What if, when Scott ran away, he took the Xornoth crystal with him? This gives him no reason to go back to civilization. Two years later though, Scott encounters a small issue that's slowly getting not so small.

(Title from "Villains Aren't Born (They're Made)" by PEGGY Jimmy is going full villain mode after finally snapping due to the disrespect from his 'friends'. (Yes this summary sucks) Basically: I wasn't satisfied with the way Jimmy's lore was going, because the man is too naive and precious to be a villain, so I started writing it myself. Rated mature, because of violence, but it is not that descriptive. Just trying to stay in the WP guidelines :)

The dragonslayers of the realm had slain the legendary Ender Dragon, heightening the power of a powerful, corrupting demon named Xornoth into full, unfathomable might. The eternal winter would slowly poke its tendrils inside of the world, extinguishing its warmth, and serve as the realm's veins, repudiating out the old, summer roots. Xornoth came to Joey Graceffa under the Enchanting Temple of the Jungle and offered him the Crown. This Crown was a reward for Emperor Joey's undying loyalty and for defeating the Ender Dragon and letting Xornoth be free to the world once more. Ever since Joey slid that Crown atop his head, he saw the world in a different perspective. A perspective even more corrupt than ever. His eyes became red. Violent red. Two citizens of the Lost Empire had sensed a shift in Joey's enamour for the devil. It was up to them to save their Ruler, and hope that in the end... Their Emperor would not be lost. Like the Empire he rules. This EMPIRES SMP work is a fanfiction story. I do not own these characters, these settings, and some of the plotlines established by the dear Minecrafts that play the SMP. I am just writing this for fun and to improve my storytelling as an aspiring fiction/fantasy writer. I am a huge fan of the Empires SMP, and I wanted to write my own fanfiction story that takes place in that world. This story takes place after the End Dragon War, and after Joey Graceffa, the Lost Empire ruler who is in love with the server's demon, Xornoth, had worn the given Crown that made his eyes red and made him more bloodthirsty than ever (Episode 17 - Xornoth Gave Me A Gift!) Some of these won't make sense if you are not following the series' entire encompassing storyline, and are not interested in the lore. And I guess I may have tweaked some stuff here for the plot's sake. And pardon if there are some painful grammatical errors and spelling mistakes in this story (English isn't my first language, and I'm still learning!)
