It took a few minutes to walk there, but eventually Hero and Allison made it to a decently sized room made of stone bricks, some of which were cracked or mossy. There were even some vines hanging from the ceiling.

There were four portals; one in each corner. One, Allison recognized as the Nether Portal, in the far left corner. The one next to it, she felt like she was familiar with it, but she couldn't remember how or why. It was the End Portal, in the far right corner. Another one, she had no clue. It was made of water, and pure quartz with chiseled quartz at the corners; it was The Aether Portal, in the near left corner. 

But the only one Hero was concerned about was the one in the near right corner. It was made of changing prismarine, obsidian, and nether bricks, with sandstone leading up to it. It had a waterfall of a foreign pink liquid as the entrance. The prismarine, obsidian, and nether bricks were sprinkled evenly around the waterfall. To Allison, if looked like a nice place was on the other side. But she had no idea that her perception was wrong.

"This," Hero said, after Allison finished staring at the portal, "is the portal we will go through."

"What is it called?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, does the portal have a name?"

"I don't think so. It leads to Thunderus, so I just call it 'the Portal to Thunderus.' Sounds stupid, I know."

"Thunderus?" She said it wrong.

"Yeah. You pronounce it thunder-rus. The -rus part sounds like 'rust', but without the -t sound."

"Oh."

Footsteps were heard behind them, along with the banging of plastic. Hero and Allison both turned around, to see the figure coming up behind them.

It was Splinter carrying the tub with the decorations in it. "Sorry I couldn't come faster, I wasn't sure if you took the decorations with you." He set the container down and dusted off his hands.

"It's no big deal, thank you, Splinter." Hero replied.

A moment later Splinter left to do his normal Splinter things, and Hero picked up the tub.

"Y'know, Mom does a lot to make this happen every year."

"She does?"

"Mhm. She even invites her enemies to feast with her, which is surprising. And somehow fights don't break out."

"Oh wow."

Hero breathed. "Well, here's Thunderus."

They both went through, and a blinding light met their eyes. It was a little nauseous, like the Nether Portal, but the blinding light was the most bothersome.

A few seconds passed, and Allison found herself in a lit room with the same portal behind her. Her dad was next to her, still carrying the tub of decorations.
