Sapnap's POV

Sapnap was collecting gold for trading in the mesa when he found a red gem.

"Could this be another one of the element orbs?"

Wilbur's POV

Wilbur killed the last few cod in the river while testing how long he could hold his breath.

40...41...42..Ouch!

A blue rock shone above his head. He had bumped into it.

45...Ooh! Coo-arrrggghbblblblblblblbbbb...

"aaaaHHHHH!"

"What??"

"I'm fine, I'm fine!" Wilbur emerged, gasping, from the river. Now let's GO!"

"YAYYYYYYYYYY!"

Dream's POV

"We're of to go to the Netherrr!! The wonderful Nether of-"

"Death? Dumbness? Extreme tempratures??"

"Death is a good one!"

"uuuuuggggggghhhhhhhh......."

As the gang entered the rather large obsidian portal, Dream - or Clay - was lost in thought.

Could this be the work of something bad? Maybe... no, not him. He's not here anymore. I think-

'-EAM! Time to gooooo!'

Dream was snapped out of his mind by George.

"Come on Dream let's go! Everyone's already in the Nether!"

With a sigh, Dream entered the portal.

BZHOOP-SHHHHHHHHHH.

~

SHHHHHHHHHH.

"Where ARE we?"

"Looks like the warped forest? Okay, everyone split up into pairs. Holler if you find a fortress."

Sapnap's POV

Sapnap jumps through the warped wart bushes and suddenly comes face to face with a hoglin.

"AHH!"

Holding the red gem in front of him, he prepares for impact...until a bright jet of flame shoots out, incinerating the hoglin.

"Mmm, pork!" says Tommy, looking through the bushes.

Tubbo's POV

Wilbur's gem had gone pale. Tubbo looked at it, and compared it to his, which looked a lot darker. Could it have something to do with the fire aspect of the Nether?

Dream's POV

As he neared a corner, Dream caught sight of black walls.

A bastion! Wait, is that a fortress right next to it? Awesome! Now i'll have to stay quie-

"DREAM, LOOK!" George shouted, extremely loudly. "A FORTRESS-ohh shoot."

Silence.

George and Dream froze. Maybe the piglins hadn't heard them?

 Suddenly, a dozen crossbows pointed at them and fired.

Phil's POV

"Phiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil, do you think the others have found anything yet??"

"Well, Tommy, I don't-"

GeorgeNotFound was slain by Piglin Brute.
