We got up early.The air was cool.I walked behind everyone else,thinking of the voices from my dream.The lights,pulsing,blinking,flashing.

Those voices,they were so familiar...so naggingly familiar...

Axel looked back at me,then walked faster until he was next to Olivia.

I didn't mind.

Okay,that was a lie.

Lukas bounded up a nearby hill.

"I think I see something!Up ahead."He shouted.

I think you could guess what we did next.Climbed the vines.

The sight was a lot more spectacular when you were in the game.

"Woah."I gasped.

"That must be the temple!"Jesse exclaimed.

She jumped down.Axel went after her,then Lukas,then me,then Olivia,then Reuben.

I remembered the trap.The arrows.

We walked in.

The place was eerie.

A spider hissed somewhere,and Reuben made scared noises.

"Stay behind me."Jesse hissed.

Whatever she wanted.We wouldn't stay behind her for long.

We wouldn't.We couldn't.

I could see the crafting table up ahead...and the dispensers...the pressure plates too...

"Isn't it funny that dispensers are carved to look like spooky little dispensers?"Axel joked."Aw,little guys,what do you dispense?"

Olivia was not amused.

"I have a feeling we don't want to find out."She said.

"Could be anything."I pointed out."Eggs.Arrows.Fireballs."

There was another hiss from a spider,and Reuben squealed,running forward and pressing a pressure plate.

"Reuben!"Jesse called.

The room started making a whirring noise...

"Come on,little dispenser faces,I thought we were friends!"Axel complained.

"Run!"Jesse shouted.

No.Don't run.

There was still a one block space between the piston gate that was coming down and the dispensers.I stayed just behind the pressure plates.

Jesse didn't get hit at all.That was good,I'd failed that scene more than once at home.

When everyone was at the other side,I pressed the pressure plate again and everything stopped.The dispensers went off.

"Uh...thanks?"Jesse said.

"Let's go."Lukas turned around.

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

Well,that wasn't supposed to happen.

Of course it was!

Are you the one giving out handicaps?

Yes.

Do you want that thing to win?

There must.Be.Balance.

Right.What about those five?

They get balance too,of course.

Every single one of them...they all have to face so much...

It is what they wished.

I'm starting to think that maybe we didn't do the right thing...

Nonsense.Stuff and nonsense.

I hope they all survive.

"...these five friends...five heroes..."Jesse read.

"So Ivor was a part of the Order!"Olivia exclaimed.

"But they kicked him out for something...I'm guessing."I added.

I'd do more but I'm having a lazy day...sorry.
