Legacy Timeline (Earth-2012)

The Legacy Timeline is a timeline revolving around an ARG Obscure Legacy Console edition of Minecraft.

## The Beginning

Developer Steve and Developer Alex where working on Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition, when they noticed several strange glitches in the programming. From the undead not burning in daylight, to several errors in the game, and, most importantly, Herobrine joining Legacy Console. In a panic, the 2 devs ended up scrambling enough code for a rift between worlds to open up, causing the code to try to fix itself with Herobrine as a malevolent glitch, messing with things behind the scenes, as well as traveling through dimensions. The devs fell into the Minecraft world as some sort of gods, having access to the code behind the seeds and ending up in a Legacy Console survival world - one of the only 3 groups that got a hang of the game.

## The Mysterious Duo

A group of 8 players where playing on their Minecraft World together after recently getting the game from a beggar, who acquired it after a mysterious explosion in a building nearby sent a disc of the game flying, landing nearby the Beggar, who then sold it for $26 dollars to a family and a few friends of them. They where building a mansion, but their game glitched mysteriously, and a deep, dark, sinister laugh was heard from the Console. Everyone was confused and a little bit afraid, when they noticed white eyes floating in the sky. One of the teens instantly recognized it as Herobrine, and shot it with his bow. The eyes disappeared and two mysterious figures appeared in the darkness. When they saw it, it was 2 more players, but something felt... off. These duo clearly had a history, and seemed more linked to the game than anything else. An unforecasted storm happened in the outside world, and lightning struck the Console directly. It overheated, and exploded into several pieces, also knocking the group far back. Following up by that, the roof was knocked off of the house and other hosues nearby via a giant wind, and the pieces of the Console began to fly around. One of the 2 people still conscious after the Console exploding, Bill, noticed this and began to crawl away from the Console. Pieces of different things flew all around, and a tornado spawned out of relative thin air. This, combined with the weather of the world itself breaking, seemed to indicate that Herobrine had escaped into reality after the explosion, especially due to the fact a Steve-like figure was by the window when the storm started. The tornado caused the already flying pieces to create a several blocks in a Nether Portal like shape, eventually being lit by a flying flamethrower. The tornado didn't destroy the mysterious portal, nor pick up any of the unconscious in the family. The energy of the storm caused the portal to suck up all of the people nearby, before closing due to the game disc itself flying into the portal, creating a paradox.

## Joining the Game

Bill woke up, laying face-first on the ground, and pick himself up back on his feet. He took a look around, and rubbed his eyes. "That can't be right. How come everything is a cube?" He took a few steps around, looked around a few more times and, once noticing a disc, finally took it in; "I must be in Minecraft!" He thought. He noticed the landscape around him, and saw a mansion in the distance. He then realized that not only was he in Minecraft, but he was in his own Minecraft world. But several things were wrong. There was a broken Nether Portal behind him, something that wasn't there before. On top of that, the mysterious duo was in the background, and he made direct eye contact with them. Not only that, but several pieces of his house from the real world was here, as well as many things from the real world that didn't belong, including a sofa and broken television. The devs he had made eye contact with prior began to slowly walk towards him, and, feeling scared due to not knowing them, Bill picked up the TV and threw it at them, causing it to Shatter further. "Well, that's definitely broken now." One of the devs said. Being afraid of them even further, Bill used a lot of his might and threw the Sofa at the Devs, who promptly grabbed it and threw it into the distance. Bill asked, "What do you want? WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!?" The two explain away what was already explained in the prologue of this timeline, and that they met a simular fate to him. They also explain away what occurred with Herobrine, and how if the portal where to reopen for too long, the link between worlds could be disastrous. Bill then wakes the rest of his family as they try to find a way out. However, one instance caused a major event.

## The Commanding Cube

Thr family and teens where wandering around, and while in a stronghold, found a Beacon like purple cube. The devs informed the group that in order to be activated, they would need a dragon egg. So, the quest to kill the ender dragon began. Through several shenanigans, they managed to obtain the eyes of ender and enter the end, defeating the dragon, and obtaining the egg. From there, a Bill dropped the egg into the Commanding Cube, and it began to vibrate and shake around, and ended up causing the end portal to fly apart into a strange portal to another realm. One of the devs began to try and code the situation, but a rift opened to another world. Trying their best to escape from the rift, the cube malfunctioned more and more, eventually leading to their Minecraft world fusing with the 1.13 tutorial world, and several mini-game maps. From there, the cube exploded and unleashed 5 Shards of the cube across the world. The family theb explored around the world, where they noticed Herobrine and the glitches took a more direct role, and attempted to get to their world. Eventually, they gathered the parts of the cube and opened the portal back to Earth. However, Herobrine threw TNT into the situation, and completely shattered the cube, causing instability and storms. This leads to the climactic encounter, also known as Discontinued.

## Discontinued

The instability caused by the destruction of the cube, combined with the multiple realities all caused the breaking of this segment of the Multiverse, and disasters ravaged several worlds. A battle with Herobrine was to occur, floating through breaking realities and having Herobrine enter the real world, causing almost inevitable destruction. Bill and the Devs leaped into action, taking advantage of the fusion of worlds. The moon began to fall towards Earth, as bricks, blocks, and objects flew between fusing dimensions. With the fate of the world unknown, Bill dived towards a strange cube, quickly followed by Developer Steve and Developer Alex. The Devs informed Bill that this was an alternative version of the Commanding Cube, and if destroyed, would cause the end of the fusion of worlds. They fought valiantly to get to and break the alternative Commanding Cube. Eventually, the disc flew in the middle and began to override the universe. A massive storm raging several unnatural natural disasters led to the ultimate destruction of all dimensions. The Devs informed Bill that the only way to save the Multiverse was to break the Commanding Cube, although that would most likely lead to the end of his life and for sure the Foundation Element. Bill, in a move of heroism, didn't care, and broke the Cube, causing the end of the storm, and knocking him back into a building, severely injuring him, giving him a coma, and rendering him with memory loss. The final effect of the breaking of the cube was the destruction of Earth 2012 (Kind of).

## Aftermath / Destruction of Legacy

The Destruction of the Cube led to the destruction of The Legacy Minecraft copies and world. That being said, although the rift closed, several elements from alternative dimensions still remain, such as Elytras and Blocks still being in the real world. Bill suffered severe dimentia and broke both his arms and legs. While his arms healed, his legs ended up being paralyzed. Eventually, he managed to regain his memories due to the efforts of his family, and wrote journals to keep track all of the adventures he'd been on. Due to the coma he'd been in, he had aged severely, looking quite old for his age, fitting his more wise moral. He eventually published his memories, and shared his tale with the world. He would eventually succumb to his wombs after another 12 years, due to severe stroke like symptoms. This also marks the end of contact with Earth 2012, due to the death of the character that was barely holding the world together, most likely leading to the fusion of that world and the few remains of the Legacy world, which would end contact. That remained the case until The Hacker Wars, which lead to this world branching off into the Hybrid Timeline.
