Before I begin, I would like to say that a part two for this story may not come for a while, if not ever. I hope I get inspired enough to finish the story for all of you who are reading this. Also, I will be posting a new series called: The Adventures Of Villager No. 78.
I am very excited to finish that story and send it to Mark. It’s going to be awesome! And by the way, I wrote this story a long time ago, so my writing will not be as good as future stories. Anyways, lets begin.

Battle For Hypixel
Part one

Chapter One
TNT Time

Hillbillypodunk loved one of Minecraft’s top servers, Hypixel, but above all, he loved TNT tag. It was the most popular TNT game. There was also TNT run. Bow spleef. Pvp run. and Wizards. But those were only a few of Hypixel’s many mini games. One day, Hillbillypodunk decided to play TNT tag. Little did he know that this day would change the way he looked at the game forever.

“I can do this I, I can do this.” Hillbillypodunk thought as he waited for the round of TNT tag to start. He was on his favorite map called Bloom. He had never won TNT tag before. He was anxious to finally get a win, but could he do it? TNT tag was a tough game that took a lot of skill to win. His brother wondered why he liked that game so much, especially since he never won. Suddenly, the numbers to the left of his screen started the countdown from ten to one. Ten. Nine. Eight. He could feel his heart start to beat faster and faster. Five. Four. Three. Two. One. Go! Suddenly all the players were teleported to the map. The map was amazing. You spawned at the center of the map and instantly you could see two sets of stairs in front of you with a short tunnel that was in the middle of the two stair cases. If you turned around, you would see the same thing. twenty of the players instantly shot up one of the stair cases. All the players that didn’t race up a stair cases quickly ran around the two stair cases and into the open to find a good hiding spot, or to look for another more unused way to get to the islands above which the main stair cases led to. Hillbillypodunk was immediately knocked to the ground, a block of TNT sitting on his head, showing that he was it. “Not my best start.” He said with a frown. Realizing that there was no one near him, he gritted his teeth and sprinted up the right staircase, eager to find a player and hopefully survive the round. Once he reached the top, looking around quickly, he saw some commotion in the main right corner. Someone was hitting other users off for no reason. The users yelled out angry words and quickly climbed back up, but they were hit off again. The bully laughed, then hit another user off. The users weren’t very good fighters and couldn’t fight back. Ten seconds remained before the people who were it exploded. Gathering speed, Hillbillypodunk raced towards the user. Why is he being so rude?! Hillbillypodunk thought as he ran faster. Five more seconds. “Stop it!” Hillbillypodunk yelled as he struck the bully off the edge. Before the user could yell, he exploded, causing a cloud of smoke to form in midair for a split second before it vanished. The users smiled, then shot off in different directions. “Maybe I can win?” He said with a grin. “Come on round two. Bring it on!” Turning, he sprinted towards the donut shaped center of the map. It was surrounded by the other four circles. He ran along the side until he suddenly stopped. Peaking over the edge, he saw a massive flower that the builders of Hypixel had made for a great hiding spot. Perfect! He thought as he took the small leap and landed on the flower gracefully. Smiling he looked across the landscape and could see two users in thick battle. One had TNT and the other didn’t, but soon, they had both had the TNT on their heads multiple times. Hillbillypodunk could see they both were not even trying to run, they just kept fighting. Ten seconds remained in round two. Suddenly, the player with his back facing him tagged his opponent, turned and ran straight for his flower. He knew the users couldn’t get on the flower unless they were on top of the sky islands. Suddenly. In the blink of an eye, something hit him in the back. Spinning he saw a user there laughing mockingly as the TNT switched to Hillbillypodunk. Fear filled his mind as he fell. He knew he would take no fall damage, but there was only three seconds left before he would explode. Suddenly, he remembered the user bellow him! Looking straight down. He saw he was about to land on the ground. Right in front of the retreating user. With a quick strike, the user immediately ignited, the explosion didn’t kill him, but sent him flying into the side of the large hill. Standing, he stood slowly and looked around. A smile slowly spread across his face. “I can’t believe I survived!” He shouted happily. Looking up, he couldn’t see the user that had given him the TNT standing on the flower. For some reason, he had a feeling he’d have to face that user again. “I have to find a hiding spot.” He said as he turned and ran up one of the stair cases. Then the new round started. He sighed with relief when he realized he hadn’t spawned with TNT. He could see several players running around the large islands. Suddenly, he noticed someone racing up the one of the staircases, charging straight at him. There were five or so players that were it charging at him. Turning, he ran the other direction at top speed. Fifteen seconds remained till the TNT people blew up. One of them was coming close to striking him. They’re going to catch me! He thought as he waited for a player to tag him. An idea suddenly shot into his mind. I hope this works. He thought as he turned quickly and shot off left, straight for the edge! Waiting till the last second, he took a massive leap, flying through the air. He crashed into one of the stair cases, but didn’t slow down. He sprinted and then jumped on to the next stair case. And then the next. Finally, He had lost the people who had TNT. Explosions sounded all around him. He had been extremely lucky. “I have to find a hiding spot. If I don’t, I’m sure to die.” Turning, he ran towards a cluster of people. They all looked friendly. “I’ll camp over there for a while.” He said with a smile. But suddenly, the user that had hit him with the TNT earlier on the giant flower raced onto the island, striking two of the users off in seconds. The other users fell on him, but the user just struck two more of them off. The final one ran away quickly, hoping to find a new hiding spot “Bully!” Hillbillypodunk yelled as he glared at the rude user. But he just smiled. Then took off, looking for some other person to hit. “I’m tired of the people who can’t stop hitting others off!” Turning, he stared at the map. All three of the mini ones surrounding the larger one looked beautiful. He knew he was standing on top of the fourth small circle. Suddenly, a person was racing towards him. What’s he doing?  