That's what the Shadowbyte Army had told its soldiers for years. That their loyalty and skill granted an unforgettable legacy after they died. That following their orders would bring them prosperity while appeasing their superiors. And everyone believed it. Why would their saviors lie to them? After they saved their lives in the first place? It's what a group of eight of those soldiers believed. When they were brought together to take over a single World, occupied by a small group of people known as HermitCraft. When they broke past its firewalls and set foot on its soil. But when their plans go horribly wrong and they're taken hostage by their perceived enemies, something begins to stir inside of them, one by one. They start to question their faith and loyalty to the Shadowbyte Army, to it's powerful leader and founder, Ecryptos. Everything they had ever known is put in a brand new light. And they soon realize that they are part of a much more sinister plot... But will they agree to break their oath to stop it once and for all?

Your rank. Your life. Or that is what Adam always thought was the straight-forward road of life. However all of that changed when he happens across a mysterious necklace that instantly connects with him. And unfortunately for those entrusted with the necklace, Adam is now the caretaker of the necklace and must be brought back to the AHD, the place where heroes are born, and the place the necklace was created. Adam has long since been an admirer of the AHD. He's heard the stories of the great Players. Players have the rare gift of a respawn, where they can die over and over again and live. While Humans like Adam only have one life. But since finding the necklace, Adam is shocked to discover that the one who created it, created it to grant normal humans like him, Player like abilities. For the first time ever, Adam has the chance to follow an impossible dream. A dream only accomplished by a chance encounter. For Adam, this meant a grand adventure as a hero himself. But things aren't all that they seem in the Association of Human Defense... Everywhere Adam seems to go he finds even the people he looked up to aren't all that great. Adam discovers a world filled with corruption and an ancient war that has been hidden from the public for centuries. Adam is faced with reality where he doesn't know who's just and who's not. As the number of problems keep piling up, he's no longer sure if they are worth the effort to fix. Art and Story (c): CATtheDrawer/WrittenDarkness

Max found something he is sure no one has ever seen or even heard of existing. A place as black as pitch, a place where up is down just as much as it is up, a place where everything seems to vanish, then reappear again. By accident, he falls in while showing a few friends. He doesn't know how long it's been but he finds himself falling back through the hole he fell through. With no idea what has happened he arrives home only to find it's been many years since he "vanished". Even though he receives a warm welcome home, things are too different to be normal. A dark curse lies deep within him, slowly spelling his doom as time ticks by. Max doesn't understand what has happened to him or why, his memories are broken and shattered, but he remembers one voice. The voice of a woman. Her soft and sweet voice in a world of darkness, she sings of her home and tells him his destiny lies there. The only thing Max understands is that by finding this woman, he may just get the answers he craves, only IF he's willing to risk the danger of being in the middle of a war.

Wielding the power of magic makes you a sorcerer. Being sorcerer is a crime against the kingdom of Emedo and its ally, Keuta. When Seto finds out he belongs to this race of sorcerers he realizes his life will never be the same. He'll always be looking out behind him. To keep his secret hidden, Seto must act like everyone else and spend one year in the Kingdom's armed forces. A task required of every young male. But there are rumors, rumors that the Prince of Emedo works in the army himself. As battles begin to break out against the Emedo kingdom, Seto does the unthinkable and save the Prince's life, exploiting that he is a sorcerer. Being an honorable man the Prince promises him anything in return. But instead of the well needed protection Seto could hope for, Seto asks for something else all together. Something that forces him and new friends to go against laws and royals in attempt to stop a grave mistake from happening. Though, how long can Seto just turn a blind eye and pretend other problems don't exist, how long will he let his fears take over? How long can he ignore being a sorcerer?

In the search to recover his magic, Seto discovers a daunting secret of his past and the true nature of his sight magic. These truths do little to encourage him as he falls deeper and deeper into a web of fear. It is clear that the King of Emedo wishes for his head, however the reason behind this desire has yet to surface. Seto and the many friends he has made on his journey thus far are in a race against the growing strength of the Emedian army and the underlying darkness of magic. If Seto falls to Emedo, he will surely die. Should he succumb to the allure of his magic, Seto will likely never surface again as the same person he's always been.

