## Plot

The story started with Ivan begging for money in the streets of Block City. He only got two emeralds, and those were taken away after a woman took them away because of Ivan's "bad behavior". He went back to the basement where he and other illagers lived. He was starving, but his friend Zara gave him an apple. Ivan ate it happily.

Then, some diamond-armored soldiers entered the illagers' basement and said that illagers had been banished from the city, and whoever broke the rules would be arrested. They left Block City, and then a creeper scared them. All the illagers ran away, except for Zara, Porthos and Ivan. Porthos grabbed Ivan just in time, before the Creeper exploded. Then, zombies attacked. They threw apples at the zombies, dazing them, and allowing to escape. Suddenly, a pack of spiders attacked them and chased them. Zara, Ivan and Porthos jumped in a lake, even though Ivan couldn't swim. But, spiders could swim. So, Zara grabbed him, and pulled him out of the water. But, the spiders still chased them. Then, the sun rose, and the spiders stopped chasing them. They still saw the walls of Block City. Then, they saw some illagers and ravagers. Zara, Ivan and Porthos joined their group, the General's Boys.

Five years later, the illagers attacked Block City. Ivan had grown up, and he was taller than most illagers. Zara wanted to steal money from a bank in Block City for revenge, because they king kicked them out and made them an exile. And so, they placed TNT to explode the bank, and steal the emeralds. When the TNT exploded, a bell rang, and they quickly stole the emeralds. They found some chests, full of the green gems. They packed the ender chests with them. Suddenly, ten diamond-armored soldiers rushed towards them. Ivan was dominant in the battle, and he kept hitting the soldiers, making them go flying. He soon defeated all the soldiers.

They made a hole in the wall of Block City, and galloped away. Everyone was impressed of how quickly Ivan defeated the diamond-armored soldiers, and Ivan himself was also impressed. When they came to the outpost, they told everyone that the mission was a success. They ate dinner while in the outpost, and they went to sleep. Ivan dreamt about being promoted by the Captain.

The next day, Ivan talked to the captain. The Captain was impressed by Ivan's skills, so he gave Ivan a dangeous mission. They bought some weapons and armor from the weapons shop. After that, Zara presented Ivan to her soldiers and said he would join them. Ivan wondered what the mission was, and Zara said **assasination**.

Zara said they were going to assasinate a wandering trader. Ivan didn't want to kill the wandering trader, but the General said they had to. Ivan still didn't want to kill the wandering trader, so when they approached the wandering trader, Ivan yelled that they were targeted. The wandering traders ran away. Zara was mad that Ivan blew their cover, so she and the group attacked Ivan.

Ivan fought back and defeated all the illagers, and Zara was the only one left. Zara fought Ivan, and he was defeated. However, Zara decided to let Ivan escape. Ivan did, and ran into the forest.

During nighttime, there were spiders, skeletons and zombies. Suddenly, an enderman started attacking him. Then, more endermen emerged from the trees. Suddenly, an enderman with blue skin came in and teleported Ivan somewhere else.

Ivan was teleported to a house made of lots of different blocks. The house was the blue enderman's, who introduced himself as Barry. Ivan asked Barry to join his journey. He accepted, but began to regret it when Ivan told him that a group of illagers wanted him dead (as Barry was connected to him, so he surely would be assassinated if captured).

Barry was not good at using a sword, so Ivan taught him how to use a sword, but Barry kept failing. Then, a group of illagers appeared in the horizon. The leader had a white eyepatch. Ivan knew it was the General's Boys, so he told Barry to teleport them away. He did, and they appeared in a cave. They heard creepers, so Ivan told Barry to teleport out, and they teleported to the open plains, next to the army. Ivan was captured, and was waiting to be killed, when Captain Ajax gave him a chance to redeem himself. He told him that he would have to find a person named Steve.
