We begin this chapter with Y/n following Otto to the new portal that has been made.
Y/n: Hey Otto.
Otto: Yes Y/n?
Y/n: Before this manhunt game begins can I ask a favor of you?
Otto: Well it depends on what the favor is.
Y/n: It's nothing crazy, I just want to ask you to hold my gear for me and give it back to me when I win this manhunt game.
Otto: I can do that, but are you really sure that you can do this?
Y/n: What do you mean?
Otto: Well you're going to have to kill the Ender Dragon, that alone would get anyone nervous, but not only are you going to fight the Ender Dragon, you are going to do so while three people are trying to hunt you down and try to stop you from winning the game. You are also only going to have one day to get to the End and kill the Ender Dragon.
Y/n: One day? That's fine.
Otto: Fine? You're not even the slightest bit worried about the situation?
Y/n: You want me to be completely honest with you?
Otto: Yes, I would like that.
Y/n: I am not the slightest bit worried about my situation, I have played this game multiple times with some friends of mine, friends that happen to be very skilled in combat, alchemy, crafting, and enchanting. In the other times I've played this game with them I've gone to the End and killed the Ender Dragon in less than a day on multiple occasions. I also highly doubt that anyone you pick from here is nearly as good as my old friends in any of those categories.
Otto: ...
Y/n: You gonna say anything?
Otto: How could you do this multiple times?
Y/n: What?
Otto: Every world only has one End and one Ender Dragon. So how can you do this multiple times?
Y/n: ... That I can't tell you... Sorry.
Otto: I see...
Y/n: Who am I going up against anyway?
Otto: You'll be introduced to them when we meet up with Hadrian and Mevia, but their names are Lynn, John, and Folke.
*Meanwhile with Hadrian*
Hadrian: Grrrr, WHAT'S TAKING SLAB SO LONG?!?!
Mevia: He'll be here momentarily Hadrian, be patient.
*Slab enters the portal room with three people*
Slab: Sorry I'm late boss, but I found the three you wanted in the mines.
Hadrian: Next time Slab don't take too long. Now, you three come here.
???: What's the occasion? I thought I was supposed to be in the mines a lot longer.
Hadrian: Well plans have changed Folke...
???: Hmm... What do you mean "plans have changed?"
Hadrian: I will explain everything once Otto gets back here with the Challenger John.
???: Umm... As much as I'm happy to be out of the mines can I have something to eat? I'm starving!
Hadrian: Oh, right! I almost forgot that you're all supposed to be fed beforehand. Thanks for reminding me Lynn.
Hadrian began giving the three bread to start things off, once that was done they waited silently until Otto arrived to explain everything.
*Otto comes into the room with you following behind him*
Otto: I brought Y/n.
Hadrian: Good. Now I can finally explain what's going on. Y/n come here.
*You walk towards Hadrian and stand next to him.*
Hadrian: This man right here is who you could thank for you three being taken out of the mines, however you are not taken out just because he told us to. You are out of the mines because you three are the best competitors we have and he asked for the best specifically.
Lynn: Uhhh... Why did he ask for the best competitors though?
Hadrian: I'm getting to that! Ahem, you three will be working together against this young man right here.
Folke: Us three against him? You're joking right?
Hadrian: I am not joking, you three will have to work together against him in a new game that he has played before. Believe me when I say it will be a lot harder for him than it will be for you.
John: What game is it you speak of?
Hadrian: It's a game called Manhunt, in this game you three will have to stop him from killing the Ender Dragon.
Folke: ... Really? That's it? This'll be easy and fun.
Otto: I wouldn't be so sure.
Hadrian: What do you mean Otto?
Otto: Y/n here told me that he's done this multiple times before, and on multiple occasions he's gone to the End and killed the Ender Dragon in less than a day.
Mevia: He WHAT?!
Lynn: How is that possible?!
Folke: How does he even survive that?!
John: ...
Y/n: If you want my honest opinion... It wasn't that hard.
