Claire POV-

Jordan was in her vault that morning going over the loot she had gained from the purge and not really mourning what she had lost. Her efforts during the purge were probably the most successful she had ever had.

The purge had been perfect, a total success and a great comeback.

Plus, what day would be perfect without a gift from her god. Although she needed to go to great heights (No pun intended) to get it, it was still very special, even if it did seem to be broken.

During the purge she had gotten a message to climb up a structure near Tucker's old house, at first she though it was Ianite himself as a gift from Dianite, or a trap that was gonna make her fall 50 feet.

Luckly it wasn't the trap.

Instead she found a small clear bag with sugar.

The climb had been very stressful because she though Tom would do everything in his power to stop her, fortunately she had Tucker to watch her back, though at first she wasn't so sure their efforts were worth it since it was all just for sugar.

Once she retrieved the sugar the priest offered his services to help her use it as its was supposed to have very special properties. Unfortunalely there was some trouble with it not being compatible with her aura or something so the priest decided to take care of fixing that for her.

Jordan was sort of relieved once he went back home, she was afraid he would mention something about...Dianite. Lucky nothing was said.

Though her new bit of sugar was one of the highlights of her day, she had won something incredible. She managed to get Dianite's armor and sword....

Tom was devastated and had been ranting about it as soon as the sun rose. The purge was now the only time any of them could steal and kill so she had won it fair and square, and Tom knew that, all he could do now was whine and wait for the next purge.

"Haha, tom stop being such a sour loser!" Said Sonja through the world communicator.

They were all busy doing stuff that day, Tucker was out of town on a mission with Mianite and the wizards returned back home for supplies for her tree. The modesteps and Nade were nowhere to be seen as always and Champwan and the priest were practicing some spells outside of the island in a nearby village.

That left her, Sonja, and Tom to talking all morning, still ranting about yesterday's purge.

All was fun and well as they teased and joked until the world communicator's voice rang in her head.

Dianite has arrived to the World of Mianite.

All of the sudden she could hear Tom fake crying which made her and Sonja laugh nervously.

"You're gonna ben big trouble!" Laughed Sonja

"Hello, hello good sir" Tom said nervously

"Someone told me they needed me" said Dianite with a strict voice.

Jordan was still at her vault so she didn't know where Dianite was, hopefully he wouldn't get mad about her stealing the armor and blow up her vault...

They didn't get to meet last night because she had a sleepover at Tom's, otherwise she would have probably had to tell him about the armor herself. Dianite had tuned in for a while but left to do who knows what.

Maybe finally relocate Ianite.....

"I need you! My lord....I lost your armor" Tom said

Long seconds of silence passed.

"OH. You did?" Was all the lord of the nether said

"Seriously Tom! Are you gonna pin this on Jordan?" Sonja said privately to her and Tom

"No! It was won fair and square I get that!" Tom said to them

"It was during the purge" Jordan said openly to all, reassuring him that it was fair

"It was good, but it wasn't good enough to stop the blades of Sparkles!" Said Tom

A few seconds passed before an angry voice ran through her head.

"You lost it....YOU LOST IT!"said Dianite

Oh boy she did not want to be Tom right then...

"To a member of Ianite! How dare you!" The god screamed off the top of his lungs

A member of Ianite...she didn't know weather to feel offended or not.

"No! It was taken from me during the purge..." before Tom could finish Dianite cut him off screming once more

"How DARE you!"he said

"It was taken fair and square. The greatness of the armor didn't seem to beefen me" Tom said in fear

"Beefen!!!!?????" Sonja and Jordan teased at the same time.

Even in serious situations, she had learned that everything could be joked about in the world without offending anyone. It was a way to make things seem less serious. So in a way, her and Sonja's jokes could actually help Tom.

"It was a two hit. I tried my lord" Tom reassured

Both Jordan and Sonja couldn't help but laugh, though it probably wasn't helping Tom it was just two funny.

