Emily's POV ~

I happily jumped out of the cave as soon as I saw daylight. I hated confined spaces and I knew Alexis wasn't a big fan of them either, but she would never admit it to anyone. The others followed me out and I watched as Daisy's face lit up at the sight of Simon hauling the diamonds out. Suddenly though her face twisted with fear and she shouted out, "Help! A spider has followed you out of the cave!," I turned and quickly pulled out my bow. However, Simon had already pulled out his sword and killed it. I shrugged and tossed Daisy the gems as she fawned over Simon. "My hero," she said happily and I rolled my eyes.

"So how about that armor," I said with a laugh and she quickly ran off to begin making it. "Simon's gettin' it at least," I say, smirking. Simon's face instantly goes beet red and the others laugh.

"You're pushin' your luck," he grumbles. We all turn our attention to the innkeeper as he begins to talk again.

"If you want to help out some more I heard the reverend needed some help" he suggests. and we all grin. "You can find him in the church." We thank him and make our way over.

"Do you think there's a crypt?" Simon asks in the headpiece.

"Probably," I respond, shrugging.

"Poor John lost his son, Israphel, a few years ago to creepers. It's a shame and John hasn't been the same since."

"Did the old guy just say Israphel!?" Eve exclaims to us and we all freeze. Apparently Eve had been the only one listening to the old man's rambling.

"Israphel?" I say to the old man."When did he die?"

"Many years ago. Why? Have you heard of him?"

"Years ago?!" Simon exclaims. "We saw him earlier this day!" Peculiar gives him a weird look at this.

"B-But... No you must be mistaken, I saw his body with my own eyes." He says. We all shared a glance and frowned.

"Let's just go see the Reverend..." I say,changing the subject. Peculiar nods and the six of us push past him and into the church.

"Hello there travellers! Welcome to Saint Creepers!" The man I assumed to be the Reverend exclaimed when he saw us.

"We heard you were in need of some help?" Simon said and the Reverend began nodding.

"Oh yes! You see my house was overrun by monster a two weeks ago and I lost my possession!"

"Possession, singular." Jacob said and Alexis cracked up.

"It was my favorite bible you see! Will you retrieve it?" He asked us and I almost felt bad for the guy, but I had a nagging feeling that something was up. I didn't know why, but I just didn't trust the man.

"Of course we'll do it!" Alexis said with a cocky smirk. "Easy peasy,"

"Thank you travellers! My house is the one on the hill! May Notch be with you!"

Jacob's POI ~

Something was bothering Emily. I had known her for as long as I can remember and I can tell when she was worried. I fell back to walk with her as we made our way up to the house. "Hey is everything all right?" I ask her and she turns to me in surprise.

"Yeah son, everything's hecks to the chill!" She said to me and I frowned.

"I know somethings bothering you," I said and she frowned.

"It's just that this guy seems really suspicious. It's just a hunch though! Besides what's the worst that could happen? We can respawn if we die so it's no big deal." She said with a shrug and I rolled my eyes at her.

"You could have just told us sooner. What was the worst that could happen?"

"I don't know it just didn't seem important enough to warrant me wasting my breath telling you. This stuff is valuable!" She exclaims and I let out a snort of laughter.

"You're an idiot," I say and we both hurry to catch up with the others.

"You have got to be kidding me!" His house is THAT one!?" Eve Says and we follow her finger until our eyes fall onto a mossy cobblestone house with fire in the windows.

"Why does the house always have to be scary," Simon whines and Alexis scoffs.

"You guys are total wimps!" She says, but I can tell she doesn't mean it. I can tell Alexis has warmed up to Lewis and Simon and I have too. I hear a loud groan from beside me and Emily groans out.

"Why do we have to climb stuff! This quest is way too much effort. I mean I'm okay fighting things, but that hill is steep!" Everyone laughs at this and we begin the short trek up the hill, Emily complaining all the way up.

A/N ~ Ayyyy I made a cover. I drew it myself, but im not too happy with how it turned out.
