MCSM Season 2
Hero in Residence (Episode 1) Edit One year has passed since the last season ended. Lukas narrates a novel on Season One as per the Order's various adventures. As he finishes, Jesse, Axel and Olivia provide feedback for the novel. Jesse's new intern, Radar, appears, notifying Jesse and his/her friends of an upcoming adventure with Petra, and Jesse's Founding Day preparations (an annual celebration of Beacontown's founding). However, Axel and Olivia have to prepare for Founding Day in their respective cities (Boom Town and Redstonia), and Lukas desires to work on his novel. They part ways, and Jesse and Radar venture into Beacontown, helping citizens prepare. Afterwards, Jesse heads to the mines to meet Petra, who wants Jesse's help to capture a "mystery creature" running through the cave system.

The two race to apprehend the mystery creature, which turns out to be a llama. After successfully obtaining it, they stumble onto a large underground chamber, with a sand pyramid in the middle; perched atop is a prismarine glove/gauntlet. Jesse investigates it, and it suddenly clamps onto Jesse's hand. He/she cannot get it off, and it occasionally whispers Jesse's name. The sand pyramid suddenly falls apart, revealing a bottomless pit (which Petra dubs a "heckmouth") underneath. Jesse and Petra cover it up with dirt, and the three make their way back to the surface. Petra reveals that Stella, the leader of a nearby city called Champion City, "borrowed" Petra's valuable golden sword; she forces Petra to go on quests, such as finding her runaway llama (named Lluna), before it will be returned. They head to Champion City to take Lluna to Stella, who considers Jesse to be her lifelong rival (although they had never met before). After Petra returns Lluna and demands the sword back, Stella reveals it all to be a scam and refuses to return the sword. She heads into her treasure room. Jesse and Petra secretly follow her, and after threatening her, she surrenders the sword.

Petra and Jesse begin to walk back to Beacontown, when they suddenly see the "heckmouth" blow through the ground and spit out charged creepers. The two cover it up again, and continue running for town, where Petra knows of a legendary treasure hunter and adventurer named Jack; she thinks he can help Jesse with the "heckmouth" and the gauntlet. When they arrive, he is visibly shocked to see the gauntlet, and admits that he found one once; upon his (and two friends of his) following it to a very dangerous Ocean Monument, both of his friends were killed. He at first refuses to take them, as he is the only one who knows where it is, but Jesse convinces him. Jack tells them that an ancient magic block, called the "Structure Block," is hidden in the monument, and is the key to closing the pit. (This is a real block in Minecraft, used by level creators to load building instantly.) Jesse, Petra, Jack and Nurm (Jack's cartographer villager friend) leave for the Monument.

As they travel, Jack informs them of how the ocean monument was supposedly created by "The Admin," a being of infinite power that allegedly created the world. (Although most people think this is the cause for many illogical occurences in the Monument, Jack does not believe it.) (This is a reference to how most Minecraft servers are created and controlled by an "Administrator," who can do anything he/she desires to the server.) They put on water helmets, and swim to the monument. Inside, the four complete various puzzles and impossible tasks, one of which suddenly frees an old adventurer named Vos from an obsidian prison. As it turns out, Vos was one of Jack's two friends who were thought to be killed in the monument when they were last there. Upon reaching the center of the monument, they find two Structure Blocks. When Jesse picks one, though, the Admin, in the form of a giant prismarine statue, abruptly appears and tries to kill Jesse. Jesse and friends narrowly escape, and get back to Beacontown just in time for Founding Day. They use the Block to close the pit, and after a brief celebration of their victory in the middle of the town, the giant prismarine statue reappears, ridiculing Jesse's attempts to get away from him.

A post-credits scene shows Lukas at his house working on his novel, but when he sees The Admin approaching Beacontown, he suits up and rides off to help Jesse.

Giant Consequences (Episode 2) Edit The Admin meets Jesse at Beacontown, and forces him/her to fight him (using a giant clock to turn day into night, inviting monsters as well). Jesse attempts to use the Structure Block to help, but when he/she drops it, the Admin swallows it. Sometime later, the Admin grabs Jesse and prepares to swallow him/her, but suddenly Lukas distracts him (with an arrow to the face), causing him to drop Jesse. He/she then notices a weak point on the back of the statue's head, and climbs up to it; when he/she punches it, the Admin falls over and "dies," dropping the giant clock. Jesse uses it to bring the sun back up.