"I t..tried"Tom mumbled

"ttried!!!!!" Both her and Sonja echoed back

"Are you deeming the armor I crafted using my blood as not good enough?" Dianite asked

"Would you say that about your god?" Sonja teased

"No sir! The power of the land seems to have grown! Our powers have fallen behind with the times" Tom said with a wounded tone.

Jordan put on the Dianite armor and headed outside to light up the area around her house while all that drama was going on.

As she finished, the drama went on, making her laugh as she cleaned up yesterday's mess even though she should have probably gone over to help Tom.

Sonja kept laughing, unable to go on with her teasing...

Now it was Jordan's turn to tease Tom "Wait....are you calling Dianite weak"

"No! Your little bitch god is though!" Tom said, trying to save himself

"He may be? Would you like me to prove I'm not?" Dianite said

It took Jordan a few seconds to realize that comment was directed at her, it wasn't until she saw Dianite floating towards her with fireballs that she realized her mistake.

The first fireball landed two feet next to her..thats when she began running for her life, asking questions later.

"No please!" She screamed

As more fireballs rained down on her she realized that Dianite was the one attacking her so she sent him a private message.

"Seriously Dianite! What the hell!!!!!!"

"You said we had to act normal in front of others. Besides, you called me weak..." Dianite responded back

"You've got to be kidding me!" She screamed back while she ran around her now burning lawn area.

"My poor torched up area!!!!!" Jordan screamed for all to hear in lament at her hard work being destroyed.

She had already died many times, death was not something to fear. Instead thinking of all the damage clean up became her current worry.

"Yes sir! Let me help! Give me your minions!" Tom screamed in glee, happy the attention was drawn away form him probably.

Jordan down the hill where her home was located and landed on top of the roof of Tom's vault.

Thats when Dianite stopped firing and just floated around smiling.

When she realized the safety that place could provide she jumped down near the front door just to find confused Tom standing nearby

"Did you just run into my house!?" Tom complained, he let out a big sigh and opened the door "Fine, get inside"

As soon as she got inside, accepting her best friends help, she heard the drawing of a sword. She turned fast, just quick enough to have the blade swing in front of her by a few millimeters.

Jordan quickly got her sword (More like Tom's sword) and attacked back. Every hit he managed to hit her with made no damage thanks to the Dianite armor she was wearing. All it did was leave dents but never got to her skin.

The fight go serious once Tom realized that despite being the assailant he no longer had the advantage and was taking too many hits to come out on top.

"What armor do you have on!!!!????" Tom asked

"What are you doing Tom?" Jordan teased as they continued to fight

"What armor do you have on!!!!!?????" He said before dying and his body disintegrated to its last death spot.

Jordan couldn't help but laugh at his sad attempt at killing her.

"You just tried to kill me? Wow..and its not even purge day!!" Jordan teased at re spawned Tom through the world communicator.

Through all the commotion she failed t notice that Dianite was inside the house with her until he spoke up.

"Sweet sweet death" he said winking at her as a subtle way to say hello

Meanwhile Sonja screamed in the distance "Trial!!!!!"

It had been an idea Jordan proposed during the purge, much like the trials from back home, she suggested that rule breaking be punished in a court of law. Most liked the idea, even Tom because he though it would be funny.

Though no court house was yet built, it was an idea that she though would help bring about more balance to the island in the long run, and hopefully prevent any more wars and revenge seeking adventures.

Still, she too found herself wanting a trial for that attempt on her life.

Tom could come back any moment, Dianite probably knew that because he hadn't approached her yet like he normally would.

Instead he just smiled at Jordan and then quickly teleported to her to give her a kiss on her forehead before going back to his old spot by the door.

She had told him not to show affection in the overworked as it was much more likely for them to get caught, but of course Dianite loved breaking the rules.

"Dianite rules!!!!!!" He screamed along with an evil laugh

Meanwhile Tom screamed frustratedly in the background....

"For the love of fucks!!!!!"

Jordan laughed and made her way out of his vault after taking Tom's valuables, proud of her victory.

