowly followed by Thomas and Reus. "Watch out for Pigs" *Thomas said, they encountered these beasts enough times to know how dangerous they can be. They arrived at the portal, to their surprise. There were no Piglings around.

"Ah well, makes the job easier for us I suppose." Thomas said as he placed his sword behind his back.

Akaya walked on the other side of the portal to check for any enemies.

"Hey, guys! Come over here!" Akaya shouted.

Thomas and Reus sprinted over with their blades drawn and ready to fight. To their surprise they found a Netherkin, a badly injured at that.

"Wonderful, and what the hell is that now." Thomas said as he walked up to the Netherkin.
"Is she even alive?" Reus asked.

Thomas kicked her causing her to fall with her back on the ground.

"Damn." Thomas said as he inspected her wound at the chest.

Abigail's eyes would open, she grabbed Thomas at the chest trying to get him away.

"N-No." Abigail said silently as she saw the man with his blade.

Thomas would grab Abigail's arm and move it away with ease. There was nothing she could do against it, she was already to weak to even have a clear sight.

"She is alive, barely." Thomas informs the others. "Ah well, might as well put her out of her misery." Thomas said as he got up, preparing to strike her.
"Wait! I think I know who that is." Reus would intervene.
"The crimson hair and clothing match the reports of the so-called Nether Princess." He'd say
"What the hell are you on about Reus." Thomas said as he put his blade away.
"Thomas you fight better than you think. If we can bring her back we could get viable information out of her." Reus lectured Thomas.
"Urgh fine, let's bring her back. Akaya do you have the bandages?" Thomas would look at Akaya
"Sure do." Akaya said as he threw the bandages to Thomas

Thomas would grab them, he then started to bandage Abigail's wounds. Her blood flew on Thomas's cloths. He finished up shortly after lifted her up to dragged her to Akaya's horse. Then he reached the horse, he tied Abigail's arms behind her back and placed her on the horse. He then grabbed a blanket and placed it over her.

"Hey Akaya, make sure she doesn't fall off alright? Wouldn't want our little devil here to die." Thomas laughed.
"Haha, very funny Thomas" Akaya said as he placed TNT around the Portal.
"Never thought I would safe a Demons life, fucking hell." Thomas thought to himself.

Reus planted out a line of Redstone, he then walked over to his horse and grabbed a Redstone torch from the chest at his horse. Akaya would finish laying out the TNT and walk back to his horse.

"Alright Reus, Light it up!" Akaya said while looking at Reus.

Reus nods and knees down to the Redstone, he places the torch next to the Redstone line. The line would light up red and shortly after the TNT could be heard charging. The group jumped on their horses and got out of the blast radius.

Back at the Outpost...

"Hey, guys! Glad to see you back." The guard at the gate would say as he gave the Guard on the wall a hand signal. "This might take a second, the gate is acting up." He would add.

Shortly after, the gate would open and the team would move in.

"Hey Akaya, make sure that our demon gets treatment. If she dies that info dies as well." Thomas would say to Akaya.
"Yea yea, I'm on it." Akaya would say as he reaches for Abigail.

Akaya walked over to Abigail, to his surprise tho, Abigail woke up and jumped off the horse. She did not yet have the strength to make a run for it and with her hands tied to her back she fell to the ground. She tried to crawl away from Akaya, but there was no chance for her to escape either way.

"Fuck, we are trying to help you." Akaya would say to Abigail.
"So you can do what? Use me as some kind of trophy." *She would snap back.

Akaya would not respond and pull her off the ground. He would pick her up and help her walk to the Outpost Doctor.

In the meantime Thomas would report to the Outpost Commander Kathrine to inform her about the events that unfolded.

"Commander?" Thomas said as he entered the tent.
"Good to see you are back, so were the reports true?" Kathrine asked
"Yes Ma'am, there was a Nether Portal, as you instructed we closed it and made sure not Piglings remained in the area. However, we also found something else." Thomas said.
"Oh is that so?" Kathrine gave Thomas her full attention.
"Yes, we found a Netherkin female. She looks similar to the description given out of the person that was called the Nether Princess." Thomas replied.
"Hmm, make sure she doesn't escape. She can be useful to us." Kathrine answered.
"Yes, Ma'am." Thomas salutes and walks off.
