King, Orchid and Dark walked inside Dark's compound.
"Orchid, you explore wherever you want, except for the room with the brown door. Me and the king need to have a private discussion..." Dark reluctantly said.

Orchid nodded, before wandering down the hallway.
"I colour code all the doors. Helps when I start having headaches and.. blacking out."
"The orange stick did that to you?" King replied.
"Worse. I didn't realize he had hidden powers, he pummelled me before lasering me into a mountain. Almost killed me. Had to operate on myself just to fix some broken bones and repair some limbs."

After a brief pause, Dark continued.
"My wristband was shattered, I had to search for 3 days in the rain for the pieces.. well, the ones that hadn't been reduced to dust."
"He did the same thing to me.. slammed me through the Nether roof, breaking my staff and destroying the Ultra Block. Left me heavily damaged..." King remembered what the orange stick did to him.

After another pause, Dark spoke once more.

"I did some research into him and found that his name is The Second Coming."

King's mouth dropped. He finally learned something about the mysterious "Second Coming". This was an entirely new revelation to him, to finally get a one-up on his nemesis. He grinned, before looking down at Dark.
"Where do we get started?"

Orchid went across the hall, looking for a door that stuck out to her, since all the doors seemed colour coded so far. She saw the brown door, no, two brown doors, one on the left and the other on the right. The weird red guy didn't say anything about two brown doors...
After a moment's thinking, she went into the left brown door. Instead of being cautious like she should've, she headed straight in.

The room was pitch black, with no sign of light switch anywhere. She took a step forward, before her left foot crackled with electricity and she couldn't move.
"Wait, what?!" Orchid struggled to escape, before she looked down and saw there was a device that was trapping her foot. She was about to use her powers to destroy it, before she felt a blade pierce her chest.

She didn't have time to look at what blade it was, or who stabbed her, but all she heard was
"Well well well..."
...and all went black.

King and Dark entered a room through a red door, the same red shade that made up Dark's skin. There was a large map of the surrounding area that spread out approximately 200 miles in each direction. With that, there were schematics on the wall for a new wristband and a new Vira-Bot design.

"Impressive place." King said as he admired the schematics.
"Thanks. Had to take extra recon precautions." Dark said.
King placed his weapons on the table in front of him. "I had to take precautions too..."
Dark looked at the weapons.
"Impressive! I tinkered with the idea of this type of weaponry before me and Chosen discovered wristband technology..."

King tilted his head, confused as to why he hadn't asked who he was yet.
"You seem to know me."
"Well, you know me, don't you?" Dark replied. King didn't answer, knowing what he meant.

"So, our plan of action." Dark said.
"Right. That little orange stick interferes everything with his hidden ex-machina..."
"So, we need a device to stop that!" Dark grinned.
"We also need to power our equipment up massively. Even my staff with the Minecraft Blocks, combined mind you, couldn't stop him. I fired a massive energy beam at him.. and he simply walked through it."

Dark was already making notes.
"I have the Block, or a Block now that both the Animator's Block and that other Block are destroyed. I don't think a staff will cut it this time."
"You wanna try wristbands? I managed to harness dark energy in all of it's destructive glory into just one wristband."
"That could work, but I'm not sure if it can harness the energy of the Block, or even more than one Block."

After a bit of thinking, Dark spoke up.
"Your crown. How about that?"
"...now that I think about it, the wristbands seem like the best way to go. Also, the crown is just normal gold, no special material like my staff."

After several hours of schematics and ideas, they had the blueprint they needed. A wristband that could harness the power of up to 2 Ultra Blocks. This was far too powerful to just be kept in the wristband, so it was linked to King's soul and code to keep it stable.
"I don't have the things I need here." Dark said.
"Well, can you salvage parts out of Minecraft blocks?" King replied, holding up his Block again.
"Sure I could, but it'd- Oh, right, you have that." Dark stumbled on his words a bit, before King handed the Block to him.

After getting what he needed, Dark handed the Block back to King. It only took mere hours for Dark to construct and code the wristband (via experience with failed experiments of his own wristband). King watched, taking it all in, before Dark requested the Block back. King gave it back to him.

Dark put the Block over the wristband. He watched as it was all sucked in, creating a black shockwave, and the silver of the wristbands turned glowing black with white outlines.
"We've done it. We've finally created..."
