The meeting

(After 4 days)

Morning. School. Sadness.

Today. Friday. Happiness.

First lesson: Math.

Err...Like I said, math is good and bad at the same time. We still have homework and things like that, but Mrs. Ferbot mostly doesn't care. She said she'll give us good grades if we say that she's good teacher if we're asked, but we still have to learn a few things in case we're asked.

Back to the story...

Minecraft. I can't stop thinking about how amazing that world is. Brad and Icy seems like nice people. Well, I think that Icy still hates me a little. Endie is a funny person...

He's an Enderman, but in that world he can be called a person? He acts like one...

Anyway, I didn't saw Alex or Husky thought. Husky is kinda the general of the army so I may or may not see him so much, but I know Alex is big deal, and I'm a little scared to meet her. In the normal game, Alex and Steve are the main characters, so I assume that she's very powerful in that world, but Steve character is older than Alex character, so he may be the powerful one...

I think he is because he has the Command Block.

UGH!

Too much thinking! And I wasn't even at the school, to have a reason to think.

The lesson started and I was sitting next to the Taylor "Okay, class read the chapter 3, I don't care" Mrs. Ferbot said reading a magazine. Some really started to read the chapter, but I just opened the book at that page.

"So what was that all about?" Taylor asked me. I looked at her, confused "What do you mean?" I asked "The bracelet" she said, rolling up the sleeve from the sweatshirt I'm wearing, to reveal the bracelet "What's about it?" I said "When Syria said about your bracelet you covered like it was some kind of big deal" she said.

"I don't know what you are talking about. She pointed out the bracelet like it was a girl one. I didn't want anyone to laugh about it" I said and it was half truth. The bracelet looks a little like a girl's one because of the gem.

"Then why it was glowing?" she asked "It wasn't!" I said fast. Shoot! Now I made it more suspicious "My eyes are in a really good shape. I know what I saw" she said looking straight in my eyes "It was from the sun?" I said but it sounded like a question "It wasn't a sunny day like today" she said. It's like I'm trying to pour water in a bottomless bucket. Impossible.

"Maybe you thought you saw something? Anyway, I don't know what you're talking about" I said with a shrug. She sighed "I get it. A secret. When you'll want to tell me, I'll listen, but you could simply tell me it was a secret" she said, looking sad, then she started to read the chapter "It's not a-I mean-Wait! If you understand, then why you interrogate me?" I asked.

"Good. Now I know for sure it's a secret" she said, looking at me with a smirk "You just tricked me to confirm your theory?" I said shocked "Yes. But yeah, when you'll want to tell me, I'll listen. We're friends for what? A week? Too early for secrets or reveals" she said "I, uh...You're complex. I thought I'm the complex one here" I said "You can't get everything you want" she said with a shrug. I rolled my eyes.

Today, being Friday, were the easy lessons, but the PE class, the last class, was the worst. Dodgeball is the teacher's favorite sport.

And today: Boys VS Girls. I know what you think, 'Well, you can hit Syria in the face'. Ha, ha, ha...no. Yeah, she's one of 'those girls', but everyone have their secrets. Her not-too-secret? SHE LOVES DODGEBALL. She has that evil smile when she hit someone in the face with a ball "Okay, kids! There's one rule-" the teacher, Mr. Murph said before being cut by a boy "No eye poking!" the boy said "No...well, yes. Don't hit the girls to high..." he said and pointed to his chest "...and the boys to low. I don't think need to show what I meant by that" he said.

(After 10 minutes)

There were only me, Lukas and 2 boys. For the girls were Syria, Taylor and another girl with glasses, who just took out a boy by hitting him in the arm "Three vs three. This is getting intense" Mr. Murph said. Just for you! I was mostly dodging, only Lukas was actually throwing. He just took out Taylor by hitting her in the stomach, accidentally "Sorry! I was aiming at Syria!" he said "It okay. I really wanted to taste the lunch again..." she said sarcastically, walking to the bench and holding her stomach.

Syria was looking at him dreamy while he was talking, so I tried to hit her, but I hit the girl with glasses in the back of her head "Sorry! I was aiming at Syria, too!" I said and she waved me off while walking to the bench. Syria took out the last boy, and now it was me and Lukas VS her. She accidentally took out Lukas by hitting him in the leg, and she started to apologize "I'm so sorry babe. I was aiming at the failure" she said. I rolled my eye.

