???'s POV  (AGAIN??)

What...what happened?  Where am I?  Am I...in Heaven...?  I felt a very soft bed under me.  This room smelled really weird, too.  I opened my eyes slowly.  I saw Daddy staring out the window.  "Daddy?"  He jumped up and turned around.  "RACHEL!"  He ran over and hugged me.  "You're OK...you're OK...."  He said over and over.

What had happened?  Where's Be---  I gasped.  "BECCA!"  I rolled out of Daddy's hands and pretty much jumped off the bed, pulling the thingy with the thingy connected to a...needle in my arm.  I sighed.  I'm in a hospital.  There was a bed that was closer to the door...and someone was on it.  I tiptoed slowly to not wake them up.  When I finally saw the face, I yelped.  Becca!  What...how...?

"Daddy, what happened?  Why are me and Becca in a hospital?"  He sighed and sat on the couch near the window.  "The day I told you guys to practice walking to the bus stop one last time...2 weeks ago...you guys didn't come back for almost 8 minutes and...I ran out.  You and Becca were laying on the ground very close to the road and someone was parked in front of you, calling 911.  Once you both got to the hospital, they told me you both were in a coma.  Both your mom and I have been coming every day, hoping you guys would wake up...."

I stared at him in shock.  2 WEEKS????  That...that can't be right! we were only in Minecraft for a few days!  And then...I died....  Wait.  "I died."  Daddy looked at me, confused.  "What?"  I grinned.  "I died.  That's how I came back.  But...Becca...she's in trouble...she's trapped in Minecraft."  Daddy started laughing.  "It's the coma, Rachel.  You were dreaming."  I got mad and stared at him.  "Then why did both me and Becca pass out at the same time?  We were in Minecraft, Daddy.  It wasn't fun.  And Becca is still trapped...."  I turned back to Becca and rubbed her hair.  Please be OK, sister.  Don't die for real.  Please.

(ACK!  Mai feels were activated whilst writing that.  Back to the story!  I hope you're happy now, Mom.  :D)

Nick's POV  (for those who don't remember, he's the leader of the gang)

I continually tugged at the chains holding me to this wall.  But...it was no use.  I sighed and sat down, the shackles clinking.  "Oh, God.  What are we going to do?!  We have no backup and we've been kidnapped by a freaking cannibal!"  I slammed my fist into the wall.  Where's Becca?!  It's been at least 2 hours since Red took her.  And....  I looked at the shackles that had held Rachel and the blood stain on the floor.  The poor kid...what happened to her?  When someone dies, it's just...a corpse.  No light shows.  Did she...perhaps go back to her dimension?

Sky's POV

I pulled Jess up from the boat we used to get here.  Jin said there are no walkers due to the firebomb, but...there's Red's men....  "Well, we should start looking around.  WHERE should we begin?"  Jess asked.  "Ummm...beats me.  I guess we be cautious and just YOLO it."

Jess laughed then stopped abruptly.  "No.  No YOLOing.  We need to be strategic, not...reckless.  Here."  She pulled something out of her bag and handed it to me.  It was a grenade.  "What?  Why are you giving me this?"  She pulled another one out and put her bag back on.  "We need to split up.  If you have found the base, or I have, throw the grenade in front of the building and run like hell."  I snickered.  "Really, Jess?  And you call me reckless?"  "It's the best I've got.  You can also use it if you meet any of his men, or are about to be captured.  I'll assume the worst at first, though.  OK?  Now go."

She ran off to the right of the port.  "Yeesh.  Commanding much?"  I had to admit, though, it was a good plan.  A loud boom would cause the men to take cover, let the gang know we're here, and give us the advantage, as they will be stunned from the blast.

I went to the right of the port to begin searching.  I just hope we don't arrive too late...stay strong, guys.  We're coming.

Becca's POV

I was in a chair, hands cuffed in front of me.  Looking up, I saw Red staring at me, grinning.  I yelped and stood up, backing away.  "Red...."  I huffed.  "I suppose you met them, huh?"  He laughed maniacally.  "Indeed.  And they provided...QUITE useful info."  WHAT?!  WHAT DID YOU GUYS TELL HIM?!!

HAHAHAHA!  He wanted info, we gave it to him.  Namely, Nick's base, their goals...and Ross.

I swear, I'd kill you if I could.

Hey, you were the one who saw the videos.  We just retold those memories to him.

Don't even think about blaming it on me.  I glanced around the room.  2 of Red's men were in front of the door, watching me warily.  Other than them and the 2 chairs, the room was void of anything useful.  Red then stood up.  I hissed at him, trying to make him stay away.  It didn't work.  "Come now, Becca.  Do you want to join us?"  I froze.  What?  What?  What?   We all thought at the same time.  Why would he want me to join?  He knows I'll say no and he has nothing against me to keep me from saying no.

Your friends.

What?

Your friends.  The gang.  You care for them, and we all know it.

I cursed silently.  "And why would you ask me that?  You know the answer as much as I do."  "From your expression earlier, you were talking to one of your alter egos and they told you.  So this, or that?"  I sighed.  "How do you know I won't betray you?"  Red seemed to hesitate, but he then grinned.  "From what Becky and Rebekitah told me, when you're stressed, they have the ability to take over.  I know you can't not be stressed long enough to save your friends.  They'll tell me, and you know it."

D****T!  He has every freaking base covered.  I have no choice.

"Fine."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

O_O  Action here, there, and everywhere!

Now, I need to tell you all something.  I have the whole story written down in a composition notebook all the way to like chapter 18 of the 3rd book.  But the stuff I'm typing?  ...let me just show you.  (Best to be on a computer to see it.  If not, I'll tell you after the visual.)

KEY:  Written version-l  Typed version-I

lIlIlIlIlIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

                 IIIIIIIIIIIIII

                                      IIIIIIIIIIIIIII                           IIIIIIIIIIIIIII

                                                                 IIIIIIIIIIIIII                             IIIIIIIIIIIIII

                                                                                                                                           IIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Basically, my written and typed stayed mostly the same for chapter 1 and 2, but went COMPLETELY different paths afterwords.  Rachel didn't die 'til chapter 22 in written.  The chapters were like 150-250 words long each.

What I'm trying to say is, I'm YOLOing this.  The written won't exactly help me now.  But, hey, at least I can tell people I filled an entire composition notebook with words.  :D

Do you guys think we can get this book to 10 votes by the end?  LEZ DO IT!

That's all I got to say.  See ya next time, Hyperfans!

(I keep finding the same mistakes. I really could not keep the past tense thing going. D':)
