Dream SMP / Krew

Yumi is dead. But that doesn't the change the fact that Rainbow is dead. And that Funneh, Connor, Tina, and Gold died in the process. Draco and Lunar were mourning over their siblings' deaths. Even Lunar who normally had such a dark sense of humor.

Alec and Kyran were too since when they were in High School, Alec and Funneh had a crush on each other whereas Kyran had a crush on Gold. Gold was just too blind to see that she liked Kyran. Aly was trying to comfort her older brother but nothing was working. She too was mourning over the death of her two friends.

Kai was getting comfortable around Rainbow and was maybe even starting to like her. But all that stopped when Yumi killed Rainbow. Yumi claimed she mistakened Rainbow for Valerie, but Gold had already explained to her she wasn't. So it was a murder just so she could be with Kai.

But now Yumi was dead. But nothing could change the fact that they were killed. Some tried going to Dream for help. So he could revive them. But the blond refused.

"But why?" Draco had asked once. Lunar was with him.

"I don't want to talk about it alright?!" Dream said, loudly.

"Tell us why!!" Lunar cried out. "Our siblings are DEAD!"

"I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT!!" Dream shouted.

"Please," the black haired Canadian said. "We'll do anything for our siblings to be alive again."

"Why can't Lunar do it?!"

"If I do it, it will involve a SACRIFICE!!" Lunar said. "And a person related to the dead person by BLOOD! So me or Draco will have to do it! And even so, that won't change the amount of Krew members left alive and one will still be dead!"

"Fine." Dream took out his Revival Book. "But I'm warning you."

. . .

The Revival Book and the Death Book. Two powerful objects. One has the power to bring people back from the dead. The other has the power to kill.

But which one is worse? Death, in many people's opinions is much more worse. Revival isn't bad. In fact, it's a good thing. Right?

WRONG

How the Death Book works is that if the owner kills someone, it takes their life too. But the Revival Book on the other hand. If the owner revives someone, they lose their insanity. And very quickly. And it is extremely difficult to help them gain their sanity back...

The Death Book cannot be used against the owner of the Revival Book or a god. It's effects are permanent. Once used, there is no way bring them back. It completely kills them. Even if one has multiple lives, all those lives are erased. It is unsure whether the Revival Book can revive those killed by the Death Book or not.

The Revival Book has been burned but whenever one is burned or destroyed, a new one is formed for that very same person. The only way someone can get rid of the book is by giving it away. But if they die, the possession of the Revival Book is transmitted to the eldest living descendant of that person.

You have been warned. If you find either of these books...Use them wisely...

Hermitcraft / Empires SMP

The blond Hermit now appeared to have robotic parts on his face.

Of course, Sam didn't know anything was wrong.

"I've always been alive, Sam." The Hermit responded.

Xisuma carefully nodded for NPC to keep going.

Sam raised an eyebrow. "This is so weird. You're dead!"

"No I'm not! I've just been building rustic houses!"

"Wait, where did Xisuma go?"

A figure walked closer towards Sam from behind.

Closer, and closer. Sam could feel the person behind him now. "Who are you?"

No response. Sam could hear the person draw their sword.

He felt a sudden pain in his chest, noticing blood was dripping out.

samgladiator was slain by Xisuma.

Sam didn't even notice the previous messages in chat. The messages from when X and Taurtis rejoined.

Xisuma joined the game.

Taurtis joined the game

NPCGrian joined the game

"So, where's the reward you promised me?" NPC asked

"Oh! Yeah," Taurtis said. "Here."

Taurtis handed NPC Grian a pouch of diamonds.

"Thank you. So I hear Grian's dead huh?"

"Yes." Taurtis said sadly.

NPC just grinned. "Awesome! That man locked me in a closet for years. What year is it?"

"2027."

"Wow." NPC said. "Well, I'm free now!"

"No you're not." Xisuma said. "We're bringing you back to that closet."

"NO!!! YOU CAN'T LOCK ME BACK UP IN THERE!!!"

"It's the safest option!" Taurtis yelled.

"NO!!!" NPC Grian ran off, hiding away in the depths of the forest for now.

Xisuma sighed. "One problem solved, another one created. How will we fix this?"

Galactic finished this when I wasn't finished with chapter 21. In case you can't read it...WARNING (For the owner of the Revival Book): Once you go completely insane, the effects are IRREVERSIBLE

- Pleb

So it's too late to write Scarian in this book, considering the author's note warning of ships was already posted, but I think I might be able to guarantee some Scarian in Book 3-

-Galactic

I'm starting to wish that we had a messaging system. I'll just claim a chapter to start up on what I want to write into the story. And yes Night is the red teletubby. I still have "Homeless Teletubby sitting in my head as one of my favorite way to address Dream when he's being difficult in terms of being likeable. It's hard to find good in someone when they have a big track record of crime against humanity that most of the smp don't come close to breaking, but I've always tried.