The townspeople begin rebuilding the damaged buildings. The clock is too big to move from the center of town, so Jesse tells either Lukas or Radar to watch it for now, while the other helps with repairs. Some time later, Jack, Vos and Petra accidentally reveal that they are soon going on an adventure without Jesse. Suddenly, snowflakes begin falling in Beacontown; the town is not in a biome capable of snow, so Jesse suspects the Admin - and with that, the Admin reappears in the form of a snowman. The Admin makes the clock disappear, turns the time to night again, and gives Jesse a challenge: Beacontown will remain dark, snowy and surrounded by hostile mobs until Jesse reclaims the giant clock, which the Admin says is "at the tippy top of my awesome, fantastic, super-deadly icy palace of despair" nearby. The Admin wants Jesse to become his partner and friend if he/she succeeds. Jesse, Petra, Lukas, Radar, Jack and Vos head toward the ice palace. On the way, the group encounters Lluna and Stella, with Stella angry about the snow; upon finding her "rival" can do nothing about it until they get to the palace, she and Lluna decide to tag along to "keep an eye" on them.

The Admin presents several challenges in the way of the clock. With Vos failing to make it (falling into a water pit below) and Radar/Jack doing sub-par, the Admin insists that Jesse go it alone and dump his/her lacking friends - "the losers are supposed to lose!" He puts Radar/Jack into a difficult vertical maze, and claims that if he can make it out alive, without Jesse, he would be set free. Radar falls into the water, and Jack falls to the ground, even when Jesse helps them. The group finds a wall with a room opposite it, and mine through it (cheating). They use Shulkers to levitate up to the clock from this room; this is also where they find Radar (and Stella, who also failed) trapped in ice. Jesse melts Radar's ice, but he/she may choose whether to save Stella as well. Jesse also chooses whether Petra or Jack should get the clock in the meantime. She/he makes it up to the clock and destroys it, turning the world back to normal time.

The group prepares to get out, but Jack insists on finding Vos. Lukas, Radar and Lluna leave. Suddenly, they see Vos nearby, who acts very suspicious meeting them again. Jack begins to question him. Vos then transforms himself, revealing the Admin's true, human, form. The real Vos was, in fact, killed on Jack's first visit to the Ocean Monument; the Admin posed as him trapped in the obsidian prison. The Admin is angry with Jesse for insisting on helping his/her friends and not personally getting the clock (and also for mining the wall earlier). Stella then convinces the Admin to let her work with him, as while she lost, she "has a terrific attitude." The Admin teleports Petra/Jack away as his new partner, as "technically [he/she] was the winner," and sends Jesse and Jack/Petra "to a place where you'll never see the light of day... ever... again."

In a post-credits scene, an anonymous man introduces Jesse to what appears to be an underground prison, and a brief shot of a maniacally laughing female prisoner is seen.

Jailhouse Block (Episode 3) Edit Jesse finds himself/herself at the aforementioned prison - the "Sunshine Institute" - where the Admin sends people he detests (and their friends). Directly after meeting the warden (a man named Warden), he/she makes an escape attempt with Jack/Petra (who was sent as well). However, since the institute is surrounded by an obsidian maze with dangerous mobs, they are quickly apprehended and sent back to the "institute." Jesse is taken to Warden's office, where he/she learns about the institute; Radar and Nurm have been made prisoners as well to help make sure that Jesse and Jack/Petra behave. Warden used to be one of these friends, and wants Jesse to follow in his footsteps. He proceeds to torture Radar in order to coerce Jesse into becoming an "associate" (guard). Jesse may accept or deny this offer, with no real consequence except that he/she either continues to be a "guest" (prisoner) or becomes an associate. Either way, he/she accompanies Radar to the "Mush Room," where guests are forced to make mushroom stew, from very rare mushrooms, to survive.

Radar is very tired and hungry on their arrival at the Mush Room. As an associate, Jesse, with the help of another associate (who is, incidentally, YouTuber bigbst4tz2), makes Radar a cookie; as a guest, Jesse fights other guests to make him mushroom stew. Suddenly, an alarm is heard, announcing the (eventually failed) escape attempt of "Prisoner X," a famed escape artist who apparently knows her way through the obsidian maze. Jesse and friends resolve to find her and enlist her help.

As an associate, Jesse wants to get promoted and be entrusted to guard the lower levels, where X's cell is; as a guest, he/she wants to cause trouble and be sent down to the same cell area. He/she investigates another guest's cell, and finds a mooshroom that gave this guest unlimited mushroom stew. Once the Warden finds out, he asks Jesse to shear the mushrooms from the mooshroom, changing it back to a regular cow. He promises Jesse to be an associate of the lower area, the "Zombie Mines," if he/she obeys. If he/she shears the cow, Jesse will be promoted to an associate in the Zombie Mines; if not, he/she, as a guest, is sent down to the same lower levels. Jesse's friends come with him/her.

