Teen Team Crafted

Guess Who's Back

Sky's POV

I climbed up on a dirt block so everyone could see me.

It's now or never.

"Um...hi, everyone."

Everyone went quiet, and over ten million heads turned to me.

Great. Now everyone was staring at me. I gulped, but I hid my nervousness and shouted. 

"Today marks the day we've been waiting for since this army started! We formed this army to rid all of Minecraftia of the enemy who mercilessly and unjustly destroys everything in it's path!"

I could see the players closest to me, and some had revenge in their eyes, ready to avenge their families, or friends. The Brotato, who his friends had just recently decided to start calling him Tyler for some reason, was one of those people.

Of course he did. His entire village was dead because of them.

"And today we will complete our goal! So, that being said," I say, ready to abandon all formality that I had for this speech, "Who's ready to kick some squid butt?"

Over ten million players cheered.

"Then let's do this!" I said, and jumped down off of the dirt block I was standing on, into the crowd. I was standing in the middle of Team Crafted, and we looked at each other and nodded. I saw A and her friends behind us, and they were all smiling. 

I had a split-second to think. How many will die because of this? Will anyone survive?

My thoughts are drowned out by ten million players yelling and running into the ocean, myself included.

**********an hour later***********

"This is weird." Mitch said.

No kidding. We had been travelling around the ocean for at least an hour, and not a single squid.

"Do you think they found out? Maybe they're all at their base." Jerome suggested.

"Problem: we don't have a clue where their base is." Ssundee pointed out.

"Well, what are we supposed to do? Turn around?" Quentin said.

"We can't go back now." Ty said, a grim look on his face. "But I can't say I like this. It's making me nervous that they're nowhere to be found."

"Yeah." I agreed. Then a thought came to mind. "Do you think it might have something to do with..."

"Darklox?" Ty cut me off, and I nodded. Ty frowned. "Maybe. Don't really want to think about that possibility."

"You and me both." Mitch muttered.

I hoped it wasn't Darklox. One, because there might be ten million of us, but Darklox could apparantly take out four people in less than thirty seconds. And two, because I really didn't want to see Mitch's reaction to his little brother being...possesed, I guess, by Darklox.

I don't think Mitch could be able to hurt Shane, no matter what's wrong wth him.

But, of course, my hopes were wrong.

Out of nowhere, an arrow pierced through a recruit in front of me. A missed shot. He started sinking to the bottom. He was dead. No question about it. If the arrow didn't kill him, he would drown in the water.

The girl next to him screamed. "Brian!"

"Everyone, under the water, now!" I shouted as loud as I could. "Quentin, try to see if you can get him!"

Quentin nodded, but his face looked grim, like he knew the player wouldn't be alive when he got to him.

I wasn't going to let anyone go with out trying to save them.

I took a deep breath, and allowed myself to sink a few feet under the water, so my head was completely covered. A few arrows sliced through the water, each narrowly missing me.

Whoever it was, it was from the air. And it seemed determined to put an arrow in my skull.

I couldn't hold my breath forever, and I was a faster swimmer when my head was above the surface. My best option was to go to the surface and swim as fast as I could.

Please keep focused on me. I thought. I had a pretty good idea who was targeting me. Better for him to be targeted on me than to kill multiple others.

I swam upward, and as my head broke the surface of the water, I saw him in the air, standing on a pillar of blocks. 

Shane. 

But it wasn't Shane.

It was Darklox.

In case you didn't see my message on my profile, here's my problem:

My grades have been slipping from A's to B's, and my parents think it's because I spend way too much time on the internet.

They've decided that I can only be on the computer for an hour every day on school nights, and an hour is not enough time for me to write a chapter, so you will be getting a crap ton of chapters on the weekends, but hardly any on the weekdays.

(And none on Tuesdays. Hey, Supernatural lasts an hour! XD)

So...yeah. I apologize that I will not be updating as rapidly.

:(

But I still love you guys, and stay awesome!!!! :D