In her moment of pride and ego boost Jordan said "More like Dianite just got rekt" then she paused realizing what she had just done "Probably shouldn't have said that"

Sure enough, Diane levitated in the sky making lightning rain below her....

Once again she found herself in need to run for her life, though she would just spawn back, she would lose the armor and lighting hurt like hell

"NO!!!!!" She pleaded to Dianite in between laughs as she ran, dodging the lighting by merely inches.

On the other hand, Dianite was probably enjoying himself, making his aim better by each trow.

Finally one hit, it hurt her but not enough for her to stop, it was like a prick of energy but she knew Dianite could do much worse.

"For the love of fucks on a stick" Tom continued to scream in the distance, still salty over his loss.

That made her laugh more, slowing her down and letting more powerful lighting strike her.

"One more?" Dianite asked once more, teasing

"No!No!" Was all Jordan could say as she was overwhelmed with both laughter and fear in those moments

A part of her knew he wouldn't harm her too badly, but the other knew he had an image to keep up, one that wasn't based on mercy and kindness.

So she continued to dodge her way through the lightning and fire until his aim began to slow down once Tom arrived back to the area.

He looked exhausted. When he found her, his cursing stopped and he began to complain.

"He told me that I had to start attacking you so I did"

"Did he tell you to kill me" Jordan asked, knowing very well that was something Dianite would do

"No he just said attack" Tom responded, making his way inside of his vault house.

Awww he did care enough about her to just have her be attacked not killed...

"And you failed him" Sonja teased

"So I just start attacking you and boom..I just get rekt" He joked

Jordan went inside with Tom and laughed as he frantically looked for supplies. Then Dianite joined them...

Without a warning he began firing fireballs inside at her. She dodged them all, doing her best to stay on her feet.

"if he starts breaking my base...." Tom sighed

Surprisingly the fireballs must've had some weird enchantment because nothing was being burnt and no marks were left behind. Thats when she got it...it was all an illusion.

They were fake fireballs, thats why they weren't burning everything. The ones outside were real probably because some damage needed to be shown...but the ones now were harmless to her.

He was just pretending.

Once he probably figured out that they were both on the same page, he changed his attitude.

"Judgement time...if you are worthy to survive my test, you may keep the armor you have so unlawfully stolen" Dianite said as she teleported away.

"I didn't unlawfully...what?!" Jordan screamed at the air

"Yeah! You stole the armor!" Tom joked along

"Dianite, explain to me how it was unlawful?" She said

"The armor is not mean to be worn by anyone else but a Dianite employee" the god responded

"An employee!!!!! Hahaha" both Sonja and her teased Tom

While they laughed and Tom complained, she heard lighting in the distance.

"Prepare yourself follower of Ianite" said Dianite before more lightning struck

After minutes of not hearing back from the god of the nether, Jordan and Tom had made peace and she began returning his items from her attempted murder.

She didn't have to give them back, but despite all the fighting between her and Tom, they could always go right back to joking and laughing. He was a friend she truly cherished, giving the stuff back wasn't too hard but he certainly appreciated it.

"Guys? I was strip mining in the middle of nowhere at a really good place....and I got teleported..." Sonja said perplexed

"What?!" Both her had Tom asked, stopping what they were doing.

Then suddenly Jordan was teleported to a sort of dome made out of obsidian, a material that was very difficult to break...that meant she couldn't break her way out seeing as she didn't have a diamond pick on her...

Up above her she could see Tom and Sonja in a room on the side of the edge of the dome with a large glass window for them to look down at her.

Diante appeared floating above her, spawning something by his side.

It was like nothing she had ever seen before! The creature he spared had three heads and a single tail, no arms. It was dark as night and floated around with dark particles floating around, pulsing faster and faster as the seconds passed by.

Thats when she realized what that was...a Wither....

"Oh god! Im gonna get blown up!" Jordan screamed as she ran to the opposite edge of the arena

"Dare to escape human!" Dianite said as he floated above her one the wither was lose.