X's cell is just beyond a barred door located in the Zombie Mines. Jesse gets a lever from Stella, who is an associate in the Mines, to open X's cell, and can convince Stella to escape with him/her or not. As soon as the cell is opened, the Admin shows up, firing Warden for not keeping Jesse in line. He then forces Jesse and Petra/Jack (whoever "was technically the winner" in Episode Two) to fight to the death, but they instead cooperate to try and attack the Admin. Annoyed by this he abandons the Sunshine Institute, but not before announcing his plan to impersonate Jesse and earn the trust of the inhabitants of Beacontown. He takes Stella and leaves.

The group, now with Petra/Jack, proceed to Prisoner X's isolated cell. Along the way, Jesse, Nurma and Lluna are separated from the rest. Jesse convinces X, whose real name is Xara, to help them out. (Xara was seen briefly in Episode Two's epilogue.) Unfortunately, Jesse is forced to leave Nurm or Lluna in her place; unless at least one pressure plate in her cell is stood upon, TNT is activated. The group meets up again, takes weapons, and proceeds to the maze. They find and confront Warden in front of the maze, where he says that he vowed to never let Xara free - she used to be an Admin herself, and was stripped of her powers when she "tried to destroy [the current Admin]." Xara then kills him, and explains that she is "not the villain here." They start to run through the maze, defeating monsters. Xara continues to reveal that she and a third Admin, named Fred, fought the current Admin - named Romeo - for control of the world. Fred was killed and Xara was stripped of her powers, and imprisoned in Romeo's Institute.

At the center of the maze, a tall diamond tower is found. Xara explains that there is a passageway beneath the tower and that they need to dig into the bedrock to escape (the prison is at the bottom of the world). She also explains that the secret to ridding Romeo of his abilities, discovered by Fred, lies there as well. Upon walking down the dimly lit stairs, Jesse can see a giant Enderman approaching them.

In a post-credits scene, Romeo, in Jesse's form, gives the Order of the Stone's Amulet to an armored assailant, ordering him to hunt down Jesse and his/her friends (having told the assailant that they are the fakes).

Below the Bedrock (Episode 4) Edit Xara brings the group to the "Underneath," the original overworld created by Romeo, Fred and Xara. She explains that after Romeo killed Fred and imprisoned her, he covered it with bedrock and created the overworld Jesse and friends came from. Upon reaching "The Oasis," Xara's ruined home city, she is overwhelmed with grief and anger for Romeo's betrayal, murdering of Fred, and destruction of their former home. Jesse promises to bring justice upon Romeo. Xara shows them a broken portal frame, which she says allowed the three to visit each other; an object from the second overworld, or closely related to Romeo, would make the portal send them to the surface. Jesse asks her to rebuild the portal, and she tells them to head to "Fred's Keep," where Fred supposedly kept the object that could remove Romeo's powers. While riding a minecart track to the Keep, the giant Enderman separates everyone; Jesse and Jack find themselves stuck dangling on the side of a cliff. Wild scavengers find them and offer to help if the two give them their weapons. If Jesse agrees, the two are lifted to safety; if Jesse refuses, he/she eventually pulls himself/herself up, but Jack falls, supposedly, to his death.

The friends regroup and continue their journey. They find the Keep to be inhabited by a society of people, the "Friends of Fred," who revere Fred as their former protector and leader, because he built a village for them to live in peace. Jesse, with some difficulty, enters Fred's house, and discovers that the object is found in the cabin that Fred, Xara and Romeo lived in. The leader of the Friends, Binta, gives them a compass that Fred claimed would always point towards his home, in exchange for Jesse agreeing to help the society to escape to above the bedrock. If either is present, Jack and/or Nurm stay behind, for various reasons; the remaining group begins to follow the compass.

Jesse, Petra and Radar (and possibly Lluna) are suddenly stopped by the armored assailant seen in the epilogue of Episode Three. After a brief battle, Jesse convinces the assailant that he/she is the real Jesse; the assailant takes off his mask to reveal that he is none other than Ivor. He explains what Romeo has done in Jesse's form, convincing everyone that "Jesse" simply obtained the special powers of this "Admin" that he/she defeated. Ivor gives Jesse the Order's amulet to power Xara's portal, and leaves to report back to Romeo.

The trio (quartet) find that the Admins' cabin is located in "Romeoburg" (the Admins each had their own cities - The Oasis, Fred's Keep and Romeoburg). They also find that, for some reason, Romeo had hid the cabin behind a game for him and his two friends to play. Jesse, Petra and Radar (leaving Lluna outside) complete this game and enter their cabin. There they learn that later on in their friendship, Romeo became obsessed with keeping the trio together, and that this created tension that resulted in his betrayal. They find a journal left by Fred (who apparently anticipated his murder) for Xara, containing a keyword - #POTATO451 - and a set of instructions on how to defeat Romeo. Petra becomes emotional, realizing how similar her position is to Romeo's, and worries that the new Order's friendship will end in a similar way. She confesses to Jesse that she is conflicted; while she does not desire to stay in Beacontown, she resents the idea of being separated from Jesse. Jesse may promise to follow Petra wherever she goes, or to stay behind and wait for her to come back (or he/she may remain silent).