Hadrian: I-uhh... Ahem, Otto will go through the rules with you three, Slab you're dismissed. Mevia can I speak to you for a moment alone?
*They all go to separate parts of the room to talk while you're just there, alone.*
Y/n: (... Those three don't look like much, but if there's anything I've learned, it's to not judge a book by its cover.)
*Meanwhile with Hadrian*
Mevia: 'It has got to be a joke! There's no way he's this good! It's all some lie!'
Hadrian: 'Mevia you and I both know that Otto is not a liar. Not only that but think for a moment. How would he know of this game if he didn't play it before? Why would he challenge us to this game if he knew he had no chance of winning? He knows what he's doing Mevia, let's just let things unfold and if he wins we let him go... I knew he was really good fighter looking in the Atlas, but I didn't expect him to kill the Ender Dragon in less than a day!'
*With the three*
Otto has finished telling the three the rules of manhunt and left to get your items.
Folke: 'So John what do you think?'
John: 'This Y/n... It seems there's more than meets the eye with him...'
Lynn: 'So when this game starts what's the plan?'
John: 'Simple, Folke and I will keep on him while you gather food, and materials. We'll know where he is at all times with the compasses they'll give us so we can't lose him.'
Lynn: 'How will I find you guys though?'
John: 'If he manages to get away we'll make a tall tower so you can find us easier, we'll be in his general direction so you should find us easily.'
Folke: 'With that out of the way, what will we do if he gets to the End?'
John: 'Two things, we'll keep him from hurting the Ender Dragon, and we'll try to kill him.'
*Back with you*
Y/n: (I wonder... If they can't see the coordinates in the map then that means I'll know what level to be at to find diamonds, but they won't have a clue how deep underground they are... Man I have a lot of advantages with these game boosts.)
Otto: Everyone gather around!
With that said everyone made their way towards Otto, Hadrian, and Mevia who were standing next to the portal.
Otto: Everything is ready and the game will begin momentarily, however Mevia will have invisible potions and will overlook the game to make sure no one is cheating.
Y/n: How do I know she won't assist the hunters while I'm away doing my own thing?
Hadrian: You don't have to worry about that Y/n besides 'I'm playing fair this one time.'
When Hadrian said that you were very confused, but then it hit you. It made sense that he would play fair, Tim wasn't being talked about by everyone in the village, not only that but you also didn't see a single picture of Tim in the village at all.
Y/n: (Am I gonna replace Tim? Are they gonna talk about me instead?)
Otto: Now with that out of the way, Y/n if you please?
Y/n: Hmm? Oh, right!
You then proceeded to give Otto everything you had which included a full set of enchanted iron armor, an enchanted iron sword and pickaxe, an enchanted bow, a good amount of steak, a couple of tipped arrows, a few potions, a map, and last but not least the totem of undying.
Y/n: Once I win I expect everything to be given back to me.
Otto: You have my word Y/n
Y/n: Ok then, let's get going.
Once that was done you, Mevia, and the three hunters went through the portal. Once all of you went through the portal Mevia took an invisibility potion, you then lead the other hunters to a spot you found suitable for the game to begin (picture above). You then began to look around, the three surrounded you, but they weren't really ready for what you did next... You punched Folke really hard in the face, so hard he fell to the ground and once he fell you ran into the plains biome.
Y/n: (I probably should've held back on that punch a bit... It looked like he was diving into the ground.)
*With the three*
Folke: AGH! SON OF A-
Lynn: Folke! Are you ok?!
Folke: I'M FINE!! Just stick to the plan Lynn! Let's get after him John!
*With you*
Y/n: (Jeez, they really weren't expecting that... They gave me enough time to mine a tree... heh, rookies.)
By the time John and Folke caught up with you you already had a wooden axe, and a wooden pickaxe.
Y/n: (Ok they're on my tail... The girl isn't with them which means shes probably gathering resources... Should I fight them? ... Eh what could go wrong?)
