skeppy: YOU GUYS WHAT?!?!?!?

It's been 2 days since the Raid. Both a6d and bbh were fully recovered by now and had been helping rebuilding the village.

A6d had been helping with the reconstruction of the houses and removing the rubble that covered the place, while bbh kept the villagers safe during the night and fed them.

Skeppy had been unconscious until then, under the care of none other than Spifey.

bbh: it was great! We fought several pillagers and then those giant creatures came that almost crushed us but we managed to win after all :D

a6d: plus with all the help from spifey, how were we going to die? * totally non-sarcastic, haha ​​imagine being sarcastic pffff*

spifey: there is no that ;) also thanks to you I won the bet and now I have this map and his braincells

Handing over the map to bad, he told him that with the map they already had they could easily locate the portal to the Nether and continue the adventure.
The map was like any other, but it was marked with a purple dot in an area that seemed to be close to the mountains.

Interested in the conversation, a villager approached

villager: I-I heard you wanted to go to Ne-n-Nether, right? W-well, it is possible to go where the map indicates b-but it is not safe to go! It is guarded by b-big monsters and there are other e-enemies who will want to go fight there...

skeppy: pfshh... we are the future heroes, it will be easy

While they were in the village, some villagers decided to give them food as thanks, counting on 7 apples and 1 more gapple.
They spent one more night there before leaving

skeppy: oh no-

⋆ ˚｡⋆ ˚ Spifey has joined your small group of friends ˚ ⋆｡˚ ⋆

And with that, the team continued on their way.
The map indicated that their destination was in a mountainous area after a jungle, no more than 3 or 4 days walking without rest.

Hours after leaving the village, they went into a small forest to pick berries and rest under the shade of the trees. There wasn't much going on since it was still day time

a6d: ah finally a break, don't you think it's nice?

skeppy: I don't know about you, but I'm more prepared than ever to beat that pig

a6d: for that you will have to resist more than one special attack from a beaver pffff

skeppy: shuT UP!!!

bbh: come on guys, lets find some wool and a small place to survive the night

"Dear Diary,
5 days have passed since we left the village.
The journey should have been shorter, but we got lost in the jungle and still haven't made it out.
Anyway, on the way we came across a village devastated by monsters, but when we went to check if anything was left, it looked as if it had been looted.
A6d thinks there are more people trying to go to the Nether this year, while skeppy only thinks it's techno getting ahead of us.
We almost died a couple of times, because in the jungle the trees are so tall and robust that the monsters do not stop appearing and attacking "

skeppy: hey, does anyone have food? I ran out of apples and berries, and I don't see any melon around here

bbh: take this! here is a muffin

skeppy: a6d, do you have food?

bbh: don't ignore me! >:0

skeppy: a6d?

A6d was a little further, kneeling in front of a stream. The other two went to were he was at

a6d: guys, what is this doing here?

Small, light green rocks were places at the bottom on the stream. They were glowing slightly with the reflexion of the sun in the water

skeppy: emeralds? idk, maybe it is something normal in the jungle, although it's still kinda strange...

George: And why don't you go and see?

skeppy: AAH! STOP DOING THAT, YOU SCARE ME-

a6d: but I don't see anything close more than trees and trees. Just a pair of emeralds at the bottom of a river doesn't sound like something we have to investigate

George gets up with the others and points north. Then he fades away

skeppy: i have no idea what's going on

a6d: I don't know whether to trust him or not... last time he took us directly to a Raid-

bbh: and also with spifey and the villagers who helped us. I don't think the Raid was his fault. Let's go!

skeppy: why am I always the only one surprised to see him come and go out of nowhere...

bbh: we aaaaare going to find the portal plah bluh plstd bsuuuu~

It's been raining a lot.
Even though the leaves of the trees protected them from most of the water, it was really cold and almost night, leaving the trio unprotected.
They were currentky fighting a group of zombies

skeppy: why are there so many mobs!? need some help here pleeeease

bbh: I'm bussy dealing with these guys here, they won't stop attacking us!
where even is a6d? I can't see him anywhere... WHAT IF HE DIED!?!? Oh my godness oh no-

a6d: I just know how to use my powers

A6d was invicible at tye side of the fight, throuwing rocks to the zombies that got near

bbh: ah, I'm glad you are ok- I'm sorry, I don't know what it feels to have uSeFuL pOwErS

skeppy: PFFFFF *giggles*

In that second of distraction, a creeper got near and exploded right between the group.
None of them died, but they were unconcious on the floor.

Before the zombies could kill them, a group of people got near. They took their weapons away and tied their hands before they took the unconcious bodies with them.

Meanwhile, a small shadow followed them