He thought as he looked at the player, his eyes looking to make sure he wasn’t hurting anyone. And then the player took the small jump to his circle, but didn’t strike him. “Hello!” Hillbillypodunk said with a huge smile. The user just stared, and then sprinted around the other side of the circle, and stopped by a flower. A giant one too. He curled up in the corner and sat there, waiting for someone with TNT too come. “I sure hope no one finds me.” Hillbillypodunk said with a look of exhaustion. “I can’t put up with all the chaos!” “Far too many people have nearly killed me in every round!” Hillbillypodunk just sat there, hoping not to be found and tagged. And then he heard the faint explosions far away and smiled. Preparing for the next round was hard. He wasn’t sure if he could trust the near by player. And then he realized that the player standing near by was it. Fear filled his mind instantly. Turning, he shot in the opposite direction full speed. The player was slow to chase him and had fallen behind. Taking a massive leap, Hillbillypodunk flew through the air and crashed into the ground. Not hesitating, Hillbillypodunk ran up a cool looking parkour course. The parkour whipped around an area in the massive mountain that surrounded the map. The area was hollow and looked awesome. Being ok at parkour, he took the first few jumps easily, but suddenly, his jump almost failed. That was close! He thought. He knew that if he fell, the TNT person would tag him immediately. Turning, he could see the person that had TNT was good at parkour and would likely catch him. “Got to keep going.” He said under his breath. Running full speed, he took the leaps one by one until he reached the top. Turning, he knew the TNT person would be there soon.  Looking up, he could see multiple other players. I have to warn them. He thought. “Run!” He yelled as he tried to save the other players from the incoming doom. But it was to late. The TNT person tagged one of them and every one that had been hunched together ignited and were gone. The person that had tagged them had also been to close and he too exploded. Hillbillypodunk felt rather sad, but knew he had to focus on his own problems. And then he realized that a bunch of other players had also been destroyed in the huge round. “Six people left means…” “Oh no!” He said. “That means deathmatch!” Deathmatch was when only six players or bellow were still left. The round would not start with random people being chose to be it right where they were standing. Deathmatch teleported every player to main spawn of the Bloom map and one by one, people were chosen to have TNT. It always ended with one person being destroyed sense only one person spawned it. Unless of course people who were to close in their fight died. Its about to start. He thought. And then they were all teleported to the center of the map. Immediately he raced up the left stair case and escaped. He could hear two users in thick battle, each one trading the TNT. Once he reached the top, Hillbillypodunk looked down and saw the user that had hit him off and given him the TNT. The same user who was bullying the other players earlier. The bully clearly was better then the other user and had the upper hand. With only three seconds left, the rude user struck the other user, and then turned around and ran up a stair case with lightning speed. The other user wasn’t fast enough and blew up. Five players remained. A few seconds later, they were all teleported to the center although this time Hillbillypodunk spawned it. “Dang it.” He said silently.  Turning, he quickly gave another player the TNT, and then sprinted. He started looping around the giant island stabilizer things that had a stair case on each. Racing around each one, he skillfully avoided the player. Suddenly, he turned and prepared to run around again when he suddenly ran into another player! He ran by him as fast as he could, leaving the doomed user. Turning, he could see the users were locked in deadly battle, until one of them shot up a stair case. She tried to make it too the top before the other player caught up to her. Once she reached the top, the other player tagged her, and then ran. He hoped to escape, but she tagged him back quickly. The two fought wildly until the clock went down to zero. Both users had tied and were gone. That has happened a lot in this game of TNT tag. Hillbillypodunk thought as he turned and got ready to be teleported to the center. Three players remained. The bully. Himself and someone else who was good at the game. And then. The round started. With a burst of speed, he shot up one of the back-stair cases and reached the top quickly. Looking down, he once again saw two users locked in one of the most ferocious TNT battles ever. The bully still had the upper hand, but the other user was good too. After a while of combat, the clock said Ten. Nine. Eight. And so on. Hillbillypodunk watched closely, hoping that the bully would lose to the other great user. And then an explosion echoed through the air causing him to look away. When he looked back, he saw the bully standing there with a slick smile. I’m