"One VS One" Mr. Murph said "Not for long!" Syria said then she threw the ball at me. Summary for what happened next: she threw, I dodged, I threw, she dodged.

"Someone took someone out. It's getting boring" Mr. Murph said annoyed "I'm trying! But he's moving around" Syria said grabbing another ball. Just before she wanted to throw her ball I aimed at her with another ball.

Everything was in slow motion. She threw her ball, and I prepared to dodge and threw my ball, BUT the gem had to glow just then. From the shock, when I dodged her ball, I threw the ball in that girl with glasses head again "Hey! I'm out already! Are you trying to get bonus points?!" the girl said, holding her head.

"Sorry!" I said looking at her.

...Big mistake...

Even though Mr. Murph said to don't do it, Syria did it. She hit me...'to low'. I don't think there's a word to express what noise I made.

"Ow..." everyone said and winced at the sight. I feel on the floor, holding my...lower part, in pain.

"Well, she won...and someone make sure that boy is alright" Mr. Murph said rubbing the back of his head. Lukas and Taylor rushed to my side "Are you okay...?" Lukas asked "I see the Light..." I groaned, still on the floor "Don't go to the Light!" Taylor said holding my shoulders "That's not helpful" I said slowly getting up "Are you okay...?" Lukas asked again "I think I'll live..." I said sarcastically. I covered the bracelet and we went to the lockers to change.

We arrived home, and I went to my room fast. Lukas didn't even ask anything this time. Well, Syria hit me in the lower part with a ball, so I think he doesn't need an explication of why I don't want to talk with him now. I grabbed a paper and placed it on top of the crystal. The password was 'The meeting'. I touched the crystal "Say your password" it said "The meeting" I said.

Weird yellow light, vanishing, falling, forgetting I don't know how to fly with the Elytra. I tried to hover but it didn't end well. I hit the ground hard. I think I should bring a pillow with me next time. I looked up and I noticed that I was near the 'kinda village'. I looked around to see if Icy or Brad were nearby, but they weren't. I decided to find them and see if there's something special to do.

After some stupid walking to the 'kinda village' I decided to ask Endie first because he may know. While walking I realized that I still have the ring, and that I had it in my world, too. But, Taylor or Lukas didn't even ask about it? I mean, your twin has a new ring and you don't even ask from where, or what's with it? And you interrogate someone about a bracelet but about a ring? Now I feel weird.

Anyway...I walked to the forge "Hey, Endie? Have you seen-""DODGE!" I didn't even get to finish because Endie pushed both of us to the ground. A spear was shot to where I was (and it could hit my head) "What was that?!" I asked shocked "My attempt of making a Spear cannon" he said and got up "Which trying was that?" I asked as he helped me up "...the first..." he said sheepishly "I can see..." I said "You wanted to ask something?" he asked fast, changing the subject.

"Oh, yeah. Have you seen Icy or Brad?" I asked "They're at training" he said like I know where that is "And that is...?" I said "Oh, right! You're kind of a noob around here" he said and laughed a bit. I narrowed my eyes at him.

"I know enough to not get myself killed" I said "You forget what happened a few moments ago?" he said with a smirk "You forget whose fault was?" I said with a smirk too. He didn't know what to say "Let's just show you where are Icy and Brad" he said and walked out the forge, with me behind him. We were in front of a wall "That's a wall" I said confused "What's BEHIND that wall is important" he said and elbowed it. The ground shock for a moment and the wall opened "They're training with Husky. He's a little arrogant, so don't go all sassy on him" he said. You don't just tell someone to not be sassy!

Does Endie like me? No, not that way! The 'FRIEND' way. I don't want to get on his bad side. If I was on his bad side, that spear would've killed me by now.

I nod at him and walked inside. The place was...wow. It was huge, giant, enormous, (other synonyms for 'big'). On a part were people practicing parkour, on a part were people practicing archery, on a part were people fighting melee. There was a second level where a few were learning how to use an Elytra.

An arrow come flying to me. I summoned the shield and blocked the arrow "Sorry" someone said. It was Brad "I was aiming at someone and I saw you and...well, you know the rest" he said flying to me "Why's everyone trying to hit me with something today?" I asked no one in particular. Brad looked at me confused "Don't ask" I said. First it was Syria, then Endie and now Brad.

