Four months later
"Steve, I want to go to the end."
"You what?!" Steve asked, surprised.
"I want to go to the end."
Steve stared at his best friend. Was Alex serious? The end? It had only been four months since the Nether adventure. Wasn't that enough for her?
"Alex, you can't be serious," he said.
"I already talked with Tal and he's letting us use the portal for free," Alex replied.
Steve was even more surprised at that news. Talk was normally a really cranky guy, but now he was all soft-hearted? The old villager would never let them go through his portal. Maybe he was just as anxious to find out where the creepers were as they were.
Although it had been four months, the creepers were still nowhere to be seen.
