I'd never survive in the nether, I'd die from the heat in about a second. I hate the heat. I love winter, so cold and crisp and not summer.

Chapter 18

Cold fingers of doubt crept into GenerikB's mind as he watched Avidya and Anderz set up the nether portal. They were outfitted in diamond armour and weapons, as was he, but despite this, the two of them looked incredibly solemn and morose.

Anderz placed the last block of obsidian in the frame, standing back from the portal, panting. Avidya carefully lit in, jumping back as the obsidian quivered and fluxed, before the distinct purple haze filled the empty cavity, humming ominously. GenerikB shivered slightly and the unnatural sounds the portal made.

“Before we go in, come here you two.” Avidya said as he pulled a small jar of paint from his pack. “I don't want to lose either of you, we're painting the front and back of the chestpieces with a mark.”

Anderz nodded emphatically, standing in front of Avidya. “Paint a god damned viking war ship! I'll show those...”Anderz trailed off as Avidya rolled his eyes, painting a vaguely blobby “warship” on Anderz armor.

“What do you want on your armor, Genny?” Avidya asked as GenerikB got ready to get painted. “I don't know, a large H for hermit maybe?” Avidya nodded, painting a much neater H on the front and back of GenerikB's armor.

Anderz grabbed the paint, putting a rough blob thing on the front and back of Avidya. “There, that zen thing you like!” Anderz said, clearly proud of his work. Avidya sighed, before turning towards the portal apprehensively.

“We all go in at the same time. Yes, it'll be uncomfortable. We stick together. We go quickly. No wandering around. If we do get separated, try and make your way back to the portal and stay there until we're all back there.” Avidya frowned, grabbing Anderz and GenerikB's hands, stepping into the portal.

The absolutely searing heat of the nether hit Avidya in the chest like a freight train, causing him to double over in pain, gasping. Groaning, he pulled himself upright, blinking as he tried to see through the haze.

He sighed silently to himself as he looked around and saw Anderz and GenerikB nowhere to be seen. Turning around, he groaned as he realized he was nowhere near the nether portal. He had no idea how he managed to get lost in the nether without even moving. This was exactly what he feared would happen again.

Sitting down as he collected his thoughts, his mind wandered to what happened the last time the two of them had gone into the nether at Anderz insistence. They had both gotten lost almost immediately. Anderz had been taken hostage by the pigmen, who by all accounts were far more sentient then they should be. They had been taking him to...someone. At first, they had thought the pigmen might have been trying to take Anderz to Zisteau, but they didn't seem to know who they were talking about. They had managed to escape, but Avidya was still nervous that the pigmen apparently had managed to make a society, have a hierarchal structure, and a king somewhere. Who wasn't Zisteau. He just hoped Anderz and GenerikB were safe together.

A heavy hoof fell upon his shoulder, making him look upwards sharply. A patrol of pigmen had found him already as he tried to catch his breath. He closed his eyes as he stood up slowly.

“Now gentlemen, I do hope we'll be polite this time? I am in no position to take all five...ok, seven of you at once. So let's just go wherever you were going to take me anyway?” One of the zombie pigmen snorted, holding out his hand. “I think I can walk without assistance, thank you.” The pigman snorted and said something in the high pitched squeeling tongue. Avidya felt the flat of a heavy blade hit him on the back of the head, causing his helmet to ring, sending him flying to the ground. As he rolled over, the crackle of magic cast darkness over his eyes. His idly thought that magic was very unlike zombie pigmen as he felt them tie him up.

Waking up, Avidya found himself in a small netherbrick cell, stripped of his armor and weapons. Rubbing his head, he found it sore and tender. Someone had wrapped a bandage around it carefully. He pursed his lips, trying to think of what to do. He really didn't want to wait for Anderz and GenerikB, because he knew exactly what kind of plan Anderz would have. It didn't fill him with confidence.

