Mitch's pov

I left the room with Seto and Jerome after we saw that Sky was ok. I noticed that Ty was worried sick. Shaking my head I went to my room. When I got there, I put my bow and quiver down, and grabbed another set of clothes. Mine were covered in blood, and torn. Frowning I went into the bathroom to clean the blood off and patch up my wounds. At least they're not as bad as Sky's. I thought sadly as I wrapped the bandages around my arm and waist.

"Hey, Mitch, are you in here?" I heard Jerome ask as he knocked on my door.

"Yah, one minute." I shouted from the bathroom. I pulled my new shirt over my head and finished dressing. My dog tags still around my neck. I walked over to the door and opened it to see a worried bacca. "What's up?" He had on a fresh suite and bandages on his minor wounds.

"Do you think Sky's gonna be ok?" He asked. We walked over to my bed and sat down.

"Dood, Skys' strong, I'm sure he's gonna be fine."

"What if he's not? What if he doesn't wake up. What if they come back, or worse, if he comes back? What do we do then?" Jerome asked with a voice full of worry.

The he that Jerome was speaking of was Herobrine, he had been defeated by us, with help from Notch, once before but with him, anything could happen, he did promise to come back for revenge. "Well, I guess we'll have to cross that road when we get to it. For now, you need to get some sleep. We all do." He nodded and left.

"Thanks Mitch, you always know just how to make everything ok." He said leaving with a small smile.

I smiled a little. I stood and turned off the light. We all really do need to get some sleep. It's been a long day. I sighed as I layed down in bed and fell asleep.

I opened my eyes, I found myself surrounded by lava and mobs. Damn! Back here again? I'll get my revenge, somehow. I looked up to see my castle. I stood and walked inside.

"My Lord! Your back! You have been gone for years."

"Yes, I'm quite aware of that." I looked up at my throne. It was made of obsidion and had the skulls of my enemies that I managed to destroy. I smiled slightly as I sat apon it once again. "Now that I have finally returned, I can plot my revenge on Notch and his protectors of Minecraft." I'll get you one day Sky, just you wait.

Sky's pov

I awoke with a start. Sitting staight up, big mistake, I felt a wave of pain shoot through me. Wincing, I grabbed my side and groaned in pain. I didn't remember what scared me so much, then it clicked. I saw him, he was in my dream, Herobrine is back. No, not now! "SKY! SKY, YOUR OK!" I heard Ty shout as he pulled me into a large hug.

I winced as more pain shot through me, but hugged him back. "Yah, I'm ok. It takes more than a squid to bring me down." I said weakly.

Ty pulled away. He looked much better than last night. He must have gotten cleaned up. "How are you feeling?"

"I've been better." I looked out the window in front of me. I saw some new recrutes, training on the grounds. "How's the kingdom? What happened while I was out? How's the army?" I asked, all my questions were poring out of my mouth faster than Ty could answer them.

"Woah, calm down. One question at a time. The army and kingdom are a little shaken up but they're fine, not much happened, we cleaned up the wounded. You were the only one who was really hurt to the point of needing to go to the infermery." I felt my hopes rise. I was the only one badly hurt. As I thought about it more, my hart sank. But I wasn't there for my kingdom. "The new recrutes are working on training. The newest one, umm I think her name was Lilly, she's an amazing fighter. We've been mostly waiting for you to wake up." Ty reported.

I nodded. "Good, I'm glad that you can all continue on while I'm unable to help." I said. I felt bad that I couldn't be there for my kingdom when I'm needed the most.

Ty gave me a hard look. "Don't be so hard on yourself. You just risked you life to save us. Sky, your a hero."

"Anyone would've done what I did if I hadn't." I said modestly.

"No, you did what you did for a reason. You saved us all. Why are you talking about yourself like you don't matter? Are you ok?"

"Yah, I'm fine. So, where's Seto? I need to speak with him."

Ty's eyes lit up. "I'll get the others. You can talk to Seto after they find out your awake." I smiled as he ran out of the room, and almost right into Jason. Jason was, and still is, one of my best friends. When we were small he use to wear a spacesuit. Now he usually has on a space like colored T-shirt, his helmet, and jeans.

"Glad to see your finally awake, your Magisty." He said bowing before me.

"Jason, you know how much I hate it when people call me that." I said trying to give him an angry look, but I couldn't hide my smile. I sat up more as he came twords me.

"I know. That's why I do it." He sat down next to me. "So, how are you doing?"

"Well, I've been better. A slight headache, some pain spreading throughout my body." I shrugged. "How about you?"

"Well, seeing how I was the first one to see you being carried to the medic, unconscious, knowing that your doing better makes me better." He said with a smile.

I smiled back as the other generals came running in behind Ty, huge grins across their faces as they all hugged me. Sending more pain through my body. I groaned slightly and they backed off. "Sky, I'm so glad your ok. The kingdom has been so worried about you." Ian said.

"They have been so worried in fact, that they almost stopped training all together." Mitch exclaimed.

"I'm fine." I said. I stood and walked out the door.

"Where are you going?" Jerome asked.

"Well, I think the Skyarmy and the rest of the kingdom deserve to know that their king is alive and well." I went to the balcony that over looked the training grounds. All the recrutes stopped what they were doing and looked up at me with joy and surprise. Some went into the castle, coming out with even more of the kingdom behind them. By the time I was ready to start, I had all the generals standing in a row behind me. "RECRUTES OF THE BUDDER KINGDOM." I started. "I AM HERE TO INFORM YOU THAT WE HAVE WON THE WAR WE HAVE BEEN FIGHTING FOR YEARS. THE SQUID KING HAS BEEN DEFEATED!!" I heard cheers and shouts below me.

"MY LORD, WE ALL SAW YOU WOUNDED COMING INTO THE CASTLE." One of the recrutes shouted up at me.

I felt the smile on my face grow. "IT'S GOING TO TAKE MORE THAN A STUPID SQUID KING TO BRING ME DOWN!" More cheers and shouts. I walked away from the balcony and faced the rest of the team. They all smiled at me.

"Sir, you know, you have been the only one to bring joy to the kingdom since the end of the war." Ty said.

"I'm glad I can spread hope across the land that I have to rule. If I didn't, what kind of king would I be?" I looked at Seto, remembering my dream. "I need to speak with you, Seto, alone."

"Yes, my lord." He said bowing, trying to hide a smile. We walked into my room and shut the door. "Sky, what's up."

"Seto, your not gonna belive me when I tell you this."

"What's wrong?"

"Seto, he's back." Seto looked confused. "Seto, Herobrine is back!"

"That can't be! You and Notch, y-you banished him."

"NO, NOTCH DID! But for how long I don't know. I have a bad feeling Seto. I know he's back, and he's coming for revenge." Seto looked stunned.

"No, not him...not now." Was all he managed to say.