doomed. Hillbillypodunk thought. And then, as he waited with terror in his eyes as he waited to fight the impossible. And then he was suddenly teleported t the center of the map. Immediately he was tagged. Spinning, he watched as the user shot up a stair case. Sprinting with all his might, he charged up the stairs as fast as he could. Once he reached the top, he saw him running around the middle circle that was surrounded by the four smaller circles. Soon, Hillbillypodunk had caught up with the user. Swinging with all his might, he struck the user, giving him the TNT and almost making him fall off. Running full speed, Hillbillypodunk ran from the bully. Seconds later, he was suddenly given the TNT again. Twenty seconds remained until the round ended. Turning, he gave the TNT back to the bully. The two users battled back and forth until the user hit Hillbillypodunk off the edge. Hillbillypodunk knew it was the end. But he didn’t care that he would lose, he looked back at the user and with ten more seconds remaining he waited. And then something happened. As he followed him from bellow, the bully was about to make an easy jump. When he jumped too early! With a loud shout, the bully fell straight on top of him. One second remained! KABOOM! When the explosion faded, all the spectators who had been watching them fight gasped. Hillbillypodunk was standing there, alone! I won. I won! He thought happily. He couldn’t believe he had actually won! The spectators all cheered when they saw the bully had finally lost. One by one, the spectators disappeared either playing again or leaving to play a new mini game. Hillbillypodunk prepared to return to lobby. Little did he notice a user standing out in the open field bellow the sky islands. Someone was standing far away. There was something dark about this user, but he was no user. As Hillbillypodunk left and prepared to play another game, the villain laughed. “I will show the programmers of Minecraft why they shouldn’t have tried to destroy me so long ago. He said angrily. The destruction of Minecraft has begun, and it starts with Hypixel. And as the villain slowly opened his eyes, a white light burst out and made the landscape shake with fear.

Chapter two
ElectricEggroll

ElectricEggroll waited for the round to start. He was nervous. A group of users had challenged him to a game of Mini walls, and he wasn’t sure he could win it. ElectricEggroll loved Minecraft and he loved Hypixel. “I hope I can win this.” He said as he prepared for the round to start. Mini walls was a game with four teams of four people. It was similar to the game of Bedwars. But it had one large difference. Everyone was on one small floating island where you had to defeat the other team’s withers. If you destroyed their wither, then they wouldn’t respawn. Normally the players would just respawn and hop back into the fight, but if your wither was gone, you wouldn’t respawn. The teams were Yellow. Blue. Green. And Red. What team should I pick? He thought as he decided carefully. The map of Mini walls that he was playing was named Skydome. He was about to pick when suddenly the round began. He was on team yellow. “Defend the wither with wool before the walls fall.” Electric said quickly. In the game of mini walls, you had fifteen seconds to surround your wither with wool, the only block you spawned with to protect it was wool. Two of the players nodded their heads and then got to work surrounding it with their wool blocks. when they were done, ten seconds remained until the wall fell. All the players except for him Got ready to attack the blues wither. Suddenly the walls fell reviling the all four of the blue team’s players. They swiftly dominated two of the yellow players. One of the yellow player destroyed a blue player, then turned and clashed with another blue player. Drawing back his bow, ElectricEggroll Released the arrow. Before it struck its target, he had fired two more arrows. All three immediately destroyed the blue player which was his target. The battle with blue had begun. Meanwhile, Green was in a thick fight with red. ElectricEggroll could tell that the red team had done only a little damage to greens wither. Just then, blue launched a massive attack on yellow. Fear filled ElectricEggroll’s mind as he prepared for the fight that was about to come. “Come on!” A user shouted. Looking down, Eggroll could see the user had mined into the tunnel network that was beneath the map. Leaping down, he followed the user into the tunnel network. As they walked, ElectricEggroll suddenly heard something. “Take cover!” he said quickly. A person from team green was sneaking into there base from the tunnel network! Three. Two. One. Now! ElectricEggroll Shouted as he jumped out of the hiding spot. The user shouted out in fear as he tried to back up, but the two users wouldn’t let him. They surrounded him with countless hits until he was destroyed. “Nice.” The user said with a smile. “Let’s go.” “We have a wither to destroy!” ElectricEggroll   said with a smile. The two users crept towards the entrance to blue’s base. “Ok get ready.” The user said as he mined the first block that led into blue team’s base. “Now!” The user yelled. The two shot up the steps. Broke through the wool wall that they had made, and jumped at the wither. No one from blue team was there. They struck the beats multiple times before it shot a wither skull that sent the other user flying. ElectricEggroll Slashed at it with all his might. The wither screamed in pain and fury. It fired a wither skull straight at him. Surprise shot through his body as he flew through the air and crashed into the ground. His head spun wildly. Standing, he charged at the wither, running full speed. The wither tried to shoot him again. But he easily avoided all of the wither skulls. Realizing that it likely wouldn’t survive the battle, it took carful aim and shot a red player that stood a little way’s away. The player flashed bright red as she took serious damage. And then ElectricEggroll saw a user charging towards