The friends return to The Oasis and find that Xara has fixed the portal. Jesse signals Fred's people (and Jack and/or Nurm) with fireworks that they are ready to leave. He/she gives Xara the diary, and she swears vengeance on Romeo; depending on Jesse's past actions Xara may abandon the group here. Everyone at Fred's Keep reappears (Jack and possibly Nurm re-join as well). Unfortunately, the fireworks also attract the giant Enderman, which causes chaos. Realizing that the Enderman is targeting him, Radar offers to use himself as bait to save Fred's people, letting them through the portal. Jesse must choose to either leave Radar behind, bringing the Friends of Fred, or to abandon the Friends and force Radar to come along. Jesse activates the portal with the Order's amulet; those going through find themselves outside the Old Order of the Stone's temple. Atop the temple, they can see a very different-looking Beacontown in the distance.

In a post-credits scene, Lukas, having gotten back from the Ice Palace, appears in the Order Hall and greets "Jesse," asking where everyone is. Romeo's eyes glow red and the scene ends.

Above and Beyond (Episode 5) Edit Jesse, Petra, Jack, Radar/Binta and Nurm/Lluna use the mines to enter Beacontown in secret. In the town they discover Romeo (In Jesse's Form), Stella, Axel, and Olivia preparing for JesseCon, a narcissistic Festival for himself. If Xara left to abandon Jesse she will attack Romeo and get killed by him. If Xara stayed behind Romeo will blow up Champion City in front of Stella as an example to them.

They deduce that the Giant Tower in the middle of town is the "Primary Terminal", the place or object in the diary's instruction, but they will need a plan to get there. Jesse reveals himself/herself to Axel and Olivia, who follow Jesse to Jack's shop where they discover its contents were looted. They discover the Elytra Wings in the looted shop, only to see Ivor appear in the shop afterwards (having rescued Nurm/Lluna) and they start planning on how they are going to get to the "Terminal".

After successfully enacting their plan to fly to the tower they discover that Lukas has freed Romeo's prisoners and have banded together to create the "New Ocelots". After proving to them that he's/she's the real Jesse they head to the roof only to discover that Romeo is in his office. Jesse can then choose to attack him or talk to him. Regardless of the choice Romeo determines to give up on the world. He decides it deserves the same fate as the old world. As he is encasing the entire world with bedrock, they make their way to the "Terminal Space" portal on top of the roof.

In the Terminal Space they discover a sealed door. The door is sealed with a puzzle whose answer lies within the keyword #potato451. After solving the puzzle, they are gifted with a hologram of Fred that gives them a Golden Gauntlet that can take away Romeo's powers, but not before Romeo arrives immediately afterwards. After Jesse punches him with the Gauntlet, Romeo immediately discovers that some of his abilities are gone.

Jesse and Romeo fight each other with Romeo changing locations and forms with each defeat. After removing Romeo's powers completely, "Terminal Space" begins to crumble, and Jesse can choose to leave Romeo behind or bring him with the group. While the "Terminal Space" is crumbling around them, The Giant Prismarine Colossus glitches out and then starts attacking anything indiscriminately. If Xara and Radar was left behind, the latter will arrive, still being chased by the Giant Enderman, which will then kill the Colossus allowing everyone to escape. Otherwise Romeo will sacrifice himself so that everyone else can leave. After the destruction of "Terminal Space" the bedrock in the sky disappears. If Romeo and Xara both survive Romeo will do his best to try and make up for what he did, starting with Xara and the surviving citizens of the Underneath.

While Beacontown is being rebuilt, Ivor says that he will try to reconnect with the old Order of the Stone. Lukas, Radar, Jack, and Nurm decided to stay in Beacontown to help them rebuild. Depending on Jesse's relationship with Stella and Lluna, Stella could ask him/her to take care of Lluna in Beacontown while Champion City is being rebuilt, Lluna could choose to stay with Jesse against Stella's wishes, or both will leave. Axel and Olivia decide to return to their communities, but Petra decides to venture out.

The player can then choose to leave with Petra or stay in Beacontown. If the player decides to leave with Petra, Jesse can assign Radar to be his/her temporary replacement or allow the citizens to decide a new leader. If Lluna stayed with Jesse, she will also accompany Jesse & Petra on their new adventure. However, if the player stays in Beacontown, Radar will tell Jesse that he checked the mail chest and found some mail. The first letter is about Aiden (absent since season 1) wanting to redeem himself. The second letter is sent by someone under the initials “WP” (White Pumpkin; absent since season 1) saying "Look out".
