It was chaos. Jesse was hanging from a tentacle inside the Wither Storm, holding Reuben in one arm, and hanging for dear life in the other. Another tentacle went into the Storm, squirming around, searching for Jesse. It found Reuben and tried to get a hold of him. He squealed and strugged and squirmed around.
"Reuben! Hold on, buddy I'll save you!" Jesse said. She swung herself over to the tentacle that was holding Reuben and stabbed it with her sword. They were falling, but then Jesse grabbed hold of another tentacle.
"You okay, Reuben?" He oinked and looked up at her. Jesse smiled. They had been best friends forever, and through this whole journey, this brave little pig has never left her side. "I love you, Reuben old pal" He oinked cutely and her.
The tentacle started shaking and waving around, trying to fling them off. It eventally stopped but still tried to get rid of them.
Just then, Reuben was knocked over and was falling into the Abyss.
"NO! REUBEN!!" Jesse screamed. Reuben squealed, falling, falling, falling, until his cry faded away. You know that term, 'When Pigs Fly'? Well, I bet you would be hoping this could happen, but sadly, this isn't the case where happy endings save the day in the most tragic moments.
"NOO!!" Jesse screamed once more. She became angry and grabbed her sword, chopping the tentacle in half. She ran to the Command block and stabbed it. The Wither Storm was defeated.
She landed in the water. Her friends ran up to her, excited. Her only thoughts were about Reuben, and only Reuben.
"Where's Reuben?" She asks.
"I thought he was with you!" Olivia cried.
"Oh no." Petra said.
"Hey guys," Lukas said, "do you hear that?" There was a distant sound of squealing around them.
They followed the noise and found Reuben, lying on the ground, weak, tired, and dying.
"Reuben..." Jesse whispered.
"Oh no!" Olivia gasped.
Reuben was whimpering and looked up at Jesse. Jesse was worried. She was tearing up.
"Stay with me, buddy!" Reuben lay his head down, becoming weaker and weaker.
"Reuben, no!" Jesse said.
Reuben kept whimpering. "I'm here for you, buddy. I'm always here for you Reuben."
He started getting weaker, and more tired. He whimpered and squealed more.
"I love you, Reuben!" Jesse said, crying. Reuben looked lovingly at Jesse.
At that moment, he laid his head down, and stopped whimpering.
Reuben was gone.
He poofed and turned into a raw porkchop. Jesse picked it up and started to sob.
"He was a good pig." Petra said, putting her hand on Jesse's shoulder, in an attempt to comfort her. A crowd gathered around them, mourning the loss of a hero.
They built a memorial for him, with a banner with his picture and name on it.
This was also the day of and ceremony naming them the 'New Order of the Stone'. Jesse decided not to tell everyone the truth about the previous Order of the Stone using a Command Block.
