About this ebook
The prophecies on music discs suggest that only Stevie and Alex, plus Maison, Destiny and Yancy, their friends from the human world will be able to defeat Herobrine. But the prophecies also warn that one of the friends will betray the rest, putting all the worlds at risk. Tensions run high as the group must figure out how to save the world while they try to discern the traitor in their midst. Maison, It isn’t long before the traitor is discovered.
Stevie and Alex find themselves separated from the others and must first journey into the Nether to find a special treasure that will enable them to confront Herobrine. The clock is ticking as they put their heads together to survive in the fiery depths of the Nether. Monsters are waiting for them around every corner and it won’t be much longer before they come face-to-face with Herobrine, who has become more powerful than ever.

Down into the Nether - Danica Davidson
CHAPTER 1
WE HAD TO HURRY, OR ELSE THE MONSTERS would get us.
There were five of us kids running across the Overworld, trying to get to safety before the sunset. As soon as it got dark, monsters—better known as mobs—would spawn and search for their prey.
Do you think we can make it to the portal before dark?
cried my best friend Maison.
With any other portal in the Overworld, we could just stop and build it. But this was a special portal we were going to, because it was the only one that led us to Maison’s world, Earth.
If we hurry,
I said, hoping I was right.
Yancy and Destiny, who were beside us, were also from Maison’s world. The last person in our group was my cousin, Alex. Alex, like me, had been born and raised in the Overworld, and she’d only recently learned that other worlds existed.
It hardly seemed real, but just last night the five of us had all worked together to fight Herobrine. Everyone in the Overworld knew about Herobrine, though they thought he was just an old ghost story for kids. We knew better. Nightmares about Herobrine and music discs with prophecies had taught me that Herobrine was real and that all he wanted was to ruin lives and destroy worlds.
When we fought Herobrine at his temple lair on top of a mountain, he disappeared. Did he disappear because we had defeated him, or was he hiding and would come back to attack us later? That’s what we didn’t know. And because of that, we were terrified!
At least I got Ossie back, I thought, pulling my cat close. Herobrine had stolen her, the way he stole other people’s most prized possessions, and we’d saved her on the mountaintop.
There’s the portal!
I said.
The last rays of light were creeping down the horizon as we caught sight of the house the special portal was kept in. I pushed open the door and we all crammed into the little house. The portal sat right before us, glowing red, green, and blue in the middle.
Phew,
Yancy said, huffing and puffing. He put his hands on his knees. After all that fighting and traveling, I am going to sleep well tonight.
We can rest tonight, but we need to get back together tomorrow,
Alex said, in her usual take-charge manner. If Herobrine is still out there, we have to plan and be ready for him.
Do you want to come to our world with us?
Destiny asked, concerned. It might be safer there.
It was a nice offer, but there was no way Alex and I could go to the other world right then. We needed to get back to my home and try to find my dad, because he’d been brainwashed by Herobrine. He had falsely believed that my friends and I were the ones causing all the damage that Herobrine actually caused. Like the other people in the Overworld, Dad had suddenly turned mean and suspicious, because that’s how Herobrine changed people. If Herobrine was really defeated, hopefully Dad would be okay now.
Alex grinned and shifted the bow and arrows she had on her shoulder. Oh, don’t worry about Stevie and me,
she said. I know it’s getting dark out, but I’m not scared of any mobs.
I didn’t feel as confident as Alex at all. I looked down at the diamond sword I held in my hand. I’d only recently started to get good at fighting mobs, and I still made plenty of mistakes.
Then just be extra careful,
Destiny said, and gave Alex and me a quick hug good-bye.
Maison took my hand in hers and looked at me with a serious expression. It’s going to be okay, Stevie,
she said. I’m sure your dad will be waiting for you back at the house and he’s just fine. And if Herobrine is still out there, you know we’ll find a way to take care of him. We’re your friends, and we’ll get through this together.
I took a look at the others around me. A few months ago, I never would have guessed that I, Stevie, an average eleven-year-old boy in the Overworld, would find a portal to a new world and make all these new friends. There was Maison, who was smart and brave and my best friend, even though we were from different worlds. There was Destiny, who was a little shy sometimes, but who always tried to do the right thing. There was Alex, who loved adventure as much as the next person loved a good mushroom stew, and who I was finally getting to really know. And there was Yancy, who … who …
Toodles,
Yancy said in a singsong voice, waving his weird fingers at us. I still had a hard time taking fingers seriously, even though all the people in the other world had them. I still thought that fingers looked like little squid tentacles attached to hands.
Yeah, see you,
I said, not very enthusiastically. I still felt uneasy about Yancy.
He was the whole reason Herobrine existed.
Yancy used to be what you’d call a cyberbully.
Because Maison’s computer acted as a portal to the Overworld, he’d hacked her computer and tried to have a zombie takeover. His cousin Destiny helped Maison and me stop him in the end, and afterward he went into therapy and said he was a new, better person now. Which I had a hard time believing.
Back in his cyberbullying days, he had put a mod of Herobrine into the game. That mod gained consciousness and became the Herobrine we were fighting. Yancy kept pointing out he’d just put Herobrine in the game as a joke, and he hadn’t meant for Herobrine to gain consciousness and become an evil monster bent on destruction.
But there was another reason why I was scared of Yancy.
Remember those music discs that told prophecies about Herobrine?
One of those prophecies said
