A deafening crack of lightning tore through the darkened skies, illuminating the mournful faces of the Minecraft server players as they stood in solemn silence around the freshly dug grave. Johnson, the enderman, had passed away in a tragic accident, his body discovered by Rae-Won in the pouring rain, his final moments spent crying out for help that never came. The grief was palpable as Nikki, Steff, Eli, Rae-Won, and Jules huddled together, their tears mingling with the relentless downpour. Johnson had been more than just a friend to them, he had been a beloved companion and loyal ally in their adventures. As they lowered Johnson's lifeless body into the ground, a sudden flash of lightning struck a nearby tree, causing a fiery blaze to erupt. Everyone jumped back, frightened by the sudden outburst of flames. The storm grew more intense as the players gathered around Johnson's grave, the gusting wind and torrential rain soaking them to the bone. As night fell, Jules and Nikki were left alone to stand guard over their fallen friend's final resting place. Suddenly, a skeleton materialized out of the shadows, poised to strike at any moment. Jules immediately sprang into action, drawing his sword and shield to defend himself and Nikki. She fought bravely alongside him, their weapons clashing against the undead monster. The battle was long and arduous, but finally, Jules seized the opportunity to strike a lethal blow, sending the skeleton tumbling to the ground. But even as the rain continued to pour down, their victory was short-lived, for it seemed that danger lurked around every corner in this dark and dangerous world. Six days after Johnson's death, Nikki made a fateful mistake, using the enderpearl that lay atop his grave, inadvertently transporting herself to an unknown location. Frantic with worry, she desperately tried to return the enderpearl to its rightful place before anyone noticed its absence. Only Jules witnessed her mistake, and he knew the stakes were high. If word got out, it could lead to chaos and destruction, as alliances were shattered and old wounds reopened. He vowed to keep Nikki's secret safe, no matter what the cost, for the memory of Johnson and their bond was too important to risk losing.
