Chapter 3 - Sisters again

Petra lead Jesse into a deep cave lit with several torches on the walls. Petra walked very confidently through the cave but Jesse and Rueben were far behind her a little over whelmed by what just happened. "Not that I'm scared or anything but how far is it till we get to this thing you want to show me?" Jesse asked a little shakily.

"Careful Jesse. I don't want people to call you a wimp." She said slowing down.

"You know, I've been in a cave countless times." She said crossing her arms.

"Maybe so," Petra said turning to her "but have you ever seen a wither skull?" She pulled out a small black skull from her inventory.

Jesse was mesmerised by it but she was more amazed that Petra actually showed her it. Normally, Petra wouldn't show or tell her anything she had, found, traded or earned. "Where, how did you get that?" Jesse asked almost lost for words.

"The nether of course!" She said putting it back in her inventory "Or else there would be a lot more people who had these things." She said Starting to continue walking through the cave.

"So you risked your life for that dusty old skull?" She asked catching up to her.

"No, I risked my life for what I'm going to trade for the skull. There's this guy I'm meeting at EnderCon, he's trading me a diamond for it."

"Is it really worth THAT much."

"No, it's actually worth more but like you always say 'kindness is the best option' " she said glancing to her younger sister.

"Wow"

"Wow, what?" Petra asked.

"In a whole day you killed a wither skeleton..."

"Several Skeleton, the skull is a hard drop." Petra interrupted.

"Right, right but still. All this trading and getting the items to trade, it must be pretty cool being you."

"You know you can come with me." Petra told her, which shocked Jesse a little.

"Really!?" Jesse exclaimed.

"Of course! I kinda have to let you anyway, you are my sister." Petra joked. "But I ask you to do these three things. First do not talk. Second don't make eye contact with the man. And thirdly try to keep up with everything. In case you want to be a trader too. It would be interesting to have some competition but I won't go easy on you, even if you are my sister."

Jesse looked to her older sister and smiled then immediately turned to a frown. They approached an area with a bed and a chest. Jesse automatically knew that this is where Petra actually lives. Petra kept looking at Jesse's sad face expression, one that she hadn't see since she was 14 and Jesse was 11, when she noticed her wooden sword. "Hey Jesse" Petra said and Jesse looked at her "You're wooden sword isn't the strongest when it comes to defence, so..."

"You're giving me a better one?" She interrupted.

"No, but you can make one. Use the items in the chest." She said directing her to a wooden chest by her bed.

Jesse walked up to it and grabbed 2 stone and a stick then placed it on the crafting table in the correct places and the sword was made. She picked it up and stroked the blade then put it on her back. "Pretty sweet huh?" Petra asked as she turned to her.

Jesse nodded and then the two sisters headed out the other entrance. They turned their attention to EnderCon when they heard the sound of fireworks. Excitement filled Jesse's mind when she saw her build in a all its glory in the middle of the entrance to EnderCon. "Wow I build won. WE FINALLY WON!! We beat those jerk Ocelots!!" Jesse yelled with excitement.

Petra looked at her sister the she said "Jesse I know some of the Ocelots may act like jerks, especially Aiden when he hits on you but there's one Ocelot who's far from a jerk. I'm sure you know who I'm talking about."

Jesse knew immediately who she was referring to. "Lukas?" She asked and Petra nodded. "There is no way that guy is a..."

"Really nice guy." Petra once again interrupted. "That's why I asked him to..."

"To what." Jesse asked when she realised what her sister almost reviled.

Petra smirked at her then said. "You'll find out soon."

Jesse's curious smile immediately turned into a disappointed frown, Petra immediately noticed it. "Jesse what's wrong?"

"It's.... nothing."

"Jesse, you're my sister. I know when you're feeling down."

Jesse looked up to her sister and gave in. "It's just... Ever since mom and dad.... You know, well we have kinda... Grown apart... I know you promised them you would take care of me but...."

"I've kept my promise. Here we are and you are healthy, un-scarred and the splitting image of mom with dads hair." She said grabbing Jesse's hands.

Jesse pulled her hands away and looked to Rueben. "No, it's more than that... " she sat on the edge of the bridge and started petting him "I want us to be sisters again... Real sisters.... Not this sisters one day and not knowing where you are the next... I want to do more stuff together... But I get the vibe you don't want to..."

Petra looked at her sister in awe. Then she realised something that she didn't want to find out. Her little sister was no longer her little sister, she had grown up and she had matured a lot in the long time they had been apart. She sat beside Jesse an gave her a faint smile. "I do want to be sisters again. Your right I have been a terrible sister.... So... After this next trading meeting I promise that I will have one or two days when I am doing my trading business and the rest I'll spend with you and your friends" Jesse looked to her sister and started smiling again. "But you have to try and talk to Lukas, and possibly become friends. Ok?"

Jesse didn't want to talk to Lucas but she decided she would because she knew Petra was always right, though she hated to admit it. The two girls stood up and smiled at each other, happy they finally became sisters again. They were about to head to EnderCon when....
