"PAMA's set up in the treasure room, and probably has a bunch of chipped people surrounding it, so we have to plan carefully."

"Right. We also have to watch out for the redstone heart. We need to destroy it."

"Along with using water to our advantage."

Everyone, even the Blaze Rods sat-or rather, stood around a large table, a map in the middle. On the map stood figures representing each person and what they were going to do, along with where to do it. The group needed a plan if they were going to stop PAMA.

Two days had passed since Lukas had returned. The group decided to take some time to rest and get ready. Now it was time to plan. PAMA had made its move. It was time to make theirs.

The plan went as followed: first, Ivor, Axel, and Gil would distract the chipped people guarding the treasure room from the outside. Next, Maya, Olivia, and Lukas would distract the chipped people inside to get most of them away from the redstone heart. Jesse would go with Petra and Aiden to destroy the heart and hopefully end PAMA's reign. Buckets of water would be carried with everyone to protect them from getting chipped.

The rest of the day was spent preparing and going over the specifics of the plan. That meant gaining iron to make buckets and fill them with water, along with materials with weapons. Also, memorizing where to go and what to do.

"Axel, you can come with me," Olivia started, once they had mastered their part of the plan. "And maybe Gil and Maya too. We're going to need some materials."

"Be careful out there, and stay hidden." Jesse said, concerned. Olivia nodded, and led them to the exit.

The trapdoor closed behind them with a creak. Jesse sighed and rubbed her forehead with her hand and unhurt arm, massaging where the ache was to make it go away. It helped, but the pain never left. It seemed like an annoying bug that stung every few moments. She took a look at her other arm, which was bandaged in white cloth but dirty from working. A long scar lay under there, and every time she looked at it she remembered glowing red eyes.

"Jesse!" A voice cried and she turned to see Ivor walking up to her. She snapped out of her daze and took her hand off her forehead.

"Hey Ivor, what's up?" She asked tiredly. He reached into his back pocket, or pockets, and searched until he pulled out a potion bottle. Her eyes widened.

"A potion-"

"I found it in one of my pockets, I didn't even know it was there until I checked." He shook the bottle a little, its substance glowing a light purple. "Invisibility potion. About three minutes. I figured it would make a good contribution to your plan."

Jesse smiled, which she felt like she hadn't done in a long time. She took the potion from Ivor's hand and put it in her inventory.

He nodded and brushed his hands off his ragged coat.

"I hope it helps-" Ivor started, but was cut short by Jesse, who wrapped her arms around him in a hug. His eyes widened in surprise, and then hesitated, before patting her on the back, never really experiencing a hug before.

Jesse let go and nodded.

"Thanks Ivor," she said thankfully, before heading back to the table.

***********************

Ivor had gone to his room and Jesse leaned on the table, looking at the potion bottle. She shook it a little in her hand, and it seemed to sparkle.

"That a potion, Jesse?" Petra asked, heading next to her. She nodded to the warrior.

"Invisibility. Three minutes. Ivor gave it to me."

"That's great!" The redhead exclaimed. "When do you plan to use it?"

Jesse thought for a moment and then shrugged.

"I was planning to use it when we destroy the heart, but I think I'll save it for an emergency."

"Good idea."

There was a bit of awkward silence until Petra spoke up. She looked at Jesse and patted her on the shoulder.

"You know, things will get better." She said quietly, trying to comfort the other girl. Jesse looked at her and sighed.

"I just don't know how it will get better, when everything just keeps getting a hell of a lot worse."