blue base. The base ElectricEggroll was in. It was the person that had challenged him to the game. He hadn’t seen him in the round yet, but now, he knew that he was on red team and he was a pro. Suddenly a user from blue team respawned. The user went into thick battle with ElectricEggroll’s teammate. the user that had challenged him suddenly sprinted in full speed. Lunging at the blue team’s wither. With a few quick hits, the wither disappeared with a sorrowful groan. Just then, the blue player killed ElectricEggroll’s teammate, who would respawn. and then he attacked ElectricEggroll. Ducking under the attack, he Slashed at the user with such ferocity that the user knew he didn’t stand a chance. In seconds he was gone. Take that. ElectricEggroll thought as he glared at the spot where the user had died. suddenly he flashed red as he took serious damage. In seconds, he was gone. After five seconds, he respawned. “The guy who challenged me to this game did that!” He said with a look of venomous hatred in his eyes. Looking around, ElectricEggroll could see that the wall had been broke, not all the wall but a small piece of it. Whenever someone shot there bow at wool blocks, it would destroy a couple. He wasn’t sure why. but red or green had done that to theirs. Blue was almost gone so they couldn’t have. Suddenly, he had an idea. And then words flashed in his screen. BLUE TEAM ELIMANATED. Moving swiftly, he raced towards reds base. Gathering all the players of his team on the way there, he quickly explained his plan. His teammates nodded, then raced towards reds base. Wool blocked the entrance of the base. He ran to the side of the building, then built up. Once he reached the top, he looked down and could see his teammates following the plan, one started jumping just outside of reds base after he had destroyed part of the wall, the other two sat hidden on both sides of the entrance. Two red players raced out to eliminate the single user. Suddenly, two yellows were there attacking the reds wildly. ElectricEggroll had forgotten what team he was on, but now he knew. He laughed at the fact that he forgot. The other reds, including the person who had challenged him ran out quickly leaving no one to defend the mini wither. ElectricEggroll mined straight down and fell into the base. Immediately the wither fired on him. He took serious damage from the blow. he hit the beast with all the strength he had. The wither cackled as it saw him get weaker. Suddenly, ElectricEggroll lunged again and delivered three swift hits that caused the wither to roar in frustration more then in pain. Striking a devastating blow to the withers middle head, he slashed and did more damage to the wither. Ducking under a wither skull, He was about to launch himself at the wither again when something hit him hard in the side. Turning, he could see the user, the one that had challenged him grinning. “Your plan worked for a little, but my teammates will destroy your wither and then I will destroy you!” As the user slowly backed him into a corner, an idea filled his mind. Looking at the timer to the side of the screen, he could see that Deathmatch was about to start. With a shout, he lunged at the user and tackled him down the stairs and into the strange downstairs. They crashed into the bottom stood and clashed, sparks flew as they fought. Meanwhile, his teammates were fighting the red team in hopes of eliminating them. Deathmatch meant that your wither died, and the small island would slowly fall apart from all sides. Every five seconds it would fall away into the void. The two users couldn’t stop fighting. ElectricEggroll ducked under the user’s sword, then slashed wildly until the user was pushed all the way back to the corner. ElectricEggroll then used every ounce of strength he had and kicked the user hard into the wall. ElectricEggroll delivered three of the hardest blows he ever had, causing the user to collapse just as the land next to him nearly fell into the void. The user then slipped and fell in. ElectricEggroll stood a distance away and watched as the user fell into the void, his eyes filled with fear as he realized his doom. He sighed as he prepared to go back up the stairs. Just as was about to. The ground beneath him suddenly fell away! With a swift dive, he tried to reach the other side. Thankfully, he climbed up as fast as he could as he prepared for death, or victory. That was too close. He thought as he looked down the stairs that were now almost completely gone. Turning, he charged. But he halted as fast as he could. There were two red and two yellows fighting as hard as they could. Drawing his bow, he shot two arrows that did serious damage to one player. Turning, he charged at the other and knocked him backward. His teammates smiled, then destroyed the one who had been hit with arrows instantly. The last red player stood there with anger flushing in his eyes. “You cannot defeat me!” The user shouted as he shot one of them with two arrows. the teammate began to vanish with a look of despair in his eyes, he disappeared and became a spectator. “You’ll pay for that!” ElectricEggroll yelled as he lunged and swung his sword. The user shouted in terror as he fell backward and fell into the void. Sighing with relief, ElectricEggroll smiled when he saw that they had won. What ever happened to green team? They just disappeared. He thought as suspicion filled his mind. He hadn’t remembered red team defeating them. Something else had. But what? A few seconds later, He appeared in the arcade lobby. But realized nobody else was in this lobby. Hypixel had several different lobby’s and each lobby Had many more lobby’s. He had spawned in arcade lobby five. Suddenly, a figure appeared at the spawn of this lobby. Turning, he saw an interesting user with a grey shirt with a white stripe going down the middle. His shirt had strange looking diamonds all over it making it look amazing. “Who are you?” ElectricEggroll asked. The user smiled, then said in a kind voice. “I am Hillbillypodunk.”

