As the Cross-Craft Battledome game bell rang in the distance, two beings watched the players scramble to start gathering supplies. The first being watched a Testificate in a white lab coat with a nefarious expression hook up two command blocks to a redstone repeater. As the Testificate pulled a lever, the command blocks activated. A frame of bedrock appeared, and the first being fired a blast of white energy from his hand into the portal. As it entered the frame, it stopped, then exploded into a screen of rainbow colors.
"It is done, Denton." the being said, pleased with the result. "Your plan...paid off."
"As it should, Her..."
"DON'T SAY MY NAME ON THIS SERVER!" the being roared.
"Sorry." Denton said pulling up his hood.
"You had better be." the being said, as he walked toward the command blocks. As he passed them, he smiled, showing clear white teeth and a evil smile. As the being entered the rainbow vortex, Denton smiled, pulled out a third command block, and entered behind the being. As they entered the portal, Denton cackled, then he vanished.
=====================================================================================================
As the bell rang, Crafters sprung out from the starting point to gather resources. Pairing up, two minecrafters sped off into the hills. One was wearing a blue shirt, scuffed white pants, boots, goggles, and black gloves. He had brown hair and blue eyes. The other was wearing a black and grey jumpsuit, with a gold medallion and gloves. His sunglasses covered his eyes, but a wild smile was plastered on his face.
"Keep up man!" the second crafter said jokingly.
"I'm trying, Adam!" the first said, nearly out of breath.
Adam smiled, and as the first crafter caught up, Adam abruptly stopped, causing the first crafter to slip and skid straight into a tree.
"OUCH!" he yelled, as he took a heart of damage from the impact. Rubbing his face, he looked up at Adam.
"What is it?" he said, slightly annoyed.
"Phillip, What's that Gazebo-thingy doing here?"
"What Gazeb-oh, no idea completely." Phillip said, looking at the structure. It was made out of mossy stone bricks, with a few clean stone bricks here and there. The bedrock portal shone brightly, illuminating the whole structure.
"What's it doing here?" Adam said, confused, brushing his hand along the walls.
"As I said, no idea. This isn't part of the map, so why would the world generate this?" Phillip replied.
"Dunno. So, what do we do?"
"Let's put out a server message. Let's get everyone here." Phillip said, and as Adam nodded and pulled up the chat screen, Phillip looked around in the back of the Gazebo. He brushed aside a few vines and moss, and standing on a stone block was a Command Block. He picked it up and put it in his inventory. At that moment, the server message was broadcast, and he could see that chat messages coming in from the different players. As he made his way back to Adam, he failed to notice the command block glowing slightly he passed by the portal. As he sat down next to Adam, he could see a few Crafters coming up the hill towards them. First came Jason, then Mitch, followed by Jerome, Ty, Ian, and Quentin. Phillip smiled to himself at seeing the members of Team Crafted together again. Around fifteen minutes later, the other team arrived. Led by Lachlan and Vikk, they eventually settled themselves down. A few were looking in interest towards the portal. Adam stood up and cleared his throat.
"Well, I guess you are all wondering why I brought you guys here." Adam said, and there were sounds of agreement from the two teams. "Thing is, Phillip and I found this bedrock portal, and we're not sure where it leads. Dunno who made it as well. So, what should we do?"
After around fifteen minutes of debating, they decided to go through. As they lined up to enter, Phillip checked the command block in his inventory. As it became his turn to go through, he closed his eyes and jumped into the vortex. As the rainbows swirled all around him, he lost his vision, and all became dark.
