Ep. 1: Silverfish Solutions


(In mid-May, everyone in Minecraftia live in peace. At one particular house, around nighttime, Sky and Dawn are seen watching TV together as the lightness of the television slightly brightens up the room. Butter is seen sleeping in his dog bed with a chew toy in his mouth. Since there was no else around and the dog was sleeping, Dawn was feeling a bit in the mood...for some "quality" time with her husband. She leans over to Sky, who in responds, wraps an arm over her. She places a hand over his chest and starts drawing imaginary symbols over his chest).

-Dawn: (lustily) You know, Sky, since there's nobody around here with us and Butter is asleep in his bed, how about you and me "get busy?", if you know what I mean.

-Sky: No...what?

-Dawn: (Seductively) You know...?

-Sky: No, know what?

(Sky looks at her as she starts getting a bit annoyed. He thinks through for a while until he finally gets what she's trying to tell him).

-Sky: Oh! I see what you mean. Uh...okay!

(Sky and Dawn kiss passionately. Dawn moves herself up until Sky is lying on the couch and she's top of him. As they are smooching, Sky runs his hands down to her waist as Dawn grabs him by the collar of his shirt to deepen the kiss. But before things can get any hotter, a small hiss is heard across the room. The two move their lips from each other and look. A Silverfish is seen skittering across the the living room).

-Dawn: Ugh, a Silverfish?

-Sky: Don't worry, I got this.

(Dawn moves off of Sky as he gets up and grabs a nearby iron shovel. He walks back over to the Silverfish as it stops and looks up to see Sky with the shovel held in mid-air).

-Sky: Eat iron, you little bastard!

(Sky swings the shovel down, but he misses. The Silverfish skitters away, but Sky runs after it. The Minecrafter chases the pest around and around the sofa as Dawn looks around herself as her lover attempts to squish the invader. Then, Sky starts pawing the floor of the room with the shovel, trying to hit the Silverfish. The hits only cause damage to the floor and shake a few nearby vases to the edge of their tables. One of the items is shook to the edge of a table. Dawn sees this and runs over to save it from falling. She lunges for it and barely catches it in her hands).

-Dawn: Sky, be careful! My mother gave me this vase!

-Sky: I'm sorry, but this stupid Silverfish won't stay still!

(Sky continues to slam the shovel, trying to hit the mob. During the chaos, Butter wakes up from his bed and looks to see his owner chasing something. He gets up and walks over to Sky, who stops swinging the shovel and gets another idea).

-Sky: Butter, go get the Silverfish!

(Butter looks over to see the pest. He growls and runs after it. The canine chases the mob around into the kitchen. Sky and Dawn run after them. When they enter the kitchen, they are shocked as pans and plates are scattered everywhere as the Silverfish jumps everywhere and Butter is desperately trying to catch it. But due to the dog's claws, he slides across the quartz floor with each stop. Butter does a slide and slips until he crashes into the trash can, throwing trash everywhere and covering Sky and Dawn with it. The Silverfish crawls into one of the cupboards. Butter shakes himself off and looks over to see Sky and Dawn covered in trash as well. The dog whimpers and lowers his tail. Sky shakes himself off of the trash).

-Sky: It's okay, Butter. You didn't mean it. I'll take it from here.

(Sky sneaks over to the cupboard with the Silverfish and quickly opens it. Instead, an avalanche of plastic dishes comes crashing down on Sky. In a pile of containers, Sky pops his head out and sees the Silverfish. It jumps onto his head, off his head, and scurries out of the kitchen).

-Sky: Okay, we're going to have to think of a plan.

(A few minutes later, Sky is seen setting up a trap in the living room, consisting of a box, ruler, some string, and butter).

-Dawn: Sky, how is a trap armed with butter gonna help us catch the Silverfish?

-Sky: Dawn, trust me. No one can resist the beauty of butter. Hurry! Let's hide!

(Sky and Dawn hide behind a wall, the other end of the string held tightly in Sky's hand. Butter walks up to Dawn and paws her leg).

-Butter: Bark! (Whimpers)

-Dawn: Don't worry, Butter. We'll catch the Silverfish in no time.