Chapter three
Herobrine

He paced back in forth slowly, his eyes blazing bright with hatred. “When will my monsters arrive!” He said with a look of anger in his eyes. I will get revenge on the Minecraft team for almost deleting me. They will pay for that! Herobrine thought as he glared at the portal that his army was soon to come out of. Herobrine had once been a program that had failed to do what it was supposed to. So, the programmers had tried to delete him and restart that bit of code. But secretly, Herobrine had survived, and was still in Minecraft. Now, he swore revenge, saying that he’d destroy their creation. Minecraft. Looking around, Herobrine glared at the chamber around him. It was about twenty blocks high and about sixty blocks across. This chambers too small for me. Too small! He thought as anger started to bubble within him. His army was almost there, and they wouldn’t even have enough room to move. “You over there, zombie. Come here.” He said as he glared at the creature. The zombie moaned, then approached with a look of fear in its eyes. Herobrine only had about twenty monsters in the chamber. Not enough to destroy Hypixel. That’s why he was waiting for more monsters to arrive and help him destroy the server once and for all. He had sent a zombie messenger to the other worlds across Minecraft. The zombie walked up to him. What do you want me to do? The zombie asked with a look of worry in its cold dead eyes. “Gather the other zombies in this chamber and start expanding in all directions. Hurry!” Herobrine said with his eyes blazing bright white. Looking at the portal that would send him directly to the Hypixel lobby where he would spawn in his spot where he could watch what the players were doing and take players out of the game Herobrine chose. It made him smile. Looking across the chamber, he could see the zombies moving to different sides of the large room and started to expand the chamber using picks and shovels. “Hurry!” Herobrine yelled as he drew his diamond sword and struck a zombie with it. The creature moaned in pain, then worked faster. “I have another job to do at Hypixel! when I come back, this chamber better be twice as large as it is now! Or there will be consequences.” Turning to the portal, Herobrine knew that this time, he would see what he could really do. Teleporting to the portal, Herobrine left the terrified zombies to finish expanding his soon-to-be-great chamber. “Soon, the monsters will arrive here!” He said as he fell through the portal. Minecraft will be destroyed!” And then he laughed an evil and malice’s laugh that echoed through the portal and showed that nothing could stop him now.

Chapter four
Let the battle begin

After talking for about twenty minutes about there story’s, Hillbillypodunk and ElectricEggroll were becoming suspicious. ElectricEggroll story seamed rather interesting. They couldn’t place why green team had mysteriously vanished. They both talked for over an hour before they decided they were officially friends. “We can find the source of the glitches later. For now, let’s play a game.” Hillbillypodunk said with a smile. “Ok!” ElectricEggroll said. “How about Bedwars?” Hillbillypodunk said as he prepared to leave for the Bedwars lobby. “We might find more clues about why that glitch happened. Let’s go.” Hillbillypodunk said. The two users got ready to play. They clicked on four vs four and were in the map: Ashore. Ten. Nine. Eight. And so on until the clock reached zero. They were teleported to the map and spawned on blue team. Immediately They backed into the gold and iron forge. In Bedwars, you used the iron and gold to get items. There were four islands with four different teams. In between the island where players spawned were diamond forges. You used the diamonds for team perks, such as getting protection for your armor. Two. Three and so on for your armor. It cost forty iron to get permanent chain mail armor. It cost twelve gold to get permanent iron armor. And it cost six emeralds, which you only find at the center island in bedwars, for diamond armor. “Defend the bed with end stone.” ElectricEggroll said as he raced to the shop. You could buy many things from the villager including end stone to surround your bed with. If your bed broke and you died, then you were out. Hillbillypodunk got hardened clay and surrounded the end stone that ElectricEggroll had made. Looking towards the main island at the center of the map, Hillbillypodunk could see that only green team had reached the main island. The team that reached the main island first usually had the upper hand. “We need to build a bridge to the main island.” ElectricEggroll said as he prepared to build the bridge with some wool he had purchased. “No wait.” Hillbillypodunk said as he looked across. “We should let them come to us. Then we could prepare massive defenses.” Eggroll just sighed, then started building a wall that surrounded them. Perfect. Hillbillypodunk thought as he watched the wall slowly grow. ElectricEggroll built a walkway on the wall so that they could shoot arrows at approaching players. I wonder what our teammates are getting from the item shop. Electric thought as he looked at the players getting items from the villager shop. Suddenly, they both came out in iron armor. One of them had a stone sword and the other just had the default blade. A wooden one. One of them started building a bridge to one of the diamond islands, all his focus was on the bridge he was making. Suddenly, Hillbillypodunk saw another player from green team building a bridge to the diamond forge that his teammate was going for. Moving with lightning speed, Hillbillypodunk ran down the bridge that his teammate was building as fast as he could. He knew that the other team would make it to the diamond forge first. The other user would hit his teammate off without a second thought. Running as fast as he could, he watched as his teammate was almost within sword range. Just as the green team player was about to strike the player, Hillbillypodunk jumped past his teammate and slashed at the player wildly. But the player fought back. Ducking under and attack, Hillbillypodunk struck the player, causing him to disappear. Hillbillypodunk knew he would respawn at his base. “Thanks.” His teammate said with a smile. Racing back to base, Hillbillypodunk ran into the forge and got a bunch of iron and gold. Running to the shop, he got chainmail armor. An iron sword. And a fireball. Hillbillypodunk ran up the small stair case that went to the top of there little fortress. ElectricEggroll was shooting arrows out of a bow that he must have gotten. He was shooting arrows at someone trying to build a bridge towards them. Firing as fast as he could, he fired a final arrow that destroyed the user. But the user’s teammate continued the bridge. “I’m out of arrows!” ElectricEggroll said with a look of fear in his eyes. As he ran back, Hillbillypodunk suddenly had an idea. Looking at the fireball in his hands, he looked at the user and smiled. The user looked at him and suddenly had a look of fear in his eyes. Grinning. Hillbillypodunk took carful aim and fired. His fireball looked as if it was going