Ty's POV

Darkness. That's all I could see. Images of what had just happened replaying in my head, and I hated it.

Finally, I saw a bright light under my closed eyelids and jolted awake with a yelp.

I was back in the alter room under the statue of Notch. The alter was back in the same place and looked as though it had never been moved.

I frowned 'Have I failed?' I thought 'Am I not worthy?'

Until I heard a groan beside me and looked around.

Everyone else was here, just passed out.

Some of them were frowning slightly or had full on tears falling down their faces, some were even thrashing around like they were having nightmares, then I realised that they probably were, they were facing their fears.

I heard and yelp and turned to see Jason shoot up, panting heavily.

"Jason?" I asked.

He looked around wildly and then sighed with relief "Thank Notch, it wasn't real..." Then he looked at me and asked "You ok Ty? You're crying..."

I put a hand to my face and felt that it was wet with tears. "Yeah..." I said shakily as I wiped away the tears with my hands "I just-"

I was cut off by another yelp, this time coming from Ian who shot awake, immediately checking that his sunglasses were on, which they were. He sighed and leaned against the alter "Thank Notch that's over."

"Hey Ian." I muttered.

He looked at me and gave a grim smile "Hey Ty... Well, that was the worst sleep I've ever had in my fricken life."

I smirked and nodded "Definitely..."

Sometime later, everyone also began to wake up.

Quentin woke up with a yell. He looked around frantically for a moment also feeling his chest for some reason, before he sighed and rubbed his temples "Next time one of us gets possessed and we've gotta go to some temple to fix them, remind me to stay at the castle...." He muttered.

Bella sat up with a yelp and looked like she was trying to fire at someone with an invisible bow before she was fully awake. "I'm am never doing that again..." She muttered.

Right after she said that, Seto woke with scream. Looking around wildly and panting heavily. He was right next to me so I put a hand on his shoulder to calm him "It's ok." I said gently.

He slowly calmed down and looked at me, nodding, but kept checking himself to see if he was alright, mainly checking his hands for some reason before he sighed and lay back, saying nothing.

Mitch, who had be thrashing around a lot woke up with a terrified yelp, as did Jerome, they both panted heavily and looked like they were gonna be sick.... Until Jerome actually ran to the front of the temple and threw up in a bush...

He came back, wiping his mouth with his sleeve muttering "Next time I see that Steve guy, I'm gonna whack him in the head with Betty for making us go through that..."

Mitch just moaned and put his head in his hands wiping off several tears that had fallen down his face in his sleep.

"You ok Biggums?" Jerome asked walking over to him.

"Yeah. I'm fine." He muttered, but it was clear he was lying, none of us were 'fine'....

"So..." Bella began "We all passed?"

"Or all failed..." Quentin sighed "We're all back at the alter, and I don't see Notch anywhere."

"That's what you think, my dear amphibian..." A deep voice resounded around the room.

"Finally! Someone gets it right!" Quentin cried happily, then he paused, just realising that the voice had come from nowhere. "Wait..."

Then a bright light appeared in front of the statue of Notch, it was so bright that I had to look away and cover my eyes.

When the light died, I turned back and gasped at what I saw...

Where the light had been now stood two people...

One of them was Steve, who had a slight smirk on his face, but his eyes held a troubled look.

But I was mainly focused on the other man, he looked normal at first, he had a simple brown shirt and light grey jeans with simple black shoes. He was bald with eyes the colour of coal and a long black beard. He also had a billowing white clock lined with gold that seemed to fly in a non existent wind.

But he radiated power, yet also kindness. Yet even without the power, we could all tell who this man was...

The God and Creator of Minecraftia and Ruler of the Aether.

Notch...
