We rushed out of the library into the pouring rain. “Run run run run run!” Armen shouted as he tripped over a few holes in the road.

I made an annoying groan as I noticed the rain was soaking my hoodie, but I kept running regardless.

Drake made a groan as well. “Could we, like, get under something please?!” He shouted before we made it into a small house.

I leaned against the wall and unzipped my hoodie, letting in dry on a shelf for a few minutes. I made a small laugh at the Doctor Who shirt I was wearing. *I forgot I was wearing that.* I thought before I noticed a light out of the corner of my eye. “Uh...guys?”

The floor went into an underground room, and all of us went inside. Drake sighed when Grayson read a sign. “‘Sacrifice the innocent to HIM.’”

“Well...looks like this is the Herobrine cult.” Drake said, clearly tired from the journey.

I walked around the room for a bit and I couldn't help but gag at the sounds of the soft, squishy, blood red floor. “O-Oh my god…”

Drake looked at the floor as well and gagged as well before running out of the room. “Okay that is nasty! That is legitimately the nastiest thing I've ever seen!”

Grayson and I looked in what looked like a cauldron to see that it was full of blood. “Oh shit…” He said as I walked out of the room.

Grayson looked at the map from the library and smiled. “We might be able to get to the Imperial Forge with this map, and there's another smaller star at the church.”

Drake looked at Grayson curiously. “Well maybe we should go to the church first.” He said.

Grayson nodded, and I grabbed my hoodie and put it back on as we ran outside.

We came across several buildings, including small houses, armories, and even a museum. When we got to a corner of the road leading to the church, I felt a sharp stinging sensation pulse through my left eye. I put my hand against my eyepatch and winced as Grayson ran over to me. “Will, what's wrong?!” He asked, worried about me.

I looked up just in time to see Herobrine in front of the church entrance. “Guys!!”

Drake stumbled back when he saw HIM, but we bolted into the church of Notch after he disappeared.

I looked around the small church, slightly unimpressed by what we found. That was until Armen pulled out his dagger and walked over to the altar place. “Wait...d-do you think that would work?” I asked nervously.

Armen looked at me and shrugged as he slid the dagger into a slot above the altar, and the floor instantly opened after he turned the dagger in the hole.

All of us couldn't help but smile as we walked inside, leading into a downstairs area surrounded by plant life and a cool looking set of armor, surrounded by water with strange words seemingly coming out of thin air. “Woah…” I said, my voice filling with excitement.

Grayson walked up to a strange looking tree with blue leaves, gray bark, and what looked like a huge eye facing the open space we were in. “Lemme read this.” He said as he flipped through the pages of another pale book sitting on a pedestal in front of the tree. “Hmm...it says your name, Armen.”

The looks of surprise were on all our faces as Armen walked over to the book. “Wait, seriously? Lemme see!” He said curiously.

Grayson flipped through the pages and gasped. “It has all our names in it!!” He said, his voice filled with excitement.

“Wait really?! There's no way!!” I said nervously, clutching my hoodie string. *How could my name be in a book?*

“Yeah! Grayson, Will, Drake, and Armen!” Grayson took the book off the pedestal and looked at the set of armor across the room. “Armen, the book says that the armor over there is yours.”