“Oh, you're awake! Delightful!” A hollow voice rang through the chamber, making him look up. There were security cameras in the cell. “Pigmen don't use security cameras.” Avidya said calmly, frowning. “You're right, they don't. I do though! Hard to get security cameras here, but with a bit of help and a lot of stealing, I got them here!”

Avidya sat down crossed leg, closing his eyes as he quietly began counting slowly. “I always thought the cool collected Avidya thing was just a facade, but man, you really are all zen, aren't you?” Avidya ignored the voice, continuing to count slowly. He frowned as he opened his eyes.

“You shouldn't be on the server at all, Vechs. What are you doing here?” Avidya almost smirked as he heard no reply.

A soft whine filled the room as the steel door opened, revealing Vechs. He stood frowning at Avidya, two zombie pigmen standing behind him. “You weren't suppose to guess that soon. That's no fun!” Vechs said, pouting.

Avidya tilted his head, frowning. “You didn't answer my question.” Vechs frowned at Avidya, before snapping his fingers at the pigmen who entered the the cell, going to pick Avidya up. Avidya shook his head, standing up by himself. The four of them made their way down the hall, coming to a larger cell with a table in it. Vechs indicated Avidya should sit as he himself sat in one of the chairs, the two pigmen standing sentry by the door, watching Avidya suspiciously.

“Well, since I already have your other two friends, I guess there's no loss in telling you stuff. GenerikB isn't talking, and Anderz...” Vechs sighed, a faint smile on his lips. “Anderz is unconscious again because otherwise he'd be too much of a handful, even for all the pigmen ever. He did take out four pigmen by himself before the rest overpowered him. They were pissed at that.” The pigmen grunted slightly, grumbling unhappily. Vechs frowned at them, causing them to shut up.

Vechs leaned back in the chair before flailing slightly, grabbing the table to catch balance as Avidya grinned at him. “Don't think I'm not willing to do terrible things to you, Avidya. Just because you're the only person who can hopefully hold a conversation doesn't mean I'm not willing to cause you a lot of pain if you don't listen to me.”

Avidya shrugged, indifferent. “You say this all the time, Vechs. You're more of a disobedient puppy then the monster you pretend to be. If I'm scared of anything on this server, it most certainly isn't you.” Avidya smiled at Vechs, calm and serene.

Vechs growled at Avidya, growing angrier. “Should have just left you in the cell. Take him back. Starve him for awhile. You have no idea what's happening with Guude or the others, do you? We'll see how zen you can stay when you learn just what's happened in your absence.” Avidya frowned slightly, but didn't say anything as the pigmen escorted him from the room.

Vechs frowned, tapping his fingers against the heavy stone table. Guude had asked him to come to the server early, a surprise for Zisteau. When he had, instead of being in spawn, he found himself here in the nether. When he tried to exit, pigmen had grabbed him and pulled him away from the portal in time to see the portal quake and hum with an angry presence. The pigmen seemed to like him for some reason. The told him what was happening in the overworld. So now he was stuck here, safe from the entity the pigmen told him they saw. But stuck. And without Zisteau to talk to. Maybe Avidya would tell him why Anderz was ranting about golden apples, and why GenerikB looked like someone had hit him over the head with a hammer a few times.

He sighed softly. He didn't think Avidya would believe him if he told him he just wanted to help everyone. It wasn't a lie. He just wasn't going to tell him he wanted to take over also. Pursing his lips, he grumbled as he went to find Anderz and hear him rant more. Maybe something he said would make sense. Somehow. And if it didn't, at least angry viking rants were more amusing to listen to then watching Avidya sit and be all...calm.

Ah Anderz how I would love to hear the rant he puts out :D

You don't like summer? Hmm... I like it at the beginning then near the end I just want it to go away but then I'm like that with all the seasons :P

Haha, I'm like the complete opposite XD I'm the type of person who wears long sleeves and sweats in the dead of summer, simply because I love being warm <3

But I have to admit, fall is my favorite season. No allergies, my writing inspiration levels go up as well as my productivity, not too cold, etc.