"I thought you're the best archer?" I said, making fun of him "Maybe your head was in the way I was aiming, have you thought about that?" Brad said "Brandon? Why aren't you training?" I heard a General-like voice behind me. I turned around to find a husk, who is obviously Husky. Wow, the way this world looks like, this cartoonish-realist-animation-like way made even a Husk look nice. Wait! Cartoon, dead, nice look, gay characters...What's that? Steven Universe?

Anyway...Husky was looking at me sternly "Um...hi?" I said with a nervous smile. Hi?! REALY?! "Husky, this is the boy me and Icy told you about. Alvin, Husky. Husky, Alvin" Brad said. Wait, did Husky called him Brandon? I'll ask about it later. Husky expression changed to one of curiosity and little amusement, but still a sternly look was "So you're the mysterious boy that helped in protecting the 'S' village?" Husky said "Yes..." I said. He walked around me in circles. Why do I feel a déjà vu? Oh, right...Endie.

"I wish I was there to see those spiders jumping in lava like some stupid noobs..." he laughed a bit then looked at my hand "I see Endie gave you a shing" Husky said "A what-now?" I said confused "The ring" Brad said "So the Elytra came along with the ticket for this world?" Husky said from behind me "Yes..." I said. I think the only things I said are 'yes' and 'hi'.

"Do you know how to use it?" he asked "Believe me, he doesn't" Brad said rubbing his back. Husky raised an eyebrow "Don't ask" Brad said "Well, I think he must learn...AND because you're the best flier, Brandon, you have to show him how to" Husky said. So Brad's name isn't Brad, and Brandon. And Icy's name isn't Icy, and Mia. Speaking of Icy...

"Where's Icy?" I asked "Mia? Ah, my best fighter? She's right there, practicing parkour plus fighting" Husky said, smiling, pointing in a direction. I looked at what he was pointing and I saw Icy.

She was...well, doing parkour plus fighting. She was moving so fast that I couldn't make out what she was doing, only a few jumps, cool fight moves, and some hurt person holding a part of the body she punched, or kicked in her way.

She's awesome, okay.

She noticed us and decided to fly to us.

"Hey, guys. Hey, Alvin" she said, her spear became small like a knife and she put it in one of her belt pouches "Hi" I said "Brandon over here, is supposed to show me how to fly with an Elytra" I said and Brad groaned because I used is real name "Just for you to know: It's gonna hurt" Icy said and winked. I already feel the pain.

(After some painfully tries of flying)

"Wow, you're really bad at this" Brad said giving me a bag of ice "In my world we stay with our feet on the ground" I said, taking the bag of ice, placing it on my shoulder. When I left this world last time, I've got the 'shing', but I hope I dont get the 'fail fly' mark, too.

"Then try to see the thing from this world's point of view" Brad said "Like a square?" I said and he looked at me confused. Right, a square head is normal for them "Never mind" I added.

Icy flew fast to us "What happened, Icy?" Brad said "Alex" she said "She gave us a mission?" Brad asked "No...she wants to see you" she said looking at me "Me?" I asked. I should be glad or scared?

"I should be glad or scared?" I asked "Both...But don't worry, she won't kill you" Brad said "Maybe" Icy said, earning a glare from Brad "It'll be fine" he said and placed a hand on my shoulder "Bad shoulder! Bad shoulder!" I said fast with a pained look on my face and he pulled back his hand "Sorry" he said.

(After a few minutes, in front of a big door)

I knocked on the door and waited. After a few second it cracked open a little. I took a deep breath and walked in. No one was inside. The Throne Room was big with gold, wood and some iron.

But then I saw, near the throne, a silhouette floated down next to it. A beautiful woman that looks around...30, with white skin, long orange hair, a long green dress and a crown with a blue crystal. That must be Alex.

"You must be the 'mysterious boy'..." she said in a sweet calm voice with a smile on her face. I nodded my head nervously "Don't be scared. I'm not gonna hurt you" she said and walked to me "What's your name?" she asked "A-alvin..." I said "Well, Alvin, I'm Alex, but I think you already knew that" she said and chuckled "Yeah...You're kind of a big deal" I said.