Luckly Jordan had a bow with her and began shooting the Wither with the best aim she could.

Just as she began to land some good hits the wither probably decided it had enough and bagan to float away, far from the dome of obsidian.

They all looked at it go in silence, then the fear kicked in

"there is a wither on the lose!!!!!" Sonja screamed

"Ummmm" was all Jordan could say

That Wither was probably gonna blow up the whole island, and from what she knew from back home and what Tucker had told her... killing one of those wasn't exactly easy.

Jordan looked up at Dianite searching for answers but he looked just as shocked as everyone else. Guess he didn't exactly think things though and left out putting a glass roof over the dome to prevent it from escaping as it just had.

"Damnit" was all Dianite said before going after the creature

All three of them laughed at the god's failure as Jordan also attempted to get out once she heard Dianite attacking the wither in the distance.

She had to go see that!

"There is a wither on the lose...Im gonna get supplies" Tom screamed in fear, ignoring Jordan's current predicament.

Fortunately Sonja showed up to give her a hand and just in time too...

"Help me!!!" Dianite screamed

With that Jordan rushed out of the pit and ran ahead as Sonja stayed behind. In a few seconds she was standing in the area of chaos. The Wither was floating by the side of a mountain, Jordan ran down as fast as she could, careful to not trip and fall.

Once she was within hitting distance, she got out her sword and without a second thought, began fighting the creature. It was like something from a nightmare, dark as coal and very ash like almost as if it was made of dust. With every hit the creature let out more agonizing cries, slowly floating towards the ground.

Dianite was nowhere in sight, he was probably floating above her watching the events unfold. Whatever damage he had done to the creature it must have healed.

It was all up to her now, just a few more cuts and she knew it would die even though she was told no novice could ever kill one of those creatures she was hits away from doing so...

As she continued to hit, Jordan saw Tom running her direction in the distance coming to her aid, but it was to late....

The pain from the monsters attacks was bearable thanks to the Dianite armor she had on, it took most of the hits for her, but its durability wouldn't last forever. On the last hit before the Wither died, the energy blow actually pushed her back, nothing the deteriorated armor could do to lessen her fall.

Once Jordan got up and regained consciousness of her surroundings, she noticed a little bright star on the ground..like an actual star...no joke.

Tom was quick to grab it and do a little victory dance.

"Yeah!!!" He said as he kissed the mysterious star.

She did it...

What Dianite had done to try to test her had not only backfired on him, but she still prevailed somehow...hahaha.

"Did I do good Dianite?" Jordan mocked

"Excellent. Very good" he said, taken back from what she could tell

They all were in fact, their expressions on their faces said it all, what she had just done was impossible.

"I'm gonna talk to Ianite, see what we can work on"Dianite said

She still couldn't find him but she could tell he was somewhat impressed, what she didn't understand was what he said. Talk to Ianite?

"I want you on my team" the god said, like he had said many times before.

"Whoa, you just got invited to team Dianite!?" Screamed Tom in disbelief

Jordan had heard that proposition many times before and she knew that he knew what her answer would be. She would always be team Ianite.

"I WILL get you on my team" he said shortly after pinning her to the mountain by surprise.

No one else was around, Sonja and Tucker were out by where the wither had been killed, still in awe but she couldn't help but feel worried.

"Woah! Confidence!" Said Sonja

She could hear steps coming towards them slowly, without a second thought she pushed Dianite to the clusters of trees nearby as cover.

"What are you doing?" She asked to him in private

He laughed and brushed her hair back gently.

"Punishing you, I believe the priests discomfort was promised dear" he said

Oh right...she had been so tired after the purge that she had forgotten. Was that what it was all about, all the attacking for something like that!

"And you shall have it, but you don't have to risk our secret getting out to more people because ur salty!" She whispered back

"So, what about my offer?" He asked, kissing her forehead

"You know I will always be loyal to Ianite, I don't know why you even bother with that" she responded

Dianite laughed once more and teleported away