(But then, a thud is heard. Dawn turns around to see Sky gone and the box flattened across the floor. Dawn looks around for Sky).

-Dawn: Sky? Sky!

(Dawn then becomes a little suspicious of the box and decides to investigate. She walks over to it and lifts it up. Sky is seen, happily eating away at the butter).

-Dawn: Sky, you fell for your own trap!

(Sky looks around and realizes the situation unfolding).

-Sky: Oh, dang it all! Okay, time for plan B.

(A few minutes later, Sky is seen placing a bucket on top of the kitchen door. However, instead of water, it's filled with bricks. He carefully moves back and waits in silence).

-Sky: Just wait. When that Silverfish tries to sneak in here, it'll be crushed by all those bricks.

(After a few seconds pass, something opens the door. But instead of the Silverfish, it's Jerome, who is unaware of the bucket).

-Jerome: Hey, guys. What are you all-

(Jerome's sentence is cut off when the bucket of bricks comes crashing down on his head. He collapses to the ground, groaning in pain. Sky and Dawn gasp, run over, and move the bricks off of the Minecrafter).

-Sky: Dude, are you okay!? Look at my non-existence hand! How many non-existing fingers am I holding up?

-Jerome: (dizzy) Duh...eight?

(He shakes his head and gets up).

-Jerome: Ugh. Sky, what the hell? Are you trying to kill me?

-Sky: No! We're trying to catch this Silverfish that snuck into our house.

-Jerome: And...you tried to catch this Silverfish by smashing it with a bucket of bricks?

-Sky: Hey! It was either that or a bucket of corrosive acid...and I'm pretty glad I chose the bricks cause if it was acid and you were exposed to it, you would be on a trip to the hospital. Anyway, can you help us?

-Jerome: I don't know...the last time I helped you with you, I was at the edge of a cliff and you pushed me off.

-Dawn: Well, at least you landed into that lake.

-Sky: I was trying to see if the mod I was testing would work.

-Jerome: And that mod was...?

-Sky:...Defying gravity mod?

-Jerome: (sighs) Fine, I'll help you.

-Sky: Okay. Let's move on to Plan C.

(A few minutes later, Jerome and Sky are seen clinging to the ceiling with swords. Dawn is seen hiding behind a table stand with Butter next to her. The kitchen door is slightly open as Sky and Jerome wait quietly for the Silverfish to come out. A few seconds pass, and then, the mob appears out of the door and cautiously looks around for any threats. Sky whispers to Jerome).

-Sky: (whispering) Jerome, now

(Sky and Jerome let go and land on their feet. The Silverfish is caught off-guard and scurries away. The two Minecrafters chases after the pest. It crawls across the wall as they furiously swing their stone swords at it. Then, the Silverfish darts to a small hill-shaped hole at the ledge of a wall. Sky and Jerome stop in front of it).

-Sky: You're not getting away that easily. Jerome, help me lift this wall up!

(Sky and Jerome grab the very end of the wall and lift it up with all their might. When they get the ledge wall above their knees, they look down and see the Silverfish, armed with a hammer).

-Sky: Ha! Got you, you little punk!

(Then, the Silverfish takes the hammer and smashes Sky's foot).

-Sky: Ow! Yeow!

(Sky lets go of the ledge wall and hops away with his hands over his left foot. Jerome tries to keep the wall up, but it collapses, trapping his hands and making him scream painfully. On the other side of the wall, the Silverfish starts hitting Jerome's non-existing hands 10 times each. It ends the hit with a hard thud to his left hand. Jerome screams and pulls his hands out of the wall. They're both throbbing in pain. He growls in his mouth as he runs off, comes back, and places a block of TNT next to the hole. Sky and Dawn walk up and are shocked).

-Sky: Jerome, what the heck?

-Jerome: TNT will destroy anything! This Silverfish won't stand a chance!