"So they told you the story?" she said, her eyebrow raised "Brad and Icy told me...kinda everything" I said "Brandon and Mia. I see..." she said and walked to the balcony. I followed her.

"Did you make any friends?" she asked me, holding the balcony's fence "Yes. Brad, Icy and Endie...I think" I said "Mhm" she nodded "Why everyone call Mia, Icy? Well, except Husky" I said.

Alex sighed "She wasn't always that cold. She was a happy child till...her parents died...killed by Endermen right in front of her. She wanted to help them, but she saw what she shouldn't..." she said "She then started practicing to became a great knight like her mom" she said "That's sad..." I said.

Endermen...Endie...high-five..."That's why Endie's trying to make Icy high-five him?" I asked "Yes. He hopes she doesn't hate him because of what happened to her parents..." she said.

"What do you know about Endie?" she asked looking at me now "I know that...he doesn't like the opposite gender" I said and she nodded "But he's a little...crazy. Weird inventions..." I said laughing a little "Don't make fun!" she said serious and angry, looking at me. I looked scared again and her eyes widened "Sorry. I forgot you don't know his story" she said "What's...his story?" I asked. She took a deep breath.

"Endie was one of Steve's best blacksmiths, being one of the only who's able to make weapon like your shing, or Icy's spear, or...anyway. He had a weird behavior, but at least he was doing his job. More and more Endermen noticed him acting weirdly around the males of his species, but didn't said anything about it. Steve noticed that, too, but like the Endermen, he never said anything. Endie told one of his best friend why he was acting so strangely. He told him that he felt an attraction towards the males Endermen. His friend swore to not say a thing..." she took a deep breath again "But he still told Steve, didn't he?" I said before she could.

"Yes. Steve hated the idea of a 'faggot' on his army, so he put some mobs to kill him..." she said and she gripped the balcony's fence harder "They beat him and left him to die on a forest. The forest was nearby a village I was in at that moment. Not alone, obviously. I was with the old General and a few soldiers. I noticed something between some trees, so I decided to walk to it. I know it sounds stupid to walk to some random thing in a forest, but I'm still glad I did it. There was Endie, laying on the ground, all beaten up. He was laying on his own blood...with tears in his eyes, but he was still breathing. The General pulled out his sword. Endie wasn't facing us, but he heard the sword andstarted to shake in fear 'Kill him' the General said. I stopped him,and told him to send someone to bring us something that we could use to cary Endie to the palace. They looked weird at me, but they still did what I said. At the palace, the best doctors cleaned his wounds, made sure he didn't had any broke bone or anything dangerous. He was unconscious when all this happened. The next day I walked in the room and sat next to his bed. He woke up and groaned in pain. When he realized where he was and that I was next to him, he gasped and tried to teleport. He glowed purple for a second but nothing happened. He just groaned, holding his head. I asked if something hurts, how he felt, and his answer was why. Why he was here. Why I saved him. I told him that I found him in the forest, and he told me what happened. I told him that I'm not gonna hurt him and that he can stay. It took a while for him to accept, but he still did it. It took a while for the people to get used to him, but they learned how...Since then, Endie is helping us" she finished the story.

"Wow..." I didn't know what to say "I know. It happened 40 years ago" she said "40?!" I said shocked "Mobs can't die from ageing. Ages pass but they look like...a 21 year old person" she said "And you have..." I asked "More than you can ever imagine. It's confusing because I look young" she said.

"Brad and Icy told me already that Husky was exiled because he didn't want to kill a human" I said "Well, there are a few details missing, but yeah, that's all. He doesn't have a tragical backstory like Endie" she said "How's your world like?" she asked. How to explain...?

"Less magic, more technology" I said "Brandon told me you know enough about this world for someone who just landed here" she said "I learned about...a way this works using...technology.It's too complicated, so please don't ask" I said "If you don't want to, okay" she said.

"There's no way Steve can be stopped?" I asked "Well, it's a way..." she said mostly like it was to no one in particular. I noticed the gem was blinking "Oh, it's time to go" I groaned, looking at it and I looked at her "You can tell me next time" I said. Weird yellow light, vanishing.

I appeared back in my room "What a day..." I said.

AN: That was the chapter. Hope you liked it.
