I woke up at breakfast. My eyes blinked open as I saw a jailgaurd throwing a raw chicken and a piece of bread into my cell.

"Hey!" I groaned, sitting up. "Hey, can I talk to Notch?"

The guard ignored me and began to walk away.

"Wait! Wait! I need to speak with Notch!" I called after him. He continued to act like he couldn't hear me.

I slumped against the wall, having no idea what to do. How was I supposed to find ben in this place?

For the first time in my life, I felt completely helpless. My team and Gregoe were out all alone, Rax was no where to be seen, and Ben was hidden somewhere deep in this fortress. The next time I'd see him would probably be at our execution in two days.

These thoughts in my heart, I began to slowly drift off to sleep.

...

Gregor was worried. How could he not be? Ender had gotten shot and captured by none other than Preston. The boy had helped fight against Herobrine with the HH (they'd rescued him from Herobrine's fortress) and he'd died alongside Gregor and Jane on the battlefield. Now Notch had brought him back too.

Gregor hoped this was the bad clone of Preston, the one who thought Notch made him powerful, like the other version of Gregor.

But this also meant something else of equal importance. Jane can come back, Gregor thought.

After Ender was taken, Gregor waited until morning to tell the team. For some reason, he just didn't want to talk about it just yet.

So when he did tell them, they were mad.

"We need to go after him!" The one named Maria pleaded. They were walking through the jungle to the Mountains of Moran.

Gregor shook his head. "Let's not get distracted. Anyways, we're heading in the right direction right now. I think we need to study that stubstance. The ones found in the Mountains of Moran. ML Exma."

Braden furrowed his brow. "Why?"

"The Warriors of Notch use it. And we haven't even met them, so it might be good to get a leg up."

Bradley nodded. "That makes sense. But how are we going to study this substance if we don't even have it?"

Gregor grinned. "That's where it gets fun. We're going to break into the Warriors of Notch's secret labs."

...

I was woken to someone jostling my shoulder.

"Wake up, you scum!" A distant sounding voice sneered.

Blinking my eyes open, I saw "Greg" leaning over me. Letting out a yelp of surprise, I stubled back and hit the wall.

Greg straightened up. "Finally, you've awoken." He glanced outside of my cell when a guard clad in gold armor stood (a Warrior of Notch, I guessed) and waved his arm. The guard nodded and silently shuffled away.

"Now that he's gone," Greg said, "I can tell you what I'm here for."

I sat up a little straighter.

"Notch has accepted your invitation to speak with him," Greg began.

"Really?" I exclaimed, leaping to my feet.

Greg held a hand up. "Not because he wan't to speak with you," he said adbruptly. "Because he wants to show you something."
