The strangers finally reached the large, golden, castle gates. Taking a deep breath the "leader" of the group took a step into veiw of the castle guards. The others soon followed, right behind him.

Sky heard a sudden knocking on his door. Struggling up, he hastily fixed his "bedridden" hair, before grasping the cold doornob. Opening it, he came face to face with one of the castle guards.

"Sir, we have 4 travelers who wish to see you."

Sky thought. Four strangers. He was uncertain, he didn't know what to do! He stared up at the guard who was patiently waiting.

He cleared his throat, "Oh, right, send them to the old TeamCrafted Meeting room."

"Yes sir!" The guard hastily left.

The srangers eyed the guards suspiciously as they led them through the halls. As each twist and turn was made, they began to assume it was a trap.

The smallest of the four slipped out a knife. The "leader" gently put his hand reassuringly on his arm, and the knife was withdrawn.

They soon saw the room, a sign was posted above it.

"TeamCrafted Meeting room"

The guard opened the door,"Right through here, sirs."

The four entered the room to the sight of a single man sitting at the head of the table. The man slowly got up to face them, and the smallest one let out an audible gasp.

The man had grey, black, and white armor. His hair was kept in a small ponytail, and his eyes were hidden by his glasses. Chocolaty brown hair piled messily around his face, falling out of the ponytail. And over his heart, he adorn a golden amulet with the purplest of rock on the inside.

The "leader" of the group stepped up. Gently pulling of his hood, he smiled.

"Hey, Goat!"

Sky gaped ate the person before him.

"B-Barney?!" He was overwhelmed with joy.

As Sky gaped, Barney nodded to two of the strangers. They slowly threw down their cloaks.

Sky gasped,"Jess?! Ross?! How are you-" he cut himself off "How?"

Barney sighed," we had some help."

Barney, Ross, and Jess had traveled with Sky to the Nether long before Sky army. When they reached the tall nether brick walls, they had thought their victory assured. But then, all hell broke lose.

Flashback

"Barney, Ross! JESS!!!"

Sky cried out as the army of blazes encircled his friends.

"Go Goat! We'll be fine!"

"No! I'm not-"

"GO!!!"

That was all it took to turn Sky's world around. Soon after, he met Team Crafted, and had sworn to protect them with all he could. After it formed, he had forgotten about the three. The sacrafice they had made. He no longer remembered. Until now, that is. All the memories flooded back to him. The good, the bad. He smiled.

He suddenly noticed the fourth figure in the room. He was smaller than the others, and stayed back. His hood was down, completely covering his face. Sky stared suspiciously at the hooded figure. He seemed familiar, yet he couldn't place it.

Flashback

"Haha, you're so small!" The boy squealed when Sky pulled him up into the air.

The boy was tiny, but he struggled, causing Sky to fall onto his back. As they laughed together in the tall grasses, the wind blew, whistling in the far off forest.

The boy smiled at Sky.

"You're my best friend! Lets be friends forever!"

Sky smiled, "Yeah!"

Sky shook the thought from his mind. That person had died a long time ago, and he wasn't gonna come back. Ever.

Barney smiled as the stranger walked forward. He lifted his hood and revealed his face.
