The Mountain King's Hall
(Mitch's POV)
Ugh, I have no idea why everyone is still working on figuring out the mystery behind Skybrine's amulet. I don't see the reason to waste time on that-especially with a traitor. Though, it's unhealthy to hold grudges. But to mention mentally straining.
Me, Flame and Lia are sitting on a couch up stairs. Just doing whatever we are doing; Lia is reading something about war, I'm watching a commercial with some guy advertising noodles, and Flame is watching with me.
I know for sure that Lia and I are here because we don't want to help with the amulet thing. If it destroys Minecraftia, I guess we don't want a part of it. Flame is here because....I actually don't know; she sorta just follows me.
*DING* *DONG*
I hear loud footsteps running up the stairs."HEY GUYS! GET OFF YOUR BUTTS!" Jason says as Jerome leads us down stairs.
Halfway down, we see Skybrine standing at the door way. Sunlight illuminating the room with the door open. What is he doing here? Doesn't he have to plan to destroy everything we love?
"Does he have to be here?" Lia asks ready to go upstairs again. I already go up the stairs, not paying attention to anything else.
"Don't you have something better to do? Like terrorize a city?" I say before I walk all the way up; everyone downstairs unable to see me.
"All I did was come here for my amulet." Skybrine says in a different voice he usually has. He usually talks like he is angry at everything, now, he seems sad almost.
"Good, then you can leave soon." I say, trying to get on his nerves slightly.
Skybrine looks down, away from me, and gets his amulet back from Seto, who just sorta popped out of midair. "I'm sorry to inform you this but the only to possible answers we got were that you are Adam or he is dead. We are sorry. I highly doubt your Dad would keep prisoner." Seto says.
"That's ok. I already know the answer. Herobrine told me yesterday." Skybrine says, ready to leave.
"May I ask what happened? We are very curious." Seto says.
"Apparently, according to my Dad-" Skybrine takes a breathe, "I'm Adam." What?! Like the human that got captured? He's not even fazed! Woah.... Didn't I bump into an Adam at a super market when I was little? Highly unlikely.
"Wow, good for you. I bet that feels nice doesn't it? Everything you know gets shattered right in front of you?" I say. Oooh, I think I hit a nerve.
"If you want to kill me or beat me up so badly like you said in the woods, go ahead. Go ahead and kill me, it'll make both you and me feel better." Skybrine says. Or should I say Adam? I get a bit surprised at first, but it soon turns to boiling rage. It's not worth it. I climb all the way up the stairs, going into the couch where I sleep.
•••••A few Minutes earlier•••••
(Ty's POV)
Jordan, Quentin and I have been practicing outside. Why do I have to be the one to loose my powers? Ugh! This stinks, all I do is practice practice and practice.
"You know I could beat you if I had my powers." I say getting frustrated each time they get a good hit on me.
"But you don't have your powers Ty." Jordan says as he aims for my stomach, I block it with my arm then kick him. "See, you're already getting better. You would've flown if you had your powers, but last time, I hit you with that same move." Jordan says giving out constructive criticism. Huh, I guess I am getting better.
"If you can beat Jordan, maybe you can try to fight me." Quentin says watching us as we fought.
"I've never seen you fight before..." I say. It was true, I know that he is powerful-at least I think I do-but I do know is that he taught Jordan and Seto. Can he do magic too? "Do you have powers?"
"To be honest," Quentin says, he's gonna reveal something! This is going to be so cool! "I d-"
*DING* *DONG*
Quentin gets interrupted by the doorbell, can there be a worse time? For some reason, I have this sickening feeling in my stomach. I think I just want to see the secret,"Go on finish!" I say, if Quentin tells a secret it has to be good!
"Don't you want to see what's going on inside?" Quentin says trying to avoid telling. Aw man! I so close to find out just one more secret! Either way though, I don't really want to see what's going on inside, I have a bad feeling about this.
"Ya, come on Ty. I think you've had enough practicing today." Jordan says going inside.
"One more round?" I say pretending to get ready to fight. I really don't think it's a good idea to go inside.
"Ty....just get over it." Jordan says as he and Quentin go inside. I go inside anyways, I'm still a bit curious about who rang the doorbell.
I head inside, it was Skybrine! At least he came back for his amulet. A lot of people think that Skybrine isn't Adam (*cough cough* Mitch *cough cough* Lia. ) but Quentin, Seto, Jordan, and Flame think he's Adam. I think Jerome is in between actually.
"Finally you guys are here, me and Jason were just about to get you guys." Jerome says as Mitch angrily stomps up the stairs.
"Don't mind him, he's still holding that grudge on Skybrine." Jason says as Quentin and Jordan have a friendly conversation with Skybrine.
Skybrine notices me for a moment, then goes back to the conversation. I think I'm the only one he trusts.
"Hey, guys; do you want to fill us in?" I say asking Jerome and Jason.
"Well, Quentin and Jordan are caught up. No need to fill them in." Seto says.
"Then can you fill me in?" I say getting annoyed.
"Sheesh, you could've just asked." Jerome says. Why do I even try? "You guys were right. Skybrine is Adam." Jerome says nonchalantly.
"Oh....." I say, it's not really surprising. All the evidence points to Adam dead or Skybrine Adam.
"It was really obvious, just saying." Skybrine says suddenly joining this conversation, startling Jerome, Jason and I.
"Well duh." Seto says. "Haven't you guys every heard of the story 'In the Hall of the Mountain King'? It's a good story." I never heard of anything close of it. "It's a lot like what's going on."
