Banishment

Plains Biome, OverWorld

Day

Daniel and Petra were dragging EnderBrine over to the Nether Portal. Daniel held one arm, while Petra held the other. Carlily walked with HeroBrine over to the portal. She wasn't going to like seeing her son be banished, but it was the only thing the good guys could do to prevent them from starting another war.

Daniel and Petra threw EnderBrine onto the ground just two blocks in front of the Portal. Everyone surrounded the portal and EnderBrine. If he tried to flee, he wouldn't get very far.

"Get up EnderBrine!" Daniel said, "your fight is over. No more will you wreak havoc on the OverWorld!"

As EnderBrine got back up onto his feet, he looked at everyone surrounding him. Elderon landed right on the opposite side of the portal. EnderBrine smiled.

"Fine, fine," EnderBrine said, "you all win. I surrender!"

"Why would you do something to this extreme? Mineaggedon? Killing innocent blockheads? Why?" Petra asked.

"You wouldn't understand if I told you," EnderBrine said, "it's too complicated."

"Try us," Petra responded, "we're not as dumb as you thought we were!"

"I see that very clearly now. I failed. You succeeded. My plan was bound for failure from the beginning. I should've known this would happen," EnderBrine said as he looked back at the Nether Portal behind him.

"You should've never gone through with your plan. Knowing you would fail in the end," Daniel said.

EnderBrine looked away from the portal and gazed at everyone surrounding him. HeroBrine was standing next to his mother Carlily.

"You're a traitor to me and your brother!" EnderBrine said angrily, "you're the reason we failed! You're pathetic!"

"I know and I'm not offended by your mean comment. I did what I thought was right. You were in over your head. I will no longer bow down to you. And neither will anyone else standing here today!" HeroBrine said.

"I gave you everything! Power. A home. You name it, I gave it to you. You're really going to throw all of that away for these crazy blockheads?" EnderBrine asked.

"I've seen the positive side of everything. You only showed me the negative side of things. I was trained to be a demigod. But I don't want that anymore. I want to be good and do good things. And most of all, I want to be with my mother," HeroBrine said.

"Blah, blah, blah! That sounds stupid!" EnderBrine said.

After he had said that, Daniel and Petra had heard enough.

"Okay tough guy. Enough of your bickering! You're done!" Daniel said.

Petra and Daniel grabbed his arms and again dragged him closer to the portal. Before they tossed him into the portal, he said one last thing.

"This isn't the end. We'll meet again. I was only the first of what's to come. I've seen a vision into the future. By the looks of it, it doesn't look good. Take this as a warning! One of those visions involves Daniel and Petra. You have been warned!" EnderBrine said as Daniel and Petra tossed him into the nether portal.

Merlin broke the nether portal, instantly deactivating it. HeroBrine remained, only because Daniel and Petra heard that he wanted to become a good blockhead and help make the OverWorld a safer place. So he remained. The only one to be banished was EnderBrine.

"Now destroy any evidence of this nether portal, Merlin," Daniel said. "I don't want anyone getting the idea of bringing him back. We've dealt with enough these past few days."

"I will do that," Merlin responded.

Merlin was beginning to think of what the witch had told him. There was clearly a catch to him obtaining the obsidian so easily. But what was it? He has to find out before it's too late. He didn't want to tell the others how he obtained the obsidian because it would upset them in ways he thought would be bad.

"So what do we do now?" Romeo asked, "we can't just live out here in the open."

Daniel and Petra glanced at one another. They looked at their surroundings. Nothing but plains for miles. "How about we live here?" Daniel proposed.

"Live here? Where we just fought a tough battle?" Romeo asked.

"Of course. We could build a kingdom," Daniel said as Petra interrupted him.

As everyone was talking, a bright light came descending down from the sky. Once the bright light touched the ground, it dimmed away. A beautiful and majestic lady appeared after her light disappeared.

Everyone was looking at her in "awe." No one had any words. She was so beautiful, Daniel and Romeo's mouths dropped.

Brown hair, brown eyes, and an all white dress. Of course, she wasn't wearing shoes. She was wearing sandals. She had a golden tiara on her head.

"Ladies and gentleblocks," the woman said, "my name is Victoria. I've come down from the skies above to congratulate you on your first victory. EnderBrine and NetherBrine will no longer be a problem to the Gods as for you all have successfully banished him to the Nether Realm."

"Our first victory? What does that mean?" Daniel asked.

Victoria smiled. She walked up to Daniel. Everyone moved out of the way as she walked up to him. "Hold out your hands."

Daniel held out his hands. Victoria grabbed them. "By the power invested in me, I hereby declare you King of the OverWorld."

"Holy coconuts!" Merlin said, amazed at the gift Daniel was given. "There hasn't been a King or Queen in the OverWorld for centuries. Now that's one heck of a gift to receive."