in slow motion as it sailed towards the user. Before the user could retreat, the fireball slammed into the bridge he was making, causing him to fall into the void. Sighing with relief, Hillbillypodunk turned just as ElectricEggroll arrived with an arrow notched in his bowstring. “Where did he go?” ElectricEggroll asked as he looked towards the damaged bridge. “I shot a fireball and destroyed him.” Hillbillypodunk said proudly as he looked towards the bridge. “We have to get emeralds.” ElectricEggroll said as he drew more wool and started a bridge. This time though, Hillbillypodunk knew that they had enough defenses to build a bridge and be safe. “Come on Hill.” Let’s get to the emeralds before someone else gets them.” Eggroll said as he started building a little faster. Nodding, he shot across the bridge and followed his new friend as they prepared to reach the other side. Leaping to the main island, SalmonTron watched as the timer for the emerald forge reached zero. It always had forty seconds to a minute until it dropped another emerald. Suddenly, three more players came from each team, eager to get the precious gems. One player was from green team. One from yellow, and the other from red. One of the players suddenly drew there bow and shot Hill three times, causing him to fall backward into the void. “I guess I’m alone on this one.” ElectricEggroll said as he drew the stone sword he had purchased and lunged into the battle. None of the teams could reach the emeralds since the other teams were holding them back. ElectricEggroll slashed with all his might, dealing damage to all three players. Lunging forward, ElectricEggroll focused his attack on the red player, swinging with all his might. Blocking his attack, the red player attacked him with a series of blows to the head, chest, legs. ElectricEggroll took damage, but fought back, striking his shoulder. The player attacked again, although this time, ElectricEggroll blocked all the attacks, then attacked wildly, doing more damage. The red player just couldn’t fight back and was eventually destroyed. Turning, he Watched as yellow and green fought for the emeralds. They were trading blows and doing serious damage to one another. But it was clear that yellow was going to win the battle. Deflecting an attack, the yellow user brought his blade down upon the user for the killing blow. Turning, he faced ElectricEggroll. But now that the yellow user had low health, he easily defeated him, then turned and collected the emeralds. Smiling, he raced back to the base. As he approached, he saw Hillbillypodunk standing on the wall, keeping a look out for the other teams. Running up, Eggroll stood in front of Hill. “I needed help you know.” He said with a smile. “If you got the emeralds, that doesn’t matter.” Hillbillypodunk said. “How many did you get anyway?” He asked. “Three.” Electric replied. “I’ll get the potions from the shop soon.” ElectricEggroll returned with two potions of invisibility and one potion of leaping. “I have four blocks of TNT from the shop.” Hillbillypodunk said with a wide grin as ElectricEggroll handed him a potion of invisibility. “Great!” Eggroll said. “Let’s go.” The two friends ran down the bridge and sprinted straight towards the yellow team’s base. Before running up the bridge, they drank their potions, then sprinted down the bridge with the TNT ready. They ran by one player as he ran to get an emerald or two. Once they reached the island, the prepared to ignite there TNT. Yellows bed was covered with three layers of end stone. KABBOOM! The TNT ignited revealing the bed underneath. Moving swiftly, Hillbillypodunk eliminated the bed as ElectricEggroll charged into the base. Yellow team went into panic as they tried to fight the invisible foe. Soon, ElectricEggroll eliminated one player from the game. And was about to attack the others when his invisibility potion wore out. Retreating quickly, he and Hillbillypodunk escaped. ElectricEggroll’s escape was easier since his leaping potion hadn’t run out of time yet. The yellow player that had returned from collecting emeralds surprised to see their bed was destroyed and even more surprised to find two blue players running down their bridge. With a quick strike, ElectricEggroll knocked the player into the void with lightning speed and precision. Two yellow players remained. Once they reached their base, they both went straight into the forge and collected a bunch of iron and gold. ElectricEggroll ran to the wall, then looked off at the center island, the giant tower in the center looked fantastic. But standing on the tower was a user. But there was something dark about this user. And then ElectricEggroll realized that this was no user. His eyes blazed bright white with hatred. Fear filled Eggroll’s mind as he looked at the place where the strange person was. But was he another person playing? He couldn’t be. “Who’s that?” Electric asked as he looked at the mysterious figure that stood atop the lighthouse tower at the center of the map. “um, I have no idea.” Hillbillypodunk said as he looked at the person with surprise in his eyes. The person’s eyes flared bright white as he glared at them. Suddenly, he disappeared. “Where did he go!?” Eggroll asked with a look of fear in his eyes. Instead of answering, Hillbillypodunk just turned and looked at ElectricEggroll with a look of fear in his eyes. One of there teammates ran up to them and drew back an arrow. Turning, Hillbillypodunk could tell that he was aiming at the spot where the strange person had been. Running down the bridge that led to the center island. Hillbillypodunk collected a couple of emeralds, then raced back to his base. Gripping the emerald’s tight, He raced towards the shop and realized that the item that he needed cost more emerald’s then he thought. I need more. He thought as he quickly got an iron sword from the chest that some user didn’t need, then raced towards the main island once again. A fireball suddenly flew at him with lightning speed. Diving for the island, Hill barely avoided the terrifying objects, then landed with a thud. That was too close. He thought as he sighed with relief, then raced towards the emerald forge. He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw a user standing off in the distance. The user was on team red and had a slick smile on his face. He must have shot that fireball. The user laughed when he saw his opponent. The user then smiled as he slowly drew a diamond sword, which cost emeralds. The user also had a diamond leggings and boots. The only armor parts that you could get in bedwars. You started with full leather armor, and always kept the leather chest plate and helmet. The armor types were chainmail. Iron. And diamond. Fear filled Hillbillypodunks mind as he stared at the strong user. How am I supposed to fight him!? Hill thought as he continued staring at the user. Suddenly, the user charged straight towards him at full speed. His eyes glaring at him with anger. His mind filled with thoughts of destroying him. An idea suddenly came into Hillbillypodunks mind. The player continued charging with lightning speed. But Hillbillypodunk just stood there and waited.

