The War Of Worlds

The Cottage in the Trees

In a flash of purple, Bert, Steve and Midday had arrived at the treehouse.
Steve looked at it in awe, it was like a little cottage, but with ladders, vines all over the house making it camouflaged and if you were from a distence, you would hardly notice it.
It had a little observitory and smoke coming up from a little chimney.
It also had a hidden vine shaft which took you to the main deck.

It was way better than that cramped little inn in that small fort, Steve thought.

"Home sweet home." Bert said adding, "Check this out!"

Bert teleported to the top deck and shouted down,

"Steve go forward ten blocks, then go five blocks to the left, and behind the shrubs is a little button, push it, then vines will come down so you can climb up, when you get to the top, grab the lever and the vines will go back up."

"Ok!" Steve yelled back.

He did as he was told, and climbed up the natural ladder, pushing the lever to the left and the vines retreated back.

"EMMELIA! BONES, GRUNT!" Bert shouted into the front door, "I'M HOME WITH A FRIEND!"

Silence... Steve was starting to get creeped out.

"Uhh Bert? Who are Bones and Grunt, and where are they."

"Bones is a skeleton and Grunt is a zombie, don't worry, they have turned from their evil ways. When they appear I'll tell you why they have turned," Bert said "Come this way."

Steve followed as Bert grabbed his sword that was resting on his back, and made sure their house wasn't invaded, you never know when evil arises. Bert rounded the corner of the kitchen and saw a paper note stuck to the DispencerFridge.

Bert,

Gone raiding for more supplies and food,

Be back soon,

Emerlia, Bonez and Grunt.

"Ok they will be back soon, I'll show you around the house when I go put Midday in the stable," Bert said "Help yourself to some food and other items here, and oh, your room is next to mine down the hall to the left."

"Thanks so much Bert, I just might go to my room and relax if thats OK with you?"

"Ok, cya in about half an hour!" Bert shouted down the long corridor.

The door shut and Steve slowly walked down the corridor looking at the artwork that was hung on the smooth wooden walls. He particually liked the one of a Skeleton, probably Bonez with two iron swords in his hands trying to slay a fish, a Zombie, Grunt with a iron axe and a iron helmut, a girl wearing a dark purple hoodie with black pants and blonde hair with a one diamond sword and one iron one, draping from her belt, and Bert. Bert was fishing with a rod and all of them were hunting a small pond for fish, they all were looking majorly happy.

Steve smiled and turned around the bend to his room.
As he entered, it was quite a small room, 5x5 with a bed next to a gaping window and a chest. Steve looked out the window and saw the sunset, he thought, this is so beautiful. And stood there yawning at it. The pink light covering the large jungle, it kind of made everything, more, delicate! It was so pretty!

Steve set himself down and peered in the chest. There was a bow, twenty-four arrows and a iron sword.
As he left the tiny room, he walked up the stairs and into the observetory. It was a big orb of glass, it did look very cool Steve said to himself.
He sat on his bed and watched the sunset. His third night alive.

"HEY STEVE!" Bert shouted down the hallway, "COME AND MEET MY FRIENDS!"