After that you turned around to face them, John came in first and tried to get you distracted so Folke could come from behind to get you in a headlock, but you saw this coming. Once Folke got close enough you turned around full swing with wooden axe in hand and landed a critical hit on Folke, he fell on the ground and you were going to end it, but John punched you in the face. He was hoping to distract you, but you ended up fainting a swing at him which caused him to do an unnecessary dodge. Once he was gone you looked to see Folke had already gotten up and was about to swing a right hook at you, but everything was slow for you so you easily dodged it and swung your wooden axe at him again. Folke tumbled towards John and they began to rethink their plan.
Folke: 'He's gonna kill me! Should we just regroup with Lynn and gear up before we go after him?!'
John: 'If we do that he'll gear up as well.'
Folke: 'But if we're all together we'll have a better chance!'
John: '... Ok let's do it, I'll go mining while you go back with Lynn to heal up. That cave in the side of the mountain is where I'll start mining. Once you find Lynn and heal up we'll regroup in that cave.'
Folke: 'Understood.'
Y/n: (They're planning on running off? Good I can mine and get better stuff than them since I can do it non-stop without getting tired... I just need to gather food.)
Both of the hunters ran off leaving you alone, with them out of the way you decided to gather food before mining.
*5 minutes later*
You've gathered about 20 raw beef from the cows in this biome and once that was done you also decided to get some sugar cane, and went to chop down one more tree, then went on to find a mine.
*With Folke*
Folke: LYNN!! WHERE ARE YOU?!?!
Lynn: Folke?! What're you doing here? Where's John?
Folke: Long story short John and I got our asses handed to us so we decided to change our plan. John is out mining and I came here to heal up. Now do you have some food?
Lynn: Uh, Yes I do but it's raw.
Folke: Ok then, follow me I'll lead you to John so we can cook up the food.
Lynn: Ok
*With John*
John: (This Y/n is better in combat than I thought... But if he's good in combat he can't be good in anything else... He most likely can't brew potions like Lynn can, and he probably can't enchant things like I can.)
*With you*
Y/n: *Sneeze* Ehhhh, ok let's see here...
You have already made two furnaces and began smelting your iron ore. When you had enough you made an iron sword and an iron pickaxe. You went deeper down the cave system to look for anything useful, in 10 minutes you have already found some lapis, and some redstone. You then went back to your two furnaces and crafting table and made a locator map to lock on your coordinates and to know if the hunters were close. Once that was done you mined down to 12 blocks from bedrock and began strip mining. While you were already doing this John and the others were struggling more or less, they didn't really know that iron can only be found below sea level so it took them longer to find iron (since this takes place before episode 1 that means almost nobody knows how to make a shield). After 15 minutes you have found enough diamonds to make a diamond sword, a diamond pickaxe and an enchantment table. You then gave your sword sharpness 4, unbreaking 3, fire aspect 1, and knock back 2. You also gave your pickaxe unbreaking 3, efficiency 3, and fortune 3.
Y/n: (Ok now I should have a diamond set in no time.)
*With John*
John: Ok Folke did you find diamonds?
Folke: No not yet.
John: Damn... Lynn how many apples do you have?
Lynn: I have six apples.
John: Ok give them to me, I have enough gold to make golden apples.
Lynn: Ok, here.
John: (So far so good... We have full iron armor and weapons... All we need now is an enchantment table to enchant what we have.)
*With you*
Y/n: (What are these hunters doing? Techno and Dream would never let me catch this much of a break...)
*20 minutes later*
Y/n: (Ok, now I have a full set of enchanted diamond armor... *Sigh* this isn't much of a challenge anymore... Might as well make that nether portal.)
*With John*
John: Ok we have enchanted iron armor, enchanted diamond swords, and golden apples... I'd say we're ready.
Folke: Let's get this bastard.
Lynn: Yeah!
They then pull out the compass that leads them to you, but what they don't know is that you're getting ready to go in the nether to get blaze rods...
(A/n: And that's another chapter done! The next chapter will be more intense don't you worry, but for who? You'll find out in the next chapter! See ya!)
