Squids POV

We had all the Eyes Of Ender we needed. As well as a few spare to actually find the stronghold. Jeez...All of this...Will come to an end soon. I remember when we first came into this world...And how terrified we were. We would spend what seemed like years staring up at the plain black sky, sitting on the edge of our bed, listening at the horrible moans of zombies. Now...Now the real world seems as terrifying as this one. All I want to do is to back home...With Stampy. We were already planning to move in with each other but...But ever since he confessed his love to me...I have a feeling it will defiantly be happening.

I glanced over at the others though the glass pane that was situated by the newly upgraded iron door. Stampy was splashing around in chest high waters while Cherry and Pearl were happily skipping around in the more shallow parts. For some odd reason I felt myself tearing up. It wasn't like I was upset or anything...

Sighing, I walked back over to the main crafting section of the house and started to brew some potions. The current potions I had were: 5 strength, 3 instant health, 6 regeneration, and 1 night vision potion. I only had one because to be honest...I suck as brewing. Redstone, fine. Building, fine. Farming, fine. But freaking brewing is my lowest point!! Ugh...

Once I had finished brewing over a million potions I turned my attention to crafting the weapons we needed to actually kill the dragon. Bow, arrows, TNT, Redstone, lever, and swords. Quite simple things for something so big and dangerous. I wonder what defeating the dragon will be like. It's quite scary in game-mode, so in real life...It sent shivers down my spine just thinking about it.

"Squid!" I glanced over my shoulder at Pearl and Cherry, who were dragging a very wet Stampy behind them. Before I could even get a word in Cherry marched over to me, grabbed my wrist and pulled me outside into the little make-shift garden me, Stampy, and Pearl built. This 7 by 7 block place was very special to me as it was the place when...When he confessed his love to me. "Listen, Squid. I don't mean to be a total prat but Stampy can't kill the Ender Dragon. He can't even swim to the Stronghold, which is underwater!"

"So? I'm not killing this Dragon without Stampy! Or you either if you object to that! Look, I know he can't swim, and I understand that, but still! We don't have to get back to the real world straight away. We can't wait a day or two for him to learn!" I shouted, not caring if anybody heard me.

"I'll kill the Dragon on my own then! I don't need Stampy at all!"

"Well go on then! You defeat the wretched Dragon on your own!" At that moment, I only just saw the door wide open. And standing on the first step leading into the garden, was Stampy himself. Tears silently slipped down both sides of his face. The loud clatter of metal as he dropped his iron sword broke the deafening silence between all three of us. I could see the look of regret fill Cheers face. "Stampy? Y-You okay?"

"Am I that worthless? Am I Squid? Please just tell me..." Stampy whimpered, more tears flowing out from his eyes.

"No...No you're not Stampy!" I said truthfully. But before I could even say the second word he stormed off, slamming the door loudly. I glared over at Cherry, who looked stricken with fear. How the heck could she just say something like that? I understand she was mad and all, but still!

Stampys POV

The air was cold and thin, which made it hard to breath in. Or it was hard to breath as I was a mixture of extreme anger and sadness. I wiped one of the slow-drying tears from my face and sat down on one of the nearby stone blocks. There were quite heart-stopping moans coming from around me, saying that mobs were nearby. Honestly, I didn't care that much. All I cared about...Is getting out of here. And going back to my old house, with Squid, and go to the convention we were originally planning to go to. Now, it may have just ended. Who knows how long we've been here.

Sighing, I stood back up and wandered some more. I knew I was lost but I didn't care at all. Maybe if I just died here...It would be much better for everybody. That's when I saw something in the corner of my eye. A thin, black, obsidian looking pole. Just...Sticking out of the ground. It had vines growing all around it, symbolising that it's been sitting there for a long time. Along with the vines, there was also a hole going straight down onto a deep pit. Curiosity taking over me, I jumped down it, making sure to land on the ladder that was around around halfway down.

What I saw silenced me. Just sitting on the stone floor was the End Portal, with two Eyes Of Ender sitting in it. How could I just stumble upon this? I had to tell the others...Even-Even if they left me behind. At least I was the one who showed them this!

"Stampy!" Something grabbed me from behind, making me scream. "Jeez, calm down." I turned my head around slightly. It-It was Squid! There was a massive purple and black bruise covering half of his face. "I-I thought I lost you! But then...I saw you wander into this hole so I followed you so..."

"It's fine...Anyway, you go back to the house to grab Cherry and Pearl, then I'll-"

"You'll battle the dragon with us. No matter what anybody says." Squid said, a small smirk appearing on his face. I couldn't help but copy his actions.

Hope you enjoyed! Sorry if it was shorter than usual! Anyway, the song is just a stupid song which I thought...Stampy and Squid would make if they were friends when they were around 15 or so.