"Isn't that a song, with like, no lyrics?" Skyb-Adam says quietly.
"Well....ya, but it's also a story." Jordan says. "In short, there's a kingdom. A king from another kingdom, called the Mountain King, wants to over thrown that kingdom." Not reminding me of anything from what's going on right now. Not even close. Jordan takes a small breath and continues, but I hardly listen. I glance at Adam, he's really interested into the story."They say he still seeks revenge..." Jordan ends the story, trying to scare everyone, it's no working in anyone.
"Dude, you can't scare us with a made up children's story." I say. "If a mountain king does show up, a king wouldn't be hard to defeat. Just the army, which I'm fairly certain he won't have.
"So who are we in the story?" Jason asks.
"We could be the Mountain King's guard!" Jordan says, only after a bit of thinking. Quentin replays to him with a really scary death glare. "I know.....sheesh." Jordan says calmly.
I think we should have another meeting about keeping secrets. This time, Quentin will be included and not be interrupting the meeting.
(Sky's POV)
This is one of the first moments in my life where I'm happy with someone I don't know (not including any violence). Just hearing them laugh and tease each other is actually really nice. They are all really good friends and I could tell that they wouldn't want to be anywhere else. I want to stay here forever.
I hear light footsteps go downstairs. It was Mitch and another girl. He looks at me, "Hey, sorry 'bout that. I've cooled down now." I smile at him. "That doesn't mean we're on completely good terms, but I'm ok with you being here now." Cool! Wait, does this mean I could stay! That would be amazing!
"Hey.....guys?" I say quietly. Only Mitch and Ty heard me. "Hello?" I say a bit louder, it caught Jerome's attention. "H-" I get cut off.
"ADAM WANTS TO SPEAK!" Jerome yells to everyone.
They all look at me, yearning to know what I want to say. I suddenly get scared and quiet. When did I become so shy? "Ummm....I don't know how to say this...." I say quietly. Why can't I just speak up! There is no point to be a coward right now!
"He said he wants to stay with us." Mitch says, smiling slightly. I don't think anyone realized that he actually helped me! This is a great first step! "You know I can still hear your thoughts right?" Mitch says turning towards me. Oh, oops.
"Now finally you choose to be friends!" Flame (I think that's her name) says. "With a sudden change of heart too, I really wish I could say the same for Lia" Flame looks upstairs and I hear light footsteps getting louder. " 5. 4. 3."
I hear loud footsteps running down stairs, if you guys keep running up and down the stairs, you'll trip. "JEROME SCREAMED ADAM'S NAME, NOW I HEAR FLAME SAYING YOU GUYS ARE FRIENDS! WHAT'S GOING ON!" The girl with blue hair says as she runs down the stairs.
"Oh, that's what you're counting down for." Jordan says. He shakes his head. "Do I really have to be a part of this?" Is there something that I don't know, cause I'm completely lost.
"Yes." Everyone says simultaneously.
"3. 2." Flame keeps counting.
"Can you tell me what's going on now?" Lia says.
"1." Flame stopped the countdown. Lia looks at me with a cold glare.
"May I ask what is he doing here?" The blue says putting her fingers on the bridge of her nose.
"He wants to stay here for a bit." Mitch says. He glances at Jordan for a bit and Jordan sighs.
"Wait, let me just say something. He says he's Adam, we don't have completely proof. Also, just because he's gotten shyer doesn't mean he could kill us." Jordan says looking at me. He doesn't look mean. That doesn't mean he's kind. "If you want to do that. I won't stop you."
"Someone agrees with me!" The bluenett says. Jordan looks at her for a bit and she stays quiet.
"Again, I won't attack you!" I say telling everyone. "If you want to chain me and keep me prisoner, be my guest." I say looking at everyone. I stare a bit at Ty to see if he would defend me.
"I trust you, don't worry." Ty says smiling softly at me. He puts his hand out, face down, waiting for someone else to do the same.
Mitch puts his hand on top of Ty's. "So do I, but it can be easily broken." Mitch says giving me a warning.
"I trust you." Seto says, coming from nowhere. He puts his hand on top of theirs.
"Same." Jason says. Doing the same thing, isn't this what they do in sports or something?
"Aye." Jerome was slightly muffled trying to find a way through the small circle they were making. He found his way by crawling. We all laughed.
"Yup." Quentin says. That doesn't even make sense!
"Me too!" Jordan exclaimed. We all look at him. "What? Just because I ask if you trust him, doesn't mean I don't!"
"I do too!" Flame says being squished.
Everyone looks at-I think her name is Lia-she rolls her eyes. "Ya, fine." Everyone's hands were now on top of each other.
Everyone looks at me, I get a funny feeling in my stomach. "What?" I say. Everyone chuckles.
"Don't you trust yourself?" Ty asks. Signaling for me to put my hand too.
I put my hand on top of everyone else's. "Of course I do!"
"Well, welcome to Team Crafted then." Seto says.
"I think we should all properly introduce ourselves. I'm not even sure if you know all our names." Jordan says smiling sheepishly. I guess I really am staying!

A/N: If you don't know the song 'In the Hall of the Mountain King' either look it up or watch that Team Crafted video race thing.
Question poll:
1.Star Wars
2. Star Trek
3. To nerdy for you.
I only choose Star Wars because I've never seen a full movie of Star Trek. I should really watch it, I've seen a part of 2 movies. (I don't know which one) It seems interesting.
