~Jerome's POV~

"Ok, well, now that we've figured out my power, which appears to be electricity, I think we should go find the next person." I said.

"While that is a good idea Jerome, I think that we need to improve upon armor and weapons." Vikk replied. "All we have right now is iron."

"Yeah, ok, fine with me." I said. "Speaking of weapons, has anyone seen Betty?"

"Sorry Jerome, only Freddy is available," Mitch frowned. "We have diamonds, but we may need that later when we need to fight Herobrine. We might have to go to the Nether for that." He continued. Sighing, a thought popped up.

"Wait Mitch! Can't you command objects to do stuff?" I asked. I knew he could, Leaf, the horse Mitch was riding, apparently used to be a tree.

"Yes, he can," Lachlan responded.

"Yeah, I can, why?" Mitch asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well can't you just tell a leaf or something to turn into a sword? Or even Betty?" I asked, getting hyped. Mitch looked at a nearby tree, clearly thinking about something. All of a sudden, one of the tree's leaves turned into a diamond axe. "BETTY!!" I screamed, diving for the axe. The guys burst out laughing as I cradled the axe in my arms.

"Jerome, Betty isn't your child. It's a tool that you will murder people with." Vikk snickered. I think Lachlan was dying on the floor at this point.

"But-" I couldn't finish my come back before a couple of diamond swords fell next to me, causing me to yelp. "BENJA WHY??" I screamed as Mitch chuckled.

"Because," He stated, "Your idea."

"It wasn't my idea to attempt to stab me!!" I retorted. Then another diamond sword dropped down in front of Vikk who suddenly stopped laughing.

"Mate, could you not?" He asked, staring at the sword stuck in the ground in front of him. Lachlan was finally getting off the floor now. We picked up our weapons as Mitch made armor, Lachlan almost getting a concussion when a chest plate fell on top of him. While Mitch was enchanting Vikk's sword, I noticed that he was starting to get weary.

"Biggums, you ok? You look tired." I asked.

"I'm fine, I'm just not used to using my power this much yet." He said

"Take a break then," I pipped.

"Nah it'll get easier as time passes. I'm already getting used to it."

"Ok, I mean, we don't want a passed out Canadian buddy." I replied. He just chuckled in response.

"Well, I mean there's always Rob." Lachlan laughed as Vikk shook his head.

"Guys, it's getting late I think that we should hurry." Vikk said, looking up at the sky. "I don't want to be in a jungle at night. You can't see anything.

"I agree, LE GO!!" I yelled and took off running. I noticed however, that everything seemed to be in slow motion, so I stopped. When I did, everything went back to normal, but I didn't hear anyone's foot steps.

"JEROME!!" Mitch.

"WAIT UP" Vikk.

"SLOW DOWN" Lachlan. What on Earth?  I started running back towards the guys. Everything is slow again!! I thought. Then I saw the guys and stopped running. Now everything's normal!

"Holy cow." Lachlan manged.

"Jerome," Vikk paused, "I think- *breathes* you have super speed as- *breathes* another power."