The King of Emedo is dead. Or will be. Adam Azure will kill his father to end a 4 year war but remain scarred by the blood on his hands and his father's last words. For Adam, there was no last father-son moment, nor any reconciliation, only fears, and doubt settle in this young to be king's heart. Due to this experience he gains powers that let him do what nearly everyone had given up on. He frees Seto from the Nether after 4 years of solitude. With the end of this war, a new era of peace is established and Seto Magi, along with Max and Jin, are welcomed home. Home to a place where the new generation of Kings and Queens work to create a realm where sorcerers, morvics, & humans may live in peace. But Seto sees a different future. A future that lacks the suffering magic has brought to the realm, and for the 6 years he has lived in the Nether he has mastered his magic to almost terrifying levels. No more will people have to fear the cruelties of magic, no more will the grief, guilt, and pain he has felt in the Nether will haunt him. For when he is done, the Realm of Ethereal will finally be at peace in an existence where magic should never have existed. However, Max Myth only wants a life away from all the problems he was thrust into. He never asked for some dark curse, or never ending nightmares of the void, or to get tangled up in the gods' mess. The moment he recovered his memories and stopped Jin from making the worst mistake of his life, he just wanted to return home, meet his parents, and live a life with his new but old friends. Yet he notices Seto is not acting right despite only meeting him a few times and despite his desires for a normal life, Max can't just leave when this nagging feeling keeps bothering him. Otherwise, he fears he'll regret it. With power comes great responsibilities that Adam, Seto, nor Max can ignore. Soon their Realm will be shaken to its core and one Goddess will work to bring back what she lost by taking what was never hers.

He was quiet. He was reserved. He was shy around others but full of potential. All he needs is a little push to let others see it. Yet, he still asks himself how he got to be in the same clique as the Top-Listers. He had never thought too highly of himself, always thinking of coming up average at most. He knew that he was smart but didn't have any friends to compliment him or allow him to relax around. That was until he was put on a team and made friends. Until they became close and defended each other. Until he messed up and had to run. Until they helped him escape. And until they went with him to The Outside.

The story is more or less based off of the old times when all of these YouTubers recorded together and did the Epic Jump Maps and played on servers together so... not much is based on recent things.

*Original book, description and plans by Littlewolf65* The year is 3021. And the world has become a technological utopia. Technology has advanced far beyond we had ever thought. Virtually anything is possible now, for magic and science have become one. Wars rarely occur anymore and are quickly resolved. Poverty and crime is at an all time low and peace reins supreme. If it weren't for one small problem... Viruses. Codes, no... Monsters living inside our systems that can resume a human form, but lack compassion, remorse and strive to perform one goal. Cause Chaos. They feed off our codings, our files, our life and seek to destroy all we have worked to achieve. To combat these viruses, a new system was born. A group of people that are the perfect merge between human and coding. They are called Glitches. Their main goal? Wipe out all viruses. So what happens when Adam Dalberg, the most skilled glitch of all meets Alesa? A virus unlike all others... A virus that actually has compassion? That can love? Will this romance turn out all right in the end? Or will it just be a system failure?

The year is 3022. And although our world is a technological utopia, things aren't going too well. After the virus attack on the city's servers, the Glitches have been struggling to repair the systems while keeping the viruses at bay. And things are only going to get more complicated as old friends return, new faces are seen, and a whole new problem arises. Are the Glitches going to be able to band together and overcome the viruses like they have before? Or are they going to be too divided to stand against the next wave of attacks? And which side is in the right?

The army of Team Crafted have only one goal: To restore peace to their conflicted land. But after a trip to the snow country goes wrong, Adam starts developing magic that he shouldn't have. And it's killing him. But the cure might only make everything worse. A Skybrine fanfic. But it's not like the others.
