Into The Game [FINISHED]

44 ✣ Notch's Fortress

We were back at the Order of the Stone's temple. Above it, was Notch's Fortress. All along, they had been living underneath the creator the whole time. The temple was even more worn down than before.

"Ivor, did you know about this?" Soren questioned, eye's narrowed.

"Well obviously not, his fortress moves, this map is the only way you can find it" Ivor replied in a snap.

"Jesse!" a voice called my name. It was Axel!

"Axel!" I shouted in relief. Ellegaard and Petra followed closely behind him.

"Axel! Petra! Ellegaard! Thank goodness you're okay!" Olivia exclaimed.

"I wouldn't say okay..." Ellegaard murmured. She was covered in wounds and was limping. Beside her, Petra looked terrible. Worse than the last time I'd seen her.

"Petra..." I murmured.

"Jesse..." I could barely hear her. Her voice came out raspy and it looked as if everything she did caused her pain. She collapsed onto the ground.

"Petra!" I cried out. I rushed up to her. Her eyes opened slightly. Ellegaard held onto her tightly.

"Jesse... Axel... Olivia... Ellegaard... Soren... Ivor..." Petra rasped "I'm sorry..." She fell limp.

"Petra! No!" Axel cried out. A tear slipped down my face. Petra was dead. We weren't fast enough. Lukas covered his face with his hands and sobbed.

"Petra... no..." I murmured. Olivia, Ellegaard, Ivor, Gabriel, and Soren couldn't say anything. A roar filled our ears. The Wither Storm.

"Go! Go! Go!" Ellegaard shouted. We all began to run. Axel was no where to be seen. I violently turned around. Axel was on his knees, Petra in his arms.

"Axel! Come on!" I shouted.

"We can't just leave her here!" Axel replied.

"Axel! Please! We can't loose you too!" Axel slowly got up and caught up to us.

"Here!" Soren handed each of us a Ender Pearl. "Throw it up to Notch's fortress and don't miss!" Ellegaard gave her Ender Pearl back. "E-Ellegaard?" She simply smiled and said.

"Go, I'll try to stop the storm" Ellegaard ran off.

"Ellegaard! No!" Olivia cried out.

"Go!" Ivor shouted and we all threw our Ender Pearls up. We landed with a thud. We made it. Axel was holding Reuben.

"I can't believe it..." Olivia murmured "Petra and Ellegaard are gone..." I felt more tears streaming down my face. I collapsed on the ground in front of Olivia and hugged her, sobbing.

"Hey! You!" a voice shouted. Two people stood in front of us. One was a man with blonde hair and a beard and mustache, he looked a little like Soren, or maybe Lukas? The other was a girl, she had long black hair.

"What are you doing here? State your purpose!" the girl shouted. She held two gold swords as did the man. They both wore gold armor which glimmered in the sun.

"I-I..." I stuttered, my face was soaked in my tears.

"We're here to see the creator" Ivor told the supposed guards.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't Ivor, the creator's little potion maker" the woman sneered.

"It's good to see you too, Isa" Ivor rolled his piercing blue eyes. "Listen I-"

"You know what he said Ivor," the man interrupted "you know you can't get your job back."

"Yes, Milo, I understand, it's not about the-"

"Also, you've been replaced" a figure approached the guards.

"Ivor, meet the new potion maker, Aiden" Aiden walked out.

"Wait... Aiden?!" Lukas gasped.

"It's nice to see you again, Lukas" Aiden smirked, Maya and Gill walked out beside him.

"Thank goodness you're okay!" Lukas exclaimed.

"Come with us" Isa ordered. I was still on the ground. Aiden grabbed my arm and pulled me up roughly. Maya pulled Olivia up. The Ocelots and the two guards led us to Notch's fortress which was made out of gold and iron. They led us inside. We were now in a throne room. On the throne was a man. No features were noticeable as it was dark in the room and he wore a hood which hid his face.

"Isa, Milo, Blaze Rods... who did you bring?" Notch questioned.

"Blaze Rods?" Lukas questioned.

"Shut up, Lukas" Aiden whispered.

"My name is Soren" Soren began but was interrupted by Notch.

"Silence..." Notch brought up a screen. "Hmm, the Order of the Stone and the Dead Enders."

"H-how did he...?" Olivia questioned in a whisper.

"Soren, Ivor, Gabriel, Jesse, Lukas, Olivia, Axel, and Reuben" Notch boomed "it's a pity your friends Magnus, Ellegaard, and Petra couldn't live to see this place."

"Notch, I do not wish for my job back, we wish that you delete the-"

"The Wither Storm? Ivor, I know everything that goes on in this puny world, by brother Notch he-" he stopped mid sentence.

"You're... you aren't Notch... aren't you?" Ivor questioned. I looked over at the Blaze Rods and the guards. By their expressions, they looked scared.

"Hmm, it's about time you knew..." he removed his hood. This wasn't Notch at all. He had pale skin and wore a blue shirt and jeans. He had brown hair and his white eyes glowed.

"I should have known... Herobrine..."