(Jerome takes out flint n' steel and ignites it. They all run away and wait for the explosion. But then, the Silverfish chews its way out of the wall and pushes the block with a swipe of its tail over to the Minecrafters. They panic. Then, out of pure fright, Sky takes the TNT and stuffs it down Jerome's mouth. Sky shuts his mouth and holds it as Jerome covers his ears. Then, a muffled explosion is heard from Jerome's stomach. Sky lets go of Jerome's mouth, who coughs up a cloud of smoke right into Sky's face).

-Sky: Oh, good Notch! What the heck did you eat!?

-Jerome: (wheezing) TNT, you buttcrack!

-Dawn: Look, there goes the Silverfish!

(The mob slithers out of the living room and into the kitchen again. The others look in disbelief).

-Jerome: Sky, please tell us you have more plans.

-Sky: Oh, I got a lot more.

(69 failed plans later...)

(In the early afternoon, the Minecrafters are seen exhausted and the entire house is a mess with dozens and dozens of plans gone wrong).

-Sky: I give up. We're...we're never going to get rid of this Silverfish.

(Butter comes walking in and greets Sky with an eagerly bark).

-Butter: Bark! Bark! Bark!

-Sky: What is it, Butter?

-Butter: Bark! Ruff!

-Sky: You think that you found a way on how to catch the Silverfish?

(Butter shakes his head up and down. Sky gets to his feet and kneels down next to the canine).

-Sky: Explain it to me.

(Sky brings his ear close to Butter's mouth as he makes a series of whimpers and sort barks. Sky gasps a bit as he moves away from Butter. He gets up and turns to Dawn and Jerome).

-Sky: Guys...I think we have found our solution.

(10 minutes later, the Silverfish is seen eating away at the garbage. But then, the kitchen door opens and Dawn walks in. The Silverfish looks up and sees her. It is just about to run away when Dawn stops it).

-Dawn: Wait, little guy. I want to show you something.

(The Silverfish eyes the being suspiciously, but decides to go along with what she wants to do. Dawn kneels down and asks the creature a question).

-Dawn: Little fact; did you know that if your hand is bigger than your face, you're an alien?

(The creature thinks about Dawn's fact, then decides to test the fact out. It moves one of its tooth-pick legs and covers the center of its face. Then, Dawn smacks the leg into the creature's face harder. The creature rubs its sore spot on its face as Dawn laughs loudly and runs away. The Silverfish wants revenge for falling for the trick, so it chases after Dawn. Dawn runs out the front door and leaves it open for the Silverfish to escape from. Dawn runs out to the front yard and stops next to a tree. The Silverfish hiss angrily as it has Dawn cornered to the tree. But before it can attack her, a cage made out of iron bars comes down at the creature. It tries to escape, but it's no use. Above the trap, hiding in the tree is Sky with Jerome, holding a rope tied to the cage. They cheer as they climb down. Sky grasps the handle of the cage and holds it up to his face with the Silverfish).

-Sky: Looks like the joke's on you!

(The Silverfish lowers its tail in defeat. The others join in and look at the mob).

-Jerome: Well, what do we do with it now? I'd say we kill it!

(The Silverfish softly yelps. But then, Sky gets another idea).

-Sky: Not so fast, Fluffy. I think I have another idea in mind.

(Later on, Sky is seen at the city dump with the Silverfish).

-Sky: Your new home, little guy. You'll have all of the garbage here for you to eat.

(Sky opens the cage and soon, the little Silverfish leaps out and happily makes itself at home. Then, it turns and waves its tail at the Minecrafter, as if of saying 'thank you'. Then, it disappears in a pile of trash. Sky sighs contentedly and walks away from the dump. The day passes calmly into the night. Later on that night, Sky and Dawn are seen sleeping together when a hiss downstairs awakens Dawn. She looks over and shakes her lover awake).

-Dawn: Sky! Sky, I heard something downstairs.

-Sky: (drowsily) Ugh...fine, I'll go take a look. It's probably Jerome sleep-eating at our house again.

(Sky heaves himself out of bed and grabs his trusty butter sword. He heads downstairs and flicks on the lights. Then, the most unbelievable and most unexpected thing is seen right before his eyes. A few dozens Silverfishes are seen scurrying across the living room floor. In both shock and anger, Sky lets out a frustrated scream).