Chapter five
Battle in bedwars

Hillbillypodunk watched and waited for the player to reach him, his eyes watching the player keenly. He was almost there. Spinning around, Hill shot up the stair case that led to the top of the light tower. Following in hot pursuit, the player shot up the stair case, running as fast as he could. Hillbillypodunk knew he couldn’t out run the player, so he’d have to time this perfectly. Hill suddenly stopped and curled up in the shadows, right where the user was going to pass! He could here the footsteps of the player as he approached with incredible speed. Just as the player reached him, Hillbillypodunk swung his sword with all his might, striking the player off the edge. Looking down, he watched as the user took severe damage. Running down the steps as fast as he could, Hillbillypodunk reached him in seconds and brought his sword down upon him with lightning speed. Rolling to the side, the user ran back towards his base as fast as he could. Smiling, Hillbillypodunk ran up the stairs and into the second emerald forge. In the bedwars maps, there were two emerald forges that both created a single emerald at the same time. Hill grinned as he saw three emeralds pop into his inventory. Now he had five. Running down the stairs, he ran into the main forge and collected two more emeralds. He had seven. Perfect. He ran back to his base and got diamond armor from the shop. I need one more to get a potion of invisibility and a potion of leaping. Turning, he raced back towards the emerald forges once again. But as he ran, an arrow sailed towards him and struck him off and into the void. Fear filled his mind. “They have the emerald that I got now!” He said as he waited to respawn. Now, the team that had killed him could use it to make a potion and destroy there bed secretly. When ever another team killed you, the user that did it would get some of your iron, gold and emeralds. Meanwhile, ElectricEggroll wanted to make an assault on green. “Let’s go!” he said to his teammate as they ran across the bridge and towards the green team’s base. There bed was defended by a large pyramid of end stone. And had TNT proof glass on top. The inside of the pyramid, besides end stone, was a bunch of different blocks. The TNT that I have will be useless. I’ll have to use my pickaxe. Glancing down at his pic, Eggroll ran across greens large two block thick bridge. No one was there. Two players suddenly raced out of the forge and attacked. Turning, ElectricEggroll ran down a bridge that led to the diamond forge, his teammate following close behind. As he ran, ElectricEggroll could tell they were gaining on him and soon, he would be destroyed. When they reached the island, they stopped and prepared to fight. And then, big words showed up that terrified them both. BED DESTRYED! Oh no! Now that our beds destroyed, we can’t respawn! Taking a step back, ElectricEggroll now saw all four players from green team half way across the bridge and coming fast. “What do we do!” His teammate asked, but he didn’t answer. He was trying to think of some idea. Suddenly, an arrow sailed towards the approaching players and struck one off. Another arrow came and defeated the other one. ElectricEggroll looked towards the main island and could see his other teammate was the one who had fired the arrows. “Great job!” Electric yelled. Turning to his teammate, he said. “Let’s get this done.” Charging down the bridge, Green and blue clashed. Almost the instant this happened, ElectricEggroll’s teammate brought his blade down upon the lead green player, destroying his HP (Healthpoints) in seconds. The second user tried to knock him into the void, but he too was quickly destroyed as well. “Hurry! Let’s get out of here before they respawn!” ElectricEggroll yelled as he ran down the bridge that led to main island. Suddenly, his teammate stopped. “Come on!” SalmonTron asked as he looked back towards his teammate. And then he knew what he was looking at. Someone was firing five fireballs in front and behind his teammate! One of them was aimed straight at him! Turning, his teammate shot down the bridge, but a fireball suddenly struck the bridge under him, causing him to be launched into the void. The user looked back at him with fear in his eyes. “Nooo!” Eggroll yelled as he watched his teammate disappear. I need to get back to Hill. He thought as he took off running for there base, hoping that Hill was still alive. Running top speed, SalmonTron sprinted towards there base. Although he knew that they only had three players on there team. His teammate who had shot the green players off the edge using his bow skills, ran up to him and followed him down the bridge. Hillbillypodunk was waiting. But his health was low. Very low. “It took me a lot of strength to kill that red user. He said with a sigh. “I was just going to eat a golden apple.” “We need defenses.” ElectricEggroll said. “I think I know what to do.” There teammate said with a smile. He started to build a wall, trapping them in the forge and respawn