Chapter 4 - EnderCon Trading

They were about to head to EnderCon when they heard a zombie groan and a creeper hiss. They looked left and saw a hoard of monsters heading towards them. They tried to head to the cave but monsters were coming out of there too. "Jesse we need to do something fast, or were Zombie chow! What do you suggest?" Petra yelled at the top of her voice.

Jesse thought for a second. They could either attack the mobs and possibly die or jump off the bridge into the water and definitely live. "Ok. Let's Jump." She said turning to the bridge.

"3. 2. 1. Jump!" Petra said as the three of them jumped into the water.

Jesse tried her best not to scream and be brave, like Petra but her stomach was flipping over and over again. They eventually landed in the water but Jesse belly flopped into it. "It burns. It burns."

"Jesse you jump into the water. Just shake it off and when we get to land I'll sort it out." Petra said as she started swimming to land.

When they reached land Jesse sat by Rueben while Petra rubbed cream on her arms and legs. When Petra was done, they got up and headed to EnderCon. When they arrived they saw Olivia and Axel looking up at their build. They turned around and quickly noticed Rueben, Petra and Jesse approaching them. "Hey Jesse and.... Petra!?" Axel and Olivia said surprised.

"What shocked I'm actually spending time with my little sister?" Petra asked crossing her arms.

"A little, you're always on your trading meetings." Axel said.

"Which we have to leave for in a minute." Petra said turning to Jesse.

"Oh, ok." She said then turned to her friends.

"So you're finally doing stuff together again?" Olivia asked.

"Well yeah."

"Good, I hate nights when I hear you talking to yourself about this." Olivia laughed "Anyway I'm glad you found Rueben and that your going to spend more time with your sister. If you need us I'll be at the Redstone stand trying to find a new hopper."

"And I'll be doing whatever." Axel said as they both ran off.

"I have to say. Your friends are quite, funny." Petra smiled "Let's go."

They headed to a dark alley way but before they entered Petra stopped her. "Remember what I told you?"

"Don't talk, make eye contact and pay attention." Jesse scoffed.

"Yes and try to look intimidating." Petra suggest.

"Oh like this." Jesse scrunched her eyes and lowered her eyebrows and made a frown.

"I'm less scared of you than scared for you.... Just make a natural face" Petra said as her and Jesse started heading into the alleyway and Rueben waddled behind them. When they reached the end of the alleyway they noticed that there was nobody there, just a few posters that were doted all around EnderCon. "That's strange this is definitely where we planned to meet." Petra said looking around.

"Maybe he meant another alleyway or he's just late." Jesse suggest to her confused sister.

"Maybe" Petra said touching her chin. "Ok change of plans, I'm going to look for him, you're staying here." Petra said heading out but Jesse stopped her.

"But what if he comes!!" She quickly asked try to stop her from leaving.

"Then stall for me."

Jesse was suddenly alone with Rueben. She was a little nervous hoping that Petra would come back soon but instead a strange man appeared out the shadows. He had long dark hair a beard and he wore a green top and trousers with a belt that had a gold buckle with lapis in the middle. "Who are you!? What are you doing her!?" He angrily asked.

"Um..... I'm" Jesse was never good with introductions.

"Get on with it I don't have all night." He hurried her.

"Jesse. I'm Jesse." She answered after taking a quick breath.

"Well Jesse, I'm supposed to be meeting with Petra not whatever your supposed to be." He yelled.

"Petra brought me with her.... And she thought this was the wrong place.... So she told me to stay here... While she looked for... You" she struggled to say.

"How do I know I can trust you!?"

"Well.... Um...."

"Ivor" the two heard Petra's voice as she approached them. Jesse felt relieved when she arrived because she didn't know what to say next.

"Ahh you've arrived." He said. "Might I suggest choosing someone else to come with you the next time you have a trading meeting."

Petra was angered by this but she didn't show it, instead she tried to make him take it back. "Well if you've got a problem with my little sister, then maybe we should just call this whole deal off and I can find someone who doesn't have a problem with her."

"No!! Um... Your sisters lovely, glad you brought her." He said though, he didn't mean a word of it.

"That's what I like to hear." Petra smirked then she quickly bought out the skull. "Here's the skull."

Ivor took the skull and inspected of any scratches or bruises. "I'll take that diamond now." Petra said.

"Take it you've earned it." He smiled gesturing to a chest in the corner.

The two girls looked to the chest and opened it without hesitation. They were surprised when they didn't see a diamond but rather a piece of lapis. They looked us from the chest and noticed Ivor was gone. "Of all the dirty, under handed tricks!! I can't believe that guy pulled one on me." She screamed.

She was clearly angry and when Petra is angry, it's not a pretty sight. "Calm down." Jesse said.

"There's no way I'm calming down!!! Come on!" She yelled as she started chasing after him with Jesse an Rueben close behind.

When they caught up to her Petra tried to make it clear what they were going to do. "I'm either getting my skull back or I'm getting that diamond!"

"Or you'll make him pay? Right?" Jesse asked going of previous situations from when they were kids.

They came out of the alleyway into EnderCon and they couldn't see him anywhere and there were crowds of people everywhere. "Dam it we lost him!" Petra almost yelled but she stopped when she noticed all the people around. "Ok here's the plan. I'll look on the left side of EnderCon and you can look on the right. One way or another, he's going to pay." Petra said leaving.

Jesse wasn't to confident about finding him but she had to try.

Yay more cliffhangers!! Ha ha. I need to ask you guys something. So episode 5 has come out and I have seen the trailer of it from YouTube (because I haven't played the game) and I'm so confused!!!!! I don't know if I should add episode five to my story or just skip it. If I add it, that means that I will be delaying my own made up story line. What should I do?!?! What would you do??

Anyway I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I'll see you in the next.

See~ya.
