"I don't mean to steer away from our current situation," Zak says, looking around at the Team and the region leaders at the meeting table, "but I've always wondered where you've all come from."

"In what way?" Adam asks.

"I was born in Minecraftia, brought up to one day become a region leader. But never have I known any of you guys. It's like you just suddenly appeared."

The Team look around nervously at each other, wondering whether they should tell him.

"Well, Zak, when I said I had friends who could help, you probably didn't imagine that I would have... these people." Adam says, "You thought I'd have some Minecraftians to help, well the truth is I don't."

"They're not Minecraftians?" Brett asks.

"No, we're not." Mitch says, "We're not from around here."

"Then who are you?" Zak asks, "What are you?"

"To explain that we need to remember back almost 30 years. When Herobrine attacked for the first time." Adam says, "Well... for reasons we're not quite sure of, Herobrine transported me into another world in a different universe, so I would forget about the fact that Minecraftia ever existed." Adam opens up one of the books in front of him, "It's known in these books as 'the real world'. There is no magic and you can only live once."

"And... I'm guessing that's where you all come from?" Zak responds.

Everyone in the Team nods apart from Jason.

"So one day I returned with the Team under the powers of Herobrine, but none of us knew the truth of course." Adam pauses for breath, "The first time Herobrine used us, we were teleported into a world in Minecraft, not Minecraftia."

Azalea butts in, "For some reason we were teleported to a world on my laptop, which just so happened to run the Team Crafted mod."

"Which reminds me, we then move onto how and why I chose these guys to help us." Adam says, "In our world, we formed a group called 'Team Crafted', we all recorded Minecraft videos together and we were all great friends. We all lived in the same house. Anyway, shortly after I met Aza we all got teleported into Minecraft, with the help of Seto because he was working for him.”

None of the region leaders responded to that. Instead they sat in silence, trying to take the information in.

“We’ve managed to escape from Herobrine twice now, whether Seto has been able to distract him or if he’s just fled the scene.” Adam adds, “But I figure that we can’t carry on like this. Herobrine is a persistent threat and I guarantee that he is the one behind all this.”

“But why?” Leon asks.

“I think I might know.” Jason answers, “Last time, a few years back, Herobrine said ‘Minecraftia and the real world must not collide, for terrible consequences will occur.’ He said that he was trying to stop it from happening, but by kidnapping Sky he then realised that he’d only sealed the two world’s fates.” Jason looks down upon the table nervously, “He said he was trying to protect us from a terrible fate, trying to stop our two worlds colliding.”

“Wait a second.” Zak says, he takes one of the books and flicks through the pages, “What if we imagine for a second that Herobrine isn’t behind all this, and this is purely the squids’ plan. What if, the squids want to cross over to the real world to cause chaos and these ‘terrible consequences’ that Herobrine was talking about?”

Azalea leans forward, narrowing her eyes, “Then where does the Sky Armour tie in with all this?”

“Well…” Zak replies, “Perhaps the squids plan to have a battle, without the Sky Armour, the king could potentially… err…”
