Crossed between worlds- A Minecraft story

Chapter 26

"Not so fast," the figure growled.

The figure was standing on four legs, it had two wings and a pair of purple eyes that glared at us.

"That's Ender," Ashton whispered.

"If you want to get through me," Ender said. "You will have to fight me."

He immediately flew up into the air and started shooting flamethrowers at us.

"He didn't do this in the game!" Ashton cried out in alarm.

"Well, he's doing it now!" I said. "Everybody, get your weapons ready!"

Hayden started rapidly shooting the towers with his bow.

"I got the healing towers," he said.

Paige clutched the baby close, protecting it. Ender started to swoop down.

"He's swooping down! I'm going to attack him!" Ashton shouted.

I blocked Ashton.

"I got this," I said.

I ran as fast as I could and jumped onto Ender's back. He growled in rage and tried to throw me off. I stabbed him in the back and Ender let out a scream.

"Just like your brother," Ender said. "You look so much like him. What a shame you didn't turn out like him, and helped him take over."

"The human world is my home too!" I yelled. "And I'm going to defend it from my brother! And you!"

"Is that so?" Ender said. "Try me."

I had a feeling he was leading me into some kind of trap, so I didn't move at all.

"You don't want to move?" Ender asked. "Then I'll go!"

He turned upside down and tried to shake me off. I could feel the blood rushing to my head, but I still held on firmly. After a while my grip started getting looser, because my head was starting to hurt really bad.

"Hayden!" I cried out. "Shoot him!"

An arrow whizzed towards his body and hit him. But Hayden didn't stop there. He kept firing again and again. Ender turned back over and started flying and dodging them.

I could tell by all of those hits Ender was getting weaker.

"Give it up, Ender," I said. "It's over."

I stabbed him and he started flying lower.

"Fool," he said, weariness showing in his voice. "I can heal! And if I can heal, you'll never be able to defeat me! Never!"

Ender started flying towards one of the towers that hadn't been destroyed yet.

Panicked, I started rapidly slashing at the dragon. I have to kill him before he gets to the healing tower! I thought. Hayden has to shoot it, but he's too away! And if he tried to catch up, Ender would burn him! I guess I'll have to kill him before he gets to it.

I slashed some more at his back.

Then, I heard someone land on Ender's back next to me. I turned around and saw that it was Ashton!

"Did ya miss me?" he said.

"Ashton!?" I exclaimed. "How the heck did you get up here?"

"Well, to make a long story short, I brought a few feet of vines with me in my pockets the day we went mining," Ashton explained. "And I forgot that I had it with me until now."

"You had vines with you the whole time!?" I yelled. "It could've came in handy in... let's say all of our close death moments!"

"Okay, okay, geez," Ashton said. "I admit that was a bit stupid, but Hayden gave me his bow and arrows before I climbed up one of the towers and saved your neck! But I never really took archery before, so..."