"King Daniel," Victoria said as she took a step back and bowed down to Daniel. Victoria glanced over at Petra. She stood up straight again and walked over to Petra.

"A King always needs a Queen," Victoria said as she grabbed Petra's hands. "I hereby grant you the gift of being King Daniel's Queen. Congratulations, my dear."

Petra glanced over at Daniel. A big cheesy smile appeared on her face. Daniel smiled too.

"As for King Daniel and Queen Petra, I also am giving you the gift of this," Victoria said as she turned around.

She was looking in the direction of plain fields for miles. She tapped her chin, thinking of what she was going to give the heroes of the OverWorld. Then she got an idea.

"We've been talking about how we could change the looks of the Plains Biome. I think this should do the trick," Victoria said as she raised her arms high into the air above her head.

As she did that, blocks began flying around in the air. Wooden blocks, cobblestone, glass, and gravel blocks. What was she building?

As the blocks began to set into place, it became apparent what she was building for everyone. A large cobblestone Castle was nearing completion. She lowered her arms and turned around. The blocks were still flying around and being situated into their permanent spots.

"A Kingdom for the noblest warriors there is," Victoria said, "a gift from all of the Gods of the OverWorld, I declare this—the Kingdom of the Plains."

Daniel and Petra stayed behind as everyone else rushed towards their new homes, Merlin and Ceres included. Victoria approached Daniel and Petra. She put her hands behind her back and smiled.

"You two truly did something the Gods and I didn't see coming. We've been trying to stop EnderBrine and NetherBrine for ages. We are forever in your debt Daniel and Petra. We are eternally grateful," Victoria said.

"Thank you," Petra said, "and I don't believe you're forever in our debt. Consider it repaid. You've given us more than we could have ever asked for."

"I agree with Petra," Daniel said, "thank you so, so much."

"We'll be keeping a close eye on you guys. Of course we'll only do so to make sure you're all safe and sound," Victoria said, "it was a pleasure meeting you all. Now go and lead your Kingdom!"

"We will definitely do that. You and the others are always welcome to visit," Petra said.

"I will remember that your majesty," Victoria said as she took one step back. Before vanishing into thin air, she smiled at them. "All is well in the OverWorld."

She then vanished into thin air. Golden particles rose into the air and then fizzled away. Daniel and Petra both glanced at each other. They were extremely happy and grateful for the gifts the Gods have given them.

"What do we do now?" Petra asked.

"Well for starters we need to build a statue, build Elderon a home to live in, and then help our friends settle into their new homes of course," Daniel responded.

"You're going to let me stay? Here at your Kingdom?" Elderon asked.

Daniel and Petra turned their heads around and looked up at Elderon. He was sitting down looking down at them.

"Of course. You're our friend. You helped us a great deal during battle. How did NetherBrine taste when you ate him?" Petra asked, joking around about NetherBrine.

"He tasted like a burnt piece of wood," Elderon said, "but he'll be digested sooner or later. And we all know what happens after that."

Daniel and Petra both giggled slightly. "No need to tell us. We know," Daniel said.

"Let's go see what our friends are up to. Then get settled in," Petra said, "I'm dying to see the castle."

Daniel smiled and then bowed to Petra. "After you my Queen."

"Why thank you my King," Petra responded. She began walking towards the Kingdom. Daniel and Elderon followed behind her.

As they were walking towards their new home, fireworks shot up into the air. Someone from inside the walls of the kingdom was lighting them off. Boom after boom was heard as the fireworks detonated in the air. The colors of those fireworks were red, blue, and green.

"Let's hope nothing bad comes about ever again," Daniel said.

"If it does, we'll be ready to put up a fight. We did it once before, and we'll do it again," Petra responded. "Now let's go see our castle and explore our Kingdom."

"Yes let's do that," Daniel said, "I'm excited to see everything."

And just like that, their first epic adventure was finished. Daniel and Petra both became a King and Queen. While also being heroes. Their story will forever be remembered in the history books. But little did they know, that this was only the beginning of what's to come.

Taiga Biome, OverWorld

Day

The man stood in place looking at the wall with item frames hanging on it. He was examining all seven remaining item frames. The first one used to have a picture of the Brine Family. The second item frame showed a picture of a woman.

Under all of the items frames were oak wood signs. Under the first one, the sign read:

Brine Family

&

Mineaggedon

Outcome: FAILED

The sign under the second one read:

The Evil Queen Rises

Outcome: ONGOING

"What's the next phase in our plan?" Peter, David's friend, asked. David glanced to his right at Peter. He was still tapping his chin.

"We let Scarlet have a try," David responded.

"How do we know this phase won't fail too?" Peter asked.

"Because she's a distant friend of NetherBrine's. And once she finds out that NetherBrine is dead, she will freak out," David said.

"But will she win?" Peter asked.

"Patience my friend. We'll find out soon," David said, "but for now, we watch and wait to see what happens. They definitely won't see this one coming."
