## Plot

Dave is confused as he sees Steve next to him, but not Diamond City. He gets even more confused when Steve doesn't say "bro". While they are talking, one male villager, one female villager and a dog ride towards them. Steve explains he is escorting the villagers to Villagertropolis.

Dave tells everyone that they were supposed to be at Diamond City, which was full of diamonds. The male villager digs into the ground, and immediately find diamonds. The villagers decide to start a diamond mine there, and Dave realizes he *is* in Diamond City, but even before it has been built. When he realizes this, he faints.

When he wakes up, Steve gives him pumpkin pie. Steve assumes Dave is a time traveler since he talks about things that don't exist yet. They talk a bit about the future and Dave asks him how he had lived so long. Just then, the male village, Arsalan, barges in.

Arsalan says that he had found a lot of diamonds. Steve says he, Dave and Jennifer can keep the diamonds as he only wants a few. Arsalan says he is going to hire miners to mine diamonds for them and asks them to protect the area while he does. They agree and chat a bit more about the future. Steve explains that he must not cause a time paradox and also says that he needs to stand close to the end portal when he time-travels again.

At sundown, the two of them decide to wait till morning to mine as mobs might attack. Dave asks Steve why he is quite idiotic in his time as compared to the past. Steve explains that he can live for a very long time and can respawn when he dies. But every time he dies, he loses a bit of himself. He says he has been living for more than a 100 years and so, is quite forgetful.

The next day, Dave decides to look for the end portal. He tells Steve that his future self does not know how to find it and hence, he cannot see it. Steve agrees and goes in their shelter. After Dave locates the portal, he calls Steve and they dig for a few hours before they find the stronghold. After exploring it and finding the portal, Dave gets ready to time travel when Steve's dog, Fang comes there and starts barking. Steve thinks it is about Arsalan and Jennifer and the three of them run to see what it is.

They rush out of the pit and see a group of illagers carrying Arsalan and Jennifer in a prison carriage. Knowing that it would be hard to kill all of them in combat, Steve decides to make a trap, having a fake layer of grass with TNT below it. Dave says that some of the mobs would still remain but Steve says they can take them.

Steve keeps his hand on the button to active the trap. Dave hears the illagers talk about visiting a mansion nearby with a powerful spider goddess who lives there. Just then, they walk over the trap. Steve presses the button, and only one evoker, some vindicators and the ravager carrying the prisoners do not fall in it.

Steve and Dave attack the remaining illagers. They take out a lot of them with arrows before they are spotted. Soon, all the mobs are taken out except for the ravager. Steve and Dave shoot it with many arrows before they finally manage to kill it and free the prisoners.

Steve and Dave celebrate and Arsalan and Jennifer thank them for freeing them. However, their joy is short lived because a group of illagers drags Steve into the pit. Dave gets ready to jump in and save him, but then the illagers kill Steve. The illager group tries to get Dave but he hits them and they fall into the pit. Arsalan, Jennifer and Dave sadly go back home.

Arsalan and Jennifer are quite sad that Steve is dead, but Dave is not as he knows Steve will respawn. However, when he goes to the house, he does not see Steve. He looks far and wide but is not able to find him. A disheartened Dave thinks that maybe Steve has been lying about being able to respawn.

The next day, Dave sees Arsalan making a statue of Steve, to commemorate his role as one of the four founders: Arsalan, Jennifer, Deif (Dave) and Steve. He has lunch and then leaves Arsalan and Jennifer. While on his way to the end portal room, he finds Steve chopping a tree. They talk a bit before Dave goes to the end portal room, wishes to go to the time right before Carl died, and presses the button on the purple ender pearl.

When Dave arrives, he sees that his past self has been knocked out by Carl. He sees two pigmen who carry his past self away then he reveals himself to Carl. He explains he is from future and what happened in the future. After hearing it, Carl suggests defeating Herobrine with potions when he comes into the portal room but Dave says it will cause a time paradox.

Dave quickly makes a Nether portal and then lights it. Then the two of them quickly place wither skeleton skulls on the withers and step into the portal just as Herobrine walks into the room. While in the Nether, they drink invisibility potions and then walk out of another portal. They decide to go fishing and have fish for dinner.

Dave and Carl watch Past Dave and Porkins from behind a tree. After Past Dave time-travels, the two of them step out of their hiding place and Porkins is confused. He does not understand how they came back right after they left but is overjoyed nevertheless.

Dave talks to Professor Quigley about the time-travelling pearl. She asks him if it worked, and he says it did. He also asks her how Steve is and she says he's fine. Just then, Steve enters the room and Dave asks him if he would want to join him on his quest to beat the dragon. Steve says that he prefers to travel solo and also talks about how to make eyes of ender. Dave asks him how he knows and he says Alex told him. Alex says that she thought it was fine to tell him since he is a friend. Dave also asks him if he remembers Arsalan but Steve says he once fought a bad guy named Arsalan. After talking for some more time, he gets on his horse and rides away.

Dave looks at the construction of New Diamond City, which being made from wood and stone. Mayor Birchwood joins him, and they look at Herobrine in his cage. Dave sees his eyes are open but the mayor says his scientists have told him it is perfectly fine. Dave offers to store him somewhere else but the mayor declines.

After talking to Mayor Birchwood for some more time, Dave goes to look at the ruins of Diamond City. He sees that only Steve's statue and that it was being filled in with water to make a lake. Simon walks up to him and says that it is going to be named Daif Lake, after one of the four founders. Dave realizes he is Daif, except his name has gotten slightly muddled.

Two days after that, Sally tells Dave, Carl, Porkins, Robo-Steve and Alex she needs to return to Greenleaf. The others understand but just then, Porkins says he is leaving too, to lead one of the new pigmen settlements. Alex and Robo-Steve also announce they are leaving; working in New Diamond City. Only Carl says he will stick with Dave and the six chat and joke for a long time.

The next day, the duo get ready to leave. The mayor asks if they can stay but they say they can't. Many villagers come to bid them farewell and Porkins, Alex, Robo-Steve, and Sally bid tearful farewells. Then, amidst cheers from many villagers, the two of them leave.

## Epilogue

Herobrine watches the villagers gawking at him. He wants to kill them but cannot, in the vat of potion. He feels his strength regaining though, and knows it is only a matter of time before one of his servants comes and sets him free.