room. “Collect a bunch of iron and gold. Get bed bugs and dream defenders.” There teammate said. And then words appeared. GREENS BED DESTROYED. Followed by words that said. REDS BED DESTROYED. But as they saved up, the could tell who was winning. Greens last player was almost dead by the time they had almost enough. They all had bows. A bunch of the bed bug spawn eggs, (Which were snowballs) and a couple dream defenders. And then, they heard mining. Red team was there. “Draw your bows!” Hillbillypodunk said. There bows creaked as they drew them back, ready to fire. Three. Two. One. Now! Hill yelled. The wall fell and on the other side was all of reds team. There wave of arrows tore into red team causing them to take a little bit of damage. “Bed bugs!” Hills and Electric’s teammate yelled as he threw all three snowballs directly at them. Hill and Eggroll did the same. Nine snowballs fell upon them immediately spawning silverfish. Big words appeared saying. BED DESTRUCTION. Bed destruction came far into the game. It was when everyone’s bed was destroyed at once. But what came next was terrifying. “Retreat!” One of reds players shouted. All four ran back towards there base as the silverfish sat there and waited for more enemies to come. “We did it!” ElectricEggroll said with a smile. “Not yet.” Hillbillypodunk said as he looked towards the clock. “It’s almost sudden death.” “Then we must prepare.” There teammate said as he ran towards there now damaged wall and looked towards red teams base. Running into the forge, Hill and ElectricEggroll started getting stronger weapons and stronger bows. Sudden death was almost there. They continued saving up items and prepared for the huge battle that was about to take place. Twenty seconds until sudden death. “Hurry!” Hillbillypodunk said. With ten seconds left, they were finally ready. And then, sudden death arrived. Three Ender dragons spawned at the center of the map. Two of them were reds and one of the was blues. They must have gotten dragon buff. That cost diamonds. Hill thought as the dragons prepared for there attack. One dragon was coming towards them full speed. “Fire!” ElectricEggroll yelled as three arrows streaked towards the dragon causing it to turn and retreat. They cheered. A smashing sound came from behind. The ender dragon smashed through the back of there base where the forge was and smashed into their wall, sending their teammate flying into the void before he could say a thing. Two blue players remained. They noticed reds team approaching them. Red started to cross the bridge when blue team’s ender dragon smashed into the player in the back of the horde, destroying him instantly. “Let’s go!” Someone from red yelled as she charged towards there wall. “Fireballs!” Hillbillypodunk shouted. Four fireballs smashed into their team causing another to fall into the void. Two vs two. When their enemies arrived, Hill and Eggroll drew their weapons and began to fight. Hillbillypodunk ducked under an attack, then spun around and delivered a strong blow to the side. Growling with anger, the player slashed at him once again causing him to take serious damage. Come on Hill. He thought as he dove towards the user, dealing serious damage and pushing him back. With one powerful strike, the user was nearly dead. One more blow and he was gone. Swinging with all his might, Hill continued to push the user back. And then he remembered that this was the user who he had fought earlier on the tower. The one he had nearly defeated. The user devoured a golden apple with lightning speed. Then charged. Hill and the user clashed. Both swinging with all there might. But Hill knew that in a 1vs1, he would lose. Hill had to think of something quick. The user laughed. Then swung for the killing blow. Hill dove for the side, barely avoiding the weapon. He then kicked the user near the void. Then dove and tackled the user off. Hill and the user both fell, but Hillbillypodunk grabbed the edge just in time. The user then grabbed his foot and held on. Hill kicked with all his might, but the user held on. Then climbed up to the island. The user climbed too. then threw an ender pearl at the main island. Trying to get away. But then. His ender pearl hit an ender dragon! The user fell into the void and was gone. Hillbillypodunk sighed with relief. Just then, ElectricEggroll brought his blade down upon the other user with lightning speed. Causing them to disappear with a pop. Huge words appeared. VICTORY! ElectricEggroll and Hillbillypodunk cheered as they prepared to go back to the bedwars lobby. When they appeared, Hill and Eggroll looked at each other and sighed. “We still don’t know who’s causing the glitches.” Electric said. “But now, we have a clue.” Hillbillypodunk said with a smile. “Now, we know where to look. In the hidden areas. This strange person could be just a glitch, or something far more serious.” “Like what?” asked ElectricEggroll “I don’t know. But it could be bad.” Hill replied “Well. What do you want to play now?” ElectricEggroll asked. Hill Smiled.
