I did it! :D there's a drawing of Kat right there. I'm doing Jake next, and then Infinity :}

~<>~

"Are we there yet?" Abby whined.

"We'll get there when we get there!" I said.

"I'm hungry." Gordon whined.

"You could've eaten five minutes ago!" Jake face palmed.

"But I wasn't hungry then!"

We were walking in a forest. It wasn't super crowded with trees, so it was pretty easy. We've been walking for about an hour now.

"Don't make me turn this trip around because I will!" Jake said.

Infinity laughed. "You all are like a big family."

"What does that make you?" Abby asked her.

"The dog." Jake said.

"Dude." Infinity warned, growling.

Jake chuckled. "Abby, we should be arriving tomorrow, midday. Gordon, wait until we stop again. Kat- oh wait you didn't do anything."

"For once." I grinned.

"Guys, look!" Infinity gestured front of us.

From behind the trees, I could make out sand. As we got closer, it became a desert. A desert right on the edge of a forest. It stretched wide, as far as I could see. And I couldn't see the end in front of us.

"Deserts. Bad." Gordon noted.

"Why?"

Abby looked at me as if I was crazy. "Hardly any protection from a crazy amount of mobs. Only the bravest villagers make homes in deserts."

"We have to go through, though." Jake squinted at the map. "I don't think it's too big. But if we go all the way around, it'll take a few extra days, and we don't really have that time. The fastest way is through."

"I'm sure we'll be fine." Infinity smirked. "I'm an excellent archer. Oh, and I guess everyone else is good at fighting too."

As we ventured ahead, going into the desert, I couldn't help but think if this was a bad idea.

~<>~

"THIS WAS A BAD IDEA!" I screamed, carrying Gordon's rag doll body between Jake and I.

"Who's idea was this to go into the desert in the first place?!" Infinity said, as she shot arrows.

I glared at Jake, who sent me an exasperated look.

Abby, who was ahead, gasped. "Guys! Look!"

Okay, wait, I'm missing an important part. Let me go back.

~<>~

We were taking a peaceful stroll through the hot desert. The sun was shining, the cacti bloomed. And by that description, I mean that we were barely making it through a hot furnace where the sun laughed at us and the cacti tried to kill us. Nevertheless, Gordon kept telling jokes, and we kept going on. But the sun was starting to set, and the sky started turning pink.

"Should we build a house?" Abby asked.

"No. Better to forge on." Jake answered.

"Dang."

"Just stick together, watch each other's backs." I ordered. "We got melee and ranged, so no creepers should be able to get close, as well as any other mobs." I blinked. "Woah. That was bossy."
